The art exhibition in Miss Clara
H. Mounteastle's studio is not only
an exceedingly meritorious and at-
tractive display of works of art, but
is an exhibitin which should be one
of the permanent institutions of the
town. To make it such requires the
financial support of the townspeople,
and we should be sorry if for lack
of this the exhibition should be with-
drawn.
There was a flurry of snow on
Monday.
Thursday, Nov. 21st, has been fixed
on as the date for Thanksgiving Day.
Miss Maud Goodwin has, been ap-
pointed organist for the Baptist

lini's aggressive attitude to E:thopia,
the Press was full of comparisons of
the British and Italian air forces.
What seemed to be overlooked was
that the British Government had re-
peatedly announced that while they
would back collectiye action to en-
force the . League Covenant, they
would not act alone. If, therefore,
the British navy supplied the naval
force necessary to restrain Italy, it
might reasonably be expected that
other nations would contribute the
required` air power. And both France
and Russia have stronger air forces
than Iitaly. The appearance of Rus-
sian fighting planes at some point in
the Eastern Mediterannean would
settle the question of air supremacy
in the neighbourhood of the Suez
CanaL If the. • League of Nations
holds together Italy will be.hopeless-
ly overmatched,. And this is the real
way: to prevent war.
WANTED MARRIAGE` LICENSE
BOUGHT A GUN LICENSE
High' pressure„ salesmen have
nothing on Constable Moore, who
last week was applied to for a mar-
riage license and being unable to
fill the order, proceeded '• to sell Dame
Cupid's victim, a gun license,
Whether the wedding bells that
were "ringing" so loudly here last
Thursday, had anything to do with
this sale ornot, one cannot' tell, but
it•was-during the festivities of this
occasion that a young couple from
a neighboring town made application
to Constable Moore for the document
that would permit them to make the
fatal leap,
Unable to accomodate this "nice
Young couple" as they appeared to
Mr. More to be• the latter solicited
the aid of the village clerk, to sup-
ply them with a license, but alas,
Cupid Inas been so busy here in re-
cent weeks, that the clerk was fresh
out of the legal forms.
Upon learning this, Mr. Moore in-
formed the intended groom that the
only license he could get in Luck -
now that day was a gun license, and
pronto he purchased one from the
flabergasted Chief and left for . an-
other centre to procure the marriage
license.-Lucknow Sentinel.
From The New Era, Oot. 6th, 1910:
Snappy Sandwiches:, -Nasturtium
sandwiches are snappy pard appetiz-
ing. Pick fresh flowers, take off the
stems and crush them between thin
slices of bread which have been
spread with cream cheese. A little
salt and paprica may be added. The
stem also minced very fine may be
used the same wayand the seeds,
while they are fresh and green.
(This might have been all right
twenty-five years ago, but these
lovely flowers are now polluted with
a nasty black bug, which puts a bar
on eating them, even having them
in the house. Folk used to pickle the
seeds, which many liked very much,
and , we have seen many a salad de-
corated with a few of these lovely
blame, before those pesky bugs
came. -Ede

90 -YEAR-OLD MAN WORKS AT
HIS TRADE
Although in his ninetieth year,
Wm. Humphrey of Atwood is stiil
busy at his trade as a wagon and
carriage maker, and only this week
completed a pair of bob-sleighs,these
being `rade out of oak and rock elm,
and still showing the marks of a
master workman. On March 20 next
he will reach his nintieth ,birthday,,
and at present is enjoying the best
of health-Wingham Advance -Times.
DRIVES "SPAN" OF CALVES
Lyle Lannan, the young son of Ms.
T. J. Lannan, of the 9th concession of
Adhfieid, is the proud owner of a pair
of shorthorn calves • which he has
broken to both harness, and saddle.
He drove them to Currie's Cor-
ners 'school fair on Tuesday, • a ;dis-
tance of four and ahalf miles from
his home. They were decked out in
complete harness, gathered from bits
of horse harness and fitted to their
small size. They were ,hitched to a
two -wheeled rig and moved along
very smartly 'under the :direction of
the young owner.--Goderich Signal.
• A MAN-MADE QUILT
• Although it was not on exhibition
at the Goderich Industrial, a quilt
made by a mere man, which was
shown' to Tho Signal the other day,
night well have taken a prize there.
It was a 'creation in canary and
white broadcloth, containing 1212
patches (we didn't' chunk them),
made in the Golden Gate pattern.
The maker was Mr. James MeK. Ad-
ams of Colborne township. who • did
the work all by ,himself last winter,
when he was laid on the shelf with
arthritis . So far as we could judge.
it was just . as good a quilt as ever
was made; but we hope M. Adams
will never have to put in another
winter on such work.

BODYGUARD
Lorne Hedy, editor of The St.
Marys Journal -Argus at a Rotary
luncheon in Toronto recently was
seated between the manager of a de.
tective agency and the general man-
ager of a company which manufac-
tures pink pills for pale people. It's
really surprising how some of these
country editors are looked after when
they visit Toronto

SQUIRREL TRAGEDY
A. squirrel was the loser in a grim
tug-of-war with life as the stake one
day this week. The squirrel was a
little too slow in his dash for a post
when pursued by a terrier pup, little
bigger than itself. The pup sank
his teeth into the squirrel's tail and
hung on like death as the squirrel
tried to climb the post. The weight
was too much, for the squirrel, but
the dogwas yanked from his feet.
several times during a see -saw tug-
of-war. The dog and . the tail he
gripped outlasted the squirrel's
strength and as the victimof the at-
tack dropped exhausted from the
post, 'the dog pounced for the kill.

THE REAL WAY

tions between Italy and Great Brit-
ain over the leadership whichthe
latter nation was giving in the
League of Nations against gesso.
PREMIER BENNETF'S GOOD
EXAMPLE
Premier Bennett's personal refer-
ences to Mr. King in his ' radio
speech last night were such as it is
pleasing to hear from the lips of a
leader: "When I speak of my deep de-
sire to serve you, 1 do not intend to
suggestany difference between Mr,
King and myself; he also wishes Your
welfare." And again: "I wish espec-
ially to acknowledge the kindness
and consideration of Mr. King dur-
ing my illness. However vehemently
I. may condemn his whole economic
philosophy, I. shall not forget his
kindness and 2 shall not cease to be
grateful for it." Such utterances
are a tribute to Mr. Bennett as well
as to. Mr. King. --Toronto Daily Star.

MISTAKEN IDENTIY
There were quite - a number of
young ladies in town this week from
other places nearby, and one of them
must have borne a striking resem-
blance to a Fergus girl. ' If we are
to believe all we hear. This lady, all
dressed up in her best was standing
on the corner of the post office,. wait-
ing for friend to come along with
her ear.' Mere than one young man
from town, glancing at her casually
in passing said: "Hello, Mary,"' or
some such salutation. (Mary wasn't
the 'name by the way.)
Finally, a man who. works in the
same office came along and walked
up to the stranger. "I see you're all
dressed up, Mary. Who are you step-
ping out with to -night?"
'Suddenly he noticed his error and
apologized profusely, but that visi-
tor frust wonder what the men of
Fergus are like anyway.

CENTRALIZATION OF UNIVER-
SITY GRANTS IS OVERDONE
Centralization of industry, of fin-
ance and of government in Ontario
has resulted down through the years
in making a big city out of our pro-
vincial capital. The smaller cities,
the towns and townships are feeders
for Toronto. Much of the money that
passes through the hands of the rural
businessman must be forwarded to
Toronto to meet bilis for ,merchan-
dise, fire and 'life insurance, taxes
and whatnot. ' Centralization makes
for efficiency in many things but we
believe that in some ways we are
getting too much centralization at
the present time. For instance, in
government. Municipal authority has
become largely a thing .of the past,

fieials is now handled by high -salar-
ied officers at Queen's Park.
Another field in which we appear
to be suffering fronri too much' cen-
tralization is in our university sys-
tem. Toronto University, of which
we are all proud,' haus grown until it
is almost unwieldly. It is a great
university and the City of Toront
profits greatly from it financially as
well as in other respects. The ma-
jority of the students in attendance
are from Toronto and nearby district.
With our steady increase of popula-
tion and resources other ,smaller um-
versities have developed to meet de-
finit needs. At London we have the
University of Western Ontario, which
is .most favorably situated away
from' a crowded centre, as a univer-
sity should be. Western serves well
its constituency and stands high le
academic standards. This university
has received, a small grant from the
Provincial Government ,for some
years which in these days of economy
has been cut still smaller, chief eon
sideration being given to the Univer-
mity of Toronto.'
It appears to be time that the gov-
ernment's financial aid to our univer-
sities be readjusted and that the City
of Toronto give substantial support
to its university as the city of Lon -
