The Exeter Times-Advocate, 1933-06-22, Page 3J- Under Treatment that Creates Energy Some folks are naturally fat, "but there’s a lot of people who put on pounds of unhealthy fat because they haven’t got enough energy to move about to keep it off. It's not laziness in most cases— but a condition brought about by sluggishness of the internal organs —the liver, bowels, and kidneys. As a result, poisons and harmful acids that kill vigor, ambition, and energy get into the blood—the whole gener­ al tone of the body is lowered ana fat accumulates. Thousands of Koverstout men and women find in Kruschen Salts, a per­ fectly safe, sure, and beneficial means of reducing. The “little daily dose” of Kruschen Salts keeps the organs functioning properly every day, and fills you with such a feeling or radiant vital­ ity and vigor that before you know it you are fairly ‘‘jumping out of skin” with energy, instead of mop­ ing around—and reduction, follows as a matter of course—Nature at­ tends to that.

DONEGAL PIONEERS AT REST (W. H. Johnston) I visited the old churchyard, At Donegal so dear, To see the graves of those I loved, And shed a silent tear. 'Tis nearly sixty years ago When I first saw the place. But cherished memories are mine, Which time •cannot efface, Yes, igolden memories of men, Deserving greatest praise; They hewed their way to fortune through The woods of early days. For then the land was covered with Great forests, dark and deep, ,Of giant trees to clear away Ere harvest they could reap. '(Their work was hard beyond the ken Of those who live to-day, With chopping, logging, splitting rails, From morn till close of day. But they had cheer, those sturdy men In shanties dear but plain, For there the women whom they loved Contendedly did reign. For hope supreme filled all their breasts For future days to bring The fruitage of their labors great While happily they sing. In homemade cradles .slept their babes As well as those of kings, To mothers sweet they were the best They tugged at their heartstrings, They labored from morn till night With ne’er a thought of rest To help their husbands, brave and true, .To make a home so blest. With wives like, these, those stalwart men Worked on and never failed, With iron wills and hopeful hearts The hardest tasks assailed. One thikg was lacking in their lives, No house of God was here No gathering on Sunday morn, No minister to cheer.’ Their hearts were longing for the church 'To lead their lives arignt And teach them on the Salbbath Day The words of heavenly light. But lo, there came along the trails A godly man who preached, With trembling hearts they listened well, Their inmost souls were reached. The longing hearts of these brave men Responded to the call, And they were filled with happiness As on their knees they fall. And soon the house of God was built, God‘s acre set apart, For well these early settlers knew They had from friends to part. Some little children dearly loved, Found here a resting place, While one by one the older folk Learned they had death to face. How neighbors loved in early days The present ne’er will know, Then truest sympathy and love For weeping ones didst flow. For well they knew, the lonely hours The mourning ones would spend, On humlble homesteads' in the bush, Without their dearest friend. Thus as I sit with swimming eyes, And contemplate each mound Beneath which sleeps a loving friend, Their names are all around. My heart is filled with gratitude, That e’er such friends I knew, The best of men and wbmen they Whose hearts were brave and true Some day I hope to see again In l^nds Elysian fair Who made such an impress on my youth, When I wds free from care. < I charge you men of Donegal Around this sacred spot, That you will guard with jealous cafe The graves of those who’re not. ’Till when the trump of God will call From out this sunny slope, The souls of those whose active lives Were filled with .heavenly hope. ■ Dr. and Mrs, J.

A. ******** ■Cautious Sandy says that it is difficult for an empty sack to stand up straight. Bandy is a queer old chap. ***♦**♦.* The surest way in the world to keep one’s nose to the grind­ stone till one’s dying day is not to save as- he gets. a W " • w v « « • We have been having too many conferences- lately and nor enough of the old practice of attending to one’s own business. ******* ♦ There’s no difficulty about getting a place in the bread line, All one needs to do is to acquire a taste for dainties of one sort and another. June has presented us with an interesting variety of weather. But there has been none too much moisture. Indeed there is every prospect that the hay crop will be light and that the straw of the grain crops will be short. ******** Again we urge all who can do so at all, to make provision against the coming winter. Only the most unlikely circumstances are likely to make conditions any better than, if as good as, the conditions of the winter of 1932-33. Now’s the time to get ready. ******** We have our fears regarding the success of the Economic Con­ ference now convened in London, England. As long as nations are governed by their predispositions and follow the bias dictated by selfishness there is no hope of lasting progress. If these unholy principles prevail at the Conference then it were well the Con­ ference had not been held. Mutual suspicions get nations nowhere. ******** That appeal of the folk in the city for some of us to take a city child or two under our care for a couple of weeks this summer is worthy of every consideration. There are difficulties in the way, we know, but what of the child whose father has no work, whose last dollar of savings has vanished and whose mother has already scraped the bottom of the flour barrel? The Golden Rule goes as deep as human nature. ******** , EYES OPEN! Foi’ some unaccountable reason the nations of the world for a long time regarded Great Britain a.s a benevolent dame too poor spirited to resent any injury done her and too g-ood-natured to give tit for tat. All persons so thinking will do well to ponder the fol­ lowing considered words of .her Chancellor of the Exchequer. “Much as we regret the economic warfare which has arisen between us and other countries,” he said, “we must maintain .that warfare as long as the other countries have taken the aggressive and are unwilling to make auy repara­ tions or restituition for the wrong they have done us. That word “warfare” is worth noting. These be stern times, my masters. ******* * HARD TO PLEASE Pronouncement on the present economic and social conditions by the Toronto Conference has brought forth some spirited criti­ cisms on the part of a good many Canadians. A great deal of that criticism has been adverse. So there you are. If the church does not say anything about the dificulties of the business and social world, she is whacked because of her silence. She is styled glassy­ eyed and marble-hearted. When she speaks out she is told to mind her own business and to stop meddling with worldly matter*. It’s in order however to observe that the business and social world got itself into the present muddle by going their own way. For five long, tedious, terrible years the big wigs in the business world, the political world and the social world have wriggled and grunted and perspired to get out of their present hobble without doing anything to write home about. When these notables who got so little done put something across in the way of aleration that commands respect of the rest of us the church will welcome the stern command to mind her own business. Evidently the church’s critics are still very much in the woods.

SHERIFF MIDDLETON ANSWERS HIS CRITICS Quotes Act to Show He Was .Justified In Charging for Driving Judge At the Huron County Council Sheriff G. C. Middleton was criticiz­ ed by Reeve Peter Scott for collect­ ing $10 from the county for driving Mr. Justice Masten to Stratford in his (the sheriff’s) private automo­ bile. Reeve Scott pointed -out that Sheriff Middleton had neither a chauffeur’s or taxi license and had broken the laws of the county. Reeve Goldthorpe stated that the commit­ tee had refused to pay the account, but that the Sheriff had gone over their heads and received payment on an order from Justice Masten. Bright and early next morning the Sheriff addressed a reply to coun­ cil. In his letter he denied that either he or Justice Masten had broken any laws of the county. He charged that the reeve was “motiv­ ated with a desire to injure me per­ sonally by impugning my honesty.” The Sheriff’s- Act, chapter 18, R. S. O., 1927, section 29, was quoted: “When a sheriff is . directed by the court to perform any service or do any act for which no fee is provided, the sheriff may be allowed such fee as the court may thinx fit, and the same may be payable as the court may direct.” In His Official Capacity Sheriff Middelton also quoted the Administration of Expenses Act, and a special order-in-council, dated October 8, 1925, covering the use by sheriffs, crown attorneys, clerks of the peace, and police magistrates of their cars in the service of the Gov­ ernment. “I was acting in my of­ ficial capacity as sheriff and not as a chauffeur, and I have never at any time infringed either the Public Ve­ hicles ot the Highway Traffic Act,” the official stated. Further, the sheriff pointed out that his act saved the county over­ night hotel bills of the judge and court reporter and that County Coun­ cil might better employ its time, for the reason that “to date this discus­ sion has cost the county at least $50.” Reeve Scott, who was asked for a retraction and apology r)y the sher­ iff, refused both. He .said his reasons for airing the matter were not per­ sonal. “I would point out that the sheriff first presented his bill for $10 with* out any order, and that the audit board, “which includes .fudge Costel­ lo, refused to pay it. His action in securing Justice Masten’s order was an afterthought,” said Reeve Scott.
