THIRTIETH Y,EAlR,
ur Corner,
Th'c ;name' Henry ;Ford is synonym-
ous with Damn Fool. Everybody has.
heard of his former foal utterances,
but hits latest puts him in aclass
,y
himself lfor utter foolishness. In an
interview he suggests that the I3rit-
ish ,sank the Lusitaniki and that the
British will sink a United States ves-
sel to provoke war between Ger-
many and United States, I1 the pas -
session .of a million or so dollars mak-
es a: man so :silly, at Is ao wander
that "money is the root of all evil,"
A igreat deal .of talk is going on
these days about the young men who
for tear of being called on to serve
their Ring andCountry are taking leg
bail for over the creek. We do not
think it rani loss to the country and
certainly no loss, but a gain to the
army .to have them go. They would
have to. be. ;fedand they will eat
twice rays much as a good man and
when the testing time coinge they will
be found like Murphy's hound, "Gun
Shy."
820,00 and costs ;was meted" out to
L, Schilling, a Waterloo township far-
mer, for selling stale eggs for, fresh
ones on Kitchener market, That is
the way to tone up business, Now if
some fearless J. P,, would get alter
the .bad butter maker and ".salt" them
there might be a change to expect
betitevnrent. %s long as the same
market price is paid per pound ir-
respective of quality"the game is ,not
square, By a proper grading system
this wound be remedited to the ad-
vantage of all concerned. The poor
butter maker would ,soon catch on if
the price was nipped,

Rev, Ben Spencer says th;e Ontario
Temperance Act is the sanest, sound-
est and most ,effectivte piece of
prohibition legislation on the statute
books of• any ;state.
Even in the midst of the horrors,
1t looks . as though Germany was
"kidding" the United States when she.
tells them to paint their` vessels _like
a barber'spole. Thus,—I 11111,
Arrangements have been made to
receive in Exeter teach morning a 101)
ward telegram of the war news, and
same ,will be posted each day i front
of yr S. 1-Iowe 's Drug Store, 'Ihe

The first Gar of coal arriving heir
in several weeks came to Mr. li.R,owe
Tuesday. Many people are complete-
ly out ea the commodity and the sit-
uatia- was fast becoming serious, atilt,
th i s w II' relieve the situation far at
least -a time. Mr. Mantle also •ex-
peces coal very soon.
The mail connections are not very
good just now, and wewould like
our correspondents toi get their bud-

The Advocate for insertion that same
we'ek;. 'Remember this, please, as
"news' is not"news" when it be-
comes ;a week or two late.
In e e
t r sC in war matterduring the
week has been centred on the iser,
man's murderous U boat` activity, and
its probable effect on United States,
After reaching a maximum of about
28,000 tons of shipping destroyed in
a day of allied and neutral ships com-
bined theamount has steadily decreas
ed and it is claimed'; the British are
getting their measure and many are
being captured, The worse is thought
to be over. Although women and
children, and even IT,ni.ted State's cit--
is:ens have been slaughtered President
Wilson has r
not yet declared war on
the arch enemy,
Holland 'Switzerland and the Scan-
dinavian countries have not Callen in
line with 'United States in breaking
off, diplomatic 'relations' with ,er-
many, claiming that conditions with
them are very different tram those
in Lusted States, The point is they
live nearer• the mad wall.;
In the meantime [the war on land is
in favor at the allies- and it its canfid-.
eptly expected' that the allies can
make great advances when the .:pring
arrives The British made steady
ant important advanees near Ba,paume
last week.

ing to them, as leaders of the two

THE 'HUN.
For Ring and Country that we'`a;e
Now, threatened by the German stun,
We place an .oath in Heaven above
That we shall put hint - on "t the run,
The sons of Britain all mace°
To meet the Hun in fearless fight
And with Allies we all 'ornbine
To pen the Hun beyond the Rhine,
Flow dare he know for peace cry out
Whist gorged with booty of cur slain?
How dare he now for mercy shout
When justice calls far deeper painr
Quite unprovoked he launched the war
To satisfy his (greed and lust.
And having forced the, doors ajar
He now shall fall, and bite the dust.
No ear to hear his wretched ery,
Allies aa -e deaf to his appeal,
Ana hard as adamant, the sky,
Till vengeance doth This judgment heal
His miseries are all his own,
His crimes rebounding on his head,
With vengeance from a higher throne,
Now walking 'mid his wretched dead.
