AN EVIL BROOD
Ts there something wrong in
Kingsville, that the Recorder solilo-
quises on the evils of gossiping? The
home of Jack Miner is one of the
smaller Ontario towns, but not too
small. to have its gossips. In fact, no
plate is too small—or too large, for
that matter—for, this evil brood. This
is what the Kingsville paper has to.
say on the subject:
Of all the vices on earth the one
that is the most difficult to under
stand is the vice of gossip. For most
crimes we can find some explanation;
fur gossip there is. no explanation ex-
cept depravity or insanity. How peo-
ple can find enjoyment in snaking• life
hard for •others is one of the eternal
mysteries, The slanderous activity of
malicious tongues has caused more
havoc in the world than any other
one •viciousness.
Those . who have lived in small
communities will understand this. In
cities an erring individual may live
down' his foolishness. He may move
to ,the other side of the city and be
among strangers; but not in the town
or village. The gossips will see to it
that nothing is forgotten. Let him
reform as he may, and have his feet
planted in the ways of rectitude; let
him be hopeful that the past is for-
gotten, and he will be clissillusioned
by many evidences that whispering
tongues have long memories.

We all know that the best way to wish a friend a Merry
Christmas is to say it yourself --- especially in the case of
out-of-town friends who appreciate your voice more
than any other form of greeting.
BUT -- if everybody waits until Christmas Day to make.
these calls there are bound to be crowded lines and
delays.
We telephone operators all wish to avoid that sort of
thing. We want to put your Christmas calls through
promptly and pleasantly. We therefore suggest that
you place your oils as many days before Christmas
as you can.
A Christmas greeting is just as timely and appreciated
before Christmas as on the day itself; it is spoiled only
when it is late. So please be early this year and let us
show you how quick and courteous our service can be.
