,Thanksgiving Day Ott. 24th, 1935,
We've had mild and lovely weather
for au,fortnight. '_A. good thing for
coal bins.
Nine weeks from today will be the

Mr. W. L. Mackenzie King, prem
.ier-elect of Canada, is by profession
,n lawyer, but for the past week or
• ten days he has been busy at a job

,Mr. King is busy making:; a, cabinet
which he will presently present to
eCanada as a token of .his gratitude
::for the support given him on election
-=day. We have no•doubt it will be as
handsome apiece of furniture as he's
-• capable of turning out, and we hope.
the country country will like it.

Governor General - elect, ' Lord
Tweedsmuir, didn't want to have as
lhis first duty in Canada the swear-
3ng-in of a new premier, so he 11as de-
tided to postpone his sailing until
'the, 25th, ,and will be greeted' by
'Premier NO. L. 'Mackenzie King and
' 'members of his cabinet at Halifax,
Mr. King being 'aworn-in by Sir Ly-

Today is Thanksgihvng Day, the
-••day set apart 'by the Dominion Gov-
. ernment
ovY:ernnent for general thanksgiving for
the material blessings orf the year.
It would be an ungrateful soul who
aoould not find some reason to return
thanks in this year of our Lord 1935,
although there are many in this land
• who may feel that they have very lit-
tle cause for thanksgiving. But it
might be well if we el should begin
• to count our blessings,
A story was published at the time
of the departure of the vice -regal
family from Canada that Lord Bess -
borough shed tears on leaving Ot-
tawa. Be that as it may, we saw a
'Picture of the family whet' it arrived
eat Waterloo station, London, and the
late Governor-General of Canada
' looked happier than ever we saw
- J ent look while here. He had a smile
which was never shown in any pie-
• tore shown of him in Canada. We
believe that he was delighted to re-
• turn to the British Isles, no matter
now many friends he, left here,
A Brantford .man threshed his wite
when he found that she had 'voted
Conservative instead of Liberal, as
he had instructed her to do. And
then You Will hear people saying
-°that women should exercise the fran-
el ise. You can hardly blame a wo-
man for making some excuse for not
••'voting if she knows that the exercise
.of her privilege may mean a` thresh-
•' ing from Friend Husband. But what
we 'can't understand is why a Liberal
' husband became so erose aboue a lit-
tle thing like that. What difference
- would another vote have made? Now
if some Clinton Conservative had
discovered that his wife had voted
'Liberal thus cutting down the usual
Conservative, majority there might
have been some excuse for an exhibi-
tion of pee'Y ishness.
Already the opposition press is
Jointing out that the Liberals were
;,elected on a minority vote, that each
Liberal was elected on a much sura!-`
'tier vote than that regained to elect
an opposition •member. According to
unofficial returns the Liberal votes
Were 309,000 fewer than the votes
east against them. This 'sort of thing`
happens. in any election where there
Aare more than the two parties run
nm and in' the last election there
were a great many parties and an
•extra large number of candidates,
, ;which tended to divide the vote. And
• as the winner is the one who 'has
more votes, if it is only one or . two,
than. the next dargeet vote, in th
majority of cases the opposition Vote
is the largest. This was the ease in
North Huron,` but not in Hurons
Perth. In the latter the winning
•candidate, Mr, Golding, , had a sub
'stantiai enejority over all, -
" However;''; although the opposition
•"likes to console itself with the id `ca
" th'at'the winning party .has a, minor-
it of votes "lee Winners . Y ,,, ,t , wenn s doe not war•-

ler, this is the third time it is the
first time he has had a clear majer-
ityin the house, On the two previous
occasions he had to depend upon
various groups for swport', Ties
is matter for congratulation for both
MT. King and, the country at large.
In Canada we believe that it is best
to electa government with a •suffi-
cient nnajority to enable it to carry
out the projects it .has' in mind, then
held it responsible for its enact-
ments; 'Where group government
prevails nobody is responsible, - In
the present case the government
majority will ,be if anything, too
large, but so the sovereign people
willed.

was well presented by Gordon Elliott,
Bill Pepper, Citizenship convenerbe-
ing in charge of that . part of the

the leader pointed out that there are
three hindrances to "Straight Think-
ing." These hindrances are family
prejudice, political prejudice and re-
ligious prejudice. A. spirited discus-
sion followed, which revealed the fact
that all were deeply impressed by
the way .in which the leader handles
the subject.

NEWS IN BRIEF
It is :believed that the danger of an
European war, is diminishing, as the
League endeavors to .straightenout
the tangle. Britain makes it plain
that she will not act without the
League, but her representatives are
working hard to bring about 'a settle-
ment of the dispute between Italy
and Ethiopia.
In the meantim , while diplomats
confer and governments try ti,mete
peace, Italy is certainly gaining ev-
ery' day in her conquest of Ethiopia
and no doubt when she sits down to
discuss; peacewill have an advantage
which she did not possess before the
war started.
The King Government will take
over the reins late Wednesday, when
Premier Benuett resigns, handing his
own and his ministers' resignations to
Sir Lyman P. Duff, with the recom-
mendation that Me. King be asked to
form a government. .
The Quebeo "Power Barons," came
up to Toronto Tuesday to confer with
Premier Hepburn, when it was deeia-
ed to postpone for a time at Ieast the
cutting off of power from Quebee.
New contracts may be made. There
is a decided disinclination in all sides,
it would appear, to the repudiation
of bhe contracts.

THANKSGIVING AT FERGUS
SET FOR OCTOBER 28
Merchants of Fergus had their re-
quest for a change in the state of
Thanksgiving •granted at a special
meeting of the Fergus Council last
week, when a petition, largely sign-
ed by the business men of the town,
asking that Monday, October 28, be
set aside as the holiday instead.' of
Thursday, October 24, was, presented.
A mix-up in the observance of the
holiday is almost certain to occur
when the banks will take Thursday
as the hailday along with the schools
wind a percentage of the 'workers in
one of the large factories, but they
will try it out, anyway.
TWO-DAY SEASON FOR
SQUIRRELS
Two days •open season for black
and grey squirrels -Thursday, 'Oct,
24th and Friday, 0'ot. 25 --in that
section of Ontario lying south of the
French and Mattawa rivers has been
authorized by an order -hi -council of
the Hepburn Government. Hunters
will be limited to it bag of 5 squir-
eels per day. A.11 squirrels taken
must either ' be used for food or
mounted as trophies, The squirrel
•season -the' first general season of
this type of game in many years-
was only one of a number of hunting
regulation changes.
PORT ELGIN PUTS $100 TAX' ON
SLOT MACHINES
With the intention of suppressing
the rapid increase in the number of
slot in'aohines and games of chance
in places of amusement in Port El-
gin, and with a view to their possible
elimination,the council were unan-
imous that the clerk be instructed
