A fire in a bedroom at FIRE IN ZURICH What might have made a bad fire occurred on Tuesday afternoon at about 3.30 when the fire alarm sounded and the small barn on the property owned by Mr. Hugh Thiel was found to be ablaze. The barn is located between the Hess wagon shop and Mrs. S. Haberer’s barn and was in a dangerous position*as the flames were oozing out of every crack and crevice and it looked a1 hopeless case. After the new and powerful engine got into action, however, with its double lines of water and chemical hose, the fire was soon under control and the un- j touched portion of the building was 1 saved.

Those Islands are a stepping stone for the invasion of America. The Dutch called these islands the Stepping Stones, step­ ping stones to America, of course, Further, those Roman Catholic bishops are well informed men who know what is going on and what is not going on. They are one of the best sources of informa­ tion in possession of the Allies. His Lordship is worth heeding. ******** HER HELPER We recall the experience of a farmer’s wife who had to take over the faim work because of her husband’s serious illness. No one in air the countryside worked harder than she worked. Yet she had a few nice flowers that she never neglected, no matter how press-' ing the day's work. She had, too, some rare knitting that she kept up, We asked why she did so, for we knew that she was tired many a time when the flowers were attended to and the fancy knitting was being done. Her answer was, “It rests nice things." She was not the first to find done by the folk who cultivate the fine and ****** THAT RUN-IN All Canadians regret the run-in between the citizens and the military that took place recently in Goderich. ‘All soldiers are not arrogant and all citizens are not quarrelsome, so let the incident pass on due investigation, soldiers.

Said this sailor, “If a sailor is found down town with his hat on wrong, or if he is known to misbehave in any way he is picked up by the navy police and dealt with sharply by the authori­ ties.” We like military men to look the part and act the part. * * * * * * * GOING BADLY Things are not going satisfactorily on Russians have done excellently beyond all __ ___ ___ ever, they cannot do the impossible. They are not a warlike people and warriors are not made in a single battle. They have appealed to their Allies for a western front but that front has not been made. What the consequences of this failure to aid oufr struggling friends is known only to Him who dwells in eternity. Why that front has not been opened the plain man fails to see. We cannot think that the leaders in Ottawa and London and Washington are indifferent to the perils of the hour. Their reason for inaction must be of the strongest and most serious nature. Some grave .cause must keep all the world wondering.sw ****** * JARS VERSUS BEER BOTTLES Inquiry brought out-the fact that pint sealers are off the mar­ ket, las far as manufacturing is concerned. Beer bottles, we are informed, are not off the manufacturing market. The real thing in sealer rings are off -the market and a poor mess is being put in their place. Meanwhile we see liquor trucks abroad with their heavy rubber tires. And this is as it is on the vote of the people. We wonder and wonder. It may be replied that the beer bottles are needed to send beer to t^ie soldiers in Africa. We ask, are the trucks we referred to conveying beer to Africa. We add that we are will­ ing to send distilled water to our brave men for there is no drink equal to water for soldiers or foi’ anyone else. There may be a shortage of glass. But why refuse pint sealers to our housewives while giving the beer drinkers all the bottles they wish?******* THE REAL STUFF We were the guest of a farmer as the storm raged that levelled - the crops of the neighborhood. When we sat down to dinner he had fifteen acres of wheat ready for the binder , and .another ten acres ready to be hauled in the next day. In addition he had fif­ teen acres of barley and a large field of oats. Five minutes of the storm resulted’in every head of cut grain being soaked .and every spear of standing grain being levelled. He and his son had done all they could to get on with the farm work but the storm added fifty per cent to their too heavy task. “Ah, well,” said his wife, as we came away, “we have got through misfortunes before and we’ll get over this.” But they were not smiling as they spoke, though one witnessed courage dawning and hope returning. Will our politicians please take pleople like this into account and watch the public pennies? Those pennies ■majority of our people.***** LET’S GIVE IT Word has come to us that there _ ___ ___ . . __ to solve the shipping problem by building biggger and more air­ planes.

We say, give this man every encouragement by private capital and public assistance. We may laugh at the proposition but the builders of railroads1 and steamboats and steel ships were laughed at. Yet the laughter did not prevent the construction of these wonders. Further, we’ll not be ohe bit surprised if the airplane is to be <the second front that Will blast Germany into good behaviour. At any rate, give those men with ideas a fair show and all the encouragement they require. We’ll get nowhere as long as we keep our men with ideas cabined, cribbed and confined.

She had been in poor health for some time and' has re­ sided with her daughter for about two months, having lived in Dash- Wood' prior to that -time. She is sur­ vived by two daughters, rMrS.

The Interesting thing about this home is that it is the house in which his mother’s mother was born. Bit by bit and over long miles of road that old house was transported'to the new and beautiful location. The kitchen cupboard and some of the old pictures were there. There, too, on the wall, is the old wooden ox yoke that helped to clear the old farm, more than a century ago. Over the door1 was the old long-barreled bayonet and musket that did valiant service in 1812. And there was the grandfather’s clock of the early years, ticking away and keeping perfect time. Interest­ ing as wei’e these and a score of other relics, more interesting s-till was the spirit of the son who tried in every way to keep his mother’s memory fresh / and green and fragrant. There is nothing retro­ spective or retroactive about this man as a manufacturer. His toots are in the past, but his eye Is bent on tlie future, a characteristic of otic best Canadians. And such roses as twined in beauty about that summer home! Wholesome sentiment ever leads the van of progress. The man who honours' his fathey and mother finds his days long and full of joy.

So there you are. These soldiers represent the guessing of the world. For all but a few# for all but perhaps three or four men, the matter of the time or the reality of a western front is pure con­ jecture. We believe that a western front, is going to materialise. Allied soldiers are going to invade Germany and Berlin. About the date? Russia has done marvels in holding Germany. We ex­ pect that she’ll continue backing up. and backing up. She is doing this to lure Germany deeper and deeper into Russia, In two months winter will be saying things and doing things to Germany. We fully expect that Russia will not have sustained a knockout before winter comes, Germany will not find another Russian winter* any picnic. Equally wonderful has been the achievement in China, Japan may win here and there, but winter is coming. So far there are no signs that China has sustained a crushing defeat. Britain is gaining in Egypt under her new leadership. There, too, the struggle is bound to be long and hard. While all this is going on, what about the Allies? The United States is just getting into her stride. By next spring, when Germany is wearied with hei* Russian campaign and America is ready, we may look for something stirring on the western front, after the R.A.F, has smashed every considerable Axis city. Till that time comes, as come it will, the Allies will pay a terrible price, There will be waiting and suffering beyond all tell­ ing, so let us get ready, There will be darker days before the dawn. But the dawn of peace surely will come, Thera is nothing for it but to cut out all luxuries, steel oui' hearts, put our faith in Him who does all things well and get down to our level best, no matter what our worthwhile job. ****** WRWTRRN FRONT betting, some of them that there'll be a a month.

And there will be chunks .of us left, no mat­ ter what they do. Yet it gives one a queer, unhappy stab, this kind of news, quite apart from worry about friends. It all seems so outrageously improbable. I know York; I’ve lived near Exe­ ter, and I spent my growing-up years in Bath. Who could have dreamed of such things happening? i Bath:, prim, demure and comfort­ able, lying in that green cup of I the hills. ! it’s ! -think j to do place never But Bath, perhaps, comes a little near it, for I was a student there. We were happy and miserable in­ turns; we worked and played hard; We began to form our ideas there, our arguments, our points of view. We made all sorts of pictures in our minds about the future . .. . But never- a with its thought I was to other bombed towns, could ‘take it’ and as well as any! A trace of civ­ ic pride there, I think, don’t you? Old Days in Bath Bath folk must have rubbed their eyes sometimes in the old days, I’m sure. For instance, when we were to be seen, early on a chilly morning, running in a batch through the beautiful little -park, training for our forthcoming paper- chase—with me, not to be outdone, panting along beside the six-foot­ ers. I expect they thought we were all mad. Then they were forever coming upon us crouched on sketching stools, our earnest faces smudged with paint or charcoal, perpetuating those old monuments. We were so untidy, too, I remem­ ber. There wasn’t much time or chance to be very tidy, what with working twelve hours a -day, strug­ gling feverishly fob scholarships, and getting through the prolonged agony of examinations—and feel­ ing just a little ill for weeks at a time, in our anxiety. - ■ fun. In Bath—in a building that is now ble, I hear—-I went to grown-up 'ball. Into swept (I trust) in my first real ball gown with a fish-tail; secret­ ly terrified of tripping over the thing, despite hours of secret prac­ tice! Life seemed to open up that night, and I wondered what was ahead, of it. No Enemy can take that away, at ; least. There were lots of parties and dances after that: for one learned how to get clean and be­ have like everybody else, under pressure. Maybe Bath, when it shakes down again, will be as cor­ rect as ever. I can’t doubt it. There are things in Bath even more monu­ mental than the monuments, ‘ llevo me. il’eiti FihglftrHi Then Exeter: real England, We on aren’t insanely And somehow, moments, I can saying—Exeter and the Roman Baths Minster—“Look here, don’t mind us.

I fancy, paltry what is the great thought behind these erectons? I suspect that it is a relic of that curious, old-fashion­ ed, small-home notion of ‘keeping myself to myself’, so long a ished ideal. Personally, I’ve been able to see much more than a tacit disparagement of neighbors,, with a flavoring of per­ sonal conceit. Anyway, the rail­ ings have gone, and with them a lot of the dreadful, hideous smug­ ness of the last century. The roads look wider, the bourses humanised. True, the laurel and privet hedges remain, but there is something far more friendly about a hedge. It is a living thing, and'not a bristling array of half-rusty bars, Yes, I suspect that the disappear­ ance of those hedges is a portent; and it’s taken a world war to bring [it about. But it would! Here’s to ; the tearing down of more railings, ' the violation of more smugness. We don’t mind now that it’s happened, and anybody who knows our little Island well will agree that .here is a revolution of no mean order. There are no railings round the London parks, now, and how well one remembers the time when they prickled with railings: not only on the boundaries but in where citizens had the walk across the grass! told (though I admit I how true it is), that the ceremony of locking the gates at night still persists. It is a diverting thought. thing to barricade the People with evil intentions, are not to be kept out by four-feet-big-h spikes; so eher- never in it one's town, have often years, right, that.

Yes, think of the most peaceful , place you know, and-then imagine i it torn by horrors in the night. | Then you will have some idea of the bewilderment one feels in re­ membering these old scenes, these q.uiet squares and gentle parks and.primrose spa'ttered lanes. I said we were sentimental, didn’t I? But not too sentimental to put first, things first. We shall build monuments of our own when this war is over; and in a few hundred years’, time, may­ be, humans will stare up at -them and think of us in this most strenu­ ous age of ours. As far as that goes, we could even rebuild some .pf| the old ones, for we have this great I advantage over the past—we have I our photographs. Nobody knows quite what a Saxon village looked like, and we are worse than vague about what stood on the site of St. '' Paul’s Cathedral, centuries , ago; but, if we wished, we could copy most of the things we’ve treasured up to now. Yet I hope we shall first of all think about building things typical of oui’ own age; why not?' For thus is history made—and ap­ preciated. A relative Bath, writes is sheltering She doesn’t moan about it, or even make any comment. She simply states the fact, and finishes: ‘Must stop now. In great haste. Very busy naturally.’ I am quite sure that she, in her -quiet country se­ clusion, with her nice house and placid garden, never imagined that her life .would take such a turn; but she’s risen to to it grandly, bless her. Now, in the warmer season, there come the ‘Alerts.’ Once again, at bedtime, 'one puts out the thick coat, the gas-mask, the ready-pack­ ed suitcase near at hand; and those who have shelters have made them all ready. And those shelters no longer ugly humps of sand earth and stones, for flowers growing on them. People feel if they must see humps in the den they may as well be decorative. And why not? Sometimes there are noises and vibrations; sometimes the searchlights swinging round, pierce the blackout and make the room as light as day; but with all these disquieting things there are lovely things as well.
