Quite a number from Varna at-
tended service in the Presbyterian
church, Bayfield, Sunday last, anni-

Rev. Mr. iVlcleillan, Toronto,
Dr. Lorne Moffat of London, who
recently purchased a farm at Varna,
met with an accident .ono evening
recently while motoring up from the
Forest City which might easily have
resulted more seriously. He had
put in a busy day in his oipce and
then, determining to take a few
days 00, be' left the city in the ev-
ening to motor up to his country
place. When about a mile or so the
other side of 13rucelield Dr. Moffat,
instead of going up onto a bridge,
ran his oar against the end of the
railing. lie was probably .somewhat
drowsy and was not paying sufficient
attention, managing the wheel me-
chanically, but the belting is sure
that If he,, was half asleep before he
struck the bridge he got a rude
awakening as the wind shield and all
the front part of the running gear
of his machine was badly smashed.
Aside from a severe shock and a
few minor bruises, Dr. Moffat was
himself uninjured and he has reason
for thankfulness that he escaped so
well. The ear was taken up to
Seeley's repair shop, Clinton, a pair
of wagon wheels being put under the
front part of it, and it stands there
now for repairs. It is certainly a
'pretty badly broken up car as far
as the front part of it is concerned.

This is going to take every kind of

the Food- Administration are all call-

can only make such service 100 pee

"It is the function of the Red

It is the function of the Food ad-

P11iL HISTORY
Heroes of Britain Will Pass in
Review Before Crowds at
t the Canadian National
Exhibition
islemories of the great fighters of
long ago, the heroes of a thousand
battles by land and sea, will be re-
awakened by the Grand Stand Spec-
tacle at the Canadian National Ex-
hibition. "Britannia Militant" will
be more than a mere pageant ; it
will. he tie spirit of our Empire past
and present, translated into flesh and
blood, a romantic ,bistoric survey in
which the spectators will be made to
feel their kinship with the men of
old. '''here will be a suggestion of the
Arthurian legends, of mediaeval
knights, ancient castles, venerable
cathedral ruins, and all the colorful
paraphernalia of history and of ro-
mance. The spirit of the Empire's
yesterday will be caught and con-
trasted with the martial deeds of to-
day and the nien of the present, now
fighting the greatest battle of all
times, will not suffer: by camparison,
particularly in the dramatic climax
when Currie's gallant Canadians ar-
rive on the scene. The setting will
he a gigantic reproduction of Wind-
sor Castle, the scenic arrangement
and general ensemble being the most
elaborate ever produced at the Cana-
dian National. There will be over
1,200 participants, all brilliantly at-
tired in the styles of the period they
represent, and the whole. inspiring
eileet will be enhanced by superb
musical treatment.
IIAS LOST ITS "KICK,"
The. Hamilton Herald declares there
is more whiskey consumed in Canada
today that there was under the old

the liquor must have lost its poten-

PrepAring hews for Winter
In all parts of Canada thorn was a
Heavy loss of bees itt the wintor of
19J„ -d8, Menet of thee fess was
ereVentable, The increased value of
Honey urges us to make ti special
effort to prevent it titin oolning win-
ter. One of the principal causes of
the loss( was insullieient protection
of the boos wintered outside, In no
part of Canada should colonies be
wintered outside without an outer
case covering the hive and ovary -
whore, except, perhaps, on Vancouv-
er Island, this ease should he large
enough to allow for 3 to G itches of
packing around the sides and be-
neeth the hive, ant' 10 inches or
more on top. It is advisable to
havo the case large enough to take
2 to 4 Nivea en bloc, and the en-
trances in it should be reduced to
of an inch wide'by 1h incites high
with no projecting ledge beneath to
lodge snow or ice. It is important
that the apiary should bo sheltered
on. all aides from wind, say by an
8 foot board fence or evergreens,- In
very cold districts or during an ex-
tra hard or long winter, the bees
will winter better is a well -insulat-
ed and dry cellar than outside:
Another important cause of loss
was unwholesome or insufficient
stores. honey -dew, fruit -juice, mol-
asses and syrup made from low
grade sugar, -will kill the bees he -
fore spring. 'Phe most reliable stor-
es tot winter are well ripened clov-
er honey, buckwheat honey,. and
syrup made .from refined sugar. Some
honeys gathered in the fall are un-
wholesome. Be. sure that the stores
are well ripened and capped over be-
fore cold heather, and that each
colony has about 30 pounds.
The remaining causes of loss were
weak colonies, queenlessness, too
high a proportion of old bees ' to
young bees due to old or drone -
breeding queens, and the depreda-
tions of mice.
Weak colonies should he united and
the hives packed in the wintering
cases about the middle of Septem-
ber, and- any feeding that is found
to be necessary should be completed
before the end of September except
in Southern Ontario when. a week
longer is allowable.
Owing to the shortage of sugar,
some capped combs of the purest
clover honey should, it possible, be
reserved for wintering., 13e sure that
this has been gathered by bees free
from foul brood. These combs
should be left in the care of the bees
until required.
MAKING CONSUMER 100 PER

Government Experts to Demonstrate
Lessons Learned in Miss
Canada's Kitchen at
Exhibition
A Government patriotic food sitosv,
occupying one entire building, will
be one of the features at the coming
Canadian National Exhibition, The
show will be in charge of the Food
Controller's Department and experts
from Macdonald Institutes, at Guelph
and Quebec, from Toronto University
and outer domestic science schools,
will demonstrate the many discov-
eries in kitchen economics made since
Miss Canada took up the task of
food conservation. It will be the
most comprehensive attempt yet
made by the Government to teach in
a sitnple, practical way the housewife
methods of keeping clown expenses
without lessening in the least the
nutritive and palatable qualities of
her meals. To snake Canada 100 pee
cent efficient in food consumption is
the avowed object of the display.
The purchasing and preparation of
food will be demonstrated as will
also the elimination of waste and the
use of substitutes for the foodstuffs
most needed Overseas. An interest-
ing feature will be a complete model
kitchen of a large New York hotel,
in which expert chefs will show how
efficiently the groat modern hostel-
ries prepare their menus.

GIGANTIC PANORAMA OF 1;11'1-
P11iL HISTORY
Heroes of Britain Will Pass in
Review Before Crowds at
t the Canadian National
Exhibition
islemories of the great fighters of
long ago, the heroes of a thousand
battles by land and sea, will be re-
awakened by the Grand Stand Spec-
tacle at the Canadian National Ex-
hibition. "Britannia Militant" will
be more than a mere pageant ; it
will. he tie spirit of our Empire past
and present, translated into flesh and
blood, a romantic ,bistoric survey in
which the spectators will be made to
feel their kinship with the men of
old. '''here will be a suggestion of the
Arthurian legends, of mediaeval
knights, ancient castles, venerable
cathedral ruins, and all the colorful
paraphernalia of history and of ro-
mance. The spirit of the Empire's
yesterday will be caught and con-
trasted with the martial deeds of to-
day and the nien of the present, now
fighting the greatest battle of all
times, will not suffer: by camparison,
particularly in the dramatic climax
when Currie's gallant Canadians ar-
rive on the scene. The setting will
he a gigantic reproduction of Wind-
sor Castle, the scenic arrangement
and general ensemble being the most
elaborate ever produced at the Cana-
dian National. There will be over
1,200 participants, all brilliantly at-
tired in the styles of the period they
represent, and the whole. inspiring
eileet will be enhanced by superb
musical treatment.
IIAS LOST ITS "KICK,"
The. Hamilton Herald declares there
is more whiskey consumed in Canada
today that there was under the old
license system. If that be true,
the liquor must have lost its poten-
cy. Under the old license system
drunken nien itt the streets were so
common as to occasion no remark.
Now to see the is rare indeed.—Oril-
lia Packet,

PrepAring hews for Winter
In all parts of Canada thorn was a
Heavy loss of bees itt the wintor of
19J„ -d8, Menet of thee fess was
ereVentable, The increased value of
Honey urges us to make ti special
effort to prevent it titin oolning win-
ter. One of the principal causes of
the loss( was insullieient protection
of the boos wintered outside, In no
part of Canada should colonies be
wintered outside without an outer
case covering the hive and ovary -
whore, except, perhaps, on Vancouv-
er Island, this ease should he large
enough to allow for 3 to G itches of
packing around the sides and be-
neeth the hive, ant' 10 inches or
more on top. It is advisable to
havo the case large enough to take
2 to 4 Nivea en bloc, and the en-
trances in it should be reduced to
of an inch wide'by 1h incites high
with no projecting ledge beneath to
lodge snow or ice. It is important
that the apiary should bo sheltered
on. all aides from wind, say by an
8 foot board fence or evergreens,- In
very cold districts or during an ex-
tra hard or long winter, the bees
will winter better is a well -insulat-
ed and dry cellar than outside:
Another important cause of loss
was unwholesome or insufficient
stores. honey -dew, fruit -juice, mol-
asses and syrup made from low
grade sugar, -will kill the bees he -
fore spring. 'Phe most reliable stor-
es tot winter are well ripened clov-
er honey, buckwheat honey,. and
syrup made .from refined sugar. Some
honeys gathered in the fall are un-
wholesome. Be. sure that the stores
are well ripened and capped over be-
fore cold heather, and that each
colony has about 30 pounds.
The remaining causes of loss were
weak colonies, queenlessness, too
high a proportion of old bees ' to
young bees due to old or drone -
breeding queens, and the depreda-
tions of mice.
Weak colonies should he united and
the hives packed in the wintering
cases about the middle of Septem-
ber, and- any feeding that is found
to be necessary should be completed
before the end of September except
in Southern Ontario when. a week
longer is allowable.
Owing to the shortage of sugar,
some capped combs of the purest
clover honey should, it possible, be
reserved for wintering., 13e sure that
this has been gathered by bees free
from foul brood. These combs
should be left in the care of the bees
until required.
MAKING CONSUMER 100 PER

Government Experts to Demonstrate
Lessons Learned in Miss
Canada's Kitchen at
Exhibition
A Government patriotic food sitosv,
occupying one entire building, will
be one of the features at the coming
Canadian National Exhibition, The
show will be in charge of the Food
Controller's Department and experts
from Macdonald Institutes, at Guelph
and Quebec, from Toronto University
and outer domestic science schools,
will demonstrate the many discov-
eries in kitchen economics made since
Miss Canada took up the task of
food conservation. It will be the
most comprehensive attempt yet
made by the Government to teach in
a sitnple, practical way the housewife
methods of keeping clown expenses
without lessening in the least the
nutritive and palatable qualities of
her meals. To snake Canada 100 pee
cent efficient in food consumption is
the avowed object of the display.
The purchasing and preparation of
food will be demonstrated as will
also the elimination of waste and the
use of substitutes for the foodstuffs
most needed Overseas. An interest-
ing feature will be a complete model
kitchen of a large New York hotel,
in which expert chefs will show how
efficiently the groat modern hostel-
ries prepare their menus.

With so many low-priced
