GROCERS' BANQUET.
The National. Grocers gave a 'ban
neat en' Tuesdaer evening to the re -

tween forty and fifty were present,
including representatives froixi, KTiim-
eardine, Goderich Exeter and Seitz
forth, and several of ;the smaller
centres between.: The ba quet, which
is said to have been ,a first Class one,'
was served in Bartliff & Crich's res-
taurant, and when •it had been done
amp]e justice, to an adjou •nmeut was
made to the council chamber where
Mr, McNally, vice-president` and sales
tnadager of the -National Grocers, Mr.
Simpson and Mr. Turnbull each spoke.
The National proem is an organi-
zation composed of a number of
'wholesale houses which merged their
interests some time ago, closing nine
warehouses and calling in about sixty
travellers. Their idea is to zone
their territories and prevent a lot of
overlapping le salesmen. Their talk
was "shop," interesting principally
to those interested in the grocery
trade.

Mo.: 1. Elliott of •Dungaatnon,. who
was going east on Huron street, ran
into the Rev. A. Macfarlane, who was
driving north en Albert street. 'Mr.
Macfarlane had noticed the car emu-
ing. up Huron street} and had stopped,
to allow hini to erose, The other man,
not expecting hien to do this, had de-
cided to pass: behind him, with the re-
sult that he struck: hint broadside.
Mr.. Macfarlane's ear was consider-
ably damaged and Mr. Elliott's car
sustained soine damage as well. Ile,
however, admitted that he was 'in.the

THOSE SNEAII THIEVES.
A chain of garage robberies, ap-
parently the work of amateurs, was
perpetrated on Saturday night or
Sunday morning, when Bruce Berry's
gas station at 'Benefield was entered
and a number of automobile time and
about $5010 cash stolen. An entrance
was elected by boring holes around
the lock, which: was removed. It is
supposed that the same gang oper-
ated at Epp's garage, Varna,. and
Westlake's garage,k'IBayfield, 'high
were entered in a similar manner the
same night, and a quantity of goods
taken from welt, Tha thieves made
a clean get -away, leaving, apparently.
no clues to work on. Last year some
such thing happened at ICippen. It
will be a pity if this gang is not
caught. Provincial Constable White••
sides of Goderich is working on the
case.
