MN Members of the Board of Education were gratified to have the verbal re- port of the inspector of Collegiate In- stitutes and High Schools, which in high terms praised the new school and indicated that the building would when completed be given first class rating. After being so many years 'on the verge of being cut off by the sovernment, this change to the rat- ing of a first class school is particu- larly pleasing to the board. The school now is thoroughly modern and well equipped. It will be ample for the requirements here for many years to come. x Ok As yet no definite word has been received locally about the govern- ment liquor store. An inspector was in the city and looked over the five stores which had been recomfnended to the board. Two _ he rejected at once and of the other three seemed to favor one store, but so far nothing further has been heard about it. Neither has the vendor been appoint- ed. The information to hand here now is that the appointment will be made and the permits will be ready for distribution about the: 24th of May. It is predicted that the stores will not be open for business until the end of the month. From the length of time it has taken since the people approved of the policy of government control it woutd seem that the government has been taking great pains to see that everything will be perfect when the:sale does ~ start, but the chances are that in- stead of working smoothly there will be all kinds of flaws discovered de- { spite all the long delay in getting the liquor on sale, HOME TALENT SCORE (Continued from page 1) The costumes were especially pret- | ty and the choruses made up of the cream of Stratford's girls were as als tractive aS any choruses ever appeared in Musical here. The John MacDonald Chapter is to be congratulated, however, on the way they handled the situation, and Mrs. A. C. McLeod, the Regent of the Chapter is deserving of special men- tion for her indefatigable efforts in the promoting of the play. Miss Estelle M. Jones, the direct- ress of the play, showed marked abil- ity and talent in the staging of the production, and accomplishing s0 much in such a short time, but then, she says the success of the play was Comedy é because of the exceptional talent of those who took part in the perform: ed ance. that have THE MIRROR 5 - COMPLETE LIST OF AWARDS IN COUNTY MUSICAL FESTIVAL Below is given the complete list of | ence Smith and Jean Stapleton. prize .winners in the Perth County Musical Festival competitions which concluded last evening in St. John's United church: Class 1, church: choirs over 31 voices----1; Knox church; 2: tie, Ont- ario St. Baptist and Listowel United | church; 3, St. John's United church.

"A big bucket for three dearie," and "make it snappy! Vl have to be out of here in 15 minutes." Moving To Have Dark Corners Better Lighted The Safety Committee of the City Council is moving to have some of the dark corners in the city better lighted. This is a very good move and one that will receive hearty com- mendation from the motoring public. There are some corners in this city that are positive death traps and some of them have already taken toll.

Commerford 199 Ontario Street One place in particular, that of the -- corner of St. Patrick and Erie streets, is a very dangerous intersection and is to be the first one remedied. Aa a matter of fact it is a wonder that this city has not been sued for dam- ages before this by drivers damaging their cars by running into unlighted traffic signais at night. Every traf- fic signal should be lighted in some way. Otherwise it is a menace rather than an aid to traffic. Courts have held it so and a town not far from Stratford paid a damage claim last year for the same thing, | Where Did Yo Get that Hat?
