There is an old adage which says: "a last straw can break a camel's back." Chancellor Hitler may find the British Bulldog slow to anger, but once his anger is aroused his reputation for hanging on once he has taken a hold would possibly prove very embarrasing to the Frueher. The fire brigade h^d a run Tues- day afternoon to the home of Mr. Wm. Johnson, two and a half miles south of Flesherton, and extinguished .â- I fire that was eating its way along I he woodshed roof, caused by sparks from a chimney. A small hand ex- tinguisher .soon had the fire controll- ed. Mrs. Johnson and daughter hud been using water but the fire had broken out in several places and it would only have been a short time until the hluze might have had too great a start. According to an American scientist twenty per cent of the United States drivers avoid headon collisions by less than a second. That is close enough to hear Gabriel's horn. Judge: "How long is it since you were in court before?" Prisoner: "20 year, your Worship." Judge: "And what have you been doing all this time?" Prisoner: -'Twenty years.'* NOIICE TO CREDITORS Take notice that all persons having claims or accounts against the estate of Annie Louise Dingwall, late of the Township of Artemesia, in the County of Grey, widow, are required to forward such accounts or claims together with full particulars thereof to the undersigned on or before the fifth day of November, 1938.

Eric Cross, Minister of Municipal Affairs. He says there are thirty-eight of these bodies oper- ating in Ontario at a cost of $167,000 and administering budgets totallingr $15,000,000, hence his department fails to see any advantage that might accrue from abolition of this "very necessary fonn of government."
