"MEN shall iearn war no more," is on record but its realization will only be brought about wben the brotberhood of man is recogniz-d, ahem grafters can't make millions out of armaments and when Nations will forgive and forget. Greed for territory and reaching after acreage belonging to another ; a "chip - on -the -shoulder" of a bully and insolence iustead of heart to•beart talks over le- ternational squabbles are often material to start a war•fire and once set agoing the problem Is to stop it. CANucK judging representatives at the big stock Sbow held is Chicago gave a good account of themselves and got in on the winning without much trouble. We can produce the goods in the keen- est competition. The fellows who are always crying about Canadian inability to hold tbeir own should begin to take nerve food and get rid of their doubts and fears, as they do our land and its husky inhabitants gross injustice when they insinuate that all our music must be played on the and violin. Brace up, get a plaster for your spine and tell the world we are winners. A school with practical demonstra- tions should be established to instruct the "mac of the house" in the art of carving, If alt specimens of the poultry family were "built" after the same pattern tbere might not be the same need but our experience in carving is tbat in no two are the joints located in the same geograpbical position and anyhow with a table full of hungry and most observant guests is no time. to go on voyages of discovery la the study of anatomy. By all means let us have a school, call it by any name you wish. WE wonder if the great outbursts of loyalty to Canada and patriotism to the British Empire that have been slopping over by many candidates and their de- puty apouters during the past few months will continue or now that the Election is over and no more offices to wiu will these delightful sentiments be allowed to droop and die ? That a good share of it was only "fizz" is apparent from the fact that these declarations were not on the program of many until an Election was in eight. What is needed is constancy. Canada is a land good enough to be cheered for and boosted 365 days in the year and the old flag deserves our best laudations all ibe the time as it is wor- thy of our greatest efforts and warmest praise. Tint Department of Higbways has ordered the removal of advertising signs erected on certain of the provincial highways. This will particularly affect a cbain of clothing stores with head- quarters in London, who have erected signs valued at $145 at frequent inter- vals, The department will control all signs between the fence and those situ- ated a quarter of a mile back from them. in order to maintain the natural appear- ance of trees nailing of advertisements on them will be forbidden, Ripley Presbyterian Church After 48 years of separation Huron and Kerte Presbyterian Churches, Rip- ley have decided to worship under one roof again, Tide decision was reach. ed .on November 21st at separate meetings of the congregations, held under supervision of Presbytery Com- I tnieeion cnmposed of Rev, W. Bradley, Teeswater ; Bev, ', Over• end and I,' A. Mackenzie, laymab, .Kincardine.

Rev. B. D. Mc- Lean is pastor of Huron clturoh and Rev, G. A.. Gilcitors of Knox church. To this provision the mluisters have agreed.

A youthful bandit, about -22 years of age, entered a drug store at the corner of Gei'tie and Notre Dame avenue, Winnipeg, at 6 o'clock Thuile day evening, shot the pro peietor and his assistant, cleaned nut the till and escaped. J. Wilder, the proprietor was shot in the acro anti hip, and A. Davie, the aseiatant, was shot in the abdomen and serious- ly wounded. Both are in the hospital. No "hands up" comtnand was given by 'he assailant, who simply entered the store and started firing at the two victims. It is not known how much mnney waa taken. So numerous and bold are the wolves becoming at MacLennan, just East of the Sault, -that stock-raieera there are asking relief. During the past 4 weeks about 100 sheep have been killed in a very limited area by wolves which have appeared since the bear epidetnic subsided.. It is estim- ated that at least 400 bears were killed within the city and its immediate vicinity during the Fall. Reports are craning in from the Algoma Central Railway that the wolves are doing great damage there, particularly at Mile 95, tvbere they are destroying the beaver and deer. The settlers are de. mending that a larger bounty be placed on the wolves, $25 not being sufficiently large to induce expert trappers to spend time in an endeavor to exterminate them. "Pere" an English bulldog, owned by Jack Campbell, Windsor, grappled with a daylight woman bulgier, who was discovered by Mrs Campbell, tak- ing wearing apparel from a room at ler hotue late Wednesday afternoon recently. The dog sprang at the woman, grasping her by the throat incl teasing open the flash, drawing blood. Mrs. Campbell called off the dog and the woman escaped through the front dont', She has tint been seen .since. Mrs. Campbell was un- aware that the burglar was in her hnme until aha walked into the room which was being ransacked. She gave a low cry and the woman turned to fire. The dog then came into the rotes), sprang at the stranger's throat, and would not release hie bold until Mre. Campbell ordered him to "Lie down."` Electric siren alarms, to be used in case of attempted robbery or burgle' y, will he attached to the 110 branches of the Bank of Hamilton. A test of a siren was made at a branch in Toro)) to, it being attached to the wall on the outside of the bank building two storeys up. The interior of the bank is wired, with many electric buttons hidden in secret places, so that if a robbery is attempted the staff push their buttons and alarm Automat- ically shrieksa warning on the street. The teat brought policemen to the brink on the jump. However, the local police suggest that if the railings. in the bank were built sip to the ceil- ings this would be as good protection as bank Mame, as in the bank hold- ups bandits have hurdled the rail- ings which eeparated the bank staffs fu non the public. It is said that the electric siren alarm may be ittetalled in every bank in Canada.
