men's Institute was held at the home

The meeting opened. in the usual way.
and business followed, Roll call was
answered by payment of fees and ex-•
change of slips from house plants,
MrS. Hobt, Nay of Fordwich, gave
a splendid talk on flowers and how to
plant a perennial border, drawing dia-
gram on a blackboard, She also gave
a demonstration of arranging flowers
in vases and bowls, and reminded us
of an old Chinese proverb "If thou •
hast a loaf of bread sell half and boy •
a lily for thy soul". Mrs. Nay's talk
and demonstration was very much ap-
preciated by the ladies,
Owing to the lateness of .the meet-
ing the motto: "He who would have
beautiful roses in his garden must have
beautiful roses in his heart" that was
to have been given by Mrs, Anson
Galbraith, had to be postponed. We
will be looking forward to having it a
later date.
At the close of the meeting a delic-
ious lunch was served by the hostess
and her helpers.
The District Annual meeting will be
held in Gorrie in June,
Mrs, R. Jackson is visiting friends,
in and around dorrie. She leaves this
week for Black Horse, where she will
spend the summer with her brother,
Mrs, Wm. Hainstock of Shannavon,
Sask., is visiting her brother, Mr. Gor-
don Brown and Mrs, Brown.

Short are Toronto visitors this week.
We regret to record the passing of
Mr. Isaac Gamble, township clerk, on
Monday morning. Mr, Gamble was a
highly respected citizen and will be
much missed in the community. Fun-
eral service will be held Wednesday
afternoon. • The sympathy of the com-
munity is extended to the bereaved fa-
mily,
Charging for Piano
At the last meeting of the Women's
Institute a motion was passed that in
future a charge be made for the use
of piano in town hall, concert $2.00;
dance or ‘shower $4.00. If used only
for music between acts at" play no
'chargec to be made. During the war
the piano has been given free for ail
community activities but as the piano
has to be kept in repair the Institute
decided to again charge rent for it, ex-
cept when party or dance is being held
for returned servicemen.

ure.

week-end with her husband, Rev. Jas.
Caley. She and their young son, Dav-
id, will join Mr. Caley at the rectory

IS FARM MACHINERY
READY FOR BUSINESS?
Farmers whohave ordered repair
parts for their farm machinery are ad-
vised by J. M. Armstrong, Agrictilt-
ural Engineer, Central Experimental
Farm, Ottawa, to get in touch with
their dealers at once. Because of the
tie-ups in steel manufacture, deliveries
of repair parts may be', delayed. If the
dealer intimates that deliveries are
likely to be slow or late this season,
other plans may be made to get the
farm machinery in godd running order.
Temporary repairs may be resorted to
while awaiting the arrival of the re-
placement parts: Broken parts may
often be put in shape by acetylene
welding. A broken gear tooth can be'
built up by that process.
All farmers are not in a position to
carry out temporary repairs and usual-
ly entrust the job to the local black-;
smith. The average smithy is equip-
ped to make such repairs as brazing
a filling into the groove worn in axles
.and shafting. Often a blacksmith can
help the farmer in, needof repair parts'
by fabricating the more simple ones,
such as strapping, wrought'from iron
or mild steel.
MAY BIRTHSTONE
BRINGS HOPE and JOY
. To the people born in May goes the
distinction of wearing the most prec-
ious of the gems as their birthstone,
the emerald. This deep green trans-
parent variety of the mineral Beryl
occurs in the finest gem quality in the
Ural Mountains, Russia and in Colum-
bia, but clear flawless crystals are very
rarely found. To the gem cutter, the
emerald , presents a difficult problem
because it is extremely brittle and
cracks easily. There is one cut emer-
ald, polished but unfacetted„ hi the
Mineralogy Gallery of the Royal Ont-
ario Museum, and several fine crystals
both `in matrix and. extracted. Syn-
thetic emeralds are now • being pro-
duced, and it is impossible to recog-
nizewith the naked eye a naturally oc-
curring 'emerald from one produced
synthetically.
For spring no precious stone is more
appropriate than the emerald. Its col-
our is that of nature,for nature clothes
herself with green when she awakens
from her long rest of winter. Rejuven-
ation, hope, and joyousness are claim-
ed for the person who wears the May
birthstone. •
NEW BONDS COMING
A completely new type of Govern-
ment security is going to be placed on
the market this autumn, states The
Financial Post.
It will be a "baby bond" type of
security, although the exact name has
not yet been chosen. It will carry a
higher-than-market interest rate and.
have a number of special features aim-
ed to attract payroll savings and other
"small" investors. It will be introduc-
ed in time to replace present nation-
wide payroll deduction plans.
As well, the. Government will float a
purely commercial loan next fall
through banks and investment dealers.
This commercial loan will not be ac-
companied by wartime sales ballyhoo.,.
Its appearance may coincide with the
introduction of the new-type bonds.
But the two securities will most likely
be marketed quite separately.

refuse to move. How can I obtain
possession.
A:—Under existing rentals regula-

house before they enliited.

fore he will sell me ketchup. He

something he doesn't need in order
to obtain something he wants.
