Extravagance Ottawa—"You can look anywhere over the length of this Dominion, at either coast, in any Province, almost in any city, and see blazing instances of extravagance," declared Right Hon. Arthur Meighen, Government Leader in the Senate, in an address bristling with criticism of the former manageni'ent of the Canadian Nation- al Railways. "It is an extravagance wholly at the expense of the taxpay- ers, an extravagance which is the principal chain that ties Canada to- day." Wins Bye -Election By One Vote Summerside, P.E.L,—Dr. John F. MacNeill, Liberal, was declared elect- ed Assemblyman for the Fifth Dis- trict of Prince at the formal declara- tion day proceedings.

Speaker Maybe It's a Second Spring Last \veek a branch of ripe black berries was found on the side of the road and brought to .is. One of Thompson's cream and egg collectors reports an apple tree in full bloom on his route. Are these featuring a second Spring, or are they just freaks of Nature, We don't know what to think, as many such reports are drift- ing in. Miss Lillian Button also brought to our office several beauti- fully filled twigs of tame raspberries from her garden, second growth. The foliage and berries were as nice as those of the regular crop. —Teeswat- er News. -;t Unsolved Mystery J' Dave Gwyn, East Wawanosh, was acquitted of theft by Magistrate Reid in police court here. Dave was alleg- ed to have stolen a spade and shovel from Bill Kechnie. One of Mr. Kechnie's witnesses swore he saw a spade and shovel which looked sus- piciously like the Kechnie tools, from a distance of 75 feet, leaning alp against the Gwyn house. Magistrate Reid ruled that 75 feet was too great a distance at which to positively iden- tify either a spade or a shovel, and so dismissed the case. Anyway, after the information had been laid the spade and shovel were found in a thistle patch just inside the Kechnie fence, evidently having been thrown there of recent date, so that all is well.—Goderich Star. Deer Fractures Its Neck On Tuesday morning a deer met a tragic death on Adam Hossfeld's farm on the Walkerton road. The animal' had evidently been frightened and in jumping the road fence into a field came into contact with an elm tree, fracturing its neck. It was near- ly dead when discovered. The ear - sass was taken to the Children's Shelter at Walkerton.—Mildray Ga- zette. Hydro Vote on Friday The vote on the Hydro by-laws on Friday, October 14th, will decide whether Mildmay will become a part- ner in the great provincial Hydro en- terprise, and thus share in the divi- dends earned or remain on the out- side and have the other municipalit- ies in this section benefit by the rat- es we pay.—Mildmay Gazette. Immense Walnut Young Donald MacDonald brought into the office this week, a monster, walnut, measuring almost 10 inches in circumference, and which nnich resembled a large pear. At his home there are four walnut trees, one of which bears a crop such as the sam pie exhibited and evidently is a dif- ferent'variety from the other trees. The outer covering of the nut is just of ordinary thickness, resulting in a nut of immense size, and with a bag- full of such, it wouldn't take Santa Claus long to fill your Christmas stocking,—Lticknow Sentinel. An Acre a Day— Mr, George Dobson plowed with one team of horses this fall twenty brought into this office a potato grown on his farm on the North line.

PROBLEMS OF THE MODERN HOME, THE SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON Sunday, Oct, 23 -Joshua 24:14, 15; Mark 10: 2-12; Ephesians 6; 1-9, Golden Text. -As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.—Josh. .25:15. In a good many lives there is no home in which to have any problems. The following significant item has been published in various papers: "A real estate salesman tried to sell a house to a newly married couple. Said the wife: "Why buy a home? I was born in a hospital ward, reared in a boarding school, educated in a college, courted in an automobile, and married in a church. I get my meals at a cafeteria, live in an apartment, spend my mornings playinggolf and my afternoons playing bridge; in the evening we dance or go to the mov- ies; when I am sick I go to the hos- pital, and when I die I shall be bur- ied from an undertaker's. All we need is a garage and a bedroom.' " There is too much truth in this cy- nical satire on modern life. On the other hand, we may well be thankful that there are many true homes in Christian lands, and even in heathen lands where the Gospel has been re- ceived. But in truly Christian homes, and in homes that are not Christian but that are centres of much that is lovely and admirable, problems are PAGE SEVN No other food you cunt buy will give yon So much delicious anourishmput for such (Attie cost as CROWN BRAND CORN SYRUP.-. the famous economy food.

Have children any duty to obey their parents? 'There is widespread and popular teaching today that answers "No" to both questions. Such teaching is law- lessness pure and simple; it is given in defiance of God and His plainly revealed will, and it only creates un- necessary problems in the home, but it brings chaos and wreck. "Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this right" That is the message of the Holy Spirit to child- ren of every generation and of every land. The apostle Paul continues, by inspiration: "Honor thy father and mother, which is the first command- ment with promise,` that it may be well with thee." The idea of honor- ing parents is laughed to scorn in many quarters today, and a tragic harvest is being reaped from this kind of sowing. But there are two sides to it. "And ye fathers, provoke not your children .sure to arise, and some of these prob- towrath, but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord." Love is the solution of the parent - and -children ;problem . in the home, together with the true wisdom that is found only'in the Scriptures and with faith in Christ as Saviour and Lord. lems make up our lesson. The question of "religion" in the home lies at the root of all other problems. It is not a new question; it was an old question in Joshua's day, more than fourteen centuries be- fore Christ came. Some of the Is- raelites, God's chosen people, were dabbling in false religions. Their fa- thers had done the same thing long before. Joshua pleads with the peo- ple to "fear the Lord, and serve Him in sincerity and in truth: and put away the gods which your fathers served," With a touch of irony, Joshua con- tinales;"And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other •side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell." Today as in Joshua's day there are plenty of false religions from which to recoil. Joshua continues "And if it seems evil unto you serve the Lord," Strange and occult religions are being imported into Christian lands from the East and from dark- est Africa. Subtle counterfeits of Christianity are prevalent and. popu- lar, using the very name of Christ and quoting freely from the Bible, but always denying the shed blood. and death of Christ as the only way of salvation for lost sinners. May we turn from these as from spiritual sui- cide and eternal death, Let 'tis say, in Joshua's ringing words, "But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord." Then the problem of divorce! This again is no new problem; it was an old one in the days of our Lord; it was old in the days of Moses. Christ dealt with this problem frankly, un- equivocally, uncompromisingly. Moses had formulated a law of di- vorce for the Israelites. We find it in Deuteronomy. The Lord said of this: "For the hardness of your heart he wrote .you this precept. But from the begnning of .the creation God made them male and female, For this cause shall a man leave his fa- ther and mother, and cleave to his wife,. and the twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder." As His disciples asked Him forth - acres of alfalfa sod, ten acres on his er about this, the Lord said that if a own farm and ten acres on the John Coulter farm, averaging an acre a day,. which is considered fast work with one team, These two farms are among the best in the township for alfalfa growing.—Milverton Sun.

Potter reports having gathered a: dish of this lus- cious fruit on .Monday. -- Clinton News -Record. malt puts away, his wife and marries another, he commits adultery; and if a woman puts away her husband and marries another, she commits adul- tery. Elsewhere in the Gospels the Lord intimates that if .adulteryhas already been committed by either the husband or the wife, a divorce and remarriage by the innocent party does not constitute adultery. The New Testament standard is a high standard, but the problem of di- voree in the modern home would be ditninished a thousandfold if the Lord's divine and: authoritative com- tnands were obeyed unquestioningly. Then there is the parent -and -child -- ren problem. , Have parents any real eight to Mother—What were you and that young man chatting about so gaily? Daughter—Oh, nothing that you should hear at your age, Mother. THE REWARD OF INDUSTRY The editor of a Texas country newspaper recently moved into Dat - las and deposited $50,000 in one of the local banks. He had been pub- lishing his little country paper. for 30 years, and moved into the city with around $50,000to his credit. When asked the secret of his finan- cial success, he said: "I attribute my ability to retire with a $50,000 bank account after 30 years in the country newspaper field to close application to duty, also hewing to the mark and letting the chips fall where they may, the most rigorous rules of economy, never spending a cent foolishly, ever- lastingly keeping at my job with a, whole heart, and the death of an un- cle who left me $49,999.50."
