Worthwhile Effort

attractive appearance. The articles
are interestig and well written and it
is a credit to those who were respon

shows just what can be accomplished
in a country office. The society is to
be congratulated on its very worth
while effort.

bag of flour from the Dominion Store
to Mr. George Lott's home on the;
”B" line. The distance is, about one
mile flat.
The incident happened over a little
joke, Elgin was carrying a bag of
something or other across the street
and Mr, Lott said if you carry "a bag-
of flour to my home 1’11 take it. Some
jocular remarks followed this and in
the end Elgin picked up a bag of
flour and headed for the “B” line. He
carrried right along in his stride .but
when he came to the hill after he
crossed the McKenzie bridge those
who were watching him thought now
he will fail. But not Elgin,' he just
increased his pace as if he were on
his way home up John Street to sat
isfy the inner man and, much to the
surprise of all, delivered his load fresh
as can be and ready for more.
It is said that he gets his great
strength from his daily dozen walking
