Montreal For Free Booklet HOME PAINTING MADE EASY SOLD BY AE & THOMPSON Wingham COMMUNICATIONS Wingham, Ont., May 19th., 1925 The 'Editor, Dear Sir: Would you kindly call the attention of those people, who through thought- lessness or plain disregard of their neighbors rights, leave their hens at large to wander at their own sweet will' and destroy what they wish of the surrounding gardens. Every Spring and Sutnmer many of us suffer through such conduct on the part of this type of person The fact that they know their , hens are vigorously scratching up the flower and vege- table gardens so laboriously put in by busy people makes no difference to their self complacence, and if they were asked to keep their fowl off ones premises, they would be quite indig- nant and consider the one who made the request very impertinent. I hope this will draw their attention to the fact that it is unlawful for their hens to invade their neighbor's property, Yours ,truly, "A Sufferer" Wingham, Ont., May 19th,, 1925 The Editor, Winghlm Advance -Times Wingham. Dear Sire I notice a paragraph in your last issue to the' effect that a German can- non is about to be placed on Memor- ial Park, Like all other citizens of our town. I am tremendously proud of our Memorial and I think it is complete and perfect as it now is. Why spoil the quiet beauty of that consecrated corner by placing on it, at the foot of the monument to the (brave dead, one of the horrible instru- ments of death and destruction that helped to send our men to their pre- mature grave? .Surely, if we must have a German cannon a more fitting place for it could be found -than 'on Memorial Park which needs no tro- phy of war to embellish it. The fact that such things are being done by other municipalities. does , not make it appropriate. Yours very truly, Mc.
