OF 'INTEREST TO . YOU
AND ME
Now that George Young and Mar-
,aret Ravior are married we sup-
pose they will get along just swim
•mingly.
Reeve Walter McKibben was on
Monday evening last elected by ac-
clamation for the tenth time. Per-
•haps they 'might as well make the
appointment a permanent one. The
genial Winghan reeve ought to un-
derstand the
n-derstand:the affairsof that town by
this date, and that's what citizens
seem to want to be sure of these
times.
What about municipal affairs in
'Clinton? Are we to have dn election
or are we going to carry on with the
Old council? One councillor' will
'have to be chosen to fill the vacancy
left by the lamented death of Her -
"heft °rich, and that being done it
might be just as well to return the
.council 'by, acclamation for another
'year. It would save expense, al••
'though the expense of an election in
a. town like Clinton is very small,
'hardly worth •considering if there
-were any need for an election. But
3t is entirely up to the ratepayers
Nomination day will show.
Goderich township is getting front
;page in the city dailies and editorial
mention all on account of winding
up its municipal affairs with a nice
surplus, no debt and ahnost'all taxes
in. Goderich township is to be con-
gratulated on its fine financial pos-
ition, many a municipality would be
glad to step into its shoes. But this"'
enviable position has not been gain-,
ed by chance. - It has been the habit
of successive township councils ` to
watch the expenditures closely; to
insist upon payment of taxes, • so
that the expense of administering the
affair's of the municipality should
fall upon all, justly, and to see that
fair returns were received from all
outlays.'
Then, of course, the residents of
that goal old township are a thrifty
industrious class of farmers, men
who use intelligence in their work
as well as in the election to public
office of then who will carry out
their will in public affairs. They,
managed 'their affairs with wisdom.
during prosperous tines .and the
times of depression have not put
them in a panic. They are not mak-
ing ends meet today, of course,
what farmers are? But they are bid-
ing their time and will be ready for
the upward trend when it comes. But
we'd be willing to wager something
that there are townships, towns and
even cities and nations which would
he happy to have their financial af-
fairs in as comfortable a state as
those of Goderich township and we
shall never have real prosperity
until all our public bodies use some
of the careful, thrifty methods of
the public officials of: that muni,
cipality. It is well to have these af-
fairs widely known so that the me-
thods may be copied.
A mother who has often con'ipli-
mO'tt:ed us linen our women's page
called the other morning to say that
she thought we should put "Rebekah"
nn th,a front page, as many who might
be interested or encouraged by read-
ing her column do not take the trouble
to read past the local page, We can-
not very well give this feature front
page prominence but we would re-
commend our readers to read ALL
the pages of The News -Record.' They
would find them all interesting.. The

ments as well as the news. All is for
you, a knowledge of it all may help
or benefit or stinmlate.
Word comes from London, Eng., of
a new drug which is supposed to im-
part great 'strength to men. It has
not yet been tried on human beings
but it is said to make cats fight clogs
and mice stand up to cats and van-
quish them. But do we want that
sort of a drug, aren't men quarrel-
some enough as it is? What this
old war -weary world needs is an ex-
tra helping of the milk of human
kindness absorbed into the hearts of
people; a drug injected into their
veins which would snake men kind-
lier, more forgiving, more ready to
help an unfortunate brother than
to snatch some material good for
themselves. What the inventer of
that drug needs to do is hire a ves-
sel, sail out into the middle of the
Atlantic, tie a stone to his invention,
cast it overboard, burn up any
written formula and forget all a-
bout it. The world does not need
better fighters, it needs better
peace -makers; it d.cesn't need more
people who are ready to grab and
hold all they can get, it needs people
who are ready to divide with those
who are in greater need; people who
take the Golden Rule for their rule of
life. That is the world's greatest
present need. We do not need any
new drug to make us more aggres-
sive or acquisitive, we're too much
that way already.
Old Pioneer of Hullett
Passes
There passed away at his home,
Lot 9, •Ccn. 11, Hullett, on Friday
morning, Nov. 25th, an old and re-
spected resident in the person of
William 'Jenkins.

reside in this locality all his life.
On April 10th, 1867, he was married

township, who predeceased him
thirteen years ago. After their
marriage they took up house keep-
ing on the farm now owned by Hes-
selwood Bros., Hullett, Purchasing
a hush farm half a mile east of
there, they then hewed out a home
for themselves, clearing the land
acre by acre. IIe was of U•ish des-
cent, a man of upright character and
was highly respected throughout
the community. In politics he was a
staunch Conservative. He was an
honorary member of Londesboro L.

Mr, Jenkins is survived by one
son, John, on the homestead and
three daughters, Mrs. Philip James
of Wingham; Mrs. John Watkins of

so.
The funeral, which was held from
his late home, was held on Monday
afternoon, the services being con-
ducted by the Rev. Mr. Gardiner of
Londesobro United Church, of which
he was almost a life-long member.

had been unable to attend its ser-
vices. Interment was made in Clin-
ton. cemetery. The pallbearers were
a son-in-laW, Mr. John Watkins, two
grandsons, Harry and Billie Watkins,

from the family, the W.M.S. of Lon-
desboro United church, the Women's
