MAKI, up your mind to give Brussels Red Cross Society agood boost on Labor Day at the celebration announced for that day. While the nominal charge to Victoria Park to witness the sports is placed at 25 cents for adults and 15 cents for children much larger contributions are asked and hoped for in the maioten. aoce of this worthy cause. $2,000 is set as the standard for the day. PROPOSED amalgamation of the Royal Bank and the Bank of Hamilton receiv- ed its quietus for the meantime by the Minister of Finance deelioing to give bis consent under the Bank Act and the parties interested have beau so notified. He says both are strong institutions and it would not be in the public iuterest to have them unite as they are now com- petative factors in the Canadian banking field. We think the decision is a good one as it relates to the welfare of the people. CANADA owes much to the Motherland for past care and attentiou and it is most befitting ane commendable that in the time of stress the loyal colonial sons are so freely offering the hearty support so much needed and so highly or ized. Some have hinted at the necessity of conscription but we believe with a prop- er presentation of the claims there are thousands in this Dominion who are ready and willing to stand by the dear old fiag and see that it is not trailed in the dust. It flies as a great ensign and we'll never let the old flag fall. Iv you run an automobile don't be a crazy Ike speeding up on all occasions to the danger of your passengers, the auto and the people you may meet, Numerous complaints are made of chauffeurs exceeding the speed limit while passing through towns, although Brussels has little to complain of in this respect. A mac requires to exercise judgment and common sense in hand- ling a car the same as be does in any- thing else and the danger is still patent even it he supposes be is a past master at the wheel, An ounce of prevention is often worth a pound of cure both to the car and its occupants. PARENTS and guardians should be on the alert to see that the school pupils in their respective homes get a good start on the opening of the Fall term. In the forming up of new classes and the tag. ing on of fresh studies it is very essentila that the boys and girls should be in their places when school re -opens. A few weeks delay may have a hurtful influence on the work of the term and place at a disadvantage those who were not on hand at the commencement. Where a new teacher takes command it is even more necessary than where no change has taken place. The home can do much to support the teacher by showing a spirit of hearty co-operation in this matter. WHAT about that correspondence you were going to took after so regularly ?

Don't say you are not a believer in advertising for every time you dress the window, put a card in it or hang out your goods you do that very thing. Patrons read of your bargains before they leave home, when the advertise- ment is placed in a newspaper, and prob- ably come direct to your place of busi- ness on arrival in town, A large ie. crease in the drawing of trade from dis tances can be traced to the judicious use of printer's ink. Now is the season of the year when customers are thinking of Fall and Winter goods and the shrewd merchant is taking advantage of the opportunity of stating his case, It will pay the public to read the advertisements and then lest them. Do you support the church ? This organization does much for the home, the community, and the Nation and does it generously, not stopping to choose who are going to share in the benefit, It is up to everybody who desires the growth of morality and a good type of living to assist in a material way. Not that money is the chief end aimed at but because there are many essential avenues where it is very necessary to farther most desirable projects that are ou the program of the church. A man who deadbeats his way in the world is not held up as a pattern of honesty or hon- or and those who refuse to aid In the financing of endeavors to bless the com- munity life shape up in a class that un- complimentary things might be said of them in speaking the strict truth. SPEAK commendatory words to those who are doing their best to succeed in work that is honorable for the public good. It is often worth more than dol- lars to know the energy and effort ex. peuded is appreciated. A tombstone or obituary notice are not the only places where complimeutary words should be voiced. Io many walks of life, from the public office bolder to the services or efforts of the children. there is ample room 'o develop the talent of apprecia Son and its cultivation, not for.pur- poses of 6 tttery, but common honesty and good cheer would yield large divi• dends to those who often find the load heavy or the pathway rough.

THE WAR AND MIGRATION TO CANADA Female Migration War Widows and Orphans To the Editor of TRE Pose, : DEAR SIR.—In further reference to my last letter, I would ask you to fled apace for an appeal on behalf, at once, of the wives of the farmers of Canada and the widows of those who have fallen and will yet fall in her defence, as one of the primary intentions of Prussia was to transfer the Dominion to the German Empire, Before the outbreak of hostilities we had 1,364,000 widows, or rather more than the excess of females over male inhabitants (1,386,000) at home, and the number will be terribly increased before peace is signed. Many thous. ands of the civilian widows were young women of the working classes, hard working, thrifty and domesticat- ed and practically the whole of the war widows will be equally desirable as home helps, especially on farms where the loneliness of the life die- aeurages girls to go to undertake do- mestic work, and the difficulties of in- spection deter people from sending them out. The farmer's wife also prefers to have the assistance of a reliable woman of her own age to that of a girl requiring instruction and con teal, The experience of a score of widows, each with one child, has been so satis- factory in New South Wales that such women are now regarded as potential domestic servants and given reduced fates as such, with a corres- ponding reduction in the fates of the children. The latter act as anchor to the mother, who consequently does not want to go out at night or to leave her situation at short notice. Her in- terest in her child also removes much of the loneliness women otherwise ex- perience in the reentry districts, es- pecially on the fringe of settlement. Will not Canada also, after placing opt all her own bereaved Women, iirTil4J4 24Fl4wii iit�4J 1i ni,/ift++Pit44.••144•'fr$4.41144 4441riA44It* • Surnmer ♦ • •• Vii. fi • •• • • • 3• • • i. + ♦ + ♦ • • • ••• • Remember all Summer Shoes Away Belo!

Receiving centres and districts for distribution can now be arranged in advance, and enquiry will show how Many widows with one or two children can be received. It wonld be a great advantage if those from each dieteict at house could be placed out in the same distributing area in Canada and such a transfer of population woptd be even more imperial than an ex- change of flags. Many of the place names in the Dominion are the same as those in the Mntherland. Our counties of Essex, Rent, Middlesex, Norfolk, Northumberland and Surrey, our cities of London, Westminister, York, Bristol, Carlisle, Newcastle, Peterborough, Liverpool and Hull, have their place namesakes in Canada and boroughs and towns such as Windsor, Falmouth, Brighton, Hast- ings, Berwick, Aylesford, Richmond and Inverness are likewise commem- orated in names in the Dominion. May these and other place names soon be united in population across the Atlantic. Such systetnatic flow of population horn one place to another of the same name would be of mutual ad van tage. Such a movement would make for a United Empire and reduce not only our own femininity of population but also Canada's excess of 440,000 males, who in Lima would' thus hope to he - come 440,000 fathers, which at present is impossible. Surely the women of Canada will do something for their sisters at home. Yours faithfully, Tilos. E. Szoeswsca. 83, Oriental Street, Poplar, London E. July 1915. GRAND LODGE OF 1.0. 0. F. The Olst commemoration of the Grand Lodge of the Independent Order of Oridfellows wits held at Strat- ford, on Thursday and Friday, Aug. 11th and 12th. Sessions were held in the Collegiate Assembly Hall and over 800 representatives of Ontat io Lodges were present. Grand Master D. M. McIntyre, in presenting his annual report, said that while it Was scathe!), expected that during the past year, overshadowed as it has been by the dark clouds of war, any notable extension of the Order shonld take plare ; still it will be observed that the ()trier hos more than held its own. 'There Ices 110011 growth, nob merely in old Ontatrin but in those new areas to the North and Nest, whose.' iches the enterpeiae and energy of our people are nnly just be- ginning to appreciate.

CARTER'S, Agent ' Brussels THE AUTO -OILED WINDMILL WITH DUPLICATE OEAR8 RUNNING IN OIL z2i lKtl Every bearing is constantly flooded with oil. Two quarts of oil in the gear case of this 8 -foot auto -oiled windmill will keep the gears and every bearyag flooded with oil for a year or more. The galvanized steel helmet covers the gears, keeps out rain, keeps out dust, keeps in oil. The mill needs oiling but once a year. There is a windmill, known the world over as "the windmill which runs when all others stand still." This new windmill with gears and bearings flooded with pit runs iti much less Wing thsn i it Eve11 known windmill. The two large gears, w raha1341 the -load straight hp, are each independent of thq other and yach ie driven by itwown pinion on the main shaft and must take its hall of rho Toad at 411 duce. The auto-otled wladmif,withltaduplicate gears and two pitmen lifting theload straight up, is tin - rod.Every5•footmill Is tested under a pumping load of 3000 pounds on the pump rod. For the larger elms the load le proportionately greater. We know that every one of these windmills is unbreakable. We venture the assertion that this Is the most nearly perfect, beat made, best tested, best oiled, most nearly perpetual, automatic and self- sufficient of any machine of any kind ever made for farm work and the most nearly foolproof. There is no friction on any part of the furl. Mg device when the mill is running and very little when•the wheel is furled. A small child can eaeilydurl this windmill or an automatic regulator can take care Of It. One of these mills has been furled 10,000 times 1a one day by a man on our premises—more times than it would ordinarily be furled in 30 years of service. A band brake. of the automobile type,.is used, and It always holds. The gear case contains two pairs of gears and the supply of oil. From this tear case the oil circelateg to every bearing in a constant stream. It flows out hrough the friction Wa'shers in the hub of the wheel and is automatically returned to the gear case, Not a drop of oil can gspape. It is used over and over, So long as there is arty oil in the gear pan rho para and every hearing will be flooded with oil.

It costs but little and you will pot the differenoo between no water in a Tight wind and an abundance of water In almost no wind. The flooding of all the workipg parts with oil, the perfect balance of the wheel and vane on the tower, the very small turntable on which the mill pivots and the outside furling device make this difference. Now there is no objection to a high tower. Have as high a tower as you need to get wind. You don't have to climb it. Your dealer can come once a year and put to oil, if needed, and inspect the mill, lv Mentes water purifies itself --stagnant water, standing water, collects and retains Impur- ities. If you yamp from your well' constantly all the water Mean spare, the water that comes in to take its place will be pure. if the water in your well stands until you happen to want some, and you pump but little, thea It le likely that surface water will flow into it and carry in Im. purities. The unsafe well lathe one that has standing water. A flowing stream is the thing to be desired. The auto-olled windmill makes all this passible as it can run from one year's end to the other with practically no wear and no cost. If Interested, write Aermotor Co. 1146 So, Campbell Ave., Chicago. Why not have flowing water, cool in Bummer and warm in winter, always rash and pure? It will cost next to nothing, it will give health to your family and stock. Let the water run Into a good size reservoir and mise all the ash of the choice klnda your family can eat, and have water to irrigate your garden and make it raise many times an much alit would otherwise.
