WHO SHOULD VOTE?
A proposal is being placed before
the Ontario Property Owners’ Assoc-
Ration to confine municipal votes to
property owners. At present a man
who does not own property has the
right to vote and has just as much
influence as the property owner to
elect a candidate to Council.
The idea of depriving those who
4o not own property the right to vote
in municipal elections has been ad
vanced before. We believe it would
be very wrong and very undemocratic
to take away from non property own
ers the right to vote in the munici
palities in which they reside. We are
of the opinion that if the right to
vote were taken away from the above
named citizens that it would be a step
backward and cause great dissension
among our people. The non property
owner in most cases, is just as inter
ested in the municipality in which he
lives as the property owner. The
house they rent is their home and in
directly they pay municipal taxes
through rent.
On major projects only property
owners can vote and to this extent
the property owner is protected. To
take the vote away from the man
who does not own property would set
up factions, a condition that should
be avoided.

Boy Found Church Safe
Smashed Open
The Tabernacle safe stolen by rob
bers from the altar of St. Joseph’s
Church, Kingsbridge, early St. Pat
rick’s Day morning, was found the
following day by small boys under a
bridge abutment on the Blue Water
Highway, one mile north of Amber
ley, Provincial Constable McCoy re
ported. The door had been chiselled
from its
battered,
contents,
and their
en the safe, cold' chisels, a crow-bar
and, sledges, were stolen from Ged
des Implement Shop at Amberley,
which was broken into and looted by
the robbers after the church robbery.
At Pine River, midway between Am
berley and Kincardine, a service sta
tion was also broken into on the
same night, and a quantity of gaso
line and oil stolen, Police say there
are three in the gang and now defin
itely link them with robberies at Ber
vie, Mildmay and Clifford, committed
a few days before the three break-ins
in this section.
You. know that constipation often
gives you that dopey, sunken,
bogged down, feeling. Why not get
at the cause and fix it?
If you eat what most people do
—things like bread, meat and .
potatoes—the chances are all ,
that’s the matter with you is you
don't get euous'Zt “buffc." And
“bulk” doesn’t, mean what you
may think, It’s a kind of food
that isn’t entirely consumed, but
leaves a soft, bulky mass in the
intestines that aids elimination.
If this is your trouble, what you
need is a dish of crisp, crunchy
Kellogg’s All-Bran for breakfast
every day. It contains the “bulk”
you need, plus Nature’s Intestinal
tonic vitamin Bn and iron.
Eat All-Bran every day, drink
plenty of water, and see if the old
world doesn’t look a lot brighter!

Radio Experts?
A number of Milverton radio own
ers are beginning to have their doubts
as to the reliability- of three strang
ers who posed as “radio experts’’
when they visited this locality about
two week’s ago. From what we can
learn none of the machines they re
paired are working satisfactorily and
a letter sent to the address left by
one of the party has been returned
by the 'post office department as there
is no such street address in London.
It would be well to investigate very
thoroughly the high-falutin’ claims of
strangers before letting them tamper
with any of your property or before
parting with your money.—Milverton

Walkerton to Have
Garbage Collection
Walkerton will have a garbage col
lection service inaugurated early this
spring. This matter which has been
under advisement of this and previous
councils, has finally developed into
concrete form. At the regular month
ly meeting of the council, necessary
procedure was taken for the set-up of
this service. It is planned to operate
it by team and wagon. Only’ those
desiring this service will be required
to pay for it, the rate being based on
a scale now being drafted by the com
mittee in charge.
Kicked in Mouth by Horse
When Alhponse Kempel was doing
the chores in the stable of his uncle,
John Millen, he received a kick in the
face by a horse, knocking out several
teeth and painfully 'lacerating his
mouth. The animal was always very
quiet and docile, and was' not suspect
ed of having any mischievous antics
in its make-up.—Mildmay Gazette.
Engine Causes Fire
An overheated engine in the chop
ping mill and flour and feed store on
Walkerton’s main street, owned by E.
W. Foster, caused a fire which did
$2,000 damage. The damage to the
building amounted to $1,200, and the
stock' suffered damage by water to the
extent of $800. The fire was prompt
ly put-under control by the fire bri
gade.—Mildmay Gazette. t
Robbery at Clifford
The service station' operated by
Clfford G. Cook was broken into re
cently. Goods and cash to the am
ount of $10 was taken. The robbery
was discovered by Mr. Cook. The
thieves had gained access by smash
ing the glass in the door. All the to
bacco and $5 in coppers was taken.
Bervie Store Looted
Police are investigating a robbery
at Moore’s store in Bervie. The store
conducted by David Fleming, was en
tered and cash, tobacco, a shot-gun
and shells taken. The thieves broke
a window and opened the door, In
side several drawers were tumbled to
the floorj the cash fi.lj with $15 in
silver and bills taken. If was found
a few miles away with checks strewn
around. With the exception of a half
package of tobacco the complete
stock, valued at $100 was taken. A
pump action shotgun and a box of
shells were removed from underneath
the counter.
“Now, thenl” .roared the sergeant-
major, as he dismissed the men, “you
will parade again at 2 o’clock precise
ly. And when I say 2 o’clock precise

By Betty Barclay
Tq many, Spring is the most de
lightful season of the year. There’s
an earthly aroma in the air that calls
for hiking, fishing, golf or gardening.
Twittering birds, bursting buds, pale
green baby leaves—Spring is here.
To others, Spring means a period
of languidness. “That tired feeling” is
constantly present. Somehow, they
cannot throw themselves into the joy
of things. , After a few Weeks of
weariness, this feeling wears off—but
oh, how they detest these few weeks,.
What we so carelessly refer to as
“Spring fever” is actually one of our
most shameful and unpardonable dis-,
eases—if it is really entitled to the
honor of being called a disease.
During cold weather we eat large
quantities of heavier foods. Our bod
ies need this added fuel in order to
generate heat. As Spring' approaches,
we fail to use the damper on our food
intake as we do on the furnace in the
cellar—and before we realize Spring
is here, our bodies are suddenly over
loaded’. We get that “tired feeling.”
We are “loggy..” Spring fever has
visited us—at our own invitation.
Avoid Spring fever this year by
changing over to the "lighter fuels”
such as fresh frait and green veget
ables. Lettuce, oranges, apples and
milk are excellent Spring foods.
Many a twinging ache disappears
rapidly on such a change of liet.
Saluting Spring with a daily salad,
a glass of orange juice in the morn
ing and a light fruit dessert each ev
ening, is a gesture that will go a long
way toward keeping this bugaboo
from your door.
Here are a few suggestions along
this line that will please the house
wife who is interested in health and
at the same time delights to serve
new and tasty dishes:
Orange and Grapefruit Salad;
(Serves 6)
6 Navel oranges
3 to 4 grapefruit
