HOME GARDEN
CONTEST
Following are the Prize Winners in
Huron County.
The judging of the Home Gardens
has been completed and in spite of
the heavy • rains during the early
summer there were very few gardens
which showed ill-effects from the wet
weather. At least 90 of the 99 con-
testancs had gardens which were a
source of real pride both to them-
selves and their parents. While the
prize winners will no doubt feel elat-
ed they must realize that they won
by a very close margin and after all
prize or no prize there is a great
deal of satisfaction in having a real
good Home Garden,

John Redpath Dougall, di incuis l-
ed Canadian publisher and lit,'rat.rur
last Friday rrl:'hra ted is 7th hirth-
dey. - ,Ir. hougall despite his advan'-
ed age. is in excellent health, and that
morning found him at his desk as
astral in the Witness office writing an
editorial. a task he has rarely missed
daily for nearly (l0 years, Asked
for a message to the Canadian people
Mr. Dougall wrote that he was not a
prophet. Hr added: `'Tell them to
make Canada a land to love. Tall
them to seek first the Kingdom of
God and his righteousness and all
good things will be theirs."
HERE'S THE REASON
(By R. J. Deachrnan.)
Since the close of the last session
an amazing thing' has happened, Tho
Leader of the Conservative Party has
revealed the workings of his mird.
When the foothills of the retreat-
ing member:: `lied away, Mr. Bennett
took to the country and started mak-
ing speeches. Now the greatest of
men have had skeletons in their clos-
ets. The model housewife -very
rarely we hope -may find in her kit-
chen, a cockroach. If the truth were
known the dame of fashion may have
a holey stocking and any government
-even the government of the Right
Honorable William Lyon Mackenzie
King -may carry around a reason-
able nu
nrber of faults, failings and
mistakes which might be placed to
its debit by a pian as capable as the
Hon. Richard Bedford Bennett.
Mr. Bennett went on the stump
without apparently sensing that fact.
Instead of coming to grips with na-
tional problems he prefers 'co trot out
the old phases: "Canada for Cana-
dians" "Do as Washington Does"
"Don't send our Ambassadors abroad"
(They can never be trusted out of
our sight) "Save the Empire" "Orgy
of Extravagance" and so on. Far
into the night the fierce words thund-
er forth. Mr. Bennett knows. his
slogans if anybody does -he has used
them often enough.
Why He Does It.
Still one may contend that Mr. Ben-
net has brains. His use of these old
catchwords was not accidental it was
deliberate. He is a keen student of
psychology. He feels he has studied
the public mind and knows what Mr.
Average Voter wants. He believes
that slogans and not facts win ele,'t-
ions. His political mentor, the Mail
and Empire of Toronto, backs hint
up. In its issue of August the Sth we
find the following:
"Statistics show 'chat there is no
difference between the prosperity
the United States has had under
Democratic Presidents and what ,t
has had under Republican Presi-
dents. This does not deter Repub-
lican speakers from trying to' make
the flesh of the nation creep by
warning it against the broad lines
and soup kitchens that would fol-
low the election of Governor
Smith, Republican speakers well
know that the general public does
not read statistics and that electors
are more apt to be carried by im-
pudent slogans than thoughaful
arguments."
There!
