He stated that Weston had never had to restrict the use of water in the town in its history, as far as he knew. * With four wells now in operaâ€" tion, it is not expected that the town will have a water shortage this year, Mr. Peirson said.

"This will apply particularly to those streets which the children use when going to or from schools." For the present time, the proâ€" gram will entail the elimination of parking on Cross Street on the East side from Coulter to Church, on the south side of Church St. from Rosemount Ave. to Elm St., (signs have already been erected from Main Street to Rosemount Ave.), and on King St. from Roseâ€" mount Ave. to Pine St. on the north side. At the same time, the flow of heavy traffic is to be eliminated on the residential streets which have been used by many trucks as short cuts through the town. "In order to eliminate the moveâ€" ment of heavy trucks on side streets,"" Chief Robertson said, "heavy traffic will be prohibited on all streets with the exception of Lawrence Avenue, Main Street, Jane Street, and Denison Road East, except for the purpose of making deliveries. In the case of deliveries, vehicles will be required to be routed by the closest street on which heavy traffic is perâ€" mitted." _ Heavy traffic is defined as a vehicle over three tons in weight, including the load, it wus.explained In addition to these plans of acâ€" tion, the department has about twenty signs to be erected at or near schools to warn drivers to take extra precautions because of children in the neighbourhood. walking the dog, which he has owned since it was three months old, on a leash riéar his Glenholme Ave. home. The dog sighted anâ€" other, also on a leash, and in the ensuing affray, which Matthews tried to break up, Colonel Lee turned on Matthews, attacking him. Now behind barbed wire, the dog is still in an angry condition, pound attendants said today. Mrs. Matthews said the Chow Chow was the pet of the couple since it was a puppy. "This has never happened before, and it is hard to understand why Colonel Lee would get so angry," she caid. Matthews â€" suffered â€" superficial cuts to his stomach, torn flesh of both arms and an especially deep cut to his right wrist, hospital attendants said. For the grownâ€"ups, a white eleâ€" phant table will make it possible to find some small antique, or the little gift needed for a coming birthday. Mrs. C. Jackson and Mrs. G. K.
