NMOMMOVIN
Prayer For The King's Reign.
Britain's Poet Laureate, John Masefield, has written "Prayer
for the King's Reign," which appears in the official souvenir pro-
gram for the Coronation of King George ,VI, issued at London. Mr.
Masefield has already written a Coronation sonnet.)
'To God, the ruler over earth and sea,
Grant us thy guidance in the reign to be;
Grant that our King may make his ancient land
A realm of brothers, working mind and hand
`To make the life of man a fairer thing;
God grant living glory to the King.
,'Grant, to our Queen, the strength that lifts and shares
The daily burden that a monarch bears;
Grant to them both, thy holy help to give
The hopeless, hope, the workless, means to live:
'The .light to see, and skill to make us see
Where ways are bad, what better ways may be;
And grace, to give working minds the zest
To reach excelling things beyond their best,
'Grant to therm peace, and thy diviner peace,
The joy of making human wars cease;
Make wise the councils of the men who sway
The Britain here, the Britains far away;
And grant us all, that every rightness willed
In this beginning reign may be fulfilled.
-John Masefield.

some time in the near future, which
will be in aid of the debt of the
church which we hope to : wipe out
"'this year.
Our best wishes go out to another
'happy young couplewho are start -

Dr. Geo. Duncan and wife and
family of Ferndale, Mich, spent the
week -end with Mr. and Mrs. Fred El-
-0ask &lour friends.
you'll be surprised at the number of people
who really want you to have a telephone. Many
of them don't even know you but they're in-
terested nevertheless because of what your tele-
phone means to their service. Too few tele-
phones, curtails service and the value of each
individual instrument as well. The more tele-
phones in service, the greater the value to each,
user. ,From the viewpoints of both service cost
and, service scope, every farmer is interested in
seeing that every other farmer has a telephone.
NEW LOW RATES
for farm telephone service
are now in effect!

LONDON RACES PROMISE
A GREAT ATTRACTION
The race program scheduled to
take place at London on May 24th,
promises to be one of the outstanding
race events of the early season. At
the present time there are about
twenty horses in training at the oval
and no time or expense is being spar-
ed in providing the horsemen with one
of the best half -mile tracks to race
over in the country. That the spec-
tators are assured of a. wonderful af-
ternoon's racing goes without saying
as some of the best horses in Ontar-
io will go to the post in the three
different events that are carded for
the afternoon. The classes are a 2.18,
2.22 and 2.27 pace, each for a purse
of $300 and the classes are very logi-
cal ones for this time of the year.
From all indications there should be
a good field of horses in each race,
which no doubt will provide keen rac-
ing.
Barbers' Shop
The red, blue and white striped pole
outside a barber's shop has a very
real meaning. The local barber used
to be the local surgeon, where pa-
tients were bled and bandaged. The
pole was the symbol of the splint to
which a broken arni was bound, the
white stripe represented the bandag-
es, the blue the veins that had to be
opened and the red the blood.
Barbers don't do such doctoring
any more, although the enterprising
hair dresser will : suggest a scalp
treatment, the idea probably being
that a treatment a day keeps baldness
away, just as an apple a day is said
to keen the doctor` away, However,
one need not place too much confi-
dence in commercial proverbs.
The last census showed that there
was one barber for every 470 of the
population. That: is' not very' many,'
which may bring to mind that occas-
ionally the thrifty mother still trims
her boy's long • locks in the old fash-
ioned way by slipping a bowl over his
head and clipping round it.
There has been a remarkable
growth of late in the number of bar-
bers in Canada. Women with their
beauty shoppes have taken a strong.
hand in the business and have added
amazingly to the number of. barbers
and, hairdressers. In ten years the
ladies have inereased ten times. There
are not yet as many female as male
barbers, however somethinglike sev-
en thousand to over 16,000. The men
increased from nearly 11,000 to over
16,000 but the women from 660 to 6,-
700 odd, a huge percentage gain, ac-
cording to the Census Branch of the
Dominion Bureau of Statistics, De=
partment of Trade and Commerce:

Canadian imports of wheat into Bel-
gium in 1936 were five times as much
as those of Argentina. Formerly
Argentina was the main source of
wheat imports into Belgium. In
Holland also, Canadian wheat im-
ports (260,253 metric tons) climbed
to the top, furnishing approximately
55.8 per cent of the total require-
ments, as against 9.3 per cent from
the Argentine. In 1935 the position
was reversed. The Argentine sup-
plied 59,8 per cent and Canada 18.3
per cent.
