FINDS TRADE COIN
We are in receipt of a communi-
cation from Mrs. Carl Burn (nee
Miss Catherine Mesmer) froln Mil-
verton a id formerly of Zurich stat-
ing that Mr. H. Porteous, manager
of the Bank of Commerce, Milver-
ton had handed th.em a little token
he had picked up in the streets of
Toronto, and thought as Mrs. Burn
had been a former Zurich resident,
it would be of some interest. The
article was an aluminum trade check
good for 5c. merchandise at the
general store of John Preeter, Zur-
ich, Ont. The writer is of the same
opinion as we are; Who dropped it?
And it's not such a small world after
all.

THE PLEBISCITE
The Dominion -wide Plebiscite of
the people of Canada taken on Mon-
day was not as largely voted on as
was possible. This was probably due
to the fact that there was no part
contest to get out the voters. How-
ever, the results • are as many had
anticipated, with the majority of
Canada rolling up a big "Yes' vote,
and the Province •of Quebec .rolling
up a big "No” majority. But the
total majority over 'Canada will be
in favor of "Yes" and the present
Donimion Government now will 'have
authority to prosecute the war effort
to whatever extent they see mostad-
visable.

Farmers Busy
We still hear the buzzing of trac-
tors in the fields, but they are gett-
ing over the last leg of the grain
seeding. There .may be left a few
acres for bean seeding, but due to
the falling market, well, we believe
in this neighborhood they can be
counted on the fingers of four hands.
Just Went Astray
On Monday last a team of horses
hooked to a grain drill gave a little
excitement to her driver; although
they were captured before any harm
was clone. Oh, Well- taking every-
thing else in consideration, there is
nothing wrong in it, if dumb ani-
mals do go astray]
