PHIL OSIFER OF LAZY MEADOWS By Harry J. Boyle It was hot down here last week. In fact it was the warmest session that we've had so far this year. Summer of course has pretty well arrived. In the matter of two or three weeks the trees have blossomed out with a full display of foliage and the lilac trees are bursting into full bloom. Driving along the concession with the team I noticed several women picking big bouquets of lilacs for dinner tables I guess or else for the big bowls on the parlor table or the .organ or piano. The heat was quite noticeable so I pulled the team up for a stop in the shade of the row'of big trees along the road in front of the school-house. A bumble bee cruised along like a 'bomb- er over the dandelions scattered like golden dollars amongst the roadside grass. A pair 'of -robins were playing tag' in a maple tree and a bushy-tailed squirrel jumped from a tree to the ridge-board of the school and then scampered down the roof and dis- appeared into the eaves. I could hear the lazy droning sound of the children reciting or reading something. It was interrupted period- ically by the teacher's voice. This was our concession school house, looking just as tired with shabby paint as the voices of the children sounded. Sev-• eral of the basement windows were gone and one of the upstairs windows *as covered with a sheet of cardboard. A fringe of cutout flowers straggled along several of the windows, a monu- ment to the brave teacher who was trying to 'bring a spot of color into the drab surroundings. I began looking the place over with critical eye. The fences were leaning this way and that. The trees and shrubs • around the place, filling out with leaves so as to give a true repre- sentation of their shaggy appearances, certifying that none seemed to care. The front steps of the school house WITH OUR WEEKLY NEWSPAPER REPRESENTATIVES OVERSEAS and more !Cigarettes over, that alone would make your trip Worthwhile. You would have done a real service to the men of the Canadian forces here, Urge them to send more and to send them regularly. Every man over here will thank you." Well, that is the story. You have it and the rest is up to. you. If you have any relative or friend overseas in whom yeti are even casually interested make arrangements' now to do some- thing abciut augmenting his smoke supply, Remember 'MORE cigarettes and REGULARLY. One chap from Kelowna told Inc that his greatest thrill at Christmas was to receive two parcels of cigar- ettes from people whom he knew only casually. He said lie had appreciated the parcels from his close friends, but when lie found that he had been re- membered by only casual acquaint- ances, it was a real thrill. He felt that the people "back home" had not quite forgotten him after three Tears' absence, But why 'wait for Christmas? You can give these chaps a boost in morale any day by just seeing that they re- ceive their cigarettes regularly. It will be appreciated and will bring you dividends through the satisfaction of giving pleasure to someone else, In passing, it should be said that the British Columbia cigarette system is the envy of the men from the other provinces, Apparently this is working out eXtremely well and Meets the ap- proval of all the 13,C, men who par- ticipate in it, To the people of British Columbia, would suggest that they investigate this system of sending cigarettes overseas. Oat final word-send' more eigars ends mid semi them teguldrly, • were sagging a little. A dead branch *from a !beech lay sprawling in a corn- er, dragged out of the way by the children so as to not interfere with their ball diamond, Worn spots in- dicated bases. They were a little broader than the paths for running, That school certainly didn't indicate much pride in our township in educe- tier', I felt a little ashamed of myself, As a matter of fact I was at a school meeting one night, tendering on the wood when the teacher put up a strong case for fixing up the grounds, The trustees listened but said it would cost too much money, The (inside of the' school, as I well know know doesn't look much better than the outside. The desks are backed and carved and the floor is warped. In the wintertime it's closed up like a tight box to keep out the cold and the heat dries everything up, without a trace of humidity. In the summer- time the flies hold' conventions in school hours. A battered old teach- ers desk wobbles on three good legs and a bookcase built by a local barn carpenter fifty years ago holds a flock of dog-eared old books. I wonder if it isn't possible that we never liked school partly because our surroundings were so unattractive. We froze fin winter, roasted, in summer- time and hated the feel of dry, chalk:" filled and the sound of chalk scraping on a blackboard, There was very little to fire a child's imagination in that schoolhouse . . 'and the trouble is, that having come through that experi- ence a lot of us are careless enough to let it be perpetuated so that our children have to come through the same experience, Over 30 ladies have enrolled for the Red. Cross Home Nursing course which will be in charge of Mrs. Stuart, Mrs, Ward and Mrs, Wilson, , Mr. and Mrs. Wilson Woods and children, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Dough- erty and Gwen of Guelph, Mr. and Mrs. Arnold Barbour of Fergus, were week-end guests of Mrs. R. J. Woods. Mrs, McFarlane of Lucknow, spent the week with her daughter, Mrs. McPherson. Mrs. D.

Miller, attended the District Annual meeting of the Women's Institute, at Dungannon, on Thursday. Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Miller, Allen Miller, Mrs, Wilson and Terry, were visitors at Stratford on Friday. Mrs. Helm, Mr. and Mrs. Lorne Woods and Donna, Mrs. R. Woods, Miss Johnston and Miss M. C. Ruther- ford, attended the Webster picnic at Harbor Park, Goderich;. on Saturday. Mr. and Mrs. Victor Taylor and family, and Mrs. Elliott of Brucefield, were recent guests of Mr.. and ,Mrs, R. Woods and Mr. and Mrs. Lorne Woods. All the ladies are urged to attend the Red Cross quilting on Friday afternoon. Miss Dorothy Webb is home from Toronto,- Mrs. James. Lyons is a patient in the Wingham Hospital. Her many friends hope for a speedy recovery. Miss Ruth, Ramage, ,who has been attending the Normal School, Toronto, ,is home for the vacation. School Area Meeting A number of the residents of the various school sections of the south end of the township of East Wawa- nosh, met in the Westfield school on' Monday evening, where Inspector Kin- kead addressed a large gathering on "The Township School Area in On- tario." Mr, Raymond Redmond was chairman forthe evening' and intro- duced• the speaker, who gave a very interesting outline on the questions leading up 'to the larger School Area. After the address interesting discus- sions took place, At the conclusion of the evening the National Anthem was sung and lunch was served. SALEM Mr. and Mrs. Elliott Cranch, daugh- ter Miss Vivian •Cranch and their friend, Mrs. Simpson of Rochester, N. Y., spent the week-end with Mr., Edwin Palmer and other friends. Mr. and Mrs, Percy Bridgeman and daughter Shirley, Mr, Ken Bridgeman, Miss Edythe Weir and Mr. Lloyd Weir, all of *onto, visited over Sun- day with Mr. and Mrs, W. E. Weir.

John 'Gowdy and Mr. Gowdy, in (Continued from page one) would soon be over and that our dear ones would soon return to us. At a dinner held in his honour at the noon hour and at this gathering, he said, I feel the end will not be long delayed now but of course I am not holding out the hope that the war will be over tomorrow or the day after. The Lions Park at .Seaforth has proved an ideal setting for this yearly outing and the town was in gala mood festooned with flags and bunting, The proceedings got under way at 11. o'clock in the morning when Short- horn breeders' of Huron and Perth held their field day and judging com- petition. Following the luncheon at which all the Reeves and Mayors of the county 'Were present the vice-regal party went to the Lions Park, when 100 soldiers from Camp Ipperwash - acted as a guard of honour. They were inspected by the Governor-General and martial music was played by the band of the Royal Canadian Regiment, London, A uhoir of school children sang "0 Canada" and "The Maple Leaf For- ever." The Governor-General in his address said how deeply indebted we are for the way the farmers have overcome their difficulties in the war, Short- ages of labour and machinery laid a heavy burden on the shoulders of the farmers, but they have come through these troubles with enterprse and de- termination to play their part in the war effort despite these obstacles. We must be more vigilant then ever he said, we must go on to the bitter end, so that our children and their children may reap the full benefit of our effort. Mr. Elston Cardiff, M.P., for North Huron, thanked the Earl for his splendid address. The other speaker for the afternoon ;was R. S. Kennedy, Montreal, editor- in-chief of the Family Herald and Weekly Star. He urged the farmers to co-operate in building a new richer farm life for the future. Most farmers, he said, do not realize the advantages attending a life in a rural area. If all farmers in the county belonged to the Federation and took an active interest in, this would a better and more pros- perous county in a few years‘ There were exhibits of labour-saving devices, livestock, military display, races and games, exhibits by the de- partments of agriculture etc. The vast throng took keen interest in all the program as did the vice-Regal party. Seated on the platform, in addition to Their Excellencies and Mr. Ken- nedy, were Mr. and Mrs. Harry Sturdy, Mrs. W. L. Whyte, Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Golding, Mr. 'and. Mrs. Elston Cardiff, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Watson, Mr. and Mrs. Archie Morgan, Miss Vera Grenfell, lady-in-waiting; Major Mark Clayton, aide-de-camp; Col. and Mrs. W. M. King, Rev. and Mrs. R, P. D. Hurford, Dr. and Mrs. Hobbs Taylor, and Mr. and Mrs. John Hanna. • SMOKES STILL SCARCE (By R. P. MacLean) If you want to do something for your men overseas send them cigar- ettes and more cigarettes and still more cigarettes. Every Canadian in the army, navy or air force whom we met said the same thing. Cigarettes in England cost two Shil- lings and fourpence for twenty of the poorest brands, Something better than fifty cents, And they are poor things now. A man living on army pay simply cannot afford to buy them• and consequently the cry is for more and more cigarettes sent from home. No man tan receive too many for, their are dozens who receive none at all or very few. Some of his friends are always short. Apparently most of the men refuse. to sell them to their friends, but they will loan some Until the friend's parcel arrives, But that means that the one chap must take a portion of his newly-arrived and precious stock and repay his debt and soon he is short again, This seems to be particularly true among men who just go over. Some time elapses before the first parcel arrives and by that time they are hope. lessly in debt to their friends for cigarettes, The suggestion is that as soon as a matt starts for overseas the cigarettes should start to flow after hint immediately, Most of the men talked to felt that they received almost •all the cigar- (Mts. sent to them. Some did not agree, it is true, but the majority were quite content that the smokes tonic through With eonsistetft regularity;.
