Laliberte, Montreal, P.Q, REGULATE COURTS TO CONSERVE GAS Travelling magistrates have in­ troduced a plan to conserve gaso­ line. Last Thursday, for the second week in succession, county police court sessions were cancelled at Goderich. There was not sufficient business to warrant Magistrate Ma­ kins making the trip from Strat­ ford. His worship makes a survey by telephone, assesses fines for min­ or uncontested cases and adjourns others to a day when an accumula­ tion can be heard. This results in one motor trip instead of several as was the case in the pre-gasoline­ ration ’days. Phone News Items to the Times- Advocate. Tips on happenings are always appreciated.
