I had even heard Tim Murphy say to a customer, "Now, you don't warry a bit about that store bill. One of these days you can come in and we'll get it all straightened just don't worry old boy." Then, as the old car was rounding the corner on Main Street past the Presbyterian Church shed I saw the sign which read NOMINATIONS, and' I knew the answer. The coming election had everybody out working. It was a time to let bygones be by- gones and get down to the serious business of electioneering. R. J.

Boyle I had a most unusual experience the other day in the. village. Now, Ive been going in and out of the place ever since' I was old enough to drive the horse and buggy. There's only a few hundred people in the place, so I guess I know everybody and every- body knows me. Some people are al- ways friendly and others are seldom ever friendly at all. Some nod and some stop to speak. •••••••••,,,, Wanted Immediately! - YOUNG WOMEN 16 to 21 years For Cherry, Strawberry, Raspberry Picking Accommodation in Farm Service Force Camps Supervised by Y.W.C.A.

Wade, read a poem, "A Carol for Ascensiontide" and an article from the Living Mes- sage "No faithful prayer lost." The hymn, "I Need Thee Every Hour" was sung followed by the members and the Lord's Prayer in unison. Roll call was answered with a Bible verse having the word "Glory." Mrs. J. H. King read the scripture lesson, psalm 57. Mrs, F. C. Taylor gave a helpful talk on verse 8 of the 57th psalm, "Awake up my glory, awake psaltery and harp,' myself will awake early.". Life's glory lies in sacrifice. God wants us to be like Christ, to glorify. Him, to sing and give praise in spite of sorrow or tribulation. Mrs. Taylor closed the meeting with prayer and the hostess served a delicious lunch. The annual bale for the Indian Resi- dential school at Ninastoka, Alberta, will be packed at the home of Mrs. Geo.

It made me wonder a bit. He asked me about the wife and family and how the crops were looking and -asked me to pop in and have a chat with him any time I was in the village. Peter Joe Daniels was coming out of the barber shop, He squinted at me a couple of times and then came along with his hand outstretched to shake mine. You could see that I was just one of the finest men in his acquaint- anceship. We chatted about the weath- er and equally important things and lie handed me a cigar and walked on. That was the first time lie had spoken to me, since I sued him for ndt paying for the ten cords of hardwood. Eustace McGuffin the postmaster, was busy shaking hands with every- body. He was just so friendly it would almost make you sick. The little mat- ter' of a cent short on a letter was really nothing. Usually he gets his victim in front of, the wicket and gives them a long harangue about the dig- nity of His Majesty's Mail, as if they were condemned criminals, Not so the other day however, Big Jim Beatty who usually sits he. hind his .desk in the garage and takes in the money, while the helpers work was out pumping gasoline and even wiping windshields.

South opened the ace of hearts, but the singleton in dummy discouraged further activity in that suit. On the bidding South expected that his partner had either the king of spad- es or the ace of diamonds, and there- fore could take one trick. East pro- bably had the other of these two cards in view of his free bid of one spade. Accordingly the only opparent chance of setting the contract was to win two tricks in clubs before the de- clarer could run his diamonds. To this end South led out the ace of clubs and then the three. Put yourself in East's place. The bidding suggested that North ,probably had the queen of clubs (South already had shown two aces), and if South's clubs were doubleton—as seemed quite possible—he would lose the king of clubs on the third round ruff, and be set without further ado. At any rate the ruse worked, East playing the king on the three, When North won with the king of spades, he returned his last club to South's queen for the setting trick, North and South won a clear top score on the play, all others who had bid the game in spades having made the contract.
