U Etbvert feet ell Mail Editions HPer Yale '4 An Organization Needed. We urge that an reties organiza- tion should be formed here for the purpose of watching for just such con- tingencies as men returning from the front. Let us remember thee* men enlisted to give their lives, if need be, for their country, and they are worthy of our beet respect. We have room for business, room for pleasure, but for the men who bays offered their lives in our defence -well, indifference and tbougbtleoanees. Time is No Excuse. As citizens we cannot excuse our- selves. Proper organization would base provided against the ez^use that *owe will make, that they do not know when men are returning. We have, we trust, many mote men to return and the 'cut that can be dune I• to see that a proper organization is perfected so that not ONE more hero will return without a proper welcome from the people of Ooderich. Any litae thing that we can do to make the homecoming an impressive one should be done. Let us see to it in the futuie that no such cases occur as mentioned ale vs,, for it is a standing disgrace to the town. Will some of our citizeeus get together and form an 'Association as.uggested ? The whole- hearted support of The Signal will he given to amp movement towards this end. Sneak Thieves. The garden thieves have commenced their activities and a number of gar- dens have suffered. Beets. cabbage, and other garden produce have been stolen. This kind of mean theft is one that will be sternly dealt with by the authorities and any sufferers should immediately report their loss to the police. Motorists Beware. A few evenings ago I noticed the chief busy stopping motorists who did not display' • hent and ordering them to Immediately light up. This is a step the right direction. Another needed reform is that rigs and other vehicles Mhnuld be forced to show a light. Many a person with bad eyesight bas had narrow escapee from being knocked down by rigs, especially on a Saturday evening. coming from the glare of the shop lights on to the crossings it is bard to discern a rig coming on to the Square, but if • light were shown it wuuld do away wi tis this unnecessary danger. The number of motors that are now on the streets is another reason for the horse vehicles showing • sight. WALKER ROUND.. Save the Children. Mothers who keep a box of Baby's Own Tablets in the house may feel that the lives of their little ones are reasonably safe during the hot weath- er. Stomach troubles, cholera infan- tum and diarrhoea carry off thousands of little ones every summer, in moat cases because the mother does not have a safe medicine at hand to give promptly. Baby's Own Tablets cure these troubles, or if given occasionally to the well child will prevent their coming on. The Tablets are guaran- teed by a Government analyst to be absolutely harmless even to the new- born babe. They are especially good In summer because they regulate the bowels and keep the stomach aweet and pure. They are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 26 (tents a box from The Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. When a man loses faith in humanity be hits himself a eolar•plexus h1nw.

"Your honor," informed the Chicago policeman, an he pointed to the prisoner, "he refused to rise while the band played 'The Star Spangled Ban- ner.' "1 did not recognize the tune," ex- ' claimed the culprit hastily. i "Now, my dear man," said the judge, sympathetically. "let me whistle it for you so that hereafter you may dis- tinguish it." The judge whistled the melody and the prisoner listened intently. When his honor had finished the defendant exclaimed glnerously : i "Your honor, it the band bad played the tune as you whistled it I would not be here today." "Discharged !" interrupted the well - pleased judge. "But the band would," cdncluded the man in an undertone Mss be hastily retired from the court room. Strictly Correct.
