WINGHAM CANADIAN CLUB ENJOYS
ADDRESS BY J. C. WOODSWORTH, M.P.
Mr. J. S. Woodsworth, BA,, B.D.,
M.P., brought to the Wingham Can-
adian Club on Tuesday evening, Nov-
ember the twenty-sixth, a vitalnies-
sage concerning our country and its
international relations.
Many of the members of the Club
had taken advantage of the oppor-
tunity- of inviting friends to attend
this meeting, and a splendid audience
assembled, in the Council Chamber to
hear Mr. Woodsworth's address.
Dr. Redmond, the President, ex-
tended to those present a hearty wel-
come, and an invitation to those who
have not already become members, to
join the Club. Following this, Mrs.
Jobb and Miss Jean Christie sang ,as
a duet, "Soiitewhere a Voice is Call-
ing."
Mr. George Spotton, M.P., then in-
troduced Mr. Woodworth, the speak-
er of the evening,
"Last century made the world a
neighbourhood; will this century
make it a brotherhood?" was the
question printed in large capitals ov-
er a chart which Mr, Woodsworth us-
ed in his lecture. On this chart was
a map of the world, showing plainly
Canada's geographical position in re-
lation to the other countries; circles
of different sizes on the map indicat-
ed the relative populations of the
various countries of the world. From
these we learned that Canada' is a
country with a comparatively small
population—nine million—as compar-
ed with India's three hundred and
twenty million and China's four hun-
dred and twenty or five hundred mil-
lion. This map also illustrated a
statement made by Mr. Woodsworth,
that the oceans no longer cut off the
continents from each other but rath-
er bring them closer together. The
network of steamship lines was am-
ple evidence of this fact.
During the last hundred years,
steamships, railways, the " telegraph,
the telephone and the radio have
brought the nations very close to-
gether. In spite of the changed con-
ditions and ways of Iiving, the speak-
er declared that the past majority of
people cling to the old customs, hab-
its, and ways of thinking. We in
this twentieth century must learn to
adapt ourselves to the .new order of
things. Much to the amusement of
those who attended Professor 'Hut -
ton's
Hut -ton's lecture last week, Mr. Woods -
worth quoted a speech of the Queen's
in. "Alice," in . order to emphasize a
thought—"We must .move very fast
in order to keep just where we are."
If a man's grandfather bas taken a
trench, should that man sit there,
waving a flag and singing songs of
his ancestor's achievements while the
army has shifted its battle -front to a
point ten miles in advance of that
spot? No! • If he be half the man
his grandfather was, he will forge
ahead with the rest of the army and
take a trench for himself. • So it must
be with our thinking. We must al-
ter and broaden our viewpoint in or-
der to keep abreast of the times,
We must learn es individuals; and
as nations, also, that "no man liveth
unto himself." National relationships ;
have become so complicated that no
country can suffer • isolation without
disastrous results, not to itself alone,
but to the other nations of the world.
as well. After the war Britain learn-
ed that in these days, no nation can
Punish another without being affect-
ed itself. For instance, when Ger-
many had not the money to pay her
war debt and it was decided that slie
was to pay in goods -coal, bicycles,
etc., British miners and manufactur-
ers objected.
Thus, since it is a law, not only of
science, of evolution, but also of nat-
ional progress, Canada must "change,
or die." Canadians must learn the
habit of international thinking, or her
life, as . a nation will be threatened.
As a part of the British Empire, Can-
ada .automatically becomes involved
if that Empire should go to war. As
a member of the League of Nations,
she has :pledged her word to defend
any country belonging to that Lea-
gue, whose possessions are menaced.
Consequently, unless she fosters id-
eals of international peace and broth-
erhood, she is face to face with the
awful possibility of another world
war. Then, too, not only around her
are 'nations of other races and ton-
gues, but:within her very borders are
people from almost every country of
the world.
Our ancestors, who' carne to this
country in past years were pioneers.
They hewed down trees, built new
roads, and cultivated virgin soil.
Have we of this age simply to sit
back and enjoy what they have done?
No, there are obstacles for us to'ea-
ercome, new paths of thought for us
to open up, for the sake of those who
shall come after us, for the sake of
our future as a nation, for the sake
of the future 'of the world. in edit -
elusion, Mr. Woodsworth left with
his hearers the question, "Last cen-
tury made the world a neighbour-
hood; will this century snake it, a
bretlkerhood?"
Mr. A. L. Posliff expressed the ap-
preciation of the audience and pro
posed a vote of thanks. The meeting
closed by the singing of "God Save
the Hing."
Mr. Woodsworth was the guest of
Ivir, and Mrs. George Spotton. '
CAR AND CUTTER MEET
HEAD ON
•1V1r. and Mrs. Thos. Congrani and
daughter of E. Wawanosh, returning
home from .Wingham on Saturday
evening in a • cutter, were struck al-
most head-on by a motor cardriven
by Mr. Adams of''Watford. ;' The lat-
ter was proceeding at a very moder-
ate speed just over the raise, south
of the• prairie and could no discern
the approaching vehicle or the lan-
tern held on the left side, because of
the town lights dazzling his eyes. Mr.
Congrani, seeing a collision was in-
evitable, pulled the horse over to the
right as far as possible but the car
caught its hind legs and the cutter
hurling its occupants out, and con-
tinued on into the ditch. Mrs. Con -
gram and daughter had some ribs
fractured, and received a nasty shaking
up, while Mr, : Congrani escaped any
fractures, although dragged along the
road a distance; Mr, and Mrs, Adapts
rendered every assistance possible,
feel keenly the affair, and called on
Sunday to see, how the injured were
progressing. There is a slight depres-
siori where the accident occurred, and.
a motorist coming down the grade
cannot distinguish an object in front,
from the glare of the town lights
ahead.;

on half rate at $10 per month, 3 at
$13.75' per month, and one at $10.50

sideration. In one or two cases the
applicants had removed temporarily

COLLEGE DANCE
tl delightful social "function.. of the
season was attended by over two
hundred on Thursday evening, when
the students of the Business College
entertained at their- annual dance:'
The Armouries was. tastily decorated
in the College Colors, purple and
gold, and the same color scheme was
carried out in the dance programmes.
The platform which was attractively
decorated in purple and gold, fl. or

background- for Ken Carter and his
Vagabond Kings wlio dispensed ex-

Unusual and attractive features of
the programme were a Moon Waltz
and a novelty number in the• form
of "A Trip 'Across Canada"; the hold-
ers of the tickets were Miss Eolith
McEwen of Winghan, and Mr Walt-

Nothing was lacking to produce an
evening of sheer delight, and there
were many regrets and sighs when
the last notes of "I'll always be in

NOMINATION A QUIET AFFAIR
ACCLAMATION FOR. ALL OFFICERS
The apathy and indifference mani-
fested by the citizens of Wingharn.at
the nomination proceedings on Mon-'
day evening, is not complimentary to
the men who have served them in the.
past year, nor does it lend much en-
couragement for any new men to of-
fer their services. Possibly seventy-
five ratepayers gathered for the pro-
ceedings, which might have been real
interesting, if not so hectic and ex-
citing as some years ago. Just why
this indifference and unconcern ex-
ists is not understood, for the impor-
tance and responsibility of electing
administrators of ,a concern "handling
some seventy thousand dollars a year
cnnot be minimumized. • Possibly if
the trustees of the people developed
an extravagant, wasteful system, there
might be a shaking -up of the dry
bones, but in fairness to the officers
of last year, they deserved the com-
pliment of a decent attendance and
legitimate criticisms of their actions.
This was the time to make complaints.
of policy practiced, and to advance.
new suggestions.
At the close of the statutory hour
for receiving nominations, the Clerk
announced the following:
- Mayor—Thomas Fells, (Acol.).
For Reeve J. W. McKibbon (accl) 1
C. R. Wilkinson.
Commissioner—Win. Holmes, (ac -
el.).
For Councillors—C. R. Wilkinson, 1
Amos Tipling, R. A, Spott8n, I -I. B.
Elliott, James McGillivray, Henry Di-
ment and T. H. Gibson. The first
six qualified and are returned by ac-
clamation.
Public School Trustees— R. H.
Lloyd, N. L. Fry, Orval Habkirk, T.
Y. Smith, and R. A. Currie. Mr. O.
Habkirk did not qualify and the re-
mainder are returned by acclamation,
W. A. Galbraith, Clerk, presdied at
the public meeting afterwards, which
was- of short duration. Mayor Fells
returned grateful thanks to the peo-
ple in returning him for the fifth
time as Mayor, and expressed his de-
termination to give the best service
possible. He regretted the small at-
tendance, feeling that the people
should be behind the officials in the
discharge of their duty. The town
has a brighter future than for inany
years, and to make this one hundred
per cent. effective, asked the co-e,p-
eration of every one. Gunn -Son -Ola
Limited, have made woinderful strides
in the past two years, and in the last
year particularly. They •have met all
obligations to the town, have 182
men on pay roll on Saturday last,
an increase of more than 100% over
a year ago, and are expanding so
greatly as to outgrow their present
premises. He negotiated a sale of
the Bell Factory,, and turned his op-
tion over to the Gunn -Son -Ola Co.,
who are now running both places.
He was also pleased. at the success
attending Fry & B.laekhall Ltd., who
are making very satisfactory. pro-
gress. ' A year ago. the Farmers' Fer-
tilizer Plant was thrown on the town
representing a financial liability of
$7500, The town arranged to wipe
out this in four• years, so this ac -
punts in part for an overdraft ;this
year. Contributing to this were a
higher county rate, and: increased de-
mands for school purposes.. Fortun-
ately some of thedebenture debt ma-
tures in a couple of years or so, when
a considerable reduction in the tax
rate may be expected. •
Commissioner Holmes stated the
Commission had had several heavy
expenditures this year of an except -
tion character. As a result .of dam-
age by spring floods, it was found
necessary to spend almost $1000 on
cementing power house foundation;
$3277.11 for ' a new electrical pump
at the well; and about $6000 for pil-
ing and cement work at the dam and
bridges. The gross revenue was
around $9000', while the fixed charges
on this department were $6000. He
appreciated this renewed expression
of confidence in his services, having
spent 45 years in Municipal work,
Reeve MclCibbon gave some de-
tailed information about Cemetery
finances, showing it was self-sustain-
ing. This year's deficit is accounted
for by the cost of a new well, $640,-
80, and a new fence,' $168.00. Per
maneilt Care Fund. at Jan. •lst last
stood at $5666.23, to which has been
added this year $1087.00. The first
certificate was issued on April lst,
1922, and since then 204. persons or
estates have contributed to make up
$6673.23, Whatever may be the ex-
perience of other municipalities in
dealing. with the, county councils,
Wingham seems -fortunate: While
contributing $8887.86, the town re-
ceived back for good roads, for hos-
pital, school and library grants $14,-
806.67.
•The highway from Rippon to Clin-
ton was paved this year, and there
are excellent hopes that the road
from Clinton to Winghain will be
taken over next.
C. R, Wilkinson declined the nom-
i::ation for the Reeveship, and after
brief addresses by the other candi-
dates the gathering dispersed after
singing the National Anthem.
No person appeared to say a word
about school matters, and the elec-
tors remain absolutely in the dark as
to the activity of the trustees.

MAIL EARLY FOR *MAS
The public can expect better ser-
vice, and reasonable assurance of
prompt delivery of Xmas mail by
complying with one or two requests.
Christmas mails for the West close
on December 10th, for Great Britain
ort Dacember 6th, while all Ontario
and .Quebec parcel mail should be, in
tihe local offices not later than the
17th Dec. Now, for a word for the
local post office staff, The after-
noons are completely taken up with
the four heaviest mails of the day,
requiring the uninterrupted atten-
tion of all that there may be no de-
lays in local -service or interference in
outgoing mails. Mornings, however,
are riot so congested with work, and
afford a better opportunity for the
staff to handle the mass of Christmas
Mail. So just make it a point to
bring your parcels in the morning,
when you niay reasonably expect
prompt service.,

LISTOWEL TALENT
HEARD 'OVER 10 B.P.
Ilroadcest over station 10 B.P. on
Sunday, a group of Listowel artists
presented a programme of exception-
al merit, that will 'certainly set a
high standard for the winter's sea-
son. A number of the contributors
are medalists from different academ-
ies, and their numbers fulfilled every
expectation. The broadcast took
place from the United Church, en-
abling a large invisible audience to
enjoy the fine tone of the new pipe
organ, on which Me, Hoadley, leader
of the Listowel choir, player several
numbers.
Following' is the programme pre-
sented: --

Rural Mail Delivery
One Day Later
Postmaster Musgrove has been ad-
ised by the Department.that during
the months of December, January
and February, rural mail carriers on
Routes Nos. 2, 3, 4 and 5 will start
delivery in the morning instead of
he afternoon, as heretofore. Owing
to the late arrival ofmail trains, and.
the distance to be travelled on these
routes, the carrier find it impossible
to complete the trip during daylight,.
granted that roads are in passable
condition. If however, the roads are
a bit heavy then the work of the
carrier is multiplied and longbefore
the trip ends it is impossible to see
the addresses on thea mail matter.
That the change will not be accepted
with complacence by those affected
may taken for granted, for to be
a day behind with the daily paper
will be a. real hardship, particularly
to those without a .radio to pick u.p.
news flashes. Railways have their
own system of fixing train schedules
and it may be rashfor an outsider' to
intrude, but it does seem possible to
shorten the running time from Tor-
onto and London to Wingham. The
former is about 126 miles distant and
takes five hours and twelve :minutes
to make the trip, while London is 74
miles distant and requires a little ov-
er 3 hours for the trip. Now, 24
miles an hour is not fast travelling,
compared with the rate made on oth-
er branches of the system. A little
speeding up would be greatly appre-
ciated by the travelling public, while
a return to an older schedule whereby
the London train arrived about noon
with the daily papers would be hail-
ed with joy.
