Monday night Fred Boyce and Ken Ohard each scored two goals and Dan Mc- Tavish counted one. Geo. Boyd play- ed this game and was outlucked three times when he hit the goal posts, once drawing Re.burn out of the Shel- burne nets and then he missed. At times he made the Shelbume players look slow with his plays. If Re had been playing all season he would have made a big difference on the offensive play of Fleteherton, but he is not in condition yet. Flesherton has lost the five games they havt played. A nuimiber of the players range in age from 14 to 16 and up, and most of the others have not had a great deal of experience in faster hockey as played in this league, but they will come. Flesherton plays in Markdale this Friday night with Markdale, and the boys are out to avenge the defeat handed to them Friday night. This is Flesherton's home game. Be on hand to cheer the boys along. DO "HIGHGATERS" EVER SMILE Life in the Village of Highgate must have been rather strenuous these pa^t few years. Froim now on, however, things are going to be dif- ferent. Village authorities have am- ended a 1)y-law to the effect that no person shall take part in or encour- age the holding of charivaries, falst alarms, ring bells, blow horns, or make or cause any unusual noitees that will disturb the peace and quiet of the coniniunuity or annoy the in- habitants. The village council has also taken note of juke boxe.'; and legislated against them. They must not be played after. M p.m. and not at all On Sundays., Fines for offenlses run up to S50 and costs. Do any of the citizens of Highgate smile at all?â€" London, Ont. Echo. War changes civilians into soldiers but peace never really changes them back again. â€" the "anriy" mind lingers on. Isolation â€" something which, if you insist too much upon, you are dragjged into a free-for-all in which nobody gets any sort of isolation- Recent fleet and wind tlormt In Niagara and Western Ontario areas, brought down whole sections of both sleel- tower and wooden-pole Hydro lines.

THRUST DOES NOT PAY ii«^ THE HYDrt<::i^El|1fTJ?|iC, POWER COMMISSI QWrnltto (The Printed Word) The opinion expressed by Mr. C. Gordon Drodie that thrift is rapidly disappearing a^ a human motivating force because of the current lack of prufiit incentive, will find many people in agreement- One of them, a slide- rule virtuoso, produced the following figure.* to substantiate Mr. Brodies cuntiiition. In the twenties, the man who ac- cumulatiMl $-Jl),()l)() could bo sure of an annual of return of $1,200 on his money.- It is true that baby bonuses had not yet been invented, that price fontrols and subsidies were undream- ed of, and that the ordinary man had to provide for his own old age. But it is also true that relatively loiw taxes and a cuiirent investment yield of six per cent made the idea oif thrift attractive. It is different in 1»46. The man who wantb an. investment income of 11.200 now requires |48,000 to do the job. This amount must be accumul- ated at ruinously low interest rates under a heavy burden of taxation. Today's money rate is from two and a half to three per cent, a long way from the comfortable six per cent of the twenties, and today's tax- es maike the actual yield even lower. Suikpobe, for exaim(ple, that a thrifty citizen earns $4,000 and- is fortunate enough to possess investments re- turning t^ree per cent After in- come taxes, the actual yield on thebe investment will be only 2*: 16 per cent. If his income is flO.OOO, his actual investment yield will be only 1.86 per cent, and should he aspire to an in- come of |;20,0(H). his iiivi'stnuMit yield will drop to 1 35 per ct-nt after taxes. These figures speak for tht>ms»dves. tinder the present system of taxation thi-ift does not pay and the personal initiative that brought pvosjxsrity to '^♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ ♦ ♦♦ ♦ ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ * *I H »»*>» » • â-  < « < > ii You Can Depend on the il F.
