Leerase military news is that the Cana-
dian soldiers, as far as possible, will
come home from overseas in Battalions
This will be popular bath with the soltli-
ers and their botnetolk as compared
with arriving as a "solitary." Interest
will not abate until the last Tohuuie
Canuck bas reached home.
Comes as if the Conduetoret tes in
Hamburg, Germany, were not far out in
demanding that if they have to surrend-
er their jobs they must be guaranteed a
husband. Wbether a hubby and a street
car ca becompared n om seed is not for us to
say only we believe both lare badly
when their trolley is off. The street car
appears to come first in the demand tbe
husband is in lieu of.
IN St, Marys they have an organiza-
tion known as "The aelp•a Bit Club."
that appears to do things. Seems to us
almost everybody in every town sbould
belong to that society. Things go with
aboom when every person pushes. The
knockers and kickers are the mischief
makers and often give a black eye to
many a worthy cause. Help a bit is a
fine metro.
Iv looks as if the Western Farmers'
Association is out to make a stir up in
the coining Dominion election. There
is going to be a smashing of old policies
and a line up of practical new plans that
will do good. The old hardebell petition
will have a dizzy time of it unless be for-
sakes the idols he has bowed to in the
past. Eastern tillers of the soil have a
program to present that may prove just
as radical.
THERE is to be A sudden cessation of
munition plants in Canada and by • the
end of the year this great industry that
has done snob a rushing business for the
past 4 years will be at an end, we bope
forever. Some men made millions out
of the war and those who have been re-
ceiving abnormal wages will find it
qnite a come -down to get back to former
schedules, especially if they forgot to
put something past for a rainy day
while the coin was coming their way so
freely. In many cases it is not likely
this was done,
CoxscRrrxloN law will be abolished in
Europe if the Peace Conference has its
way. We don't wonder at it after the
turmoil of the pasta or 4 years. Krupp
plant in Germany and other manufactur-
ies of death dealing implements
of war should be wiped off the neap as
wall. Some say the European war
would never have started bad it not
been for the monetary interests in the
Krupp concern. Let us prove that the
Arts of Peace are beyond compare with
those of strife:
A few months ago the leaders among
the Hun militarists were very willing to
claim credit for the war and its continuo
mace but to -day every mother's son says
"It wasn't me it was the other fello,v
wbo is to blame," It was ever thus,
even since the day of Adam and Eve in
the Garden of Eden. How wise it is to
consider well our plans so that there be
little need of recanting or disavowal.
"Be sure vou'r right and then go
ahead" was Davy Crockett's advice and
we think Davy's head was level.
By the record of the U boats during
the war, viz 5,222 British ships, 2,475
sent to the bottom with their crews and
the others with a precarious chance of
making land and to these terrible figures
add 15,000 men lost on tbe toercbant
marine service, end some faint idea
may be arrived at of the scourge tbe
submarines were to the sea. It was no
fake game Germany was playing but a
genuine menace to the Allies. If they
were asked today "What are the wild
waves saying?" the answer might be
"Britannia rules the waves."
FROM the Hun to the Bolsbeviki would
be out of the frying pan into the fire, If
it is Democracy we are after no fellow
who spells bis name as the "Bois." do
should get a look in. It's freedom and
Righteousness this old world wants sot
anarchy, riot and grab, We have had a
big enough share of the latter and
should see that those who wish to incite
to insurrection will be sat on with such
emphasis that they will know it has been
done.

The Branch lees Beyond
Palmerston
The Toronto Daily State of l.lenoinb-
er 3rd, (tits the nail On the head in
dealing with a proposed reduction
of passenger trains en the branch
roads running out of Palmerston as
follows :-
Last Winter quite a few G, T. It.
trains were taken off the branch lines
in Ontario, and itis rumored that it
will be done again this \Vi5tter. Be-
fore it is done it is to be hoped that
the manner of doing le is well consid-
er ed.
One train each way per day consti-
tuted the Winter service last year on
the four lines radiating from Palmer-
ston to Kincardine, Southampton,
Wiarton and Durham. Ae present
there are 2 trains daily each way over
those lines, +old there is a strong feel-
ing that lat year the wrong train was
cancelled,
Take Durham for example, for the
cases of the Kincardine, Southampton,
and Wiartou lines are identical with
that of Durham. The present
G. T. R. train service between Toron-
to and Durham is as follows :-
M. & E., 6,50, 4.15 p. in, Arr. Dur.,
12.05, 0.15 p, m. Ret„ Ivo, Due. 7.05
a, me 3 50 p, m, Arr, Tot', E„ 11.55
a. m., 9.45 p. m. Fr., $3.45, Ret.,
$5.75. 100 miles.
With the present service the return
trip between Toronto attd Durham
can be made either way in one day,
and the same is true as regards any of
the towns on the fear branch lines
that run in different directions from
Pahnerston. But the complaint is
that each year the wrong trains were
taken of those branch Ines -the
morning trains leaving for Toronto
were cancelled. The result was that
business men in all the towns on the
four branch lines beyond Palmerston
oould not make the trip to Toronto
and back in one day. They could not
do it in two days, but had to make it a
three-day journey. A business man
leaving Durham (or any nue of scores
of towns on those four branch lines)
was forced last Winter to leave home
in the afternoon and reach Toronto at
9.45 p. m., too late to do business that
night, nor could he do business early
enough to catch the train at 6.50 next
morning. There being no other train
he had to stay over until the third
morning before he could return home.
Strong protests are being made
against a return of Lhis plan.
Toronto, it is contended, has less
need of a direct daisy return service
with all these towns alum all these
towns have for a direct daily return
service with Toronto, Commercial
travellers do not make the direct trip
from Toronto to one town and back
the sante- day, but are 001 all week
from place to place, It is not
therefore, in the interests of either
the city or the scores of towns served
by the four branch litres beyond Pal-
merston that the wrong train should
be taken off this year as was done
last \Vetter.

his achievement, and North Huron of
its Laurieuite representative. A clear
majority of the electors was cast on
the Conservative side, but for the re-
mainder of this Legislature the con-
stituency must put up with a minor-

North Huron election like Wn
it in
Manitoulin was marked by unusual
conditions. In neither case was the
Hearst Government under attack.
Two other contests are coming on in
the near future -the bye -elections iu
St, Oathariues attd New Ontario.
These should al•Pot'd the people an op-
portuniey of passing upon the Govern-
went's record. If they are contested
they may indicate the real drift; of
public feeling. It behooves all those
who believe in Prohibition, women's
suffrage, the Hydro -Electric system
and generally progressive government
to rally to the support of the Adminis-
tration."
Any open minded person will not be
apt to think the above criticism is
possessed of much fairness, bub per-
haps as much es might be expected
From the nteurow souled News. It
never misses an opportunity of giving
Sir Wilfrid Laurier a dirty slap
whether he deserves it or not and the
inference that on account of Mr.
Fraser being in the minority that
"the constituency must pub up with
him" smacks a trifle of parcelling out
the loaves and fishes from a purely
political sense. We thought the
Hearst Government was elected to do
the square thing with their constitu-
ents no matter which side they were
on,

that the "flu" has not been very bad
rouud here so far. Our crops were
away behind this year making 8 years
running, Wheat 8 to 10 bushels to

short to cue. Late oats were the
best. Barley not much but we are
going to try again. Hari a fine Fall

ing to be a shortage of feed hue fine
weather will help a lot, 2 of my old
friends have passed away who used to
live near Ethel 85 years ago. First
was Jno. Oughton, who formerly liv-
ed on Lot 22, Con, 5, Grey township,
who died last Spring. The other was
Jno, Raynard, who owned Lot11, (Jon.

The latter passed away about; 8 weeks
ago. He lived 11 miles South of
Stoughton, 85 miles straight West
from where we live. Mr. Raynard
went out; and did the chores and on re-
turning to the house complained of
not feeling well and died before night
fell. I am enclosing $2 00 for Tone

TO CHECK CONTAGION.
"Do not cough or sneeze without
a ' handkerchief before the face."
Since the outbreak of influenza, how
often halve doctors, and others inter-
eeted in public health, advised us of
this, and yet how frequently is the
warning disregarded?
The failure to obey this simple
rule is probably responsible for the
spread of much contagion. Take for
example those in the early, unsus-
pected stages of consumption -a sin-
gle, unguarded cough may release
millions of deadly tubercle bacilli;
to be breathed in by''others around.
Until recent years consumption
was considered incurable, but we now
know that it can be cured if taken
in time. The Muskoka Free Hospital
has proved this without a doubt, for
thousands of its patients have been
restored to health and lives of use-
fulness.
One ex -patient of that hospital
writes as follows: "Just eight years
ago this Christmas time I entered
your Sanatorium. I was a very sad
and discouraged girl that Christmas
Eve, but I have been home over
seven years, and I can hardly believe
that I ever had T, B. I look back to
the days I spent ,there, with great
thanks to God and those faithful
workers who understood our'lcases
and needs, and ministered to us so
faithfully."
To carry on this great work the
Muskoka Free Hospital for Con-
sumptives Is again appealing for
help. There 1s much to do. Will you
lend a hand?

It is estimated that about too farm
tractors are now owned and operated by
individual farmers in Lambton county,
Each tractor under good condition plows
an average of 5 acres per day. This
new power has added materially this
season to the area now fully plowed.
Agricultural Department Office in
Lembton county, which was the pioneer
in the tractor plowing enterprise in
Lambton, is selling oft to farmers the 7
tractors it has had in service this Fall.
The Department will not import more,
as the use of tractors by individual
fanners is uow past the experimental
stage and established en a profitable
working basis,
