Editor AN INDIAN COMPLAINT The Advance was pleased to have It call one day last week from Mr Clvarles Jones, Chief of the Cap* Croker Indian colony. He was a.'- companiid i)y hi.s brother, Thonia.? P who keeps .Ktore at the Cape and whc stands hiph in the estimation of th<: community. With two other gentle- * men thoy were- returning from To- ronto, where they had been to inter- view the Department of Game anc Fisheries regarding the fi.shing riphts off the Cape Croker shore, where they claim, they should be allowed tc fish wiihout license. The Depart- ment, it seems, has ruled that they have no such rights. The members of the deputation seemed rather despondent over the treatment they have received. Both the Jones men are well educated, the Chief having had a good common school education and his brother, T P., having graduated from BellevilU. Business College and also Alberl College. One of their number was recently fined for illegal fishing off shore and the visit to Toronto wa-^ made to find out exactly what their rights were in that regard. The Cape Croker colony contains • population of the very finest citi- zens who did their full duty in war- time, a number of the enlisted men making the supreme sacrifice. ,We believe the colony earned more con- sideration at the hands of the gov emmcnt than it appears to be re- ceiving, in this matter, at least. Nominations Being Held November 24 Artemesia Township and Klesher- (on Village nominations will be held on Friday of next week, November 2-lth. and if more than the required number are nominated and tjualify the elections will l)e held on Monday, December 4th, the advertisement ol whic-h appears on another page. There is not much talk at the pres- ent time as to what positions will be contested or whether any new men will attempt election to the councils, but this will likely be remedied be fore nomination day. Both councils have gone through the year with the minimum of criticism of their action.t. They have lowerc-d the tax rate con sidcral>ly, which will be welcomed by the taxpayers this year. Nomimation (lay will finally tell what is doing in municipal politics. NOT WHAT THEY USTER BE! EDITORIAL NOTES Have we forgotten: No, never! yet the general public would be tempted to believe we had, judgng by the sil- ence maintained in Flesherton on Memorial day. Surrounding towns and villages all vied with each other in putting up some sort of memorial service, but Flesh^rton was silent. To say the least it was missed by many people. Officialdom was just a little neglectful of duty tliis year. Got Rid of the Barnyard Boarders In preparing for housing the stock for winter, all surplus work horses, finished beef cattle, boarder dairy cows or decidedly poor type heifers, old ewes and old sows should be cull- ed out and disposed of to the best advantage.

Why, I've seen a hot headed feller peel off his coat and threaten flick anyone what said what he said weren't the truth. I've seeii a feller have t' crawl out the back winter t' keep from being thrown ou*,. Word fights, fist fights, shoutin', cuss- in', pleadin', prayin'; whoops! What a time we had. Them nom'nations give us something t' talk about fer days. Then when 'lection day come round, they was plenty of fussin' and fumin' then. Hosses nigh wore out at the day's end, what with gallopin' here and there t' bring all the misfit and the unfit to vote. And then when the fight was finished and the winnei Was 'nounced what a cheerin' and back sl,appin', what a Jeerin' and teasin' â€" man, what a celebration. "Now things is diff'rent somehow. 'Taint like it uster be. Them fellers goes to the meetin' and stands up wan after t'other and says what fine fellers t'other feller is. Then they say what fine fellers they is an' what thoy done fer town 'n kentry and everybody says Hurray an' puts 'em all back in by 'clamation."â€" Exchange "Memories" By A. S. THURSTON UICHARDSUN: William E., born in Culgailh, Cumberland County, Eng- land, December 24, 1837. Died in Flesherton November 16th, 1921. He was married to Miss Graham who died about 1805 leaving one (Jaughtcr, 'Margaret/, WHp married Joseph (Wilkinson, and resides in Cul K'aith. William came to Canada about 1868, joinirg his brother, Matthew, in Fltisherton, where they bought out the store of Mr. Boulster general and drug combined and secured a permit from the Government to oi>erate a drug store. At tfiat time it was not necessary to have a diploma. He also attended the Veterinary College in Toronto, 1861), and followed that tvork for some time in connection with the drug business. A few years lat- er he returned to England and mar- ried Miss Sarah Newling of Mel bourne, Cambridgeshire, who came to Plesheron as his bride and who took a great interest in all her husband's undertakings and also of her family's, which coTisisted of one son and two daughters. She was also a very active member of the Baptist church which in those early years was in its infancy in Fleshertan. As their business increased the old store was moved away to be replaced by a large brick ome which is the present drug store, and has for years been operated by the son Charles (better known as Dick). The family consists of two girls and one boy. Of the two girls in the family, Florence, the elder one lives in Los Angeles, where she has held a splendid position in a large busi- ness firm. Josephine, better known as "Josie" remaraed at home to give her invalid parents the care needed in their declining years, as they were both invalids for some time before they died especially t^e mother, whc was very frail before her death on March 22, 1928. Josie married John Latimer of Edinburgh, Scotland. They are now living in Toronto and Charles N. of Flesherton. Tobacco To Minors Complaints have recently been made of minors coming into posession of cigarettes, either by buying them or having them bought or given to them by other persons. Section 3 of the Minors' Protection Act states that "no i)erson shall furnish to a child under eighteen years of agt cigarettes, cigars or tobacco in an> form. Sub-section two of the samt section provides that such sul)-section one does not apply to a sale to a child for his parent or guardian un- der a written re(iuest or order of tht parent or guardian. This meant that any person giving or selling tobacco to persons under 18 years ol ago are liable to a fine of not less than ?2 nor more than fSO. flood business doesn't make a suc- .â- essful .salesman, but a successful salesman makes good business. Charles N. spent his early boyhood at the old public school when not playing "hookey" to fish or hunt, which he sometimes does even yet. After absorbing all the knowledge to be had at public school (so he thought then) he went to Woodstock College for two years. Charles was very interested in boxing, and in his reminiscing some very exciting bouts took place at the 'college, but 'Like father, like son," he then wont to Toronto and attended Pharmacy a year, securiing his diploma as drug- gist and chemist. After almost a tiuarter of a century of bachelor liliss he married Miss Zella 'frimble, and seeming to have forgotten his earlier ambdi^ons regarding boxing, has settled down to "Live happily ever afterward." He is a Tory, Mason, Forester, member of United church, also the town council on which he has served about fifteen years, being secretary for Hydro Commission the greater part of that time.

Nomination and Election TOWNSHIP OF ARTEMESIA THE GASOLINE INDICATOR Significant is the fact that gasoline consumption in Canada is proceeding at an increasing rate. There is no single gasoline gauge to show con- sumption by_ motor vehicles, but a column of figures at Ottawa serves the puriK)se very well. Last year. Canada used 50 million gallons more gasoline than the previous year, al- though the total number of motor vehicle registrations decreased 7.29( and the new car registrations showed a drop of about .WCi. This year, gasoline consumption is not only be- ing maintained but new car registra- tions show no such decrease as there was in 1932. These two factors tak- en together, indicate no likelihood ot a decline in motor vehicle niileage. Mileage, particularly in the case ot five and ten-year-old cars, meami in- evitable replacement. On the strength of gasoline figures alone, the sales potential for 1934 is encouraging. Talk about marWe halls, but onr lireference is a farm kitchen, a really lieep pumpkin pie, a pair of old slipp- or.^ and a snooza of an evening on the o!rl ffifa behind the stove. Public notice is hereby given that in pursuance of the Municipal Election Act a meeting of the Electors of the Township of Artemesia will be held at the Village Hall in Flesherton be- tween the hours of One (1) and Twi. (2) o'clock in the afternoon of Friday the 24th day of November, 1933, foi the puri)ose of nominating persons t( fill the offices of Reeve, Deputy Reeve and Councillors to serve during the year 1934. If more than the necessary number of candidates shall be nominated foi any particular office and a poll shall be thus rotiuircd, the same will be opened in the several polling sub-div- isions at OP near the usual place? foi holding the election therein, on Mon- day the 4th day of December, 1933, at the hoar of Nine o'clock in the forenoon and will remain open until Five o'clock in the afternoon to- take the votes -of the Electors. Dated this 15th day of November 1933. â€" W. J. BELLAMY.
