CONTROL .... PROMOTION?
Our Provincial legislators in
Ontario know what dangers lie
in uncontrolled liquor sale.
They know too that there is
little use expecting social re-
sponsibility from brewers and
distillers. Over and over again .
they have proved their real in-
terest to be in profits, not
people.
One of their specious pleas
is that because their business
is legal, it merits freedom in
advertising. But there is a vast
difference between beer and
bread, or whiskey and wheat.
Why .control laws far alcoholic
beverages and not for food
and furniture?• We are all
coming to realize more and
more that all kinds of people
- are getting hurt through in-
sufficient control of this liquor
business, Indeed, we are led to
ask whether we have `con-
trol" or "promotion" when We
read such figures as these.
Last year the Ontario Govern-
ment received 55,000,000 dol-
lars in liquor revenue - an
increase of $10,000,000 over
1954!-(Advt.).

Morris Centennial
Draws Attention
To Old Letters
The approaching Centennial cele-
bration in Morris Township has
drawn attention to a number of
historical letters and documents
of a hundred years ago.
The Wingham Advance -Times
tells of such a letter:
History is handed down from
various sources. However, it's not
often letters remain in a family
for a hundred years. .
Miss Lena Parkinson and Wil-
liam Stubbs have in their posses-
sion a letter written to England by
Joseph Stubbs in 1856. The letter,
addressed to his sister during the
winter, gives some idea of the
hardships endured by the pioneers.
Describing the forest, he stated
that the trees were as thick as ;
hair on a dog's back. He said the i
winters were severe with much
snow; he had not seen the bare
ground since November and" didn't
expect to see it again until April.
He realized it would be hard for
an Englishman to believe, but at
time of writing the snow was
three feet deep. Several people
were frozen to death every winter
and one person quite close to him
had died from freezing the week
previous to writing.
Mr. Stubbs told his sister he had
attended Tom Wilkinson's wedding
-to a• little Irish girl on the first
of February.
He had worked in a sawmill dur-
ing the winter months at $16 a
month and his board. He cleared
his land in summer, at which time
it cost him $10 a month for board.
He said it took a lot of work to
clear the first ten acres of land,
get a house and outbuildings erect-
ed - "for an Englisman likes
something neat."
The first house was built of logs
and stood in the orchard of today.
The white brick house now occup-
pied by William Stubbs and his
sister, Miss Parkinson, was built
almost 70 years ago.
Explaining to the people at home
the density of the forest, he said
there was a great deal of differ-
ence in the woods there and here.
He had to travel 20 miles through
the woods to get provisions, and
carry them on' his back. "There
are no roads, only a rtail that
scarcely a white man has trod,"
stated Mr. Stubbs.
He wrote that here he could
save more money in three months
than he could all his life in. Eng-
land, but he spent accordingly.
P:' ccs were d2 nr-9 shillings ster-
ling for a pair of gloves he had
p rchased. He als.^ said he was
close to bankruptcy. but was not
w.,rried about it.
There was also a letter to Joseph
Stubbs from his mother, written at
an even earlier date, and the con -

Weeton, Dec. 5, 1850
My Dear Son:
I take up my pen to write to you,
though I feel sort of fear that my
letter may never reach you. I have
been very uneasy about you ever
since you went off and your sisters
and brother has felt the same as
myself, anxious to hear how you
landed on a foreign shore. But I
heard that a person living at
Kirkby, named George Procter,
who had received a letter from his
son in America. So I went there to
inquire if he knew anything about
you and it gave great relief to my
mind to hear that you was so
comfortably settled among your

Mother.

During exercise drill, the corpor-

"Flat on your backs. Revolve
your legs like you were riding a
bicycle."
Suddenly, he spied a slacker.
"W,ell, No. 3, what's the mat-
ter?"
"Nothing, corporal. I'm coast-
