Seaforth, Nov. 23. --When she lost her balance as she was shaking a rug from a balcony at her residence, North Main street, this morning, Mrs. Hodgins fell 15 feet to the ground. Her brother, R. J.

'WHAT OTHER NEWSPAPERS ARE SAYING NO ADVANCE IN CIVILIZATION Reading' the published accounts of the war in Spain, leads to the con- clusion that despite the boasted ad- vance of civilization, the national characteristics of the Spaniard have not changed much since the days of the Inquisition and the conquest of Mexico and. Peru. -Ridgetown Dominion. THOSE POPULAR FOWL SUPPERS We thought the people of this sec- tion were pretty fond of fowl sup- pers, judging by an attendance of ov- er 500 at an, affair in Hanover, and nearly 800 at Mildmay, but we are only pikers around here compared to South Huron, where 1,125 people at- tended a church supper at Crediton, and where a record was set by an at- tendance of 1,150 at a supper in the Lutheran Church at Zurich. This would cause more talk, we imagine, than the famous story of the feeding p; the five thousand Hanover Post. NEW REGULATIONS NEEDED An Ottawa tt whose furnace a man w o burned out replaced it with a hot 1 water plant at a cost of about $450 and as a consequence his assessment was raised $300 -from $2,500 to $2,800. It would be interesting to know whether the Ottawaassessors were as quick to reduce the assess- ment year by year while the old pipe - less furnace was deteriorating as they are now to jack up the assessment by reason of the furnace which replaces it. There is somethings essentially wrong about a system which penal- izes such improvements, and it is in- teresting to note that there is likely to he Ontario legislation which will exempt from taxation, for a term of years at least, the repairs and ex- tensions to houses which areto be made with money borrowed under the new federal bank loans arrangement. -Toronto Daily Star.

It is 'a bit disturbing,: just as .we had been reading about the old negro of 116 who is living in Tennessee, to have the insurance actuaries, who, ought to know, come out and say flat- ly that no human being ever lived, to be over 106, and very few, not more than thirty in a million, ever reach 100. Insurance records and other public documents going back more than one hundred years dee cited to prove that all the tales of persons. living one or two or three decades beyond the 100 -year mark are myths. Mankind is the longest -lived of all the mammals, living longer than even whales or elephants; but it is cur- ious, at least, that most of the people over 100 were born in places where no accurate birth records were kept. Such stories come every day or two from the far corners of the earth. People believe them because, probab- ly, life is the most precious thing to all of us, and we would rather not believe it has a time limit. "The days oe our years are three- ecore years and ten," wrote the Psalmist, and for the vast majority that is as true as it was in David's da .-Ganano ue Reporter.. .

Yes, winter is here, and we are not a bit enthusiastic about it either, be- cause it was only in the end of May or first of June last that she packed her chilly belongings and bade us a reluctant farewell, We have scarcely had time to miss her until she comes romping' back again. Weather prophets may cheer us with their predictions of, a warm and open winter, and others chill us with their predictions of the other kind, but winter never tells about her plans.

THE NEW STYLES IN 'WOMEN'S HATS The time seems to have come for a minus :heart-to-heart talk about the feathers on women's hats. Some \women look very elegant in ,them? "and .some, ;.alas, look like noth- nig human; and the harassed male, once again, gets a chance to an- nounce that 'there is something fun- damentally wrong with a sex that periodically goes in for such irration- al -adornments. ...- For For it does come in waves.

COUNTER 'CU BROADCAST, "WITHIN THE EMPIRE," TO PAY TRIBUTE TO SAMUEL DE CHAMPLAIN-NOTICE OF PROGRAM CHANGES -HUGH MOLSON TO SPEAK OVER NATIONAL NETWORK "Within The Empire" halts its panorama on the shores of the mighty St. Lawrence to pay honour to Samuel de Champlain in a broadcast of- fered by the Toronto studios of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation over the national network on Friday, November 27, at 9.00 p.m. EST. The production, which is next in an interesting series depicting life throughout the great British Com- monwealth of Natioms, is offered ev- ery Friday night under the direction of George 514nssg, with a dramatic cast enacting incidents in the lives of men and women who have brought prestige to the Empire. Geoffrey Waddington's orchestra is heard in music, :fitting ito the scene and also representing the work of British and Empire composers. Champlain, subject of the current presentation, is known to Canadians as "the father of French Canada" .... the man who possessed one sit - went and unflinching purpose, that of founding a new world. For thirty years he engaged in a spirited strug- gle against greed, dishonesty, 'dis- sention and apathy. It said that no more selfless diameter ever set forth on adventure than Champlain. This story of his exploits and achievements open in a great candle=lit hall in Par- is at the time of Henry of Navarre, with Champlain in conversation with his future patron. It closes twenty- seven years later outside the citadel at Quebec, with Champlain, still the staunch, noble figure, sinking to his rest. And the buttoned shoes with fatty tumors on the top of the toes? And, heaven help us, the floppy sailor - style breeches of post-war years?, The male has scant reason to point the finger of scorn. He togs himself out in some pretty weird duds now and then. If women follow queer styles occasionally, they at least nev- er went in for, the fad of letting their socks flop down carelessly around their ankles. The truth seems to be thatthese changing styles victimize us all. We are not the rugged individuals we like to imagine Ourselves - Instead, male and female alike, we are regimented within an inch of our lives by the stylists -and all we can do is take it and try to likee it. -Kitchener Record. GOVERNMENT RESPONSIBLE' A government when giving its sanction to a lottery must realize that by ,so doing it is not protecting citi- zens, but is allowingthem to be ex- ploited. -Listowel Banner.
