Milne Slugged On Head With Stick Of Wood • Police are investigating a mysteri- ous attack made Friday night: on Dr. W. J. Milne, at Blyth. • The doctor had just stepped out of his car in his garage when an unkown man slugged him on the head from behind with a chunk of hardwood. The victim fell as he turned toward the house. The thug ran. It is thought by authorities that robbery was not the motive. Although Dr. Milne, had a large sum of.money in his pockets, no attempt was made to take it. The night was very dark and the only clue is that the thug wore an imitation fur coat, Apart from the bump on the head, there are no injuries, Dr. Milne is dis- turbed over the affair. If he has en- emies, he says, he does not know of them.

TOLD HURON COUNTY • TURNS DEFICIT INTO SURPLUS Auditors' Report Shows County in Wonderful Financial Positions, With a number of Ontario munici- palities in defaultaof their principal and interest payments on debentures and others facing a similar situation,. the good old Coenty of Huron, some times refereed to as being behind the times and old fashioned, greatly proved its financial position in 1934. and was never in better shape. This. was revealed in the auditor's repeert of F. P. Gibbs, made public Monday.. Four years ago a retrenchment Program was instituted and. a pay- as-you-go policy adopted, a policy the Ontario Goverrunent is terging upon municipalities today. The auditor's report shows that the excess in 1934 of current revenue ov- er expenditures was $40,727.47, an im- provement of $24,228,84 over 1933. The current deficit of $83,707.34 as at December 31, .1988, has been ab- sorbed and a current surplus of $5,- 616.49 set tin, so there has been a net current improvement in the county's financial surplus of $39,323.83. Ar-. rears'of taxes have also been material- ly reduced. Bank loatis have been re- duced from $105,000 to $58,000 and $2,000 less interest was paid in 1934 than in the year previous. All through the exhaustive report is reassuring .and optimistic and the system. of .accounting installed last year is praised as being conducted in an able manner by E. H. Erskine, the county treasurer. • SPECIAL SERVICES AT ST.
