COMMUNICATION
Editor of Advance
Dear Sir:-
. I feel it is my duty to answer Mr.
Simple Simon's letter which appeared in
your last issue. He is mistaken when he
says that the Greek Kandy Kitchen does
a great big Sunday trade. I have every
right according to the law to keep open
on Sunday, but on the contrary I spend
most of my Sundays with my brother in
Kincardine. I do not see the necessity
for Mr. Simple Simon to take up this
matter as we live under the British flag
which is a guarantee of British fair play
and deals justly with every citizen.
whether Greek or Canadian. We keep a
restaurant and as such are allowed to
keep it open on Sunday, but we do net do
so as we are Christains and respect the
Lord's Day as well as Mr. Simple Simon.
Yours very truly
Jas, Savalas.

Boots and Shoes
In the year 1899 tne above named
gentleman made his advent into industrial
Wingham and commenced business in the
store at present occupied by him in the
Irwin block on Josephine St.
Mr Greer has made a praiseworthy
success, since his commencement with
rare judicious care, along with his superior
knowledge of the real good thing in a
boot or shoe, and his knowing how to buy
gave him the advantage of placing before
his patrons foot -wear of quality, and at
the lowest possible prices. As one enters
this fine establishment to -day a pleasant
reception greets the eye in immense stock
of elegant foot -wear, and it induces one
to further investigate and the result is a
Purchase of an entirely satisfactory kind.
There are few places anywhere where
one can find a finer stock, easier prices
and better service than will be had here.
Ladies', Misses', Girls', Mens',. Boys'
and Childrehs' foot -wear of the very
newest styles, and from the best makers -
Foot -wear of quality will be found here.
Trunks, suit cases, club bags of variety,
quality with prices to please are always in
stock
• Mr. Greer is disti,pctly a man of per.
sonality in his line of business, order is a
prevailing feature. The clean, exquisite
taste displayed throughout his establish-
ment and the courteous treatment accord-
ed, makes one feel at ease while getting
their wants attended to
:A first class shoe doctor will be . found
there who will make a satisfactory job of
the cripple. A visit to this store for your

JIOWSON & HOWSON
Millers
• The old flour mill, located on the North
branch of the Maitland River has con-
tinued its steady grind for over sixty
years. In the year 1899 it was purchased
from Messrs Carr Bros by Messrs How•
son & Brockiebank. About a year ago
Mr. Brocklebank's interest in the business
was bought by Frank Howson and the
firm is now known as Howson & Howson.
Since 1890 many changes have been made
and the latest and best milling machinery
has been installed. The output capacity
has been increased from 75 bbl. to 100
bbls per 24 hour. At the present time a
further increase is being provided for and
soon the mill will be giving to the public
150 bbls. per 24 hour.
This growing,demand has been a result
of the satisfaction which the three grades
of flour manufactured have given the
consumers. The grade known as •-•L'Five
Lillies" is a pure Manitoba wheat flour.
"Quality" has been reached by a blend of
Ontario and Manitoba wheat while "Pat -
a -Pan" gives to Ontario of Ontario's best.
Beside the business done in flour the
mill gives a supply of feed to the extent
of 40,000 lbs per day. For the conveni-
ence of town customers both flour and
feed are retailed at the Howson & Howson
store on Josephine St. beside the town
hall.

Push off, and sitting well in order, smite
The sounding furrows. for my purpose

To sail beyond the sunset and the baths
Of all the Western stars, until I die.

It may that we shall touch the Happy

And see the great Achilles, whom we- knew
Tho' much is taken. much abides; and

We have not now that strength which in

Moved earth and heaven; that which we

One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong

To strive, to seek, to find, and not to
yield.

TO 13e Burned Naked, Leaving
Clothes to Others.
,The cold-blooded, matter-OZ-faet
way in which it is proposed to strlp
the German (lead of their grave
clothes, is astoundingly illuittrated by
an article in the Elbert eld Prete
Presse of Thursday, April 18:
Not only have the living a duty to
the ratherland, but also the dead.
Tho duty ot the dead is to be buried
without elothea. It bas often been
noticed that the dead are being bur-
ied not only with clothes, but with
underclothes, and even shoes and
etockiugs.
This is a beautiful custona, no
doubt, but it is impossible in war-
time, The paramount necessity to-
day to stretch our stocks of woollen.
goods makes its imperative that we
should, abaadot this custom.
Everything depends to -day on our
utilization of every possible piece of
clothing, and only the softhearted -
netts of our authorities and tender-
ness and consideration towards the
feelings and susceptibilities of the
people have so far prevented the
compulsory stripping of the dead be-
fore Interment,
A hint, however, has now been
given to all the authorities connected
with burials to put a stop to this
practice and to confiscate all un-
necessary clothing.
If the dead cannot be buried nak-
ed, why not give them paper
Clothes? Our paper industry is far
enough advanced to -day to enable us
to give the dead worthy and even
beautiful clothing.
It is now the duty of the Govern-
ment to promulgate the decision that
only those who succumb to contagi-
ous diseases shall be buried in their
linen. Otherwise this linen and all
other clothing and underclothing
must belong to the community.
Victory depends on such little
things as these.
Graphite In War.
Graphite is in various ways essen-
tial to the success of the military
operations of the Allies. Large
amounts are required for the manu-
facture of crucibles, for foundry fac-
ings, for dry battery fillers and for a
protective polish for explosives. Its
most familiar uses, in lead pencils
and stove polish consume compara-
tively little of the total output.
The crystaline graphite for mak-
ing crucibles, the experts say, should
contain as high ' as 85 per cent. of
graphitic carbon and should be free
from mica, pyrite and iron oxdide,
which are particularly harmful im-
purities, It should .also preferably
contain a large proportion of flakes
one milimeter or more In diameter,
Bo that its fragments may interlock
and thus be more easily bound to-
gether by the clay with which it is
to be mixed.
Most makers of cruicibles prefer to
use a mixture of Ceylon graphite
with American flake graphite. Do -
;nestle flake graphite may be used
alone for making crucibles, but, as
the domestic production cannot yet
be Increased sufficiently to supply the
needs of the crucible manufacturers,
graphite imported from Ceylon and
Madagascar must still be used.
A part of the greater demand for
crucibles during the last two years
has been due to the fact that cruci-
bles made with domestic clays did
not stand as many "heats" as those
made from the Bavarian clay, so that
a larger number were required to'
perform the same work, but the dif-
ficulty of obtaining satisfactory clay
for use in crucibles has been largely
overcome and crucibles now made
with domestic clays are thoroughly
!satisfactory.
It is estimated by experts that
about 30,000 tons of graphite suit-
able for. crucible manufacture will
be needed this year. If freight and
market conditions and an improved
labor situation favor the shipment of
domestic graphite about 8,000 tons
et flake of crucible grade, exclusive
of dust, can be marketed In this
country in 1918, an increase of more
than 100 per cent. over the produc-
tion of 191.7. If the freight condi-
tions that prevailed in the aufamn
of 1917 should recur the domestic
productions of No. 1 and No. 2 flake
will hardly exceed 2,500 tons. If the
domestic production could be stimu-
lated to its maximum eapacity, rea-
sonable assurance of a steady mar-
ket given, and encouragement offer-
ed to new plants, a production as
high as 12,000 tons might be reach-
ed, it is estimated. The situation is
more favorable with respect to non-
erucible graphite.

"Can you remember the title?"
"No; but it's her Jew book." he
insisted.
"Well, Pll read over some of the

haps you can tell me the one You
