stop Clinton's winning streak of sev-
en straight games in the second half.
of the schedule. The game wasn't
a very good one, as it Iacked pep.
Clinton led from the fourth inning
by the shore.. of 6-3. Then Clinton
made some .bad , plays .and Grand
Bend tied it up. Clinton tried hard
to get a run but couldn't do it and
Grand Bend succeeded in getting 3
more and won the game easily.
BRANCHING OUT
Messrs.' Sutter and Perdue, who
lave carried on a-- hardware and
plumbing business in :Clinton fol•
same time, have decided to branch
out into the furniture and undertak-
ing business. Mr. J. R. Walker of
Toronto, who has had considerable
experience, will have charge' of the
undertaking department and they
will take over the store now occu-
pied by Mr, W Robinson as a grog
eery', which was purchased by them
when they bought their present
stand, This puts Mr. - Robinson. out
of a stand and there are very few
vacant in town. -
It is encouraging to see our busi-
ness men branching out, instead of
retrenching, as many have had to do,
and with three young energetic men
in charge this business ought to suc-
ceed. It is a coincidence that the
only similar business in town is also
a combination of hardware, furni-
ture.and undertaking. 194th •a large
country to draw upon, however, both
should be able to make a decided
"go" of it.

HAS IMPORTANT O'IiFICE
Mr. James A. Tucker„ a member
of the aldermanic council of Saska-
toon, Sask., and a for -finer citizen of
Clinton, was recently= elected presi-
dent of the Union of, Saskatchewan
Municipalities at a convention held
at Estevan, '
The Western Municipal News of
July had the following to say about
the newly -appointed president:
"The chief officer ;Lor the •coming
year will be Alderman, James Tucker
of Saskatoon. • Mr. Tucker steps up
into the Presidency after experience
on the executive committee and as
vice-president and needs no introduc-
tion to Saskatchewan municipal
men. Mr. Tucker has dots of energy
and plenty of ideas :and a fatuity
for expressing theta. Although he
has a fund of humour and is quiek
at repartee he never loses sight of
the seriousness of the business be-
fore him."
Mr,, Tucker's Clinton friends will
be glad to hear that he is making
his influence felt in his new home in
the West.

GIVING KIDS AN OUTIM'G
The children of the Children's Aid
Society at Godezieh are being en-
tertained by motor drives during
the month of August, one outing
each 'week, under the auspices of
the ,Stratford Life Underwriters' As-
sociation of Canada.
The first drive was given by Mr,
Ii'I, T. Carless, vice-president, Clin-
ton, and Mr. Harold Lawson also of
town has offered his car and time
for this week's drive. Mr. Geo. Ro-
berton has also offered his car for
the next week, so the Clinton repre-
sentatives are doing their share
nobly,
This undertaking is purely in the
interest of the well-being of the
children of the home in ,question, who
have no family to care for them, and
it is hoped other organizations may
interest themselves, as many have
Already, in helping in some manner
to give some spark of enjoyment to
these little under-priviliged ones,
HAVE YOTJ SEEN THEM?
Have you seen the display of
gladioli at the Clinton Inn, just a-
cross from The News -Record office?
it is certainly worth a onto over,
and the probability is that you'll
want to go again. There are some
of as fine specintents of this showy
flower as you will sec anywhere,
some being exceptional.
The gladioli were grown for the
most part by Mr. Inkley of the Inn,
and Mr. W. J. Cook, who always
has some exceptional Spechnents,
while Miss Cuninghame has a spike
or two and she and Mr. Sharp put in
some specimens of dahlia and other
flowers,
bi . Inkley and Mr. Cook are anx-
ious that Clinton should put on a
flower show but it is too late this
season to think about it. However
it is not too soon to think -about it
for next year and there is no reason
at all why Clinton should not prrt on
a geed show.
Mr. Inkley intends keeping thin
display on as long as there are any
flowers offered and he has a fine
garden of his own, Anyone who has
any good specimens of any variety of
flower is asked to bring it, in anklet,
the citizens see what can be grown.
Clinton has in the past put on
some fine flower shows and might
do so every year.
