Mrs.Crich had been in her usual

Luck favors some people all right.
While plowing on the Broadfoot
farm, Tuckersmith, the other day Mr.
Walter Dale noticed a bird's nest in
tree and d onlooking oolcitrg closelyat it
thought 'there was something fa
lar about the material with which
was built, He took it down and
wound a $1 bill from . among the
twigs, etc., which constructed the
nest. Of course the bill was some-
what tattered and torn but it could
easily be recognized for what it was.
On being presented at.:the bank it
was sent to headquarters for ex-
change.
Certainly one family of little bir-
dies this summer were started out
with a good financial standing. The
question is, "where did the money
come from?"
THE TOWN COUNCIL
The town council met on Tuesday
evening, Monday being a holiday, all
members present and Mayor Trewar-
tha in the chair.
After the reading of the minutes of
last meeting a communication was
read from Mr. Fred Hudie saying
that he was thinking of buying the
old evaporator property and finding
that the town •owned the land, ask-
ing terms on its use. Ou motion of
Councillors Paisley and Livermore it
was decided to allow Mr. Hudie to
use the land as long as he was run-
ping a factory, the property commit-
tee to arrange details. Mr. Ruffle in-
tends manufacturing vinegar.
'A long discussion took place about
he removal of a flower bed and
ountain at the MoBnight corner, but
nothing came of it.
Councillor Holmes asked why shale
was not used on Rattenbury street,
Reeve Elliott replying that it could
of be had only in carload lots,
which made it too expensive.
A permit for hospital wing was
resented and passed.
Under the head of new business
ouncillor Holmes` and Livermore
ntroduced a motion dis-
pproving of the Public Utilities
ommission's policy of collecting a
eposit before installing a. water-
orks service. Councillor Holmes, in
peaking to his motion said that this
olicy was causing a good deal of
issatisfaotion. Mayor Trewartha
aid that as Supt. Rumball was pre-
ent he might like to address the
ouncil on the matter, Mr. Rumball
xplained that the policy was adopt.,
d to save the commission from loss
case people had a service instal -
d, used it a month and then left
wn without paying up. Some of
e councillors thought there should
e a limit to the •, timethe deposit is
etained, that' it should be returned

as adopted and the .commission will
o doubt give the matter attention.

SOFTBALL PLAY-OFFS
The WearweIls won the first round
in the town softball league in the
best two out of three games in the
play-off games, defeating the Pros by
the close score of 17-46, the game
being played on Thursday evening,
last. The season's schedule eliminat-
ed Canada Packers and Clerks, leav-
ing the two contending teams to de-
cide supremacy in the finals. The
game was announced for 6 p.m. but
it was nearly half past when Umpire
T. Morgan called "batter up" to start
the game, the delay being occasioned
by a few of the Pros being late en,
tering the field. Pros were frst up
and were retired with one runner ov-
er
ver the plate. Wearvrellss packed a.
way 8 runs in their first. Both drew
blanks in their second but at the end
of the third Wearwells had added 9
to their already big lead retiring
Pros with another single and the
score stood 16-2. Pros then began.
playing ball and at the end of the'
6th had'tied the score, Wearwells
got their winning run in the. 7th and
last inning, the game having to be
called .on account of darkness.

ening the results of Thursday evening
were reversed, Pros winning over
Wearwells 125, a -third game will
be necessary to decide the winners
and cup holders fox this year. Pros
Were itt good farm from the start and
were retired scoreless only in one of
the 7 innings played while . Wear -
wells .had four round 0's on the score
chart, three ht the first and one at
the last of the line. Ross 'and Car-
rick each went the route, the former
turning in the, better work. Carrick
was not putting everything into his
tossing, allowing too many free trips
to ,first base. .Occasionally however,.
he showed form, and sent them over
the plate likea machine gun. An
occasional homer got a handfrom the
benches. ,
The line-ups were the same as . in

the Perth Huron hall game played

Wonder that Goderieh dropped a Hu -
Yon -Perth League game 14-1 to Clin-
ton in Agricultural Park here on
Thursday last. Brant's pitching was
the one remarkable and outstanding
feature of a game which fell flat so
far aa the local fans were concerned.
Mixing up_ an assortment of curves
and drops 'with a delivery of dazzling
speed, Brant had the locals swinging
high, wide and handsome, but ineffec-
tively. He was credited with nine
strike -outs. Tho 'locals scored early
in the game on a. walk and errors,
while Clinton' averaged two runs for
seven innings. Kirk refused to re-
tire and his outfielders had a merry
time chasing long drives'as far as the
race track on several occasions.
