Newmarket Has City Spirit,
New Christian Pastor Finds

- ■

New Pastor, Rev. Alex.

Stein. Welcomed By

Congregation

Members and adherents of the
Congregational-Christian church
met in the Sunday-school room
on Friday evening to extend
a welcome to their new pastor,
Rev. Alex. B. Stein, and Mrs.
Stein.

After a short sing-song. Miss
Dorothy Cotton, daughter of Rev.
and Mrs. Henry Cotton of Trinity
United church, rendered a beau-
tiful solo. Misses Helen Epwonh
and Eileen Jackson played a
lovely piano duet, and Donald
Cribar gave a cornet solo.

Rev. Mr. Morton, formerly of
the Congregational-C h r i s t i a n
church of Stouffville gave a few
words of welcome.

Rev. Henry Cotton, in his
words of welcome, said "God
made us one and we must learn
to live as brothers and ack-
nowledge One as our father and
Saviour. The foundations of
the world are shaking. We. in
our Christian fellowship, repre-
sent a world that cannot be
shaken. The congregation makes
the minister and we as ministers

have only one person to please —
God-
Rev. C. H. Way, president of
the Christian Endeavor Confer-
ence, was present to welcome
Mr. and Mrs. Stein, who are
Christian Endeavorers. "Never
before/* he said, "has the Christ-
ian church had as great an op-
portunity to spread the gospel as
they now have. If we believe in
Him we have a purpose in life to
perform."'

'The same Lord and Master is
the master of us all," said Rev.
J. A Koffend in extending the
welcome of St. Andrew's Pres-
byterian church. "The kingdom
of God comes first, our work is
second."

Rev. Burton Hill expressed his
regret at leaving the town and
not having the opportunity to
work in fellowship with Mr.
Stein. The church is needed
now ax it never was before. We
must become a living witness for
the Master."

Mr. and Mrs. Stein replied
graciously to the words of wel-
come. "This town," Mr. Stein
said, "carries the aggressive
spirit of a city. It has a great
spirit of kindliness. We have a
large task to perform and we can
fulfil it only by God's grace.
Without him we are weak. Let

Camp Goes Down Fighting,
Two Games, Only 21 Hits

Successful Season Ends

With Two-Game Series

With Toronto Team

It took a Toronto senior team
to do it, but it must be admitted
that it was done. Newmarket
jcamp team, champions of the
Newmarket hardball league,
have been put out of the inter-
mediate "A" O. B. A. semi-finals.

Two encounters found the
wind blowing in the same direc-
tion. Morse made it 3-2 in
Toronto last Thursday, and 4-0
in Newmarket on Monday

evening.

The Toronto pitcher, Salsman.

held the soldiers to six hits in
the city game, and Newmarket's
Richardson replied with only
five for the civilians. The city
guys put in for Monday's game
Allen, a left-hander, who chis-
elled the soldiers down to three
hits. Richardson allowed seven
hits, several of them triple-
basers.

The game Monday came to a
sensational end with McKee,
the Toronto left-fielder, making
a 30-foot run to glove-hand the
ball a few inches from the
ground.

Pastor Regards Movie
As Harmful To Morals

TWICE SHOT DOWN

"Our fastest plane in the last
war is comparable to a trainer
in this war/* Rev. Henry Cotton,
until recently an R.C.A.F. padre
and now pastor of Trinity United
church, told Newmarket Lions
club on Monday evening. Mr.
Cotton was in the air force
during the last war and was
twice shot down, the second time
to become a German prisoner.

H. E. Lambert introduced Mr.
Cotton. President Frank* Bowser
was in the chair.

Mr. Cotton exhibited a wood
model of one of the "pusher 1 *
[{that is. with propeller in the
rear) biplanes of the last war in
which he did most of his flying,
lie said that these planes were
variously known as "old crates,"
"bird-cages ' and "flying pianos."

"Our maximum speed with
the Beardmore engine was 75
m. p. h. near the ground and
55 rn. p. h. at our ceiling," Mr.
Cotton said. "This was ten miles
per hour when we got Rolls-
Royce engines.

"These were our best bombers.
We carried, in addition to our
machine-gun ammunition, eight
20-lb. bombs or two 100-lb.
bombs. Very rarely would a
bomb do more than destroy
a room in a house. Today our
modern bombs, as you know, will

Express: After all that has been
said, there are many people in
Newmarket and vicinity who. are
opposed to "The Birth of a
Baby" film advertised in your

proach on modesty and a harm-
ful thing to the morals of our
rising generation. Our prayers
for peace will not avail much
while our morals are low.

Baby," referred to above, was

pensions and national health,

BRINGS PLANE HOME

Flight-Sgt. William F. E. Cane,
son of Sheriff and Mrs, W. H. S.
Cane of Toronto, formerly of
Newmarket, was critically
wounded during the raid on
Dieppe. When the Luftwaffe
tried to dislodge landing troops
Bills plane was hit and a piece
of shrapnel struck him, entering
his right lung. A large chunk
was blown from the right win?
of the plane. He flew his dam-
aged Spitfire home to England
and landed it without crashing.
After a critical period in hos-
pital, he is now convalescing.

ward Mosley of the Royal Can-

Mr. Cotton praised both the
Allied planes of today and the
modern air crew.

Telling something of his ex-
periences in France during the
last war as an observer, gunner,
bomber and photographer, Mr.
Cotton said that at that time
the Germans had air superiority.
The Allied planes had a large
blind spot in the rear underneath
and there was no way of fighting
the enemy plane that got under
your tail.

Mr. Cotton told of two en-
counters with the German ace,
Richthofen, in his red Albatross
plane. The first time, on the
German side of the lines without
an escort plane, Mr. Cotton was
taking a photograph when the
German power-dived at the
British plane. His machine-gun
fire just missed the pilot and put
the engine out of commission.
The pilot made a pancake landing
on Vimy Ridge on Allied terri-
tory. Mr. Cotton was unhurt.

The other time the shoe was
on the other foot. Richthofen
was trailing a lone British flier,
and Mr. Cotton ordered his pilot,
and accompanying planes, to
dive on Richthofen. They fright-
ened him off but didn't hit him.
When the German ace brought
down Mr. Cotton's plane it was
Richthofen'? 50th of 80 he was
destined to get before a Canadian
finally brought him down to his
death.

Mr. Cotton's plane down on the j

retary* Newmarket Civilian

Defence Committee

It has long bten feared that
the Japanese would make raids
on continental U.S.A. and this
morning the radio announcer
told us that incendiary bombs
had been dropped in Oregon's
forests, probably by a Japanese
plane from a carrier. It would
be well to know what Ottawa
says about extinguishing such
bombs.

Tests on both sides of the
Atlantic resulted in the discovery
that ib solid stream or bucket of
water is the best way to combat
incendiary bombs. It exting-
uishes the bomb in a few seconds
and incendiaries, usually dropped
in dozens, demand quick action.
If possible play water on it from
a safe distance, and if it should
happen to explode the stream
from a base will keep molten

fragments away.

Earlier it was suggested to use
a spray or fog, but it takes much
longer time. When water is con-
centrated on a bunting incend-
iary bomb it may explode in a
hail of molten particles, each one
of which may start a fire. 'Hies*'
molten pieces can. however, 'be
put out easily and are not as
dangerous as the bomb itself.
Don't let them lodge between
your clothing and skin or in your
eye.

Therefore, instead of losing
time by spraying the bomb,
A.R.I*, workers and civilians arc
advised to direct a stream of
water on it and thus drown it.

On account of not being able
to get a suitable speaker for the
public meeting advertised for
Sept. 22, this has been postponea
and a new date will be set am
soon as arrangements can be
made for a good get-together.

Great War Vets. To

"More and more veterans are
getting into the modern battle-
dress, taking over jobs and re-
leasing younger men for the

front line," L.-Cpl. Jack Granger,
who is in charge of the Aurora
recruiting office, told The Era
and Express this week, stating
that veterans of the last war are
needed. L.-Cpl. Granger is a
veteran of the blitz on London.

"1 can still remember the
words of a recruiting, sergeant
when an old soldier stood before
him at the start of this war eager
to offer his services and don the
uniform once more in defence of
his country; 'Sorry old timer.
This is a different war from the
one you were in. It is going to
take a younger man to do
the job. You are too old,*"
L.-Cpl. Granger related.

"It is the veterans* war too
and even though they aren't in
actual cornbnt they arc still
fighting," he said. "The young
soldic-rs of today have swallowed
their words. We do need the
veterans. We need more than

a distiller, but he does this personally."

Whiie we appreciated Mr. MacKenzie* dis-
interested interest in fishermen, we thought that
there were not enough fishermen calling at our
office to have him leave a pile of his entry forms
m our counter. We might have sent him across
the street to the selective service office. We do
hope that he puts on his distillate the advice he
puts on his anglers' entry form;: "Keep well
within your limit."

SOME CALL IT
A REVOLUTION

Tom. Sawyer's method of getting help in white-
washing a fence, Sam Slick's method of selling
i clock, or Dale Carnegie's rules for winning
friends and influencing people, would work just
as well in China, Russia, Germany or Britain as
they do in North America. That is, human
eature is the same the whole world over. People
ire much the same. Their behavior does vary
to some extent as a result of different education,
national traditions, different experiences, just as
the New Englanders of today differ from the New
Englanders who used to hang witches, just as
the Englishmen of today differ from the English-
men who used to hang pickpockets, or as the V. S.
southerners of today who lynch negroes will
differ from their descendants of 200 years hence.

The sharpest differences among human beings
seem to be between those who speak different
languages and therefore do not understand each
other. In Europe French and Germans and
English again and again make war upon each
other. In Canada French and English misunder-
stand each other and frequently say things
which should not be said.

There seem too to be sharp differences between
those who have much property, either inherited
or acquired through their own ability, and those
who have little property. Here again differences
are but superficial. At heart, rich man and poor
man are alike. They ha\-e a different background
and a different outlook, different interests. In
times like these^ when racial differences are
being emphasized, property differences are less-
ened. Rich and poor rub shoulders in Britain.

In Canada we have Conservative "laymen** at
Fort Hope saying: "For us it is an axiom that
svery person able and willing to work at socially
useful tasks must be assured of gainful occupa-
tion with sufficient income to enable him to
maintain a home and family." The Russian con-
stitution says: "Citizens of the U. S. S. R. have
the right to work, that is, are guaranteed the
right to employment and payment for their work
in accordance with its quantity and quality."
Canadian Conservatives and Russian Communists
are getting pretty close together. Hie former are
in this instance more radical than the latter. It
is a far cry from the days when we couldn't
trade our cattle and oil!

CHURCH'S DILEMMA

While we do what we can to promote the war
against Nazi Germany, short of trying to compel
others to do what we are not doing ourselves, we
do not try to fool ourselves into thinking that
to kill (and we are all associated in any killing
that is done regardless of what individual
happens to release the bomb or pull the trigger)
finds approval in the teachings of Christ. The
logical person will regard our present war against
Hitler as a temporary departure from Christianity
made necessary by other departures we have
aiado from Christianity.

At the same time, while we resort to surgery
to save the world, wc should expect the Christian
church to keep alive Christian principles so that
on them wc may build more soundly in the
future. We should still look to the church for
the secret of living as happily as possible with
the un-Christian job we have undertaken, but wo
should not expect the church to help us do the
iob. We should look to the church for comfort
and consolation, and for what approval she can
give, but not for participation. The church must
be a padre, not a combatant.

Taking this viewpoint as to the function of
the church in war-time, we feel that the general
council of the United Church of Canada is going
beyond its province in passing a resolution which
a council spokesman interprets as favoring over-
seas conscription. A church council must in
passing its resolutions always feel the presence of
the Master who said: "Resist not him that is evil;
but whosoever smiteth thee on thy right check,
turn to him the other also." He may have been
mistaken, but it is not for a church council
to say so.

SPREAD YOUR BREAD
UPON THE WATERS

Unreasoned sentiment plays too large a part in
the decisions of nations. Whether it is a larger
part than unreasoned sentiment plays in the de-

cisions of individuals we do not know. We think
it is.

. TTse ^second front" — a polite name for a pros-
pective sacrifice of hundreds of thousands of
lives— is' urged out of sentimental regard for
Russia's determined and splendid fight against
the Germans. Russia deserves no particular
sympathy. It is the same Russia that made
unprovoked war on Finland. There is no room
for sentiment. Russia should have all possible
help, but only because she is helping to defeat
Nazi Germany.

There should not be a second front because
Premier Hepburn attends a Communist inspired
meeting in Toronto to "'urge offensive action and
total war." Advertised with the phrase "Back
up the men of Dieppe/* the meeting betrays in
advance its emotional, illogical basis. These
people attending a meeting in Toronto will not
be giving their lives on the "second front.'*
There should be a second front only if the United
Nations high command decides "in cold blood"
that a second front will advance the United
Nations cause. The "second-fronters'' are not
giving the responsible men a chance to decide
the question on its merits.

While military decisions are outside the
province of the masses, decisions which bear only
upon our own pocket-books we can make or help
to make. For instance, there is no reason why
we should not hold mass meetings to urge that
Canada give instead of sell $10,000,000 worth of
flour to Russia. That would not be emotional.
That would increase our own taxes, not give
somebody else's life. There is just as much
reason to give to Russia as to Britain. We are
giving a billion dollars worth of materials to
Britain, but- we sell S10 T OO0,OOO worth to Russia.
We should regard Russian soldiers as our soldiers
and help to equip and feed them without re-
muneration. When we enable Russians to fight
on we well may be saving Canadian lives.

CONSIDER THE RECORD

A Toronto newspaper quotes with approval
"H. CV in the High River (Alia.) Times as fol-
lows: "Last week the annual meeting of the
Canadian Institute on Public Affairs took place
at Lake Couchiching. This is a sort of Chautau-
qua where journalists of the Winnipeg Free Press
school and professors of the Underbill type settle
international affairs by the simple process of
debating them in a manner wholly detached from
the realities. Post-war reconstruction is a
favorite topic because we haven't reached that
point yet and may not even have a say in it when
it does come. If all followed their example wc
should be as clay in the hands of the potter/*

Of course we all believe in debate and dis-
cussion as a means of progress, but admittedly
we have different ideas of what the realities are.
As for not having a "say" in post-war recon-
struction, that just depends on us. If we do not
study, think and discuss now, if we do not put
forth our viewpoint when the world sits down to
the peace table, we shall not have a "say."
Perhaps it would be as well if we didn't have
a "say," for the record of the past 25 years shows
that we Canadians may have had just a little too
much "say" in international affairs. We know
all about U. S. responsibility for failure of the
League of Nations, but do we know enough about
Canada's record at Geneva?

Look at a little booklet called "Consider the
Record: Canada and the League of Nations,"
written by Gwendolyn M. Carter, and published
by the Canadian Institute of International
Affairs and the Canadian Association for Adult
Education.

The writer of this "Behind the Headlines"
pamphlet describee Canadian policy at Geneva
as "prevailingly negative in character— which in
some circumstances may be no small con-
demnation."

The story is that Canada under Sir Robert
Borden wanted international recognition as an
independent nation and so went into the League
of Nations in 1919 when the United States did
not. Canada fought against the Covenant's
Article 10, which bound the members of the
league to preserve the territory of other
members against aggression, and Article 10,
which provided for sanctions against a nation
which started war in disregard of the League's
provisions for settling disputes by arbitration.
From 1920 to 1D23, Canadian representatives, "of
Conservative and Liberal governments alike,
worked against the guarantees of Article 10,"
and finally secured passage of an interpretative
resolution to the effect that recommendations of
military measures should take into account the
geographical situation of each state and that each
slate should decide for itself the degree of
military help it should give in enforcement of
League decisions.

The British nations, "Canada among them,"
played a "major role" in the rejection of.Jhe
Treaty of Mutual Assistance, 1923, and "the
Geneva Protocol, 1024. Canada's representatives
said that Canada was a producer, not a consumer,
of security. Canada was said to be living "in
a fireproof house far from inflammable
materials." 'The effect of the Canadian action
in regard to Article 10 was to discredit the will-
ingness of non-European countries to support
the collective system. The rejection of the Treaty
of Mutual Assistance and the Geneva Protocol,
to which Canada contributed though by no means
decisively, weakened belief in the League as a
general security system."

In 1925 the Canadian Liberal government
announced specifically that it was not bound by
the British Locarno guarantee of the French-
German border.

With regard to raw materials, international
trade and immigration, Canada "had a tradition*
ally exclusive policy. With regard to minorities
it was traditionally liberal. On Ihe latter subject

it had something valuable to demonstrate and
did so effectively and in a timely fashion" (M.
Dandurand as the Canadian representative told
the League that the secret of successful treatment
of a minority was to make it forget that it was
a minority).

Professor Arnold Toynbee (Miss Carter writes),
speaking in 1936, declared that: "It seems to me
that what really sent the Italians to fight
Abyssinia was two things done by North Ameri-
can countries. The first was In 1921 when the
Italians raised the point of access to raw materials

and the Canadian delegate stamped on it; and
the second was the passing of two American
immigration acts in 192 1 and 1924, which" pro-
duced this mass of baulked young men in Italy
who had to be turned to something, good or bad/'
During the Japanese invasion of Manchuria,
1931 to 1933. when the League had its first major
failure, neither Canada nor any other govern-
ment endorsed the American declaration that
the United States would not recognize territorial
gains made by force. In 1932 the Assembly
representative of a Canadian Conservative
government was one of three speakers* out of 25
who did not condemn Japan's action, tfftey were
Japan, Britain and Canada. Later, out of defer-
ence to public reaction in Canada, this country
endorsed a League report condemning the
Japanese position in Manchuria.

In 1935 the Canadian representatives of a Con-
servative government played a leading part in
imposing sanctions on Italy when that country
invaded Ethiopia. Canada accepted all of five
proposals for action against Italy. Then a change
of government took place in Canada and Premier
King, "aware of considerable opposition to
sanctions," issued a ''cautious statement, endors-
ing the sanctions which had already been
accepted, but declaring that others would be
considered on their individual merits."

Dr. Riddell, the Canadian advisory officer at
Geneva, who had played an active part in bring-
ing sanctions into play against Italy, now
proposed that petroleum, coal and iron and their
derivatives should be put on the embargo list.
This was to be considered on Nov. 29. Premier
Pierre Laval (the same) of France, who had a
secret agreement with Italy, secured a postpone-
ment of the meeting until Dec. 12. Before that
date the Canadian Liberal government issued
a statement saying that Dr. Riddell's proposal
for "oil sanctions" had not been made on its
initiative but was merely the personal suggestion
of Dr. Riddel!. This, coupled with the publication
a few days later of the Hoare-Laval plan for the
partition of Ethiopia, took "the heart out of
League efforts/'

"There is good reason to believe that oil
sanctions would have prevented the Italian
campaign ifi Ethiopia from being a success."

* The abiding lesson to be learned from the
League's experience in the Italo-Ethiopian con-
flict is that the decision to enforce any system or
any judgment implies willingness to use force.
It is clear that a course of action should not be
initiated unless it is to be carried through. But
you cannot meet situations by avoiding initiative.
Mr. King could say, as he did, that Mr. Riddell
had acted without instructions. Others could say.

as they did, that no initiative should ever be
taken by Canada. But to secure peace, sanctions
may at some point be necessary. Undertaking
a program of sanctions implies imposing measures
sufficiently strong to stop the aggressor. The
inescapable logic is that sanctions may in the end
mean war. But the dominions and Great Britain
alike were unwilling to face this possibility, not
only during the Italo-Ethiopian conflict but
throughout the whole post-war period; and their
unwillingness was a root cause of the weakness
of the collective system."

You may not agree, H. C, with Miss Carter's
review of the lull between the two wars, but you
should agree that Canadians have not only
a right but a duty to study their own mistakes

and successes and to plan more wisely for the
future.

OUSTING THE FARMER

(Simcoe Reformer)

We learn that the dominion government has
purchased some 6,000 acres of farm land near
Meaford for an artillery and tank training centre.
In the area involved there are softie 100 farms,
four or five churches and about the same number
of schools. The block takes in all the land form-
ing the Cape Rich entrance to Owen Sound Bay.
It is a great apple district with about 9,000 trees
and an annual shipment of about 10,000 barrels
of apples.

We do not know the considerations that led
the government to take so drastic a step. The
ousting of farmers from their patrimonies and
the closing of country churches and schools seem
to us at all times to be disastrous to a country;
for the strength of a country lies not in its cities,
however large and opulent, but in its farmer folk,
who have their roots in the soil and who, genera-
tion after generation, raise families of strong,
sturdy yeomen and supply the country with its
leaders. In an overcrowded country where
vacant lands are unknown such a step in wartime
might be justified; but in Canada, with its plenti-
ful supply of wide open spaces and still unsettled
lands, such a wholesale ejection of- farmers from
their lands seems regrettable in the extreme.

NONE BETTER

Of People And Things

THE COMMON ROUND
By Isabel Inglis Colville

In these days when we wait
with strained nerves for the
United Nations to take the of-
fensive, in Europe or in the east,
it is sometimes good for mind

and body to turn to the small,
homey, everyday things about us
and get what pleasure we can
out of them.

Just now, from where I am
sitting, I can see two families of
baby squirrels, three in each
family, and they are learning
the ways of their particular
world. Three of them, as far as
I can tell, live in one spruce tree
and the other three in another.

Since they first appeared a few
weeks ago, we never see the
older squirrels. Where are
THEY?

The tiny ones come down and
play and chase one another
about and then carry the bread
I put out up the trees. Are the
parents taking a well earned
vacation and making the children
earn the living for the family?

Its a splendid problem to try
and solve when your mind
wants, instead, to try and look
ahead and see if Hitler will
reach Stalingrad, and even if it
doesn't effectually block out the
worry, it gives a sort of momen-
tary relief.

I read an article once, in the
Reader's Digest, "Animals are
human, too," and I thought of it
as I watched what took place
the other day.

I soaked some of the bread
for the squirrels in milk and
watched what happened. Along
came one little pensioner, picked

William Philip Simms. writing from Washing-
ton to the New York World-Telegram, says: "It
is nothing new for Canadians to be good soldiers.
There is none better anywhere. During the first
world war nothing made me prouder than to hear
Allied generals compare our doughboys with
the Mapleleafers and to be told that ours were
just as good." Mr. Simms was war correspondent
during the Great War and saw the Canadians in
act»on on the Somrac, at Mount St. Eloi, Sanctu-
ary Wood and Vimy, also at Passchendaele and
Lens.

Ontario, with three battalions
in the Dieppe raid, suffered *hc
heaviest casualties of any prov-
ince, 1.235 Ontario men being
listed this week as missing.

The United States marines are
.ill holding in the . Solomon
Islands, despite intensified eff-
orts by reinforced Japanese
troops and strengthened sea and
air support. The Japanese have
lost 21 planes in five days of
fighting.

The Red army defending Stal-
ingrad has smashed successive
assaults by fresh German troops
west and southwest of the em-
battled Volga city, which is al-
ready in flames from Nazi dive-
bomber raids.

Russian planes were appar-
ently making another attack this
week on Budapest, one of the
targets in their recently opened
aerial offensive on Nazi eastern
territory. British bombers struck
heavily at the Axis from the
west on the second anniversary
of the decisive battle of Britain.

The Japanese in Burma, who
killed 1,102 persons in raids on

impact of the United States air
force twice in the last week.

Whitchurch township, once
noted for the wolves and dogs
that preyed on sheep, paid its
first claim for sheep killed and
worried by dogs this year when
Warren Graves presented a claim
for $32.50 for three animals
killed at $10 each, and $2.50 for
one damaged, at a meeting of
the council on Saturday. Motion
for payment was made by Coun-
cillors Logan and Evans.

In a letter to the council, Mc-
Cu Dough & Button, Stouffville
barristers, asked that considera-
tion be given to opening the
sideroad from the ninth conces-
sion to the farm of H. Mitchell,
who complains that he has no
winter road.

Mr. Mitchell had appeared at
a previous meeting and staled
the case, but it was felt that it
would cost too much for a satis-
factory job of widening the road
in relation to the amount of
(axes paid.

Road Superintendent Widdi-
field didn't think that a couple
of days with the grader would
improve the road much, although
considerable thought was given
to the question. The situation
is similar to several other side-
roads where only one farmer is
living, it was pointed out. How-
ever, Councillors Baker and
Logan favored seeing what could
be done with the grader in one
or two days' operation. Over
$9,000 of the township road
budget has been spent, n later
report indicated.

The solicitor informed the
council that township part-time
employees do not come under
the new unemployment insur-
ance regulations. Where it is
known that the employment will
not exceed eight weeks in the
12-month period, such persons do
not come under the act. How-
ever, if the employed person
holds an unemployment insur-
ance book, then he comes under
the act.

Reeve Earl Toole announced
that he had signed a tax sale
warrant, as directed by the
council at a special session. Re-
turns of back taxes are flooding

Relief for July totalled only

Councillor Lome Evans intro-
duced a resolution petitioning

phone, it requires the petition of

up a piece of the bread and milk,
smelled it all over, sampled it
and instead of taking it up the

tree, down he sat and ate it, theri

he went from piece to piece

picking out the milky ones and
eating them. Then he clasped
his hands on his tummy and sat
and thought, after which he
picked up a piece of DRY bread
and flew up the tree.

Now this is repeated every
day: master squirrel turns up his
nose at the dry bread and looks
for the bread and milk. Wooly,
the grey kitten, sits with his ears
flattened down and his tail
quivering and watches the
squirrel, but they don't seem
afraid of him and he doesn't try
to disturb them.

I saw two of the squirrel
babies do another funny thing.
They were sitting facing one
another on a branch. Then,
suddenly they patted each other's
paws for a few seconds, touched
noses and ran off in different
directions. And how they drink!
I often wonder if they fill their
little cheek pouches with water
and carry it to their parents.

And Wooly, too, is developing
very uncatlike traits! On Sun-
day we were leaving home for
a few hours, and, as the day was
so lovely, we left him outside. .
Now he often stays out of his
own accord for hours, but in the
strange way in which animals
sense things, he had refused to
go out all morning; followed us
upstairs and down, and when we
left he sat on the verandah and
lifted up his voice in long wails.
We had never had a cat do this
before and found it upsetting,
but he was waiting for us on
our return and quite ready at
supper time to pull poor Speck's
tail and lie across his neck so he
couldn't eat in any comfort.

He follows me into the garden
and helps me dig potatoes for
dinner. He loves to dig! Maybe
like me, he'd like to bury Hitler
and all his crew in one of the
holes.

Sometimes he — Wooly, not
Hitler— pretends he's a jungle
beast, and he's in ambush to
spring at me as I pass. But
jungle beast, or just plain cat,
he and the squirrels and birds
form a pretty pattern, and as I
said before, are good for me
when my brain refuses to even
imagine the magnitude of the
struggle we're engaged in, and
after looking at simple things
for awhile I can go back and
listen to war news and feel that,
to paraphrase a famous saying,
"God's in his heaven, all WILL
be right in the world."

One can certainly sympathize
with each of those types of
persons. Most of them are eager
to play a full part in the war
effort, and, while doing so, they
have a right to enjoy a decent
standard of living nor should
they have to look to the future
with a dread of unemployment
and want. f

More security should come to
the workers with unemployment
insurance. In peacetime as well
as wartime, useful work must be
provided and cadi wage-earner
must be in a position to provide
his family with the necessities
and a few of the luxuries of life.
A good general education and
practical training for a vocation

Thousands Depend on
the Army of Mercy

in Time of Need

• A war for democracy places unusual burdens
on all of us. But we cannot overlook the needy
at home. That would be treason to democracy.

There are many with whom life has dealt
harshly. Human weakness, failure of relatives,
unfortunate circumstances — one or all of these
may have put them in dire need*

Long experience in dealing with
human weakness and want qualifies
The Salvation Army to be YOUR
agent in this work of brotherhood.

That is the reason for this Home Front
Appeal. Money is needed. The work
MUST go on. With YOUR help,
it WILL!

f Look out, folks, here comes
trouble! Henry Aldrtch. radio's
No. 1 trouble tot, is on his way
with his pals, Dizzy and Phyllis,
and the kind of hilarious diffi-
culties into which only Henry
can get himself.

"Henry and Dizzy/' Para-
mount's latest Aldrich adven-
ture.* is due Monday at the
Strand theatre with Jimmy
Lydon as Henry, Charles Smith
as Dizzy and Mary Anderson as
Henry's girl. Phyllis. John Litel
and Olive Blakeney are Henry's
harassed parents. Also in the
cast are Vaughan Glaser and
Maude Eburne.

From all reports. "Henry and
Dizzy" is first-class film fun for
all.

•They Died With Their Boots
On." the new Warner Bros, pic-
ture which opens Monday at the
Strand theatre, with Errol Flynn
and Olivia de Havilland in the
co-starring roles, brings to life
on^ the screen one of the most
stirring chapters in the history
of the old west. But even more
than that, it tells for the first
time on the screen, the true story
of the man who made the phrase:
"Custer's Last Stand." a syno-
nym for deathless courage.

Gallant and adventurous. Gen-
eral George Custer won himself
an eternal place in the history of
his country when he and his
army regiment perished to a
man, fighting in the knowledge
that certain death awaited them,
but they also knew that they
would be holding off the enemy
until reinforcements would be
brought. It is this courageous,
but hopeless, battle which makes
the climax of "They Died With
Their Boots On.'' as turbulently
exciting as anything the screen
has ever done.

Flynn is cast perfectly as
Custer, and he has done a mag-
nificent job of bringing the
historical character to life as a
very real kind of person, build-
ing up his man Custer in such
a way that his magnificent act
of heroism at the ctose of the
story becomes perfectly logical
and believable. As his sweet-
heart and later his wife, Olivia
de Havilland scores one of
the notable hits of a lustrous
career. In her capable hands,
Beth Custer emerges as a fine
and courageous woman.

"Take a Letter. Darling," stars
Fred MacMurray and Rosalind
Russell. -

The secretary-boss relationship
has received a lot of attention
in motion pictures for the last
few years, ^nd you may have got
tired of it. If so. take heart, for
something new and hilarious has
been added in "Take a Letter,
Darling.'*

Here is a movie that does a
complete about-face, for in it
Fred MacMurray is the secre-
tary, and Rosalind Russell is the
boss. Going still further off
the Irack, MacMurray doesn't
know the first thing about short-
hand or typing. He is hired
strictly for his good looks, his
ability to wear dress clothes
without looking like a head-
waiter, and his irresistible gay
way with the ladies.

This week I desire to write on
"Fellowship/* You will find that
the dictionary describes this word
as "companionship," and who dot3
not know the meaning of this
word?

U* Urf go back, as memory
allows U3 to do, over tbe years,
perhaps many years for some— for
others only a few. However, do
you recall, us you wended your
way to school for the first time,
everything seemed new and
strange, you saw faces you had
never seen before — perhaps it was
their first time to school as well.
Do you remember trying to make
an acquaintance with these young

people?

Yes! I believe you do; I believe

you even remember choosing a
certain young person who, at first
sight, you thought would make a
good friend and as the days and
month? passed, you found you had
a real companion, one upon whom
you could depend and whose pres-
ence was helpful and pleasant.
This friend, you found, would al-
ways share their joys with you and
if, when you were sorrowful be-
cause of some unpleasant happen-
ing, would try, in their beat
manner, to bless and cheer you.
Fellowship? Yes, this was fellow-
ship Indeed.

Even the sound of this word
brings a warmth to one's heart
and especially does warmth come
when one 3peaks of "Fellowship
with Christ."'

Fellowship with Jesus? Is this
possible? r#et ua look to God's
Word and see what He has written
for us. Paul In his first Epistle
to the Corinthians, the first chap-
ter, verse nine, writes— "Cod is
faithful, by whom ye were called
unto the fellowship of Ills Son
Jesus Christ our Lord." This
gives us i-ome proof of the ability
God gives to everyone to have
fellowship with Jesus.

What does God say in I John,
6? "If we say we have fellowship
with him and walk in darkness we
lie and do not tell truth." He not
only points out the possibility to
have fellowship with Christ, but
the writer here states that if v.*e
haven't fellowship with Jesus we
are walking in darkness. It is
written in Eph. 5:J1, "Have no fel-
lowship with the unfruitful works
of darkness/*

Many people ask this question,
"If it ie possible to have fellowship
with Jf-sus, how do we go about
It?" I want to ask you this ques-
tion, dear reader, "When you
associate with people day by day,
week by week, year by year, do
they not become familiar to you?
Why. of course, they do. There-
fore familiarity with Cod comes
with communion and association
with Him, day by day, year by
year.

Communication is important in
peace or war— it makes possible
co-operation with man to man.
CornmunicUion with God is more
Important— it means co-operation
and fellowship with Him.

How do we commune with Cod?
Why, by prayer, through faith In
our I-ord Jesus' Christ. It is writ-
ten, -Ask, and ye shall receive."
Also in James 1:5 we read, "If any
/>f v.vj tack wisdom let him ask of
fJod that givcth to all men liber-
aUy."

"There is also another
and with this I shall close for to-
day. We know that when we hold
& conversation with anyone. It
means they do the talking as well
as we ourselves and so it must be

BORN IN LOG HOUSE,
MARKS 80TH BIRTHDAY

Mrs. Ida Cook celebrated her
80th birthday last Thursday. A
surprise birthday party, which
saw all her children, two of her
brothers, grandchildren and
great-grandchildren present,
brought her special delight.

Mrs. Cook, who before her
marriage was Ida Mount, mem-
ber of a well-known King town-
ship family, was born near
Kettleby and was educated there
in a log school.

In her early twenties she
married the late John Cook and
until 1916 they farmed on the
sixth concession of King. Since
that time she has resided in
Aurora. Mr. Cook died in 1918.
She has been a regular attendant
at Aurora Baptist church and
has taken a deep interest in
church affairs.

Lieut. Jack Dent, who coached

is a swell fellow and was beloved

Connie Smythe. he believes that

and kept in their place, no*, made

degree.

Lome Evans, the -Milton goal
sensation of last year, now headed

is keeping fit by playing lacrosse
with Etobicokc juniors, who look

Milton last year. Is also on the
team. The sensational juvenile
hockey line of two other Gillcspius
and Hoare. which won a crown
for Orangcville last year, is also
with the Cokes and apparently
headed for an ice season with one
of the Toronto junior teams.

Bill Armstrong, who played
junior for Aurora two years ago
and last year was with Hill Han-
cock at Penetang. is currently
being sought after by both Oshawa

Ed. Wildcy may get him, as
Oshawa light now is pretty well

who were against him? What are

Mike-' as the best of Aurora play-
ers, just as we think of Teddy

That's a pretty fair aggregation
Yake has gathered together and
unfortunately I guess we'll never
be able to settle the issue on the
playing field. Over the years n
stronger team might have repre-
sented Aurora in softball but our
point was that In any one particu-
lar year Aurora never hail a hotter
aggregation available and we .still
think we're rlyht. Had forgotten
all about 'Big Mike" Shapki. the

Tfus worm turns, or at least a
friend of ours who is a piscatorial
fiend, tells us that worms used in
fishing are now rationed. With
all the fancy bait that is supposed
to lure fi^h out of a sand-pile and
waters filled with good live bait,
many anglers still prefer to use
worms for bait, although they are
not especially anxious to creep
ever moist lawns at night with
lanterns or flashlights to find
them. The custom has been for
stores In the fishinjr centres to
have supplies sent from a bait
company or for local youths to
gather them up for sale. Now the
kids are doing something else
besides looking for worms, and the
stores say they can get only a
limited amount. It took a bunch
of worms in charge of the Axis
powers to accomplish the change.
Probably fishermen may be figur-
ing the extra numbers in their
ration books are for worms, but
so far it's not government imposed
but simply because demand exceeds
supply and the worm hunters are
practically a thing of the past.

Graham TeasdaU", the big Aurora
lad who resides in Buffalo, has not
waited for his number to be called
in the draft but has joined the
American army of his own free
will and is stationed at Buffalo.
From al! we hear Tiny is in a
branch of the service similar to
the army service in Canada. With
the exception of Herb. Mitchell,
Griham is the only Aurora boy to
have made good in the pro hockey
ranks. After junior service with
Aurora, Newmarket, and Toronto
I.ions, he turned to the moniod
ranks with the Toronto Million-
aires and then followed a Ions and
honorable career in the minor pro
ranks at Buffalo. Syracuse, Wind-
sor. Kansas City. Omaha and
several other clubs. He had
several brief appearances in the
N.H.L. but missed his big chance
through injuries. He was a real
star in the minor leagues and both
Syracuse and Buffalo fans adopted

him as their own. With over ten
years of service under his he-It.
although comparatively young, he
decided to quit before hearing too
many scars of battle and for the
past three years he has worked
for a beverage company at Buffa-
lo and coached amateur teams in
that city. Three years ago. while
on a brief visit here, he took n
hand at showing some of the
Tigers the fine points of the game
and they benefitted greatly. It
was too bad ho couldn't have
stayed to the end. I-ast year ho
aeted as linesman In the home
games of Ihe Buffalo club and in
his first year ns an arbiter made
a fine impression. Toasdalo. a
big strapping fellow, never gave

nor asked for any quarter on the
Ice and was a hit of a badmait.
On the field of battle he will be n
tough homhro to see hearing down
on the enemy and he'll neither
ask for nor give quarter there.
Tiny, now an American citizen. Is
a credit both to his own and to
his adopted country.

for so ninny years have been the

Since 1032 there has not been n

S u n «! n y lm»rJmll has created

(he subject of quite n hit of com-
mont, bath favorable and unfavor-
able. Fine Silk Mills nnd Pone-
tanjr Clerks played n game In
Midland park which apparently
was carried off with considerable
success and attracted quite a
crowd. Mayor Oliver Smith of
tho northern town gave permission
for tho gamo on the understanding
that no entrance fee or collection
would bo taken nnd none was. "It
wna just a friendly game, and I
cannot sco that anyone was dono
any harm. Softball games have
heen played oil summer in Little
Lake Park. Tennis goes on nil
summer on Sunday afternoons and
tho golfers play on the golf
courses. The council was ap-
proached early in tho year to see
if we would permit a regular
schedule of softball games to bo
played In tho park on Sunday
nfternoons but wo turned It down.
The question Is one that la sure
to be very much alive next year,
an the tire shortage becomes much
moro acute and leas motoring la

some form of amusement If thev
cannot go to the beaches. The

day, Sept. 7. All the members
were present.

A deputation of summer resi-

for regulation or abatement of

speakers claimed it interfered
with the peace and quietness of
the area, which they came up

here to enjoy. The owner con-
cerned called on the council
later in the afternoon. His claim
was that the premises were
orderly and that the disturbance
1 complained of took place outside
where he had no control of it.
The opinion of the council was
that some police work at late
hours in this area would improve
matters.

W. Eves and Mr. Powers, "rep-
resenting the Keswick Beach
Association, requested permis-
sion to erect a wooden archway
over Road No. 1 where it entered
Keswick Beach and also asked
that a slight fill be made to im-
prove the intersection at the
same point. The council granted
their requests.

The council re-appointed W. E.
King of Bceton as auditor. The
foundation for the township's
new storage shed was inspected
and there was some discussion
regarding construction of the
building. The matter of ar-
rangements for snow-plowing
during the coming winter was
also talked over.

he had made a search of the
accused's premises an<l adjoining
land. He stated that he came
acro&£ a hole in the wire fence
which surrounded the Foun-
tain property and upon following
for about So feet a path loading
from this hole he came upon
fire-box and a mash barrel in
which there was some mash
residue.

About 70 yards farther along the
path he found the still.

"The entire thing was hidden by
a clump of cedars and covered with
an o!d mackinaw coat and cedar
branches." stated the witness.

"Was there any other pathway
leading to any place other than to
Mr. Fountain's home?" asked
Crown Attorney X. 1* Mathews.
K.C. The officer replied that there
was no other path leading to the
stilt

Cross-examined by the counsel
for the defence, the officer admit-
ted that there were a
stills in the district.

"Did you sec any refuse from the
house o%*er the fence?" asked the
defence.

"If you mean bottles, there were
about 5.000 empty whiskey bottles,"
replied Constable Hayward-

'•Are you aware that cattle have
broken in through the fence into
the Fountain property before?"

"They would have to be very
small cattle to get through that
hole/' replied the witness.

Questioned as to how recently
the still had been used, the officer
stated that he would say that it
had bean used three or four days
previous to the search.

"Could it not have been three or
four months?" questioned defence
counsel. The witness replied that
It could not have been that length
of time.

"The residue of moonshine in the
boiler that length of time would
cause it to rust." he stated.

Questioned as to the defendant's
condition when he later saw him.
Constable Hayward said that "he
smclled of illegal spirits but was
not drunk."

"I searched the house but didn't
find anything," testified Constable
Robert Brown, of the R.C.M.P..
who stated that he had assisted in
the search made on Aug. 14, "In
a small unused chicken-coop, I
found a gallon glass jar. In it
was about a tablespoon of liquid
that smelted of illegal spirits. On
searching the property adjoining
on the west about four feet from
the hole in the fence. I found a
bottle half full of spirits. I took
possession of the bottle rnd sent a
cample of Its contents to Ottawa
to be analyzed. The report show-
that it was 66.4 percent pure al-
cohol." The officer added that as
there was not enough liquid In the

.Jlon jar. he did not have It
analyzed.

"Could the liquid in the jar be
wine?" questioned counsel for the
defence. "No, it smelled of spirits."'
County Constable Alex. McCal-
lum explained that he had aided
Constable Hayward in the search
of the outside premises. In ref-
etencc to that officer's statements.
Constable McCnlluni stated that
they were correct.

"Old you see the coat before?"
asked the crown.

"I saw Mr. Fountain wearine »
coat similar In appearance before,"
replied the officer. He denied
having seen evidences of small
fires which could have been made
by picnickers in the district, cr
evidence of cattle grazing widen
coutd have broken the fence.

County Constable William Ili!l
corroborated Constable Hrown's
statement that the liquid found l»
the gallon jar was spirits and not
wine. He also stated that he had
seen Mr. Fountain wearing a c«Jt
during tho last winter similar t«
that produced in court.

Giving evidence In her husband's
behalf, Mrs. Fountain stated that
her husband was employed In war
work at Malton. She stated that
there was considerable traffic
thraugh the property known as
I»wc's estate west of her home
(where the still was found) ami
that she was accustomed to throw
the refuse from the house such as
potato peeling?, etc., to the ten
head of cntle which grazed there.
Referring to the gallon jar found
In the chicken-coop, she said that
some city friends had brought it to
her home filled with wine nnd that
when It was empty nh« had placed
it In the coop with sonic stove-
pipes. She nlao slated that tour-
ists mode fires along the river
bank. Questioned further by the
defence counsel she said that a
neighbor hnd been convicted of
having a still on the some property.
Upon cross-examination by Mr.
Mathews for the crown ahe »ald
that her husband had not been
working the week that the police
hnd searched the premises. She
would not admit that he was on
strike.

"Could you swear that your
husband was not on strike from
war work that week?** questioned
the crown. The witness replied
that she coutd not swear that he
wn« not on strike.

When counsel for the defence
objected to the queries of the
crown on this point, the Utter
■tated: "If she can Imply that ho
was working on war work we can
go further and show that he was
on strike at ths tune."

Questioned further Mrs. Foun-
tain adrrJlUd that the convicted

neighbor had moved from the
vicinity four year* previously.

into a charge of theft against Dr.
it Gordon Webb, Sherbourne St.. Tor-
onto, hii worship sent the case on
for trial before a grand jury. The
defendant, who elected to be tried
by a court of higher jurisdiction,
was charged with taking articles
to the value of $50 including a
radio, a mattress and an electric
toaster from Mrs. Herron. Orchard
Beach. Lake Stmrne. on Aug. 2.

According to Mrs. Herron. she
had rented an apartment in her
cottage at Orchard Beach to Dr.
Webb from June 13 to Aug. 13 at
$60 a month. She said that she
had received two amounts for 530
and given him receipts. When
he tried to remove the articles
from the apartment on Aug. 2.
she forbade him to do so until he
number of paid $60 rent owing. The witness
said that Dr. Webb then made out
a cheque for the amount and took
the articles. When she deposited
the cheque In the bank he had
stopped payments.

Pleading guilty to
forging and uttering a cheque in
the amount of $10, William Calvert.
R. R. 3. Bolton, was placed on
suspended sentence for three
months upon making restitution
and paying costs amounting to
$13-50.

According to County Constable
William Hill. Mr. Calvert admitted
making out a cheque for the sum
of $10 payable to himself and
signing the name of Donald St
John. The officer stated that the
forged document had been giver,
to a Pefferlaw storekpeeper in

exchange for merchandise and
cash on March 26. 1942.

Before Magistrate Mcllveen
handed down judgment. Crown
Attorney N. U Mathews. K. C.
drew to his attention the fact thatij «
the defendant had already served in
six months in Burwnsh for forg-
ing S i cheque on March 30. 1942.
He pointed out that the cheque
in the present charge was forged
previous to the cheque in the
other instance, and if the two
charges had been laid together the
defendant would have been given
suspended sentence on one of tho
charges. His worship agreed with
the crown and suspended sentence.

Ruling that there was insuffi-
cient evidence in the charge of
theft against a 17-year-ol«l Peffer-
law youth to warrant a conviction.
Magistrate Mcllveen stated that
he would give him the benefit of
the doubt and dismiss the case.

The youth was Charged with
Stealing a pair Of handcuffs, valued
under $25. the property of County
Constable Alex. McCnllum. A
second charge, of receiving stolen
goods, the same handcuffs, was
also dismissed.

Missed Dieppe Raid
He Tells "Vet" Father

An interesting letter has been
received by Wm. H. White, war
veteran, from his son, Tpr. David
White, who is with the Canadian
army overseas.

"Just a note to say I am still
alive and well. We are still in
the south of England and expect
to be here for a while, perhaps
all winter.

"I missed the Dieppe raid. Our
regiment was in reserve in case
of a counter-raid, so we stayed
on the coast on this side. Per-
haps it is best that I wasn't
there. A lot of my pals in the
Essex Scots arc missing and

charges of tMe R-H.L.I. and Royals had a
tough 'go* too.

"I haven't heard how the New-
market boys in the Royals made
out, but I am hoping for the best.
I saw Earl Wrightman and he
said Walter didn't go over, but
outside of that I ha%*en't any
facts. But 1 suppose the news
will reach you long before this
letter arrives.

"We spent a few days with
Aunt Mary in Derbyshire on my
last leave and were much im-
pressed by the beauty of
countryside.

"Smokes are hard to get,
chocolate. I haven't had
fags for a month or so.
Vets are my only source of
Canada."

Without a healthy' curiosity
we'd achieve very little in this
world. Notice I say a healthy
curiosity, for. as wc all know,

there is a certain brand of curi-
osity that is distinctly not
healthy! Tnat must be the kind
that is described in the old Arab
proverbs, "He who peeps in a
window may lose an eye."

To describe what exactly is in
my mind—well, for instance,
think back to Inst summer when
I used to write about the bird
that said '.'Peter, Peter, Peter"

all day long. Certainly the curi.

osily of the whole neighborhood
was aroused, yes and of others .

The trailer of Mre. Frank

afternoon of Iatt week while
Mrs. Clarke was away. A puree,

Capt. ft W. Brightwell took
the topic of "What is a Sal-
vationist" at the soldiery and
friends meeting recently in Ihe
Salvation Army hall.

"The Salvation Army," he said,

"is made up of people who know

thai their sins are forgiven and

are uniied in love to (hid nnd

man. Tho Army is in over J>1)
countries.

"The Salvation Army was first
known as the Christian Mission,
when it was organized hy Gen-
eral Wm. Booth in 1805. Owing
to ils groat extension, in 1875 it
was changed to the Salvation
Army because it is an 'army of
salvation.'

"One of i ho main beliefs of the
Army is the transformation of
life from wrongful habits to
rightful living.

NKWMAKKKT TRAM SCORE

looking at us, one after tho other.
with its sharp eyes it doffed its
cap several times, scrambled
down, and then held out tho tin
cup to each one in turn. We
were eating candy and 'Svhat
monkey sees monkey must do."
mi the little fellow wanted some.
Of course we gave it some, and
I can see tho animal yet fairly
bolting those candies as fast as
wc could hand theih to it, while
down below the organ-grinder
was hauling in the rope to make
"Carlo" go down—the man yell-
ing ;at tho monkey, and the
monkey chattering back at tlu>
man, but making no move to go
down!

No doubt the Italian was:
curious as to what wo were
feeding his monkey— and the
monkey was curious as to what
was in that delectable candy!

Alas! The monkey and the
organ-grinder are no more! Nor
the one-man German band, who
used to come round occasionally
to serenade folks. And tho
organ-grimier wth the dancing
bear! But it arouses no curios*
ity! No — wc know where they

Now look at all this nonsense I
have written, and I started off
intending to bo very serious! I
might tell about Pandora's Box

Up the verandah post it j hut I am trying to make my

column brief these days so I
think I shall just leave it at that!
However, I must say I am
curious to know how the birds in
their flight know when to all
wheel and turn or fly straight,
alt at the same time as one bird.
And again how they know when
to start for their winter quarters
in the south, and how they know
their direction in the dark.

Oh! There are a lot of things
1 want to know. Why do a cat's
eyes shine in the dark? Why
does a drake's tail curl up thnt
way? How do the spiders spin
such beautiful spider-webs? And
to finish up, how does the
"bamboo" that grows so luxuri-
antly in our gardens all summer
' and dies down to bare ground all
winter know how high it was
last summer so it can grow
higher this year? Now how
does it. pteasc someone tell me,
for it most certainly does and I'd
awfully like to know. Yes, Vm
curious!

What about Lot's wife. She
I* a good sample of curiosity —
not quite the first though, for no
doubt Mother Eve was tho first
on record. Wc used to say at
high school I/it's wife turned to

"rubber" so if they find her
turned from salt to rubber away
down there in Arabia or where-
ever she was supposed to be,
she'll be quite valuable. There,
I think that's enough nonsense
for one week!

TO MY CUSTOMERS:

Owing to the extreme shortage of labor I find it
humanly impossible to continue to give service to my
customers after six o'clock p.m., and on and after
Sept. 21 my store will close at 6 o'clock each night
excepting Thursday and Saturday nights. On Thurs-
day in conformity with other merchants 1 will be
open until 8.

As a war measure the saving of power is also im-
portant and I trust my customers will appreciate the
position and endeavor to co-operate and shop earlier
in the day.

Thanking you for past favors and assuring you of
my desire to serve you in the future.
