scotty guattax takes 222 event at harrib scotty grattan owned by a durn- in of stouffville added to bis long list of laurels tuesday capturing two firsts and a second in the 222 race at the opening days harness races at barrle exhibition have the girls got the courage in a neighboring police court the other morning there were no less than four young men hauled up for the pernicious habit of drinking in public places the magistrate said if young girls would adopt a policy of snubbing and dropping young men smelling of liquor at dances there would be fewer of these cases he added out of beer or liquor you get nothing thats of any benefit to you but you all seem to have money to booze but none to pay a tine commenting on the above the paisley advocate says of course the magistrate is cor rect if the girls and young ladies who attend dances would snub tlote smart aleck young men who come to them smelling like the slush pile of a brewery it would certainly stop a lot of this promiscuous drinking but we are afraid that the theory wouldnt work out in practice for much as we regret saying it we do not believe the average canadian young lady has either the inclina tion or the courage to snub a man who has the smell of liquor on his breath the girl is looking for a good time when she goes to a dance and she well knows that if she snubs one or two lads for their drinking proclivities the stag line will gang up on her and she would sit out the rest of the dances as a miserable wall flower destin ed to be known henceforth as a poor sport and a killjoy and again there is far too large a percentage of our young ladies who so far condone this sort of conduct on the part of their boy friends as to join with them in consuming a hottla or two of the suds at a nearby beverage room table in fact it is considered the ultra smart thing to attend dances slightly spiffed naturally the young lady who takes a drink before she goes to a dance is unlikely to do any snubb ing of anybody so that the snubb ing if it is to be done must be performed by the nonimwibing girl and much as we appreciate the fine points in the characters of our canadian womanhood we confess that we simply cannot picture even nice girls having the courage to stand up and de clare if you wish to dance with me you will have to come without the smell of liquor or cloves on your breath just so long as drinking in bev erage rooms or in the back seats of cars is considered the height of smartness so long will we have with us the type of young men and women who insist upon tanking up before a dance engagement we wont have to go out of paisley to find many of that sort and on the night of local dances bootleggers of home brew and illegal liquor dc a great business and believe it or not but the rule is that the boyj who get properly canned up are the lads who get tho most dancing partners while the young man who does not indulge are more often than not ridiculed as being afraid to take a little drink our girls hold it within theii power to stop this ginthibing by their male partners at a dance but will they take heed of the sort of grand advice as offered by the magistrate we think not the modern girl is both beautiful and resourceful and despite many opinions is no worse than her grandmother but and it pains us to say 1t she most surely lacks the courage needed to say no when a boozesmelling youth asks her to dance with him i wsbsr gw seek hit and run driver police of tho district are on the lookout for a hitandrun driver who crowded an auto off the road near sunderland

enquirys about them from the ratcliffs when they visited her on their trip west this summer threaten to raise indemnity because a certain ontario town had so many accidentts due to faulty sidewalks the insurance compan carrying their accident risk has threatened to place an almost pro hibitive rate on them aud the town fathers are worried just what would the situation be here in stouffville it the village could not obtain pro tection of this kind well we hae to think of it fortunately there have been no large claims against us and we are rated as a fairly good risk by the companies taking this form of insurance repairing sidewalks that present a danger is aside from the dollars and cents view a good thing older people go out now more at night and in the daylight too a few years ago legal actions against the village were un heard of however so many bad accidents on sidewalks in various municipalities especially by elderly women who seem to be the greatest claimants for injuries by falling on the walks and in some of which cases judgments running upwards of 3000 have been obtained in the courts that several companies have recently dropped this type of insurance while others are substantially boosting their rates in view of the risk involved the records of some towns are so bad that they can hardly get insur ance of this type at all walkerton which has been on the preferred list and has been enjoying a compara tively low rate is in eminent danger of being boosted to a higher plane for coverage in view of the claims going in from there gormley mr and mrs bill
