FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 1928 THE ARCADE LIMITED NEW FALL FROCKS Jaaidt ON THE JI SI TUL: GILLETT'S and Municipal Board of Peterboro, during the entire session which be- gan at 10:30 yesterday morning, and promising to occupy the great- er part of the afternoon, the appli- cations of some thirty-eight resi- dents of South Monaghan to have their names removed from a peti- tion represénts the climax to a» situation that has seriously disturb- ed the peace and harmony low existant in the municipality. The petition, presented to the corpora- tion of the township of South Monaghan had been signed by pro- perty owners who yesterday morn- ing sought to have the Board re- move their signatures from the pe- tition and also to have disapproved the by-law which provides for the establishment of a municipal tele- nhone system in South Monahan. Up to the time of adjournment, 12.45, the applications of more than half a dozen signatories had heen dismissed, the Board consid- ering that they had signed the pe- tition in the face of an opportun- ity to read what they had been signing Most of the applicants had claimed ignorance of the fact that the petition might prove com- pulsory or binding in any way, "shawa Luggage YOUR [INITIAL YRER Om Suit Case or Club Rag saywell & Son BOND ST. WES1 HORSESHOE STARS NEET AT ROYAL Best Team of Shoe-twirlers | doing inl the Dominion Will Be Picked Horseshoes are in the air--speaking literally as well as metaphorically, Last year the ancient game was brought into the Jimelight and gained recognition as one the national sports through the Canadian Cham- pionship Contest which was held at the Royal Winter Fair in Toronto. The cup emblematic of the Domini title, and gold medals, went to six- teen-year-old Bill Stothers, of Sar- nia, the youngster whose spectacular pitching was the feature of the meet, and his partner, Walter Kane. The sport was given the final stamp of official approval when Premier How- ard Ferguson and His Honor Lieut.» Governor Ross stepped out, dress suits and all, and distinguished them- selves by their enthusiasm, if not by their ability, to ring the peg. This year horseshoe pitching clubs have been organized in hundreds of Ontario to /ns and villages and a lot of promising material has been warm- ing up for the second Canadian Con- test, which will be held at the Royal Winter Fair, November 21 to 29, dur- ing the second week of the show, The contest is again being sponsored by the Ontario Athletic Commission, which has given approval to the rules which governed the last Canadian contest and which are generally ac- cepted throughout Canada and the United States, A great many local contests are being held this fall at the Ontario fall fairs, For the winners of these fall fair contests, a special contest has been arranged at the Royal. The winners and runners-up of this spec- ial contest will, in addition, be per- mitted to enter the semi-finals of the open contest for the Dominion Cham- pionship, Considering the remarkable way in which the game has gained in popul- arity, it is altogether likely that com- petition will be much keener at the Championship Contest this year, Many of the contestants in the 1927 match had been playing for only a few weeks, and the few expert teams had comparatively easy sailing. This year, the games will undoubtedly be hard-fought throughout, Entries should be in by November 1, and entry forms may be had by writing to the Royal Winter Fair, Toronto. Where fall fairs have of- fered a trip to the Roval Contest to the local winners, these winners should be provided with a certificate of their eligibility by the fall fair secretary, on i ------- "HOUSES MAY PASS FOR DISTILLERIES Windsor, Sept. 27.--The border export docks, which have been business here for the past 10 years with huge stocks of liquor on hand, are now empty and oaly "wharves," as the .result of new Federal legislation and the recemt activities of provincial police, The smaller exporters are com- pletely out of business. The recent lengthy "rum" court in Windsor, when nearly two-score exporters were fined a total of $38,000 for having liquor in places mot coun- tenanced by the Ontario Liquor Control Act, seems to have proven conclusively to the men in the busi- ness of selling liquor to the United States that they could no longer continue their old methods. The rule that no liquor could be kept in warehouses, which was the basis of the fines imposed, and that it must really be in transit all the time, has resulted in the small fry being forced out of business altogether. The larger exporters and the big combines which have plied up mil- lions in resources, are stiil anle to operate, They keep their liquor stored in railway cars until they can get it on the rum-runmning boats, but this is a costly method, as. demurrage charges are heavy and none but the bigger compan- ies can face them, Again, this method represents only a temporary expedient, accord- ing to those who are informed as to the exporters' plans, In place of the "fly-by-night ex- port dock and the 'wild cat" ex- porter, the development of a serie of large distilleries is now a cer- tainty in this district. At the pres- ént time incorporation has been completed, or is nearing comple- tion, of five distilleries in the bor- der cities representing a to.al capi talization of more than $10,000,- 000, All these plants, moreover, are to be located along the water fron, and in them well-known brands of whiskey and liquors will be blended and bottled and held for shipment "in the factory" instead of on the dock, The tamous expor, docks of the border have had their day, This is the time when the base- ball experts hope you have lost their spring predictions of the leag- ue's final standing--Chicago Even- ing Post, San Francisco reports its hottest day of the year, with a temperature of 88, Around here that's just a nice little warming up, -- Detroit Free Press, Visit our Hosiery and Glove Department, ments, THE EE O in y We Cannot tell you how lovely these Frocks are for $9.95!
