Bdl Cay Wants Decision A telegram from the Bell Telephone Ou. asking tbat the council make a de - codon by September Lt regarding the Company's proposal to reconstruct Its lines In the east end of the town, so that the work may be completed this fall, gave rise to another discussion the cost of poles to be used jointly for telephone and Hydro purposes. Councillor Humber referred to au opinion given by the Hydro engineer In favor of joint use of the poles. The Telephone Company was willing to put up all the required poles at its own expense—It was the council that ob- jected to a double line of poles, result- ing in the suggestion for joint use. Councillor Humber ventured the matter to committee of the whole council. A letter from the Heaton Publish - Ing Co., Toronto, with reference to the Heaton Handbook, was sent to the Mance committee.

A NARROW ESCAPE Joe terttaley narrowly ramped serious Injury last night when 1* thrown from • bicycle to the roadway in a eollisoit with a car driven by Spencer Erwin. The accident arnrred at the corner of West street and the Square when ferltzley pedalled the bicycle In fro.tt of the car, which was toeing driven from the Square. Frttsley Buffered a bruised leg. The bicycle, owned by Ted Snasel, was damaged but slightly. "Wake Up, Goderich!" Suitor The Signal. Sir.—What is the matter with God- erich? While other towns have been holding their reunions and other big days, Goderich has been sitting quiet , all 'summer. This is the first year ' i can remember- and I'm no chicken —when we did not have a Ilominlon Day celebration. The horse races brought a crowd to town, but horse racing appeals to only a section of the people --It doesn't take the place of a real community day with every- body Interested. We try to get summer visitors here, and when they come we do nothing to give them a good time. We're am deed se Inst year's calendar. Why couldn't we hare a day of water sports- a regatta or whatever you want to call It? 1t won't pay, they sey. Well, doe's it have to pay? Would not the merehante donate prise.? and there would not he much et her ex peiftae. if not a regatta, let's have a carnival, athletic .ports. a tattoo --anything to show the world w. re alive and to give our visitors some entertainment. When our merchants close up their stores at noon on Wednetwlay and drive np to Klneardlfe fir down M Greed Bend or .noawh.re elms to see as OLD-IAe 010D? There is hope for tbe fears of the younger geueratlon. Not i are with- out a sense of decency, as .the local chief of pollee evidently was led to believe by his observation of scantily - clad bathers at the beach. On Sunday Bert MacDonald, man- ager of the bathing hoe at the beach, rented a modern "cutaway" suit to a young man. In a few momenta the chap returned aid, In an embarrassed tone, *eked for another suit. It wasn't too small, but he wanted one that covered more of him, he explained, ■s he pointed to the scarcity of mater- ial In the back snd sides. Those hearing the request. tbe ma- jority of whom were attired only In trunks, excused Bert his banging jaw and popping eyes as he went on the al- most hopeless tisk of unearthing an "old;tlmer" for the youth. LIVE WIRES BEACH PARTY On Tuesday afternoon and evening the Live Wire Group of the C.G.I.T. of Knox Presbyterian church held a party at the beach, under the super- vision of their leader, Mrs. A. Taylor. After a period of swimming a camp- fire was' lighted and a wiener roast was held, while happy reminiscences of Camp Klntall were exchanged. The party was cloned with the eiugiug of "Taps" around the camp -ere. - LEG FRACTURE - Mrs. George Mathieson fell and broke net leg it Bagte's Beset) on Sunday, while walking up the bill to her car after completing • holiday -stay at a cottage there.

A large fish truck and trailer, owned by Jake Zoaloff, of Detroit, and driv- en by Peter Laub, of Windsor, rolled over with wbeels pointing skyward when the driver attempted the sharp turn from Elgin avenue to Cambria road on the way to Southampton. Laub suffered a lacerated thigh which required eight stitches and a painfully cut hand. About thirty fish boxes were scattered when the truck rolled neer. FALLS FROM BOIL CAR Beta Kennedy, eight-yearold daugh- ter of Mr. and Mrs. Patrick Kennedy, Victoria street, was painfully shaken up In a frightening experience at the waterfront on Sunday. Reta was playing with a few friends on top of the box care on a siding when, not watching her footing, .he toppled to the ground. The Little girl Injured her hack and suffered a painfully la- cerated ear, but somehow escaped without broten bones, although she was knocked unconuctods by the fall. TO LIBERATE EAGLES David Cantwell and George Rut- ledge, Nile young men who captured two young bald eagles In the Saratoga swamp on July 31st, have received word from the Department of Game and Fisheries that the birds must either be liberated or turned over to a oro. The eagles have been kept at tbe Rutledge hope, but It Le illegal ler an individual to keep them 1n. captivity.

Grievous Are the Troubles -of Youth ?rank Vines, Despite gni --meas_ Record, Too Young for a Pilot's License Contestee t0 press report., Frank Vises. fifteen -year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. H. G. Vines, Pic•ton street has not been grounded by the liepartment of Civil Aviation. "We are the ones who are grounded," explained Mr. and Mrs. Vines, who pointed out to The Signal that "Canada's youugeat avia- tor" merely has been checked up too far as taking passengers 1s c'onc'erned and be must stay within the three- mile limit st London while flying solo. Prauk bas more than one bundred hours In the •ir, and almost ninety of ensu--wera.aolo. ..tie __tbf. 'e- nearly enough hours In the air for a eommerclil pilot's license, which he will not be able to take out for aa - other four years. Neither can be take out a pilot's license, as he Is two years under the minimum age of seven- teen. And this In spite of his veter- an experience. Frank erllhatte be has travelled 1,800 mile. on erose -country trips. Re- cently he had breakfast at London, dinner in the officers' mess at Camp Borden and supper at Hamilton, then returned to London the same day. It Irks lath his parents and the young ace to think that there are so many licensed pilots with so mueb less ex- perlense than has the youngster. Age seems to be the chief stfpulatlon. Mr. Vines sported his disgust as be warmed up to his subject. He pointed out that a man, or anyone over seven- teen, merely has to have two hours solo. cut a figure eight, spin and land. and he gets his pilot's iteense, whereas Frank bas nearly 100 solo hours and has not even scratched a plane. In addition, he has won several contests over older and more experienced pilots. "It'. time they made some drastic changes In the regulations and re- qulrements. to keep abreast of the times." said Mr. Vines, senior. "it's as bed as Goderfcb's 1907 bathing reit bylaw."
