Mr,s Menus the TJ. F 0. candidate for $ tett Grey, says if elected, she will not contribute to sports, church specials, &c., except as a private citizen. Por will she smile at the men or kiss the babies except as sbe has been accttstotned to before her nomination. Editor Hunter, of Kincardine Reporter, is not so sure about the latter as he thinks every baby worth kissing --if it is eleau. Guess he's %not far out, Dor3'r be a Knocker it sloes not get you anywhere, excepting into a class known as irrepressible creaks, wbo by word and deed are ready to apply their little hammer to all enterprises. unless they are personally advantaged and that in a very street manner. Get into the sunshine, remove the green goggles and in a spirit of loyalty and optimism set your shoe der to the wheel. Nearly every community possesses a doubting Thomas but fortunately tbeir influence is no. very great after their d spositiou is thoroughly understood. Be an Optimist. THE days of heroism and "bearding the lions" have not passed away. We delight to record these events where folk do and dare. Stratfordal F 1 Fairwas the battleground in this combat and Misses Holland, Toronto, and Mitchell, of the Classic City, both nurses, were the heroines, What did they do? Awarded prizes in the Baby Show Where 67 entries of cherubs, from s months to ro years, were judged, Nor- man T, Ives was the man Whose name will go down to posterity for his courage and daring in pinning the prizes on the boys so years and under. As Tennyson remarked "Wben can their glory fade 2" SCHOOL Fairs are popular to -day Why? Because every member of hun- dreds of homes are "right-up-on-tbe-bit" as boosters. If the same effort could he secured for regular Fall Fairs, or &most any other enterprise, it would boost too Trouble is with many a worthy prcj-ct the heavy end is lett to a faithful few while the majority apparently carelessly stand by, ready to claim credit if succets bas been achieved or slam the attempt if disaster befell it. Moral is—Get Busy and stay busy until the completion and we'll guarantee success is times out of to. What's wanted are fellows with their coats off and sleeves rolled up. Are you a lifter ? HSRE's a "Cheer -up" that should be passed round in the hope that others will take a spasm of "shelling out." "3 members of Mitchell Cricket Club, P. Harlow, W Timms and J. Gibb, offer to donate $25 0o each to be used in differ- ent ways of helping tbe club." New grounds are being laid out in Keterson Park in that town ready for next year and the outlook is very optimistic One cause of failure in many an athletic club is that very seldom isa business•lika re• port of receipts and disbursements pre- sented to the public and they know little or nothing of wbat was done during the year as to management, "Let there be Light" is a good motto for any club. WR notice a few f the dear brethren of the Conservative faith, have been quietly laid to rest in tbe Dominion Senate—one of the most useless and ex- pensive appendages in connection with the political affairs of this land, Every party when in Opposition is always go- ing to amend it or wipe it off the face of the earth but as soon as they land Into office amend it by filling up every vacant berth with deadhead politicians or fel. lows wbo are in the road and must be got rid Of. If it were not for the en- ormous expense in its maintenance it mlgbt be a regular joke but it costs too much coin to be very funny. When will the farce end? LET this be a clean election campaign, free from personal attacks, purchasing attempts or faisfica'ion of facts. While many a public speaker is honest, but perhaps not possessed of full information on certain subjects, there are others wbo deliberately attempt to "put It over" their audiences in pointing out the whites and blacks, "the kliegs of the castle," acid "the dirty rascals," with the sun rising and setting very close to their party's yeigbborhood, There was a day, perhaps, whets that sort of stuff bed some value but It is not to -day and tbe less of it done the better for r c the repute- time P uta• e time of the speaker esker crud p the party whom be seeks to serve. Know your filets and let the gates work alone, HON. ARTHUR NEIGI3EN PRIME MINISTER OF CANADA An old St, Marys, Ontario, boy. HON Roar, BORDEN will 001 seek re- election as M. P., I. is said. He has spent the past es years in busy public life, Probably Sir Robert will not be averse to accepting s snug berth. A nice little touch at Stratford Fall Fair was the planned stteodance of 33 old folk ftom the House of Refuge. Flee access was given them and a fine i time was enjoyed, theatre to the geoer- osity and forethought of the Sbrtoers. "Go thou and do likewise" is a fitting moral lesson. IN Meleeo wi d hogs are domesticated and made d., duty, after training, as watch doss. ?' e have known 2 legged "hogs," from Mexico—quite a distance 3 from it—who without training were to domesticated they would monopotze a whole seat in a crowded train or street Car would take g pasts of the highway if driving a car or outer rig, could corral best c (flees and in a score of other ways prove a good right to betoog to the Cenadiau porcine family. They appesr to think this ptanet was just created for their special benefit. Wbat they de- serve to receive isa jolt, no gentle touch but a regular 16 ounces to the pound delivery, evert if they reply with a great squeal. IF the pen is not mightier than the sword the pile of political literature pass- ing through the mails, and that on the way there, is going to be a great wast- age without many cep'ures. Many of these epistles are written as if the re- cipients had been b'''led, deaf and dumb during the passing Years but tbe know- ing electors ncderstaud bow to weed out these love missives, without the se- compaoying barrel of salt. Of course the paper comes in useful for many pur- poses but some have found it slow to burn, we suppose on account of the super -abundance of lye in it. The tak- ing of this Government printed stuff through the mails free of postage while the electors bave to "cough up" for every post card, &c , they have to send, is a bit of nerve, when you come to think of it. If election campaigns came high one expense will be avoided in many instances viz the purchasing of Nerve Food. Chaff isa poor sutstitute for good wheat and the ballot markets in 1921 are going to do some sifting before they melee their X or we are going to lose our guess. THE WORLD'S OLDEST MAN WEDS AT 146.

By the Royal Marriage Act, the Prince of Wales may now—being over twenty-five years of age—marry with- ont the consent of the King. In that case, however he would have to give notice of his intention to the Privy Cotincil twelve months before the date of the ceremony. Even then the marriage would only be in order legally so long as both Houses of Par - lament did not disapprove of 1t. This Act, which dates back to 1772, was made by George IIl., who was an- noyed by the marriage of his two broth ers to women who Were not of Royal birth. The measure was forced through both Houses by the King in spite of tre mendous opposition. It is still operative however so that if the Prince defied thls Act, his mar- riage arriage would be void, and his children could not succeed to his rank or title. Such a marriage would be recognized by the Church however, and the child- ren would be legitimate.

He came to this country as a very young man and engaged in farm- ing near the town of St, Mary's Ontario It was here he learned his first know- ledge of agriculture. Ile filled the hum- ble role of hired man on an oid Ontario farm, Some six or seven years after he mar rued a girl from the St. Mary's district and moved to Alberta where he sought to establish himself as a farmer in the pioneer country north of Edmonton near the present village of Westlock which lies on the line of the Canadian Northern running between Edmonton and Athabaska Landing. Mr• Greenfield preceded the railroad 'MAKING HISTORY AT GRAND PRS At Grand Pr6, Nova Scotia, the other day, three hundred members of the Acadian National Congress assembled, and kneeling reverently at the statue of Evangeline, the heroine of LongfeIlow's immortal poem accepted on behalf of the Acadian race a gift of two acres of the Evangeline Memorial Park from the Dominion Atlantic Railway. There are in all about fourteen acres in Evangeline Park, and the two acres were presented to the Acadian race on the condition that they would build a church there. George E, Graham, general man- ager of the Dominion Atlantic Rail - 'way, expressed hie pleasure at wel- coming the delegates. With regard to the proposed church, the D, A.

Men and women knelt reverent- ly on tha ground, the tears stream- ing down their faces, murmuring blessin son the day that had re- stored to them the land of their entestore.
