in his position and will be missed from his accustomed seat around the council table with christmas coming this year on saturday in georgetown boking day will be observed on the following monday as a

yet and faces another operation in a few months but doctors have been well pleased with his condition and he has been able to get out of bed for a short time each day a prank which had such serious consequences for the above young man should serve as a grim warning that such apparatus is not to be fooled with and it is to be hoped that no one in town using such equipment will be tempted to play jokes orf fellow workers santa is coming again ab hab been customary for the past several years santa claus will come to georgetown on saturday december 18th the big event is planned for three oclock

urged to help make the draw as suc cessful as possible by buying tickets for this worth while cause whats your beef tpr bruce collins of camp borden in contribut ing his beef to this column says it is annoying to see the improper etiquette being used for flags which are flown in georgetown he points out that flags should be raised and lowered at the proper times and not allowed to fly day and night it is also proper to choose a suitable flog for weather conditions he adds and while large flags are fine for good weather they should be replaced by smaller flags on stormy windy days because large flags have been allowed to fly in the wind many of those on buildings in town have become tattered and discoloured the subject of a new flag for canada often comes up in the news why should people debate on colours and design etc for a new flag when they cant take care of the flag they now use jsantj s hunnetr guest speaker miss sybil bennett kc bramp ton was guest speaker at u niout- tntf of
