ABOUT TAIL LIGHTS It is an acknowledged fact that driving a car in winter is much more dangerous than at other periods of the year. Every effort should be made by the motorist, drivers of other ve­ hicles and pedestrians, to avoid acci­ dents. While motoring one night last week we noticed a number of sleighs along the highway that did not carry tail lights. To be on the highway after dark without this protection is very foolish as it is very difficult to see a sleigh in bad light and especially so if snow is falling. In two instances we were very close to the other vehicles before they were seen. In both cases there might eas­ ily have been an accident. If such had been the case the results might have proven to be serious, all because of a piece of carelessness. Help keep our roads safe for travel. Make sure you have lights properly displayed when driving at night. * * MR. CROSS IS WRONG How Hon, Eric Cross gets the idea that, the people of Ontario are in fav­ our of the government idea to have no elections after those of 1940 for the period of the war is more than we can comprehend. , In every case that has come to our attention the people have expressed the desire to vote^when they wish on municipal affairs, In Morris by a large majority those at the nomination meeting expressed the desire to have things left as they are. The, feeling of the meeting was that it was not necessary for the gov­ ernment to interfere with municipal elections in any way as thg citizens of the’municipalities are capable of making such decisions for themselves. As we have stated before, most of the smaller places do not go to the people every year if they are given good municipal government, but they appear, so far as we can gather, to want thats right to make a change when thejr feel it is time, be it one year or a much longer 'term. Finds Stick of Dynamite Chopping a 14-inch block of stove wood in the backyard of his home at Owen Sound, Charles W, McMillan found a six-inch stick of dynamite carefully surrounded by paper and black powder, in an inch hole drilled in one end of the block, The open end was stopped by a wooden plug thus concealing the -explosive, A Worthwhile Practice— It is always interesting and pleas­ ing to see a farm marked at the gate­ way with the name of the owner, or the name of the farm—all the better if both are proclaimed, It shows that the owner is not ashamed either of his name or of his farm. There are several farms in the district that car­ ry this distinctive marking. It would be nice if there were more.—Milver­ ton Sun. / UhtiKitiiiitiiHHiiiiitfitiiiiniiiiiiMiiiuiiiHUiiiiuiiinHif NEWS of the DISTRICT Brant Man Fined Alfred Haase, of Brant Township, paid costs of,$6.50 and was given two years’ suspended sentence and bound over to keep the peace for a year, fol-’ lowing a plea of guilty at Walkerton to a charge of ^assaulting H.

Re­ cently we have received some requests or orders not to print certain news. In the main these communications have been such that very little excep­ tion could be taken to them. In other cases, however, they verged on the ridiculous. At that we believe it is much better to ere on the strict side than to be too lenient. It will be an easy matter for the censors to loosen up in their rulings as they gain experience, but it would be much more difficult to strengthen regulations after .carrying on with a certain set of rules for some time. After all, the first duty of 'the cen­ sors is to keep news from the enemy that would be detrimental to our forc­ es or otherwise useful to our oppon­ ents. If the censors do this success­ fully they will have done a good job and we are sure they will be very rear sonable as they gather greater exper­ ience. Shooting Dogs Latest Pastime" There is a moron at large in town, armed with what is apparently a .22 rifle. ■ His pastime diiring the past two or three weeks seems to be taking pot shots at dogs. The day after Christ­ mas' a dog belonging to Herb Cross was shot in the leg and rather badly injured, and on Saturday night J. B. Duffield’s dog was hit. Chief Scott is investigating the incident, and while he has not sufficient evidence at the moment to warrant him laying an information, he is fairly sure of his ground.—Durham Chronicle. z •v ’’ ■- ■ *........ , To Present Plays for Red Cross A newly organized dramatic society should prove to be of great interest to Clinton and surrounding territory.

The rOad’ at that point passes through a deep gul­ ly, with a high narrow fill, which makes it rather dangerous. The new bridge will likely permit of wider and safer approaches.—Mildmay Gazette, Guh Exploded Unexpectedly A Carrick private, on holiday leave from the Listowel barracks, created quite a sensation in P. D. Liesemet’s hardware store on Saturday after­ noon. While demonstrating the work­ ing of a shotgun, lie inserted a shell in the magazine. The shell appeared to stick, and while the soldier was attempting to remove it, the gun dis­ charged. The shot penetrated the store ceiling, and punctured, a can of paint, but very fortunately no further damage resulted.—Mildmay Gazette.
