No one can describe the happiness that is present in a child's world when that child is presented with a puppy for his or her own. Any item, which is as durable as a puppy, deserves to have its health properly safeguarded. A little planning and a little day to day care is all that is required to keep that puppy a playful companion for his young master. According to the Ontario Veterinary College, the two greatest hazards facing the puppy are a disease called dis- temper and the crushing wheels of an automobile. ST. JOSEPH'S-DRYSDALE (AL. FRED DUCHARME, Correspondent) Wishing a Joyous Christmas to April. With the exception of a all! A, Fred Ducharme. As soon as a puppy has been weaned it is susceptible to distem- per; this is especially true during the winter months. The owner will be well advised to consult the local veterinarian regarding the immuni- zation procedure when the puppy is still very young. Because of the complex nature of the disease the methods of immunization vary from one locality to another—the local veterinarian will know which method, of the several available, will work best in his particular area. Anthems sung by the choir were "0 Come all ye Faithful", "God is my Salvation", "0 Story of Christmas", "Bells of Earth A- wake" and "The King is Here." Mrs. Pearl Melick took the solo part in "His Words of Promise Brightly Shine", assisted by Mrs. Clara Jacobe. Delbert Geiger and Rev. A. M. Amacher in the chorus. The children sang two numbers, "Joyful Greetings" and "When Evening Shadows Fall". Miss Janet Gascho sang the solo, "I Love Thee Well, 0 Bethlehem". Dennis Am- acher sang "He Will. Come to His Temple" and Miss Catherine Rader sang "0 Little Town of Bethle- hem". Mrs. K. M. Breakey and Mrs. Harold Rader sang "Wonder- ful Song of the Ages." Mrs. Beat- rice Hess sang the number, "In a Lowly Manger". A trio, consist- ing of Mrs. K. M. Breakey, Mrs. Leroy O'Brien and Mrs. P. Melick sang "Silent Night". The cantata closed with the singing of "Joy to the World" after which the pastor pronounced the benediction. Mrs. Milton Oesch was pianist for the Cantata. Once again we are approaching another Christmas 'season. For some it will mean joy and happin- ess, with family reunions where good wishes will be extended to one another. Gifts will be ex- changed, homes will be decorated for the occassion, and parents will be surrounded by their children and loved ones. For them it will be a day of reverence, where bles- sings will pour on them, and it enables such families to follow the right way in life, the spiritual and temporal.

They will lose the real signifigance of this day and what it means, and as the day passes on they will increase their folly and make it end for them in gloom. In the face of it all let us not be rude and despise them, but rather in kind words let us elevate them to the highest dignity, and by praying for them they may be guided by divine inspiration to the Babe in the Crib.

Due to the extreme cold there was a shortage of water that win- ter; surface wells had gone dry, and for home use snow had to be melted on the kitchen stove. Far- mers had to haul water from a long distance for their stock. The men along the lake took advantage of the cold winter for fishing on the lake. In the spring of 1904 the men fished until late April. In the early morning they would go out on the lake fishing, then they would gather sap, and finally finish out the day seeding: The ice out on the lake five or six miles was seven to 12 feet thick, so if this present December has anything to do with a long and bitter winter don't look for relief in a fortnight, for you will be greatly disappointed. Nelson Bedard, who has spent a few weeks in Windsor, returned to his home, accompanied by his brother, Clement. Mr. and Mrs. Leon Bedard will spend the Christ- mas holiday in Windsor before re- turning to their home on the Blue- water. Weather Problem A recent report from a weather bureau tells us that not in 87 years have we witnessed a month of December such as this present one for snow and cold. We will believe that, but we also believe that the month of December in 1903 could very well compare to this one. Citizens of advanced years can still remember that fall when win- ter set in on the 23 of November, with rain, sleet, and finally a heavy fall of snow which stayed on the ground until the following Hensall Community Sale (By our Hensall Correspondent) Weanling pigs, $8.90 to $12; chunks, $13.40 to $15.20; feeders, $17 to $21; sows, $66 to $80; boars, $45 to $52; Holstein calves, $17 to $38; Durham calves, $28 to $63; Holstein springer cows, $226; Dur- ham springer cows, up to $278.50; butcher cows up to $17; butcher steers up to $27.25; butcher heif- ers up to $24.70. 354 pigs and 160 cattle and calves were sold.
