Brussels dealers have experiment- ed with the importation of the Al- berta coal and have found that the public, far the most part, is willing ' to use the Western fuel if it could be procured in sufficient quantities and at a reasonalale price. Prices Here in the past have varied from $13.50 to $15 per ton, laid in the cellar.

O'Neil gave evidence only after strong ar- gument by his counsel concerning the effect on any future trial that might be held.

Drivers' Permits, Provincial highway officers have been notified from the department to rigidly enforce the section of the Highways Act having to do with drivers' permits, and henceforth mo- torists are liable to be held up at eerier time on the roads and asked to show their licenses. The act dealing with permits came into force last year, but up to date considerable laxity has been shown. It has been specially pointed out to the officers that no excuse is to be accepted for _irivers not having possession of their per- mits when accosted. Having left them at home or at the 0±108, or like rea- sons, will get scant consideration. Coming to Grand. March 23-24 - Smile, Brother, Smile.

Proctor, Secretary of the Women's Christian Temperance Union, (Brussels, has received two letters in regard to the recent rose(- utions sent to George Spotton, M. P., and to the Prime Minister. The re- plies are ae follows:- Dear ollows:Dear Madam: I ani instructed by the Prime Minister to acknowledge the receipt of a resolution passed by the Women's Christian Temperance Union of Brussels, urging that steps be taken to control the movement of liquor from Canada to the United States. Mr. King asks me to assure you that he will take an early op- portunity of discussing this matter with his colleagues. Your faithfully, Harry Ballwin, Secretary. Dear Mrs. Proctor: -I have just received your resolution and, as you know, I am heartily in accord with it. It is right along the lines which I have pointed out to our own people for the last ten years. The Liberal ad- ministration here kept granting lir.- enses to new distilleries to manufact- ure more and more liquor. A ship- load would be cleared by the Cus- toms, say at Belleville, or many other Wee ports, tonight with a cargo of liquor for Cuba, and would be back in the morning for` a new load, The Government and the people of Can- ada knew this was going on. Trucks would meet these (boats, and these truckloads would in turn be unloaded on to high-powered cars and shot through every hart of Ontario. This made the 0. T. A. ineffiocient. I stand now just where I stood before ntv election. I shall record my vete whenever the opportunity arises in accordance with your resolution. And further I will always be prepar- ed to vote for the total prohibition of the manufacture or importation of alcoholic liquors. I will always be delighted to state my stand on any question to the good people of North Huron, Your , eery truly, George Spotton, SCANDAL "Little Change in Men's Trousers This Spring," says a headline. The headline writer is a (Harried man, we take it. • .•..•. m We wonder what Orval Whitfield and Fred Hunter were chasing ,1 poor little kitten up a tree on 'Sate ul'dey-or were they trying to get it down?

It looks like a lively summer of the highways. •: h •:• Was it any Brusselites that had their car searched in Seaforth? We understand they had to produce their "licked" papers, but evergthing was o.k. Old friends are glad to ,00 that Rev. D. T. L.
