they could not be so ugly. They muat
please themselves and each other, the
males must attract the femEaes and
vice versa, or they would make some
effort to improve. But their ligl*ss
is their great danger; for, unconsci-
ously, we are all 'deeply affected by
beauty and uglineest and it is testhetic
disgust which conswees the working
man that all this ft,sh is not worth
'the Price he pays for it Ask him
whether he would like is wife or his
daughters to look like that, and you
-will realize that. sesthetic disgust ex-
ists and is politically dangerous.
These people, ot.nourse, are not
atteare that anyone else pays for them;
they believe that they pay for them-
.
THE HURON EXPOSITOR selves, for they have money, and all
their lives they have been trained not
to think beyond the factof money.
So long as they have it, it means to
them the Kingdbm, the Power and the
Glory. For them the universe is a
place in which you buy things; Eng-
land has bought victory, and now
they can buy what they please. They --
do not know that they refute their
whole theory of life by the thinks
which. they choose to buy. For, if
indeed our society is of such a nature
that it does inevitably produce and
maintain them, if their kingdom and
power and glory are what we fought
to secure, ,and if, having got it, they
use it to make, of themselves what
they are, then one or other of two
conclusions is forced, upon us all.
Either our society must be changed
in its whole process so that it will
produce another kind o.' kingdom and
power and glory, or else we live in. a
nonsense universe in whioh nothing
is worth living or dying for, in which
case we shall not again be such fools
as to live or die for our vulgar rich.
But, being men with the hopes natural
to humanity, we are not likely to
come to the second conclusion until
we have made trial of the first.

"THE CIVILIZATION WE FOUGHT
FOR"
(Manchester England Guardian)
The other day I was going by train
from Waterloo to my horae, and ther
entered the carriage three young per
sons, one Male and two females. Th
females entered it at once and flun
themselves into their seats, chatter
in 1ouc113r to each other as if the
were at home. One could see tha
where two or three of their kind wer
gathered together they would alway
be at home. In this reaped they re
minded me of German tourists befor
the war, who had the same trick o
behaving in any public place as i
no one but themselves were present
as. if the place had been waiting fo
their arrival and had not fully existe
until then. The male did not ente
the carriage at once, but stood at th
door talking in a loud voice to a de
pressed -looking man who listene
submissively. He then turned, to th
fem-gres and said, "Henry is the wors
servant I ever had" *ben golly
had scarcely turned his back. B
this time I was looking at them al
with irritated curiosity. I notice
first that they had sheafs of papers
meat of them weekly and illustrated
I counted them, and found there wer
seventeen. in all. They did not rea
these papers, but flung them abou
on the seats, illustrating Mr. Veblin'
theory of ostentatious waste. It wa
further -illustrated in the clothes o
the female, for they were hung wit
vermin like a gamekeeper's shed—
heads and. tails of furry animals prett
in life and no doubt costly in death,—
the purpose of this nasty display be
ing, no doubt, to show how many an
imals had been butchered to mak
them hideous. Neither of them wa
ill -looking by nature, but their face
were spoilt by a mixture of sexua
consciousness of the males of the
own kind and studied indifference t
-all other human beings. They wer
spoilt altogether by an incapacity t
dress themselves, or to behave, or eve
to speak the English language wit
any precision of sound or command o
words. The male made me womie
what he had done in the Great War
I guessed that he had been one o
the terra -firma members of the Ai
Service. He looked as if he had neve
been subjected to any Id-nci of disciplin
or danger, and I classed him, for mil
itary purposes, as an. unconscientiou
objector. At any rate there he was
a survivor with no doubt of his own
fitness to survive, and in a state 9
rude prosperity. To do him justice
I don't think he can have been
munitioneer. He certainly had plenty
of money, and the aim of his life
was to let you know it; but someone
else must have made it for him, even
in war time.
Being a middle-aged man with a
family, I do not desire a revolution
and that, no doubt, is one reason why
these three displeased me, for if we
have a revolution it will be because
of them and their kind. We were
told during the war that we were
fighting for civilization, and here is
the civilization we fought for, here
is the triumphant product at the end
of it all. For these three young per
are not unique; when I go areng
Bond Street now I find. it full of their
kind. The sun comes forth, and many
reptiles spawn. - We are at peace
again, and suddenly there seems to
have sprung up a whole breed of
creatures determined to enjoy the
peace and express the national tri-
umph as if it were theirs, won by
their boasting and shirking. We were
told that the war had put an end to
unrealities; and now, in eighteen
months, there is the whole nonsense -
world more alive and more unconscious
of its°. own nonsense than ever. " For
these people, if they knew how, they
affect others, would surely be moved
by the instinct of self-preservation to
look and behave otherwise. But they
have learned nothing and forgotten
nothing, except the war. To them-
selves they are the heirs of all the
ages and never for a moment could
it enter their heads that they might
seem to the rest of mankind too dear
at the price that is paid for them.
They know that there are in all coun-
tries, even in their own England, peo-
ple called Bolsheviks, whom they have
never met and do not mean to meet.
They know that servants are not so
easy to come by, or so respectful as
hey used to be, because of these:
Bolsheviks. But that is all they know
or care to know; and, at present, they
an with their money, buy immunity
rom any kind of experience or
hought or knowledge that they dis-
ike, which includes the greater part
f all three. But if I were engaged
n Bolshevik propaganda I should take
eerties of working men and women
long Bond Street and ask them to
se their eyes and draw their own
enclusions. For these people are
erta.inly uglier, louder, more arro-
ant than before the war. We talk
f the ugliness of the Junkers, but
hey, as a class," had at least their
ense of duty; they worked and fought
or their own absurd society. These
eople are incapable of working or
ghtirtg for anything; they .are a by-
rocluct of our society, an accident
or which We pay very dearly; but
ever for a moment do they -doubt
hat they have ea right to all they
et. This 1 gather 'not from any in-
icourse with them but from their
eltaviour and appearance; for if they
ad any conviction of sin whatever

curred on -Friday morning, 14th inst.,

Patterson had been ill for several
months, having resigned his position -
as County Engineer in: December last

Patterson was in his seventy-second
year. He was born at Galt, and.
came to this country at the age of
five years, when his parents settled
in the Township of Hullett. He was
married forty-eight 'years agio and!
some years later removed to East
Wawanosh, where he had since resid-
ed. In addition to his farm Work Mr.
Patterson was for years a very suc-
cessful framer, and .he erected many
of the best bares riot only in his own,
immediate section but in the neigh-
boring townships. He was especially
honored with the confidence of his
fellow citizens, being a member of
the township council for many years,
and representing his township in the
county council for ten year. In. 1902
he was elected to the highest mun-
icipal office, that of Warden of the
County. In June, 1906, he was ap-
pointed County Engineer, and for
thirteen years he had the county
roads and bridges in his charge and
was known as a faithful and compe-
tent officer. When, owing to ill
health, he resigned this position in
December last, his son, Mr. T. Roy
Patterson, was 'appointed in his place.
He is survived by his wife, five sons
and three daughters. The sons are
Lawrence, David C., Peter M., and
Donald, all in Alberta, and T. Roy,
County Engineer, of Goderich; and
the daughters, Mrs, William Ander-
son, of Auburn; Mrs. G. Mallory, of
Alberta, and Miss Fern, at home.
The funeral took place on Tuesday
and brdught together one of the
largest concourses- of people ever seen
in this county on such an occasion.
A great nuenber of Mr. Patterson's
former associates in the county coun-
cil, county officials, and business men
from all over the country joined with
the people of the more immediate
neighborhood in paying the last
tribute of respect. The funeral ser-
vices were conducted by Rev. R. J.
Ross, Presbyterian minister of Au-
burn. The pallbearers were Messrs.
Arch. Robinson, Robert Taylor, Geo.
Snell, James Hickingbottom, James

it lowers the standard of our woman- ed her with a number of pieces of
hood, disgraces our sex, leads to gross very .handaoine 'cut -glass 1 anticipa-
immarality, and is a most serious
menace to the health, especially of
our young 'girls. We deplore the
practice of teaching young children
fancy dances in immodest dresses,
practically- ballet dancing, on the plea
of making them graceful, bringing
them to the public stage, on behalf
of charitable objects, and thus de-
stroying all the innocence of child-
hood. We also view with serious
apprehension the alarmingly rapid
growth of cigarette smoking among
the women of our country, particularly
in fashionable- circles, and would urge
upon all our Christian women espec-
ially the mothers, to use all their
powers and influence to combat this
great evil, threatening the moral life
of our country, and to set before the
young people the fatal consequence
of all these practices: and above all,
the great sin of bringing dishonor
upon the name of our Saviour, Jesus
Christ, who gave his life in sacrifice
for us." An amendment was added
to this resolution, asking for better
and more strict censoring -of moving
pictures.

Union Stock Yards, Toronto, May 25.—
For an hour after the opening this morning
trade was active, but afterWards the demand
fell off. Being a holiday, the market closed
at noon, by which hour very few cattle out
of the 2,500 head offered_remained unsold.
The buyers showed very little inclination th
trouble with the heavy cattle, which perhaps
were the slowest sellers. They wanted the
good to choice light butchers, of which there
was a fair number, and also goodfatcows
and bulls. In spite of the slowness of the
trade towards the end values were firm com-
pared with those which governed the trade
at the close of last -week. Here and there
small lots of heavy steers sold at 15ea per
pound, and at least two very choice light
steers cashed in at 16c per Pound. A limited
number of gpod steers sold from $15 to $15.2a
while about 40 per cent. of the butchers
offered found values between $14 and $14.80.
A considerably smaller percentage of butchers
cashed in from $18 to s13.15. The best
among the cows and bulls sold from. $12
to 318, while odd extra choice fat cows
sold at $13.50.
There was a fair demand _.for stockers
and feeders at steady prices, but the trouble.
was found in the light supply, for anything
with a semblance of fat was bought up for
killing purposes. Good grass cows also were
wanted at firm quotations. aailkers and
springers were only moderately active.
All small meats were active and firm.
The best veals brought from $16 to $17 per
100 pounds, and the best wool sheep cashed
in up to $14. Spring lambs seal from. $10
to $16 and yearlings with wool from $14
to
ogs were unsettled, with a weaker ten -
de y. -Quotations for f. o. b. hogs ranged
from 319.25 to 519.50, ,but comparatively few,

Thousands
of men went grey headed this Spring as a result of the days
of worry and sleepless nights spent in trying to figure out
their income tax report, but thank goodness the distracting
job is over for another year, and now the burning question is:
How can those thousands of prematurely grey heads be re-
stored to their natural beauty? Here's the answer
Panama Hats
They're light, Airy, and more inducive to vigorous healthy
hair growth than any other male headpiece that has ever
been invented.
In sympathy with this goodly cause we have marked this
season's stock at the extremely ,low price of $2 40.
$2.40 FOR A PANAMA: HAT?
Less than 5 dozen eggs takes home a beauty. They're on
display, now at our store in all the newest shapes.
