A city dude came over for some rabbit hunting last week -—all dressed up in a fancy cor­ duroy suit, fancy cap and leg­ ging, and hired little Willie Brown as guide and carry-all. While they were hunting, big rabbit jumped out of a thicket, looked at the city fellow, and dropped dead, “What happened to it,” asked the city man. “Laughed himself to death,” Said Willie.

Caused By Nervous Trouble Strained, tense nerves are often the cause of restless nights, Improper rest, night after night, is quickly followed by loss of appetite, irritability and a. tired, run-down condition.

CHATHAM, ONTARIO Lad ies and Gentlemen In view of the approaching by-election in this electoral district, the Temperance Federation deems it to be its duty to address you with reference to the temperance situation in the province, and this county, in particular. First,, we wish emphatically to disclaim any alliance with or inten­ tion- to promote the interests of eithei’ political party. In this county the temperance forces have no reason to look favor upon either party. Oux’ cause has suffered greatly at the hands of We do not forget that in defiance of law the Liberal Government of Mr. burn established beer parlors in this county and continued to operate even after the Supreme Court of Canada had decided that the Canada Temper­ ance Act was in force in Huron, and the Supreme Court of Ontario had de­ clared it to be valid law. When Mr. Drew’s government came to power it was appealed to, to right this wrong, but declined to do .so, choosing to continue the illegal practice of its predecessor. At the last session of the legislature, the present government had a law enacted that deprives this county of the protection of certain restrictive sections of the Ontario liquor laws—a condition that had prevailed for many years. This act we regard as one calculated to make the enforcement of the Canada Temperance Act more difficult and that will undoubtedly tend to pro­ duce lawlessness, drunkenness and disorder. We regard it as a deliberate ■attempt to weaken and discredit the Canada Temperance Act—a law declared by the highest court in the British Commonwealth and Empire as sound law, enacted in a democratic manner by the votes of the people, -and a law that by promoting sobriety has been of great benefit to the people. The Federation is gratified that the two candidates at this election, Thomas Pryde, Progressive Conservative, and Mr. Benson W. Tuckey, Liberal, are both men of estimable character. In casting their ballots, however, voters must consider not only the personal character of the candidates, but also the record of the Government. with both. Hep­ them The Federation submitted to each of the candidates the following questions: (1) If elected, will you in the Lesgislature insist on effective enforcement of all liquor laws throughout the province, and especially in Huron County? (2) In the interests of sobriety, law and order, and effective enforcement, will you in the legislature support legislation repealing Section 3 of Bill 151 passed at the session in 19 47, and which renders provincial liquor laws inoperative in territory under the Canada Temperance Act? Mr. Pryde answered the first question in the affirmative and with reference to the second stated that personally he sympathized with the IFedera- tion’s position, and that in caucus he would do his best to persuade his fellow members to adopt that view. He felt, however, that in the House he would have to vote with his party. Mr. Tuckey answered both the questions in the affirmative without reservation. In the verdict expressing vote fox’ a A vote for an opposition candidate is a condemnation of the a democracy, governments are required to submit their record of the people. Elections are held to give the people an opportunity approval or disapproval of the Government’s Government candidate is an endorsation of the conduct in office, government’s government’s acts, acts. We believe that we have placed the issue fairly I .. It is our opinion that it is the duty of all good citizens to place great moral and social issues above personal or party considerations. No more important issue than this is before you. We ask you to give it your most careful consideration.
