WINS HIGH HONOR Special honors of national impor tance have been won by a 'Kippen boy, Gordon. A. Wright, junior stu dent at Ontario Agricultural Col lege, according to an announcement just released by the Danforth Foun dation and Purina Mills at St, Louis, Missouri. Wright is one of the 31 American and Canadian college agricultural students to receive fel lowship calling for four weeks’ training in business and agricultur al’ leadership. This group of honor men are sche duled to arrive in- St. Louis on'Au- gust 8 and for two weeks will^be actively engaged in a study of tlie operation of -big business organiza tions. Then they are ;to spend two interesting weeks on the shore of Lake Michigan near Shelby, Michi gan, at the American Youth Foun dation Camp where recreation and inspiration will, be combined in a strenuous course of .leadership training along with other young people from all over America. These fellowships are awarded jointly each year by the Danfortn Foundation and Purina Mills, manu facturers of Checkerboard feeds and cereals. Wm. H. Dfrnorth, chair man of the board of Purina Mills, is tht founder and organizer of this special suinmer training coprse. In an interesting way he tells how this proj'ect came to be established. “Oftentimes, college graduates lose two or three years’ time in find ing their largest place in life,’’ Mr. Danforth declares. “To help stu dents made decisions, to enlarge their horizons, to broaden their con tacts—is the purpose of this four weeks summer fellowship. “For this reason,” he continues, “The Danorth Foundation and the Ralston Purina Mills are providing opportunity to one member of tne junior class of a grup of agricultur al colleges to study at first hand problems of manufadtuiring, sales, promotion, grain exchanges, stock yards, research laboratories, farm experimentation and management.’’ In the summer of- 1929, two agricultural juniors awarded a similiar fellowship,. 1926 thirty agricultural cedved this fellowship1, thirty-one agricultural .the, United States and ceived the benefit of this fellowship. This year tliirty-o'ne more are com ing in for the training. According to the established prac tice three candidates’ were selected by''the Dean of Agriculture at the Ontario Agricultural College and from these three the offieials ,of th© Danforth Foundation have picked Gordon A. Wright as the man whose ability and experience seemed’ to make his best qualified for the training. At College, Wright is President and Secretary of the Atheltic As sociation; active .'in wrestling, track and rugby; and interested in swim ming, skiing, gardening and nature study. He’s entered for the Cana- 'dian Olympic Wrestling Team. twenty were ,In juniors re in 1931, juniors in Canada re- Indigestion—Gas On Stomach Much Fatty Food For the past 53 year* MANUFACTURED ONLY by THE T.

The days when about all that anyone needed to do in the way of achievement was to put anything on the market have about gone. Th© days are right here when a dealer needs to do two things—he must produce a high grade article, or lie must secure a high grade article, and then do the real thing in mer chandising. Braggadocio and swashbucklering have had their evil day. Sane men no longer have anything to do with them. Men and business must come clean and strong or get out of the way of the serious minded and the capable. These are bad days fbr scrubs either among the live stock or among met. *********♦ SUPPLY AND QUALITY Two things are in the minds of the delegates to the Ottawa Conference as it seeks to solve some of the world’s ’ problems in matters of trade. First, will the country offering a commodity for the Empire markets supply that article in a steady uniform manner? Will the country looking for the article be able to de pend that the country supplying the article will have the goods on hand in good condition when the article is required. Along with this goes the other condition, namely that the, country offer ing to take the article in question shall be able to consume regu larly and-'to pay regularly for the article under discussion. Second, will the country offering the article for sale keep up the standard of the article in question, making only such changes ■ in production as shall a little more than keep pace with the ever- arising demand for a higher standard of quality in the article? Sufficiency of supply and uniform satisfactoriness of quality are the two oars of the producer’s boat. He cannot hold his plac& in th© race without both of those oars.

BISCUITS IN EVERY BOX SHREDDED WHEAT MADE IN CANADA • By CANADIANS • OF CANADIAN WHEAT RESCUES THREE FROM DAKE AT GRAND BEND / Three children who Saturday morning of last week were swept off their feet at Grand Bend- by a tremendous undertow, the atrer- math of a violent wind, owe their liyes to the fact that A. Stewart Thompson, who was walking on the beach with his small son, saw the three children,, two girls and a younger boy, some * distance from the shore playing in the water, which was rough. Noticing that their shouts were unusually insis tent he looked more carefully at the little group, and saw that what he had taken to be mere exuberance w'as in reality a desperate call for aid. Throwing of his shoes, he ran, otherwise fully clothed, into the water and swam out to the children. By the the ing that time the youngest child, boy, had twice gone down, and girls were off their feet and be? carried out into the lake. He was able to rescue all three, but had'a hazardous job in the heavy undercurrent running. Mr. Thompson t-akes the adven ture modestly. “It was the heavy undertow tfiat caught the children,’’ he said. “I had the greatest diffi culty in getting back myself. Any way, I gave the three a real good lecture and sent them home. They were all right after’ they had got to the beach.’’ The names of the three in dis tress were not available, "as their ■rescuer was satisfied with his safety first lecture. Today he is checking up on the vagaries of a watch that stopped at exactly 10.03 and tra velled with him on his life-saving expedition.

Edward Floody, of Toronto, a Hu ron Old Boy, was recently present ed with a gold ring by his primary lodge. He is a past D. of C. of the (grand ‘Orange . -Lodge of British America. He is a membet of the Brunswick L.O.L. No. 404, Toronto. H®W FORTUNES ARE MADE “'Fortunes are not made ip the boom periods,” said a competent Managing Director. “That is only the time When they are collected. They are really made in times of dullness/’ he said. “Then the wise, strong man,.young or old, overhauls his mind, his methods, his equip ment, and gets in training for the race that is to coni©.” This means that a firm is much like a farmer. A farmer does not make his money in the autumn. He makes it in the spring. He only gathers in his crops in the autumn. A farmeir who neglects his work in the spring months has a bad autumn, and a firm that does hot get r©ady dur ing a depression is likely to got les© than its share of business when good times* tome. « 4 571 men; women and children’ killed by motor vehicles in 1931 8,494 injured 0 If a tire is about to blow out or the steering gear or axle is ready to snap, you may not know it— But, you know whether or not your brakes are safe.
