In ancient Greek and Roman mythology, this is exactly what happened. The ancients be- lieved that there were female water spirits who acquired the souls of men by marrying the poor fellows. The "Good Wife" Canadian wives who work in their husbands' businesses may note with envy a ruling of a United States court allowing the family company to deduct a wife's $12, 000 annual salary as a business expense. The tax court sided with the taxpayer after the U.S. revenue service objected to the deduction. The revenue service had argued that it could allow only $600 deduction, on the ground that the woman was only perform- ing incidental services any "good wife" would perform to assist her husband in his busi- ness. - Letter -Review. 16 Schools Will Compete at Fair BELGRAVE-The 44th an- nual Belgrave School Fair will be held on Wednesday, Sept- ember 16, at the community centre, starting with a school parade at 1:15 from the For- esters' Hall.

Everyone has spent considerable time and money so that tourists can enjoy their summer as before. No one knows exactly what caused the sudden drop in lake levels. Some feel it is a cy- clical process. One resortown- er on Matchedash Bay near Waubaushene explained: "The water drops a little every year," This year, however, the drop was about two feet as compared to a matter of inches in pre- vious years. It is true the water level is down but everyone has taken the situation into consideration and emergency steps have been taken to assume near normal conditions. New docks have been built and old ones extended to meet the new level. Boats are there- fore still able to use their fa- vorite marinas and landing ar- eas. Almost everyone ha s dredged his waterfront. In most cases, they have been able to make their off -shore depths approximately the same as they were last summer. Contrary to opinion, the fishing has not been affected by the drop. Trout, maskinonge, pickerel and pike are being ta- ken in quantity, Georgian Bay is still Ontario's prune fishing area. Swimming too, will he bet- ter than ever in the area this summer. The low water level has been an advantage rather than a detriment in that opera- tors have found it necessary to clean up and re -build their beach facilities. However, un- marked shoals are still a haz- ard az- ard which sailors must careful- ly note, In Georgian Bay, this situation is not new to those un- familiar with these waters.
