Thank God for it. *** ***** And now for the strawberries and cream! ******** And the sunshine and the moderate weather’ ********I Surely the world never looked lovelier than it looks just now. ******** Summer’s going! Gay little dandelion is in hie pen feathers. ******** Now that Conference is over we can settle down to work again. • «****•« And those June picnics! Let’s drive dull care away by enjoy ing life to it® fullest. ******** His Majesty the King is reported as suffering from a chill. He didn’t get it from the hearts of his people. ******** We saw three apples being sold for 25 cents. The man who produced this fruit and who wintered it is making a nice bit of money, ******** He will a smart man who will show how business can be car ried on successfully on an intranstate basis. There’s a lot of talli about this sort of thing that, while it sounds good, is the merest bunkum. *♦*•»*♦* THEY KNEW “Who is that' splendind looking man who is presiding?’’ a lady attending the London Conference last week at Stratford asked in our hearing. We swelled up t>o our full chest girth and to our five feet two and replied with a proud wave of our hand, “That is B. W. F. Beavers, of Exeter!’’ “Ah, and where is Exeter?’’ “That’s where Ben Beavers lives! That’s the town that’s going to have a big Gid Boys’ reunion this summer,” * * * *.* * * ♦ ONCE MORE All western Ontario breathed easier when it' heard that Hyatt, the man of many crimes, was once more in the hands of the law. Released as he wag through the clemency of the King, he immed iately, on his own confession, engaged in a Series of daring robber ies. In every sense of the word, he was a menace to society. When he was captured his car was an arsenal. Be it remembered that those weapons were not in his possession for the purpose of build ing a church. Only because he was beaten by the skill of the police, was bloodshed avoided. For a few brief days he was the hero, of his criminal world and of a few boys. But now he is a prisoner, a poor craven wretch that must and will ‘be taken care of by society. More and more criminals are learning that their career is almost sure t'o end in disaster. He defied society and once more society has won. ******** NO OTHER WAY All sorts of queer things have been undertaken in the world of finance. There has been an attempt at price-fixing. Governments have been attempting to closely regulate hours of work and have gone so far as to- say how much and how many useful articles shall be produced. These are but specimens of the fantastic efforts put forward to make the world happy and prosperous, These, and kind red efforts, however well meant, have failed miserably. They have failed because they have tried to restrict the efforts of men in the way of useful living. What has been gained in some ways has been lost in- other ways. And now comes the mess in which France has found herself. The pitiful thing is that so- many are eager to enter upon the control of exchange and of business' generally who simply do- not understand the tremendous! forces they are try ing out. All sorts of gatherings and of broadcasters tell just what should (be done about finances in general who simply do not know that when ladies bob their hair in Canada that if effects Canadian trade with China. Yet such is the case. They fail to see that when the churches adopted the cent-a-meal boxes for contributions for missions that it affected the mint at Ottawa. Well-meant efforts at improvement in such instances frequently make the latter state of troubled business worse than it® former. Indeed, the only way to get on is for every man to push his own business in accordance with the laws of the land and of God. By so doing, he will find that he is serving the welfare of the whole race. If Japan outsells us in certain articles it is up to,us to- invent and to manufacture articles that Japan knows nothing about yet which people want. That youngster we told you about who has made his pocket money out of groundhogs confided in us that he has cultivated other meat for his patrons next winter. He actually made his business. In our own way we may each of us, work and invent our way to progress. Hensail Council Hensall, May 27th, 1935 Special meeting of council held Monday evening at 7 p.m. All mem bers present.
