Findlay FURNITURE DEALER A FUNERAL DIRECTOR FLESHERTON 90 Licenses Issued The First Day FISHING IN EUGENIA HYDRO LAKE EUGENIA MAXWELL Friday evening, yes all night and all day Saturday, Eugenia was a stirring little burg. Mine host Mun- shaw could not accommodate all the visitors on Friday night Fisher- men came from Toronto, St. Cather- ines, Niagara Falls, Gait, Listowel and other points. They arrived here at all times Friday night to be ready for a good day's fishing on Saturday, May 15th in the Eugenia Hydro bas- in The season opened on Saturday last and all anglers are required to pay a license fee of 50 cents per day for the privilege of catching the speckled beauties. Great credit it due Mr. W. E. Morgan, who as- sisted in securing the right of fish- ing in the lake here. Fishing on Sat- urday was not 30 very good, owing to unfavourable weather conditions, but nevertheless some beauties were captured. Now, since the fishing right has been obtained, our vill- age should be made to look as at- tractive as possible. How more ad- mirable our park would look if a rus- tic seat was placed here and there beneath some well-trinuned ever- greens. A couple of artistically built booths would add to the pictur- esque scene. Come join the throng and have a day's fishing. Secure your permits from Mr. W. E. Morgan who has been appointed by the gov- ernment to issue licenses, and a most capable man, Ernie Is, for the position. He issued ninety on Sat- urday.
