A M.OTHER'S LOVE
There is joy in the flight of an eagle,
Par reaching and free;
And grace in the infinite sweep
Of the limitless sea.
There is beauty in autumnal forests
All crimson and gold,
Like the glory of conquering banners
In battles of old.
And the voice of the wind in the
grasses
Is nature's own call,
But the love of a mother surpasses
The best of them all,
J. McLeish.
British Empire Medal for
Exeter Sgt.
The award of the British Empire
Medal to Cpl.. Steward; Charles
Wright, former Exeter' mechanic and
a son of • Mr. and Mrs. William Wright
of Exeter, formerly of Stephen town-
ship, was announced Thursday, April
4th, by the Department of National
Defence.
Cpl. Wright enlisted for active
service with the Royal Canadian
Army Service Corps on Sept. 20, 1939
and went overseas on Dec. 6, that
year. He has been serving iii the
Italian campaign.
The fact that 100 per cent of the
average 1940-41 machinery output
will be available in 1945 does not
mean that demand for all types and
varieties of agricultural equipment
can be filled, Mr. McPhillips said.
Rationing of farm machinery will
still be necessary and only the most
urgent essential meds oan be met.
Although some materials are in
greater supply at the present time,
shortage of.manpower and difficulty
of securing other materials becomes
a determining factor in the amount
of equipment.

Large Cache of Honey Tak,
en From House Walls
Mr. Edwin Cartwright made a very
profitable trip to the farm of Nelson!
Lear on Tuesday, where he was sues
eessful in procuring •a large bulk of
Clover honey from the walls of Mr.
Lear's farm dwelling. Mr. Cartwright
estimates - that the ca'elie should pro. '
duce in the neighbourhood of 100
pounds of extracted honey. Besides
the honey he will have the wax, whioh
is also very valuable and hard to
procure. Then too,he was successful
in capturing the bees, which will add
another hive to his stock.
All in all, it was a very profitable
trip for Mr. Cartwright. —Blyth

and are easy to make.
MOST amateurs thins about mak-
ing snapshots outdoors in nice
sunny weather but when winter ar-
rives --well, too many, uniortunate-
ly, relegate their cameras to the
closet shelf, or a drawer, to hiber-
nate until some special occasion
brings them out for action.
In these days of film shortage,
due to the requirements of our gov-
ernment, that is all right to 'a cer-
tain extent. We should conserve
film but that does not mean that
we should stop taping pictures.
Shooting ;promiscously is wasting
film but taking purposeful pictures
is -certainly justified, especially if
they are for those in the Service.
Winter is an ideal time for talc:
ingpictures indoors and, carefully
