Now, this by-law, we understand, is designed more especially for times when the :Hain street is crowded as it was for instance on Saturday night last,and as our worthy Mayor has asked (in effect) the merchants to assist in giving it a trial, we would most respectfully sug- gest to the farmers of of this community to "Try it out" on Saturday evening next. Farmers will be very busy seeding and very few will come to town through the .week and we therefore should have a bumper crowd on Saturday, particularly in the evening from 7 to 10. The question will be asked, what is the turning by-law 3 And to be as brief as possible we may state that outside the usual "turn to the right and keep to the right" which has been Provincial Government law for years, the council has added what is known as "crosses" and "turning," Re the ''crossing and turning" part of tli" by-law a short illustration will perhaps he the easiest method of explaining. For Instance-Supposiug you lived in the north and accidently or thoughtlessly passed by our shoe store and proceeded to the "opposition shoe store" and afterwards you desire to go to Geo. Mason's "rest room' you would rt:- quire, e-quire, according to the by-law, to proceed as follows: From the opposition shoe store you would first require to cross the street, then turn north to the corner, then again cross the street -then turn south and after you got your newspaper at Mason's "rest room".you would again crossthe street --then turn north and as it might be possible that you could not get the right kind of shoes at the opposition shoe - store you would proceed to Nichols' bake shop then cross the road- then turn south, g•.t exactly the kind of shoes you wanted -then cross the Street, then turn north and finally proceed .on your way to your happy home re- joicing. We do not know what the„ farmers think of it "but it looks good to us." Anyway farmers come out Saturday and "try it out," and by the way we need a lot of cash on Saturday and we intend to give a Straight Cash Discount of 10 per Cent. off everything in the store. The reduction will ap- ply to Queen Quality Shoes for women (the best in the world) ss,nd on the Murray (the Murray and the Derby are the one and same shoe, and the only shoe that stood the test) unless you prefer to believe a ''Scrap of Paper" to the official Government inquiry book.) A clean straight 10 per cent. discount off every kind of footwear in the store on Saturday next May 1st (the first May day.) • t W. a WILLIS & CO.
