Have You Heard?
—o=
A whimsical professor, trying
to emphasize a point in logic,
asked hts class: "If the United
States is bounded on the east by
the Atlantic Ocean, en the west
by the Pacific Ocean, on the north
by Canada and on the south by
Mexico, how old am I?" The
brighter students sat dumfound-
ed, but the dopiest of them all
spoke up: "You'd be 44." Dum-
founded in turn, the professor.
said, "That's right, young man,
But how in the world did you
know?" The student answered:
"That's easy. I have a brother who
is half nuts and he's 22,"
"How kind of you," said
the girl, "to bring me those
lovely flowers. They are so
beautiful and fresh. I believe
there is some dew on them
yet."
"Yes," stammered the
young man, quite taken
aback, "but I am going to pay
it off tomorrow."
At the close of .tis talk before
a Sunday school the bishop invit-
ed questions. A tiny boy with
white, eager face at once raised
his hand.
"Please sir," said he, "why was
Adam never a baby?" .
The bishop coughed, in doubt
as to what answer to give, but a
little girl, the eldest of several
brothers and sisters, came prompt-
ly to his aid.
"Please, sir," she answered,
smartly, "there was nobody to
nurse hila."
"I hope you enjoyed your
game with the major," said
the hostess to one of her
guests. "He's very clever at
cards, isn't he?"
"He certainly is," replied
the guest. "He started by
telling my fortune, and now
he's counting it."
"Tell me, Doctor, how do you
really know whether a person is
insane?"
"Oh, we merely ask a few ques-
tions which ordinary people can
answer correctly," was the reply.
"What type of question?"
"Well," explained the alienist,
"this is the sort of thing: Captain
Cook made three voyages around
the world and died during one
of them. Which trip was it?"
"Oh, S say," protested the of-
ficial, "I think that is a bit steep.
I'm not very good at history."
Hitler's father once con-
sulted an architect. The fam-
ily couldn't quite decide
whether to build a frame
house or brick one.. When
Adolf was born though, they
got stucco.

Need More Wood
To Free Metas
For War Goods
Owen Sound Firm's Wooden
Pails Release Metal For
Munitions
Under the impact of war -born
metal shortages, wood is filling an
increasingly important role in
Canada's war -time economy. The
Dominion is immensely wealthy in
this natural resource and is thus
able to offset many of the disad-
vantages which would normally
follow a decrease in the quanti-
ties of metal available for goods
other than the actual machines
and munitions of war, Many of
these peace -time goods are equally
essential in times of war.
A case in point is the common
pail. Formerly many of these
were made of metal, Today, how-
ever, wood is proving a wholly
acceptable substitute: The Keenan
Woodenware Manufacturing Co.
Ltd., of Owen Sound is playing
an important role in this release
of metal for war purposes. by the
production of wooden pails. This
company has increased its produd-
tion of wooden pails by approxi-
mately T5 per cent. It is now
manufacturing about 20,000
wooden pails every week. It is
easy to visualize the amount of
metal which this production re-
leases for other purposes, whore
wood ',would not prove an accept-
able substitute.
Need More Wood
These. Wooden pails are manu-
factured from poplar and bass-
wood, which are plentiful in the
Owen Sound district. Neverthe-
less, there is a dangerous bottle-
neck developing in wooden pail
production. Increased production
by the Keenan Woodenware Mfg.
Co., has, of course, resulted in
a greatly increased use of wood.
A shortage of this raw material
has now developed. Wood is
available in the bush, but unless
farmers and others in the district
co-operate in getting this wood to
the factory the production of
wooden pails will decrease. This,
in turn, will mean diverting preci-
ous metal from the production of
planes, tanks and guns.
Farmers and bush owners in the
district have been •doing a fine
job in the supply of wood, but
more is needed, Prices paid for
timber are higher today than at
any time in recent years; provid-
ing an attractive return for this
work. Higher prices coupled with
the fact that every wooden pail
produced is a distinct aid to the
war effort of the Dominion, should
provide incentive for increasing
the production of wood.

says the New Yorker. With leis
absence dragging' on into its sec-
ond year, the lad wrote, ho would
not blame her if she broke her

apparently been too •much for the
censor, -who had put his comment
in the margin, in large block let-
ters: "NONSENSE!'

Should Allies Police
Germany After War?
James W. Gerard, ambassador
of the United States to Germany
during the Great War, is out-
spoken on a subject that is being
widely discussed' today, the treat-
ment of Germany after the war,
says The Galt Reporter. Speaking
at New York, be said:
"International bankers make
me sick. I heard one say that we
need, after the war, a bappy,
prosperous Germany. After the
last war we kissed the good, kind
Germans, gave them food and
good United States money, and
they repaid us by a gangster war
to control the world and started
a persecution of a peaceful people
which has no parallel even in the

middle ages."
Mr. Gerard tj)inl(s that it will
be necessary for the Allied na-
tions to police Germany after the
war, "otherwise Germane will bo
torn to pieces by the revenge of
the outraged peoples of Europe."
Maty people are thinking that
the conflagration envisaged by
Mr. Gerard, in his last quotation,.
would not be a bad solutio) to
the German problem. Why not
leave the gangsters to the mercy
of those whom they have despoil-
ed in the worst outbreak of bru-
tality and inhumanity that has
ever been recorded in history?
