ed weaving itself into a cucoon and
it is now in its silken bed and we
are keeping it in a jar to see what
kind of moth or butterfly will result.
The caterpillar was about 4 inches
long and light green inzcolor. It has
two sets of legs, 8 heavy duty and
one toward the back of its body and
six smaller ones toward the front. On
its back it had 12 spikes, some orange

around as a man's thumb and was
some feeder as it devoured four leav-
es in a very short time.

MASSEY SAYS
IMPERIAL ISSUES.
AT STAKE
Bennett to Continue Reform With
Security, Says Massey
Large Crowd Attended Spotton Rally
In The Arena
In the sweltering heat at the aren
on Friday evening, Mr, Denton Mas
sey put the crowd in good humour b
saying he was a hot conservative an
immediately took off his coat. H
stated he had a great and high regar
for George Spotton who was a man o
conviction, outstanding principles an
who had at times exercised a spirit o
independence. 1Ie felt sure Mr. Spot
ton would again be elected as membe
for North Huron.
Mr. J. W. McKibbon acted as chair
man and on the platform besides Mr
Massey and Mr, Spoton were, Mr
John Joynt of Lucknow, a forme
member; Mayor John W. Hanna,,who
introduced Mr. Massey to the and
fence; J. H. A. McEwan, Mayor of
Goderich and President o fthe North
Huron Liberal Association; E. D. Bell
of Brussels, secretary of the associa-
tion; Duncan Sinclair, Conservative
candidate for North Wellington; Fost-
er Moffatt, former member of South
Bruce; Col. H. 13. Coombs and h;s
daughter Agnes of Clinton; Carl
Draper, president of the Clinton Ass-
ociation; and J. J. Kerr of East Wa-
wanosh.
Many Ladies Present
Mr. Massey was pleased to see so
many ladies present and said when
the women become workers the elect-
ion is won.
The Conservative party have the
materials of construction said Mr.
Massey and recalled that we are facing
no ordinary election. People are
challenged by the times and should
give full time and thought to matters
of State.
Recalling the election of 1930 he
said when Mr Bennett and his govern-
ment were elected that was 'an ad-
verse balance of trade, export and im-
port trade had declined, unemploy-
ment was great, the C. N. R. had
great deficit, huge commitments had
benn made for public works and there
was a large carry over of wheat.
Now after 5 years of Bennett Gov-
ernment administration there is a
favourable balance of trade of $152,-
000,000, that Canadian trade was
above the average of the world. Un-
employment he said was still a serious
factor but was much less than when
at the peak. In Empire trade Canada
he said is now in 2nd, place within
the Empire and in 1930 it was llth.
The secretariate of the League of
Nations has stated that the rate of re-
covery in Canada is greater than in
any other country in the world.
Mr. Massey said it is performance
that counts, results that count and
that Mr. Bennett had given protect-
ion tarriffs to Canada and shown re-
sults, Imperial Issues are at stake he
said, in 1935 we face a National Crisis
by the fact that great work is being
