BUSINVJASS BLOCK SOLD
Mr Charles Greb, of Berlin, was in
the village on Wednesday and while
here closed the deal by which Mr J
Preeter gets possession of the brick
block and premises in which he bas
been doing business for many years.
Mr Preeter is one of our leading mer-
chants and it is a good omen for our
town when such men have enongh
faith in the future of it to invest in
valuable property.
The meeting held in the Town Hall
on Friday evening in the interests of
hydro was well attended. Mr F Hess
Sr., acted as chairman. Mr G H
Stanley of Lucan addressed the meet-
ing and the way in which he handled
the subject showed that he had made
a'thorough study of the same. The
many interesting comparisons and
points referred to by him helped much
to enlighten the minds of many rho
were in doubt, In his closing remarks
he touched on the hydro -radial schemes
now ofmuch interest to many sections
of Ontario and he stated on good au-
thority that Zurich was on the radial
map and that when the scheme has
been worked out a radial line would.
connect our village with outside pointse
The meeting was an enthusiatic on t
and the yote on Monday shows tint
the residents of Zurich are up and
doing when the interests of our village
are considered.

The vote on the two by-laws on
Monday, giving the Police Trustees of
Zurich power to enter into a contract
with the Hydro -Electric Commission
of Ontario for a supply of hydro-
eleotric power and to issue debentures
to cover the cost of construction and
equipment within the corporation,
was carried almost unanimously, Out
of one hundred and eleven votes polled
one hundred and five voted for and
six against the by-laws. Considerable
interest was taken in the voting and
by noon oyor half had voted.
It will likely be October or Novem-
ber before the power will be turned on
here as the construction of the line
from Exeter will take codsiderable
time and the Commission is Woking`
hard to keep up with the demand for
hydro power.
Many interesting points wars
brought out during the contest, and
Much figuring was done, but as a
matter of fact, it is impossible to get
at the exact cost of everything con-
nected with the system. The guaran-
tee we }ave from the commission is
that all supplies, etc., will be put in
at cost price, and a system built that
will be permanent, If we take, for
evample, other towns the size of Zurich
which have installed hydro, we will
find that all are well satisfied with
the cost of it and the service maintain -
