'The Signal Is In a position to know that it was with some re- luctance the managers of the Greyhound decided to run this excursion this year. In fact, -it--- had practically been decided not to da 'so but after some urgtng-- the matter was reconsidered and it was decided to give the ex- cursion one more trial. The trip invokes considerable expense, and the returns the last few years have not been arch as- to encourage the owners to con- tinue It. it will readily ie.ren, people then, that If the of this district desire to secure the con- tinnance of the excursion from year to year. with the splendid opportunity It gives of a pleas- ant trip and a visit to the great City of the Straits -and at a very cheap rate- it will be ne- cessary to give the Greyhound such patronage that the man- agers of the line will find the trip profitable. If the Greyhound should dis- continue Its annual excursion. we are quite sure that the peo- ple here would be much dis- appointed. and to guard against such a disappointment next sr and in the future years all who can should make it a point In- take in this year's trip. in other words, upon the sue- r -eon or otherwise of this year's exe•nrsion will depend the del - Rion to centime or to ranee the, annual event which for many years has given pleasure and an- portnntty to our motile New Ford Agents The agency. for the Ford cars has l set taken over by Messrs.1 '. 11.
