The bomb has ‘been ' hanging around ever since Chairman. Robson quit the Board of Commerce and the Government was hoping that it would prove a dud in which the explosive material would rapidly deteriorate. This Aid not prove to be the case, Commissioner O'Connor taking care that such a formidable weapon be kept from wind, rain, ill treatment, loving kindness and other destructive elements. In a word Commissioner O'Connor cherished the Almighty special tidbit, namely revenge, and when the time came for Commissioner Murdock to retire, which he did when all was lost save honor, he -found his colleague not unwilling to deliver the Parthian shot. The gist of Commissioner Murdock's charges is, as everybody knows, that the Government. never really -wanted the Board of Commerce to function freely.. It was, as Sir Thomas White would say, a make-believe lion, like so many other Royal _ Commissions whose object in life is to delay, to report and to pigeonhole. Unluckily for the Government two of the Com- missioners seem to have taken their duties seriously—one because he diked the spot light and the other because he was in earnest. This led to trouble. The chairman, Judge Robson, one of Artful James' selections, was the only safe man. A Safety Razor How safe he was may ,be judged from the degree to which he carried professional' etiquette, receiving before hand the other side's brief and thus discovering, just where the strong argument was which the Board of Commerce could not withstand. Broad- ly speaking, Judge Robson was always prepared for the worst and knowing the worst, from a previous perusal of the documents, he could tell just where not—to meet it. These are Commissioner Murdock's charges— that the examination papers, so to speak, were handed out before. the -examination was held so that the man who had to give the answers would pass with good marks. The letter to Judge Robson in which Mr. J. B. Hugg, representing the Gr- -scent Creamery, of Winnipeg, enclos-, ed the factum he was using before the Supreme Court in opposition to the Board of Commerce is said to have met with an unlucky adventure. It was placed on the wrong desk and was given the once-over by Commis- sioner O'Connor who has ever since cherished the desire of placing it on the records of parliament. Up to last week the Government withheld the latter as "not in the public interest" but of course there are more ways of killing a cat than choking it with cream. Between them -'Commissioner O'Connor and Commissioner Murdock found the way, a little oblique perhaps but direct enough for all practical purposes. The withheld letter, which may have had something to do with Judge Robson's sudden resignation some months ago, screens that great jurist's face no longer. Critics of the Government, who smart under the answers "not in the public interest" whenever an awkward question comes up, are quietly chuck- ling at Commissioner Murdock's plan to prevent a letter of great public interest being withheld by handing a carbon copy to the newspapers at the. same time he handed it to the Govern- ment. This plan has its advantage— it not only prevents the letter being withheld, but it also prevents it being lost, forgotten, or destroyed. One cannot be too careful about one's letters to -the Government these days. The archives of the various depart- ments are labyrinthine and the cler- ical staffs are in such confusion over the Civil Service Reclassification. The O'Connor is Wavy. It is presumed that it was Commis- sioner O'Connor who took all these precautions with Commissioner Mur - clock's letter of resignation, largely because Commissioner O'Connor knows the Government he has to deal with far better than Commissioner Mur- dock does. At all events, the letter did not go astray—as the one to Judge Ronson did—and people who know F, commissioners saythatthe � �. � i ars both h Iin1 S 01 the CC diction closely resembles . Commis- sioner O'Connor's free flowing style. He may even have written it, leaving Commissioner Murdock to copy it out and sign his name in a fair round hand afterwards. Other internal evi- dence that a Nova Scotian was at least looking over Commissioner Mur - dock's shoulder when he penned the lines, is found in the compliments handed out to Premier Borden—a fel- low Nova Scotian who gave O'Connor his chance to make a name for him- self. Commissioner O'Connor, speak- ing as a friend—Commissioner Mur- dock touching the nen as his colleague speaks — takes the ground that Premier Borden wanted the Board of Comrnerce to do well buy that it fell into the hands of the sand -baggers while poor Sir Robert was away in search of his health—a sneaking ad- vantage to. take of a sick man. Per- haps we had better let it go at that, remembering the while. that Sir Robert had stock in a cold st9rage company that kept half a million dol;are' worth of food out of circulation last year. Consciousto the Last. It is the 'general opinion that Com- missioner Murdock got out while there was something to get out of. Thwart- ed of its functions by one court and another the Board of Commerce was in great danger 'of death by anaemic convulsions. *From this horrible end- ing Commissioner Murdock's resigna- tion happily cuts 1t off. It will die now because it has nothing left to live with—or for. The trouble with the Board of Commission was that in spite of all the opiates that could be ad- miniatered by the Government or the courts, it never lost consciousness. It was clear sighted to the last and only a few drays before it expired' its accusing glance fell on a bunch of Montreal uplifters who made -a clear million and half by inducing another uplifter on the War Trade Board to put an export embargo on sugar, en- abling them to welch on a contract with Chicago purchasers and thus get the full profit of the rising Canadian market. The only uplifter who buf- fered•by this deal was the little fel- low at Ottawa who has since been fired as a naughty little goat. M1 of which goes to show the Board of Commerce was getting "warm" and that it was 'high time that its moral glow on behalf of the ultimate con- sumer should be extinguished. The fate of the Board of Commerce is a sad warning to all make-believe lions that want to be real ones. If a Royal Commission will not roar, as Bottom the Weaver puts it, like a sucking dove it must not- roar at all. —H. F. G. NORTH HURON U. F. 0. Members of the U. F. 0; of North Huron met at Wingham on -Friday last and selected officers for the. dif- ferent -districts. The attendance was not large, but those who were present were quite enthusiastic. - It was•announced that a communica- tion had been received from Secretary J. J. Morrison, of the central U: F. 0. executive, that the campaign to raise an additional $1:000,000 for the capital stock of the United Farmers' Co-oper- ative Company, Limited, had proved a complete success, the objective being gained. - The auditors appointed were Peter McNay, of Ashfield Township, and Mr. Shortreed, of Morris. Two chairmen were chosen for each of the districts, one a man and the) other a woman, as follows: St. Helens—William Rutherford and Mrs. McWhinney. Ashfield—Murdoch Matheson • and Miss McKenzie. West Wawanosh—D. B. Murray and Mrs. A. Patterson. East Wiawanosh=-Samuel Morton and Mrs. W. C. Scott. Colborne—Thomas Wilson and Mrs. Stewart. Grey Township—Robert McDonald and Mrs. Nelson Cardiff. Turnberry—J. McTavish and Mrs. Joseph Breckenridge. •Howiek—A. '1'. ° Gibson and Mrs, A. Gallager. - Wroxeter -Dan McTavish. Wingham—Benson Cruickshanks and Mrs. James Nicholson. Districts where chairmen have not yet been appointed will be dealt with later. BEEKEEPING AND . THE SUGAR SITUATION With sugar over 20 cents a pound, and the outlook of a possibly higher price and uncertainty of supply, bee- keepers will find it advisable to pay more attention than usual to the sav- ing of wholesome honey for winter- ing the bees safely. Each colony should have not less than forty pounds of stores for winter. The honey gathered' in June and July from alsike and white clover is per- fectly wholesome and makes the finest winter stores. Most of the honeys gathered from other abundant sources in June and July are also wholesome, but honey gathered from mixed sourc- es in August and September, is as a rule, less so, and is, therefore, liable to cause dysentery which will weaken or kill the colony before Spring. Some kinds of fall honey are very injurious. However, buckwheat honey and the honey from certain species of golden- rod -and aster that grow abundantly in dry situations, if it ripens before cold weather, are wholesome. It would therefore be wise to save combsof clover honey in order that several of them may be placed in the hive about the centre. These combs should be given early enough in the fall, that is to say, about the middle of September, to allow the bees time to empty a few cells to make a place for the winter cluster to occupy. Care should be taken that these combsof honey are taken from colonies that are entirely free from American foul - breed. It will be advisable also to save extra combs of honey sufficient togive each colony one more comb in Spring, but the honey given in Spring need not be of the best qual- ity. A strong colony of Italian bees con- taining a prolific young queen often has very Iittle honey in the brood chamber when the supers are removed in the fall. A simple way to supply such a colony with suitable stores for the winter is to give or leave it a super full of clover honey. KIPPEN wanted. --Applications for the position of Organist and Choir Leader for St. Apdrew'a Churdi, Kippen. will be received -up to lu1y 3rd. 1920. T. N. Forsyth. Secretary. 2741-2 Notes.—Mr. Thos. Doig,' of Tuck- er.'ith, and his sister, Mrs. Cranston, Ma daughter, of Egmondville, are spending a month's visit with friends in iAlgoma District. Their many friends wish them a pleasant outing. W. H. Johnston, of the village, was presiding at Exeter last week, and Miss Etta Jarrott, of S. S, No. 14. Hay, is presiding at Varna this week.—The. Sabbath school of the vil- lage intend holding their union picnic to Bayfield on- Wednesday, JuIy 7th. Keep the date in mind.—The annual congregational picnic of St. Andrew's church, which was announced for. the 5th_bf July, has been postponed In defitinely.--Quite a number from this vicinity attended , service In Carmel church, Hensall, on Sunday evening to hear Andrew Boa. Mr. Boa was at one time a pupil of S. S. No. 2, Tuck- ersmith, and is well and favorably known in this section. His many friends congratulate him on his splen- did success in his chosen work.—Miss Eliza Thompson,. who has been at- tending McDonald College, Guelph, has returned home.—Miss .Helen Mc- Gregor, of the Toronto public school staff, is spending her holidays at the parental home in the - village.—Mrs. Jong Patterson, of Toronto, is visit- ing her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Duncan McGregor, of the village, andother relatives and friends.—Mr. Allan Fisher, who has completed his exam- inations at Toronto Faculty, is home for the holidays. — Master Albert Brownlee of the village, was - rather unfortunate last week, in breaking an ankle bone.—Mrs. Landing, of Mar- lette, Mich., is . visiting with her mother, Mrs. John Anderson.—Mr. and Mrs. Isaac Jarrott have been giv- ing much of their time and attention in caring for Mr. Jarrott's mother, of Hills Green, who is quite seriously sick.—Miss Lousia McLymont of London, is holidaying at her home hire. — The friends of Miss Nellie Caldwell were sorry to hear that dur- ing the past week she had the, mis- fortune to break a small bone in her ankle, which will confine her to her room for some time.—Mr. Archibald McGregor met with a nasty mishap this week which might easily have proved serious or even fatal. He was driving south of the village when a car going at a high rate of speed collided with his vehicle and threw Mr. McGregor out on to the hard road. He was badly bruised and shaken up but was fortunate in escap- ing as well as he- did. The buggy and harness, however, were badly damaged. As he 'gave plenty of road way for the car to pass the fault was not his in any way. Such down right carelessness on the part of car drivers should be punished and Mr. McGregor should receide substantial damages. VARNA Garden Party.—The garden party held last week on behalf of the Varna Methodist churc owed a grand success. The evening was fine though a. little cool and brought out a large gathering for which Varna is so well noted. The Hensall band rendered many varied sellectigns, being also • very . generous and efficient with their music. The ladies of the congrega- tion again proved themselves equal to the task as the tables were fairly 'groaning under the good things sup- plied so abundantly. The booth was kept busy in dealing out the refresh- ments,'etc., and all pronounced it to be one of the most successful, garden parties held here. The proceed s amounted to $214. Unveiling, Memorial. The unveiling of the soldiers' memorial took place here last Saturday afternoon when a large -. gathering was present to wit- ness the ceremony. After Reeve Elliott called the audience to order and explained in a few wards the object of the gathering, he called up- on Colonel Combes, of Clinton, to per- form the ceremony. - Col. Combe gave a short and vivid sketch of some of the great engagements in which the Canadians fought and won such great honor and glory. Canada was brought to the forefront as a nation on account of the glorious part she took in the great world war, and he very strongly endorsed the' action taken by the council of the township of Stanley and congratulated the Reeve on the magnificent memorial erected to the memory of the boys who made the supreme sacrifice. Ile then called on the Reeve to unveil the monument upon which were the names and dates opposite them when -they gave up their lives for the great freedom and religious liberty of our fair Dominion, and that these names would recall to the generations yet unborn the everlasting fame which was so grandly displayed in thier eat sacrifices. Rev. Captain McKegney, of Clinton, w s then called upon to perform the dedication, 'which was most solemn and impressive. In his address he told us of the many hardships which the boys had to endure and how possibly for three or four days at a time they would have nothing hot for, their meals and only what they carried with them, and for sleeping- at night old cellars possibly. partly filled with water or mud and very often fighting in the day and marching during the night with but little and sometimes no rest whatever. These were the men who made Canada famous before the na- tions of the world and whose honor we now are paying tribute that they may be so indelibly written, not only in the history of the nation but in the memories of the citizens of this township. That these names en- graved upon the monument may be stamped upon our hearts, that they -may lead us to a higher life and' to make greater sacrifices than we have ever made, if need be, to lift up humanity. He very forcibly pictured to us the hospitals of the wounded, maimed and blind and of the many widows and orphans, who :must be taken care of as a result of this terrible war.. He imu ted st la us to a better life,to an unselfish service, to uplifting uman- ity, which was so exemplified in the life of -the lowly Capt. Turl, of Toronto, who repre- sented the G. W. V. A., then address- ed the audience. He stated he was indeed pleased to be present on this momentuous oc- casion and it gave him great pleasure, though a stranger, to speak on be- half of the soldiers on this important occasion. He congratulated the Reeve on r ha township if of the to nship of Stanley for erecting such a memorial to the honor of the boys who were now though dead yet spoke in thundering tones of the great principles for which they fought and died. He particularly described some of the severest fighting the Canadians had done and of some of the tactics they employed to decoy and defeat the enemy. Especially did he men- tion, Mons, Ypres, Pashendale, where the ranks weft mown down by hun-.1 dreds and at Once the gaps were re- filled. That owing to the great brav- ery and extreme determination to Week. the lines of the Germans the Canadians demonstrated that there was -no: force could withstand their . onslaughts . and that General Foch said if the Canadians can do that we can break through, the German lines and eventually `win the war, which truly resulted in their overthrow. In conclusion Capt. 'furl congratulated the Reeve on the tribute paid to the soldiers, whose names were there en- graved to perpetuate the memory of these heroes in long years to come and that we , may carry out the prin- ciples for which they gave up their lives in the name of the lowly Nazar- ene'. He finally concluded by quoting with intense fervor the lines "In Flander Fields," written by a soldier, who later laid down his life for his country, Mr. Doherty, of Clinton, then sang a patriotic • solo. Rev. Mr. McFarlane, of Bayfield, then addressed the audience, in which she too expressed himself a; being highly pleased to be present at such an important occasion. He commend- ed highly the tribute to the memory of our soldier boys, and thought it proper and right that their memory 'should be perpetuated for generations to come, and that we should see that the principles for which they fought and 'died should be held moat sacred by everyone and that their sacrifices should stimulate us to higher motives, greater zeal and unselfiish service. Though friends of the departed may mourn, yet they have great reasons to rejoice in 'a way to think that their boys laid down their lives to save the nation and to bring such honor upon it that can tnever be forgotten. He said he : would a thousand times sooner be one of them who are laid at 'rest then to be a slacker. Rev. Dr. Aitken, of Kippen, follow- ed in which he showed as the soldiers were one family so ought 'we to be He pointed out they were as one, fought /for the same cause side by side, shared each others joys 'and sorrows. Why should there be so many different demonii3ations and so many preachers within a radius of some twenty miles of Kippen he re- marked. Much money might be sav- ed and given to help the wounded, widows • or orphans when there was so much need for it. Christ set the example and why should we not fol- low it in endeavoring to relieve suf- fering, etc., wherever we may find it and surely there is much in our own land to say nothing of our brothers overseas. He, too, congratulated the Reeve on. the magnificient monument erected to the memory of the soldiers who made the supreme sacrifice. Rev. Mr. Wilson, of Varna, then spoke to the audience. He said he had known parts of Stanley for many years back and also some of the old stand bys, though many had gone to their long home. He thought it was proper and right that some tribute should be paid to the boys, who so valiantly stood by our country.. He spoke particularly of the great Prov- idential deliverance at- the battle of Mons, where the angels stayed the great forces of the Germans, who were overpowering the British .and French that God was in the battle and stay the enemy. He paid tribute to the great valor of our Canadian sol- diers and heroes. They were, after all, the turning point of the war and, the first ` to break the German lines. He exhorted us to consecrate our lives to higher service and to cherish the principles which cost so many of our Canadian soldiers lives. The meeting concluded with the singing of "God Save the King." After the ceremony much hand- shaking and renewal of old acquaint- ances took place. Some of those present from outside points were Major Rance, Capt. McTaggart and Dr. Shaw, of Clinton, Mr. William Palmer, of 'Hamilton, Mr. and Mas. Samuel Rathwell, of Lucknow, and' Mr. John McNaughton and son, Richie, from London. HENSALL Hay For Sale.—About fifteen acres of hay for sale. Apply to John Bell, Sr., Exeter, Ont. 2742-1 ad Hensall A Good Act.—The old wooden cul- vert at McTaggart's Cemetery was replaced last Monday by a large galvanized sewer pipe. The councils of Usborne and Hibbert paid the ex- pense. The work of placing pipe and grading the roadway was done by the nearby men of the boundary. We cannot express our appreciation for the kindness of all. Generous dona- tions have been received. Some came long distances, accompanied by words of fond remembrance. Those who have neglected their donations to the free-will offering will kindly, do so at the earliest date. We must aim to have a balance in the treasury, af- ter the expense of fence and gates is deducted. This balance is to be used by the trustees for keeping grounds in proper condition. We now remind all of the meeting this Friday even- ing at 7 o'clock in Chiselhurst. Decoration Services. — On Sunday afternoon last the Oddfellows of Hensall Lodge No. 223 .met at their lodgeroom and headed by -the Citizens' Band, marched through Main Street as far as the London Road, where autos were waiting for thele and motored to the Hensall Union Ceme- tery accompanied by a large assembly of the villagers and from the country for miles around, making a long procession' of autos. Arriving at the cemetery the band played a couple of fine selections prior to the decorating of the graves of deceased Oddfellows, Sister Rebekahs and fallen heroes in the late war, for which purpose they had met. After the appropriate selec- tion given by the band, Past Master W. A. McLaren, acting as Marshall, called on Past Master G. J. Suther- land for an opening address, at the conclusion of which the decorating of the graves took place, followed by the same procedure at McTaggart's Cemetery a few miles northwest, af- ter which Pastmaster William McKay closed the ceremony. The large at- tendance was most gratifying to the Oddfellows and gave evidence of the increased intevest that is taken from year to year in the decorating ser- vices, while these services also have a very helpful influence in stimulating the keeping of the plots and the cem- etery as a whole in good order. Hensall Union Cemetery is improving every year in the way of nice grass plots and bele of flowers. Briefs. --Mrs, J. McD.
