Me Kinney has found. A visitor in the city a couple/ of weeks ago in cnhnection with delegation from Huron County, Mr: McKinney had occasion to park his car on one of Toronto's streets, and returning minutes later, found 'that 'he was the .recipient of a parking tag,. The cost was $2,00. In mailing his cheque for $2.00 to cover the. - fine, Mr. McKinney also sent along a letter explaining that he was in Toronto' on Vusiryess for the Town of Wingham, that he was there at his own expense, and that' the town allowed him no ex- pense account to take care of park- ing tickets. He°said that while he was enclosing his cheque for the tag, he would appreciate it very much if they could see their way to forgive him this time.. To. his surprise Mr. McKinney received a letter back this week, explaining that the -matter had been considered by the judge, and lie had decided against the fine. The cheque for $2.00 was en- closed.—Wingham Advance -Times. A century ago, America's entire output of goods, at present values was around $7.5 billion.

At that time there . were two different types: long Hat boards, the forerunner of the ski; and roundoopls','•' with twisted plant materials' for web- 'bing, known as bearpaws. In Europe, the bearpaw type is the older,. bit in North America, the wooden snowshoe was the first kind to- be used. The Algonquin Indians were ' responsible for in- venting the use of hexagonal weav- ing and the selvage thong. Rec- tangular wearing, the use of the toe -hole, the pointed heel, nand the two cross -bars were invented by either the Athabascan or Algofu- quin Indians. , For modern snow shoeing, modified bearpaws or standards are best for bush work, while the long narrow styles are best for hard crusts or established trails: Snowshoeing technique is. a great deal simpler than skiing, particul- arly downhill and slalom skiing. Snowshoe's can also be used in places where skiing would be im- possible. During --ancient gimes, the snow- shoe was instrumental in pushing back frontiers, spreading culture, and extending communication lines. Although the modern snowshoe is seen more frequently in northern areas, it certainly has not, outlived its purpose.

He reads about the weddings and he snorts like all get out; He reads the social' doin's with a most derisive , shout, He says they make the papers for the women folks alone: Heli read-:'a`but the parties and d d he'll fume and fret and groan. He says of information it doesn't have a crumb= But you ought to hear him ,holler • when the paper doesn't come. He is always first to grab it and he reads it plumb clean through: He doesn't miss an' item,, or a want ad—that is true.
