' The court of kevision is now reviewing appeals of business con- cerns, after which factory appeals will be considered. According to the mayor a good per- centage of the appeals have been lowered, resulting in a lowering of the assessments an estimated $7,500 to date, Individual assessments have been lowered from $100 to $500 on the residences so far considered. Another meeting of the court of revision this week is expected to clean up all the outstanding appeals, including those of business and industry. Two or three of the original assess- ments have been sustained, after con- sideration on the party by the court of revision. Those making appeals are allowed four days to make further appeal against the decision of the court, and an appeal may also be entered against the court's decision by the county assessor, if he so de- sires. Mayor Miller reports that the court of revision found certain inequalities among the assessments, and that they have attempted to make such adjust- ments as they deem necessary to rec- tify these inequalities. On Parade! The Regimental H.Q. and 99th Bat- tery held their regular Monday night training on November 16th and ,every- one was talking about the Meaford shoot held last Satutoday and Sunday. It was quite a week-end, believe me. For awhile we thought we would be ."fogged out" but the smog lifted about 10 a.m. and so the shoot was on and everyone got some good training out of it. 0 - 0 - 0 A. few of the fellows were timid at first having never fired a 25-pounder before. For awhile there you would think those smoke poles were made of glass the way some of the gunner types handed them, but after a few rounds they were really in the groove. in fact, the way some of them ramm- ed a shell you would think they were trying to push them all the way to the target. O - 0 - 0 The officers were up front in the Observation Post, drinking tea and eating crumpets and directing fire. The way they were ranging for awhile there we thought they were trying to h it a deer on the run. O - 0 - 0 The signal section had a very busy week-end laying the line down for the field telephones, but there was only one thing wrong. Not enough telephone wire. But our hero, Sgt. "Buck" Sinnamon solved the problem. We think he cut a few yards out of the middle and tacked it on the end. Bravo, Buck, bravo. O -• 0 - 0 We wonder if Gnr. "Bob" Mason has written that letter to Dear John, because that is all that was heard from him over the week-end at Mea- ford. 0 - 0 - 0 The week-end was very good both from the training stand-point and the weather and everybody is looking for- ward to the next trip to Meaford, the range, that is. 0 - 0 - 0 As for Monday evening, it was a busy one, unpacking and collecting bodies, W.0.2 "Wilf" Seddon had the gun crews doing maintenance with Bdr. "Borden" Jenkins as his right hand man. When lunch was passed around Bdr. Jenkins' hand was seen corning out of the gun barrel and taking a sandwich. Looks like the only way we will get him away from a gun is to load it and blast him away. 0 - 0 - 0 The Senior N.C.O.'s course started its eleven weeks' grind on Monday night at Listowel. Lt. A. M. MacArthur is chief instructor and W.0,1 Smith and S/Sgt, Duggan was assistant in- structor. So if the men on course stick it out the unit should have a few sergeants or some other high ranking officers, 0 - - 0 As a closing word we wish to re- mind all battery members that this unit is going to Camp Ipperwash on Sunday, November 29 for small arms training, In other words, we will fire pea shooters compared to the 25- pounders. So be on hand-it should be interesting. 0 - 0 - 0 This is all the breeze to be shot this week and remember, you fellows Who ere thinking about enlisting in the 59th Battery, don't give it a second thought. Just come down and sec what is going oh, then sign. You will be welcomed, al, ..hr*Tutfl, InstU SA, .t.home... Others, i The Wingham. Mvalenee Successful Gunners ALONG THE MAIN DRAG By The PodestVan UNDER THE ~ SPELL-Ron Ste Marie, of the AdvanceTimes staff, was not a little surprised last week, when the morning after he had been well and thoroughly hypnotized at the show in Harriston, he received, a letter ,.addressed to Mr. and Mrs. Ron Ste ri.-'karie. Being a single man, he was making frantic inquiries: as to what actually DID happen while he was under the hypnotic spell. O - 0 - 0 DON'T SHOOT!-The Lions meeting en Friday night was considerably en- livened in the middle of a speech on peanuts, when one of the members, searching around for a light, was handed an exploding match book by a fellow member. Members registered varying degrees of surprise and alarm when the infernal machine exploded, in ratio to their proximity to the ex- plosion, and the speaker of the even- ing said that while he had had things thrown at him before, this was the first time he had ever been shot at. , 0 - 0 - 0 SHOOT to-Bill Henderson, who spent many a weary hour out in the bush during the deer season without even sighting a deer, is a man with a beef. Four days after the deer season was ever, he was sitting in his car on one of the sideroads when what should come sauntering up but a four-point buck. Bill says the , animal started licking, the car, and was just about down to the ground coat before Bill could pull himself together and drive off in disgust. 0 - 0 - u IMPROPERLY DRESSED-Norm Weiwood walked into the Brunswick the other day for his morning coffee, supremely oblivious to the fact that he had forgotten to put on a tie that morning. Milford Foxton, with the eagle-eye of an ex-military policeman, spotted the deficiency immediately. 0 - 0 - 0 SUPPORTING CASTS-Red Hough- ton, well known young athlete around alfzwn, has been getting tough breaks iltaely, In September he fell out of a' tree and broke his left arm. Then last week, with his arm still in a cast, he fell on the ice at the arena and broke his right elbow. Now, with both arms in, a cast, Red finds the going pretty tough. Forutnately the first cast will be off in a couple of weeks,' and Red will at least be able to feed laimself without too much trouble. O -, 0 - 0 FENDER TROUBLE-Judging from the scraped condition of the steel pro- tecting plates around the main street's lamp standards, a lot of the citizenry are having trouble getting parked these. days. The piers project several inches out from the curb and make the manoeuvering difficult. One mot- orist thought he would have to get a derrick when, parking almost against one of the obstructions, he had some one pull in tight behind him.

GEORGE MAN IS LIONS CLUB SPEAKER Lion Bill Taylor, of St. George, Ont- ario, a past district governor, was the speaker at the meeting of the Lions Club of Wingham, held in the Hotel Brunswick, on Friday evening. "The most unhappy man I know," said the speaker, "is the individual who insists on living to himself in his community. Friendship is based on service to others." Continuing his thought that service is of first importance, Mr. Taylor said that the demands of present-day soc- iety have. made it necessary to broad- en our sphere of 'activities far beyond the limits Of our own immediate local- ities. "We are individually and collec- tively responsible for world peace," he said, "We have too many men of science and too few men of God." To illustrate the importance of fra- ternal influence in a move toward a lasting world peace, Mr. Taylor told how the Lions of the Phillipines had gone to Japan to officiate at the char- tering of the first Lions Club to be organized in the land of their former enemies.
