Itwill be noted that the village au- thorities propose to check Hallowe’en spirit to the extent of prosecuting those who commit depredations. This fore- hand action is quite right. But would it not be a commendable step for this community to organize for holding a Hallowe’en celebration A Rather Mixed-Up Case A young Chesley chap by the name} of Hagey is likely to be up in court shortly on a charge of theft. It is alleged that he was apparently going to purchase Orville Hauser’s motorcycle and had it on trial. He then left Ches- ley and, after a tour, wound up at Kin- cardine, where he is said to have sold the motorcycle to Blake Anderson for 435 down and the balance in monthly installments. However, instead of leav- ing the machine with Anderson, he drove it back to Chesley. Owing to his absence Hauser notified Constable Mey- er of town. who made a search, and Hagey having returned to Chesley, they found the motorcycle near the grist mill in that town. somewhat the worse for weanâ€"Hanover Post.
