EDGELEY THE LIBERAL, RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIC ‘ at Ottawa, Province of Ontario, this 2nd day of January, 1946. a Notice is here garet Penelope ‘Brown, 0 of Montreal, in the Prov' ce of Queâ€" bec, and-presently re ding at the City of OttaWa, in e County of Carleton and Prov' ce of Ontario, will apply to the arliament of Can- ada at the ne session thereof for a Bill of D' orce form her husband Norman Crosby Brown of the City of Montreal, in the Province of Que- bec, Esquire, "on the ground of adultery. rm Q. Our home is in the north coun- try and we are seven miles from the nearest town. My wife is ill and I work in the bush and cannot get to town very often. It is im- possible for us to buy fresh mill and I would like to know if their is any way we can get a supply of canned milk. A. Yes...go to the Local Ration Board in your nearest town giving them all details. From the inform- ation contained in your letter we are quite sure you will be able to obâ€" tain coupons for the purchase of a supply of canned milk, asthere is no fresh milk available in your dis- trict. ORDER. HELEN SIMPSON FLOWERS F0 11 Occasions Phone orde elivere any- where in Nort ge St. A. There is no Board regulation prohibiting bakers from requesting the customer to bring in extra sugar if they want an iced cake. Sugar is rationed for bakers and very of- ten their quotas are not sufficient to allow for special icing such as you wanted on this birthday cake. Q. I telephoned a bakery to make arrangements to have a birthday cake made. When I had completed arrangements regarding the name, etc. to be iced on the cake they told me I would have to bring in a pound of sugar from my own rations. Are they allowed to do this? A. Yes, there certainly is a ceil- ing price on furniture. Furniture dealers must not charge more for the same type of furniture'than was charged by them in 1941. Prices for such articles have always varied slightly from store to store and, of course, the same thing applies to- day. $2.55 does seem quite a diff- erence in price on one article and as you have given us the name and address of the store where you made this purchase we will check prices there. ' Q. Is there a ceiling price on furn- iture? I paid $17.50 for a chair a week ago and since then have seen the same chair priced at $14.95 in another store. A. In reply to the numerous en- quiries received about exchanging gifts we repeat once again...there are no WPTB regulations governing exchanges. Each individual store has its own policy regarding the making of exchanges and refunding money. Most shops are glad to make reasonable exchanges as they are anxious to satisfy all custom- ers. Perhaps they would allow you a credit slip and you would then be able to buy some other item when they have further supplies in. Q. I received a Christmas gift which is not the correct size. The store where it was purchased will not refund the money and they are unable to give, me the correct size. Are they allowed to do this? A. In reply to the numerous en- quiries received about exchanging Price Control And Rationing Information Spring. There Was a good attend- ance of members. The meeting was crnducted by Mrs. Langford who made it very interesting with lit candles, a map of Africa in the back- ground and the open Bible, symbol- izing “Light in Africa”. After the meeting a social half hour was en- :foyed with the usual refreshments by the hostess. ~‘ 'We wish Mrs. Harry Smith a speedy recovery.
