The Law may be summed up
in the single sentence "Work.
expands so as to fill the time
available for its .completion,"
This was directed particularly
'toward government workers
and civil servants. On this
basis it follows that the more
people there are on the job
'the sooner it doesn't get done
so the government hires more
people to help not finish it,
Whether this is a true state-
ment or .not I leave it with you
. to decide, I am not averse to
criticism of the government as
some of you-May have noticed
in previous articles but to give
that certain well known indi-
vidual his. due I feel I must say
that I think the government is
not alone in this weakness..
The other day I had an acci-

hades Rau Born
Burned With
Entire Hay Crop
Cerrespentlents)
The season's hay crop, 4,-
SO hales, was lost when fire
destroyed the large L-shaped
barn of Charles Rau, at RR 2,
Zurich, 73's miles west of Zu-
rich on Friday night.
Volunteer firemen from Zu-
rich and Beyfield were credit-
ed with saving the nearby
house when the fire threatened
to spread.
Mr. Rau and neighbours led
ten steers from the burning
barn.
Also lost in the blaze were
several bags of grain, a wagon,
f arm machinery, six electric
motors, an' electric grinder and
other equipment.
Mrs. Rau said a preliminary
estimate of damage was
$15,000.
It was the first alarm for
the Zurich Fire Brigade in over
a year.

Carry Number of
Hospital Insurance
At All Times
Every resident who is insur-
ed should always be prepared,
on a moment's notice, to show
the hospital his Hospital Insur-
ance Certificate, or give the
number. The need to go to
hospital could come without
warning.
Only one certificate is pro-
vided for each family, but
many people are keeping a sep-
arate record of the certificate
number where it can easily be
found in an emergency. The
telephone pads at home 'and at
work are good places to write
down along with other em-
ergency numbers. Another good
idea is for every member of
the family who caries a purse
or wallet to have the hospital
insurance number in it. It
could save a great deal of
trouble and cr'ncern.

Airman Jailed
On Liquor Charge
Provincial police in Goderich
on Monday morning refused to
release the name of a 23-year-
old Clinton airman jailed Sun-
day afternoon on 'a drunk driv-
ing charge.
The airman, arrested by Con-
stable J. B. Johnston, was
brought before Justice of the
Peace Mrs. Olive Sturdy, who
set bail at $500 cash or $1,000
property bond. The man was
to appear in magistrate's court
Tuesday.
Constable Johnston said the
airman's name was being with-
held because of "a death in' his
[family". Both the sergeant in
charge of the Goderich detach-
ment and the sergeant in
charge of the police district
refused to authorize release of
the man's name.

leather about a year ago and
just now has purchased another
supply,
Apparently the price was
painful. He went on to explain
that from the time I sell a cow
hide until I purchase it back as
sole leather it paSIWS' tough
nine sales (transactions, Each
one provides a profit to. the
dealer. He told me that he had
tried to buy hides locally and
sell direct to the tanneries but
couldn't sell .direct, He could
only sell toa dealer thence the
hide moved to a large whole-
saler and then to the tannery.
In; purchasing leather he can't
purchase from the tannery so
the leather follows a similarly
extended road baek. to the con-
sumer,. Parkinson's Law could
apply quite nicely here.
Again in chatting with a
couple of merchants in one of
our local villages I found that
both were bewailing the fact
that they had to keep their
stores open five and 'a half
days a week plus one evening.
They bath agreed that much of
the time they were twiddling
their thumbs' waiting for suck-
ers (excuse me I mean cus-
tomers). Yet I think both had
cottages at the lakeshore.
Would Parkinson's Law apply?
In contrast the farmer who
finds that he hasn't enough
cattle to 'keep him busy puts in
some pugs, If he finds that
since using a 'baler or harves-
ter there's room to spare in his
barn end there is a fair chance
that he can persuade the wife
or kids that cleaning eggs is a
good pastime, he puts in some
hens. Then it becomes a pro-
blem of crowding accumulation
of work into the time avail-
able. Parkinson's Law in re-
verse.
It seems to me that farmers
are playing the game by a dif-
ferent set of rules than the
rest of the population.
