may force bakers to ask 9c loaf information came out from ottawa last week warning bak eries against increasing bread prices beyond ten cents per loaf because of the new impost on processed flour this edict will not affect the local bakery and some of the other small bakeries who deliver in this town and ai selling their pro ducts for 8c per loaf it is alto gether likely these local shops will have to step bread up a cent but at that they would be be low the ten cent top toronto bread sells for ten cents in the local stores but the best local loaf is still going at 8c we learn on monday no one would blame the man selling for 8c should he increase his price one cent to take care of the added costs im posed recently which cannot be readily met from the small margin of profit enquiry at the local bakery we learn from mr stover that no decision has been reached although he admits that the margin between pro duction costs and selling price is too dangerous at 8c icecream social the

theakston and mrs mowat had not met in sixty years until last week that mirror incident reflected no insult an editor with the best of in tentions sometimes get into trouble and thats what happen ed to us our readers will re call the report in last weeks tribune concerning an expen sive mirror falling off a load of furniture and flying into a hun dred pieces when passing through stouffvillewe suggest ed that as it was regarded by some people that to break a mirror presaged seven years of bad luck the burning of a pinch of salt would drive away the ill omen well when mr f c butler of goodwood read that item he must have vowed the seven years bad luck on the writer of the script so annoyed was he i consider your imputation a pure insult said mr butler to the tribune or words to that effect while mrs butler felt equally cut up about it so that no apology on our part would abate their wrath the butlers are leaving good wood glad to be gone from a place that held no joy for them and will locate on rr 2 wes ton we regret that in smash ing a 6000 mirror it threaten ed to smash an otherwise very good friendship we held with the butlers however with this public assurance that we meant no harm and certainly no insult the thing is sort of patched up as it were mr butler has been in rather poor health and hopes in different surroundings to re gain his old health back and we all hope this will be his lot in life two new houses near mill street two additional new homes will shortly be erected in stouffville on a site directly north of storeys drug store in fact work was

office of this paper there is a small picture of musselmans lake taken 50 years ago there wasnt a build ing to be seen on the whole shore line but a few evergreen trees dotted the barren waste land in that day was not highly held however a reporter then wrote that some day there might be cottages on the shores of this little lake and he wasnt far astray for the population today at musselmans exceeds the population of the village of stouffville during the summer season accompanying the picture mentioned here an article was printed with it which reads a few miles north from stouffville lies the lovely little sheet of water a natural spring known as musselmans lake every body picnics at the lake and yet its beauty is not appreciated as it should be where can one find a prettier spot here and there the shores are banked with evergreen then the article quotes from the pen of a visitor who wrote of this lake rising nowhere and emtpy ing nowhere this picturesque body of water has a little world of its own and tell eloquently enough of the wonderful spring which feeds it a few cottages and the odd yacht are needed to make musselmans lake the paradise it could be yes a little money is
