From the Bowels
Bowel troubles, although happen
ing at any time of the year, are
more prevalent during the hot sum
mer and early fall months.
Summer Flu is one of the worst
troubles, but diarrhoea, dysentery,
colic, cramps and pains in the in
testines, or any looseness of - the
bowels should have immediate at
tention.
The action of Dr. Fowler’s Extract
of Wild Strawberry is pleasant,
rapid, reliable and effectual in help
ing to check the unnatural dis
charges.
It has been on the market for the
past 94 years, so why experiment
with new and untried remedies?

On Thursday evening this Station
held its first all “Local Talent” show
in the Recreation Hall. Variety was
the order of the evening and the
audience was treated to stunts, ac
robatic feats and musical numbers.
It is hoped that this initial effort will
be but the forerunner of numerous
productions featuring talent from our
own ranks. Much commendation is
due those who worked to bring this
first show to fruition. The audience,
appreciative of the efforts 'Of the
performers, roundly applauded each
act. Following, the performance our
Commanding Officer tendered a vote
of thanks to those who had made the
show possible.

Those who witnessed the softball
game between our W.D. Station team
and one from T. T. S., St. Thomas,
observed that when it becomes a
matter of enthusiasm and cheering
the girls put the men to shame.
Every play in the game was followed’ John Sherritt, of Stephen Township,
with intense interest. We might add
also, that many of .the decisions were
hotly contested. T, T. S. scored the
victory with a two-point lead. It.
was a grand game however for which

In addition to the solos, the choir
