South 'â-  Bruce disappears part of the riding j going to North Bruce and part toj North Huron. Grey will continue tc have two ridings, north and south, i with the present boundaries. Baseball Meeting Baseball is coming to a head in Flesherton this week and it is likely that a team will break out if the present plane go through and the boys are enthusiastic enough about it. A meeting to consider organizing is tc be held in T. J. Fisher's barber shop on Thursday evening and all young fellows and others interested in the formation of a team are urged to attend. There Is all kinds of mater- ial with which to field a team. Many of the boys have been playing soft- ball for the past several years and should do well in baseball, as they did at the abbreviated game. There is said to be considerable money on hand to partially outfit a team, so there should not be any trouble to field a team. Let's be out Thursday night boys, and get baseball started in Flesherton again. Tests show tha^ people sleep bet- ter nude. And notice how hard it is to get the bare facts out of some bunk.

Bennett I FLESHERTON, ONT. Highway No. 10 Is Impassible At Preseot Highway No. 10 has been a bog during the past few days and traffic has been practically stopped, owing to the condition of the road by the frost coming out. Sunday evening a team of horses was used to draw cars which were trapped in the deep mud holes just north of Inistioge church. The entire road from Mark- dale to Dundalk is in a deploral^jj state this spring, about the ^yorst they have been for years. Monday motor trucks were not allowed to travel through as the danger was too great, and it would mean more of the road being cut up. There was another bad spot in the highway just north of Fkshciton, but cars could negot- iate it in safety. The county high- way to Durham and Singhampton is in very good condition, but the traffic is not as great as on Highway No. 10, and the road has a better chance to settle after heaving with the frost. Monday evening Highway No. 10 was closed to through traffic when the road became practically impass- able and cars and trucks were routed through Durham and south on the Garafraxa. It is reported that a truck was embedded in the road at Inistioge and five teams were used to move it, only to have the truck mire again. Tuesday morning a report came through that the high- way between Mt. Forest and Arthur was in bad condition and that trucks could not run through.
