"might have been be- lieved if he had named any other date." • • • A pian in New York City was backed into his owe doorway one day last week and robbed of. :`1400,000. Nothing like that will - 'happen to us, though, We •stover -carry that Welch on us' all at one time. H. H: "Dewart doesn't seem to be very well pleased with the Drury -Cabinet. It -would be pretty hard to :please Hartley H. in regard to a cab- inet, however, unless hedid the -choosing, and then he couldn't fill. .all the offices himself. is • • • Premier Drury has set an exam- -pie to public servants by lopping three thousand dollars ,off his salary. No doubt 89.000 looks like a nice .salary to a man who is just coming in from the farm. By the time he pays Toronto prices for everything for a while he may wish he'd left that salary just as it was. • • • "Saving money," Says the Hanover Post, "isn't the glorious thing many would have, us_ believe. Nineteen years :ago we •took out a twenty-year en- -downtent policy.. When it matures next year the face of the policy will :buy ns a pair 4- of ' shoes, ten gallons of gasoline, a cord tire' .and a pair of theatre tickets. And twenty years ago we thought it would :buy us a house, a new bicycle, a .rneersehaum pipe, a.. corduroy waist- coat and a trip around the world." • • *. "Lindsay Crawford, editor of the -Statestftan, talking to the Hamilton 'Women's Liberal Club last week, told them that Liberalism is a living -creed worthy to be embraced by all Canadians who cherish high and pure ,political ideas.' Very true, Now, would Mr; Crawford further enlight- en us. We would be glad to know 'where, in Canada, the sort of Lib- •eralism he speaks of may be -found, :and who are the leaders that both ,preach and practise it?"---Simcoe Reformer. • • • "What's the matter with the Jenk- :inses"?" asks The Toronto Daily ' .Star. "Uncle Sam niay get into war • -with Mexico over a man named Jenkins, and last century Great Britain made war because a man. named Jenkins had his ears cut off." Alli the Jenkinses around here are quiet, peaceable folk. They don't run around getting their ears cut off .and getting themselves kidnapped by bandits and thus making trouble .for the Government, These trouble- some Jenkinses must be another .branch of the family.

MONEY WELL SPENT • In these days of expensive living theest on u i with h mostp a e 0 1 is to p get the best value for one's money. In the case of newspapers or nmag- azines there can be no doubt about The Family Herald 'and Weekly Star of Montreal giving the greatest value for the money on the.contin- ent. The Family Herald and Week- ly Star is a wonderful combination of newspaper, magazine, and Agri- cultural paper. It costs only $1.25 a year and each subscriber receives a handsome souvenir portrait of the Prince of Wales, 16x22 inches. We learn that the subscription price will be $1.60 after December 31st. No better value can be had than a year's trial aal of the big Montreal Weekly. It consists of 64 pages each week and every page interesting and instructive. A GREAT EVENT An event of gthe greatest: import- ance to every man and woman in- terested in Agriculture in this Prov- ince, is the approaching Convention of the TJ. F. 0., to be -held in Tor- onto on December 16, 17and 18. This gathering will be of great sig- nificance to the farming community. You should keep in touch with every move made. You aunt- do this by reading the farmer's own paper, The Farmer's Sun, which will give most exhaustive reports of 'every natter discussed at the great Con- vention. During 1920 there will be tiffany improvements in the Sun. Every department will be enlarged, re -mod- eled and strengthened. Although the 'cost of the improvements to be made will be great, and An increase in the subscription price necessary, the price has not been raised yet and $1,00, if remitted at once, will secure for you, without doubt, the greatest Win newspaper for 1920. ' Send in your subscriptfen at once and get your neighbor to take ad- vantage of the present subscription price. - There is no other paper just like The Sun, and none in the same posi- tion to help you. Over 30,000 On- tario farmers subscribed for the Sun. Why not you? Send your order di - met to THE FARMERS' SUN, TO- RONTO, ONTARIO. - News of 'Happenings h the Conan and District Lucknow has arrived at a settle - tient regarding the electric light plant, the village to pay 1VIr.
