A stranger coming to town Saturday
night would have thought he had landed
ou the outskirts of civilization or that he
was in the advence guard of pioneers
opening up a new country to gee the
stores all lighted up with the old fashion-
ed coal -oil tempo and riot a light on the
recto Some were better off than othere
having gaeoline lighte and the Cain home
and A. R. Finlayson presented a good
ppearance being lighted with "Delco"
and having the laugh on all the ret and
this will probably be in force for the beat
part of the winter and probably until next
spring as Mr. Stewart heti no coal to run
any longer and neither has the town it
they should have to take It aver after the
lawsuit in December. Mr. Stewart turn-
ed the lights on for about 3 hours au Sun
day night to accommodate the Preeby-
terian church which is the only church
in town using the electric lights, but next
Sunday this too will likely be lighted with
lamps. It te very unfortunate that this
muddle should have occurred at all and
especially just now as many are thinking
of putting in Delco and this will be a blow
to hydro which can not possibly be here
before „next summer, and those who can
not waft till then will have Delco and will
not want hydro, but in the meantime we
are all having a good time waiting and
watching to see what the next develope-
ment will be.
That you cannot trust everybody was
the experience of two young men who
drove to town last Saturday night to at -
end the concert in the hall and left their
coats in the buggy, on returning they
found the coats had been taken. It is
very inconvenient not to he able to leave
things in your rig but evidently it is an
unsafe practice.
Hallowe'en was rather noisy in spots, a
number of young men who were annoy-
ing the chinarnan was chased with a long
knife in the hancie of the excited chink and
will probably appear in court. A number
of the young folks were dressed in fancy
and grotesque costumes and visited many
houses in town and were treated to cake
and fruit, very little property damage was
done.

Drowned at Kenota
On Saturday last the people of this
village were shocked to hear Of the etidden
death of Conductor H. A. Doan of Ken'

Doan of this village and was well known
here. Later, we learned deceased who
had been in company with another con-
ductor by the name Of Stewart was out on
a fishing expedition and both young men
were drowned near Keriora. It is par
ticularly sad as deceased leaves a wife and
four children to mourn the loss of a loving
husband and father, also his mother and

Can You Forget?
As long as you live you'll remember November 1 I I),
1918 Armistice Day.
That was the day the enemy surrendered.
That was the day of Victory for our army.
- Day after day—year after year—through rain, cold,
beat and death—they have fought bravely, stubbornly,.
(cleverly, faithfully—the spearhead of fate pointing in.
exorably at the blackheart of the enemy.
Remember the Somme? Ypres?
Vimy? Passchendaie? Cambrai?
MONS?
,Can't you -catch this brave spirit?
'Can't you see how small is our task
compared with theirs?
Shall we fail to lend our money to
the country for which they gave
their lives?
The Victory Loan, 1919, must be a
victory, too It is needed to pay
our obligations to the arnay and to
keep the fair name of Canada writ
high among the nations.
'This is a War Leath
Canada needs to boirow your
money,
It the Victory Loan Sueceeds, it
will be another Mons for Canada.

0 day of smoke and fame,
0 ancient festal day!
Upon the alters of the earth
The heavenly fires play,
All passion, all desire,
Fuse into one consummate hour
Of quiet ecstasy.
Before those veiled hills,
The lake adoring lies;
And shadowed in the quiet lake
A migrant legion flies,
The meadow grass is mown,
In withered sheaves the grain;
And where the corn stood tall and sweet,
The stubble gleams again.
Again the hidden rites,
The old mysterious haze;
Again the leafy miracle,
The sacrificial blaze,
Up from the sacred fires
A fragrant mist distills,,
'As incense round a temple -donne
It floats about the bills.
The plough -man drives his blade
In furrows deep and long;
"Flowers to the earth, earth ta the sun;
The plough's primeval song,
My soul, an upturned nerd
The autumn sun bath blessed,
Drinks of the ancient promises
And gives herself to rest. '
G day of smoke and flame:
0 sacrificial Day!
Upon the altars of the earth
The heavenly fires play;
All passion, all desire,
Fulfillment, prophecy,—
Fuse into one consummate hour
Of quiet ectasy.
