In an interview with The Liberal this morning Reeve Greene asked that citizens continue to refrain from using hose and sprinklers for lawns during the present dry spell. The water supply is somewhat im- proved he said but there Was still need to take precautions in case of fire or emergency. A number of dams up the stream were discovered and destroyed this week and the supâ€" ply has somewhat improved. The majority of citizens have co- operated in refraining from using hose for gardens but there are re- ports that some have disregarded the order. Reeve Greene emphasized the fact that it is most important that the order continue as if there should be a fire and the water supply in- sufficient it might be a very seri- ous matter. He intimated that a check up would be made and any who violated the megulaltions governing use of hose would be prosecuted. Water Supply Is Still Low Memorial Cairn, in honor of the Imemory of Adam Keffer, which will be unveiled at the special anni- versary services to be held at Zion Lutheran Church, Sherwood, next Sunday afternoon. According to the historian away back in 1849 when the Lutheran Church in Canada was in very serious difficulties Adam Keffer walked from Vaughan Town- ship to Pittsburth a distance of 500 miles to appeal for aid. His appeal was successful and Sunday tribute will be paid to the work of this sturdy pioneer.
