It really is -quite a nice lit- tle water fall, though, notwithstand- ing the: lady's disappointment. The -Dominion Goyernrnetit, in its 'hoed conversion scheme, is 'offering :the holders of Dominion (ran 'and' ' Victory _ Bonds an opportunity of extending the investment for a twee- ty-five year term..,The interest at taehed ie ane percent, lower, but those wire know say this 'is a gener ons rate considering the rates'offer- ,,ed in London and .New: York at the -present time, while the security, 'the Dominion, itself; is the best. -Of course the rate called for in the bond ''now held. will be .paid flus ing the life time of the present =bond; extra eau; 'pons, being attached. to the new bonds for this purpose, •The conversion of these bonds, •some of them duethis. year and each year until 1934, into.; a long-term' -vestment will tide; the Government .over the present financial stringency. and the reduction.in the rate of in- terest will save the Government much .money .annually. .The new . bonds will not be tax f ,,, of course, ex- cept up to ..the time of the maturity :of the present tax4ree Victory bonds.. Tax free Monde will not a- -gain be offered and are not • eonsid- •ered necessary as 'the Government 'could borrow money at reduceiJ rates ' to pay off these- obligations as they become dues It is' -hoped, however, ee that Canadians will' take advantage of this offer' and 'Continue their in* vestment with the 'Government Any ehartei•ed' bank will iitake the tranis- -fer` without chargeto the bondholdr ,.er, - - r.' , At the council meeting last week and at the committee -meeting pre- ...ceding re-'•ceding it eensider"able time was - spent , in discussing' ,the advisability • of placing a step: along Victoria "street on the east. side, where the sidewalk is high, -and' .also at the west side of the postoffiee. But the matter was left over, as "the majoi•- `ity of the council felt that' this was not the year to add 'anything to maintenance costs. But that step is needed, has always been needed, and unless the paving of the front street makes some difference, when . the time comes to have .,it paved, it will always be needed.. .There are six business places along that block and when , cars ,drive up to any one of ' them and• people alight they have to take a very big step indeed to gain the walk.,, The step should ' have been placed when the ereedwcty was macadamized, as it 'was along the • east side of Albert street, ;north of Rattenbury. • As for the„spot• west' of the .post - office it is an awkward and danger- ous spot, The.writerewalks oven that • snit from three to six tames a day and knows it well. The step up is awkwardly high and•there is besides a rough edge of a water gutter, nlaeed there when the .road, was mac- adamized, and which has been expos- ed by wear and tear until it. stands up -three or four inehes, . You have •to • step over that and up onto the walk. It may be all right for people with very Long legs but for the or- ••dinary:person 0 step up is something • rf an effort, Short skirts, when they arrived, were certainly a boon to the women who frequently walk that way. Sante pe'eple object that a step at either of these places would into*, fore with car traffic but there is no need that they should, They might be built to tsper off at the end and with a curve down to the roadway which would do away with any dan- ger to traffic. And certainly those wile walk should have some consid- eration. The News -Record is not advocat- `ing That these steps ,be placed this year, unless the street committee can economize legitimately and so save enough to do it, but these iimprove- ineuts should be kepth mind and something done , about them when 'possible. -VOICES FROM THE DIM PAST - Extracts From Nwspaners Printed In the • Sixties ' From .a copy of The Clinton Cour- ier dated Jan. 25th, 1861, sent to es with a copy of The New Era dated April 12th, 1866 and addressed to 'Donald McKenzie, by Miss McKenzie of Stanley township, We learn that Wheat in the winter • of 1861 was selling at 51.00 to $1,05 per bushel, that is fall wheat, Spring 'wheat was quoted at 80e to 820; Oats, 20c, barley 40c to 45e, peas 40c to 46c, (does anyone ever much lour $5.00, oatmeal, per 10 Y buy that much. •eattneal now?) ,2.50, mutton 50 to '6c, beef 4c to 5c, pork 4% to 5%, hay $7.50 to $7.75,, potatoes 20e to '25e, apples (per bus.), 75e, butter 15e, tub butter 121/cc, eggs 12%, wood (seasoned) $1.50 to $1.75 green '$1.01) to $1.25.
