It does not mean that we' dislike them, in fact we 3nay be very fond of them, but they man- age to rub us the wrong way. It may be some one with whom, by force of circumstance, we are forced to live; or we may come in contact with them in the daily round of earning our liv- ing; or we may comae in frequent con- tact with then in our church work, or in some organization .in which we arse interested. Try looking on 'them, as'if they were a character in a book If this same person, in a book, con- tinually did these irritating things, we would think they were, very amusing, and the character true to life. When you come in contact with these peo- ple turn over a new page in: your book and expect these characteristic actions. It is hard to be amused and annoyed at the •same time, Let am usement get the upper hand and life will be ,easier to live. Try this little stunt. It will . work. Feeding the Teeth It was thought, for many years, that when the teeth were once formed nothing could be done to improve the structure. Caries, or dental decay, has always proved a source of trouble in the modern mouth. Deep the beetle clean was preached on all sides. In- telligent observers knew that this was not sufficient to prevent decay. Fre quently very clean mouths had •many decayed teeth and dirty mouths often contained very sound teeth. Cleanli- ness was not ,enough. Attention was turned to the diet, and ti was found that a liberal amount of calcium and vitamin C would prevent decay. This is beyond the experiment stage and has been proved repeated- ly, In children's homes where a change has been made in the diet, where then have been many decayed teeth, decay already present has been arrested, and new decay prevented, This has been done in indiivdual cases and X am going •to tell you of one of them. A small boy had very poor first teeth. His, mother had not taken any precautions before he was born, as her doctor had not suggest- ed it. By the time he was five, sev- eral eweral of his teeth were extracted and many more were filled. He .. was in constant need of • dental attention. About this time, his mother learned of the experimental work being done with diets, and decided to try it out. Each day she saw that the little lad had his quart of milk, at least one leafy vegetable, such as cabbage, let- tuce, spinach, celery or cauliflower, and cod-liver oil, and foods high in vitamin C, such as tomatoes, oranges, and lemons. These were added to a diet already rich in fruits and vege- tables. The result has been that at. eight, he has had no dental work done for a year and .a half, and his second teeth are strong and sound. What About Candy The question is often asked, should children have candy. The answer, ,Yes and no. Yes, if it is given at the proper time, which is at the finish of a• meal. No, if it is eaten between meals spoils the appetite for the next' one. Simple candies should be chosen for children. Rich chocolates with in-. digestable centres are not suitable candies. One doctor says that he de- rives a considerable income from chocolates. Pennies should not be given to a child to spend indiscrim- inately. . We are all familiar with children who have spent their money on candy and then are unable to eat their meal properly. In a short time they again become hungry, crave sweets, but let them have them at the proper time. Baked Halibut with Tomato Sauce 2 pounds halibut 2 craps tomatoes 1 cup water 1 slice onion 3 cloves x tablespoon sugar 3 tablespoons butter 3 tablespoons flour teaspoon salt 118 teaspoon pepper Cook twenty minutes tomatoes, wa- ter, onion, cloves and sugar. Melt butter, -add flour, and stir into hot mixture, Add salt and pepper, cook ten minutes, and strain. Clean fish, put in baking pan, pori- around half the sauce, and bake thirty-five min- utes, basting often. Remove to hot platter, pour around- remaining sauce and garnish with parsley. Panned Oysters Cream one pint large oysters. Place in dripping pan small oblong pieces of toast, put an oyster,oe. each piece, sprinkle with salt and pepper and bake until oysters are plump; Panned oysters without the toast are a favorite for luncheon or sup- per on a reducing diet.

The revenue and expendi- ture for eleven • completed months ending February 28, reveal the diffi- culties of the Finance Minister, who isalso the Prime Minister. The or- dinary receipts in the that period were $322,729,407, a decrease of $79,- 353,366 compared with the corres- ponding eleven months in the prev- ious fiscal year, and the ordinary ex- penditures were $331,243,130, com- pared with $310,148,104, an increase of $21,095,076. In the fiscal year end- ing March 31 last the ordinary, rev- enue was $441,411,806 and the ordin- ary expenditure $357,779,794. This surplus of $84,000,000 has been con- verted into a deficit of nearly $9,000,- 000 in the past eleven months, and it will bemuchgreater at the end of the 12 -months' period, when the 'ex- traordinary and capital expenditure for the year is added. The measure of the- difference may be seen in the figures of the national debt. On Feb- ruary 28, 1930, it stood at $2,156,276,- 098. On February 28, 1931, it stood at $2,207,895,964, an increase of $51,- 619,866. After declining steadily for years it is now rising rapidly. The present Government will have to find about $150,000,000 more in the next fiscal year than the amount of its revenue in the fiscal year which ends March 31 if it is to keep all its election pledges and avoid a deficit. The income tax is the only tax thati has yielded more this year than last year, so that Mr. Bennett could not, if he would, abolish it. The yield from customs taxation will continue to de- cline because it is the Government's policy to shut out British and foreign products upon which duties are paid. Postal rates, excise duties and sales tax must be increased or a new -source of revenue found, The turnover tax is the only untried levy in sight, Mr. Bennett has made speeches in its fa- vor, but the business community dis- likes it and prefers an increase in the sales tax, which Mr, Bennett has de- nounced, The next budget will be the most interesting since wartime, and probably the most burdensome. BANK OFFICIALS HURRY TO GET CHURCH COLLECTION ' Many people were greatly incon- venienced Sunday 8th inst. when away' from Fergus visiting friends. Several were also stalled in Fergus and had difficulty in returning in time to their respective duties. To show what an effort some made we might mention that Mr. Grimes, acting manager of the Imperial Sank here, and two others of his staff. Mr. Grimes and his accountant were vis- iting in the Niagara district. They got as far as Guelph and walked from there to Fergus, as the roads were impassable for cars, taking six hours to make the distance. i'Ir. Grosskurth, the teller, was at Grand Valley, about the same dis- tance away, and thinking the others would be stormstayed, and the bank must be open in time on Monday, walked the distance, facing a bad storm., in eight hours, They were a pretty tired trio of men when they peached Fergus.--News-Record. NOW WE'LL HAVE RADISHES. It is 'a delightful thing to live am- ong. and have to 'do with folks who want to help and be of some assist- ance, People just naturally sort themselves into two .classes, (1) 'those who know of trouble, and simply say, "hard' luck," 'and (2) those who be - 'carne aware of the condition and then scamper off to render first aid. By way 'of illustration let us place W, A. Galbraith, Clerk and Treasur- er of Wingham in the latter class, Mr. Galbraith read on this page some days, agothe' expression of editorial. doubt about raising radishes and, such things so they would look like the sort that appear in the seedcata- lopes. He was not content with an unsympathetic grunt, but lie polled himself iup int' front of his typewriter and proceeded to te.tl how the thing should be done PA ore P�werful and always.r ori.

LIKE its strong, durable chassis, the new Chevro- let's valve -in -head, six -cylinder motor is excep- tionally rugged and powerful. You can depend on its sure, steady flow of power to carry you easily through sand and mud, or up the steepest grade. And nothing less than a Chevrolet Six is so smooth, quiet and restful at all driving speeds. It takes six cylinders to give the comfort and freedom from vibration you will be quick to appreciate in this new Six.

CRAWFORD Dealer - Wingham From Mr. Galbraith's letter we take the privilege of quoting: "Just pre- pare a bed say 3 feet x 4 feet and place boards around the edge so that they project upward about two or three inches above the ground sur- face. Fill the hollow with common sawdust. Plant the radish seeds about one-half inch deep in the sawdust. Keep the sawdust moist by sprinkling' regularly and you will be surprised to see real catalogue radishes free from bugs or fleas. Try this plan and I fel sure you will be delighted." We are pleased that Mr. Galbraith mentioned a patch about 3 x 4 feet around which there must be that lit- tle wooden railing. If it were much larger it would call for considerable ingenuity. in securing the lumber; it would need a plane, a hammer, some nails and a saw and perhaps a mon- key wrench and a screw driver to make the pen. We feel sure, though, we can get enough timber off the back fence to build that little 3 x 4 enclosure. Then we can get a bag of sawdust from Harry Strudley or D. Wright and all we'll need to pay for is the radish seeds. We begin to scent success in the plan and already we: dimly under- stand the scheme. The planks may he for keeping the sawdust in and also for keeping the bugs and fleas out. Also, we take it, the appearance of the sawdust will fool them. They will say among themselves, "this is nothing but a dumping of sawdust; no good gardener would place such material in his plot:" They will run along elsewhere. If the scheme is generally adopted in this city it might be that the bugs and fleas would fin- ally leave the community entirely. This sawdust business may yet rid us entirely of fleas and bugs that nibble at the leaves and punch holes in the finished article. It was a MacBeth from Milverton. who showed us how to grow ane big turnip out of a whole package of seed, and now comes a Galbraith from Wingham to demonstrate the produc- tion of prize radishes.
