Skunks Prey ort Chicks - Many Carrick farmers inform us that their crop of poultry is going to be light this fall, due to the depre- dations of skunks, It is estimated a thousand or more chickens have been destroyed bytliese odious visitors in Carrick this summer, and if the pro- tection to these animals is continued we'will soon have more skunks than chickens in this part of the country. In former years hunters would dig the skunks and their families out of their dens, and then dispose of their pelts, but this is now prohibited, with badresults to the poultry trade. - Mildmay: Gazette. CITY CHILDREN NEED YOUR HELP "Happy day are here again!" were the joyous shouts of the 'children bringing home' their school bags for the summer. "Happy days! What •are they? And where" are the unhappy cries of hundreds of our downtown Toronto 'children. These cannot remember happiness. Dark upon their lives has fallen the shadow of this strife. They bear on their minds and bodies the marks 'of four years depression. Last winter was the saddest. Homes have become sordid and bare. Parents live in constant fear and anxiety. All the laughter has gone from their hearts. Life is - serious for these children of the unemployed. Sumtne.r days offer to thein, dirty pavements,stifling heat, smoke -lad- en air and streets dangerous with the heavy traffic which roles them of joy and a healthy- wholesome appetite. What are the things which make glad the heart of 'the child in the summer time? r The chance to, romp and play in the sunshine, to swing under the ap- ple tree, to, play in a pool of water, to watch the bird and animal life, to wait for a snail to crawl out of the house on his back. The .country has suffered equally in the people have in abundance, the these 'difficult days but some things. beauty of God's -world and the heal- ing of the sun's best rays,- a chance to look up at the stars and be glad for the peace which restores a sense of joyous living no matter what the hardships. We covet those joys for Toronto's. denied little children. Health and happiness must be given to, thein this summer. Hundreds sit on." their shad- owed doorstep,, that we are hoping to -send to the country ,for a period of two weeks, It is a tremendous task. Rural Ontario has been kind in the past, This year we ask for your help as we have never done be- fore, -so much greater is the need.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS Attractive Windows A home's interior furnishings can be judged to a certain extent from the outside, That is, folks, get an. 'idea of the interior's beauty by judg- ing by the looks of the windows — the drapes., how ther're hung, their color :and fabric, 'etc, And, naturally, it's most important that every wo- man should use good taste in arrang- ing thein for attractiveness' sake al- one. My suggestion is: Use any pretty cretonne, linen or other curtain materials for drapes. Line them when necessary. Replace your old fashioned iron curtain rods with pointed poles and rings. Pick out the two most desired and harmonious color effects in -your ma- terial and paint poles and brack- ets accordingly. An interesting way to do this is to have a few of your friends help you with your painting. Make a party of it. Serve refreshments and at the end of an afternoon the bulk if not all of your painting will have been accomplishedand when your ,curtainsmains are hung your home will have an air of newness and beauty. Do not paint your rings, but dip them and string them an stout„wire to dry. -p. How to Clean Brass” Chandeliers Wash brass chandeliers with hot vinegar and salt. Rinse with soap suds.- Dry.
