Neilson's Famous Ice Cream McCORMICK'S RESTAURANT ThhE } ATRZOTIC COUNTY COUNCIL The Officers of the 161st Huron Overseas Battalion and men now being recrtrited were all born and rais ed in the County of Huron, and litany nave sacrificed their positions and bus- iness to give their services and time to their Empire, their country, and their Flag, A Committee of officers, a member of Parliament and Aldyoi' Reid of Godefich, composed a Comm ittee to interview the County Council and Warden, and invite them to assist in forming a Receuiting League, each Reeve to act as Chairman for each Municipality, call meetings and help recruit a Battalion of one thousand men for overseas service. What was their answer? Nn, we think the Gover nment .honlddo this, we will not ase ist in any way to aid the officers in raising a battalion to protect the l oys at the front, and not assist in br•in;iirk this war speedily to n close. When the Council was asked for a grant of money if they would not give their services in recruiting they might pay. The answer w,is the same. No. Tho G„yeinment should do this. What, Hina, we ask, is the County Colwell, but the Government of the people of Huron? Some of the members said the Towns had a lot of bums loafing around, why do they not enlist, and leave the rural> boys at-home. How about the sonsof. the town and village representatives of the Huron County Council wbo are nob tilling the land? Have they en- listed, and have they no higher ideal of Patriotism than they exhibited in the recent meeting by their actions and words? There is only one course for patriotic people, to pursue, elect representatives who are manly enough to respect the men who are fighting their battles and their sons battles and who if they do not offer their services, will at least give, in lieu of this, finan- cial assistance. Soldiers and people rally to the good old County of Huron and show the County Council that if they have no feelings of Patriotism and respect for the boys at the front, we haye. We once had great respect for the ideas of some of the members of the County Council who opposed the ass- istance to recruiting the 161st Batt but to the present time they do not seem to realize that the County of Huron is a part of the British Empire' which shouid assist in protecting and and doing its share in efforts air, money in bringing this war to a spear; ay and victorious close.. In addition to the Christmas Tree and other good things provided by the Muskoka Free Hospital for Consump- tives, for all patients at Christmas time, the soldiers in residence there were extra well looked after, being pre- sented with moccasins, fruit, and other articles, by ladies' Societies of Graven hurst, Newmarket and Toronto.

The cost will be according to the amount of work necessary and the number oflights to be installed. The Brussels Post, says: John Leckie has been re-elected to the Reeve's chair for 1916 by acclamation He will be 82 years of age, next June. but has no notion of feeling old. Be- tween service at Grey township muni- cipal board, before be carie to Brussels and his tenure of office in town, he figures out 28 years in public service in this department of work. It is not wondered at that he is a sort of ency- clopaedia at the County Council when it comes to the date of the past.

"Brother Jim left out the most in- teresting part of the story," said Sir Sam Hughes the other day, discuss- ing a story which appeared recently concerning the °bravery with which he underwent an operation to his leg When a youngster. "Of course I was brave. 1 didnt' know any better," remarked the Minister of Militia. "But the best part of the story was about mother, You know they we—) really going 1.0 cut off my leg, and the doctors kept the door of my room locked while they were pr'0paring for the opera- tion. Presently there came a bang- ing and kicking at the door. It was mother. 'Let me inl Let me in!' she was crying. The doctor, a gruff old surgeon, said to his assistant: 'Don't take any notice of her.' i3ut mother was so insistent that at last the doctors were compelled to open the door to her. She same into the room, took one look at the case of surgical instruments, and then kick- ed them all over the room. 'You're not going to cut my boy's leg off,' she exclaimed. 'I would rather see him in the little churchyard yonder.' Mother had her way. The leg was al- lowed to stay." "Get -Rich -Quick Wallingford, who was he?" asked Sir Sam the other day of his staff when the conversation had turned to fiction. An officer un- dertook to enlighten the Minister of Militia. "I haven't read a story since I was a boy," exclaimed the general. "I haven't had time since then. When I did read stories I always said to myself that if I couldnt' write a bet- ter one than that I deserved to be shot.,, _... BORN Devine Dash wood, on Jan 8th, to Mr. at,.: lirs.

The Children and the Gulls. Have you ever been aboard a boat and thrown some food into the wa- ter? There were no gulls about when it was thrown in, but suddenly from somewhere came a flock. This was about what happened recently at the Swansea Conservative Association re- cruiting meeting. Dr. Forbes God- frey, M.P.r:, was speaking, and round him stood possibly a dozen children. As he closed his address he invited the little ones there to join him in an ice cream. cone.
