The city of Stratford will shortly

will be extended Westerly through
Zurich to Grand Bend or Bayfield.

Draining the big Hay township
swamp is a move in the right died -
tion and the difficult contract will

pleted. Similar moves are being
Imade in London township, Middle-
sex Co., and Ellice municipality in
Perth. These are signs of the times
and indicate that Ontario is on a for-
ward march. A 2000 acre celery
garden will be opened up near Dutton
Elgin County.
HICK'S FORCASTS
A Regular Storm Period runs from
the 22nd to the 27th, being at its cen-
ter on the 24th. The same astronomic
causes are still in force at this time as
during the two preceding periods, call-
ing for the same watchfulness and
precaution. Equinoctial gales and
cyclones will move northward from
the equator, possibly reaching our
south coast regions at this. Counter
storms of rain, sleet and blizzards
may be expected out of the northwest
at the- same time. Unreasonable
cold will prevail far into the south
during the last days of February.
HOCKEY
On Friday evening a lively game of
hockey was played at the Hensall
rink between Crediton and Zurich,
resulting in a victory for Crediton by
the score of 6 to 5 the score at half
time being 4 to 2 in favor of Crediton.
Our boys had by far the best of the
game in the last half, but by a few
individual rushes, Crediton won the
game. The ice was soft therefore
making it hard work for the players.
This, is the third game our boys have
lost this winter, and if they play an-
other game we wish them better luck,
but all the boys have to say is "If
*a only had a• RINK", and why
shouldn't we have it?. Following is the
line up:-Tollis Wurm goal, Dutchv
