Free From Sciatica
for 35 Years
In Perfect Health at 73—
Thanks to Kruschen
Thirtyrfive years ago this septua-,
gen^rian was helpless with sciatica.
Then he heard of Kruschen, Since
that day, he ihas enjoyed perfect
health. Here is his remarkable story:
“Thirty-five years ago, I had , a
severe attack of sciatica, and could
scarcely move for about six weeks,
Then I started, taking Kruschen—
about half-a-teaspoonful every morn
ing in foot water, In a few weeks,
I got rid of the awful pain in my
hips. I haye never had to consult a
doctor since, and am still in perfect
health at '73 years of age, which 1
can only attribute to taking Krus
chen Salts every morning.”—7T.A.
Most people grow old long before
their time because they neglected
one vital need of health—the need
of internal cleanliness, Eventually,
they start the 'healthy Kruschen ha
bit. Then probably for the first time
in their lives, they start getting rid,
every day, of all waste matter from
the system. The result is renewed
health and vigour. Ailments due to
clogged systems vanish, youth re
turns, and life becomes really worth
living.

Former Crediton Lady
in Her 106th Year
Mrs, Eliza Motz ,one of the old
est women in Manitoba, and a
former resident of this community,
celebrated her 105 th anniversary of
her home in Napinka on Saturday.
October 9th. Mrs. Motz was born
near Exeter and was married at
Crfediton, moving to Manitoba a few
years later. Her husband died at
Napinka in 1927. Mrs. Motz had 12
children, 10 of them still living and
five over 70 years of age. She is a
great great grand mother. Her
family consists of Mrs. C. Halls,
Pipestone, Man.; Mrs. F. Sandiman,
Souris, Man.; Mrs. E. Irwin, Welland
Ont.; Mrs. J. Ford Weaber, N.D.;
Henry Motz, Crediton; and Mrs. F.
Mulvey, George, John, Wesley and
William all of Napinka. Mrs. Motz
was quite active and enjoyed fairly
good health until this summer when
she had a fall, causing head injur
ies requiring seven stitches in hei’
face. She is completley recovered
from her accident and able to rise
daily and do minor tasks about her
home. Mr. Roland Motz, of town,
is a grandson.
“May I tell you gentlemen and
guests here tonight that I am per
sonally, behind the arena project
for our city of St. Catherines one
hundred per cent, I firmly, believe
that to be the outlet for the abun
dant energy and healthful exercise
of our boys and girls and the most
wonderful substitute for street-cor
ner lounging. Such a project would
be an admirable one to close those
avenues of juvenile delinquency
that are now so evident and a bolt
upon the escutcheon of our fair city.
The recent youth survey of St. Ca
tharines .has shown a lamentable
lack of facilities for winter recrea
tional activity there and I bring to
you, gentlemen, tonight the strong
est plea of community aid in over
coming this gigantic burden of ju
venile delinquency,”
The above quotation, emanating
from Judge J. G. Stanbury, guest
speaker of the night at the annual
banquet and prize presentation of
St. Catharines La'wn Bowling Quo
at the Hotel Leonard, came from a
clear sky and electrified the gather
ing of over tihree-score guests. It
was in closing his first appearance
as a speaker to the lawn bowlers and
concluded a most interesting dis
course in which he had traced the
history of the summer pastime from
the 12th century. As Judge Stan
bury made the iplea for support to
the project, he was greeted with
spontaneous applause and the gath
ering later went on record as sup
porting the (project as suggested, IOO
per aent., naming a committee to
meet tihe arena “boosters” with a
view of the inclusion of a curling
rink in connection with the skating
hockey edifice. Pres. IF. W. Gra
ham ably acted as chairman, Mont
Morey leading in community singing
with Bert Gray at the piano. Mayor
Wright introduced the guest speak
er.
History Traced * »
Judge Stanbury was accorded a
splendid ovation on arising. He voic
ed bis personal pleasure at joining-
his fellow bowlers of the green and:
while not a member of the city; club
through judicial pressure of busi
ness, he hoped to become affiliated
during 193 8. Uipon the topic of the
night his address was timely, in that
he undertook to supply his hearer
bowlers with the secret of becoming
what is known to their fraternity
as “kitty touchers.” Judge Stanbury
traced the history of lawn bowling
to the 13th century and in the reigns
of Edward III and Richard legisla
tion was enacted to forbid it in Bri
tain because it interfered with ju
dicial duties. King Henry VIII re
stricted bowling to Christmas Day
only repealed in England 9 6 years
ago. Biased bowls were introduc
ed first in the 16th century, as is
proven by the works of Shakespeare
after which the speaker recounted
the historic episode of Drake and
■the (Sipartisih jAirmanda, attributing
the admiral’s delay to his desire to
procure a kitty, toucher. He stated
that Calvin, the great moralist, was
bowling in Geneva when visited by
John Knox as the latter entered
study under Calvin. Judge Stanbury
was rich in anecdote on the secret
of his subject matter and took the
gathering through the reigns of
James and Charles of the Stuart
families, who brought the game into
disrepute in Britain. He recounted
how bowling was denounced by the
Puritans and how Scotland' joined
bowling and curling to make them
tihe national games in the old land,
thence the Colonie. Clubs then or
ganized during the 17th century all
over Scotland, but the original one
was at Southampton in England in
1299 where the greens set out are in
use today for lawn bowling..
