HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Huron Expositor, 1931-08-07, Page 4THE IIVEON C;R.'S SEVENTEENTH ANNIVERSARY was seeventeen years ago on Wed - r j lay that Great Britain declared Upon Germany. 'In those seventeen yearsa genera- tlon has grown up Nebo can not re- sn,mlber or never knew war. They had no contact with or part in it. To them the war is but history, it hap- pened se long ago. But there are other rgenerations, men and women still young, of mid- dle age and older, to whom it seems scarcely possible that so many years could have passed since the war be- gan. To them the war is still a vital, a living thing. Many great develop- ments have been made and many im- portant things have happened since 1914: These may fill the minds and 'lives of the young to the exclusion, of all else, but to those other genera- tions, no new or future inventions, no development will ever stand out in their minds , like the war and its events. To them the war was but yesterday. x4 +bled pba ia.,n 401 bh '.. farm! bits there are eitlieirs cognizant Of the fact and when t` ey have claitneii exemp- tion they have 'been Wised for rea- sons which to "The,Farmer's Advo- cate" do not appear fair, reasonable or just. Two, stock excuses are, that the owner has taken wood tram his wood - lot, or that trees have been tapped for sugar -making purposes. The Act requires that the owner have not less than 400 trees per acre of all sizes, and provided that num- ber of trees remain standing we can- not see how a township council can justly refuse exemption. 'Moreover, one object of encouraging tvoodlots is to furnish fuel; and refusal of a town- ship council to grant exemption be- cause the owner has removed a few trees is contrary to the spirit and pur- pose of the legislation. Furthermore, foresters are not convinced that tap- ping maple trees for sugar -making purposes retards satisfactory growth or causes any permanent injury. The Act s`;ould be revised and made more definite. As it is now, township councils are interpreting the Act in any way they see fit, and through these interpretations the Exemption Act is largely nullified. News of Hensall and - •c . his home in Stratford on Sunday, was heart] with deep regret by his many friends here. Deceased was a former resident of this village and during the years that he has resided in Strat- ford has made many visits here. He is survived by his wife, a sister of Mrs. William H. Hoffman, of town, and one daughter,' Hazel, at home. Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Hoffman attend- ed, the funeral. Many from Zurich and district at- tended the horse races held at Gode- rich on Monday. The many friends of Mrs. Samuel Baker, who was severely burned re- cently, will be pleased to hear that she is recovering. No services will be held in the local Lutheran Church for two weeks, as the pastor, Rev. E. Tuerkheim, is taking his holidays. Mr.. Harold Klopp, of Detroit, is spending the week at his home here. Mr. and Mrs. J. Trevethick, of Brinsley, spent Sunday at the home of the latter's mother, Mrs. W. G. Hess. Mr. Theodore Wagner, of Guelph, is spending his holidays at the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. William Wagner. Messrs. John Reid and W. J. O'Rourke, of Dublin, were visitors in the village on Monday. Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd O'Brien re- turned on Monday from a week's out- ing spent near Auburn. Mr. O'Brien's Sunday school class were also camp- ing at that place and all had an en- joyable time, Mr. C. L. Smith, publisher of the Herald, and Mrs. Smith and daugh- ter, are taking a few weeks' vacation and intend camping at some cool and shady nook along the lake. Rev. and Mrs. F. L. Howald and two children, of Elmwood, are spend- ing a week with relatives and friends here. STILL EXPLAINING Mr. George Spotton, M.P., for North Huron, is still explaining or trying to explain his too free use of govern- ment printing, government station- ery and free use of the mails, for the advertising of his own private busi- ness. The explanations started when some unkind person or rather per- sons, drew the attention of the peo- ple at large, to Mr. Spotton's meth- ods of free advertising. That is free to himself, but which the taxpayers will have to pay for, his own con- stituents in North Huron included. He first explained to the papers and then to the House and in Tues- day's Mail and Empire we see a pic- tnre of him in a very characteristic pose, explaining to the 20,000 who attended the Lennox picnic on Civic Holiday at the Lake Simcoe recrea- tion grounds, and where, according to that paper, he declared he expected to be able to live down the charges against him without any great strrig- gle. The genial George is •a big man, both in body and ideas. He is ac- customed to doing things in a big way and his free advertising of his own business, appears to have been carried out along big lines too. We don't know hour much of his own en- ergy he used up, but it is certain he had no thought of sparing the coun- try any expense. The North Huron member's excuse for furthering his own business at the expense of the taxpayers is that if he was not permitted to do the things he had done, he could not af- ford to be a member of Parliament. That may be quite true, but it is likewise true, that when Mr. Spotton was seeking re-election at the hands of his constituents at the Iast elec- tion, he failed to draw their attention to that fact. At that time he appeared to be guite satisfied with the pay lie had been receiving, and quite anxious to continue working for the same money. Of course, he mar have had this ad- vertising scheme in mind then, ex- pecting it would help out his meagre parliamentary pay, and expecting to get away viith it. Perhaps, if he had known then that the country wouldn't stand for any such thing, he might have refused the nomination. And then, again, he might not. Just what amount of money Mr. Spotton has cast the country, his con- stituents included, in printing, sta- tionery and postage, has not been stated, but in all probability, it will come to light. If any one is going to be mean enough to draw attention to it in the first place, some one also Ls going to be inquisitive enough to ask for the information in the House. Then Mr. Spotton will have some more explaining to do, both at home and !abroad. He may have expecta- tions now of being able to live it down without any great struggle, but expectation and realization .ark, tot often, two separate and distinct things.

WALTON A very severe electric storm ac- companied by wind and some hail vis- ited this district on Sunday afternoon between 4.30 and 5 o'clock. The wind lasted but a short time. Those who suffered considerable damage to their buildings were William Sommerville and Mrs. Rosie Holmes, of the 12th concession of McKillop, their fine barns being unroofed. Many orchards were destroyed in that vicinity. Colin Fingland's colony houses were turned up side down. but for- tunately there were few chickens last. Trees were broken down in the village but very little damage done. Crops are flattened to the extent that the •farmers think they will turn their stock in and use them for pas- ture. Several hydro poles were struck just south of Winthrop and Walton was without lights for some hours. '*Mr. and Mrs. Peter B.

An explosion resulted and the burning liquid was thrown over her, enveloping her 'in flames. Her screams brought her brother, Mr. Wm. Rarig, and her husband to her help who extinguished the flames but not before her body was terribly burned. The noise of • the explosion and her screams brought the neighbors to the home and medical aid was summoned. Dr. J. P.

Mr. L. R. Coles, Manager of the Bank of Montreal, is spending a couple of weeks annual bank holidays. Hensall's Seventh Straight Win.— Hensall continued its winning streak here Friday night when they took the Purity Flour Laine of Goderich into camp by a 16-4 score in a scheduled O,B.A.A. "B" series game. The team from the county town scored two in the first, but the locals broke out in a batting -rash in their half and when the epidemic was over 9 runs had , been scored. In the 4th and 5th the locals added seven more while God- erich got two. Brownlee, for the lo- cals, was the big sticker with a triple and two doubles, the latter two hits being obtained in the wild first frame. The pitching for the locals was divided between Kerslake and Howe. This was the first game in which the latter has worked and his offerings in the form of slow wade -breaking curves had the visitors guessing. Goderiah paraded three ,pitchers to the hilltop, Fritzley, `Carrick and Murney, in an effort to stop the slug- ging, but to no avail. Two squeeze plays were perfectly executed by Mc- Cauley and Cantelon with Horton and Foster on the scoring end. The lo- cals by winning one more game will practically clinch group' honors and earn the right to meet Stratford's "B" entry in the first round of the 0.B.A.A. playdowns. The boys should gd far in the race down the stretch. They have hitting strength, a well balanced pitching staff, a versatile in- field, and four or five of the fastest men on bases seen around here in some time. ( Laugh at the thermometer!
