"Jimmy" Lawrie the GRIMSBY teamâ€" That Ontario is prosperous was easily evidenced when one i(took a look at the great mass of automobiles that were parked in the infield. There was easily $100,000 worth of machines on the grounds on Saturday and they were not all Fords either, although Henry was well up in the front rank. A carâ€"load of war trophies just as they came out of France was on exhiâ€" bition and had a big crowd of specâ€" tators around them all day long. The hotâ€"dog vendor and the pink lemonade seller did a rushing busiâ€" ness as did all the other booths on the grounds. The exhibits of ladies‘ work, fruits, vegetables, cattle, poultry and other farm products were far and away the figes,t display ever shown at a local fair. The fruit exhibit put up by the Vineland Experimental Farm was the greatest â€" display of fruits ever seen at any fair. This display was easily fifty per cent. finer than the prize winning fruit exhibit at the Toronto exhibition. Beamsville‘s 62nd fair was held on the show grounds on Friday and Saturday last and :t was without doubt the best show in the history of the fair association in every shape and form.

Proceeding overâ€" seas with the 98th early in 1916, Pte. Woolverton was not allowed to proâ€" ceed to a field of active service but was retained in different depots of the Canadian Forces, in the Old Land, until his return to Canada for deâ€"| mobilization, a few days ago. During| his service overseas, Woolverton was on varied duties in many Canadian| areas, and gained his present rank for| his splendid executive and organizing| ability in record and pay offices. Besides the above cases there were numerous garnishee summons, judgâ€" ment summons and default summons onâ€" the docket, which were tried in camera. H. â€" Hilliete vs. > Dominion Stéel Goods Company, $70.25. This action was for hauling furniture to and from express. offices andâ€" stations. Ttke defendants stated that they had no objection to paying the blil but that they wanted an itemized stateâ€" ment so that they would know what they were paying for. Plaintiff was ordered to present them with an itemized statement. SCOTT, Corp. John, a well known and highly popular resident of this Village, previous to me outbreak of war, returned to his wife and family, here, a short tize ago after a long and varied overseas service.

Two bands were on the job and kept things lively all afternoon, while the hotâ€"dog man and the soft drink spieler could be heard selling his wares in a racuous tone all over the place. . The horse classes were all well filled with excellent stamps ofquadâ€" rapeds and Mr. Davidson the Governâ€" ment judge had some difficulty in placing the awards.

These leading men and won»n, with no selfish ends to serve, and having in mind only the best interests of all the people in Ontario, are convinced that the true solution to the temperance problem is to allow the general sale of more appetizing, nonâ€"intoxicating beer and light wines, with the sale of spirituous liquors placed under proper Government regulations and restrictions.
