PORTER'S HILL Monday evening the annual Stew- ards' meeting was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Allen Betties. After Preaching Becomes Hazardous Occupation With their regular pester, Rev. R. W. Lee, stricken with a stroke, Tees - water United Church management ap- pealed to Rev. George W. Moore, of Walkerton to take steps to help them out of their predicament, and after) Much long-distance telephoning the Walkerton cleric succeeded in getting) a superannuated Toronto minister to' proceed to Teeswater to fill the breach, but while on Saturday last preparing a sermon for the oatmeal eaters on Sunday he was overcome with a heart attack and had to be rush- ed back to Toronto for treatment, the Walkerton Herald -Times relates. Again an appeal was made to Rev. Moore, and with the time, too short to go far afield he persuaded County Treasulrer Allan Nelseirt, who is a :former Sunday School superintendent with considerable oratorical ability, to consent to take the services and shep- herd the Teeswater flock over *.he Sabbath. Thinking that his troubles were over for the time being in this respect, the Walkerton clergyman was sleeping in the shirt of a contented man, whenhe was aroused at 6 a.m. Sunday by the ringing of his phone, and hastening thither, was almost bowled over when a message came, through the receiver that Mr. Nelson had taken a dizzy spell during the night and was under the doctor's care with all prospects of going to Tees- water off the agenda. With the Teeswaterites in need of a Message, and the hour of deliverance so near at hand, it looked indeed as if the harvest was ripe and the labourers }tet•V, when the happy thought that a Y.P.U.

An Experiment With Trees In an experiment that is expected to take ten years to complete, the Dominion Government will plant about 2,000,000 trees in the drought regions to study their' effects on high winds, rapid evaporation of moisture from the soil, and loss of snow cover. The expense of this ex- periment will be borne by part of $2,000,000 that parliament voted for farm rehabilitation, In addition same four million trees will be distributed through the ordinary channels. While a total of six million trees seems most impressive, it should be realized that if these trees are plant- ed ten feet apart, they will cover an area of only 20 square miles, which is a ,negligible two per cent. of the annual Canadian cut for pulp and paper ,alone, of nearly a thousand square miles a year. Nevertheless the experiment is a good one, and May be the beginning of a new milestone in the history of both the wheat and lumber industries in Canada.—Smith's Falls Record -News. THURS.

R. TNOMPSON Telling The Truth One of the ravourite pastimes of the so-called "cognoscenti" is saying, "Oh, you can't' believe that, it was in the paper," which comes as near to slander an er and libel as any statement which may appear. Newspapers, as far as possible, tell the truth. In fact, the accuracy of the average newspaper is astonishing when one considers the few facts a reporter or editor has with which to work and shape his story. • Webb Miller, for a quarter of a century United Press correspondent. says that in that time he learned that the majority of repartera and news- papers want to print the whole truth if they can get it. They are, he says, humiliated and mortified when they fall or are led in error. Mr. Miller says the more he studied the various aspects of any particular subject, the more qualified, theless definite and clear cut his opinion be- came, Even when he questioned eye- witnesses, persons who had no rea- son to distort the truth, each told a somewhat different story. As a re- porter he didn't tell the truth; he had to strike an average of their stories and temper it with his judgment of DE FOREST-CROSLEY AUTOMATIC RADIO y., sm3:aew uquc ay (69711 6 -Tube Standard Band Mantel, Giving 8 -Tube Performance.

"I found," he says, "that even when people with the best will in the world tried to tell the truth, they could not do it. Each one saw something differ- ent. Every man's imagination unwit- tingly distorted what his eyes saw." In the face of those facts, isn't it astonishing that newspapers are as successful as they are in telling the truth about happenings?—Kincardine News.
