BANDIT GETS. $1,600 IN BANK!
ROBBERY
A lone bandit, about 80 years of
age, held up the East London branch
of the Royal Bank of Canada last
Friday afternoon and made his
escape in a . wailing taxi with about
$1,600 in cash. He had previously
hired the driver to take hint to the
bank, with instructions to wait.
Handing over a nate which read
"this is a stickup, hand over the
cash", the bandit kept one hand in
his pocket as if holding a gun. The
teller, handing over one bundle of
bills, was instructed to "pull out the
drawer and hand me the rest." Rac-
ing out to the waiting taxi the ban••
lit ordered the driver to drive down-
town, There he jumped front the cab
and disappeared.
A member of the London staff is
Miss Mary E. Hovey, formerly of the
Clinton Branch of the Royal Bank.

STORM DAMAGE SEVERE
Orme of the worst stoma of the
season struck ,the Dungannon dist-
rict on Saturday evening about 8.30
when an electrical storm, accomp-
anied by rain, hail and wind of
cyclonic proportions, did much dam-
age. Trees in the path of the :storm,
which centred at Arthur Roach's and
Gordon Stewart's farms • on conces-
sion 4, Ashfield, were blown over
and broken off and chicken coops
timed over, which ' killed Maul, , of
the chickens. Some stock was killed
by the lightning also. Crops of earn
and!' any uncut fieldb of grain were
flattened',
Support Horne Bakers
Merchants are. facing .a difficult
situations, a situati n that' is largely
a product of the times, but serious,
none the loss,
Lecai bakers, in particular, find
that outside concerns are making it
harder and harder for 'established
places of business to make a living.
Dealers state that these firms, who
contribute practically nothing in
taxes to the upkeep of, the eoaunrirnity
and are putting local • men out of
work are providing a form of com-
Petition which is. difficult, if,not im-
possible, to combat.
Several' of these merchants have
pointed out this ,condition. In these
days when money is scarce, there
seems to be no sentiment in business.
But judged purely from the angle of
business, is it "good business" for
housewives to purchase their require-
ments froan out of town firms, to
the detriment of established merch-
ants?
erch-ants?
It is not. A town without stability
is a poor place in which to do busi-
ness. Stability is obtained in any
town, only through established,places
of business. It is the business man
with his store on Main Street who
snakes a bigger and better town.
Householders should reanember that
when they buy their requireemmts.
Fire At Seafor tail
Early Saturday morning a store
and dwelling house at Seafor'th be-
longing to' Mrs. Pinkney and oc-
eupied by three families was • badly
damaged by fire. The building is
situated across from the bowling
green at the south end of 'town, near
the •station. Being almost 75 years
old and. built mostly of lumber, it
was an •easy prey to the flames.
The store was first :to take fire and
the flames soon spread through the
double wall between it and the house,
occupied' by three families, Mr. and
lies. Henry Howes, Mr. and Mrs. B.
W'hyard, and Mrs. Pinkney. The
alarm was turned in at 1.05 a.m. and
firemen remained on the scene unti
six a.m. although the fire was under
control before that time. The loss
is said to be covered by insurance.
FISHERMEN .OBJECT TO
LIGHT HAULS
Along Lake Huron hauls of fish by
commercial fishermen have been light
this season. In some instances the
amount of fish taken does not come
near meeting operating costs.
The same condition exists among
fishermen working off Manitoulin
Island. They are inclined to blame
the department of game and fisheries
for catering too much to the tourist
anglers, to the detriment of those
who make their living by fishing.
"They (the Game and Fisheries
Department). have been robbing Peter
to pay Pau1,'5 said one fisherman,
who has been forced to cease opera-
tions.
The north channel and north shore
of Manitoulin was. at one time the
most profitable fishing grounds in
Ontario. The commercial men now
complain that their interests are plac-
ed second to the demands of the
tourists. There have been eighty-four
commercial fishing outfits operating
from various ports on the Island, and
of these twelve are known to have
retired from business, and others are
operating at a loss.

MADE MILLIONS FROM
PERFUME
Thirteen years ago Wilfred Hill,
71, started a perfumed hair oil com-
pany on about $10. The other day
he sold out to a big chemical com-
bine for $3,000,000.
Forty years, ago Hill took aver a
small chemist's shop in Birmingham,
England, and developed a healthy
bunts l by producing moustache
wax, But when moustaches went out
of fashion he lost heavily. Ise re-
couped by producing carbide and
lubricating' oil for bicycles, golf balls
and a type of vacuum cleaner, Then
he made his big discovery—a per-
fumed oil for the hair.
WAVES WASH UP MISSING
MONEY
So far the waters of Lake Huron
have yielded up $43 in bills, from a
roll'of approximately $116 which was
lost near the breakwater at Kincar-
dine. .
William Edmiston, Kincardine, was
the victim of the strange misfortune.
Standing in a rowboat to take a
pictiue of activities of swimmers and
divers at the breakwater, he was
thrown into the water when the boat
tipped over. The soon of money came
out of his pocket while he was strug-
gling back to the overturned boat and
the loss was not discovered till later.
The camera also was lost, along
with a pair of heavy diving boots
and other articles which were in the
boat.
Mr. Edmiston had been watching
operations of amateur divers. When
they were not as successful as plan-
ned, it was decided to go to shore
and get a pair of diving boots. This
was done• On the return- trip the
boat turned over..
Of the money lost $43 came to
the surface and was recovered. It
is doubtful if the rest will be found.

With the Scouts and Guides
A. ,meeting of the
Clinton Lions Club
Scout Committee '
and the leaders of
the Girl Guides,
Blrown iles, Cubs,
Scouts and Rovers
will be held on Monday evening in
the Scout Hall at 8.00 sharp. This
is an, important meeting and sickness
is the only excuse that will be ac-
cepted for noneattendance,
Last weekend the First Clinton
Rover Crew held a weekend eamp at,
Telebubt's farm on the Maitland River..
Everything came through the storm'
in first-class condition. Woodcraft,
signaling, aa'tificial resuscitation, life-
saving, first 'aid, knotting, swimming,
eating and • loafing occupied the
greater part of the time, A large •
camp -fire and varied programme
brought to a close a very successful
camp.
While the Clinton Girl Guides were
camping at Burke's Beach, eight'
Flint, Michigan, Girl Scouts and three
leaders, visited the eamp. They were
taking a three-day Gypsy Trail trip,
whidt is included in the itinerary of
the two-week camp period. They took
moving pictures of the camp, auto-
graphs were exchanged and after
fraternizing for about half an hour
they left, as they were expected in
the camp at Flint for supper. Camp
rates in the Flint, Michigan camp are
$8.50 per week.
