Both Crazy.
Judge: But what evl;ieuce have
you that these men are insane?"
Officer: 'Well, your honor, the Scotch
mall was standing on the curb throw-
ing handfuls of money into the street

Moving.
On Wednesday of this week Wrn

city.
Lissome Lizzy.
Some of the boys got out the
"Lissome Lizzy" and took Mr. Elea'
Welsh and bride for a rid on Wednes-
day night The bride and ;groom en-
joyed the fun. The groom took an-
other automobile ride on Saturday
with some Brusselntes-but that will
be another story.
Great Truck Work.
Many citiecns have been wonder-
ing why all the big trucks were pass-
ing through the town at excessive
speed last week. The highway gang
that has just finished the road from
Dublin to Seaforth, has been wav-
ing bag and baggage up to Cliffordwhere they are to work on a piece
of road to Mildmay.
Your Visitors.
We try to get the names of all the
visitors in town, but if we miss any
of you need not feel slighted, for we
frequently incite you to send in the
names of your visitors, and possibly
it just slipped your mind. Just phon
in or write it on a :lip of nano)! and
hand it in, Any news is always wel-
come.
Obey The Signs.
Highway traffic officers in this dis-
trict have recently received further
orders from the department of public
highways to the effect that motorists
must be made to obey the 'Stop' signs
en all country roads leading onto
the provincial highways. In the pest
it is claimed these have' been con-
, pletely ignored.
Can Be Complimented.
Brussels motorists may well feel
highly complimented. The advertise
nlents from the Department of High-
' ways for careless motorists, etc. have
r apparently not been considered nec-
essary to insert in The Post although
neighboring papers have had to have
then, inserted. It is indeed a rare
- compliment from the Department to
Brusselites who drive motor cars.
More Canadian Historical Stamps.
Three further denominations of
Canadian historical postage stamps
have been issued. On the new five -
cent stamp appears rhe head of
D'Arcy McGee. It is colored purple.

green, bears the heads of Sir John
Macdonald and Sir Wilfred Laurier.

Previous to the departure of Mrs.

farewell. The following address was
read ,by Miss Mary Lamont and Mrs.
Harris on behalf of the neighbors
presented Mr. and Mrs. Clouse with
a beautiful wicker chair:
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Clouse:
We, a number of your friends and
neighbors of Queen street and vicin-
ity have assembled here this even-
ing to spend a social hour with you
on- the eve of your departure from
our midst. Daring your residence
here, you were always willing to
help along anything that wns of in -
interest and benefit to the commun-
ity. You have proved wed '
p our el
s ve
1 s ex-
cellent neighbors as well as first-class
citizens. We regret that circum-
stances should require you to change
your place of residence, but we sin-
cerely hope the change will react to
Your material benefit. While we
know that you will make mane new
friends, we hope that the Brussels
ones may always retain a place in
your regard. As a slight token of
our esteem and regard we would ask
you to accept this reeking chair and
we hope that when it helps you to -
enjoy
some leisure moments that
your thoughts may return to your
many Mende in this wnununity,
Signed on behalf of the friends and
neighbors -Mary Lamont, Isabel
McDonald, Elizabeth D. Harris, :
