R. A. Roberton, of • the Bay-

from .a slight sun stroke during
the past week and was not able
to do a full day's work during
the hot spell just past, Some of
.his friends in town, hearing that
he had a field of oats ready for
the barn, thought they might as

went down on Tuesday afternoon,
Miss Mabel Cantelon driving thein
in her car. They got the whole
field in and Just as the last load
was housed the rain came on, The
girls put in a merry afternoon, in
spite of some blisters on their
hands.
Miss Jessie O'Neil, who has been
teaching in Alberta for the Past i
couple of years, has accepted a
position on the staff of the Burl'
ington school and will be located
there after the summer vacation.
Many a man who thinks he
could manage the coal or food sit-

appointed officials is bested by the
weeds in his own small strip of
war garden.
Miss B, F, Ward, principal: of
the School of Commerce, returned
last week from a vacation spent
at her home at Rockville, Md.
She was accompanied by her AS
ter, Miss Marcy Ward, who will
