1932 has been “catchy” haying. The wise old farmer let
the rain' have its way, when the sun shone he made hay. When
the sun was not shining, he did something else.

PERTH DISTRICT ■
HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY
VISITS ST. THOMAS
This was held this year at St.
Thomas, Jt was a little showery in
the morning but turned out a nice
day. About 1Q0 members of NO. 10
District met at the city hall at 3.00
o’clock when a meeting was held for
a short time,
by Mr. W. U. Lattornell, the Pres-
. sident of the St. Thomas Society. A
welcome was given to the conven
tion by Aid. Angus Johnson, Chair
man of the Park committee. A short
address was given by Mr, A. E.
Hunter, our district representative,
of Stratford and a talk by Mr. R. V.
Smith. An invitation was given by
Aid. J. N. M’cLeod for the meeting
to be heltT at London next year and
was accepted, Someone proposed St.
Marys, but no one was there to ex
tend the invitation, This meeting
broke up about 4.30, Then the visit
ors started seeing the gardens and
beauty spots of 'St. Thomas. First of
all we visited the home of Mr. R. V.
Smith on Princess Street, who is a
landscape gardener hy profession
and he had some.,’lovely rose arches
and tropical plants in his green
houses. .He has a hobby on the side
which is collecting foutterflys and
he has about 32,000. Of these he hag
20,000 mounted in glass cases in
three rooms. He has them from all
over the world. One which he has
mounted in a special case which he
was offered $200 for but thought
more of it than the money. It would
* interest any who could plan to visit
them. Anyone is welcome. Visitors
from all over Amercia come to see it.
He served the visitors with Ginger
Ale and biscuits after which we
drove round by the Michigan Cent
ral Railway grounds then on to
Dreamland Garden which are the
gardens of Dr. Bennett, who had a
very wonderful display of roses and
other flowers. He was there and
described the different kinds and
gave us their Latin names which are
forgotten and their English ones.
After we wandered round Alma Col
lege which is next door to Dr. Ben-
. nett’s garden they have an outdoor
amphitheatre which was made by us
ing, an old pit and will hold 1,000'
people, Next we visited Pinafore
Park the ground by Mrs. W. K. Jack-.
son then Mr. H. R. Cochrane, who'
is beautifying part of the bank of
the river. Putting seats in, flowers
and walks. , He is putting a lot.of
work in it and it sure is worth while.
After this we drove out to ‘Seldon’
the summer home of the County
Clerk, K. W. McKay, who has a fine
place and was the home of his fore
fathers and is over 100 years 'old,
and he is keeping it as it was then ™ vvu“8’ U‘L^wlfh ,11 fha fnrni+nrn I AlonZO McCaUH, ditto $68.2'5; MTS.

The Exeter groundhog declares that the main difficulty with
some people is that they don’t know what to do with an opportun
ity when it comes to them. He has found that some of his fool
ish kind, instead of eating clover, have a way of getting on the
highway just when some autoist wants it.
COME TRUE
The driving of three railway spikes Justice Latchford, Premier
Geo. S. Henry and Hon. E. C. Drury, on the 15th inst., marks the
opening of railway connections between the Great Lakes and
James Bay. Thus comes true the dream of great and farsighted
men of the past and of the present who have toiled unceasingly
and unselfishly for making the . 20th century Canada’s greatest,
and for giving the land of the maple and beaver a leading place
among the nations of the world.

SO FAR SO
Lovers of the human kind felt relieved to know that the con
ference at Lausanne had not ended, in complete failure. .Something
good has* come out of the meeting that a few days ago threatened
to eventuate in futility. How much good actually has come will be
.better known with the passing of time and the trying out of the
proposed measures. Much depends, of course, upon the attitude
of the people of the United States though it is well known that-even
that great republic cannot afford to isolate herself from the other
•nations of the world.
It looks, at any rate, as,if a step has been taken in the way of
solving the hitherto baffling reparations problems. Even that is
a great deal, a great deal more than most people are likely to
'realize. Just now it is the serious . duty of "everyone to do all
• that in him lies to heal the .open sore made in the. side of the
world by the Great War. Even more is it the duty of everyone ’to
do what he can to work for international peace and good will.
Still equally is it the duty for no statesman to be asleep on the job.
Eternal vigilance still is the price- of safety. Being the friend of
fair play well becomes the man whose policy is malice ' towards
none but charity for all.
Some innocent people are wondering why the British Gov
ernment is refusing to treat with the Irish Free State at the Econo
mic Conference to be held in Ottawa. The reason is the most obvious
in the world. The Irish Free State has refused to carry out the
terms of a treaty lately freely made by them with, the British
Government. That's all there is to it. Very properly the British
government refuses to deay with a state whose solemnly given
pledges it will not honour. Trust can be extended only to those
who prove themselves trustworthy.

deal of loose talk is going on
about the government’s making it easy for all concerned by put
ting more money into circulation the following quotation from
the National City Bank at New York is well worth rereading.
“It is true that a great many people today are puzzled in
all sincerity as to why it is necessary to balance the budget. They
look about and see evidences on all sides of a lack of purchasing
power among the people and they arrive quite naturally, though
not quite so wisely, at the conclusion that the way to remedy the
situation is for the government to create more money. This is
a common mistake, and one which has laid the foundation for
every great currency debacle from the days of the French assi
gnats tp the destruction of the pre-war currencies of Central
Europe. There are only two wdys in which the government can
put out more money, and both Of them are dangerous. Either
the government can simply set the printing presses to work and
manufacture more money and pay it in meeting its maturing
bills, or it can use its credit arid 'borrow heavily by offering Its
securities in the open market. Neither process, however, cab be
continued indefinitely, The former is nothing more Or less than de
basement of the currency and if persisted in will destroy its Value
entirely. The latter involves the government's credit, which IS
