TIM VOICE OF TEMPERANCE Margaret Aitken, writing in the Toronto Telegram, referred to the so- called institutional advertising by the liquor trade, Their ad boys write glowingly of the beauties of Canada or the comfort of going to church or the careers of great Canadians, Then comes the name of the brewery. They were going to feature the career of Sir William Osier. They changed their minds however and dropped the great Canadian doctor when they discovered that in 1906 he had said, "Throw all the beer and spirits into the Irish Channel and the North Sea for a year and people in England would be in- finitely better. It would certainly solve all the problems with which the phil- anthropists, physicians and the poli- ticians have to deal." The breweries have no right to claim any association with beauty or the church or great men`. Their as- sociation is with greed and degrada- tion. Let their ad boys, Elmer Fergus- son and the others write up the story of death on the highway—the noisy orgy of ,a cocktail party—the tragedy of broken homes—then the name of the brewery. That would be honest. All that is the spawn of the brewery. —ADVO_RTISEMENT.

FORTY YEARS AGO After the Holidays , (By Frederick Harold Beach) I steal along the public ways, With shamed head hanging low, To shelter from unfriendly gaze, A store-tied purple bow. I've got to wear the thing you see, For wife presented it to me, I dare not turn my trousers up Though streets be running wet; My gorgeous socks are openwork, Pink cheeks on vilet, I've got to wear the blame things once- My sister gave me them, sweet dunce, I dare no longer blow my nose, Within the public view; My handkerchief of pale old rose Is prettily fringed with blue, I've got to use the thing you know, My love for mother-in-law to skew. I don't mind things that can't be seen, Like orange undershirts, Suspenders or pyjamas green The things that really hurts Is wearing where all men may see, The things the women gave to me. • * TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO Wingharn Town Council get under- way for the work of 1928 at the in- augural meeting at D. o'clock, Tues- day morning, when the newly-elected members and officers made the neces- sary declarations of qualificatioa and of office before the Town Clerk, W.
