SHOULD SUIT KICKERS
During the past year expressions
of disapproval were heard on every
side of the choice of color combina-
tion used on car markers by the On-
tario Dept. of Higthways,' and the
big objection seemed to be that the
figures on the plates were not leg-
ible. When one observed the many
cars on the highways withmarkers
covered with `a grime of oil and dust,
figures a foot high with red barn
paint as a coloring would be no more
visible, However, the 1039 markers
with their jet black background with
white numerals and letters should
satisfy those not in„accord with this
Rev. K. McGou.Resigns As
Councillor
Ill -health has 'compelled Rev. K.
McGoun to resign: his position as.
councillor members of council were
informed by letter on Monday night
at the regular session, and, his re-
signation Was accepted with the
clerk being instructed to forward a
letter of regret from the emit -mil,
During his term, he has served as
chairman of the cemetery committee
and has impressed upon the members
the necessity of the erection of - a
mausoleum at the cemetery. At the.
meeting on Monday night council ap.-
proved payment of $25,00 for plans
for such a building.
Tewin of Waterloo asked council to
back them up in their opposition to
the present pasteurization law. They
seek an early repeal by the govern-
ment and are asking support of other
councils in the province to give added
weight to their appeal. After the
letter had been read and discussed
it was ordered filed. Speaking to
his motion to that effect Mr. Trewar-
tha said hefelt ithad little bearing
to Clinton since the local milk dis-
tributors had been forewarned by the
Medical Officer of Health, Dr. Shaw,
and were ready for the law when it
carne into effect. "If see can control
disease and protect health by pas-
teurizing it is a good idea" said
Reeve Livermore as he backed up
what Mr. Trewartha had said. Neith-
er felt' that the present law was any
hardships to either producer or dis-
tributor here. Dr Shaw was com-
mended for the way in which he had
handled the local situation. '
The Hospital AliAssociation's
re-
quested
that they be exempted from
paying rent for the town hall for the
Cooking School. It was revealed that
they had contributed in the neighbor-
hood of $800 toward hospital work,
most of which had been expended
on equipment.
The report of the Hospital Board
was reviewed in brief and all mem-
bers expressed themselves as well
pleased with the report. Mr. Man-
ning said that the per capita cost
per patient had been cut down .9
cents and although there is about
$4,000 in patients fees outstanding
most of it would be collectible..
Councillor Cook raised the ques-
tion "How is the Hospital Board
Elected?" It may be of interest to
know that the members of the board
and those attending elect two mem-
bers each year for a three year term,
the doctors of town and surrounding
villages and medical staff elect two
each year for a three year terns and
the mayor and reeve are ex -officio
members.
A petition signed by all the local
barbers was received' asking that'
council 'pass a bylaw to 'close all
bather shops in Clinton at 8 p.m.
each evening except Saturday and
evenings precedingpublic holidays.
This by-law was passed.
The relief situation. remains ' the
sabre as last .mantis reported Coun-
cillor Aiken only one family receiv-
ing assistance.
Before the motion to adjourn May-
or Elliott expressed the hope that all
members of council would find lit
convenient to attend the Armistice
Day service to be' held November 11.

Election Pot Simmering
For some little time now the pot
has been warming up with Reeve
Livermore and his avowed opponent,
Glen Cook, stirring the brew oc-
casionally in an "effort, oto cook a
worthwhile dish for election day.
Speaking impartially and neither
favouring n or supporting either
man's views, your jreporter leaves
with you for future consideration the
gist of a brief conversation with both
men on Monday evening.
Reeve Livermore. is now complet-
ing his second year. He says it takes
some time to get the run of things
but has- something to show for his
efforts and cites as an example that
County 'Council has seen fit, under
pressure exerted by him, to build a
new bridge on the Bayfield road,
known as Trick's Bridge. He has
other things in view. for Clinton's
good if given another term.
Cook on the other hand feels "The
unwritten law" should prevail. Eight
years as ,councillor is a' long term
and he feels it is time he either
stepped up or out of municipal af-
fairs. He too has things we wants
done that would benefit the town and
believes in the old saying " If you
want anything done right,do it your.
self.". Naturally he cannot put this
into force unless elected as reeve.
Both then have their hats in the
ring. It should be a, fair fight and
they will. tell the voters all about'
it on nomination night. In the mean-
time it wouldn't be a bad idea to be
thinloing things over. The reeve and
councillors have important posi-
tions with a lot of responetbility:
Electing them is your job.
Good Response to T. B.
Meetings
Already Mr. J. C. Shearer has re
ceived six signed petitions favoring
the T.B. restricted area plan though
the last of the meetings in the eight
northern townships ,(22 in all) were
not completed until ' Monday night
the last being held in Auburn.
The response to the completed
series of meetings is exceptionally
good. The. percentage of signature
ranges from 75% to 95%, Two men
are selected in each school section
to canvass the farriers who, if they
are in favor of the plan, sign th
petition which is then sent on to th
agricultural representative. _ Th
trend of public opinion in favor o'
the plan is evident in the following
results; S.S. No. 4 Turnberny, 81.8'!
in favor; S. S. 11 Morris, 93.7%
Wroxeter, 75i4; Fordwich,7b-%c; S
S. No. 2 Grey, 95%; S.S. 11 Grey
85.7%r.
After the Royal Winter Fair th
southern ten:tory will be eoverec
with meetings scheduled in eigh
townships.- A. meeting will be helc
here on the 19th.

DISGUISED ASS' CAI.!',
BAGS DI.iCK
Here's the storythat is being. told
-take it or leave it. A well-known
young ninrod went out hunting
ducks and came to a field 'where
there was a good sized flock of them.
However, the ducks were settled in
an open field with no covering by
which the hunter could get close
enough for a shot. The wily chap,
then resorted to strategy and his
knowledge of wild life. Knowing
the ducks were unafraid of cattle,
he corraled two calves in the field,
some distance away from the birds,
n.nd placing an arm about. the neck
of each, led: thein. close to the. ducks.
Thus hidden. he was able to get with-
in close range of..; the, game and he,
arrived home" with three ducks.
