County Roads Dried Up and Dragged.
Excerpt for a few rough • spots, and
they are .very few, Huron county
roads are now in good shape—in as
geed ch'ape as they will be at any
time this year, and probably better
than in midsummer, County Engineer
Roy Patterson told the Star yester-
day. The drags - (have been over. el-
rrl:st the entire system, he said.
Gravel replacement will be heavier
this year than for a.good many years
and much more surfacing will be re-
quired. During the winter there were
three or four "break-ups" and much
gravel was pounded down into the
rroad.••. Fpr this reason maintenance
trills of the county are this year ex-
pected• to be heavy. The road coni..
m scion met last. Friday and adjourn-
ed until May 10th, when the summer's
program will, be laid out for presen-
tation to the county council in June.
Theme are about seventy men now
employed on county roads, of which
tnventy are permanent. Some tarvia
roads' are being repaired in -unor-
ganized or police villages. A gang is
at work at Grand Bend. The material

repair and will in all likelihood re-
ceive attention.—Goderich Star.

La Cellophane.
You may get some satisfaction out
of knowing who is to .(blame for the.
hundreds of thousands of (man-hours
this nation has spent' taking things
out of cellophane wraepings. • It
wasn't an American, who invented it,
Hail •Colulmlb,ia! It was a Frenchman,
a Frenchman of the good old French
name of Brantd'enbe'rger Monsieur J.
E. Brandernlberger. He cane upon it
while experilmenting with rayon brace
in 1908. He had developed it to pret-
ty much itspresent state by, 1912.
He na'nlieenit, too=la cellophane. The
French rl'ovemnnvenit used it daring
the war, taking the entire production
to malae eye -pieces. for gas masks.
In 1923 the du Pont interests bought
the American rights. They made it
waterproof and new everything wears
it. It is made of wood pulp, as you
may •'know, and it keeips everything
out, from germs up, and is really
lap y valuable, if annoying.
It has all sorts of uses. besides the
familiar' ones. They• are making
hats out of it, artificial . grass and
water scenes for the stage, raincoats
for emergency use, costumes for bur-
lesque -show choruses, 'and.coverings
to ,protect table toles from glees
marks. . Kosher cellophane .. is pelade
to wrap up kosher (products.. You
can make your own flypaper by
smearing' it with glue and laying it
over something flies like to at. It's
very effective. The flies don't see it
until they are stuck on it. In Oregon
a fishing guide discovered that; a lit-
tle piece torn off a cigarette package
and stuck on a hook fools trout and
sralnvon. It looks like nothing at all
to flies, but it looks like flies tc '
(ton. Nature is very wonderful. A
man ori a lonely road in Arkansas
learned late one night that cellophane
rolled tightly, would piece out a wire
from( the coil to the distributer. It
got him home. Somewhere — these
discoveries are made all over the
world—a man found that Jif you wrap
a cigarette tightly in cellophane you
can tie it in, a knot, and that long -
felt need was 'taken care of. Many
triclethings•.•are done with it. A Can-
adian atuitolmrsbi.le company once wrap-
ped a whole automobile in it, put the
car h in a window, and attracted at-
tention.
Talk of the' Town
Jungle.
Anyone who wants actually to see
civilization creaking will ,do well to
visit, the corner of West and Spring
Streets and look at what is going on
there. The suibway fare is only five
cents, whereas a trip, to the Congo
ousts a t'housaardr dollars. There is a
whole 'village of shacks and huts there
made of packing boxes, barrel staves,
pieces an corrugated iron, and what-
ever else the junkman doesn't want,
and the people who live there do son
because the New York Central hasn't
got around to driving thein off. They
eat what they can get and wear what
they can find. Population: 150, heav-
ily Negro. ,Percentage of 'usefully
emipiloyed: 0. Total wealth: $0.00.
• Something like,two years ago, the
Menu York Central tore down several
blocks of houses, preparatory to mov-
ing its tracks off West Street. 'Inito
the chaos of debris came two enter-
prising men from Harlan and built
themselves a cabin out of a piece of
oilclothr a section of a broken bill-
board, half a gasoline drum and some
cellar dioors. They installed an aban-
doned stove, threw same (burlap ,bags
over an 'old bedspring and moved in.
They were the founders of Jungle -
town: As you approach the (place,
you see an area which looks like the
dun ru'bbis'h flats of Newark, but pres-
ently figures ahe discerned moving a-
bout and as you get to it the smoke
which might easily be a sign of
stnalder•ing garbage becomes the
symibol of home. Stovepipe's, roofs,
houses come into focus. Faces peer
out, black, poor -white, mongrel. Ex-
amination shows many of the houses
to !be quite snug, large enough to

The Unpeaceful Pacific
America has told Japan and China
to 'mind what .they are about. She
has told them both though she thinks
Japan needs to heed this advice more
than China. She has told us in Great
Britain, and' six other countries be-
sides, that she has just had a word
with Japan and China; and she has
let us know that she would not be
sorry if we and the six others had a
word with them too. • We and the
others are thinking ahout. it.
'Why this has happened is a very
long story, too long to be told right
from the (beginning. So I shall start
in the middle and go on as far as I
can. Then the end—when it comes—
will be easier to understand..
On the north of 'China there is a
region called 'Manchuria, where the
Chinese emnlperors once came from.
(Manchuria, which is three times as
big as Great Britain and Ireland, is
called a Chinese "dependenicy," that
is to say, it is not exactly Chinese
though China rules over it when she:
can.
Nearly 40 years ago Russia, wish-
ing to get a ?oohing on the shore of
the Yellow Sea, where the water '`its
warmer than it is on the shores of
,Siberia, and does not usually freeze
began to show liter fist to China, so
as) to make the Chinese Government
hand over some •places on the Mane
dhnrrian coast that Russia wanted. In
1898 'China handed than over; but in
1900, when the Chinese tried to turn
foreigners out of their country, the
Russians hit back by taking the whole
on 'Mancthuria.
Between anancihuria (which was in
Russian hands) and Japan lay Korea.
Fearing that Russia might bag Kor-
ea also, and thus cone much too close
for connlfort, the Japanese asked' Rus-
s% to clear out of (Manchuria.. They
found her hard of hearing. So Jarp>'an
tried to Make. her hear. In 1902
the Japanese made friends with Eng-
land, who was then not at all friend-
ly to Russia or'^. to France, who was
Russet s friend. With England be-
hind them the Japanese told Russia,
in 1904, that unless she cleared out
of IManclhurie she would have to fight
Japan.

Went to Market
Pigs are by no means ,the only ones
that go to market . . .. ' During ev-
ery day -of every year some sixty per
cent. of the people of Seaforth go to
market some place. The point is
. do they shop in Seaforth, or
do they go, to Stratford, or some
other nearby centre? . . . If .they
do wander afield, whose fault is it?
Of course, the merchants will
blame the shoppers . . . say that
they owe it to the town to buy here.
But the fault is not all with the shop-
per. Buyers buy; where they are in-
vited to buy. To invite means to ad-
vise
. . . How many merchants '
in Seaforth are consistent advertis-
ers,? One may count them on the
fingers of a hand with the result that
a few merchants do the inviting for
all the other storekeepers on Main
Street. '
Of course some merchant will say
"You're crazy; why, I had an ad in
last Christmas, another 12th of July
laslt year. Sure, I advertise." There
is an old saying, "One explosion of
gasoline never sent a car running
along the street," and so it is with
advertising. The most successful
merchant in any town is the consist-
ent advertiser. •

Established, in 1860 at Seaforth, Ontario.
war' began. The Japanese conquer-
ed all the places 'Russia had taken in
Manchuria, beat her soundly, and in
1905 forced her to leave Manchuria.
Japan 'gat the right to build a trail -
way throughSouth Manchuria and
to make herself at home on" as much
land as she might want to guard
the railway. The right to rule over
the rest of Manchuria was given back
to China. But in 1910 Japan bagged
Korea.
In .Sbu(th ,Manebua-ia Japan built
her railway, tools the land round it,
and spent a lot of money there. The
Chinese did little or nothing except
that, later on, 'millions of them came
eel from China into 'Man'churia, grew
grain, traded, and helped to make
the region rich. The people from. Ja-
pan did not like to settle there. They
thought the climate too hot and too
cold forsthern.
So things went on until the Great
War broke -out in. 1914. Japan then
sided with England, took from the
Germans some places oxl. the Yellow
Sea that Germany had made China
give her in 1898, and helped the
British navy. When Japan took these
places from. the Geemens she said
she would give them back ram China,
tihough she was not very eager to do
so. 1n fact she began to bully China.
In 1915 she asked the Chinese• to
make •CLQ written ,promises to her
which if kept, would have let Japan
do whatever she liked in China. The
Chinese made some of the promises,
but not the others.
Ai> the end of the Great War in
1918 there was some troiitlelt get-
ting Japan and America to agree
about 'things in 'China and Manchuria.
Australia took sides with America;
and Canada and New Zealand thought
that Australia was not quite wrong.
Still England was the chum of J'a-
;pan and hacl agreed in 1911 to go on
(being her chump, though not if Ja-
pan should quarrel with America.
Ajrherica and Japan grew less and
less friendly. War was talked of.
The American Government asked( all
the other countries that cared about
thi sgs in the Pacific Ocean to hold a
meeting ;at Washington to see what
could be done. This was in 1921. Be-
fore England went to the meeting
she found out that, if there should
he war between America and Japan,
Canada would side witch. America,
and that Au'strralia and New Zealand'
might db the same. no, at Washing-
ton, the old chi nrminess 'between 'Eng-
land and J'apaif was eeranged into a
pronids,e that Engi'a&nil, America,
I+"stance and Japan would all be chums
and talk over together anything im-
„
portant that (might happen in the
Pacific. This was called a "Four -
Power Agreement."
America then went 'a step further.
Nine countries, not only four, felt
they had something:. to say about
things in the 'Pacific. They were
America, England, France, iitaly,
Belgium, Holland, Portugal, Japan
and China. So, early in 1922, these
nine were got to (promise not to do
any harm to China, to keep the door
open for trade with her, and to talk
things over together if anything awk-
ward should happen. This• was call-
ed the "Nine -Power Treaty."
For a year or two things went be`-
ter—except in 'China, who seemed
likely to go to pieces. Instead 'bon
pulling together, a lit of Chinese
generals (began to fight each other.
Japan 'began to stretch her limbs in
Manchuria. Niobocly really knew
which was the real Government of
the two or three that had set them-
selves up in .China. Nobody quite
knows e'(en to -day.
ese right Out.
So, last month, America tolyl r' ra-
pan and. China to anind (what they
were about. America sand that she.
will take no notice whatever of any
new promises that the -Japanese may
((force the •Chinese to make, and• that
she wants the door kept wide open for
trade.
This is the end of the story, so far.
One thing to reniem'ber is that, whe-
ther or not England tries to "keep
out of it," Canada and perhaps Aus-
tralia and New Zealand May not be
able to keep out of it. 'If so, where

was in a mess: She was hard up.
All at once Japan said that 'Mian-
churia, which was thought to be fair-
ly quiet and well off, had got into
such a had way that, in order to put
things right, she must start out from
tate land round her railway and take
the whole (place into her hands. The
Chinese disliked this and (began to
fight. They were beaten and driven
out. Liittle Eby little Japan went on
until she had rgratbbed everything,
though she kept saying that she did
not really mean to grab anything at
all. -
At the time when this began, the
League of Nations was holding its
yearly meeting at Geneva. Its board!
of directors, .to which China and Jee

So China asked the (board to take up

SUFFERED FOR
FORTY YEARS
Then One Lucky Day She
Used Kellogg's ALL -BRAN
Here is great hews for sufferers
from constipation. Read Mrs. (en -
dig's voluntary letter:
"For about forty years I had
been praying for a lasting remedy
for constipation and its attending
evils. To make it short, I ate noth-
ing but ALL -BRAN and a little
broth. Since that time (about ten
years ago) I have not taken: any
medicine. Have been well and en-
tirely free from constipation." --
Mrs. I. H. Kendig (address upon.
request).
Constipation is caused by lack of
two things in the diet: "Bulk" to
exercise the intestines. Vitamin B
to tone the intestinal tract. Labora-
tory tests show ALL -BRAN furnishes
both. ATL-Beeer also furnishes iron
for the blood.
The "bulk" in ALL -BRAN is much
like that in lettuce. Within the
body, it' forms a soft mass, which
gentry cleats out the wastes.
Isn't it much pleasanter to enjoy
ALL -BRAN than to risk taking pills
and drugs—so often harmful?
Two tablespoonfuls daily will
overcome most types of constipa-
tion. If you have intestinal trouble '
not relieved this way, see your
° doctor.
