HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Clinton News Record, 1933-10-19, Page 5''THURS., OCT. 19, 1933 OF INTEREST TO _ YOU AND ME The overssibscription of the new Dominion loan lily thirty-one millions sof dollars demonstrates the fact that ',Canada is still solvent. Apparently Canadians have some money and some ,bonds and are wil- ..ling to allow the Government to use same, at a modest rate of interest. : It is much .better to : accept a low rate of interest and be sure of the :safety of the investment than to risk one's savings in the hope o a : larger annual return. • s w e • "Fowl suppers are being adyezt- tised in this district with an acintis-i ' ssion fee of • only 25e" remarks the, Hanover Post. "Of all the bargains ' •mfrered these days, a fowl supper in tthe country with all 'the trimmings', ' at a quarter strikes us as'beating' them all," Judging by the way some of these; --'editors tuck away food, we shotild, say the above is not overstating 'the -case. • • • a Germany still seems to have 'her •land 'against every other nation in, the world. Now that the great na- 'tions -wish to reduce armaments to Germany's level, Hitler kicks over the traces and declares Germany's • right to increase armaments to the ' level of other nations. But the world ' is against increase in )armaments; against war and the preparation for war, Germany will indeed find her, • .self isolated and friendless if she does not curb this spirit. The death of a London dentist and ' his daughter from monoxide gas in ' their own garage on Sunday after- noon is another reminder of the ter- ribly deadly nature of these fumes. ' Co many tragedies have been the result of carelessness or ' thoughtlessness in regard to this danger that it is a wonder people are not on their guard. Everyone should lcnow that it Is unsafe to start an engine in a closed b'uild- ' itig, or even to work around the ex- haust pipe of a motor when the en- • gine _ is running. Apparently the fumes work painlessly and very • swiftly. Last week we had the following • penned for our editorial page but at the last minute had to pull it out to • make room for correspondence, but 'we feel that it is not out of date yet, • although as ariile any editorial left - over goes into the discard. "A little jaunt about the) country now is well repaid if one has an eye for beauty as the maple trees are putting on their beautiful gar - silents, prior to their retiring into 'their Iong winter sleep. Some of the colorings are gorgecus and they • change so rapidly that they change over night. This is one beauty which r can be . enjoyed without going very far front home, too. Dr. Fowler and Mrs. Fowler were up from Guelph ' last week -end and they gave it as - their opinion that the beauty of the trees as they carne into the town -exceeded anything they had seen this season. Clinton has a great many lovely maple trees which this week are at their best in regard to autumn colorings. Do not fail to get out and see some of them before the leaves fall." 61 • � From time to time we hear some- rne say that Ontario is to have a liquor policy which "will please all." Stich a policy is out of the question; it is impossible to please at the same time those who want the traffic :throttled and those who want it giv- en every chance to grow and expand. The agitation for a wider sale of liquors of any sort always comes from the manufacturers or those in- terested in the sale, aided and abet- ted by many thoughtless persons who have allowed themselvo's to become 'the dupes of such interested parties. The great mass of people are quite -content to have the traffic very stringently controlled. Take away the element of gain front the traffic .and all 'this agitation against restric- tions will cease. The only way to do this, so far as we can see, is for the -Governments to take over the man-, ufacture, This, it will be argued, 'would only encourage the illicit man- ufacture. Perhaps it might, for a time. But if the big manufacturers were out of it, together with the =money which they have been • freely rspending to discredit every restric- • tive measure introduced, all this sort of thing would die out in time. It is the 'big manufacturers, .those who have .made millions and who - wish to continue making millions out of the traffic, who are keeping 111- this rthis constant agitation for this change and that 'change, always a step backward for the friends of true temperance and a step for-; ward for those who wish to increase' ;sales. From tithe to time we hear of: people, mostly elderly, non -earning„ an 'people, possessing comfortable, ot•, Maybe scant, means, losing a good,' deal, perhaps the greater portion, by' ' 'being persuaded by slick -tongued; strangers to invest in worthless' -stock. It is a pathetic thing to see elderly folk thus imposed upon and "''':left to the tender mercies of a cold :world without proper ineanP of sup- •-sport and• we should like to see ade- quate punishment meted out to the scoundrels responsible, although in the majority of cases this is impos,. sible to achieve. But there is another side to • the question. If people were not so anx- ious to 'acquire; they would not be' tempted to, part With safe .bonds for those bearing the higher rates cd! interest. The majority of safe se- curities, bear a fair rate of interest, No doubt most people would like .more but as: a rule the rate is as large as anyone is justified in ex- pecting. ; Along conies some wily tongued salesman with the promise of a much higher rate and the avar- ice of the person approached is a- roused and he or she reaches put af- ter the promised higher gain. One would suppose that anyone of average intelligence i would under. stand that such promises of extra, vagrant returns could not be honestly made. The investments paying such high rates are not peddled about the country to individual buyers. A man said recently that these sales- men hypnotized people. Stuff and nonsense! It is the peoples' own avarice which hypnotizes them. What the average person needs to keep in mind, no matter with what smooth arguments they are apn,,roached, is that any offering of more than the average rate of interest on invest- ment is of very doubtful character and should no% be taken up by any- one without advice from financial ex- perts. Anyone in doubt should take time to consult his banker. And if the salesman wants to close the deal without this it is safe to conclude he's a fake and he should be ordered off the premises without further ado. Those who are past earning any- thing should be very careful about risking what they have, no matter how modest the sum, in any wildcat scheme. BAYFIELD A quiet but pretty wedding of a Bayfield girl was solemnized at United Centre Church Parsonage, London, on Saturday evening, Octo, her 14th, at eight o'clocic by Rev, E. W. Young, when Sara M. (Dolly) youngest daughter 'of Mr. and Mrs, Murdoch Ross of Bayfield became the bride of George A. Davison, 600 Peel St., Woodstock.

FELT HATS OF RABBIT SKIN The rabbit pest of Australia and New Zealand, like the cloud with the silver lining, has its brighter side, for in one year 34,668,680 rab- bits have been sold for their skins. These are sold principally to Great Britain and to North America where they inc manufactured into felt for hats, Better qualities are taken to furriers. Use Plenty of Green Foods For health green foods are neces- sary so do not neglect to supply it to your family during the fall and winter months. Nothing is ,better than Ontario grown leaf lettuce and Elio greener the leaf the better. One of the main problems which confronts( the housewife is the pro- per handling and storage of leaf lettuce in the home. It may be ne- cessary to keep the lettuce for a few days only, or it may be desired to keep it for a week or more. A cool cellar, an ice refrigerator or a mechanical refrigerator may be at one's disposal. With proper methods of storing, leaf lettuce will keep in good condition in a root cellar or a cool room from four to six days or longer, depending on the tempera- ture of the storage place. The home- maker who observes the following rules for the care of lettuce will find that leaf lettuce is very satisfactory in its keeping qualities. Several methods of storage may be used: -- 1. Refrigerator pan, which is a pan with a lid which has small holes in the top for ventilation. 2. An earthenware crock or bowl or a granite dish Or granite saucepan with cover. 3. A. wrapping of wet paper. 4. Ai wrapping of dampened cloth. Note—If the place of storage is very dry, a wrapping of dry -newspa- per around the wrapping of clamp cloth or paper will prevent rapid dry- ing out. For short periods of storage from 2 to 3 days, lettuce may be broken from the stem, washed thoroughly, only partially dried with a clear towel and stored .in any one of the above mentioned ways in a cool place, It is then ready for use when needed for the table. If -it is desired to keep the leaf lettuce for a week or more, it is ad- visabj'e,to always store it in the hunch, in any one of the methods mentioned above. If the place of storage is not very dcol, it is best to store the lettuce in the bunch un- washed, sprinkling' sparingly with water V it seems toe dry and tending to wilt, IIoweven, if the place of storage is cool, the bunches of let- tuce may be washed before storing. using plenty of water in the pan se as to avoid crushing the leaves, or if running water is available, by hold- ing each bunch' upside clown under the tap Each bunch should then be gently; shalcrin and placed in a clear .dry cloth to remove the surplus wa ter. In any case when lettuce is stored in the bunch, the ,stem end should be well trimmed, since presence of old leaves and steins of Ieaves hastens rotting, After using the lettuce each day and before storing again, trim off .all stem ends of leaves which have heen used. If the lettuce is tc bo kept for a week or snore, without being used, in the Meantime, it is advisable to remove the bunches of Iettuce tam storage, trimming the. ends and removing any leaves that may have commenced to rot, every three oseour days, The lettuce keeps much blMtter if the stern end is kept elean, Member oiS Florist (Telegraph.

LET CANADIANS THROW OFF INFER- IORITY COMPLEX Too many Canadians lie under the false impression that the gallant Colonel Lindbergh was the first man to fly the Atlantic. As a matter of fact, he was long preceded by Alcock and Brown, the two British airmen, who made the trip in a primitive plane eight years earlier. Just so, many of our people gaze with admiration upon what is called the New Deal in the United States. They think that the N,R.A., is a set of miracles performed by President Roosevelt. In so doing they forget that Canada has conic through the depression far better than the Uni- ted States and that it is to -day far- ther along the road to recovery, Thu „false impression, under which they labor, is in part due to the per- sistent campaign carried on by the little Canadian press, which always seems to suffer from an inferiority complex and to admire everything that occurs in the United States or Russia and little that occurs within the eonfines of this Dominion. The simple truth is that there is more for Canadians in the Empire trade treaties, signed at last year's Ottawa Conference, in the world wheat agreement and in the general effects of the Ottawa Government's policies than there is for the people of the United States in the National Recovery drive and in the other recent departures made by the Wash, ington Government. In the meantime, internal condi- tions steadily improve in Canada Last month's exports show a splen. did gain aver the corresponding month a year ago, the improvement affecting nearly all the major cam. modities- Nothing is more gratify- ing to the Government and the coun- try than the sustained business re- covery that has been under way dur% ing the past half year. The recent appreciation in the value of the Can- adian dollar in the United States has made it easier for this country to meet its obligations south of the border. The revenue from the sales and excise tax is rising. The speedy and overwhelming success of the new Conversion Loan, caps the clim- ax for Canadian good news. We have a long road to' travel back to full prosperity, but we are on the way.—Mail and Empire.
