Explonotory comment is sometimes pmovided to place the situa- tion in eontext. May 1909 Scarlet fever has broken out in about haif a dozen Milton house- bolds. Fortunately it is of a mild type and no serious cases have been reported, but tisai of the famil>' of Wesley Cardinal of Commercial Street, la a sad one. On Monday Mrs. Cardinal suffering [rom peritanitis, was carried on a sîrcîcher ta tise C.PR. station ta be taken ta a Guelph isospital, while ber îwo children were down with searlet lever, with nu one ta nurse îisem excepi tiseir [suber. Editorial: On Monda>' evening ai a meeting uf tise town counciL,' a pro- posai to pump waîer frum thse creek, biter it and turu it into the reservuir was appraved. Nuthing final was dune but there is reason ta [car tisai the sebeme may bc carried oui. Lt is said tu ise cbeap and not likel>' ta give tise members ai tise cauncil mucb trouble in the way of making arrangements or supervising work, bath apparently sirong points in its favour in the eycs af the present îown administration. Lowville: Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Readhead entertained a [ew of their friends on Wednesday Croquet was played on the lawn in the afiernoon, and an excellent tes was served ai 6:30, after wisicb the evening ws spent in games and music. This was the most enjoyabie event of tbe sea- son. S. Syer, of the Canadian Carpet Co., came to town lasi week from Toronto in bis fine automobile. He got over tise country roads ail right, but came ta grief when he struck tbe isole on Mil St. mentioned in the Champion two weeks ago. The isole had been fllLed up so that light con- veyances psssed over iî nicely, but tlsere was soft mud beLow and wben the beavy machine struck it sank and milton ~ capsules stuck fast until hauled out by a team of horses. Mr. Syer motored to town again lasi Tuesday. The drill at the prospective welI of the Halton Oil & Gas Co. has reached a depth of 1,350 feet and the indications for a flow of oil are so good that casing is being put in at an expense of about $500 and drilling wilI be continued down to, the gran- ite unless a flow is struck before reaching it. Lieut. C.R . Willmott has been successful in enlisuing a good num- ber of recruits for the Milton troop of the Mississauga Horse. The saddles and other equipment are stored tem- porarily ai the armoury of G. Co. 2Oîh Lomne Rifles, Martin Street, but it is expected that the Militia Department wiIl provide an armoury for the troop. Lieut. Willmott says Milton is likely ta be made head- quarters for the Halton squadron and a troop to be enlisted at Georgetown. june 1909 The Milton troop of the Mississauga Horse has been recruited to uts full strength, 18 men, and its officers could easily have got more who offered themselves, after the limit bad been reached. The men are ail of extra good physique and the majority are farmers' sons who wilI ride their own horses. The troop wiLl be a credit to Milton and the sur- rounding ares. PL. Robertson, manager of the screw factor', bas invested ini an automobile, which came ta town on Monday' Mr. Robertson took his firai trip yesterday, Milton to Guelph and thence to Hamilton.
