Canada continues to disclose her many resources. Just now on the IVlattagami River deposits of china •clay are being brought to the point of production. * ,, a:.* Monday was St. Swithin's Day and, according to the old saying, we ought to have forty days of dry weather, :as no rain fell on Monday. But prob ably we shall have a shower -occasion- :ally, hope so anyway. & * King Albert of Belgium went in swimming the other day and some miscreant came along and stole his clothes. It'was a mean trick. Sup- pose King Ab. had to hide in the 'bushes until after dark before he could go home. Women may be equal, Vat a man doesn't persuade some friend to go with him to the barber• shop for moral support.—Kingston Whig - Standard. Oh, that's all 'right. But how about going to a church supper or a • bazaar? ro * r s After seeing the depredations' .of blackbirds in destroying small birds' nests, digging up corn, eating garden peas and. picking the cherries, one -naturally wonders just what good 'they do to compensate for their noisy chatter and destruction.--Farmer's -Advocate. h * A * The total amount spent on the im- provement and maintenance of Cana- dian roads annually is well over ;845,000,000. —Montreal Herald.

Usually there is more business done in the .last week Parliament sits- than in six weeks ; at the beginning of the session. The shortening of the ses- sion is in the hands of, the members themselves. _ • m * w * The -Goderich Signal says anyone who wants evidence as to the compar- ative merits of newspapers and hand- bills for advertising need only look in the postoffice waste basket after a lot of circulars have beenput in the mail.- One doesn't have to take ,the trouble to go back to"find the waste- basket. The evidence is always strewn thickly and untidily'upon the 'floor in Clinton. The patience of the caretaker must often be tried by the number 'of pieces of "direct" adver- tising which box holders throw upon the floor without ' even looking at them. While, a number, no 'doubt, carry such mail matter home and dis- pose of it there, it is doubtful if more than twenty per cent. is actually read, unless it be of a very unusual char- actei. The Canadian Legion, Provincial Command, meeting in -St. Thomas last week, passed a resolution asking, the Government to pass a law making it an offence to fly any flag on any building in Canada, excepting the hone of an ambassador ' or consul, which is under internation law, unless accompanied by the Union Jack, and that tourists be compelled to fly the Union Jack if they wish to display that of their own country. tf everyone setting out on week - .end jaunts registered a resolve to ,;do a little more than a fair share to - ,'ward avoiding accidents the weekly toll of killed and maimed would soon be reduced., Probably ninety-nine put of every one hundred accidents pf every sort could be avoided by pare on somebody's part,. If irres- ons,,ible people continue to drive cars hensible folk will have to do their. thinking for them ;as faras possible.

For years visitors, at least some of them, from the United States were in the habit of coming over here flying - the Stars and Stripes without dis- playing the Union Jack. , This is an act of discourtesy which Canadians one and all resent, while they may not always protest. But latterly, no doubt owing to the fact that the mat- ter has been called to their attention, our southern. cousins have not been offending in this regard so much. We have seen many cars this season fly- ing the -Stars and Stripes but not one have we seen without the Union Jack in the highest ;place, which is but courteous and just. Canada does well to insist upon being treated with proper respect by any visitor, within her borders. And when. Canadians tour another country we trust they will be guilty of no act of disrespect to the flag of the country they visit. After all the.law'of good manners be- tween nations is much the same as that between individuals. Those who do not wish topay proper respect to their hosts should stay at home. To- live at the ,end of a railway line, even though a .beautiful town and situated upon a beautiful lake, as Goderich is, seems to have a pe- culer disadvantage. Goderich should be .the. mecca during all the long summer days of many seeking the. coolness of lake breerse and it is, no doubt, to, those fortunate enough to have transportation facilities of their own but no one who -depends upon publicconveyances can go to Goderieh for a few hours unless pre- pared to spend' a night.

'Mee Rita Cudmore who has been visiting her sister, Mrs. Douglas Ward, of Elmira, has returned home. Mr, and l\4r•s. Ward motored up and spent a night recently at the home of the latter's parents, Mr. and Mrs: John Cudmore. The many friends of Miss Dill Cox are pleased to learn that she is do- ing nicely after an operation for ap- pendicitis in the Clinton Hospital. John Easton. and Edgar Trewartha motored. to London on Friday and attended ''the Orange celebration there. ' A number • are in Goderich this week attending the Summer 'school. Service in • the United Church Sunday morning was in charge of the Y.M.C.A. of Stratford, three members of that organization being present, Messrs. Harvey, Bryant and Wayner. Mr. Bryant opened the service while Mr. Harvey preached the sermon. The latter was com- pelled to return to Stratford at the close of. the church service but Mr. Bryant and Mr: Wagner remained for the Sunday school service. The Adult Junior Bible Class was taken by Mr. Bryant who also gave a short talk to the assembled school after which Mr.; Wagner joined hint in leading the school in a new ehggr us. Mr. Bryant also preached at Sh'Th on and Ebenezer while Mr., Wagner assisted with the music:. Between services Mr. Bryant and Mr, Wagner were entertained at the honie of Mr. -and Mrs. John Potter. Pilliam Irvine of Wetaskiwin, a member Alberta in, the Domin- ion Parliament, advocated strongly doubt explained by the fact that the meeting of= Parliament, say 'bus. line is operated by people who inne early g over the are' not interested' in' Goderich. Why' November. with a recess N oven , - see l - twake u and Cuhrjstmas holidays, so that an earlier doesn t Goderich p t' f thing altered? All train and bus service carries -people away from Goderich, not to it. The train service is managed to'serve the 'greatest number' of people,, no doubt. It is a good man service in, and anyone wishing to ;go. to Toron- to fora day's business can take the morning train, have several hours in the city and return by b.edtime.'But no one can come up from Toronto, Guelph, Stratford or :Clinton' and have any more time than to swallow g -`hurried dinner before returning.
