To the Editor of the Times: - There appeared an article in the Times last week regarding g dogs funning at "lar ge 'eontx axy' :to' 'the Village by-law. This by-law, he claims, is being entirely ignored, which is true, but I wish to draw the attention of the writer, that the Council has done its full -duty, as a Council,to provide' a means of pro- tection against the nuisance of dogs running at large. The violation of this by-law becomes a case to be de cicled in the courts and it is the duty as well as the privelege of every citizen to lay an information against any one who wilfully or carelessly refuses or neglects to comply with any of the town by-laws or any other law enacted in Canada, Therefore I wish to exonerate' the Council' of the charge of being negligent in en- forcing the law. 1 agree with the writer, that the violation of the by-law in question; Let Us Help Yo See •Better t'ittle Eye troubles neglected to day; become the pig Eye troubles of tomorrow. Temporary use of glasses NOW, mayR Save PERMANENT NNT use LATER. Our examination will tell uvhe•thet or not you neel Glasses. SATISFACTION TJ GARANTEE S •°a% , . ,L •ittoli1. Registered Optosnotret, is a menace to citizens of, oxer , town and should be stopped, While it might seem a hardship to keep dogs in close confinement, it is equally, discouraging, after devoting consid- erable time and cost to beautify the Montes, to have it destroyed, 1 hope in. future every citizen will realize their authority and act occordingiy- Yours truly, W. D. Sanders, Reeve, ENTRANCE, CLASS DO WELT The fife= en pupils • who \role on the, Entra : , "were, were all success- ful and fourteen took honors. Misa Muriel Howald succeeded ' in winning the two Scholarships, one for the town and one for the Exeter district. Several of the pupils were highest in Subjects. The showing on the whole is of remarkable . achievement and the pupils and leacher, Mr. G. S. Howard, are to be congratulated and may justly feel proud of their suc- cess. WHO OAN BEAT 'TRIS' Mr. Henry Reynolds, of Victoria Park, town, picked from a single bush' in his fine garden, twenty-one quarts of excellent gooseberries. The bush they were .picked, fron was an extra` Iaige' one, •'measuring nine feet across. Mr. Reynolds considers this a record yield and hard' to beat; andwe second the motion.: NO 37EARTH 01+' TEACHERS There isr eve y indication that there wilIbe no shortage of school teachers to fill all the available schools throughout Ontario after the holidays. : By the immense number opening of school after midsummer of teachers whohave c li ' lull Fred ar.
