there is a "milk bottle" thief
prowling the streets of Clinton

doing alright, from reports of
milkmen who are finding quite a
number of bottles emptied of their
money and in some cases strewn
over the lawns. The two dairies in

would purchase milk tickets and
thereby avoid embarrassment both

Change Vote Rights
A notice ok motion to amend
the constitution was presented.
This change in the constitution
would give all township federa-
tion. officials the right to vote at
the county annual meeting. At
the present time only two repre-
sentatives from each township
are entitled to vote and one from
each affiliated organizastion. The
representation from the affiliat-
ed organizations would remain
the same. It was felt that this
would encourage more people to
attend the county annual meet-
ing.
It was decided to have the an-
nual county banquet on a separ-
ate date from the annual meet-
ing. It was tentatively decided
to hold the banquet on October
29 with Cameron IVIcTaggart, of
Glencoe, as guest speaker and to
have the annual meeting on No-
vember 12.
Beef Men to. Meet
The beef producers committee
asked to call a county meeting
of all interested beef producers
to seek some solution to market-
ing difficulties which the beef
industry is encountering at the
present time with indications that
marketing -conditions may become
steadily worse unless some solu-
tion is found for handling sur-
plus beef which built up on the
farms due, to the recent foot and
mouth epidemic in Western Can-
ada. There is just about ten
million pounds of the present
British contract left to be filled.
