Fraser has sold the film right for his famous racing novel, 'Thorobreds" to a firm in -Los Angel- -'Cal„ for a handsome sum. It ' will no doubt soon be presented to •-Canadian audiences as another of "America's wonderful pictures." * * * * One would suppose to hear some 'people talk that a country could be •:at war for nearly five years without the inhabitants noticing any pres- sure upon their pocket books, or that governments had some magic way of raising money without getting it from the- people. * * * , "Another sugar advance soon" .we are warned, What happened to whose ship loads of sugar that were merrily floating Canadawards last week? Can it be that they were in- tercepted by profiteers and put in .cold storage somewhere so as to ..create another "shortage."? ,x * * * A house was burned at Sandwich the other night, the family escap- ing in their night clothes.

If only one could buy one boot today and the other next week, when one :+xrnld have had time to earn some more money. It is this work of keep - ng, hold of the money until one has 'enough to buy anything that puzzles ns.
