Did a certain Fifth Former get fooled when she went out in the hall and found her coat hot there!` She really thought we were getting revenge on her. After questioning the innocent -looking faces around, her, the light dawned and she' suddenly gasped and said; "Oh, I left ,if down stairs." Our previous warning has had an effect.

You can even see that he dreams abo4t a lovely blonde„ de-; ]icious foods, expensive garbs, all ar- rayed in a warm palm, green clim- ate, and when he finally wakes up ,in an English period, his jaws are mov- ing a mile a minute, without making a sound. Was that the result of his dream, or did he really have some- thing in his jaws? Well, at fast we've found out •the advantage of being tall and having long legs. "Spike" sure put them to use one English period when he just lifted his legs and walked right over the row of desks, as if he didn't even see them, and there's a rumour that he's a bad one for seeing things that aren't there.

Firemen worked all afternoon be- fore the blaze was brought under con- trol about six o'clock in the evening; and the fire fighters had to remain on duty in shifts all Saturday night to combat rekindled outbreaks. The work of the Fire Brigade on Saturday. deserves special recogni- tion. It should be pointed out that the members of the brigade receive no salary or pay for time when at- tending fires, and this year, particu- larly, their duties have been particu- larly heavy- and exacting, because of the numerous false alarms over some months. They deserves and should have the clbsest co-operation of the council in the purchase of the hest fire -fighting equipment it is possil?le to secure. Fortunately there was a heavy downpour of rain all afternoon and no wind, which helped to confine the fire, Otherwise, the large Duncan Shoe Factory across the street to the south and the Excellence Flour Mills on the O.N.R. might have been en- dangered by the clouds of flying em- bers. Eight employees of the finishing department and four others employed on construction were on the floor on Saturday afternoon when the fire be- gan: C. Schultz, Ralph McFadden, Harvey Beuerman, Ken Tebbutt and Gordon. Dupee, all of Seaforth; Harry Beuerman and Alvin Price, of Brod- hagen; P. Present, of Egmondville; Harry Hart, Jim Morris, Arnold Mil- ler, of Seaforth, and A. R..Avery. Mr. Avery was at work finishing the last window at the west face of the upper storey of the old bending. Two oth- ers, employed on construction, Nor- man Parke and Joe Burns, had just gone down the stairs and passed out the main' entrance when they saw flames bursting from the •building. The -•furiuture ,plant began opera- tions here 11 years ago, manufactur- ing cedar chests, bedroom and dining room novelty furniture. Seventy-one employees were on the staff of the plant, and it was planned to employ more when the new addition to the factory had been completed. No ma- chinery or equipment has been in- stalled in the new part of the build- ing as yet; it had been expected that it would be in operation early in 1946. Estimates and plans are being con- sidered for the reconstruction of the old portion of the building as prompt- ly as possible, and its appearance will harmonize with the type of con- struction used in the new. building. The firm's expansion program will, of course, be delayed, but will be carried out Salvage operations commenced Tuesday morning -and all employees are re-engaged in the salvage work. If the rebuilding program is carried out, every employee will be utilized in rebuilding and, consequently there will be no extensive layoff. The factory is owned and operated by Enos Boshart and Lewis Boshart, sons of the late John Boshart. Ina: axldatxtYri , Qiwgotl:f+^ d MAs. L?*F'.0 e< .,49n and slit,. ane.
