I understand that some time ago a by-law was passed in Magrath which stated that sidewalks were reserved for pedestrians exclusively sHas this law been repealed or is it just being ignored? Yesterday in my travels of Sour blocks along main street,Iwas ask ed to resign my position on the sidewalk no less than five times. The signal to move and move in a hurry Was a low persistant ’’toot, toot”,’’Here I come”, or some low inaudible mumble all of which meant you move because I canTt stop." The first encounter came from the rear and not hearing the low mumble, I marched blissfully on-only to be stopped.The next thig I knew I was mixed up with handle bars, spokes and peddle chains, while an amatuer cyclist was cussing me profusely for not getting out of the way.It happened' . the bicycle was-borrowed and theCh was afraid I would have to help meet expenses.I SI®.I bought myself a new pair of stockings. From the first encounter I learned that no matter what t'He signal I was to be on the alert and jump but-now comes the question as to which way to jump.On meeting another amatuer I made ready to move but the child zigzagged after; me first from one side to the other until finally the ground was her destination. • My patience was exhausted andl thought it was time as Magrath grows to be a cycling' town that we draw attention to the previous mentioned by-law_._^eai^. pgdestit Brown canvas button style- rubber soles. . 69 and. 790pr.

As here we sit and write this down We're thinking of the South, of. town Where; dwells a man in his eeauuiful home Which he's made so ey work alone In.fr^ontsof his place, some time ago .He planted six trees, and watched them grow . But alack and. alas. it. seemed somehow They offered a treat for some stray cow And as sure as they'd grow to he two feet.high She'd eat the leaves,and the tree would die And instead of giving up in despair Our friend resolved that with more care He'd make those trees the pride of town If some stray cow didn't eat then down. So he planted them over twelve times nigh The trees are growing nice and high To Name's rules he showed adferene And he won out through much persever -ence Our friend take this not as condemnation' For we extend, to you, Coongraulations PRIFT BUST.

While speaking with a woman from out W&st we were tilci what good prospects they had fir a crip and of the advice Bill Ellis gave her,two years ago'. At that time they had no cows or chickens and. their wheat, (700) bushels was all gone. She asked for one month's relief.The constable refused -shd'explained to her that the whet' should have been kept to live on. Last year they kept their share of the crop,(400 bushee),and with eggs,butter and a few hogs have lived. Mr. Ellis should visit every man in the district and give the same advice. Every farmer should keep enough wheat for seed and some live on unil another This family profited'by the advice Mr. Ellis gave them. In most cases a Bill Ellis ' should be sta^oned at every farmer's gate to keep out peddlers, insurance and automooile agents and collectors and divers kinds of parasites who live off the tiller of the soil. If the crop matures all the collectors in the province wi^l make their headg^a^e^ at Magath as in the past. In olden days it was seven years of plenty and seven years of famine.Now it is fourteen years of famine brought about by high pressured salesmen, and collectors. --- JA --- We find that By-law #17 prohibits bicycle riding on the sidewalks.
