AUTUMN
'' The woods are still,
•Ou every hill
The flames bf goldenrod are'burning;
While every fluttering summer leaf:
From emerald'tint'to ruby's turning.
.Across the sky
''The wild geese fly
To happy southern lands a -winging,
And harks amid the frost-lblettehed
grass
The last gay crickets are a -singing.
Far hills and dales
The Autumn veils
In misty gray and purple hue;
The winding roads are aster lined
And arched with sky of saplihire blue,
Thus Autumn dear
With. joy and cheer,

dour;
With gipsy winds, to lure us on

such prosperous -looking farms and
;just et present is a, good time to take
a drive through the country. Huron-
County, too, will show' as much pros-
perity. and beauty as any part of the
country, with its broad, rolling acres
of good farm land, its winding
streams, its laden ,orchards and ever
and anon its patches of woodland,
just now turning from green to pale
gold or vivid crimson. It is a sight
to gladclen the eye and delight the
soul.
Now, of course, I know full well
that the farmers have no markets in
which to sell their surplus products
at a profit; that the apple crop in
Huron county is this year far below
the usual, and that the farming in-
dustry is hard put to it to make ends
meet and carry on properly. I know
all this and yet, there is no getting
arodnd the fact that the crops on the
whole have beengood, that Nature
has done her best to supply human
needs and that in this good land there
is nothing which even remotely re-
sembles want. Something has gone
wrong with the proper distribution
of commodities and those who need
the things which farmers grow can-
not buy them, hence the farmer, who
would like to purchase more of the
things which other people make can-
not afford to buy them, so both are
at a loss. But in the early, olde•1
days Thanksgiving Day was set a-
part primarily to return thanks to a
kind Providence for sending a boun-
tiful harvest and in that respect this
Part of the country has had abun-
dant reason for thankfulness,

Ridgetown will not have a curfew
bell, the town council deciding a-
gainst it after discussing it at two
consecutive meetings, but the effort
will be continued to keep children off
the streets after nine o'clock. Feat

from getting into inischief.
Even in a town like Clinton any-

such children to be on the street,
will be surprised to see 'children and
young people of tender years either
playing about in the street or walk-

night without an older person with

DEAFNESS
Deafness is a serious matter. It
interferes with education when it roc-
• curs early in life, and it is a handi-
cap in business. In addition, the deaf
are shut out from much' of the en-
joyment of life, and from free and
• easy communication with their
friend.,.
The ear is divided into three, parts.
The external ear catches the sound,
turns it into a canal about one inch
in length, at the end of which is:found
the ear drum. Beyond the drum is
the middle ear, which is connected
with the upper part of the throat by
a tube. Farther back, encased in
• bone, is the inner ear.
Deafness is largely preventable,
-Very few people are born deaf. In
order that deafness may be prevent-
ed, the ears must be kept healthy.
The hairs which line the ear canal
• should never be pulled out, as ser-
• ions and painful infections, like boils,
often result. Matches, tooth picks,
• knitting neddles, hair pins, finger tips
• or otheer such, articles should not be,
used to clean the ears or to scratch.
' them if itching occurs. There is an
old saying that "you should never put
anything into your ear smaller than
your elbow."
Leave your ears alone and leave
•children's ears, alone. Do not attempt,
to remove wax, you will most likely
press some of it against the clrrnn
and so cause harm. The ears are -too
Precious to entrust to unskilled hands.
Deafness usually has its beginning
' !Irt disease of the nose and. throat,
most frozen. This will be ehough

There are sueh lovely things to
oe made from grapes and this is
Canada's grape season. They are
healthful and delicious, housewives
should not only include diem in the
daily menu, but put some away for
future use. Here are some recipes
for using grapes:
Grape Trifle
Pulp through a sieve two pounds
of ripe grapes, enough to keep back
the stones, add sugar to taste. Put
into trifle dish and cover with whip-
ped cream, nicely flavored. Serve
very cold.

Grape Jelly
Mash well to remove the skins,
pour all into preserving kettle, cook
slowly a: few minutes to extract the
'juice; strain through colander, then
through flannel jelly -bag, keep hot
as possible; measure the juice, allow
a pound of loaf sugar to every pint
of juice; and boil fast for one-half
hour. Remove and put into glasses.
Preserved Grapes
A delicious preserve can be made
of Grapes. Cut each grape open with
a knife and extract the seeds; add
sugar to the fruit, pound for pound;
cook slowly for one-half hour or
longer until the syrup and pulp of
the grape are perfectly clear and
transparent.

from whence the disease spreads up
the tube which connects the throat
and middle ear. It is obvious that the
health of the middle ear depends upon
the health of the nose and throat.
Any condition which causes inflam-
mation of the nose er throat is apt to
spread up into the middle ear and set
up inflammation there; tissues are
destroyed, pus is formed, and the ear
discharges. It is in this way that
the common cold, measles, scarlet
fever, diptheria, diseased tonsils and
adenoids are the underlying causes of
middle ear disease which leads to
deafness in later years.
The nose should not be washed out
except under a doctor's direction, as
in so doing infection may be ,forced
up into the middle ear. For the same
reason, the nose should never be
blown violently, and above all never
when there is a cold in the head.
The prevention of deafness depends
chiefly upon proper .care of common
calds, adequate treatment of measles
and other infections, prevention of
diphtheria, removal of diseased ton.
sits and adenoids, and blowing the
nose properly.
Leave your ears alone, keep your
nose and throat healthy, secure skill-
ed care if there is anything wrong,
and you will retain the use of one of
yourmost valued organs of sense,
the ear. .

The picture of Canada making fine
furniture from British West Indies
trees and then selling some of that
furniture to the very people who cut
the trees, is seen between the lines
of an article appearing in the cur-
rent issue of the Canada -\Vest In-
dies Magazine.
The article is by Sir Norman La-
mont, a British authority on timber.
He says the British West Indies a-
bound in trees which will be valuable
long after man has discovered a
means of dispensing entirely with
Softwood materials. Mahoganies,
crappe, samaii, balsam, cypr'e, locust,
purpleheart, roble and many other
species are named --by Sir Norman at'
a veritable tropical treasure as yet
almost unexploited.
..SOME FISH PAMPERED,
SOME NOT
If you think the much -fished -for
fish of Canada are all to be pitied,.
make a note of what happens to some
of the luckier varieties. They in-
habit gay summer resorts in summer
and fine city hotels in winter.
Now that Jasper Park Lodge, in
the Canadian Rockies is closed, the
gold fish that summered outdoors in
Jasper have arrived., by railway ex
-
prises in milk cans, at the Hotel Mac-
donald in Edmonton and at the Forr
Garry in Winnipeg, there to spend
the winter in luxurious indoor pools.
Less fortunate are the fish that
summered at Mivalti Lodge, another
Canadian National Railways sum-
mer .resort. They are of the species
bass. and bass are considered ineoni1
patible with gold fish. The Minalti
fish were put into the outdoor pools
by children last spring and have been
released into the. Winnipeg river to
mend the winter in deep waters, fax
from the maddening crowd,
Even less fortunate will he the
Minaki bass of next year. It is plan-
ned to place numerous speciiuens in
the outdoor pools next spring, to fat-
ten them during the sunny months
and to serve 11151 i as pieces de resist
twice on the dining room tables of
the Lodge. ?

REWARDS
Of all rewards 'beneath the sum
The best is this; to hear within,
.Above the world's loud strife mai
din,
A quiet voice that says: "Well done."
Some labor long for worldly fame,
And count it as life's highest prize
Star -bright, sun -bright in their
rapt eyes
Shines this fair girt of man's ac-
claim.
And others hold the praise of friends
A thing more dear, of greater
worth;
Love's voice alone they ask of
Earth,
For every lack it makes amends.
But best of all the guordons won
In Earth's applause, or friendly
hearts;
The voice which greatest bliss im-
partsi
Is ono withn that says "Web done!"

Nor from the haze of autunm's ways,

Where quiet trees were budding
And a bluebird .cane to sing.
To me there's more sof splendor
In theredand gold of leaves,
And less of sadness clinging
To, the ripened grain. in sheaves;
For I have breathed the fragrance
When blossoms sweet unfold,
Where. now I gaze, with rapture,
On fruit all luscious gold.
