Editor of The Huron Expositor,
Dear Sir: The farmers' picnic will -
be held next week. We shall endeay.
our to combine business with plea-
sure. In these critical hours the de-
mand that is placed upon our shoul-
ders by thepresent system of govern-
ment through heavy taxation on
every article we sell and buy. is go-
ing to put crops, poultry, etc,, upon a
dead 'market. Without the money
our city labor buyer is Unable to buy
oneefifth of the poultry, oatmeal and
ground wheat, pork, beef, ete., that
he could use normally if he was a
busy man. The next four months
will place thousands of farmers in a
position where they will be bank-
rupt . trying to markets these goods,
which they grow to meet some press-
ing obligation which they have' fac-
ing them.
Just imagine that every loan our
government put through is putting a
lien on your property, as this money
will' have to ceche out of the crops
you grow in the next 50 years through
taxation. Do you realize just howl
serious this matter is? Most every-
one of you halve money invested. in
farm and city property, either direct-
ly or indirectly, and you should 'do
less street -corner talk and more busi-.
ness.
Just think for one moment: Would
you hire a gang of men for a four-
year term to run your farm or busi-
ness with the right to buy cars, have
big banquets, protect all the manu-
featurers you buy froth, allowing
them the privilege of adding just
what pro:fit they desired to charge?
And all this done after the boss him-
self had promised to protect you and
get you big markets for your farin

find his clothes, so came to the con-
olusign that he had gone to some of
the neighbors, 'but when midnight
came and he had not returned, Mr.
Foster went to the neighbors but he'
had not been there, so the neighbors
and Mr, Forster went back to the
river and found the young man's•
clothes, but the body was not recov.
eyed till some time Sunday morning.
He was a young man that was well
liked, and was taking part in as play

Dear Sir: Derby day in England
from the viewpoint of a Canadian,
might be of some interest to youe•
readers. Derby, or Darby day, caJt-
ed as one humorist put it, "Darby
when you win, Derby When you lose,"
however, it is a great day for Eng-
lishnien, namely when the one and
one-half mile is run, by the fin•esrt
three -year-olds, that can be produced
in England.
Flat racing it is called. We call
it ih Seaforth, a running race. It i=
racy on a semi circular turf track
(green grass). Being semi circular,
unlike onr circular tracks whence one
can see the start and finish, the huge
four -tier grand stands are placed at
the finishing point; the starting of
the horses can only be seen at :r
distance
Epsom .is a small toren within 20
miles of London, and of course on
Derby day the population becomes
over one million, it being estimate,'
by the newspapers here, that over
one million people a:tended this
year's Derby.
Huge doable -decked busses, char-
tered by private parties. loaded witri
eats and drinks, .come down from
London. On entering the grounds
they take their stand, side by side,
facing the track, and fifteen hundred
of these vehicles enter the grounds
alone and with thousands of motor
cars, the whole makes quite' a form-
idable' array of vehicle:, From the
top of the busses a fine view of the
races can be had, but re they are ali
private and side by singe with their
radiators up against the race track
Bence, it makes seeing the rates for
the thousands of people behind them
rather a conundrum.
I did not take a geand stand seat
but mixed with the crr,wds inside of
the grounds; all 'classy, of humanity
represented, singers w•i;h the quaint-
est and old fashioned musical instru-
ments, Cockneys with their typical
pearl button •suits (clothes covered
with pearl buttons r, Tipsters giving
tips, good and bad on the races for
a renumeration; hundreds of games
of chance; in fact, in the huge
grounds not a twenty.root srauary; of
land free of sornethting or other could
he Mond; numberless Purblicans (sa,
loons) .'under cover selling all kinds
of drinks, and strange to say. I did
not, among that great crowd, see one
drank man or woman.
Another thimp we in Canada haste
.discarded are bodkies but here they
are everywhere, hlackl oards with the
odd chalked up, and the ,business they
MONISM, ITS OBJECTS
AND ITS PRIEFITS
TO ANY COMMUNITY.
An Address Delivered Be-
fore the Seaforth Lions
Club° at a Recent Meeting,
- . by' Lion Ch rles Stewart,
Mr. Stewart, in addressing the
meeti g, said: '
Th 1 benefits of Lionism are aptly
'described by Shakespeare in his im-
mortal reference to "the quality of
mercy when he said it is twice bless-
ed—it blesses him that gives and hint
that takes—and to carry the quota,.
tion a little 'farther, the principles of
Lionism become the throned .tnonarch
better than his crown and its ideals
of charity, mercy and justice are
.atributes of Gad Himself.
For our purpose to -night we will
divide Lionism into three classes:
1st --.Constructive Lionistn as evi-
denced inti your crippled children's
work, your 'aid to the blind and your
care of the poor, your swi'mminie
pools, your Christmas cheer, and a
hundred other activities that vary in
accordance with the requirements of
the community in which Lionism; is
operative.
2n•d—Instructiive Lionism as com-
municated by your codes of ethics
morals and objectives, but more par-
ticularly by your individualexampl
and influence for good in the com-
munity in which you reside. '
It is of tate third class, however,
that we would, speak to -night and
as emphasis frequently falls in un-
expected places, so this third class
which we will call destructive Lion-
ism stands out in emphatic relief
against the• background of the other
two. And it is my humble opinion
that -were it not for...destructive Lion -
ism, instructive and'. constructive
LioTlism, would not long survive. By
Destructive Lionismwe mean -the ae-
tual . consumate power
r of Lionism to
tedown, level to the ground' and
forver destroy those _despicable
walls that rear their hey forms in
every community to the disadvantage
of the community, the interruption,
of co-operation and the destruction of
progression', ,
The first unfortunate wall that we
find Lionism invariably tear§ down
is that wall of envy, suspicion, jeal-
c,. y, hatredi alleunderstanding, mis-
repres"'entation and unfair competition
that so frequently' is existentbetwee•rt
business and professional men, es-
pecially those who happen .td be, en-
gagrd in the same lines, These are
destrcyed by° the simple medium of.,
association, by meetingtogether, b,•.
working shoulder to shoulder on the
same con:+mittees and by having...the
same nc'.le objectives --in a word, by
getting to know each other. As •Ed-
gar Guest no beatlpdfully puts it:
When you get to know a fellow. know
his joys `and know his cares,
And- you come to understand him and
the burdens that he bears,
And you see the fight he's making
and the trouble in his way,
Then you find that he is different
than you ,thought him yesterday;
You'll find his faults are trivial and
there's not so much to blame
In the fellow that you jeered at and
you only knew his name.
The old adage that opposition is
the life of trade is as false as it is
old. Co-operation is the life of trade
as evidenced in our recent successful
Dollar, Days made possible by the
co=operation of the merchants
through the medium of the Business
Mens' Association. Lionism teaches
us not to build up our business by
tearing down our competitor, but
by co-operation to make your town
a more •pleasant, convenient and pro-
fitable place to trade in so that there
will be business for all..

Confirmation services at St. Thomas,
Anglican Church. The ceremony was
largely 'attended.
In, introducing the Bishop to the
congregation, the rector of the
church, Rev. J. F, 'Meyers, said: "It
in with a great deal of pleasure that
on behalf of St. Thomas' congrega-
tion, assemrbled here to -night, extend
to you, My Lord, our heartiest wel-
come on this your initial visit to' our
church. We hope you may come of-
ten during the coming years, so that
we may come to know you, esteem
and love you as we did the late Arch;
bishop. •
Bishop 'Seager replied and based. ,
his address on the interview of the' ,
Saviour with the woman of Sae -kale.
They that worship Him must wor-
'ship Him in spirit and in truth, he
said. •
Seven candidates were received ha- , •
to the full communion of the church
by the Bishop, -including William' Ed- '
ward Southgate, Jr., Patricia Mar-
garet Southgate, Agnes M. Case,
Thomas Frank Case, Eai.•l Leyburne,

g Ly+burns an -el Mary
!Holmes.
' "Corporate Worship vs. Individuai-
istic . Worship". was the theme of•• • •
Bishop Seagerts,sermon. The speak-
er emphasized that riieiriibers of a
Christian church are not requested to
sacrifice birds and beasts, but that
a fuller sacrificial system exists in
the completion. of the world in which
-they 'are to offer their souls and
bodies a. living sacrifice unto Christ
the Saviour.
During - the service, • •appro'prlate
number's were offered by the choir,
under the .direction of Mits. J. H.
Best, and an excellent solo was sung,
by Roy Buffin. s .
At the conclusion of the ceremony,

It was the Forrest -Love Picnic
Editor, Huron Expositor:
Dear •Sir: Ay weel, Mr, Editor, I
have been on a picnic to Bayfield wi•'
the boys and girls.
It was the Forrest -Love annual
that includes the Forrest's of Stan-
ley and Hay, and the Love's of Stan-
ley, Hay and Stephen, plus the near- .
ried connection all around the coun-
tryside.
This year we had' an'ideal day,
ah, yes, a perfect day in• June. � Wa
were most all there except some doz-
ens that could not come, that is,
children and teachers in school. We
missed those who usually came front
London and Toronto. Maybe they
have jobs they wanted to hold. i
didna hear anyone say: Well, well;
we had a nice time of it.
On the way down my boy friend*
reminisced of how they wentto Bay-
field in former days in the farm wag-
on, anywhere from a dozen to Liven-•
ty in a load and the•way was so long
withal that the big half of the day
was going and coming. But this -
day we moved along ,at from 30-40
miles an hour and no jar, jolt or
bumps in the game.
1 have seen Lake 'Huron. in roa:ny
moods and color, but I think she was
more sublime than ever before, mov1
ing as tho' in her sleep.
It is a kindly -like thing to meet
and greet your own once a year a r.
least. Oh, yes. we give each other
the once over and note what the pen
of Time has written in the,past year.
And as 1 lmiked the gathering over,
1 was pleased to note how much of
joy, peace and faith was written
there even amid the records of caro
and toil.
The first event of the day was din-
ner and such a feast it was. Beats
me how women can perform such
glorious feats of cooking and -trans-
portation, to bring a cake with a soft
icing and a tart pie to a picnic and
have it arrive unharmed 'is a marvel.
Oh, well, they do it somehow.
Next we had our sports and they
had features you don't always see
because of the participants. Our
first was open to all between the
years of four to; six. There were
seven entries, the 'winn'ers being
H'Iorley Love and! Audrey Gill. But
I must mention Jimmy Lore, a tod-
dler
oddler• of four; who came in last, but
he finished his race. I hope he'll do
as manfully in every rase its life. In
the seven to eight class we grad Only
three bays, but they ran very weal,
Gordon Blanchard first, and Donald
Turnrhuli next. In the girls' 7-8 elaes
we had ''two, Helen Lova and Jean
