"May we always honour those Can- adians who so nobly died or, being willing to die, survived, but let each .succeeding anniversary strengthen our determination to prevent a re- currence of the horrors of war:" Signed "Cairine M. Wilson" This is the message sent out by.. Canada's only 'women Senator, The Honourable Cairine Wilson, and her message is directed to the women of Canada. Embodied in it is the ideal that "each anniversary should streng- then our determination to prevent a recurrence of the horrors ,of war." We in Canada, have at the present, numbers of soldiers whose bodies are shattered but whose minds are being kept alert and as far as possible, away from the horrors of war. This is being done through the Canadian Legion of the B.E.S.L„ by utilizing the entire output of the Poppies man- ufactured in Vetcraft Shops. Where returned and disabled vet - vane, unemployable 'except for the work which is given them in this way, are able to work and feel that they are still of use in the world. On Saturday, Nov. 5th, which is Poppy Day in Clinton, let us all do )our bit in remembering. these sol- diers and buy Vetcraft Poppies and wreaths so that these men may still be employed and made to feel that their effort was not in vain. Inspiration is given the sale of Vetcraft Poppies throughout Canada by Her Excellency The Countess of Bessborough wire, i$ the Patroness for all Canada in the Legion sale of Vet- craft Poppies and wreaths. —REPBEKAH tfelitliSenivice ' MttMlbian OF THE ebirat A, oariat xit and Life Insurance Companies in Canada. ,Edited by GRANT FLEMIN'G, M.D., Association Secretary. NOTHING SERIOUS The lives of thousands of 'Canadian • children have been lost because par ents have thought that measles is - "nothing serious," and that "it is better to have it and be done with ii." We all know that practically ev- erycne Isar measles sometime during his life. The disease is very .eoln- • mon, and, as obviously nearly every- one recovers from an attack, it is apt to be looked upon more as a nuis- ance than anything else. A small percentage of all who con- tract measles de not recover. How- ever the number of eases is so great that hundreds of deaths in Canada. each year, from measles are repre- sented by this small percentage. Measles is always serious because - of the number of deaths 'which oc- cur, and because it causes permanent damage to the bodies of some of, these who recover. The younger the child, the more likely it is that the disease willprove fatal, When recovering from measles,. the body is less able to withstand the attack of the germs of other dis- eases. The result of this lack of re- 'sistance is that pneumonia often de- velops during convalenscence, and is not infrequently followed by tuber- culosis. There are certain practical applica- tions of this knowledge which all parents should understand. The first is that every effort should be made to keep the young child away from existing cases of measles. A child should never cone in contact with other children who have measles nr who are suspected 'of: having the disease. Nine -tenths of all deaths from measles 'occur during the first five years of life, After five years of age, the child is much loss likely to suffer a severe atack. Parents will accomplish a great deal in safeguard- ing the lives of their ehildreu when they succeed in protecting them from measles during their first years of life. The second point of importance is that the child who has measles re- quires good care. He must be kept in bed, no matter how well he may seem to be, until the doctor allows him to get up. Getting up too soon is the usual way in which the child catches cold; then pneumonia may follow. The ehilcl who has measles is suf- feeing from an acute infection. It is a serious condition for the child and it should be treated as such He should be isolated so that he will no' spread the disease, and he himself' should be under medical care. The attack itself may appear to be mik i but unless proper care is given, the results may be serious. No one 'can tell, so the only safe way is to give proper eare to every case. If your young child has been ex- posed to measles, esk your doctor at once about protecting hint through the use of convalescent serum or adult whole blood. Questions concerning Health, ad dressed to the Canadian Medical A$• snciatinn, 184 College Street, Toron• tn. will be answered personally b} letter. 'What Clinton was Doing in The Gay Nineties' ..00 YOU REMEMBER WHAT HI'P P.CNED DURING TIM r.AST DE- CADE OF THE OLD CENTURY? From The Huron News -Record, July 6th, 1802, ' Yesterday the result of the British elections stood: Conservatives 46, Liberal Unionists 7, Liberals, 88.. , The. Dauntless junior lacrosse team of Clinton beat the Hurons Of Gdder- ich on the grounds of the latter by finished the umpire and: captain from , Clinton had to be safely' escorted off the field and when the Dauntless club were driving home they were stoned by 501110 of the Hurons and I their backers... We do not believe that the li•etter cies; of citizens of Goderich approve: of such conduct but a number stood by and saw the 4 to 1 on Dominion Day. -Two ' bur contemptible and unmanly work three hundred people went up to See' without offering any peetectiol to tie snatch.... When the ganre•was the visitors, (This ought to make Goderich blush even at this late day.) The winning team was made up 0f the following: Ross, Janus, Kerr, Cantelon, McKinnen, Scruton, Gib- bin •s, 'Hewitt, Burden, May, Yet- lowieas, Kennedy,` Morrish. The ladies of Clinton will feel un- der a debt of gratitude to the pourel` cillor or other official who will have the grass cut along' the sidewalks; Many a dress, some of them costly, has been spoiled by conning in con- tact with the long, wet grass. (Since then women have . shortened their dresses. Perhaps it was a case of necessity as'long grass at the sides of the sidewalks are. still with us, at least to some extent.)' Mr. Thomas Whitely of Goderieh was a caller at the News -Record office on Saturday and renewed his subscription for another year to this paper. He was on his return fronl.Pcerelia, whither he had been called eying to the death of Mrs. John Whitely, who was a 'tisiter of, Mrs. Robt. Acheson and Mrs. Wmi Edward of Goderich township. While in Clinton 3fr. Whitely took a look through some of the vacant stores with a view to locating in merchan- dising here. (We sometimes hear it said that the "former times were better than these" but, with the ex- ception of a couple of places where the Jackson Company offices were up Rattenbury street, there are no va- cant stores in Clinton in this year of grace, despite the "depression.") The old Latin author, Ovid, who was born B.C. 43 and died A.D. 18, gives the following receipt to wash out wrinkles: "Take equal parts of bean and barley meal and mix with raw egg. When the mass is their oughly dry era hard it should be ground into a fine ptwde-I'and merle into an ointment with melted talloe and honey. A thick layer of thio applied to the face every night was warranted to smooth cut all wrinkles and make the stein as soft as a baby's.•" (A trial of the above aright save a visit to the beauty parlor. Or, per- haps the beauty parlor people might like to try it on their patrons.) Miss Sophia Kilty, wise is an ex - Pert telegraph operator as well as, an exceptionally fine young lady socially, left town on Monday for Northern Michigan, near Houghton where she has accepted a situation. The best wishes sof a largo number of friends will accompany her and The News -Record heartily joins in thein. Some Notes From Goderich: DIr•. and Mrs. G. M'eTaggart were in town 011 Friday.

Smyth, will preach in the morning, Rev. Dr. Stewart, in the evening. A collection of 5100 is to be asked for and as it is to meet church requirements there is every probability that the amount will be given. At the regular meeting of the quarterly board of Rattenbury street church on Tuesday evening the fol- lowing stewards were reappointed: W. R. Lough, W. Doherty, H. Stev- ens, W. Cantelon, S.

The boys were not nearly as bad on Halowe'en as on previous occas- ions, perhaps the presence of both constables, Wheatley and Welsh, 011 the streets had a salutary effect. This week W.

VALUE OF HONEY AS A FOOD i•Toney, trent the standpoint of food value and at present price ley- els, is cheaper than almost any of the everyday articles of diet. As well as being Nature's choicest sweet, honey is one of Nature's most complete foods. It contains carbohy- drates in the form of sugar, salts of lime, iron, magnesium and potash and a certain amount of protein, all of which are necessary for the nourish- ment .of the body. Honey is a food that requires no digestion. its sugar's are already in- verted and are directly available for assimilation by the body, tissues; thus honey is a quick source of en- ergy. Professor Ilawk of,_Tefferscn Med- eel College, U.S.A.. a leading auth- ority on foods, found through careful experimentation that bread eaten with honey digests as quickly as bread eaten aloins although the food value is doubled. Honey canbe used as a sweetening agent it practically 'every instance where cane sugar or cheaper syrups are used. It is an excellent sweet for t'aw or preserved fruits, bevel, ages, iceerea•m, cakes,' candies , and salads. In bliss Morley's book "The Honey :rakers", mention is made of an old Hindu legend which claims that hall - PV brings strength;.. wealth, good fortune, knowledge and offspr!ng to lean.-43Vhat more could one ask of tiny food?

A SONG FOR NOVEMBER Rain on the roof! Waking old woes that long have lain, Beating a dirge in a minor strain, No escaping remorse and pain With rale on the roof. Wind in the eaves! A wind that's lost the joy of the wild Softly sobs like a tear -weary child, A wind that's prisoned, paitrtive unci, The wind in the eaves. Fire on the hearth! Hammer away, relentless rain, Whimpering wind you cry in vain, Light and laughter return again With fire on the hearth. —Molly Bevan. o==iteeee THE FALLEN LEAF (From the French of Arnault.) Poor fallen leaf, where goost thou, Detached from off thy stem ? The leaf replied, I do not know; The strong wind drives me to and fro From mountain to the glen. The oak tree was my one support, But stormy tempest came, And broke its spreading branches strong And then it harried me along From forest to the plain. Without complaint or fear I go Where go the other leaves. The rose and laurel driven fart, Submissive to the Northern blast Or be the zephyr breeze. Rev. Lawrence Sinclair, I•Iuntsville, Ont. • c=1= JUST A PRAYER 011 God, now send Thy gracious pow - To socthe. each saddened heart, And lend the peace and solace sweet, Which Thou only cans't impart. Uplift the heads by sorrow bowed, And dry the tear -dimmed eyes; To burdened souls reveal Thyself And the hopes of Paradise. Be ever near the sad, dear Lord! About the mourners' pillow keep The visions of Thy conquered tomb, An earth's last triumphant sleep. And grant to all thy children, In afflictions great or small, The hearing of that voice which said: "I CAME TO SHARE THEM ALL!" —Virnal M. E. 'Truesdell, Kingston, Ont., in Ottawa Citizen. INDIAN SUMMER The sin itt burnished splendor rides above The golden land; the burnt -gold of the sun Fills every petal. Every flow'ring weed Reflects the golden webs by sun• shine spun. A purple mist hangs over hill and vale, And asters vie, with their: fringed blooms, to catch Its royal tint; as on their strong, tall stems They nod to goldenrod—their cen- tres match. The farmer's barn is stored with golden grain; o.) While in hid fields Hid tacit is standing, still. Beneath, • bright, golden pumpkins smiling,. wait His garnering, ere winds blow wild and shrill. This Second Sumner, with its boun- teous wealth Of sun and fruit, 'of generous earth and tree, Is but a presage of munificence Of Heavenly gold, that thy God holds for thee. —.Ethel M. Hall. NOVEMBER TWILIGHT The leaves lie sodden, silent and forgotten, A low grey mist a sombre mantle weaves For trees that Snood; and all is des- olation Of sighing winds around the black. ened eaves. Now comes the rain anti beats the burnished bushes Until submissively they bend and sway. To will more urgent, fitfully forget- ting That eager feet once walked their greening way. Within the shelter of a pine -tree thicket The sparrows fret; the blue -jays , scream and scold; A pair •cf tardy robins shake their I plumage And wonder at a day grown strangely. old. The night disconsolate wing+ her greying shadows Over the hilts—the dusky day is done; And weary gardens fold themselves in slumber To dream of certain waiting, one by one. —Ella H. Eckell, in the Canadian Magazine. TA11'IE DUCK There are duce tamed` clucks in our backyard,. Y ,. Dabbing in mud and trying hard To get their share, and maybe more, Of the ,overflowing barnyard store. Satisfied with the task they're at Of eating and sleeping and getting fay But whenever the free wild ducks go by In a long line streaming down the sky, They cock a quizzical, puzzled eye And flap'theit' wings and try to fly. I think ley soul is a tame old duck, Dabbling around in barnyard.muck, Fat and lazy, with useless wings. But sometimes when the north wind sings And the wild ones hurtle overhead It remembers something lost and dead And cocks a wary, bewildered eye. And makes a feeble attempt to fly. It's fairly content with the state it's in, But it isn't the duck it 'night have been. —Kenneth Kaufman, in the Literary Digest. cam[ SYMPATHY He had suffered pain and knew All his friend was going through. He had known long weeks of dread Tossing on a sleepless bed. He had watched that narrow hall For a friend to come and call. So he journeyed from his way Just a cheery ward to say.
