The whole matter concerns the price of can- ned salmon . . The clipping from Vancouver lists the best quality salmon at 42 cents, while a can of the same size and of the same quality sold for 39 cents, in Clinton at approximately the same time . * * IRONICALLY ENOUGH, THERE was another clipping stating that the "day's catch" from the Fras- er River on that day was valued at $350,000 . . . We wonder why the salmon which are caught in British Columbia and in all probability canned there, sell for three cents a tin cheaper here in Clinton, a good 2,500 miles away . . Surely the cost of transpor- tation and handling should have the opposite effect . . . AS SORT OF A LAST FLING before school starts next week, five of Clinton's young men star- ring in "The Comical Play," play- ed a one night stand in Emmer- son's Barn , They charged one cent admission, and sold Freshie at three cents a glass for refreshment . . :r * * THREE ADULTS AND 27 children paid admission, and .the five producers realized $2.07 from their show . . Bobby Emmerson, Murray McEwan, Paul Schoen- hals, Bobby Seeley and Kenneth Cummings, 'counted the proceeds with great care . . . Six times they counted , And six times they arrived at the total of $2.00. * * HOWEVER, WHEN THEY BANK- ed the money, officials there discovered the correct amount to be $2.07 . . . And the boys did rot,argue . . . This is their con- tribution to the _Clinton Lions Club campaign for Artificial Ice, which continues to report re- ceipts both large and small . . . Compared with some of the larg- er donations, this $2.07 from the producers of "The Comical Play" may seem small . . But when time, effort and ingenuity are considered, it is a commendable figure, indeed . . . Too had they coluldn't have arranged a longer booking . * * RECENTLY IN ANOTHER COL- umn of The Clinton News-Record comment was made on the lack of water in the Library Park fountain . . It failed to com- mend the Town Hall for the beautiful flower boxes which decorate the front face of that building . , And for the. flower beds at the side . . There's one flower in bloom right now, which we think ie a kind of begonia, with a huge reddish flower art it . . It seems to have a tropical look, like something that might grow hi Tampa, Eta. . . . Just beside the Police Station door is a novel kind of flower pot . It appears to be a hollowed-out green pumpkin . . And really does a good job, though we ...fear its somewhat perishable , . . 0 HYDRO STANDARDIZES 'MILLION APPLIANCES More than one million 25-cycle electrical appliances, belonging to 228,336 customers, have now been standardized for 60-cycle opera- tion in all districts, and the area of the 25=eyele system has been reduced by over one.third or 4,800 square miles, 'Ontario Hydro Com., mission Chairman Robert H, Sounder stated, THE WEATHER 1952 1551 High Low High Low Aug. 21 '77 64 10 62 22 65 49 64 53 23 67 31 66 40 24 7/ 36 71 41 25 80 51 78 44 26 83 51 77 50 27 86 50 76 59 Rein: none Rafe: none The front of J. E. Hovey's store, Bayfield, looks as if it might have been bombed! And if it had been a bomb, it coudn't have caused more consternation and shock to customers and staff than the re- sounding crash and flying glass caused by a 1951 Buick sedan which ran through the show win- dow next to the Post Office, about 2 o'clock, Saturday afternoon, The hood of the car was inside the window when it came to a stop. It pushed the framework in and bent the corner of the steel ice- cream freezer which was knocked about eighteen inches over against the meat counter with such force that it dinted the corner. One customer received a slight cut from flying glass. Five large panes of glass were broken and the Hoveys are still sweeping up splinters of it. Probably no one will ever know exactly what did happen. The car has hydromatic gear shift and the driver and owner, G. D. McLean, thought that it was in reverse. Bystanders say that the powerful car literally shot through the air, thus going over the cement plat- form which should have retarded its progress. Mrs. McLean was Shopping in the store and he de- cided to move the car. (It scrap- ed the fender of another car owned by R. Treleaven, Windsor, who is holidaying with his family in Elmer Parker's cottage.) It was a miracle that no one was seriously injured. This window attracts children, and also moth- ers frequently leave sleeping in- fants in their carriages outside it on the platform, where they can keep an eye on them while shop- ping. Two seconds before the ac- cident occurred a member of the staff had been behind the ice cream freezer. The worst of the rubble was cleaned up as quickly as possible while Mrs. Hovey and clerks went on serving customers amidst the debris.
