All indications are that three councillors will be needed to fill out the required number of positions on town council. Also needed will be two members for public school board, Both members of the Public Utilities Commission whose terms end this December, have indicated that they will be willing to run, if the rate- payers want them. That means that five people are needed to assist in the taking care of town affairs. Of course, any others who wish to take part in the job are welcome to come out and combat any of the encumbent members—for it is your show, If you want to have a hand in the govern- ing of your town—if you want to find out how it is done—then attend the nomination meeting on Thursday night, November 26, in the council chamber, and run for election yourself if you want to. Another thing to remember it—if the CTA is repealed, then you will require on council, members who will do the thing you want done in Clinton with regard to outlets for alcoholic beverages. 40 YEARS AGO CLINTON' NEW ERA Thursday, November 27, 1919 The London, Huron and Bruce train due here at 11 a.m. has been removed and the afternoon train at 4,18 for London also com- es off. Only the morning passeng- er train and the evening train will run on the London, Huron and Bruce, as it has been for the past two winters, No announcement has been made on the Goderich and Buffalo line, but it is expected that a train will come off. Huron Presbytery has had under consideration for some time the re- arrangement of the work in the Presbytery. It is hoped that by dividing some charges and adding to others to save the services of two or three or possibly more men who will thus be set free to work in the West and other places where today there are no minis- ters, and there is a crying need for workers. This rearrangement will also enable charges to pay more easily the minimum stipend of $1,500. Wellington Cook, who has been connected with the Sutter Plumb- ing firm for the past year, left this week for Hamilton. Mrs. Cook will leave shortly to join her husband.

Dandelions are bloom- ing, also ealendulas which are in a sheltered place. Pansies are send- ing forth as fine a bloom as one would see in the spring in many gardens, and it is very hard indeed to imagine that it is only a little over three weeks until Christmas. Over 30 ladies attended the reg- ular monthly meeting of the Clin- ton Branch of the Women's Insti- tute held in the Legion Hall. Mrs. J. McKinley, president, was in the chair, with Mrs. William Stewart at the piano. Miss Viola Fraser, of the Public School staff, and her pupils presented three pleasing vocal numbers. Clare Kennedy, son of Mr. and Mrs. W. Kennedy met with a seri- ous accident while acting as water boy with a gang of road construc- tion men on No. 4 Highway. He was riding on the running board of a truck, when it was suddenly stopped and he was thrown vio- lently to the pavement. His case at first looked serious and fears for his life were expressed, but it is now hoped that with care he will pull through.

Milton Cook, who has been un- dergoing treatment in the military Remember that every year you pay a cer- tain amount of taxes—whether it be $50 of $500. Surely this means enough to you, to make the trip out on nomination day, to find out at first hand where your money is going, and get to know the men who are spending it for you. As' the editor of the Exeter Times-Advocate puts it, "You've already paid the price of ad- mission and it isn't cheap . . Can you afford to miss the nomination meeting in your munici- pality after contributing that Much?" WHEN WE look over the municipal scene, we do not forget the situation in the rural communities. This Friday afternoon, the town- ships of Hullett, Tuckersmith, and Goderich are :holding nominations.

Western Ontario and the Great Lakes area have been hard hit by a storm of mid-winter proportions which brought in its wake a .-sies of accidents on the highways 'q a quick scurry to the barns a., stables by thousands of cattle roaming the ranges. The volunteers who man Clin- ton's firefighting equipment were guests of Norman Holland at a turkey dinner at the Hotel Clin- ton on Monday evening. Mr. Hol- land had taken this means of ex- pressing his appreciation of their efforts in quelling a recent chim- ney fire at his residence. But the sad part of it was that, no sooner had they demolished the first course when a telephone call came in from Seaforth stating that a hardware store there was on fire and would they please come—and soonest. Shortly after ten o'clock they were able to take up again with their meal where they had' left off. 111•111111111•11111•11•1111111111•111 H.

ONTARIO REAL ESTATE LEONARD G. WINTER Real Estate and Business Bro High Street — Clinton Phone HU 2-6692 Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement How Do You Rate in Citizenship? (Allow yourself ten points for each answer) 1. 'Much propaganda against The Canada Temperance Act is grossly misleading, in effect a hoped-for subtle brain washing. True False 2. The Liquor interests are working in Huron because of those who hope to gain financial- ly through the repeal of this Act. True False 3. The Canada Temperance Act is a good Act and holds promise of being made better by amendment through important political sponsorship following its being retained. True False 4. Actual experience shows requests to the Clergy for home visitation, because of the rav- ages of over-indulgence in intoxicants, to be up to thirty times greater in areas not under the C.I.A., as compared to Huron where its protection is enjoyed. True False 5. Tax revenues from the sale of intoxicants are wholly inadequate to offset the ever- increasing costs of public welfare, institutions and agencies made necessary because of excessive indulgence in these beverages. True False 6. Huron has enjoyed an extent of immunity from the devastations of the Liquor Traffic unknown in counties not favored by the C.T.A.'s protection. True False 7. The bootlegger flourishes through the illegal sale of intoxicants. Sales to minors are one of his sources of revenue. The daily news in the fast few years shows that areas other than Huron have had far more difficulty controlling this problem than this county. True False 8. The sale of intoxicating beverages in Quebec operates with a minimum of control. The percentage of financial failures in Quebec is far greater than in Ontario. The record of Huron for financial stability is enviable. It naturally follows that money not spent for intoxicants is available for more useful purposes. The home benefits, so does the average merchant. True False 1. While Canadians generously support many good causes organized for the uplift of mankind, they allow a minority, interested chiefly in monetary gain, to pull the wool over their eyes in regard to the degrading, health-smashing, soul-searing effects of the excess use of alcoholic beverages. At the same time as we have watched social drinking, apparently clothed with respectability, we have seen those who could not handle it headed for, and arriving at, self destruction. True False 10. Loaded firearms, potential killers are treated with great respect. Loaded bottles of beverage alcohol, more powerfully damaging than firearms have proven their potential- ity as killers through their involvement in hundreds of fatal accidents reported in the daily press. The curses arising out of the excess use of alcoholic beverages are more urgently in need of solution than are many of the causes generously supported in na- tional appeals. Just as no one would think of trying to remove the danger of loaded firearms by placing them within ready reach •of all and sundry, so it naturally follows that Huron must keep the floodgates closed by retaining The Canada Temperance Act on November 30. True False ............ If your score is greater for True than False, you may consider yourself adequately prepared to vote on the issue up for decision on November 30th. If the reverse is true, we respectfully suggest you need to do some personal research into .the facts. Vote AGAINST Revocation F. R. HOWSON, CHAIRMAN, HURON C.T.A. COMMITTEE
