as may be seen here. The shell is placed in first, fol-
lowed by the propellant in a cartridge case. This

"Devise some means so that if neighbours
must listen in, they can at least repeat
correctly what they heard."
EHIND this half-joking suggestion is
one of the most serious of all causes
of dissatisfaction on the part of rural
telephone subscribers ... the "listening-in"
habit.
If you find someone already on the line,
please make it your rule always to hang up
immediately. Your neighbours will appre-
ciate it... and are more likely
to grant you privacy when
you have occasion to call.

for Our Peace. The meeting opened
with quiet music, Miss Mary Gibson
at the organ. Mrs. H. V. McKenney

Child like. Spirit" using the service

erly of Mlieieeshe, Central Africa: Mrs.

and third parts, the Things that Make
for our Peace, "A Loyihg Heart", in

roe. Mrs, Hart, Mrs. G. Howes, Mrs.
I,es. Douglas, Mrs. G. Greig, Mrs,
Hyde, who gave the address, chose for
her subject "Peace and Prayer". The
speaker reminded us the peace we
have now was won by might of battle
but the peace everlasting must be won
by prayer. The World is still in tu-
mult and full of distruct but, until we
have a ,child-like faith and let peace
and prayer go hand in hand together,
we will not have, permanent peace.
This war has brought inany, to God in
prayer through their loss of loved ones
and God said: "Greater Love Hath No
Man than to Lay down His 'Life for
Mankind." Prayer is our strongest
Ally for Peace.
In keeping with the subject of the

"Spirit of God." The offering was
taken by Miss M. Griffith and Mrs.
Vern Denny, and Mrs. Munroe pro-
nounced the benediction.

BODMIN FARM FORUM
Bodmin Farm Forum met on Mon-
day, March 4th., at the home of Mr.
and Mrs.RichardProcter with 23 in atz,
tendance. The subject under discus-
sion was What about Export Markets
The Forum felt that if we increased
our imports it would help the volume
of exports and that specializing in cer-
tain products and making them cheap-
er would increase the exports. They
felt that credit shouldn't be extended
to foreign buyers and that foreign
competition would be prevented from
ruining the Canadian farmer by having
the goods in care of trained competent
men so it wouldn't spoil before reach-
ing its destination. They felt the re-
moving of subsidies and paying higher
prices would help. The discussion
was led by the president, Gordon Wil-
kinson. The minutes of the last meet-
ing were read and' adopted on motion
of Laura Yuill and Richard Procter,
Charles Coultes suggested that the for-
um do something for Mr. and Mrs.
Sam Pletch whose home was destroy-
ed by fire, It was moved by Charles
Coultes and seconded by Wm. Mc-
Murray that a committee of Gordon
Wilkinson, (convener), James Coultes
Clarence Yuill and Rae Crawford ar-
range a shower for Mr. and Mrs.
Pletch. The next meeting- will be heist
at the home of Mr. and Mrs. William
Kelly with Mrs. Jos. Yuill and James
Coultes as recreational committee.
Progressive euchre was enjoyed with
Mrs. Jesse Wheeler and Mr. Martin
Grasby winning high score. Lunch of
sandwiches and coffee was served.
