McNab, and Seaforth's ability to capitalize on op- portunities. Saturday night they start- ed right in where they left off in Sea - forth, with nobody sparing the body at . all.

Midway through the third period Stock scor- ed Mitchell's sixth goal on a pass from Smith. Once more Seaforth came right back, O'Shea scoring on a pass from Ellwood. - Weber and O'Shea started punching one another, then most of the players on both teams ended up in a shoving bee. When Referee McQuade got them sorted out, he gave O'Shea and Weber majors. While playing five a side, "Farmer" McFadden broke away to score his fifth goal unassisted. Peelings were still running high; Wal- ther and Ellwood started to exchange punches, so McQuade marched them off with majors.

(Continued on Page 5) LEGION NOTES News of Seaforth Branch 156 of the Canadian Legion eee oose Usborne R:.eve As Warden of Huron County WARDEN Hugh Berry, Reeve of Usborne Township, who on Tuesday was elected Warden et Huron County. By tradition, the appointment this year went to a Conservative. • Appointment of Alex Alex- ander, Grey Twp., as Hur- on Assessor, is Confirmed By Council. USBORNE COUNCIL APPOINTS OFFICIALS Accepts Resignation of W. J. Routly As Assessor. The 1948 municipal council of the Township of Usborne held their ins augural meeting. Reeve Hugh Berry and Councillors Oscar Tuckey, Wel- lington Brock, Jas. Simpson and Verne Pincombe took the oath of office be- fore the clerk, after which the 1948 council was formally co'hstituted and convened with Reevg Berry presiding. Minutes of the final municipal coun- cil meeting for 1947, held Dec. 16, were confirmed as prinr}ted as were the minutes of nominatioS2 ayld record set,,eslentiou,,. on,.::motiow ti nncilloss:.

Routly as asses- sor. Mr. Routly stated that his duties as road superintendent left him no time in which tib' carry on the duties of assessor. He felt that since a new system of assessing was to be adopt- ed under a county assessor, it would be a good time for a new man to start. Members of the council ex- pressed the feeling that the township had been well served by Mr. Routly in the past and regretted that he felt that be could no longer act in that capacity. The appointment of town- ship assessor was laid over to a later meeting and till such time as further information could be secured by the Reeve county officials regarding the new system of property assessment. On motion of Councillors Brock and Tuckey. the following salaries and rates of pay for township officials• and employees were adopted: Reeve $125, councillors $100, Clerk $720 ($60 per month), Treasurer $250, relief officer $1 per month per family and mileage, tax collector $100, caretaker $25, road superintendent, 70c per hour, grader and plow operator 70c per hour, oth- er employees 50c per hour, mileage allowance,' 10c per mile. Fixing of hourly wage rate to operators of the crawler tractor was laid over to the next meeting. Councillor Wellington Brock was appointed to represent the township on the Sauble River Conservation Authority on motion of Councillors Pincombe and Simpson. The second Monday in each month was fixed as being the regular council meeting day for 1948. Council authorized the Clerk to purchase all necessary supplies for the proper carrying on, of the town- ship business during the year 1948, including 10 subscriptions to the Mun- icipal World for township officials. Election expenses were authorized by resolution of council for payment as follows: Polling places $5 each, depu- ty returning officers $4 each, and poli clerks $3 each. In view of the fact that many municipalities have now adopted the plan of holding nomina- tion and election meetings earlier, and that weather and'road Conditions are often mot favorable for these meet- ings atthe end of the y"eat; council resolved to set ahead the ,date of nomination and election in 1948, date to he 'fixed later.

It was also decided to adopt a county equalization assess- ment system in orderthat the assess- ment might be completed by 1950. With Reeve George Ginn in the chair, considerable discussion follow- ed the reading of the report. Reeve J. McNab thought the sys- tem would cost a lot of money, Reeve 13. W. Tuckey argued that different municipalities in the county have changed drastically and something should be done regarding equaliza- tion. High school areas had created the necessity for new schools, and it was imperative that a new assessment should be got under .way. Clerk N. W. Miller pointed out that an assessment is due under the sta- tutes and there are only two ways'of instituting :it -by the appointment of an assessor•or by the appointment of a five -man committee. "Goderich has its own special meth- od of assessing industries. We have to see they are not taxed out of ex- istence," Reeve Huckins asserted. Reeve Ferrish explained that Han- over is highly industrialized and there' were only three appeals against its assessment, which would indicate sat- isfaction, he claimed. On motion of Reeves M. Johnson, of Wingham, and J. E. Huckins, of Goderich, the report wds;, adopted. George Pollock, Morris Twp., ap- peared before council to •=bject to a clause in the tree-cuttar.e bylaw that prohibits• the cutting of trees in a 50 - foot belt along the road. He wished to cut some of the timber on a stretch of his property. This was the first complaint voiced against the bylaw, it was claimed. The prime purpose of the bylaw is conservation, and pro- tection of the highways "for the good of the country." Estimates submitted by County Treasurer A. H. Erskine showed an estimated :epo_itdtgre .- o€.;-_$208:859;. estimated revenue, $212,532; estimat- ed surplus, $3,682. This would mean an estimated rate of six mills, made up as follows: General account, 3.5 mills; county highways, 2.6; plus the cost of secondary schools to those townships not included in high school areas. The `State for urban centres would be six mills. At the opening session of Council on Tuesday afternoon, Reeve Hugh Berry, for four years Reeve of Us- borne, was elected Warden. He was chosen by a caucus of the •Conserva- tive members. Correspondence read to the council Tuesday afternoon by Clerk N. W. Miller included a•resolution from Lan- ark County seeking action to remedy the shortage of feeds and the adverse price structure. A. resolution from the County of Elgin favors the nationaliz- ation of sweepstakes to relieve the high cost of hospitalization. A com- munication was also read from the Christian Social Council opposing the Elgin resolution. Huron County Temperance Federa- tion strongly urged that the council make representation to the govern- ment to add the following amendments to the Criminal Code, pointing out that the county, which is under the C.T.A., has been deprived under re- cent legislation of these provisions under the L.C.A.: "To make it an of- fence to consume liquor in any place other than a residence; that•no per- son shall sell' or supply liquor to be sold or supplied to a person under or apparently under the influence of liq- or; that no person shall knowingly sell or supply intoxicating liquor to a person under .21 -'years." -' • Boys Win, Girls Lose in H.S.

LOW PRICES' THE Huron Expositor Phone 4i Seaforth eieeSS Benson W. Tuckey, Exeter businessman, who at an enthusiastic convention of Liberals of the riding of Huron, was nominated as candidate to contest the forthcoming by-election, ie shown being congratulated by Hon. Farquhar Oliver (left), Provincial 'Liberal Leader. In the centre is Albert Kalbfleisch, Zurich, President of the riding association, and the other nominee. Liberals Choose Ben Tuckey ToContest Huron By Election Enthusiastic C o n v e n tion Hears Hon. Farquhar Ol- iver in Fighting Speech. Predicting a protest vote which would spell defeat for the Tories, 'Hon. Farquhar Oliver, Ontario Liberal Leader, told an enthusiastic conven- tion of Huron. Liberals that packed the Town Hall at Hensall on Friday, despite snow -filled roads, that the blame for the present Hydro shortage rests squarely on the shoulders of the Drew Government. The convention chose Benson W. Tuckey, 43 -year-old Exeter business- man, as its candidate at the by-elec- -tion February 16. Mr: Tuckey -won- the -nomination its a close vote over Albert Kalbfleisch, Zurich businessman, and president of the Huron Liberal Association. When the latter moved that Mr. Tuckey's selection> -be made unanimous he. was given a resounding round of applause by the delegates which packed Hen- sall Town Hall. In promising pensions for the crip- pled and disabled of the Province, if a Liberal Government is returned at the next Ontario election, Mr. Oliver said they were the only group which today is not receiving some aid from the Government. He said they were in a class who, through no fault of their own, were unable to earn a livelihood. It was time they got some aid and h promised that a Liberal Government would 'bass the necessary legislation aiding the crippled and disabled. The Ontario leader also advoQ_cated old age pensions be given at 65'"with- out the means test and claimed On, tarso, with its great wealth, was ac- tually contributing less today as its share of the $30 monthly than when the pension was $28. Mr. Oliver claim- ed further that not more than half the old age pensioners were getting $30 a month. (Pensions are paid at the age of 70). The Liberal leader again put the blame for the present hydro power shortage on the Drew Government. He charged the Progressive Conserv- ative Association did nothing for three years after they got in office to ob- tain more power, though warned in 1942 by Mr. Houck, vice-chairman of the Ontario Hydro Electric Power Commission that a shortage was in- evitable unless more power was ob- tained. "I Intend to be in this riding until the middle of February enumerating the political sins of the Drew Gov- ernment," declared Mr, Oliver. "You can't do that in a short time." (The election is one month away, Monday, Feb. 16). As the audience laughed Mr. Oliver said that he meant his remarks to be serious. "This by-election is the first test of public opinion the Drew regime has faced since it won in 1915," continued Mr. Oliver, "and if I am reading the signs right there will be a protest vote recorded in this riding which will spell defeat for the Tories." Mr. Oliver said the Premier called the vote as early as he could under the law, following the death of Dr. Hobbs Taylor, Progressive-Coeserva- tive memrber of the Legislature. "He couldn't have pulled it any sooner," continued Mr. Oliver, "It is plain that Mr. Drew was seeking to discourage the Liberals.of the riding by calling a snap 'election at a time when road conditions would be at their= -'worst and winter had its icy grip upon the countryside. "But he didn't expect that this rid- ing would be humming with activity on the part of the Liberals. That you are not discouraged has been a great source of satisfaction to me." Mr. Oliver contended the Drew ad- minisiration hadn't done a single thing for the farmers of Ontario. Not a single bit of legislation had been ppassedwhich might have eased the burden en the farmer, he claimed. In contrast, . the former Liberal regime had git'e'n cheese, hog and sugar beet bonuses to the fermers.
