phone stouffville 1s40l two houses under construction excavation commenced last week for the new residence to be built this summer by mr milt storey druggist on the site of the old brick barn that stood on his fathers property on main street west most of the mater ial has been bought in advance so that present day shortage will not be a problem ground was staked this week for still another fine residence to be erected by mr wesley schell pro prietor of the planing mill who has held a lot at the corner of main and victoria streets for this purpose for some years the new house will be 26x36 brick clad with sun room and garage combination under one roof it will face on victoria street the present attractive residence owned and occupied by the schell family is too small for their requirements hence they will move to their new and increased accommodation when the work is completed trout fishing friday the trout fishing season opens on friday of this week may 1st and local nimrods are preparing to spend tile day along their favorite streams in quest of the speckled beauties we noted rev herbert lee carry ing a number of letters into the post office monday morning and found that two of them were going to his twin grandsons masters eric and phillip conveying grandfathers good wishes on their fifth birthday quaijtx service there is not enough of the old flag left over tho top the school building to make a pocket handkerchief but a new one is on order and will arrive in due course these flags soon wear out when they are left constantly to the breeze a lady of the town called at the tribune monday morning to register a timely protest against the unwarr anted throwing of candy wrappings around the street and on lawns for other people to pick up it is some thing we have often thought about here we are calling for the last scrap of paper to be saved yet youngsters and grownups alike throw wrappings from candy all over the streets leaving the place in a m63t untidy manner just what is to be done with these wiappers when the candy is eaten we are not sure but the paper could at least be screwed into a ball before discarding it has been suggested that boxes be placed at corners as receptacles for old papers and a few might be tried out to see how they would be made use of if there ts a serious shortage of paper one wonders why the chocolate bar manufacturers are allowed to contin ue putting on great elaborate wrap pings of course the wrapper has an appeal and adds to the sanitary man ner of handling the candy but this should not weigh in times like this the soldier has to go without clean ing teeth for days in an emergency and we too can do without appealing candy covers of every kind gnr harold badgero who has been in camp hill

otherwise little damage was caused constable al greenwood investigat ed v common community experiences so far as stouffville is concerned treasurer george storey has man aged with merely issuing threats to delinquent water users to the vffect that if they did not pay up then he would have the water shut off from their premises in almost all cases the threat was sufficient to induce the shortsighted people to see the light and pay before the thirstquencher was denied them apparently the town of walker- ton does not always get their water rates collected without similar or more drastic steps being resorted to and here you may read what the walkerton herald says about the town cop starting on his rounds for delinquent users police- chief jack ferguson started on his rounds

present premises mr ell ramer carpenter under lease to the bank who later boughtcthe place and en larged the building not for 15 years has mrs mckinnon taken a week off so that her services with the bank- constitute something of a record when mrs mckinnon was first en gaged- the standard bank of canada was in charge but this bank as most people know was absorbed by the commerce her work was
