Depression in the market for metal

Closing down o n Saturday n 1 g h t of
the Great Western Foundry Company,
Manager John Cunningham states that
he is unable to say when activities may
be resumed, and lie intimated that t!e
company might be permanently out of
business, About 100 men are out of
employment as a result of the sbut-down.
According to Mr. Cunningham, the
foundry, company was loaded up with
high-priced raw material and with a big
stock of their finished product of stoves
and ranges and other articles. Raw
materials have come down in price and to
marhet their stocks at prevailing prices
would mean too heavy a loss for the
company to sustain. The manager also
stated that wages had been a factor in the
accumulation of events which forced the
shut -down of the firm. He believed that
if Wages Could be adjusted and materials
purchased at figures which would permit
of carrying on, plans might soon be made
for resumption of work, but was not
sanguine about obtaining these necessary
adjustments.
Other industrial plants in the town are
carrying on, though some have staffs con'
siderably reduced� -London Free Press.

Where Shall We Tack Notices?
Another oll landmark was taken down
bythe hydro men on Tuesday viz. the
post at the corner of W. J. Boyce's,hard-
ware store. This post has held the fun-
.ral notices, the church announcements,
the auction sale bills, and the dance
notices for years. It was an information
bureau and many have read from it in-
teresting news. We believe that TAE
ADVANCE owned at least a couple of
boxes of the tacks, wbich the man claim -
!d weighed several pounds.
kuto Accident
A motor party of young peop�.e met
with what might have proved a very
;erious accident, when. as they were re-
turning from a dance at Eden Grove at a
late hour on Thursday night. their car
turned turtle just as it was going around
a dangerous curve on the road about half
a mile north of Cargill. The occupants
were thrown out, but fortunately were
thrown clear of the car as it upset. A
Southampton young lady and a Cargill
young lady received a badshaking up.
Clare Donnelly, the driver, was also
thrown out, as was his seatmate, another
young man, but they were none the worse
for their experience. Tne car, owned by
Senator 1. J. Donnelly of Pinkerton, and
driven by his son. Clare, was but slightly
damaged.
