Mas Phone 89 Drunk On Dandelion Wine That dandelion wine will put a wobble in a man's gait and make him eligible for a drunk charge was demonstrated by a complaint laid by License Inspector White against Charlie Hestler of Cargill for being intoxicated in a public place. The accused pleaded guilty last weelt to the charge before Magistrates Geo. Sirrs and; Thos. Chisholm and was assessed $10.00 and costs. In explaining how he came to get a slant on Hetsler stated that he had taken a glass of dandelion wine on an empty stomach, and this had apparent- ly done the trick as well as any race -horse whiskey.

Men 19 and 20 Years of Age. Harvest Leiiive. Leave of A 4sesccir on Ground of Extreme Hardship. Procedure to obtain Leave of Absence. Men. Nineteen and Twenty Years of Age. It has come to the attention of the Government that there is a widespread impression that. young men of nineteen. years, and those who became twenty since October 13, 1917, as well as those who m.ay become nineteen from time to time and who have bean or will be called upon to register under the Military Service Act, are to be immediately called to the colours. - This impression is quite incorrect. 1`;o dai,e has yet been fixed for calling upon such men to so report for duty, nor has the question been brought before the Cabinet for decision. In view of the need of labour on theTrm, it is most unlikely that consideration will be given to the hatter until after the harvest is over, although of course the Government's action must be determined primarily by the military situation. There is no further obligation incumbent -upon young men of the ages above mentioned who have registered or who do so hereafter, until they receive notice from the Registrar's. - Harve;;t z_•: ave. Some enquiries have been received as to the possibility of granting harvest leave to such troops as may be in the country at that time. No definite asqur- once can be given on this point as .advantage must be taken of ships as they become available. On the other hand, harvest leave will be given if at all possible. Leave of Absence on Grounds of Extreme Hardship. It is desired that the Regulations respecting leave of absence in cases of hard- ship should be widely known and fully understood. Such leave will be granted in two cases:— (a) where extreme hardship arises by reason of the fact that the man concerned is either the only son. capable of earning a livelihood, of a father killed or disabled on service or presently in service overseas, or in training for such service, or. under treatment after returni g from overseas; or the only remaining of two or more brothers capable of e rninn a livelihood (the other brother or brothers having been killed or disableii on service, or boiler presently in service ice overseas, or in training for overseas under treatment of to his or their return from overseas); brothers married bef',we 4th August, 1914, living in separate establishments and having achild or children not to be counted, in determining the fact that the man is - the ' o -dy" remaining son or brother; (b) where extreme hardship arises by reason of eveptional circumstances such as the fact that the Tuan concerned is the sole support of a widowed mother, an invalid father or other helpless dependents. It is to be noted that in all thew cases the governing. factor is not hardship, loss or suffering to the individual concerned, but to others, that is. members of his family or those depending upon him. Procedure to obtains leave of absence. A simple system for dealing with these eases has been adopted. I<orms of application have been supplied to every Depot Isattalioll and an officer of each battalion has been detailed "4v1iose duty It is to give them immediate attention. The man concerned should on reporting to his unit state that he desires to apply for leave of absence on one or mere of the grounds mentioned and his application form will then be filled out and forwarded to Militia Headquarters, Ottawa. In the meantime, if the case appears meritorious, the z2_an tvill be given provisional leave of absence for thirty days so that be may return home and continue; his civil occupation: while his ease is being finally disposed of. - 1'SSU +"f) Dy Dlsl'FARTM1i] T OF MILITIA AND I)I•;PiS "C'1•;, DDPA1 TMENT OF Jtus'rrcl , THE W ..

People Believe the War Will Oe Won in the Mr- - Aeroplane Wings Must Ra Provided There is a great shortage of labour in the flax fibre fields of Western Ontario this year. In response to an appeal sent out by the Organization of Resources Committee of the Province, the flax growers have put at least fifty per cent. more acreage under cultivation. It is imperative that this flax fibre be saved in order to provide wings for the fighting and observation planes of the allied armies, as many well-informed people be- lieve the war will be won in the air, At least 'three thousand helpers are re- quired to pull flax, and that help must conte from the cities, towns and villages of the Province. While a considerable number of these are expected from all urban centres adjacent to the fax fields, Boards of Trade, patriotic societies, Re- sources Committees, community move- ments, Y. M C. A , church society and other organizations are appealed to in an effort to supply the deficiency. A cam- paign should immediately be undertaken to obtain and enroll an army of helpers, Our aviators must have wings, and any- one may enlist his services to give the Allied armies absolute control and drive the enemy from the air by helping to save the flax fibre crop of Western Ontario.

Wear the shoes that nearly killed you before, says this Cincinn- ati authority, because a few drops of free- zoneapplied directly on a tender, aching corn stops soreness at once and soo n the corn loosens so it can be Iifted out, root and all, without a bit of pam. A quarterof an ounce of freezone costs very little at any drug store,butis sufficent to take off every hard or soft corn or callus. This'should be tried, as it is inexpensive and is said not to inflame or even irritate the surrounding tissue or skin.

The binder which is considered as a very useful implement is rarely used more than a few days during the entire year. The rest of the time it • stands idle, taking up space, while the automobile it available for use throughout all seasons, and both day and night. It is ever ready to run down the lane tri the back field or the • pasture with a parcel or a message, or take you and your family to town for shopping purposes—or on an errand, to the neighbors. The motor car is called upon whenever anything is wanted in a hurry. It is the most useful implement or convenience for the farm. It helps you conserve your energies and time for p oductive work and enables you and your family to accomplish more with less energy. You surely feel the need of a Ford. Why not order one today?
