Bayfield Fishing
Fleet Out Of
Water For Winter
(By our Bayfield correspondent).
George Elliott, Clinton, took
several boats out 'of the Bayfield
river onto land for the winter,
with his bulldozer on Wednesday
of last week. They were the "Har-
ridell" (Toms Brothers), "Naomi"
(Ed Siddel), "Dungill" (T. and T.
Castle), "Maymac" (Captain R. L.
McMillen), "DoUglaS' T" (Fred
Telford). •
The only fishing boat left in the
river is the "W. J. McLeod," with
which Donnie McLeod is still fish-
ing. He got a catch Out at God-
erich last week, and .then brought
his boat back to this harbour.
Ed. Siddel is setting out of God-
erich harbour as the "Vary
Brothers" cannot get in here.
They are the only two fishermen
setting nets in this district and
they report that the catches of
herring and perch are light.
Other fishermen in Bayfield are
thinking of the ice harvest. It
is about nine or ten. inches" thick
now and with another cold spell,
they say that it would be just
right for cutting.

CLINTON,
SAFTEY CHECK YOUR CAR NO
YES, YOU CAN BUY "SAFETY" . . IF YOU
DRIVE A CAR! Why take chances with bad
brakes, poor tires or a motor that's too
"weak" to give you power in times of emerg-
encies? Children on the streets, increased
traffic and crowded highways are all safety
hazards. But one hazard that can be elim-
inated quickly, economically and dependably
—is that of a poor performing, unsafe car.
Drive in today, and let us give your car a
thorough safety check, and repair all trouble
spots. You owe it to yourself and to the
community to drive a "safe" car. Don't de-
lay, do it today!'
