The Retail Merchants had another meeting on Monday evening to discuss the electric power shortage, and to decide on the best way to co-operate, Previously they had decided to. close at 5.30 each day, Monday to Friday, and all day Wednesday. This was not producing the desired effect and it was unanimously decided to close at 5 p. in. and remain open Wednesday morn- ing and Saturday night until 10 o'clock. Power Shortage Acute During the past week a saving of power has been ,noticed, but there is still a long way to go to get down to the quota in Wingham, and power shutoffs have now started in town as well as on the rural hydro, In order 'that, all may know what hours the power will be off in the different sec- tions of the town, the shutoff periods will be announced over CKNX news- casts each day. One way for housewives to save is by doing their ironing and baking each week-end. The quota is only effective Mondays through Fridays. Let us all do our best to save elec- tricity and, hold these shutoffs to a minimum.

MD ON SATURDAY, • Cold Weather Reduces Attendance Manual Training Exhibit Outstanding The 89th annual exhibition of How- ick Agricultural Society was held on Saturday last in Fordwich. The rath- er cold weather was a handicap to the attendance, yet a very good crowd was on hand for this annual outing, includ- ing many former residents of the dist- rict, now resident at distant points, The Kincardine Pipe Band headed the parade of school children, a feature which was particularly attractive this year. Warden Hugh Berry, who off- icially opened the fair, stated that be had attended many fairs in Huron and in neighbouring counties, but at none of them was there such a display as provided by the Public Shcool pupils of Howick and their teachers. In- spector J. M, Game also voiced his appreciation of the fine parade and of the various school projects in the hall.

Plowing Difficult The past season of dry weather made plowing difficult, and. was a major cause of a decrease in the num- ber of entries. The trend toward pow- er machinery was apity demonstrated in the fact that more tractors than teams competed. Coupled with the match was a farm machinery demonstration, which rat- ed much interest and had a great bear- ing upon the number of spectators present, Included in machines dem- onstrated were: Corn pickers, corn harvesters, manure loaders and a bull- dozer, used to uproot an orchard which aft. ..••••••,,••••••••••••= OCTOBER 23rtl.
