WROXETER MILL DESTROYED BY FIRE Sparks from, a burning rubbish pile are believed to have started the fire which deStroyed a 100- year-old vacant three-story build- ing in Wroxeter on Sunday. The roof of the building caught fire while its owner, .Gustave Brink of Wroxeter was burning rubbish near by. The brick, stone and frame structure, a former feed mill, was destroyed in about an hour. Winghain firemen pumped water from, the nearby Maitland River to fight flames which rose to 100 feet. Harriston firemen 'ere called in when sparks, carried be a strong wirid, threatened a. row of houses across the river from the fire. The roofs of the houses were hosed down. They escaped dam, age.

All citizens of Brussels (and district) are requested to their part, by notifying the police about any infractions of the law. If you see anyone driving recklessly or too fast in a resi- dential area or in the main street business section, don't just com- plain about it to your friends or the council members, but call the police .and tell them about it., They will co-operate. A very thoughtless and incon- siderate act, which is scorned by most citizens, is that. of breaking glass bottles on roads, sidewalks, and lawns. Before you throw that next bottle out of your car, please • think what you would do if you had to pick up the pieces off your lawn, or buy some new tires for your car. Be more considerate of other people! A GOOD Police Force is only as good as the CITIZENS help to make it. Don't be afraid to call them COLLECT at Mount Forest 285, or Wingham 357-3232.

He told his audience Lions are leaders of all other service clubs. It, takes hard work, and depends on each Lion to stay that Way; but size alone is not a sign of strength. It is .not. the size of the man in the, fight, but the fight in the man. that counts. Lions, he said, are an army waging a war for freedon, brothehood and justice. They should not put things to be done off until tomorrow. Their motto should be T.N.T. (today not to- morrow).
