ELECTION SUSPENSION In another four weeks or so elec­ tion time will be here again and it will be the last municipal election for two years or until the war is over. Two reasons are given by Hon. Eric Cross, Minister of Municipal Af­ fairs, in explanation of the suspension of all municipal elections in Ontario after Jan. 1, 1940. He says it will ef­ fect important savings and also do away with needless controversy. This doing away with elections is not a democratic principle and we feel that the people who pay the election tills should have the say if there is an election or’ not. Wingham most likely will not have an election this year as the people ap­ pear well satisfied with the work done by the Council. It has .been the prac­ tice, more or less, in this district that councils stand two1 years at least if they carry on satisfactorily, in many •cases much longer. But this is the people’s wish. In the cities they ap­ pear to have elections every year, very few acclamations being given and we suppose to curb these office seeking ■city folk the people of the country BACKACHE, HEADACHE Hamilton, om. — Mrs. Earl Johnston of 150^ Locke St. N. says: “I suffered from headaches and pains across my back and through my side periodically, and I was so weak and nervous. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription helped to those awful pains and headaches and to build* me up eo that I felt just fine.” Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prcacription is that of a famous phy­ sician unusually experienced in the treatment of women’s peculiar ailments.

'#•1,<4 districts will have to submit to this dictation. * * * $ DRIVE SANELY A man in this district recently paid a fine for operating a car without due care or attention. It appears that re­ gardless of the signs poster along the road warning that men were at work ahead, he drove carelessly and at high speed over the section of the road un­ der repair. Too many drivers pay little or no attention to signs. Ordinary courtesy is all that should be necessary to have motorists slow down when men are at work on the highway. Other signs that little or 'no attention is paid to are certain stop signs. There are a few here that are disregarded by many people, A check-up on these drivers is in order before a major ac­ cident Occurs, In the hurry and bustle of getting from one place to another (sometimes no place in particular) too many signs posted by authorities are disre­ garded. With winter around the cor­ ner, driving conditions will not be as good as in the summer time so extra care should be taken in fog, or slip­ pery or wet roads and in many other instances. -k -I* v GETTING ON WITH THE WAR We hav.e heard the phrase “let us get on with the war” many times of late. People appear to be over an-- xious that bigger battle should be fought and they appear to feel this would be the means to a.shorter war. We have all heard the phrase “war of nerves.” That was a Hitler way of doing things and now Stalin is using this method. Britain also is using it, blockading supplies to Germany and repeatedly spreading propaganda to the German nation. By this means the British will wear down the resis­ tance of the Nazi followers and thus win the war with a minimum loss of manpower. Hold tight all ye impatient folks. Your nerves will be tested many tim­ es before this conflict is over. Britain can afford to fight a waiting war, put­ ting most of her effort into the block­ ade. Germany will be the less strong i every minute that passes. We must be calm, we must not be too critical, we must steel our nerves for a long conflict, we must trust those in com­ mand. | NEWS of the | DISTRICT | •HUiiiiiiiMmimiHfiiiiiitiiiiiititiiiiimniaitiiiitiiiiiHmtun* 100th Battery Member Injured C.
