Eaton Whitely of the 6th has an excellent yield of fall wheat, one field averaging over 40 bushels to the acre. He sold a load of it in Clinton last Friday at 77 cents which was two cents more than neighboring markets. Mr. Whitely's spring wheat was a good crop also, it is the Arnetka variety. MEDICINAL RELIEF - I have been a suf- ferer of .Indigestion and violent ,Sick Headache for upwards of four years. I have consulted many of the Faculty, but have derived no material benefit from. any source, until I tried Perry Davis' Pain Killer, which, I am happy to state, has done me more good than all I • have ever tried. -Esther Briggs, Bolton, England. 75 years.ago September 10, 1910 TAKE IT AWAY - There is a large stone on Albert Street, north of the mill, which 'was dug out by the waterworks gang and which, if not removed, may cause a, bad ac- cident. Horses are continually shying at it. Why not have it hauled down and crushed for use in road making? TELEPHONES COMING TO BLYTH - The Rural Telephone Company is pushing the work and the system is expected to be in . working order in a few weeks. A NEW INDUSTRY - The News -Record has it on good authority that in the course of 10 days or so the Ontario Gazette will con- tain notice of the incorporation of the Clin- ton Motor Car Company. The intention is to begin at once building the 1911 models for which experienced mechanics are being secured. It will, however, be some time before the industry isin full swing. The company is taking over the Thresher Company property and though the buildings have large floor space, it is expected that next spring the roof will be raised and another Storey added. The 'importance of such an industry 'to Clintoncannot be overestimated, especially in view of the fact that there is a sufficiency of capital behind it. • 50 years ago September 19, 1935 .COAL OFFICE ROBBED- Clinton has not -.had the sensational case of breaking and entering for some time, but Tuesday night some persons, it is believed that two or three may have been implicated, broke into Mustard's coal Office, carried the-safeoutto the cleat shed end pried the;door open They took**PAM, itey the safe cointai , but, as it happened', that; was not,very lunch, only about VA, so the haul was not heavy.

That was the question the Clinton Recrea- tion Committee faced in a lengthy debate al their monthly meeting. They came to the decision to try and keep the pool open again next summer. This summer was a financial disaster for the pool. Revenue dropped nearly half to $2,692 from the $4,418 of 1974, and the pont operation rani in the red to the tune of.$7,349 this summer.
