OCTOBER EGGS
FROM LATE-MAY CHICKS
Cockerels 4*4 to 5 Lbs. at Thanksgiving — or 6 Lbs, and; Over
for the Christmas Trade
R growth and early maturity are even more important in late ’
, May and June chicks than in earlier chicks, If you happen to
buy a slow-growing strain of chicks in late May or June, you don't
have eggs to sell till the high-price season is over. But quick-grow
ing stock gives you a chance to make some real money.
Bray s May-hatched: “Xtra-Profit” pullets, if well reared, will give
you high-priced eggs to sell in October, November and December
-—and keep right on laying through the coldest winter months, They
have a countrywide reputation for wonderful liveability and extra
rapid growth. When well handled, they usually commence'to lay at
5 months old (or younger) and often, reach 50% production before
they are 6 months old. We can back up these statements with actual
evidence from every province in Eastern Canada.
It’s the same with .cockerels as with pallets. Bray’s “Xtra-Profit”
'cockerels, when well fed, usually gain a pound a month and some
times more. You can finish May-hatched “Xtra-Profit” cockerels
at the popular 4% to 5 lb, weights, by Thanksgiving—or hold them
to make 6-lb. roasters (or better) for the Christmas trade. There’s
money in chickens when you get growth like that—and we have
ample evidence to show that our customers are getting it.
Our prices are down to rock bottom. Do’t b-uy until you see our
end-of-the-season price list, We can supply1 “Xtra-Profit” day-old.
chicks, day-old pullets and started pullets for immediate delivery—
and cockerels, if ordered in advance. Choice of 7 breeds, Standard
Grade stock in the same 7 breeds at still lower prices. Write

In commencing his series of studies
in the Epistles of Paul to the Rom
ans, Sunday morning, Rev. E. M.
Loney stated that there were at least
three Churches in the city of Rome
at the time the Epistle was written,
and made reference to the 16th chap
ter, verses 5, 14, 15, in proof of the
statement. Those who say that the
Church of Rome was the first Church
in existence and the Mother Church,
need only to read the Acts of the
Apostles to discover that the Church
at Jerusalem was both the Mother
Church and the first Church in exist
ence. Christ commissioned the Apost
les to begin at Jerusalem and from
that centre to work out through Jud
ea, Samaria and then to the utter
most parts of the earth. In response
to that commission Churches were es
tablished in Jerusalem, Caesarea,
Damascus, Antioch, Judea, Samaria,
Galatia, Macedonia, Achaia and the
probability is that the Churches at
Rome were established still later on.
The statement of Jerome that Peter
went to Rome in the 2nd year of
Claudius, A.D. 42 to confute Simon
Magus and that he was bishop of the
Church of Rome for 25 years is not
only unsupported by historical evi
dence. but there is a great deal of
strong evidence against it. Petei- is
mentioned in the New Testament four
times after A.D. 42 and in every in
stance he was a great distance away
from Rome. One of these times he
was at Antioch and was rebuked
sternly by Paul because of a serious
mistake he had made, .Gal. 2: 11-13.
There is not mention of Peter in the
salutations in the 16th chapter. Had
he been bishop,at Rome Paul cer
tainly would not have ignored him in
these greetings, and in fact Paul
would have had no desire at all to
preach the Gospel in Rome also, as
it was his invariable rule not to build
on another Apostle’s foundation, Five
prison Epistles were written from
Rome by Paul and in none of these
is Peter mentioned. If Peter had been
bishop of Rome with all the authority
claimed for him it would seem most
strange why he did not secure the re
lease from prison of his fellow-apos
tle. The Epistle was originally writ
ten in the Greek language as was the
whole of the -New Testament. Greek
was the universal language then.
Mr. Loney said that no language
should be regarded as a sacred lan
guage. When the Holy Spirit was
given on the day of Pentecost every
one in the large gathering from sev
eral countries heard the Gospel in the
language of the country in which he
was born. Paul in writing to the
Church at Corinth said that he would
rather speak five words with the un
edrstanding that, he might instruct
others than ten thousand words
an unfamiliar tongue.
“Tough Baby”
Four well-known makes
of tubes were cut in half
To each half we spliced
half of a Goodrich Gold &
Black Tube. These spliced
tubes were putin tires on
test care and caused to go
flat at 40 miles per hour
On removing tubes, the
Gold & Black sections
were unharmed; the other
Sections ripped to shreds
• You know what a puncture
ordinarily does to an inner tube.
First, you get that tell-tale hiss-
then a “flat” and you’re on the
rim, You stop as quickly as you
can, but by the-time you come to
a complete standstill the tube is
likely to be badly chewed and
shredded.
That’s why you need the new
Goodrich Gold and Black Tube in
all your tires, It’s not only built of
tougher black rubber throughout,
but it’s also reinforced with an ex
tra tough shield of special golden
rubber to resist rim chafing and
tearing. Come in today and see

Mr, McPherson, of the Department

He told of the condition of our main

sure the department were interested
and would bear part of the cost.
Mr. Herbert Campbell, past pres
ident of the Chamber of Commerce,
stated that during the last eight years
the Chamber of Commerce had dis
persed $8,000. Their biggest effort
had been the X-Ray purchased for

that this year will be a banner year.
Capt. Boyd was introduced to the

Faithful Horse
On Monday the mare which does
duty on John Kelley’s milk route gave
birth to a colt. There is nothing un
usual in this happening but what
makes it news is the fact that the
horse was at work as usual on the
route on Monday when the pangs of
birth came upon it. It was driven to
Dr. Ford’s stable where the colt was
delivered almost immediately upon ar
rival. The customers did not go short
of milk, however, as another horse
was called into service and the de
livery of milk was completed.
Fine Time at Golf Course
It appears that the Alps Golf Club
is in for its most successful season.
On Wednesday afternoon last week
the attendance at the course was sim
ilar to that at midsummer. Follow
ing the play, a pot luck supper was
served by the ladies at which sixty
were present.' Mr. W. H. French was
called on by the President, Herbert
'Campbell, to propose a toast to the
King, after which all sang the Na
tional Anthem. The reply to this
toast was given by Mr. Roy Thomp
son, of Teeswater. Coronation Day
was certainly a banner one for the
club.
Miss R, Lewis, the vice-president in
the ehair. Following the opening
hymn, Miss Deedles of the City Mis

Mrs. J. Genmill led in prayer. The
yearly reports of the various depart

Union had a very successful year.
Miss Duff, field secretary of the W.
C.T.U. was present and gave a most
interesting, scientific temperance talk,
Misses Carter and Phippen sang a
duet that was greatly enjoyed- The
election of officers will be held at the
next regular meeting. The meeting
closed with prayer by Mrs. John An

A Violinist of Promise4
Nora Gibson, violinist, seventeen
year-old daughter of Mrs. T. A, Gib
son, of Toronto, played in Eaton
Auditorium recently. The Evening
Telegram, speaking of her efforts said
“There is a flash of intuition in her
bow that startled the listener, Her
tone had a quality of poignancy that
provoked a hundred fancies as beauti
ful as they were unexpected. She is
an artist of the highest promise,” The
young artist is a daughter of Mrs.
T. A. Gibson, formerly Miss Lilia
Sherk (daughter of Urias Sherk) old
residents of Wingham. Mrs. Gibson
Was at one time organist of St, And
rew’s Presbyterian.■' Church -and in
that capacity will be remembered by
many friends who, no doubt, will be
pleased to hear of the accomplish-
menst of her second oldest daughter.

At the last session of the Legislature the
law respecting the speed of motor vehicles was
amended. The effect of this amendment is to
increase the maximum permissible speed at
which motor vehicles may be operated. The
amendment in question becomes effective on
the 24th of May.
Motorists are warned that the new speed
limits are the positive maximum speeds at
which motor vehicles may he operated under
the most ideal conditions. While the maximum
speeds are to be 30 miles per hour in cities,

severe penalties are provided, to operate at any
