THE HURONEXPOSITOR
SEAFORTH, Friday, July 9th, 1920.
tion he cared not who made its laws.
I wonder what he would think of a
country of over 7,000,000 souls who
have, or at least make no practice
y,rhatever, of singing any national
tong? Our children, instead of be-
ing taught first of all, the geography
and history of Canadth, their OWS2
country, aro immersed in stories of
Europe's past and present, neither
of them very- wholesome, to say the
least. Long before they know or are
taught to appreciate the heroism of
their immediate forefathers, •their
1 courage and perseverance in the face
of apparently insurmountable ob-
stacles, they are 'hearing of the 'glories
of Napoleon, of the different ,victori-
ous kings and queens of England.
Why not teach them to honor and
admire the struggles of men like
Champlain and Cartier, the bravery
of Dollard, the faith and devotedness
of women like Margaret Bourgeois
and her companions, the courage of
the wives of the first settlers, all
stories of clean, 'upright manhood and
womanhood?
• No need to go to another country
to find interesting history; it is true,
thank God, our *past has ,been free
from the intrigue, murder and
profligacy,, such as has made France
and England) notorious.
If our children are taught to be,
first of all, Canadians, united: in a
common bond, that of love and re-
spect and ambition for the good of
our common country, what matter the
race; the language or the creed, when
all as one salute Canada's flag, sing
Canada's national anthem and) work
for Canada's progress, all are Can-
adians—and Canada will be a better
place to live. Until there is -this unity
there will be neither strength, happi-
ness nor prosperity:
1MEIGHEN IS NEW PREMIER.
The Governor-Geueral on Wednes-
day issued a statement announcing the
resignation of Sir Robert Borden on
Saturday next, and the calling of Hon.
Arthur Meighen to form a new Cab-
inet. The statement reads:
"The f7al resignation of Sir
Robert Bor en will be tendered to his
Excellency the Governor-General on
Saturday next, the 10th inst., and will
be accepted by his Excellency with
great regret. His Excellency has en-
trusted to Hon. Arthur Meighen, Min-
ister of the Interior, the formation of
.a new Administration, and Mr. Meig-
hen has undertaken that duty."
Hon. Arthur Meighen, Prime Min-
ister -designate' of Canada, is a native
of Perth County. Born at Anderson,
Blanchard township, en June 16th,
1874, he is in his forty-seventh year.
He was educated at St. Mary's Col-
legiate Institute and Toronto Univer-
sity. As a young man he went west
and practised law at Portage la
Prairie, which constituency he now
'represents in the House of Commons.
In- 1908 he was -first elected to Par-
liament, and in 1910 moved a resolu-
tion to remove the duty on agricul-
tural implements. He was returned
at the general elections of 1911 and
1917; was appointed Solicitor -General
on June 26th, 1913; Secretary of State
and Minister of Mines, August 28th.
1917; , Minister of the Interior and
Superintendent -General of Indian af-
fairs, October 2nd, 1917. In religion
he is a Presbyterian. '
Mr. Meighen is a keen debater and
skilled in destructive analysis.
A UNITED CANADA AND
PATRIOTIC CANADIANS
Verily, the souls of Canadians are
dead—sleeping it least,—and have
been so for a long time. It has never,
in my experience, been particularly
noticeable that their "hearts within
them burn" when they speak of this
country, be it theirs by nativity or
by adoption. There is, to be sure; a
contentment or peace of mind to be
found only at "home," but that sense
of security or whatever it may be
'called, is caused more by our intimacy
with some spot, the proximity of
friends, the centre of our interests,
rather than the fact that this home is
in Canada. These sentiments can
scarcely be labelled, Patriotism.
It would seem to most people
rather mean-spirited to belong to a
club or society because we had been
let in free—voluntary subscriptions,
let us say—taking all we could get
out of it and giving nothing, taking
no interest in its welfare. It seems
to me that if we see sorne cherished
organization slipping down hill we
-do our best, make some effort to
assist it to its feet,
The Dominion of Canada is in. such
a position to -day. Iustead of one and
all being united in a common effort
to make our country of the best, we
as a people are divided, torn by petty
• troubles, each man must fight to keep
his , own. Everything is rotten—
'government, politics, schools. Look
which 'way you will, the prospects
are anything but bright. Men who
are supposed to be the representatives
of the people, who should, as a basic'
principle, have the welfare of the
country at heart, are willing to barter
the country itself to anyone at any
time, if it will further their own
interests.
The world at large is in crying
need of food, clothing; everything in
fact—within an area of 3,729,665
square miles, an unlimited: store of
minerals (iron, copper, coal, silver,
geld, nickel), extensive forests, fish-
ing grounds that are the envy of
other nations, besides being the great-
est agricultural and dairying country
in the world. Canada has immense
resources, yet these remain unculti-
vated. If the money, time and energy
that is to -day being spent in the
keeping in office of a lot of lazy
parasites and satellites, who would
be better, both for their own and their
country's good, hoeing potatoes or
digging ditches—if this output was
spent, nay, rather invested, in the
development of these dormant enter-
prises, there would be no talk of a
probable bankruptcy. Canadian money
would not be depreciating at the
rate of twelve or fifteen per cent.
This is a lamentable state of af-
fairs, caused simply and wholly by
a lack of patriotism. Have we any
confidence in our Government? We
know o-ue representatives too well for
any such indescretion. •
If we want the Canada of 1950 to
be any better than the Canada of
1920 has proved, we must begin to-
day, not with ourselves, but with the
children in our schools, the future
rulers and citizens of to -morrow.
Step to the other side of the divid-
ing line between Canada and the
United States, ask any urchin on the
street where, in his opinion, is the
ideal place to live. There'll be no
hesitation in his reply: the Ti. S. A.
is his homehe is proud to claim it,
proud to acknowledge it, and wilt
fight to support his _opinion. Why
the difference? This love of country
in an American child is inculcated in
the home, confirmed. in the school -room
—it grows with his growth, is
strengthened with his strength. He
will never be the one to go back on
his ceuntry whatever be the provoca-
tion or inducement.
A well known writer has said that
if he could write the, songs for a na-

Notes.—An unfortunate accident be-
fell Mr. Fred Preetch, who, in some
way, fell from the overlays in his
barn to the floor beneath, causing
serious injuries,. He has been un-
conscious since and is lying in' a
critical condition. A few years ago
his father, met his death by a fall of
the same kind.—On July 1st, after
partaking of dinner, Rev. W. J. Yager
took violently ill. Medical aid' was
quickly summoned and the case was
diagnosed as ptomain 4 poisoning. He
has since been confined to the house,
but is recovering. The services were
taken on Sunday by Mr. G. S, Howard
in the morning and Rev. S. Carrier
in the • evening.—Mr. Simon Willert

CHISELHURST
• Notes.—A concert and box, social
was held in the No. 10 school, Tuck-
ersmith, on Friday evening last. There
was a good attendance including many
old pupils and young people from, the
surrounding country, and although
early in the evening .a storm threaten-
ed it turned out an ideal night. The
first part of the evening was given
over to the programme, Mr. W. Pybus
acting as chairman. The pupils car-
ried out their parts in a very credit-
able manner, and some praise is due
Miss McCipy and those assisting in
the efficient way it was put on. Mr.
Charles Robinson auctioneed: off the
boxes and in is jovial and persuasive
manner managed to draw some good
prices, which totalled nearly fifty
dollars, which will be used in the
purchase of books for a school library.
—1Iaying is now general in these
parts. Whilst the crop is not more
than an average one here and there
are some excellent fields of timothy
and clover.—Harry Jacobi had a gang
of men engaged last week erecting
a cement bridge across the creek to
the back of his farm.
WINGHAM
Much Sickness.—A sickness which
has not yet been definitely diagnosed
has been troubling quite a number of
both adults and childeen in town dur-
ing the past week or two. The out-
standing symptoms- of the complaint
have been sickness of the stomach and
diarrhoea. It was at first thought
that the trouble was caused by milk
from cows which had eaten some
noxious weed while ,pasturing, but a
test of the milk failed to show any
reason for the sickness, and as some
of the patients were found to be non -
milk users this theory had to be
abandoned. The local doctors are of
the opinion that the sickness is a form
of influenza which has attacked the
stomach. Another feature of the dis-
ease has been an exezissive running
from the eyes and nose, and in some
cases it ie said even to affect the
ears. The' sickness is said to develop
very quickly generally, beginning with
chills. No deaths have been reported,
and those patients first attacked are
reported well on the road to recovery.

in Dublin, as it has been. rather un-
satiefactory since its instalation. The
delegation was cordially received by
Sir Adam and after a thorough ex-
planation of the hydro deficiences by
the delegates Sir Adam explained the
matter carefully, telling them the
cause of the raise of rates. The vil-
lage,' trustees can adjust matters
somewhat to lower the hydro power
for the village. They all congratulat-
ed Sir Adam on the fluency of his
oration in explaining to the delegates
all the deficiences connected with the
hydro power in Dublin.The directors
of the telephone company contemplate

The beautiful month of June has gone
for one year more.—Our village was
almost deserted on the first ;of July.
Every motor car was used in convey-
ing the villagers to their different
destinations, some going to Toronto

By all accounts a Dominion election
is evident in th4s near future. All

that we cannot let you leave us with-
out in some :way expressing our re-
gret, and without' spending one more
social time at your Staffa home, which
has been the gathering place of many
happy events and your house was al-
ways open to us for meetings of
various kinds. You have been assoc-
iated with' us in a public way- and we
have found your courteous and oblig-
ing and ready to serve us at all times.
Your work in the post office was faith-
fully performed; as treasurer of the
township you will be missed asi also
in the Cromarty church, which has
been your church home always., The
Staffa Women's Institute will Miss
Mrs. Harrillton and will lose one who
could help us at any time. We hope
you may find yourselves very happily

find plenty to do in the church an&
community where you are going. We
are looking forward' to the time when
Jean and Jimmie, for whom you are
planning to give all the advantages
of education, will gather laurels and
we can say "They lived in Staffa
when they were children." We all
like to feel that those who leave US
will advance and • do honor to them-
selves and also to the place of their
birth. We, therefore, ask You, Mr.
Hamilton, to accept this watch, and
you, Mrs. Hamilton this, casserole, as
slight tokens of our esteem and hope
that you will often think of your
friends in the township of Hibbert,
and look back with pleasure that your
home had been in the banner County
of Ontario. With hearty good wishes
we are, your friends.

The Late Hugh Norris.—Last week
we rnentionfd briefly the death of Mr.
Hugh Norris, and the following addi-
tional particulars will be of interest
to his many old friends in the district
where he was so Well and favorably
known: The late Mr. Norris, who
passed away on Saturday, June 26th,
was born in Tyrone, Ireland, in 1841.
He came to this country with his
parents in 1850, settling in Markham
township, York County. Two years
later the family moved to lot 12, con-
cession 9, Hibbert. In 1866 he mar-
ried Mary Horton, who still survives
him. Mr; Norris started for himself
then in Usbrone township, where he
lived till 1872, moving back to the
10th concession of Hibbert where he
continued to live till about ten years
ago. He saw all the hardships of
pioneer life. Mr. Norris was a man
of sterling claeracter, who did his
own thinking. He was councillor of
the township for a number of years
and ,always took a keen interest in
public affairs. In religion he was a
Presbyterian and in politics a Con-
servative. He leaves to mourn his
loss_ besides his wife, twelve children,
and about thirty-five grandchildren.
The children are Mrs. T. Butson, Mun-
roe; Mrs. R. Sellery, Exeter; James,
Munroe; John, _ Cromarty; Hugh,
Staffa; Mrs. Piper, California; Mrs.
John Drake, Staffa; Mrs. Keil, Robt.
and William, Saskatchewan; Harry,
Cromarty, arid Miss Eliza, at home,
who were all present at the funeral.
He was carried to his last resting
place by his six sons, the funeral
being the largest seen here for some
time.
Presentation,—The township hall
here was nicely filled with friends
and neighbors of Mr. and Mrs. T. M.
Hamilton on Friday evening last, the
occasion being a farewell for Mr.
.and Mrs. Hamilton and family, who
are leaving for Toronto this week. A
programme was carried out, consist-
ing of music, instrumentals and ad-
dresses. Mr. A. A. Colquhoun. reeve
of the township, acted as chairman.
Mr. and Mrs. Feeney and Miss Dill,
of Dublin, assisted by some very fine
music, which was very much enjoyed.

to Mrs. Hamilton was made by Mrs.

Successful- Play.—The Minister's
Bride was a great success. The crowd
filled the church and the porch and
the improvided stands that ther put
at the windows on the outside
then many sat on the fence. Ju
by the excellent order maintaine
by the applause, the audience enjoyed
every bit of the programme in spite
of their crowded condition and the
,intense heat. The young people with-
out exception took their parts exceed-
ingly well. The scene was placed in
days long gone by, and the old-time
furniture and costumes of ancient days
were quite effective. The wed'cling
dresses of two generations ago once
more did service, as well as many
other fine garments of the days of
your .grandmothers. The young peo-
• ple and the audience were both alike
favored by the presence and assistance
of Mr. Robert Hannah, B.A., and Mr.
Cliffordi Martin, M.A., of Lonthen. Mr.
Hannah assisted greatly during the
rehearsals and also kindly contributed
two splendid numbers to the pro-
gramme. Mr. Martin was responsible
for much of -the get-up of the caste,
which was unusually good, and as
well sang very sweetly on two oc-
casions during the evening. The pro-
ceeds, amounting to about $125, are
for the purchase of a- piano.
