His first job in a cheese factory in Guelph Township brought him $48 for a year, out of which he paid for his washing. In the same factory an English girl, fourteen years of age, also. worked. Mr. Corker is now .a wellâ€"known citiâ€" zen of Fergus. This week he was surâ€" prised to receive a letter from Alberta, written by the girl who had worked with him in ‘the cheese factory.! She had not seen .or heard/from him for over half a century, but recently, learâ€" ning his address, wrote and enclosed a picture of himself taken at the timeâ€"he received his first year‘s pay, and wearâ€" ing the suit bought for him by Gladâ€" stone when he sailed for Canada. It is a shame to spoil the romance, but it must be added that, although Mr. Corker is still a bachelor, his friend of long ago celebrated her goldâ€" en ‘wedding last year by a trip to Chiâ€" caso. $ t The balmy air and rain of the week end and first days of this week, alâ€" though not conducive to skating and other popular winter sports, stirred into life the dormant spring feeling within the hearts of all, also offered quite a welcome change from the icy fingers of King Winter,/ who had reigned supreme for the past two months. We may still expect periodiâ€" cal return visits from Jack Frost and his attendants of ice and snow, but the February thaw of this week is the first herald of spring breaking his chains, which we are sure he will be unable to forge quite as securely again this season. Robins, butterflies, June bugs, etc., have been announced as paying their respects, to various towns and communities, but seemed to have missed Weston from théir callâ€" ing lists, The Weston merchants are not waiting for these Heralds of Spring, but are up and doing in the matter of getting their supplies ready for the business rush they are anticiâ€" pating this coming summer, knowing full well the old adage still holds true â€""The early bird gets the wornm‘"‘â€" and equally so like the lazy frog of old if they wait for the fly to come to them instead of going after it, they will not succeed. Weston has been visited within the past few days by. a representative of the Consumers Gas Company, of Toâ€" ronto, who has been soliciting signaâ€" tures for the installation of a gas serâ€" vice for Weston. The party in quesâ€" tion has been going rather out of his‘ way in belittling the service given by the local Hydro, which is a municipalâ€" ly owned plant, and one that has alâ€" ways given the town good service. The intimation made was to the effect, a shortage of power was imm'axvlent, elecâ€" tric ranges, grates, etc., were in danâ€" ger of being cut off or a prohibitive price for the same levied.. . Weston Hydro wish to make it plain that they have had no notice served as to any. shortage, and at the present time are: well equipped and willing to serve all residents who might be contemplating the installation‘ of electric ranges or other household appliances. comforts and needs of, the Labrador folk.
