Hawker, whose Atlantic flight ex- cited great interest both in this country and in America, is thus described by the Daily Chronicle of May 19th: "One of Mr. Hawker's strongest characteristics is an extraordinary toughness, which, to the amazement of -other flying men, seems to render him immune from effects of cold and low atmosphere pressure that the majority of people would simply he in- capable of sustaining. On occasions be has cheerfully tackled altitude records dressed in ordinary clothes and on a machine quite innocent of any oxygen apparatus: Under these conditions he has flown to a height of 27,500 feet—a ggure that was a record for a considerable time. On the top of this staggering feat of, endurance Mr. Hawker proceeded to dive pretty nearly vertically to the ground undergoing within the space of a few seconds a change of atmospheric pressure that would put any ordinary man's lungs out of action and very likely kill him' if he ensuing crash. This im- munity is no doubt very largely to be as- cribed to the fact that Mr. Hawker is a life-long teetotlar and nonsmoker" What Is Real Value Yon can buy a Four Cylinder 5 Piesienger Motor Car at a lower price than the Dort.

LEADER Auburn Auburn L O.I., will hold service In Dewart, the choice of Provincial Convention Hartley H. Dewart, K. G , member of the Legislature for Southwest Toronto, was at the Ont arid tiberal Con- vention, chosen permanent leader of the provincial Liberal party, succeeding Wil- liam Proudfoot, K. C., who was chosen temporary leader by the Liberal members of the Legislature when Hon. N. W. Row- ell resigned to enter the Union Govern- ment previous to the Dominion general election of 1917. A platform was also ap- proved. Mr. Dewart was elected on the second ballot, when he received 158 votes out of a total of 303. On the first ballot he re- ceived 147, which was ten short o' the number necessary to be elected Major (Rev.) J. C Tolmie, member of Windsor, and who recently returned from overseas, where he served as a chaplain,, ran second to Mr. Stewart, receiving 121 votes. . J. C, Elliott K, C , of.West Middlesex, came third, with 24, IVir. Proudfoot corning next, with 23, and the fifth, nominee, Thomas McMillan, receiving 8. • The poor showing of Mr. Proudfoot may have been due to his support of Un- ion Governmeht, which caused consider- able opposition at the time, At least he so interpreted the vote. At the end of the first ballot, when it was seen that he was not in the running. he announced his withdrawal from the contest. The defeat of Mr. Proudfoot demon- strated clearly that the Liberals who be- cause of their conviction that conscription was necessary to give adequate support to tthe men at the front, gave their suppor to Union Gov't, need expect nothing from the hands of Laurier Liberalism. They may come back into the fold, but it must be with .hat in hand, Mr 'Proudfoot, whose son rendered distinguished service at the front, being twice wounded, was one of the few members of the Liberal Opposition in the Legislature to give un- qualified support to Union Gov't and the men overseas. The Liberal convention repaid him to -day by giving him just 23 votes of a total of 312. "I can't thank many for voting for me." tie said, "but those who did, I do thank, This vote clearly shows that anyonewho had anything to do with the Union Gov't. will not receive any support from a Lib, eral convention or a so-called Liberal convention..'' "Withdraw,that statement," yelled sev- eral. •. "I won't withdraw it," shouted Proudfoot, above the uproar. • the Baptist church Sunday, July 4th at 3 p. in. Rev 11, 0.

If Princess PIttricla Is Mother of Children They Will he Born Royal I utielday, July 3rci, 1910 Dangerous Friends Keep the fellow who sweetly acquiesces. in all yam opinions at a safe distance. When you need his support you will find him a thousand miles off, saying, "Yes Yes!" to someone whoseside it is safe to be op, The mischief wrought by these sweet lipped, kitten livered apologies for -nen cannot easily he measured. With honied endorsement, pretended sincerity and implied support they provoke con- flirts from which they run and hide like a child from its incendiary conflagration, If ydu have a conviction as big as a pin- head stand by it, Don't be one of those jibbering idiots who lend their voice to every fool or knave who smites silence into blatancy. One word of honest con- viction is worth a whole lifetime of "Yes! Yes!", said to something you do not un- derstand, or to ill ich you are afraid to give your whole -hearted support.

Wroxeter alit By Storm;;' On Thursday.afternoon a very heavy thunder storm passed over this section. The rain did. a tremendous amount of good as many of the crops were showing • signs'of lack of moisture. Several build- ings were. struck .arid considerable valu- able stock killed by lightning. In Turn - berry Mr. P. L, McEwen's barn was • struck and damaged; Mr. Andrew Doug- las lost 3:head of cattle;'Mr. John Scott 2 lambs; Mr. jos: Lovell 3 valuable milking cows; and Mr. John McNaughton some sheep. In Morris Mr. Jas. Robin- son hada valuable team' of horses killed and the barns of Messrs Frank Vanstone and Angus McDonaldwere both struck and damaged. In Grey; Mr. F. Granger's house was. struck and damaged and Mr. Granger had four' geese killed: Struck By Lightning, • During'the severe electrical stor m pass- ed over this section :last Thursday even- ing, Mrs. George Kreutzweiser, Conces- sion 6, Culross, was struck on the foot by lightning while sitting at home in the kitchen. As quickly as possible a horse was hitched up and she was driven at top speed to Dr. Ferguson's office at Tees - water. Fortunately it was found that no serious injury had been inflicted, and the patient is able to move around again. But it was one of the most trying experi- ences and one of the narrowest escapes she has probably ever had. The same storm killed two horses belonging to Mr. Nixon Melvin, struck a calf belonging to Robert Keith, and did various other dam- • age locally. Several barns were struck, and some were burned, in surrounding townships. Who May Vote The question, "Who may vote on the forthcoming election on the Temperance Referendum Act?" is frequently asked these days. The Act reads as follows: The person qualified to vote as stated in the Ontario Election Act, 1918, as amend- ed this year as follows: (a) Every man and every woman who is a British subject by birth or naturalization; (b) is not dis- qualified under the Ontario Election Act or other wise by-law prohibited from vot- ing (c) has resided in Canada for the 12 months next preceding the day fixed by the Lieutenant -Governor in council as the day upon which the enumerator shall com- mence to make up the lists and is on the said day or will be within 50 days there- after of the full age of 21 years; (d) is in good faith on the last mentioned day and has been for the last 3 months net pre ceding the same, as residents of and dom- iciled in the electoral district in whicfi he or she resides is situated. Special provis- ion is made for soldiers to vote. It is probable ae enumeration of all persons en- titled to vote will he made for the purpose of this electric.

ONT. . p Look for the, t; Sllverwood's' Sign LT.ITOUGII Lady Patricia Ramsay, who entered West- minster Abbey on her wed- ding day as a Princess. of the Blood and emerged therefrom as commoner, has surrendered b,er place in the line of succession to the British crown, along with all tier royal immunities and prerogatives, yet the rights of any children to whom she may give birth will in no- wise be affected by her renunciation. For the most eminent jurists of the United Kingdom and of continental LIFT CORNS OR CALLUSES OFF Doesn't hurt! Lift any corn or callus off with fingers nations of Europe are united In their contention that parents have no power to sacrifice rights of their chil- dren, minors or as yet unborn. It is on the cards, therefore, that a descendant of Lady Patricia Ram- say, though she and her husband are now commoners, may yet become ruler of the British Empire. Next in line of succession to the five children of George V. comes itis sister, the widowed Princess Royal, whose two children are the young Duchess of Fife and the still unmar- ried Princess Maud, The Duchess of Fife is married. to the Duke of Con- naught's only son, Prince Arthur, and they have a little boy and girl, both commoners in the eyes of the law, although the boy bears the courtesy title of Lord Macduff, next in the line of succession to the crown. Then there is the Duchess of Fife's young- er sister Maud; after her comes King George's unmarried sister, Princess Victoria; thou his youngest sister, Queen Maud of Norway, and her lit- tle boy, Crown Prince Olaf; after them the four daughters of King Edward's sailor brother, the late Duke Alfred, sovereign of Saxe- Coburg-Gotha, and their children. Next are the Duke of Connaught and his only son, Prince Arthur, already dealt with, as the husband of time Duchess of Fife. Afterward come Prince Arthur's eldest sister, the Crown Princess of 'Sweden and her children and finally the offspring yet" unborn of the newly married Lady Patricia, 'Ramsay. ' ' If Lady Patricia Ramsay's mar-, riage k to - Lord - Dalhousie's • sailor brother, .Capt: the Hon. Alexander Ramsay of the royal navy, has been so readily :Sanctioned by King George and,1tas been welcomed by the ped- ple of,,G?:eat Britain it is because the union is of a nature to emphasize the emaneipatien of sthe reigning 'house of England from that foreign doc- trine, accordings tp the terms of which royalty can only mate 'with royalty, and scions of sovereign dy- nasties are debarred from marrying any but members of other dynasties. This had the effect of restricting English princes and princesses in the line of succession to the British crown to the choice of consorts abroad among the non-Catholic. reigning houses or else to first er second cousins ainong English royal- ties, to which there were manifest objections. There will, of course, be: no more British royal marriages with Germans. -. For sale by Z. LOCKIVIAN, Wingham.
