WORTH 'TAKING Myr naany men of to -day in Wingham, knowing what they do about the success of the Ford automobile would jump at the chance of investing their money? It is a well known fact that the Ford Auto- mobile Company has manufactured since its existence nearly sevenenillions of autos at)profit of one hundred and twenty- five millions of dollars to those who had the nave, t� back their judgement. This same automobile was built for the masses and not the Classes, with over one hundred cOmpetitors. Remember every Ford own- ers a prospect for Aero Cushion Inner Tireix as Well as its coMpetitors because of the Met that they symbolize the true nat- ional wateh:word of the hour "ECON- OMY" and Areo Cushion Inner Tires have no gompetitors, The percentage of peofit to our' cotnpany on one set of ford innertires by far ' exceed the profit made on a 'ord,autmobile. This is the Opportunity that now pre- sents itself tei you. Have you the nerve to let it go by? Or will you aet quickly as yonr chances are limited. It does not take much time to figure it out, just coin-, mon business sense, Many of the well known businees men in the tewn of Wingharo and our neigh - neighbouring towns have already purchas- ed stock and many applications are also on the books of the coinpany and it is claimed by those who know that the thence to buy is limited. , The stock is on sale at the office of the company at the par value of one hundred dollars per share. We invite all Who wish to become ite- terested to visit our offices' where we will be glad to furaish all inforMation that may be desired as well as to show the tire, Osier one hundred prominent business Men of Wieglierni have had the pleasure of riding on the Aero Cushion Inner Tire and alt have unanimously declared them- telvee in faerour of this 'tire and defer that had they not known before hand they could not tell whether they were riding on pneuroatie or the Miro Ctiehion Thee, WINGHAM., ONT., THURSDAY, JUNE Stb, 019.

Immediately after the adjournment of the Court of Revision, the regular month- ly Meeting of the council was held, Mayor Gurney present, the only absentee being Councillor Elliott. Fire Chief Crandell asked the council fora rebate of hall rent for the Ernie Marks Concerts, which were put pn under the auspices of the firemen and were not financially successful. Moved by Comes. Fells and Currie that we rebate $15 to firemen for rent of hall. -Carried. A letter was read f om the Girls' lenitt- ing.Club asking for a rebate of S15 for hall rent for concert given bythem in aid of the G. W. V. A. On motion of Reeve Isbister and Currie the were refunded $10. The elerk read 'a letter from the C P. -R. in which they signi0ed their intention of building a new watering tank, &Aug away with the windmill and getting theii water and pumping supplied by the town. The matter wilt be attended to by the waterworks committee. Mr, Win Gannett's little dog was run over by an auto and eilled. He asked for a refund °Nog tax and was granted half a year's rebate on motion of Couns. Angus e and Willis. A letter was read from the secretary of the Associated, Municipalities of llorth .Western Ontaria asking the councfl for $10 to.assist in drefraying the expenses incurred at the recent meeting at Port Elgin, in the interests of securing hydro, The amount was granted on motion of Couns. Currie and Coun. Mitchell was the only one who expressed himself as not in favor of hydro. Coun, Willis and Mayor Gurney expressed their opinion that if Wingham goes ahead we must have hydro. Coun. Currieeand Reeve Is- bister also favored hydro. Superinten- dent Brooks said that at present the town could not get enough power as the plant was overloaded. -Ie also favored the coming of hydro. Several citizens of Patrick St, appealed to the council to have the watering tank water their street. They would be glad to have it and would pay for .the water. Several of the councillors thought the resi- dents on other streets eiere just as much entitled :to it. Court Fells stated that owing to the the number of autos going to and from the hospital that residents of Patrick St could not Open their houses Or sit on their verandahs without smothering with that. At this each councillor thought the street he lived on was the worst in town for dust.. We believe it would be the proper and better wayfor.the couneit to have all the staeets in town oiled. How much more pleasant it Would be to be able to open our indows and doors or sit out on our lawns.without dreading the knowledge that everything will be white with dust in a few seconds. Moved by Couns. Angus and Mitchell that the requests of the residents of Pat- rick Ste, re street watering be referred to the street committee to report -Carried, The finance Committee reccornmended the payments of the following accounts: George Allen, salary j.
