SERVICE; SPELLS SUCCESS
We have learned our spelling in the creamery busi-
nese, and find that to succeed we must give our
,patrons service. Mr. Beninger, who is a graduate of
Guelph: Dairy School, will have charge of our Cream -
cry, and will test the cream' on delivery in your
p"resence. Then -we pay city prices in cash. This
we believe is the only way to conduct a creamery
business. Remember it makes no difference to us
how much or how"little you have. We supply cans.
If you want to know the value sof a dairy COW, test

A MESSAGE FROM FRANCE
To army, yo laggards! mark the flame
That glowed within the men who came
From desk and ship, from bench and
plough,
To play their part in Freedom's nausea
To ayms, to workl the need is great,
The foe is hammering at the gets,
If through he hurls his mighty Moet,
Once more you'll hear the Cry, -too
'tate.
To arms! Too long on beds of down
You've slept egeurr', while from your
Lown
Have gone the gallant lade •tvbo
sought
No other gain than Ilonor'u crown.
To urine, in miles of miry trench,
Where sweep the mine that swiftly
drench,
Your beet and deare i t,. IL Jim tido.
'Think! they too, felt the home land
wrencb,
To arms) To work, think of the slain,
More precious far than sickled grain,
So full of life, they died for you,
To army, or they'll have died in vain.

I was in A41r r" 11ot the other night
and 1 never saw to many troops in

see the trc ops we have here and the
bige gutta in the Artillery. We have
milee upon miles of big gone hero and
it is great eight to eee there in action
bet we soldiers get used to it, in fact
there is it war going on here all the
time. The artillery camp at Witley
is a sight worth eeeing to watch the
batteries turn out with their big guns.
Some days there is a parade of them,
over three miles long. leach gun and
ammunition wagon is dra-vn, by" six
horses eolnetiines eight. When I take
it look at those guns iG gives me a feel-

see in 80me .of .thee papers that the

it does taste good. Tho butter and

we never see such a thing hero and it
costs us nine cents aday extra to live
