The stems were removed and the fruit weighed 18 pounds. Wap I 'overcharged? A,--I..rom your letter it would ap- pear you bought the cherries from a producer- whose ceiling price in Nor- folk is $3.36. No difference in maxi- mum prices is quoted for stemmed and destemmed fruit in our regulations. Q.—Can you tell me the maximum interest a pawnbroker is allowed to charge on a thirty -day loan? A.—The Wartime Prices and Trade Board does not have a regulation gov- erning this subject. Federal and Pro- vincial pawnbrokers' laws do limit the interest rates. Q.—Does the Prices Board have any control over rents" at a anin11 property in a township where the owner makes a living? Also does ft control tourist home rates and housekeeping rooms for service men? A.—If the tenant of the small , pro- perty in the township is a farmer and makes his li •fn h Boar has no control over the. rent. If the landlady of a Muria home or housekeeping rooms furnishes every, thing, that isthe-bedding and linen, and does the laundering of these, -she can fix her own rates. If the tenant con= siders that the rates are too high he may apply ' for a reduction to the nearest office of the W.P.T.B.r The -nates must be comparable with .rates charged for similar accommodation in the same neighborhood.

Maedel Hon.. ored on Their 50th Wedding Anniversary A Colborne township boy who has "made good" in business life`. as well as in other 'spheres, is Charles Maedel of Essex, Ont. Mr. Maedel was born at Benmiller, , son of 'the late Mr. and Mrs. Paul :Maedel, and spent his early boyhood there before leaving, for Essex County. , There, fifty- years ago, he married a young lady of that county and on July 28th last they celebrated their golden wedding anniversary: The celebration was actually spread over two or three days, as, according . to the account in The Essex Free Press, Mr. and Mrs. Maedel were hosts at, several functions, , were serenaded by two bands, and were the recipients of various presentations, including " one from his employees and one from the South Essex Boys' Band. Mr. and Mrs. Maedel have been fre- quent visitors in Goderich, particularly as guests of Mr. and Mrs. Thos. Sillib, Newgate street, who attended the golden wedding celebration at Essex. The Essex paper gives a sketch of Mr. Maedel's • career as follows: Mr. Maedel, who was born near Goderich, moved fo Staples in. 1894, and was married to Miss Eva Boughner, a native of that village, at the Meth- odist church parsonage, in Leamington, s loway. "They had sided in Staples' and Windsor prior to Mr. Maedel purchasing the Essex Pop Works from T. Ed. Batten in the spring of 1010. He has seen this ' 'mall busi- ness of 1910, when for years he de- livered his pop by wagon, mostly ,llround the southern part of the county, and during the winter months working at his trade as a plumber, grow into a , twelve _months' ' business, which is one of the largest and most up-to-date pr'lvately owned soft 'drink plants in Canada. Mr. Maedel, in spite of being a busy Man, has always found time to give freely' of his time to,many other activ- ities. For years he took an active part in local municipal politics, being, an ex -Reeve of town, and ''has, for INSURE- IN — SUPE INSURANCE .
