Harris, for 50 years editor of the Burlington Gazette, at a testimonial dinner at the Estam- inet. The veteran newsman, who has served as school _trustee, reeve, mayor and county warden during his half century of com- service, was presented silver tray to mark the occasion. Speakers during the banquet included Hughes Cleav- ef, A. S. Nicholson and M. C. Smith Guide Fund Jumps Donations toward the new Girl Guide hall passed the $1,600 mark last week as several volun- teers turned out to lay the cement block foundation. It is hoped to lave this phase of the work complete before frost hardens the ground. Busy Brigade Five alarms in three days kept Burlington firemen busy last week-end. In one instance a brigade unit was held up at the CNR. crossing, necessitating the breaking of a freight to allow the reel to pass. Damage was res- {ricted to a minimum in the trail- er blaze concerned, dispite the de- lay. Some $200 damage resulted when fire broke out in the bed- room at the home of George Wil- son, Aldershot.
