There was a mild Rutter during the week over a boy who had been gath- ering empty whiskey bottles, alleged to have been found along the high- ways, and who turned out •to be a grandson of Hon. Mr. Lethbridge, Progressive Leader. Huron has become remarkably 'free from "emp- ties" of recent years. There is a sheltered lane -way near Alain street in Seaforth in which a few years ago there were always freshly emptied whiskey bottles lying around, and sometimes evidences of disgust- ing debauches. Today and for many hundreds of days there has not been a bottle thrown in this spot. The neigh- bors have been grateful for the re- moval of this nuisance by the Control Act. • HARVEST THANKSGIVING.
