Donald "Butch" Bagneli is shown receiving the juveile trophy from League Secretary Cecil R. Carveth. Check Postage When Sending Birth Notices This Is of particulair in- terest ta those who con- template sending out birth announcements through the mails. Postinaster Geo. Vice advises that a number of hxappy parents have been sending out written an- nouncements with only 2c. postage affixed. Unless the sentier can be located the persan receiving the notice wiIl be charged double deficiency which could be as high as 12c. il out of town. The only birth announ- cenients which wiIl go for 2c. are those ivithout any writing on them. Partly printedl and completed in handwriting or typewriting with infor- mation such as the baby's name, weight, date of birth and condition of par- ents are subiect ta letter rates as follows: 4 cents for Bowmanville, Canada. Great Britain and U.S.A. 5 cents; Europe and other cauntries 6 cent&. ¶t t WATER PROBLEMS- Efforts ta have water- works installed in Newcastle, Orono and even Brooklin are not ail sweetness and light. Appar- ently, in each of the villages concerned there is strong apposition ta the move, mostly fromn the expense angle. Ratepayers in Orono attended a meeting on Monday that became a bit rough at times, but probably didn't change any opinions. In Newcastle, a graup showed up ta voice protest at a meeting called ta inform local M.P.P. Alex Carruthers of the plan. A public meeting in Broaklin alsa found many objectors. If it is any comf art ta the pramoters, we understand that way back, Bowmanville encauntered the same objec- tions when they first tried ta bring in waterworks. and sewers. ]Progress is nat ail easy going. Always it seems ta be expensive. t t t t t SLIGHT ERROR - In the report of the bail games at Newcastle's Civic Holiday tournament we apparently made a slight error which has brought repercussians. We said the Kendal baseball club was defeated by a score of 6-3. They won. One of the players dlaims his wife who had not been at the game read the result after listening ta him tell of the wonderful victory, and iooked at hlm with a baleful, questioning scrutiny. We hasten ta correct the mistake ta get him out of the dog- house. t t t i. t LOOKS BETTER - Gord Burley on instructions from tawn council and in agreement wîth repre- sentatives of Steinberg's, carried out some lonQ overdue extensive cleaning up and levelling off of their Church and Division St. supermarket site on Monday. This has been misinterpreted in some quarters as the first move preceding con- struction of the new building, but there has been no indication that thîs is the case. t t . ALWAYS PROBLEMS - Tabacco growers wha have enough problems ta plague them at this time of year, including the threat of hail, uncertainty of markets, etc., learned of another threat this weck. The Simcoe Reformer tells of visitors from the Rhodesian Tobacco 'industry wha fear that Red China may soon enter the world market for flue-cured tobacco. They apparcntly are growing a gaod quality crop there now, comparable withi aur own and wouid have a tremendous cost advantage due ta.available cheap labor. Speaking of labor, the streets of Simcoe are filled these days with urifortunate suckers who were taken in by a Montreal slicker who claimed he could obtain tobacco jobs for them. They paid hîm for this service, but when they arrived in the Western Ontario tobacco beit, found the scheme was a pain- ful f raud. t t t t i. WARDEN'S PICNIC - Next Wednesday, August l7th, County Counciliors and their families will be taking in the annual Warden's Picnic at Little Lake, located a mile south of Highway 2, between Cofborne and Brighton. Many will recail the gloriaus days when these were held as excursions to Rochester on the boats out of Cobourg.
