• Appearance alone has sold Rib -Roll roofing
to thousands of farmers .. but it is
economy, fire protection andpermanence
that keeps it sold. Wherever you go in
Ontario these handsome roofs are familiar
land -marks ... protecting millions of dollars
worth of crops, stock and property. RIB-
ROLL's success has caused it to be widely
imitated—but Rib -Roll alone has the rigidity,
ease of erection, durability, low cost and
absolute fire protection which make it the
foremost roofing value in Canada today.
An Unbeatable Combination
RIB -ROLL Roofing and Preston LED -HED
nails make a roofing cotnbination impossible
to beat. The cost of laying RIB -ROLL is
lower than nearly all other types of roofing.
When you use LED -HED nails you get a
rigid, handsome, tight -jointed roof that de-
fies fire and weather. The nails are speci-
ally designed withlead heads which com-
pletely seal the nail hole. There are no
•
awkward washers ... no threading or punch-
ing. Write for samples of RIB -ROLL and
Preston LED -HED
Preston Metal Ceilings
The enduring quality and beauty of
Preston metal ceilings have made

fices. Preston METAL CEILINGS
are permanent. They retain their

Scheolmaster Thinks He Will Be
Better Man Than His'
a m et ng o ubUe Schee
headmaetere in land the otho
day the psesicteet eald that the WY
of taglay was. going to be a better
naan, than his father..
He need hardly have talked in the
future tense, says a correspondent In
'ffit-13its, for all around us we see
boys who east already beat their fath-
ers. In brainand games alike the
modern bey is going ahead in a way
paralyzing to the elder generation,
and not the least startling point
about hint is that he In so very much
bigger in size and stronger in muscle
than his father was at the sense age.
HIS skill in games is astonishing.
the final of a Boys' Billiards
Oliampionehip, a lad •of only fourteen,
named Gartlend., made .a break of
one hundrecj and fourteen, a feat sel-
dom equalled by men of any age ex-
cept professional players.
Youth Is also coming into its own
in the United States, where Olcott
Zarn, a boy of sixteen, won the dog
derby at Ashton, Idaho. The distance
its twenty-five miles, and young Zarn
had against him no fewer than seven
veterans of the snow trails. He won
by one minute fifty-seven seconds
from the well-known Warren Cord-
ingley, doing the whole distance in
the astonishingly quicketime of just
over two hours. and twenty - two
minuet*.
At golf, V. S. Tineson, a boy of
fourteen, eatered for the Junior Divi-
sion of the Peace Challenge • Cups
Competition of the North Foreland
Club- In the first round he beat his
-father, who was donceding him two
strokes, by five and four. In the set
eond stage he, met his elder brother
on level terms, and, after a tremen-
• dous struggle, 'won 'by a single hole.
• At lawn tennis boys as well as
girls, are doing wonders. Some years
ago the great A. F. Wilding, who
then held the lawn tennis champion-
ship of England, was defeated in
Paris by W. H. ,Laureutz, a by of
sixteen, in the final of the French
championship. Wilding was one of
the greatest stayers ever seen on a
court, yet, though five sets had to be
played before a result could be ar-
rived at, Laurentz gradually • wore
down and so vanquished the older
man. '
Speaking of endurance, one of the
most remarkable feats of pluck and
endurance combined was that of a
teen -year-old boy named Frank Mc-
Millan, who rode from Bolton, Lan-
cashire, to London on a bicycle in
less than twenty-four hours, carrying
a message from a local newpaper to
a London daily.
The distance is 200 miles and the
weather Was very wet for part of the
time. All the way from Manchester
to Leek it poured without stopping,
and at Leok young McMillan stopped
for two hours to dry his soaked
clothes.
In brains, as well as itt brawn, the
twentieth-century boy seems to excel
previous generations, for a twelve-
year -old pupil at the •Liverpool Col-
lege actually qualified for entrance to
Oxford 'University.
This • boy's name is Harry Mace,
and, speaking of his success, the
Vice -Chancellor of Oxford University
said that in all his experience he had
never heard of a similar ease or of a
boy so young qualifying.

IMMIX LAWYERS ASSEMBLE.
Middle Temple, London, Deecribed as
the "Great American Inn."
The Carnegie Endowment -for In-
ternational Peace has allotted $7,000 .
for th purchase of American law
books and reports for use in the lib-
rary of the Middle Temple, London,
where many barristers have their law
offices.
Gen. Dawes, the United States am-
bassador, was recently elected "hon-
orary beneher" of the Middle Tem-
ple Inn. Benelters aro the eoetrolling
powers of the various "Inns of Court"
which examine and admit candidates
for the Bar.
Joseph H. Choate who was a
bencher, once described the Middle
Temple as the "great American Inn,"
five of the signatories of the Americau Declaration of Independence
having been members and having re-
ceived their law training within its
doors.
Almost "Mentally Deficien"
Miss Jenny I.,ee, the young Labor
member for Lanark in the British
Parliament, tells a good story against
herself.
During her studentship at a Scot-
tish University she had to undergo
an iatelligenee test, On the theoreti-
cal side she was lucky enough, to
strike a series of questions she eould
answer easily, and in consequence
earned marks so high as to be be-
yond "Excellent," and almost amount
to "Genius."
She was so delighted' withthis re-
sult that she took little trouble with
the practical side of the examinaion,
and the marks she gained were so
low as to come near the "Mentally
.Defleient" line. Her parents remind
her from time to time so that she
shall not beeonte conceited.
New Flying Wonder,
An airplane has boon built for the
special purpose of photographing an
area of 68,000 square miles in
Northern Rhodesia.
The machine is literally an *aerial
photogra.phie studio. It can be flown
to a height of 20,000 feet and re-
main at this altitude for seven and a
half hours While its pilot and photo-
grapher map the coins:try below.
The airplane has two engines, and
should one fail the other Is suffi-
ciently Powerful to enable the ma -
chino to continue in safety. As most
of the flights will be over wild creme
try, thin is an important paint.

•Oh, the clanging bells of Time!
• Night :and day they never cease;
We are wearied with their ehiene,
For they do riot bring us peace;
And we hush our breath to hear,
And we straits our eyes to see,
If thy shores are cleaving near,
Eternity! Eternity!
Oh, the elaning bells of Time!
How their changes rise and fall;
But in undertone sublime,
Sounding clearly thro' them all,
Is a voice that must be heard,
As our moments onward flee;
And it speaketh aye one word,
• Eternity! Et ernityl
Oh, the clanging bels of Time!
To their voices, loud and low,
in a long, unresting line
We are marching to and fro:
And we yearn for sight or Sound
Of the life that iS to be
For thy breath doth wrap us routid—
Etdrnity! Eternity!
Oh, the clanging bells of Thne!
Soon their notes will all be dumb,
And in joy and peace sublime
We shall feel the silence come!
And our souls their thirst will slake,
And our eyes 'the King will see,
When the glorious morn shall break
• Eternity! Eternity!
This striking little hymn was' writ-
ten. by Palen M. Huntington, a Unit,
ed States lady living in Elisabeth, N.
J., who married' a Mr. Gates, and was,
a deeply interested friend of the ev-
angelistic singers and preachers, P.
P. Bliss, P. Phillipps and Ira D. San-
key:- It was given by its author, Mrs.
Gates, to was,
Sankey in 1876, but
does not seem to havi:: inspired' that
gentleman to set the. words to music
After :carrying it in his pocket for
several, months Mr. Sankey handed it
to his friend, Mr. Bliss, with a re-
quest that lie would find a tune to it.
Three dayS later he handed Mr. San-
key the tune printed, above to which
it has generally been sung ever since.
Mrs. Gates Wrote a good deal of
poetry and published at least two
volumes of verse, "Your Mission" in
1881, ''which contains our hymn, and
"The Marble House." In the first
mentioned book are to be found also
the pathetic lines printed 'a few mon-
ths ago, among our Readings and Re-
citations, entitled "Beautiful Hands".
She Was as well the writer of such
well-known sacred songs -Which Mr.
Sankey made popular as L".1 will sing
you a song of that beautiful land,''
"Come home, 0ontconte Mne," "If :you
cannot on the ocean," etc.
This noted singing revivalist used
in later years to preface his singing
of our"hymn with the story of Rob-
ert Annan of Dundee,' bad man of
his own town until the thought its
words convey of eternity were thrust
into his soul at -an evangelistic meet -
isles After that he became a devoted
gospel missio na ry among his fellow -
workmen,
One morning as he kit his cottage
for his work, he stooped down and
wrote with chalk on the flagstone of
the pavement that one Word, "Eter-
nity!" •
A minute or two later he saw a
child fail from a vessel in the 'harbor
into the sea. Throwing off his coat

ing and swimming he rescued the lit-
tle one, bet lost his own life in doing
so. • Those mem carried home his

Being one of a series of chats with Wingharn businessmen
itt striska it is suggested how they may increase their

our
HEN your merchandise turnover is
sluggish and your revenue falls off it's
• time to look your business squarely in
the eye.
Looking, you're likely to find two particu-
larly disturbing factors. One is that some of
your customers are shopping outside of Wing -
ham. The other is that these same customers,
and some others also, are buying from mail or-
der houses.
Disturbing as these conditions are,' adver-
tising is a way of getting around them. Adver-
tising, that is, where it can do you the most
good, advertising where your customers are
certain to see it—advertising in your local
home newspaper.
Your own advertising is essential, There's.
no doubt of that. But if your merchandise
turnover is to speed up and stay that way, the
advertising support of the manufacturers
NVII0Se commodities you handle is just as nec-
essary. •• — '4"1
And you can go a long way in enlisting the
support of these manufacturers quite easily.
When the salesmen of the manufacturers
whose goods you stock call on yOtt, impress
them with this thought:
If you are to do any sizable amount of busi-
ness you innst keep Wh4_,Thant's folk coming to
your stores and that advertising. in yonr local
home newspaper-vour own and that of the
manufaeturer—is therefore an absolute neces-
sity.
Make NS thought impressive enough and
the salenien are bound toconvev it to their
home offices where advertising moneys are de-
cided upon and advertising media selected.
