BUY A POPPY Saturday, November 9th, is Poppy Day, a remembrance of the end of fighting in the great war, if other evi- dences were not present, lest we far- get, lest we forget. Poppy Day keeps green the sacredness of •the memory of those who sacrificed so niuch for ars. There are hunderds of shattered shells of humanity paying a living tribute for us, men unable to follow any steady employment, but who have the ability to make poppies, in the Veteran's Craft Shop, Toronto, From the proceeds of the sale of the flowers, suggestive of , Flander's Fields, niuch comfort, cheer, and en- couragment goes to these men and their dependants. The cause of the soldier is ever close to .our hearts, and at this particular time their need is greater than ever. Philanthropic organizations tltrrrughout Canada co- operate with the Veterans in the an- nual sale of poppies on this day, and in Wingham the Women's Institute are acting as sponsors, Every poppy wreath sold means aid and happiness for those handicapped mien who, despite their disability, carry oti so courageously and with such splendid results at the Vetcraft shops, -and a plea for a greater sale of these was stressed by the com mitee, ,, .-,• It would be a fitting tribute of re- cognition and respect if the Thanks- giving Services on Sunday were re- cognized by a goodly display of pop- pies or poppy wreaths. This is be- ing done in Ottawa and other cities. So, Mr. Citizen, whenapproached on Saturday to buy a poppy, just remem- ber your comparatively comfortable circumstances, pay tribute to those who made this possible, buy a Poppy, and your contribution, large or small, will bring satisfaction and apprecia- tion to those poor chaps and their dependants, who are paying the price.

Hydro ,System Gets Endorsement Foshay interests which bought out a couple of electric plants in Bruce County, and promised hydro service at less rates than, the Hydro Electric system of Ontario could offer, has made an assignment with liabilities of over twenty-two millions. Inabil- ity to sell securities to develop the various interests of the concern, is said to be responsible for the smash. Investors want ,assurance of a fair return for their money before coming across, which in this case seemed to be lacking. Hydro is based on cost -not only at the point of develop- ment, but also on the cost of carry- ing the energy to the place of con- sumption. Thus the people got elec- tric energy at a definite, well-estab- lished price, with everything in favor of a gradual reduction as the demand increases. 'au ;a;. Just what effect the smash will have on the Bruce situation is not known. At Southampton the Foshay franchise'expired on October 31st, so the Provincial Commission is taking iminediate steps for connection with the line at Tara. In Walkerton, an enabling by-law will be presented to the people at once. One thing is as- sured, however, that had these Places !accepted the Foshay contrac*, and'the financial crisis come, the assignees wotild have faced a very material in - !crease of rates. Negotiations by the Provincial Commission have been under way for a long time to take over the l osliay interests there, but no definite an- nouncement has come from Toronto as to the outcome. If no agreement has been reached it looks like a bar- gain day for the Provincial Commis- sion. Foshay interests had about $350,000 invested there and wanted $750,000 from the Hydro Commis- sion, BORIS annett.--In. Wingham, on Saturday,.
