Material ambitions and tears for commercial supremacy have dim- med the glow and almost erased the prophesy of the rennalsanee, Much of the beautiful music and tender sentiment of the 17th has been lost to the 20th century, and with It much that is inspirational and comfort giving. Elias Day, of Chicago, one of Am- erica's creat dramatic coaches and authorities of Elizabethan literature, conceived ter• idise of reviving the Elizabethan r ' ic. fie sp -nt ill o years in Enelee ransack,•4 tt,t. dust dimmed mom.stm..es and ;ng. , nt lib- raries, and 1-ror .'it to fiat.,, mzny beautiful t tu •"t had forgotten. r.:1;111,11 t •n „ . •.r i. :.. . incl matter patterned after the modes and spirit of the time, to make a continuous setting, have been wov- en into the present unique programs of the Hampton Court Stingers, so called because of the idea they ex- press.

They sprang from. sires, who, nearly a century ago, were laying the foundation for the most notable and dramatic uprising in the country's history. 1n t s 7 William L MacKenzie, Louis Joseph Papinean and Samuel Lount, rose against Britain in their battle ter responsible eevernment. When the present war broke out their scions hastened to her defences for civ ilization and human liberity. British cables two days later carried another list of gallant Canadians decorated for distinguisehd war service. The list in- cludes hlalor Semuel Kenyon Lem% who received the bar to his previously won Military cress. :Major Lount en- listed at the outbreak of the war as a private, and went overseas with the 76th Battalion, Having secured his commission, he proceeded to France in a reinforcement draft, and was dis- patched to the fighting front, where he was wounded on the Somme. On his recovery he returned to service and has shared in every engagement in which his new battalion took part. At Vimy he won the Military cross and his cap- taincy. At Passchendaele he won his bar and his majority, At present he is in a military huspita], "worn out." '4lajer Lount le the only surviving son of the Late Samuel Leunt, regis- trar at Barrie. In that town his wid- owed mother and sister new live. lie is also a grand nephew of Samuel Lount, one of the outstanding figures in the stirring times of 1837, who Wright have saved his life had he chesen to reveal the names of those who took part with him in that historic rising. Major Lount ;s the third link in the blood tie that hinds tate "rebels" of that uprising to the patriotits of the great war of to -day, Major Charles Bethune Lindsay, D.S O„ son of (3 G. Lindsay, K.C., who wren his decoration rill the fields of France, is the great grandson of William Lyon McKenzie, Major Talbot Papineau, of tine Prin- cess Pats, who won the Military cross, was more than once mentioned in dis- patches, and finally gave his life on the battlefields. He was a grandson of Louis Joseph Papineau. It is to the glory of these young Canadians—descendants of the men of historic yesterday, who fought Britain in the cause for responsible govern- ment—that they were among the first to spring to her defense in the cause et liberity or justice. The names of McKenzie, Papineatt, and Lount loons largely in the history of the past, The names of their young descendants add luster to the new pages being written In the stressful present. —Barrie Examiner, Jack Lount, son ofMrs. Lount, Ham- ilton, is also grand nephew of the late Samuel Lount. i -le is also serving in France, for liberity and justice.

Murray Draper w•he has spent over a year in France had been killed, the report commencing through a mis-understanding. Some time ago Murray wrote to his parents that he was sending; his Military Medal( but after a lung delay he was notified that it had never reached here. Mur- ray asked the Alilitary Department to get another one and send it direct to Clinton. Last week it arrived at Mili- tary headquarters, a letter from the authorities was received by the family stating, that a medal had been received from the late .Murray itraper, and ask- ing what4they would do with it. Word has since been received from Ottawa that 'Murray up to that time was still lighting for his King and Country. The tax rate is going lip this year to 31 mills, in fact the first draft of the estimates made it 34'5, but there will have t, be some reductions mode to brine it down half a mill. "There's a reason" however, and the reason is that expenses are going up. There were two shortages carried over from last year, composed of $1123.00 on the County rate and :750.00 for the Bri- tish and Italian Red Cross, In times of peace our County rate was $Ion to 3t,o0o. This year it is estimated at 33000, and even that may not be enough. Tart•ia this year is estimated to cost 39o() and of this ,lily $300 is to be collected by frontage tax, leaving 36ou to be paid by general tate. These and other smaller items account for the raise. It is pretty high, but if all de- mands trade on the Council are !tet the rate mast go up. Word was received last week by ,Mr. and Mrs. huller, of town, that Sapper Bert Huller was in an American Hos- pital in France suffering from Trench fever but was improving, at the time of writing. Their sun, Pte. Ernest Huller, who was wounded in the hip over a year ago, expects to be sent home to Canada, as he still has to use crutches to move arounce 'I' ENCLOSE TEN PAPERS * IN ONE PARCEL OVERSEAS Toronto, April 2—instructions '• from Ottawa state that, contrary to the regulations that have been enforced, ten newspapers or 'periodicals may be enclosed in one wrapper to a soldier overseas.

HEN you own a Ford you can do away with many articles that are a source of continuous expense to the lean who still drives a horse. For instance, not only your driving -horse and buggy, but the single harness, blankets, whips, currycombs, brushes, horse -shoes, pitch -forks, feed -bilis, etc. In their place you have a speedy, dependable, dignified, roomy Ford Car—complete in itself. It is vastly superior to the narrow, cramped buggy that travels so slowly. And when a Ford is stand ill idle it does not eat three meals a day, and it requires no "looking, after.” A Ford will save you time trouble, and money. It is the utility car for the busy farmer and time, family. THE UNIVERSAL C.AR, rat about - $575 Tov.ring - - $5:15 Compo $770 Sedan - - $970 •535 t tr,,Efia&313 - - ..±'O.y One-tenTruc:i $750 0. 13.
