Municipal matters are beginning to be talked about already. Amongst the names mentioned of those likely to enter the contest for reeve are: N. W. Trewarttia, Harry Salkeld, George Rutile and Bert Lindsay, Should all these stand for election and should Reeve Lobb decide to re- main in the field it would he a difficult thing indeed to "pick the winner." But probably before the time .comesthe number will have dwindled somewhat. 'However, if even two or three of these men are willing to serve in. the • capacity of reeve and a like quality of men are willing to stand for election as councillors it should prove an easy matter for tine electors- of Goderich township to provide themselves with a first class council. A very pleasant gathering took place at the home of 119r, and Mrs. Albert Townshend on Friday week when a number of the friends and neighbors took the opportunity of spending the evening, with Cadet Al- vin Townshend, who was home on his last leave. During the e+ening the young airman, who is only eigh- teen, was presented with a wrist' watch as a slight tokenof • friend- ship and admiration for his pat- riotism. The evening was thorough- ly enjoyed by all present. It is -hop- ed that before this young flyer has had time to finish his training and take up his work seriously that the Rim may be sufficiently "licked" to be willing to surrender' uncondition- ally. Cadet Townshend has already left for overseas. Stanley Township The township council at its meet- ing on Monday appointed Mr. Thos. Wiley as fuel controller for the township.

Moyer of Seaforth and music will be furnished by the church choir. The trustees are asking for a special collection on this anniversary occa- sion and trust that it will be a gen- erous one. A very interesting and solemn ser- vice tdas held in the Presbyterian church on Sunday last, it being the occasion of the unveiling of the Honor Roll of our soldier boys from this district who have gone over- seas. Several of the number have made the supreme sacrifice. Rev. Mr. Johnston, taking for his text psalm 89-34, showed most impressive- ly the value of our covenant and vows with God, with each other and nation with nation, showing very plainly how Germany disregarded her treaty as scraps of paper and thus plunged the world into war. Mrs. J. Fl. Johnston and Mrs. H. Foster unveiled the honor Roll af- ter which, tile very appropriate sel- ection by the choir followed, "When the Roll ,is Called up Yonder I'll he There." We are pleased to hear that Mrs. W. Dennison is improving very nice- ly. Sorry to hear that Miss Opal Fos- ter is on the sick list. Much excitement struck .the vil- lage when it was announced "the war was over," but sorry it was not confrmed,by later news. However, it is the beginning -of the end. Hullett Township On Tuesday evening of last week a number of the friends of Private Norman East met at his home, Con. 4, Hullett. They felt that they could not let him go to perform his mil- itary duty without letting him feel their good -will toward him and show the interest they take in all our sol- dier boys. After they had gathered together the young soldier was pre- sented with a handsome wrist watch accompanied by a suitable and in- spiring address. The evening was then spent in music, games and dancing followed by a delicious lunch. Before the company dispersed to their homes the hope was ex- pressed that another such .gathering might he held on his home coming. The following is the address : "Dear Norman, -We have taken this opportunity of getting together to give you a small but tangible ex-, pression of our feeling of pride and admiration in seeing you in the King's uniform, getting ready to do your bit in defence of our mothers, sisters and our country, against the most cruel and oppressive tyrant the world has ever seen. That you will do your share in maintaining the standard of elleiency set up by Om Canadian boys who have gone before you, we have every confidence. We ask you to accept this wrist watch with our best wishes, and kindest regards. Let it be a remind- er that those of us who are not privileged to fight with you, are al- ways thinking of you and if 'you are spared to return to us we shall be proud to be counted amongst your pals Signed on behalf of your friends, Arthur W. Groves, Mervyn Farquhar." Constance Mr. and Mrs. John, Riley and fanc- ily of Seatorth spoilt Sunday as the guests of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ben Riley.

Mr. ilcaham .had been in failing health for the past two years and for two weeks preceeding his death sank very rap- idly so. that his death was not un- expected. IIe was born in Ireland, coming • to this country with his parents when two years of age. 'Che family settled in Quebec a short distance • from Montreal where he liv- ed until he grew to manhood, Want- ing to see something of the world he went to Mexico, where he spent a number of years, being. interested in the mining district, IIe was most entertaining in conversation and it was very interesting to listen to him relate some of his experiences in dif- ferent places 'where he had travelled. He was most successful in business and came to this neighborhood about thirteen years ago and bought the fine farm .of Alr. Robt, McMor- die, one or the most attractive and comfortable bionics in this district. He improved the place still more by the addition of several outbuildings, cement walks, etc. He was in his sixty-ninth year and leaves a widow and nine children, six sons and three daughters,' who have the sym- pathy of the community. He was a Methohist in religion and the servic- es at the house and at the grave wore conducted by his pastor, Rev. R. Wilson, and a former pastor, Rev, John Hart, Interment took place in IIcnsall Union cemetery. Miss Margaret Alellis is in Brus- sels this week attending the conven- tion of the East Huron Teachers' Association. The Rev. R. J.

When the blood is impure the lungs lose their tone, and even if they are Lermitted to expand freely, they have not the power fully to perform their impor- tant Wolk. The fact is, there is nothing more necessary In our phy- sical economy than pure blood -the kind of blood that Hood's Sarsapar- illa makes. This medicine is the good old reliable family remedy for diseases of the blood, serofala, rheu- matism, catarrh, and low or run- down conditions of the system. At this time, when coughs and Colds are so prevalent, Flood's Sarsaparilla in an invaluable tonic. Get it today, and begin to take it at once. Ac- cept no substitute. For the sake of your country and the boys "over these" spend caut- iously, Ask youtselt first : "Is this something I really need or can I do without it 7" With Acknowledgments. 6o Luke Tildes, R.A . Pr 0 every home there comes a time when every thought, every hope, every prayer for the future centres on the recovery of one loved one. In that hour of anguish, every means to recovery is sought -the highest medical skill, trained nurses, costly treatment. Does the price matter ? It may be so great as to stagger the imagination -a sum beyond the possible. But does anyone ask, "Can we do it?" Money or no money, they do it. And somehow they pay. It may mean doing without things they think they need. It may mean privations, sacrifices, hardships. They make unbeliev- able savings, they achieve the impossible, but they get the money to hay. + + + To -day in this critical period of our nationhood, there is impera- tive need for MONEY -vast sums of money. Only one way now remains to obtain it. The nation must save, every community, every family, every individual Canadian must save. If anyone says "I cannot save" let him consider to what extent he would pinch himself to relieve the sufferings of a loved one at home; and surely he would not pinch less for our fighting brothers in France. Without suffering actual priva- tions, nearly every family in Can- ada can reduce its standard of living, can' practice reasonable thrift, can make cheerful sacrifice to enrich the life -blood of the nation. You who read this, get out pencil and paper NOW. Set down the items of your living expense. Surely you will find some items there you can do with- out. Determine to do without them. Start TO -DAY. Save your money so that you may be in a position to lend it to your country in its time of need.
