PAISLEY BRIGADE CRITICISED
1
A considerable bit of criticism is
being levelled at the Fire Brigade,
since the fiasco 'Saturday evening,
when following the sounding of .the
alarm for a chimney blaze, the reels
victim'7"bf"’^farrK'~r*' 1 —
There are other factors which pre-
disp'pse-to the development of catarrh’
such ps the inhalation of dust and
irri[
certain .. ,
other conditions j^ich^obstfuct the
nosp,„_such—a^'a^defect in structure.
Germs which , have been, coughed
or sneezed out by someone close ,at
hand are liable to be breathed in by
another person. The flushing "of the
nose with the normal secretion washes
these germs along so rapidly that
they have not sufficient time, to
multiply and, set up trouble.
reverse is true with the altered sticky
secretion of nasal catarrh which hold
the gejrrns instead of washing them
along, thus providing the opportunity:
for the germs to grow, which they
do. very • rapidly. «
Other -symptoms are distrjessing,
such as inability ^to breathe through
the nose, at night, interference with
taste, and offensiveness of the breath.
It cannot be overlooked that inflama-
tion tends to spread so that sinuses
and ears may become involve^.'JL
The. first step in treatment is to
correct any defect in the structure
Qf the hose, and to remove any ob
struction, such as adenoids or other
growth. Much comfort can be gained
and many complications avoided thru
keeping the nose clear by the, use of,
a spray. (not a douche) of properly,
prepared salt solution, Eyery case'
requires medical care to determine
and, correct the underlying cause.
Ofoestions' concerning health, ad
dressed to the Canadian Medical As
sociation, 184 . College St., Toronto,

using Ontario highways go into effect!
on. March 1st, and wilt be1 effective
until the 2nd of April. As frost be

the department calls upon the owners
of large transports to reduco^loads-
by 50 per cent. Prosecutions await
■". those who violate; the regulation,

at- Mrs.. J. McIntosh’s. A letter from
Mrs. 0. G. Anderson read by the sec
retary; was followed by a letter
from H. H. Hannan, read by Mrs.
,Tas. T. Webster: This was'followed by

vote of thanks given' to Mrs. Jamie
son for. the use of the halt; A-dainty
lunch was then served.,
were not taken from the .fire Ball un
til almost half an hour had- jelapsed.
It appears that many of the avail
able lengths of hose , had been used
a few days previously for the^putpose
of supplying waterj to the Central
Hotel, and after this chore had been
performed, the ho'Se had been hung
up in the fire hall to drain and dry.
Upon5 bursting into the fire hall for
lhei.p antiquated equipment when the
alarm sounded Saturday evening, the,
members of the brigade were thrown
into decided confusion to" find the
-reels stripped, and the hose hanging
high above their heads. One helpful
members of-.the brigade swung into
action by releasing all the lengths of
suspended hdse at one jerk, and this
resulted in a tangle of hose and rope
that very closely resembled a Gordian
knot. With each fire fighter tackling
the untangling-process in his own
way; it is not at all remarkable that
considerable time elapsed before the
reels once more held their rightful
burden and were Eeifig hauled towards
the scene of the alarm, which had
Keen sent in long before. The truth of
the matter is, the fire was long under
'•control before ever.the1, hose. was.back
on the carts.—Paisley Advocate.
The recent' assignment and pro
posed-closing of . the Bell Furniture
Plant, Southampton’s oldest industry,
is a' very serious blow to the town’s
welfare. A meeting of the creditors
was set for Tuesday in Toronto,
In May of last year the town of
Southampton, guaranteed - the bonds
of the company to the extent of
$30,000 to enable operations to con
tinue. The company resumed opera
tions and from September I to Chris-
Imas employed 75 to 100 men. After
a short shut-down duringjthe holiday
season, work was resumed on special
orders and the present condition was
quite unexpected.
The closing of this plant with the
resulting unemployment and probable
increase in debt of the. town X? a
serious blow. Southampton , has two
idle factories now and this shut-down
further aggravates a serious
tion.

LITHIUM DISCOVERED ON

- Lithium has been discovered on the
property of Albert Mugford, in Col-

north-east of Goderich and only a
stoned throw from the spot where salt .
wells at Saliford were the scenes of
much activity 40 to 50 years ago.
The presence of Lithium a light metal
is confirmed by a report on a sample
Of water sent from the Mugford, well
to ' the government . laboratory at
Toronto. The discovery of lithium is
of unknown commercial value for the
presenL-r-------------- - - .........
A somewhat obnoxious odorr. and
unpalatable fast of the water from
the well, located on an elevation led
to the sending of a sample to Tor

other visitors to Mugford farm re
fused to drink the water,-but those
residing close by are said to Have «
been accustomed to it and find it
both,. healthful and pleasant.
