Thurston, Publisher Fle«hert<m 9, Dumllak 5 / iFlesherton Majors took the Duu- daik Bears in their own den Friday iHC;ht to the tune of 9-S, in one of the re^lar kind oif games these two teams display, wide open and plenty of ' thrills. The game was only one minute and ^5 seconds gone when G. Chard scored on Boyd's nice pass, but at the five minute mark JVIcRae tied the score for Dundalk. Then Flesh- erton went ahead with a goal by Jti£Fs, who took the disc at his own blue line, beat his opposition and didn't give McCauley a chance to save with a blistering sholt,, and the other by Gord. Chard aIon«. At 2:26 in the second period Dun- dalk nicked their second goal, Ha%v« from McRae. Flesherton added two more, Turney from Milne, and Jack Larwrence, on neat combination work around the net from Turney and J. Milne. Stafford then notched Dun- dak's third goal from McRae an:! Haw, and with eleven seconds left in the period Juffs added Flesher- ton's sixth when he shot about fiteen feet out, then slipped and followed his own shot into the neit. The last period was as fast as the other two and Ehindalk added two to make the score 6-5, Camrpbell from Springgay and Stafford, and Inkster from Campbell. Dundalk had shot their bolt by then and Flesherton coasted along from there in, with three goals, W. Lawrence from J. Lawrence, Boyd from W.

Flesherton 9, Rocklyn 4 The Central Ontario Leag^ue was opened in Flesherton Saturday night with a good crowd on hand, Rocklyn being the visiting team, and they went back home with the score 9-1 agamst them. The game was not cspecilaly exciting and after the opening period the outcome of the gam* was never in doubt. This was the second in two nights, the team having played in Dundalk the night before. The Majors scored in 43 sec- onds, Boyd from G. Chard, and 26 seconds later Falls tied it up. This was followed by goals by Juffs from Milne, and turney alone. Wheeler then made the score 4t2, where it stayed until the end of the period. In the second the locals added three moie, G. Chard fro-n Poyd, Aci't-on alcne on a pretty play frcii centre ice and Boyd again counted from G. Chard's pass. In this period Rooklyii did not count, and relied mainiy or. trying to k-;€p the Major players outside their blue line. The third period was only 1:51 old when W. Lnwrenee got tnc sevtnrli goa; from Boyd and No. 8 '.va-' count- ed by Juffs from Turney and Milne. Rocklyn then came back into the pic- ture v.hen A. Woii.r-uust aimed a il.-'t "n the direct'! ,? of Andrews' citaop' and Hank Bast Jeflortcd it into the net. We have an idea how Hank felt. A. Wodehouse then added the fourth for Rocklyn on H. Wodehouse's pass, and with two min- utes and 38 seconds left to play the scoring ended when Inffs sank the pass from Jack Lawrence. Flesherton's line-up was th." same as in the Dundalk game.

Financing Of Grey County Federation Of Agriculture^ Financing is always a bug-bear to every organization. Bruce County Federation has been successful in having every township in their coun- ty collect two-fifths of a mill on the the assessment of all their farmers to finance their Federation of Agri- culture, the Directors of the Grey County Federation of Agriculture have decided to contact all township councils in Grey to ascertain their attitude toward this proposition. In the discussion of this matter the Direcors pointed out that surely after what the Federation of Agri- culture has accomplished for farm people, they would not hesitate to try to finance their organization ft the same are per year per farmer m Labor organizations pay per menilbor per month, as the average amount each farmer would pay at two-fifths of a mill on their assessment would be $1.50 per year. Grey County Federation has bee:: financed of late years by some town- ships collecting one-fifth of a mil! on their assessment, while othor townships granted an e^ual amount of one-qfth of a mill on their qssess- j ment and by a grant of Sl,500.on I from Grey County Council. From this amount the County, Pi-ovincia! Canadian and International Federa- tion of Agriculture mu-st be financed and as the work for all of this or- ganization is growing, 'he need of more finances is very imporant if farm organizations are to compete witb other highly financed organiza- tions of Industry and Labor.

The stove pipes from the kitchen stove took fire and the long stretch of pipes made the fire ertrentely hot. The chimney then took fire and the blaze backed up into the pipes again. With the heat and coniderable smoke it was thought the blaze might get out of control and Mr. and Mrs, Alcox summoned the Markdale firemen. Many others also answered he call and before t^n minutes had passed large numbers had gathered at the house to lend assistance. Fire extinguishers were used and water was handy, so that the fire was soon under control. If the occupants had been away the house no doubt would have been lost. A lovely new collapsible \vheel chair has been donated by Flesher- ton Branch of the Candaian Legion to the Centre Grey General Hospital at Markdale. The hospitaJ will now have a wheel chair available on each floor.

The subject of the law of supply and de- mand was discussed at some length. The Forum agreed unanimously th.it the farmer should not change his production plans as the prices of his products vary, and that a marketing board should be set up to dispose n I farm supplies and it would bo the I duty of this board to find suitable markets. Prices should not be chang- ed without a two-year notice to the farmer, the reason for this being that it takes a period of time for a fanner to ada^n himself to varyin.; prices, and this cannot be done with- out some idea of the prices hp shoul.i expect to t:eceive. Floor price;- should be set on farm products. There is no natural factor whk-.l interferes with the law of supply u.nd denwind. The intei-ference is caused by the so-called middlemar.

FnllOwing the, discu.ssion. Forum turned attention to eu ' an.l lunch was served. "You don't have to be an artist to appreciate the serious effects, both physical and psychological, that col- or has. on our dialy lives," said Miss Ruth Hamilton, famous color con- sultant of the Pittsburgh Paint Com- pany in Flesherton town hall Tues- day evening, before a large gather- ing" of district ladies. By using col- or combination you can beautify your home and ax the same time make it restful and relaxing, thys pron->oting the comfort, well being and happiness of the family. Miss Hamilton revealed that the Pittsbm-gh P^int Company first de- veloped the principle 'â- â€¢'' color dyna- mics which utilizes the energy in color, to be applied in indtistries, offices, hospitals and schools. Here it was proven that color has actual power, capable of positive eifects on peoplj, influencing their efficiency. These same principles can be used in the home. "What do people shop for when they buy?" asked Miss Hamilton. "K women doesn't buy perfume, yoa knoiw, she buys allure and sophistica- tion." You don't buy a golf club or a fishing rod or a hockey stick â€" you buy sport, relaxation. We don't buy things, we buy ideals â€" self e- spect. home life and happiness. We don't buy paint, we buy cleanliness, durability, pirotection. color styling and contentment. Yes, color is here to stay. It can be applied easily and accurately to get a desired effect in the homes as well .as in any bus- iness. But color can be a source i>f trouble, this specialist stated. She showed, for example, how a butcher shop had it's wall painted a bright yellow. This color osjused a blue after-mirage which was carried over to the color of the meat, causing it to appear puj-ple. Business fell off rapuTly until a color specialist dis- covered the trouble. He prescrbod a blue-green color scheme which would enhance the color of fresh meat, .\fter the shop had been re- paint sales began to climb. Mfis« Hamilton's address was very interesting and she closed her talk v.-ith the thoug'ht that many people hardly realize the real effect which color has on their lives until they seriously do some planning with pro- per color schemes. This interesting lectiu'e was spon- sored l>y Richards Home Furnish- ers, local authorized dealer for Pitts- burgh paints. CARDS OF THANKS .V GCK)1) IDEA .\ report from St. Thomas states that two thousand walnut trees that were planted along the highways of that county twenty years ago, bore nuts this year. They grew fron< seedlings furnished by the Provinoiai Government riurseries and the plant- ing project was sponsored by three Elgin svr.-it\ club.s. We can think of no more worthwhile project nor one of such enduring value, and we heart- ily recommend the idea to service clubs in Grey County. Such tr«os only will provide nutts, but tih°.v adoi-n \he hig-'^ways and provide sliade and shelter. â€" Hanover ?o.^t •a 'â- k^ No Such Thing As An Equalized Assessment In view of the fact that Chesley is now being reassessed in an effort to obtain an "i-qualized assessment," a. reader has handed The Enterprise the following editorial comment re- cently made by the London Free Press: '"The basis of assessment may- be on land vu!u-s, or Imiiding values, or on rental and revenue values, or oi: rental and i-evenue angles â€" a» in England â€" but the core of the problem will always be the judgment or lack of it, of the assessor and thi courts of revision. There is no such thing as a completely equalized as- sessment. It is a term in law, a technical phrase. The best we can do is try to equalize assessments^ which are opinions as to values.. About the only people who reap an immmediate benefit or profit frotn equalization schemes are the high- priced experts and socialists called in to arrange the basis of the pro- gram. On the other hand, as cities grow, property values rise and there has to be some approximate estim- ate on which to base taxation."
