sidering a new rate for domestic water users and the matter came up for discussion at the last meet ing of the neighboring council it is an interesting fact that stouff ville and markham villages have the lowest water rates in the county of york and since mark ham village has an annual expense for pumping it is only natural the rates should be higher than in stouffville where a gravity water system is operating it is the opinion of this newspaper that both villages are not getting too big a return from their water system which as a private invest ment would be worth 100000 in either village dr

knew how to be decent frantic efforts to oust a visitor from her home on monday were of little avail when appeals were made to big strong men to come along and lend a hand until two youths of the town lome schell and cliff harper from schells butcher shop volunteered their services much to the relief of mrs jack epworth corner albert street and rupert avenue mrs epworth early in the day explain ed the predicament she was in mr epworth was in toronto a little black and white striped animal was sleeping peacefully down in the cellar just behind the steps she feared he might go berserk at any moment and she visioned having to move back to their sum mer cottage at island lake for a time added to this trouble was the fact that the main hydro fuse had blown and the house was without hydro and any means of cooking a meal the fuse box hung on the tslill just above the little black and white visitor of all times to blow a fuse moaned mrs epworth all morning this situation prevail ed and a plank leading to an open window didnt induce the skunk to run out however before the day was over the two lads from the butcher shop appeared with a small box walked down the cellar steps as the skunk scampered in behind some boxes setting the box in a convenient place they urged the skunk to move along and he did this willingly and without resentment once in the box the lid was closed and the visitor moved outside and sent to the happy hunting ground with a gun shot mrs epworth declares the little visitor was the most decent skunk she ever heard of it got into the cellar when a screen was left off after the coal man had been around the whole affair despoils the notion that skunks are all for distributing their wares for no good reason at all that this one was capable of doing so was evident only when it was shot and of course it was duly excused and had been taken to a safe place in anticipation of just what happened see f e rae tailor stouffville about that new fall worster suit
