Henderson Act And
Board Fence Affair
Well, they.',re at it again.
This area should produce a good
crop of sign painters inyears to
come if "practice makes perfect".•.
No deed to explain about the
painting'of the board fence on
Lucknow's main street with. the'
words Thome of Paul•. Henderson

all 'heard about it many times
before. .
A recent issue of this paper Out-
lined .steps taken •by the town of
Kincardine in claiming Hender-
son, whenneedlers fromthat towil •
painted. the word "Kincardine"
over the word Lucknow.
• Not content with the way
things were,going,. .Kinloss Town -•-
ship entered the battle and laid
claim to Paulin the early hours
of las; 'Saturday morning. They
erased Kincardine and painted'

Saturday night, a group of young
