,SEAFORTH, Friday, July 8, 1821.

barnacles i2t Halifax harbor—..and 90
the meantime the price of scrap iron
h dropped so' that Mr aslant e
as $
could not get half of what was forrf-
erly ptfered for the vessel.
Perhaps when he is overseas he
may discover a means of getting
honey out of valueless scrap iron.
At any rate the House wilLbe de-
manding an answer to a numlber of
questions before Mr. Ballantyne is
able to get anther set of estimates
through- And unless he makes a
better success with the Canadian
Government Merchant Marine in the
next few years than he has done in
the last two, he will have some fur-
ther ships to junk, if the people leave
hint in office long enough to do so.
With the defeat of the Government
in Medicine Hat, there is s growing
tendency to talk of a fall session .of
Parliament to be followed by 'a gen-
eral election. Before going overseas
the Prime Minister warned his 'fol. -
!ewers that they must mend their
feneea which had fallen into disrepair
et..l get ready fur a general appeal
t., the gauntry. On the other hand,
.•weter, the government has given
,I„121 evidence of its intention to
•ting on until the bitter end ---and the
!eager it hangs on the mure bitter
the end. A general election must.
c'nur next year, and preparation fur
that will be the feature of the next
session of Parliament, whether that
i.. held in the fall or in the spring.
There is likelihood of the confers
idler.: in London continuing through
JuI,, according to the ureas de-
spatches reaching this country and
that means that little attention will
be paid by the government to purely
Canadian affairs until fall. Mr.
Justice Panetun has been named a
venunissioner to investigate )ion.

Government supporters are frankly
worried at the saate of affairs which
prevails while their leader is over
helping Lloyd George settle the
foreign putiey of the em?ire and let-
ting Canada struggle along' as best
it can. If the other premiers at-
tending the conference had any doubt
as to whether or not Rt. Hon. Mr.
Meighen represented all the people
of Canada over there, those doubts
must be dispelled by the vote cast on
Monday since it is evident that as
far as western Canada is concerned,
and the same applies to the East el-
so, the government represents nobody
but itself.
Along with Mr. Meighen oversea.;
there are two other ministers, Messrs.
Guthrie and Ballantyne, who are
spending the summer away from Ot-
tawa while a handful of the cabinet
members carry on the work of the
government and mange continually
to add tit the unrest which prevails
throu,ehrn.t the entire government
service. Mr. Guthrie has a scandal
on his hands over the way in which
the nubile have been defrauded
through the exchange scandal. Hun-
dreds of thousands of dollars have
been paid out by officials of tha
Militia Department to person., not en-
titled to them, without any check
kept on the payments by the men re-
sponsible far handling the public

Successful Picnic,—The community
picnic of Kippen,Hills Green and
Blake, held on Donyanion Day, on the
river flats at Mt Cartney's farm, was
an ideal success. No better way
could be thought of for the celebra-
tion of pun national anniversary. The
autos brought a large crowd of peo-
ple who spent a delightful day under
the shade of God's beautiful trees.
The girls and boys were very happy
and entered heartily in all the com-
munity games and sports. The base-
ball match, between the married men
and the single men, was very close
and exciting. Many star players were
discovered who, no doubt will find
a place on some league clubs of Buf-
falo or Toronto. The store was 32
to 21, in favor of the • married men.
At five o'clock all sat down to a
splendid supper of good things well
servo, by -the ladies and young peo-
ple, and many are still asking the
question: how is it that a boy can
oat st much at a bush picnic” The
,.ravings were kept busy, and the re-
t,-,bu,,iit booth did 'E big business
in ter cream, lemonade, fruit, etc.,
all day. At twilight all gathered
enema the organ and sheets of cont-
e or;ity •.,,ngss of tuxis and Boy
Scotus ewers distributed and a lung
to he remembered song sery ice was
held. Kon -s like *'We'll Never Let
the Old Flee Fall," 'Maple Leaf,"
"Pack up Your Troubles," "Nearer
Sly Curl to Time," were heartily sung
by y,aung and old. :Hiss Florence
Barring -ten. elocutionist, of Toronto,
gave :same fine readings, and Mr, Jas.
B Mi. Lean rendered a number of
ch'lct vieliu selections. Such a com-
munity picnic is s benediction and
blessing to a rural community where
we have far too few social gatherings
which really recreate. Let every-
body plan for a better one next year.
Notes.—Owing to anniversary ser-
vices heing held in Blake on Sunday
next, July 10th, there will be no ser-
vices held in St. Andrew's church.—
Mr. and ,Mrs, Isaac Jarrott and Mr.
and Mrs, James Grassick and daugh-
ter motored to Sarnia on Saturday.
Mr, Jarrott also visited his brother,
William, at Brigden. All enjoyed the
trip very much.—The Misses Helen
and Mae McGregor, of Toronto, are
spending the holidays at the parental
home of Mr, and Mrs, A. McGregor
in the village,—We are pleased to
state that Mr, James McClymont,
who for some days has been suffering
from a bad attack of quinsey, is now
showing signs of improvement,—Miss
Carrie McKenzie, of Toronto, is
spending the holidays with her par-
ents. Miss McKenzie is enjoying the
fresh breezes after the sweltering
heat of the city.—Miss Ethel Elgie,
of London, spent the week end at the
]route of her parents, Mr, and Mrs.
Robert Elgie.—Mr, A. McGregor, an
old resident of our village, who for
same' days has been poorly, was on
Saturday evening last taken to St.
Joseph's hospital, London, for treat-
ment. It is the hope of his many
friends that the treatment will have
gond results and that he will soon be
home again.—Mr, James Mustard, in
company with his western friends,
Mr. and Mrs.. Morrow and the Misses
Wallace enjoyed an auto trip to
Niagara Falls.—The small fruit crop
in this vicinity this season is going
to be a slim affair. The coop was
light to begin with and the long spell
of dry weather with the scorching
heat has made natters worse.—Kil-
',atrick Bros, had a very successful
barn raising en Tuesday and although
it is a very busy season, , all his
neighbors were at hand to help hint.
The wok was well done and no acci-
dents occurred to star the day.—Mr.
Andrew Bell brought a load of gravel
from the pit and delivered it at Mr.
Mollis' house in the village before the
sun w•as up one morning recently. Mr.
Meilis says the Kippen people, and
especially himself, are surrounded by
Rand neighbors—All farmers are
novo busy at the hay crop, and as
they can not -•complain about wet,
weather, it will only be a matter of
s few days when the crop will be
Loused far another year. Some have
also made a start at cutting the fall
wheat and if the yield is as good as
the outlook, the farmers in this vicin-
ity will have great reason for thank-
fitlress.—iWt are pleased to learn that
Mr. William McDougall, who suffered
a slight stroke' recently, is. able to
get about again,—Many friends will
regret to learn- that Mr. George Mc-
N.r••y, an old resident if our village,
