The evening was spent in games and contests to the enjoyment of all who participated. The Toronto Daily Star printed a picture of Geo. Brackenbury's snow auto in its Saturday edition. The cut does not come out very clear, but an accompanying photo of the invent- or is a good one. The pictures and 4^rtice will appear next week. It was a grand thing for the County of Grey when Mr. DougaM McPhail decided to drop out of the auction- eering game. A regular grist of new licenses at |2S per has been taken out by those ambitious to cover his oM stamping ground. With all these new-comers Mr. Wn. Kaitting of -Osprey seems to be holding his own. The signatures to Mr. R. Allen's address and presentation as published last week were misleading, making it seem that three ladies had signed the document. The signatures should haw read, Mrs. (Dr.) Ottewell, Levi Betts and Jos. F. Sewell. Hurry at the last moment of typesetting was responsible for the misprint.

The degree work was exemplified with full musical ritual in a way to win unstinted praise from the Dis- trict Deputy, who complimented the Worshipful Master and his officers. Folowing the events in the lodge room there was a banquet at which address- es were made by visitors, the District Dep. and other Grand Lodge officers .\mong those who spoke were Hon. Dr. Jamieson, MJ.P., of Durham, who gave a sketch of the early pion- eer life of the Grey county pioneers who first settled this district. One of the musical numbers was a violin solo by Broadus Farmer, Toronto, accom- panied by Miss Gladys Cornfield, who was a former Flesherton resi- dent, and who is quite prominent in Toronto musical circles. The officers and members of Grey Lodge enter- tained the visiting friends from Grey right royally and everybody felt at home under the guiding hand of Dr. Howard Armstrong, formerly of Flesherton, who is Master of the Lodge.

Hickling on Friday last, when about fifty members and friends of the Women's Institute met to discuss matters in connection with the Mem- orial Park and to spend a social even- ing together. .\ Leap Year luncheon was served when the ladies had to secure their partners by cave man tactics. Some were captured under tables, some in comers and some quite anruably without much effort, just as things might have happened a million years ago. The ladies were blind- folded, which made the fun more funny. A nice collection was taken up and all went home feeling that they had a very enjoyable evening. A hearty vote of thanks was given Mr and Mrs. Hickling. ENG.\GEMENTS Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Caswell an- nounce the engagement of their daughter, Myrtle Elizabeth, to Mr. W.

Recognizing the value of Ford transportation, these peoples have purchased Ford products in such volume thai the sale of Ford cars and trucks equats the salcs of all other makes combined. As a result, the resources of Ford of Canada are now over $20,- 000.000. These resources mean ability to buy the best material at a minimum price. They mean the ability to organ- ize each process of production, from the purchase of materials to the compledon of the finished car, on such a basis that every non- essential operation is eliminated. The economies thus accomplished are reflected in Ford prices which, always coasistendy low, are now the lowest in htsuxry. This is what Ford resources mean to vou.
