Isaac Boone. of Allandale was ned $200 and costs. amounting to $209.25, in Monday's Police Court for selling intoxicating liquor, and Daniel Manville of Anien Mills was also relieved of $209.'25 for having liquor in his possession.

A charge of having liquor in his possession was also laid against Joseph Mulroy of Anten Mills, when the police found a. bottle of hard stuff resting comfortalbliy in his car. The charge was later with- drawn, as Mr. Mulroy claimed that the bottle was thrown into his auto. and there was no evidence to the contrary. A nn nr smnn and rvnszis lmnnrsed contrary. A ne of $300 and costs imposed upon Boone in 1921 for a breach ot the Inland Revenue Act has appar- ently not cured him of his desire to mingle with the costly uid."

Once associat- ed with liquor, always associated with liquor might t this case. $300 and costs would be,` we imagine, almost enough to deter any further efforts in such a precarious line of business, on which the busi- ness tax is so high.

REDUCTION IN HYDRO RATES FOR BARBIE PO/ER USERS The reduction in Hydro rates an- nounced by the Ontario Hydro- Electric Commission last Thursday will mean a reduction of asbout 8 per cent. to the users of -power. Barrie system will still pay $29.00 per H.P. for current supplied, the same as before. For domestic light- ing and commercial lighting there will be no change. For power there is a reduction in the second and third rates. The new rates are $1.00 per h.p. plus 2c; 1.4c, 0.5c. Bar- rie rates have been comparatively low and the rate for each service must be such as will cover the cost of that service. Adjustments are made from time to time so that the service will be self supporting, or a little better. To the users of power :1 v-nrlunnn AP oinrhf nnr man! \viH HLLIE UL`L!'.'l.

INTERCOLLEGIATE MEET AT MIDLAND Either Oct. 6 01' 13 ; Many Changes in Regulations 1 Governing Meet. ` S . The Intercollegiate athletic meet 1 will be held at Midland this year I on either Saturday, Oct. 6th, or Saturday, Oct. 13th. The meet, which is open to Orillia, Lindsa_\`. Midland and Barrie Collegiates, has been held every year since 1920. when M. D. Tudhope ot` Orillia pre- sented the Tudhope cup for annual competition among these four schools. In 1920 at the first meet in Orillia, Lindsay carried off rst honors. The following year Barrie l.-1'ou_:;ht the cup from Lindszu` to spend the year in the local Col-. tegiate, and then, loath to see it de- part, kept it for another year by winning the meet in Barrie last fall. Last year's meet was marred by 21 heavy rain, which nally necessitated ` the calling off of the meet after half t.he events had been run off. .- x___i- `~r\r\` `nun; l.llC \.v\LA|.7 uuu -1...... ..... ..

For the past three years each school had entered three competitor. in each event. Each event, for instance the 100 yard dash, was then run in three heats, pne runner from each school being entered in each heat. \Vhen this was done a school could choose the three best runners and enter them- This year the rules have been` changed.

This` change of ruling will no doubt make quite a\dit'ference and 111115` factor greatly in the winning of the cup. Whereas, before it one school had two or three crack men, that school stood by far the best chance of winning the silverware. Now 21 ,school with good junior and good lintermediate men might win while not having the best school athletes. But there is another phase that more than makes up for this side 0.` the question. The entering oi` juniors. who must be under 110 pounds, creates more interest in athletics and gives everyone a chance to com- pete. It does not mean now that the competition is confined to u, selecttexv, but gives all an equal; chance under the graded system. ,1 Ullallbc lluucl uu. _.,....u\\.
