Marking of gasoline for special uses under the jurisdiction of the Oil Controller for Canada having been discontinued, the tax exemption purchase permit system is thereby ended. 3 Farmers, fishermen, guides and tourist outfitters will be entitled to claim refund of the Provincial Gasoline Tax where applicable. Claims, accompanied by receipted invoices, must be submitted to the Gasoline Tax Branch, Department of Highways, Parliament Buildings, Toronto within six months from date of of invoices. 4. A simplified method of assuring prompt payment of refunds, eliminating affidavits for each claim, has been worked out. As there is no rationing of gasoline in Canada, marked gasoline, under the jurisdiction of the Oil Controller for Canada, has been eliminated, thereby ending the tax exemption purchase , permit system. To meet the desire of everyone to be relieved of wartime restrictions, the Provincial Government has developed a new system as free from controls and difficulties as possible. A simplified refund form has been prepared which eliminates the necessity of an affidavit being taken for each refund claim. This, form may be obtained on appliCation to the Gasoline Tax Branch, Department of Highways, Toronto, Ontario. • The ending of marked gasoline sale removes difficulties made necessary by this wartime control. • Complaint'S were made that marked gasoline was detrimental to the equipment - in which it was being used. • Records and reports necessary under the marked gasoline system will no longer be required. • Extra storage facilities will be unnecessary for the separate storage of graded and marked gasoline with consequent saving to the consumer.

DISTRICT BUTCHERS - OPPOSED TO STRIKE Huron Perth Retail Butchers Elect Alf Lockridge On Executive At a general meeting of the Huron and Perth Retail. Butchers', Associa- tion, Wednesday night in Seaforth, the members were opposed to striking as a protest against rationing. Great dis- satisfaction was expressed however, against rationing, and the use of tok- ens especially, but most members felt that until, a better system could be of- fered, the use of tokens must be con- tinued. Fear was expressed by the butchers of a greater loss in their meat business than was quoted by the government. It was felt that farmers•producing the meat are not securing sufficient rations to feed themselves and will return to their own system of meat rationing. An election of officers was called for but all felt that the same officers should hold their positions, especially in the present crisis. They are: presi- dent, W. D. Whyte, 'St. Marys; vice- president, W. L. Whyte, Seaforth; secretary, Gordon Ubelacker, Strat- ford; treasurer, R. Rohfritsch, Strat- ford; executive, D. O'Brien, Goderich, B. F.. Christie, Seaforth; R. B. Moody, Listowel; A. V. Tiernan,. Dashwood; 5. C. Baeker, Brussels; A. Lockridge, Wingham. The chairman led a discussion on objections to rationing, and stressed that all the organizations so opposed must have unity in ideas and efforts, A London letter, urging that all such organizations in Western, Ontario meet in London at an early date was dealt with. It was moved that the president and secretary of the local body attend such a meeting. W. L. Whyte, Sea- forth, was nominated to accompany them.

From mem-, berg of the W. A a letter is sent each week as well as other kindnesses which help brighten the days for one who suffers from paralysis. A friend front Brockville came to visit the soldier when he had received the first letter. Written by the President of the W. This young lady look the letter and, read it at her home Institute Branch,, they too became interested and the re* snit was raised enough money to pin, chase a wheel chair, which has brought much comfort and happiness, There are 1200 soldiers in Christie St. 'Many will' be patients for years.
