At least when the Brine County trac- tor and drags gulled np lilts wcelc the officials at Lite township sat bath to patiently, and hope for the heat. Over two and a halt months ago, the sink -hole suddenly begau slnle� ing until Lhe roadway had gone clown a full twelve feet, The reel dents or the township made a strong complaln•t to the cot -mull and action was undertaken. Tills Was 001 the first time that the council had to start filling in that self -swine hole, In 1921, the reeve and Township council under- took to 1111 the note, Trees, debris and clay were dumped. in, A farmer driving over the hole the next spying had to make a race for it, when the ground began to quiver underground and sink down, From then on it has been a con- tinual battle between municipal au• Utorities and the `eluk-hale." Cannot Reroute Road During this summer when the hole appeared they were determined that they would once and for all stop all the sinking of money into a hole. As it was located near a corner, and immtediately in fornt of Eldon Eckenswiller's gateway, they could not reroute the road. Bruce County authorities loaned the township a caterpillar tractor with a drag outfit for drawing in clay. A bank of a hill in the Eck- enswiller farm was attacked and dragged into the hole. For eight , weeks that county outfit oe men and machinery dragged in an average of 400 cubic yards of earth a day, Every night they left work the hole would be Oiled up and the roadway passable. Next morning it would have dropped down at least two feet. They kept on and now after a chance to settle of near- ly two weeks, the roadway is stay- ing up. Now, however, after eight weeks of work and the dumping in of ap- proximately 28,000 cubic yards of clay the hole has been filled. That is to say for the time being. The "sink -hole" has become a ,Sort alt wonder to all the inhabitants of the neighboring counties. Sun- day afternoons, may always be 'counted upon for a crowd of people, to view this great hole that keses in swallowing up the earth. HEALTH, by Grant Fleming, M• D, A HEALTH bER1,ICE OF THE CANADIAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION AND LIFE INSURANCE COMPANIES PLEASE DO NOT SPIT We have placed the title for this article in tbe form of a request rather .than of a command or a threat. It might very well. be re- garded as a plea for the protection of childen. It would be In the In- terests of all, but it is the children who are particularly menaced by the careless, thoughtless or ignor- ant Individuals who spit Promiscu- ously. The germs of disease live and multiply In the human body. A per- son may lire such germs in lois body and yet be apparently well. There are thousands et parsons with tuberculosis Who do not know that they have the disease and these persons are passing out myr- iads of germs in their sputum. These germs leave the body in its secretions, and the most common way is in the secretions of the mouth and nose. Mouth and nolo secretions should always be thought of as containing disease germs, atel should be avoided accordingly. There Is ne reaeon for spitting as so many do. It is simply a bed habit which should never be started, It It is already a habit, then it should be broken without delay. It. is 001 only disgusting to 061101• people, but it constituter; a yore real clanger In them, 1u the act of spitting, droplets a'•' sprayed around, and as ether In- dividuals conte in contact with these droplets, they are exposed to infec- tion by the germs of disease from which the spltter may suffer, Most of the common communicable dl.• eases are spread chiefly by -n-:1 dorpleL, Infection, and the danger that results ft'anl the sp1'aylu0 around of sputuin and saliva cannot be exaggerated because it Is so very serious, Sputum on the floor or on the ground is dangerous, Children must WRIQXETER, ONT. and will play, and white they play, BRUSSELS, BROSSEI..

Listowel Board Purchases Coal Supply From Atwood Fire flared at the September meeting of the Listowel Board rf Education when Trustee 0. H, Finit- beinei' inquired into the purchase of coal for the high school from an outside merchant. The purchasing committee bought a 45 -ton car of coal from an Atwood dealer in August. Previously preference had always been given the local merchants. Chairman Zurbrigg ask- ed dor an explanation from the committee and was told Listowel dealers would not give a satisfac- tory price charging the board more than the ordinary ton rate In. town. R. J. Russell, chairman of the pur- chasing ,committee, insisted "eve asked them to reconsider the price atld •they averted it for over 10 clays, then we went to Astwood," He said the coal was purchased for $3.25 a ton although cartage from. the 61, P. R. tracks to the school had to be paid by the board. Listowel dealers wanted $9,50• a ton. "By the tran- saction the board sabed $30," said Mr. Russell. Mx, Finkbeiner con- tened for the little difference In price after cartage had been paid the purchase should have remained in Listowel. "After all the mer- chants pay taxes here and are en- titled to a legitimate profit. They are not in business for their health," he said. Dr. Pratt, a member of the committee, said they would go outside of Listowel again if necessary. Newest Star Is Brighter Than Sun 4 new star 500,000,000 times brighter than the sun has flashed across the scientific sky. Because of its great distance from the earth, however -3,000,000 light years—it is visible only through the most powerful telescopes. Discovery of the "supernova" was announced by Dr. Fritz Zwicky of California Institute of Technology. Dr, Walter Baade of Mount Wil- son Observatory said that the new supernova is apparently the most luminous of 15 known to science. He estianated the star is about 10 times brighter than the average super- nova and 500,000,000 times as bright as the sun.

Stressing 1h1e need for some cheat on the growing population of allay felines, J, D. Elder, managing director of the society, said that al- though a total of 385 cats was des- troyed last month, there are still too many homeless cats 1n tbe city The plan provides that in future only neuter cats will be adopted out by the society, and a charge of $1 will be made for each neuter cat given out, But to further the rescue work, the School Board will allow 7.5 cents as a trade-in allow- ance on any alley cat brought in to be exchanged for a neuter cat. More Provincial Highways While in town last week James Ballantyne, Liberal member for South Huron, stated that approxi- mately thirty-seven miles of county roade have been taken over by the province.

Mr. Ballantyne also stated that the road from Holmesville via Varna to Zurich has been incorpor- ated in the county road system. Let People Know ! The merchant who succeeds is the one who has what people want and lets them know a- bout it. People are busy to- day. They will not take time to shop where merchants in- sist on keeping their wares and prices secret. The busy stores are those who send to their customers' living romps the home newspaper containing the store's advertisement 02 Products and prices, Adver- tising has become of the great- est service as a timesaver to the busy housewife. She knows from the advertising where she can buy and what she has to pay. She does her shop- ping In a third of her original shopping time.
