Both offences occurred in the early morning hours of Monday, April 1, which is known as All Fools' Day. Evidence regarding the false alarm charge will probably be air- ed today. Two other youths are charged in connection with the same offence. They pleaded not guilty and were remanded uptil today, with (bail set at $200 cash or $500 property in each case. In connection with the charge of impersonating an officer, Crown Attorney H. Glenn Hays explained that Mr. Lodge, who operates an ambulance service, received a call from the accused after midnight. Clark said he was Constable South and he asked that an ambulance be sent to the Ip ' ital. But when the am o tame arrived it there vas noone at the ho l her � who wanted it.; As a result of in- vestigation, it was discovered .that the call had been made by the accused from g pay phone, said the crown attorney. Looking at the youth, 'Magistrate Holmes suggested, "This was just a smart idea, is that it?" "Yes sir," replied the accused. 0 0 0 LAST LINKLATER LINK Occupation of a ,farm on the lue Water Highway north of Goderich by generations of Linklaters in (the course of over 100 years came to an end with the moving to Goderich of Roy Linklater.

A warm vain could do a lot of good to bring the soil into proper condition Ayr seeding and also help the growth of pasture and hay fields and tall sown crops.. The monthly Onitmatelogical report for this district shows that 2.04 inches of precipitation occurred for this district, which is slightly below average for March. The monthly mean temperature for this district was 33.5 degrees F., which is 5 degrees higher than normal for ,this area. This is possibly one explanation for the anticipation of an early seeding this spring. o WATSON—COX Eleanor Francis Cox, daughter of Mrs. Wilfred J. Cox, of Goderich Township, and the late their.

This was in 1929, the start of the depression years, and for sev- eral years Reg. wondered if he had made a mistake. About the latter part of 1931, however, the sun started to break through the gloomy depression clouds. Sale of cars started to climb and have been ever since. The present milestone will be celebrated by as 28th anniversary sale with offerings contained in a full page advertisement in this issue of The Signal -Star. All four sons --,Leonard, Alvirf; Ronald and Kenneth — are in business with their father now and will be active with him in this sale. After 18 years in the old loca- tion, Mr. McGee built his present spacious garage in which he has been carrying on business for the I past 10 years. In his first year in business, 1929, Reg. obtained the Chrysler -Plymouth dealership. The Dodge agency was added din 1933. Since being located in his present I garage, Mr. McGee has won a total 1 of seven efficiency awards donated by the Chrysler Company for ef- ficient ope ation. "Treatin customers fairly and giving them good service i -s my slogan," says Reg. lir addition to operating . the garage with his son,Rog. ha' three farms totalling 72,0 acre, on which he specializes .n pasturing Iierefordl beef cattle. Then, for a hobby, says Reg, •'I still like a good race horse." ( o — —a -o PermitsSougfrt •ove•e•oomeee•oeoceoeoi BANG - Don't drive- em until it's TOO LATE!
