SMITH Manager Wingham • That earliest slight break in home ties—the morning when THE boy or THE girl first trudg- es off to school! From that day, the changes are rapid. Every year you note them. And, almost before you realize it, there comes the severer sundering of those ties, when John or Mary with a cheery 'Will be home for Ohrist- mas, sure," waves a stout farewell. Both of you are choking back sentiment. And afterwards—how pictures, showing all the rapid transitions, do help.

Egg And Poultry Marketing While the activities of the Live Stock Branch of the Dominion De- partment of Agriculture with regard to the organization of Co-operative Egg and Poultry Marketing Associa- tions have been largely confined to date to the Eastern Provinces of the Dominion, the need and opportunity for work of this kind in the Western Provinces have not been overlooked. From the fact that co-operative marketing of poultry products was samething entirely new. it was thought advisable to thoroughly teat out the practicability of the system before extending it to a wider area, Satisfactory results having been ob- tained in the East arrangements are now being made to extend the work to the Western Provinces, The new field to be organized will receive the benefit of the experience of men who have been associated with the co operative work since its incep- tion.

Benson, who for the past three years has been in charge Of the co-operative organization in Prince Edward Island is being transferred to the Province of Alberta to fill a poei; tion similar to that which he has held in Prince Edward Iceland.

Mr, Bare is nosy in the Western Provinee and will devote the greater part of his time for the next year to directing' operations there, For the present he will confine his activities principally to the Province of Saskatchewan, Mr. R. J. Allen, B. S, A, has been appointed to take immediate charge of the organization of co-operative; Egg and Poultry marketing Aseocia, tions in Manitota. Mr. Allen has had an extensive eitperience not only ill Departmental work but also in the oomniercial field and goes to Mallii.O It' well fitted to Carry on this work ef- fectively. Mr. Wm. Kerr, B. S. A. who was in district representative work in On - tarso for tome time prevtoua to joining the staff of the Live Stock Branch, and who has been associated with Mr. Henson in Prhiee Edward Island slurs ing the paet summer, is now to charge of the wot•k In that province, Both during hie college coh:rse and Yater, during aotit+e work In the field Mr, Kerr hat made a special study of the theory and practice of the ce-operative marketing of farm preclude. tae enters the work in Prince Edward Island, therefore, well equipped to take up the prablenie that have de.' veloped in connection with the ad ' vented nature of the work M that. point, TUE MAN IN TUE TRI3NCII "Can you not hear we, young man in the street ? Is it nothing to you who pass by ? Who down the dint lit ways in thous- ands roam From here I watch you through the driving cleat, Under the evening sky Hurrying home, Home! How that word sounds like a. bell, I wonder can you know as 1 Icno.w well That in this trench Of death and strenoh I stand between your home and hell. I am the roof that shields' you from the weather I ant the gate that keeps the brigand back, When the pillage, fire and murder comes together I am the wall that eaves your home from sack Mani When you Iook upon the girl you prize, Osn you imagine horror in those eyes? You have not seen, you cannot under- atand This trench is England, all this ruined land Is where you wander, street or field, or strand Save for God's grace, and for the guns that rest Upon this dripping mudband of the, west; Our blood has stained your threshold —will you stain Your eoul, give nothing and take all', our gain? Why did I come ? I ask not nor re- pent Something blazed up inside me and I went The khaki fringe is frayed and now a rent Needs men—needs Mien, and I am al. most spent Night and the "ready"—so sleep well, My friend The guns again are going I must stick it to the end. Fourth Tuberculosis Sunday The date for the fourth Tuberculosis Suedes, in the Churches throughout OD ado h Cy been set for Sunday, Noy. 14th, The movement has again been endorsed ny representative bodies of clergymen of all denominations --Ang- lican, Methodists, Catholics, Presby- terjane, Baptists, and Congregation- alists. 2150 ministers throughout the pro- vince will be supplied with an "Outs line of Sermon or Lecture" showing what Tuberculosis does; what it is; what the predisposing causes are; the immediate causes; the commonest early symptoms; how the disease may be treated and cured; how prevented; suggesting ways in which parents, children, churches, working people and every one may help in combating the dread disease, and, lastly, giving particulars of the great work done• by the National Sanitarium Association. Have the ministers of all the churches in this district decided to observe Tuberculosis Sunday? That there is needless suffering and death right in our midst, through the scourge of Consumption, is too well known to need argument. J. G.
