Youâ€"the woman with a familyâ€"know what it means to have a range that is so casy to regulate, that is a good cooker and a dependable baker. There is no single fixture in your entire house that is as important as your range. Every woman who does her own cookâ€" ing knows what it means to have even heat and plenty of room in the oven. She realizes what a large cooking surâ€" face means and the benefits of regulatâ€" ors and little laborâ€"saving attachments. Three hundred thousand Canadian women know the dependability of Happy Thought ranges from actual everyâ€"day experience. They have found them consistent and satisfactory, econâ€" omical in fuel and easy to operate. Ask any of these happy women about these A demonstration will gladly be given Saunders, Prop.

On propetty there is a good 9â€"roomed house and good bank barn 55x72 with horse stable attached 24x Taken _ altogether Mr. Middleton has made out a very poor case for the Provincial Commission. He igâ€" nored the actual complaints and se: up a little complaint of his own and builded even then a poor defence. There is another matter that Mr. Middleton brings in that there was no complaint made of to the Gregory Commission. That is his figures as to rates. . He does not quote the price of power to the municipality from the Eugenia system. That compartâ€" son might work out a little different ly to those of the municipality to tue actual consumers. Mr. Middleton‘s article is interesâ€" ting, not from the information it gives but from what he does not say in ansâ€" wer to the complaints made by the whole Eugenia Association before the Gregory Commission. Middleton must know what these complaints were or he would not be attempting to cover them over by bringing in something in the matter of comparaâ€" tive tables that were not discussed. Mr. Middleton does not mention any of these in his article. He takes four municipalities on the Eugenia system and compares them with the four municipalities on the Niagara system. For instance he takes Tara, about 40 miles from its source oi power at Eugenia, and compares raies with those in force at Wyoming, about 200 miles from Niagara. â€" The power rate in Tara is two thirds of that at Wyoming, and the former shows a loss of $1017 while the latâ€" ter shows a surplus of ~$428, with practically the same number of users. But Mr. Middleton does not staie the amount of power concumed :n either municipality and that is what the price is based on, not the number of services installed. The article is written by J. E. Miaâ€" dieton, formerly of the Toronto News but now apparently in the propaganâ€" da department of the Hydro Electric Power Commission of Ontario. hir. Middleton starts off on a wrong hnyâ€" pothesis at the start. The municipar ities do not complain so much tha: their rates are "uncommonly high" as that they are 'needlpssly and unnecâ€" essarily high. _ They complain tna: the capital cost of the Eugenia sysâ€" tem was doubled at the time when the demand was slacking, that the additions made to the plant cost out of all proportion to the original plant and did not increase the 24 hour power service. They complain tha: the Provincial Commission â€" spen: money lavishly withou; even constâ€" ting with or informing the municipaiâ€" ities who have to pay. They comâ€" plain that letters are not answered with any degree of promptness, tha: rates are arbitrarily set, that oper~â€" ting costs are high, that present inâ€" spection methods are foolish and wasteful and that a better system for repairs be put into force. They con: plained to the Gregory commission against being charged for upkeep, renewal and replacement charges. The Owen Sound Sun Times puyâ€" lishes in full the attempted defence of J. E. Middleton of Hydro Power rates, which he tries to make out are as low as the Niagara System. The attempt, says the paper, is to belittle the complaints of the Eugenia Power Association before the Gregory Comâ€" mission. ql!' yutl!um Smiw Grateful for Car Sgnt Mrs. A. W.

Just a month from the day that the barn was taken down on the Henderson farm at Crawâ€" ford, it was raised on the farm of Mr. Hugh McDonald. With willing hands and favorable weather the work was accomplished, none working harder or more willing than Mr. Jas. McDonâ€" ald, our young man of seventy four years, who even did his share of shingling on the high roof. We wish. them the best of luck with their new barn and hopo each succeeding year‘ will see it filled to capacity. ‘ DORNOCH MULOCK HAMPDEN ABERDEEN to instal such a light but before this was carried, there was much poring over a map of the locality, opinions differing as to the exact spot.

Catton and McQueen movâ€" ed that the Hydro Com. be instructed An account of $15 was presented by bailiff Dan McLean for three sales or attempted sales of goods in connecâ€" tion with the factory. The reeve and others thought this excessive and afâ€" ter some disputing, Mr. McLean â€"r>â€" duced it to $10, and a check was isâ€" sued in his favor for this sum and for percentage fees for collecting taxes. An offer of $150 was before the Council from Mr. J. H. Harding for some finished goods in the phonoâ€" graph factory, caused much discusâ€" sion, most of it relevant. _A motion by Cattonâ€"McQueen that the offer be accepted, was carried. The yeas and nays were called for, Coun. Saunders alone voting "nay." An account was presented by Polâ€" ice Magistrate Laidlaw and was also laid over, the Council thinking it was a County matter, though Mr. Laidlaw quoted statute and section. An account presented by Allan Bell for $14 for expense of a child funeral in 1917, caused a lot of wrangling peâ€" fore avote was reached. . This hac been presented years ago, and the Council of the time had thrown it out, because it had not been @uthorâ€" ized. This was taken as a guide for the present council, and besides to pay it would establish what might be a costly precedent, and other claims might follow. _ Some members of council saw no danger in paying it, and said so forcibly. A motion by Coun. Catton and Saunders that it be paid, was supported by Coun. Mcâ€" Queen, while Adams, Calder, McDonâ€" ald and Allan opposed. And thus ine claim failed.

A long discussion took place on the necessity of renewing insurance on Jackson property. _ At present there are policies of $5000, $4000 and $4000 on the building and plant on whicn the premiums would amount to $530. 60.
