,SEAFORTH, Friday, December 8th.
The United States Celebrate
The United States held high carni-
val on Tuesday night. •If newspaper
reports are correct, it was a real cele-
bration and nation wide in extent.
Public and private gatherings were
heal; bands played; speeches were
evade; whistles blew; sirens shrieked,
and even cannons were fired in-
sa-lutes.
It was not a national holiday, a
peace celebration. the return of pros-
perity, not a Christmas or New
Year's but rather a second Thanks-
giving celebration.
In fact it was a celebration in hon-
or of the return of John Barleycorn,
the martyr, who had just completed
a term of fourteen years banishment
from the country.
Of course John's family was not
banished, and some very near rela-
tievs of his, and he has many, have
been very prominently before the pub-
lic throughout the length and breadth
of the land all during the term of his
Ibanis:hrruent. But John himself is
home again and great was the cele-
bration.
We in Canada, are prone to think
that we are so like our American
neighbors, that there is really no difr-
ference between us, But before we
really come to believe it, there is al-
ways something like a wild cerebral
tion to John Barleycorn or the Cali-
fornia lynching, crops up across the
line, and then we change our minds
'again.
Pretty Hard to Please
Everyone
Politicians, both municipal and
parliamentary, will tell you that it
is pretty hard to please everyone, in
particular, to please everyone at the
sante time.
For several years in municipal. af-
fairs, we have heard nothing but the
cry of economy.. Too' high seladies;
too much education; too many local
improvements; too much taxation.
A good -..many live -wire, competent
business officials have gone down to
defeat through that cry, and a good
many incompetent ones ' have come
into office under its banner.
'Has the wheel taken another turn?
As a result of the early elections
held this week. we have heard from
'different municipalities, particularly
in towns and villages, that defeated
Reeves and Mayors, 'are attributing
their downfall,' not teethe fact that
they spent too much of the tax-
payers' money, but because they spett.
too little.
Not too little ono*public govern-
ment, but far too little cn public re-
lief. Public relief wanted a little
more butter to its bread; a little
more sugar to its tea; a little more
T-bone and `a lot less flank.
And when it was not forthcoming
publie relief and its friends banded
together and ousted the sitting mem-
bers for others of greater promise.
There are •,a good many centres
where public relief, with the help of
a few irresponsibles, or non -thinkers,
could do that very thing.
There is in every community a
body of ratepayers, of more or less
size, who are always ready to howl
their heads off at the amount of
their own 'tam's, but who, at the same
time, want td make good fellows of
themselves to their neighbors, their
friends or their relatives, at the gen-
eral expense of the public.
They forget that 'the officials who
keep the purse strings can not keep
dowXn the tax rate and at the same
time be a real Santa Claus when it
cones to d'ispens'ing relief, even when
than relief is deserving.
No one in this county, or in this
country, should be allowed to suffer
for the want of either food or cloth-
ing, but beyond that there is a limit.

of the Welshman is proveibial;, they
spears with a kind: of intonation in
an up and' down hill fashion, and
their words with queer proceesiofs
of consonants are positively 'bewild-
ering to the unedeeated tongue. That
afternoonts drive to Bettevy-s-coed,
through the Fairy Glen, I simply
cannot describe. Every now and
then we. would come upon white wa-
ter such as the Conway Falls; or the
Swallow Falls. The trees every-
where are so green and luxuriant, as
we found after walking three miles
through the Glen. The little 'villages
too, were so sweet, with tiny stone
cottages and many bright flowers.
It was a lovely sight to watch them
eppear out of the hills and clouds,
with big Mount Snowden to provide
the background. After tea in a small
place commanding a fine view of
Leeds Valleys, we found ourse],ives
driving through the slate and coal
mine area, 'Bleauan Festiniog,
over moorland country until we
came further south to 'Mochellyn-
wyth, not far from the Wye Valley:
We climbed until our ears rang; all
the while the moon was getting high-
er and brighter, simply flooding the
country side with tits splendour. Dis-
ester dogged our heels in this area,
in a most unusual fashion, Many
villages in this district hadn't exper-
ienced a rainfall since Easter; that
you will understand, constituted a
problem in higher mathematics for
"Lily," whose tastes run, not to re-
spectable pitcher fulls of water," but
whole wells full. We stayed at the
quaintest old hotel in Machellynwyth
and I wish you could have seen Roxy
and me manoeuvre our way into a
giant four-poster. Poor dear "Lily"
was shoe -horned into ' a veritable
niche in the wall, which required all
the dexterity of our Roxy to squeeze
her out in the morning.
Scuttling through the byways. we
passed through '.tile place, that
would provide a real holiday in them-
selves, until we came to Llandrindad
'Wells, a great rest -cure mineral
spriangs—rendezvous for fat English-
men. Soon after lunch in this note-
paper place, we travelled on to visit
an uncle and aunt of Ed's, not far
from Hereford. I must say the Cath-
edral at Hereford is a great disap-
pointment; ., I simply don't like
wrought iron choir screens! Our pic-
nic supper to -night took us`to Farmer
Brown's pasture. :field, overlooking
Gifford Castle and the Wye Valley.
I wish you could see us eating melon
"a la paw."
This epistle is being finished at
"The Anchor Hotel," Tintern. Tin-
tern Abbey' at last! aI will spare you
the quotation, but get out Words -
worth's poem, "Lines Written Above
Tintern Abbey," and .perhaps you will
be able to understand how I feel. 1
am going out now to see the place
by moonlight: could anything be
rnooxe' perfect? For the week -end,
think of us roaming through the Dev-
onshire lanes, and down to spend the
bank holiday on the Cornish coast.
What a thrill; what a thrill! As ev .

terday and roars like a lion. Soon

One of what we might be pleased
to term as one of the old landmarks
of the village, disappeared deri'ng_
the pant week. We here refer to
the long frame verandah on what
was originally known as the Dr.
Buchanan frame block of stores a-
bout the centre pmt of the village
on the no-th side of Miain Street,
and afterwards known as the Mur
(dock block. --This verandah, which
had sheltered the stores from rainy
sun and snow for almost the first
days of our 'village, began to show
;signs of decay and general weaken-
ing and it was thought much safer
to take it down than to have it
tumlble down, so Mr. Ed. Sheffer, who
has perhaps repaired and help to
pull down ,more structures than any
other man in the village, got busy
and took the verandah down. Our
thoughts turn to old and departed
business nein who were sheltered un-
der • it for very many years in the
persons of the late. Dr. MaoDairndd,
Alva Kelly, jeweller, and others of
more recent years. The present busi-
ness men now occupying the prem-
iises is Mr. R. Webber.

'Postal Notes. — C'hrustmari cards
without written message, only "Greet-
ings" or "Best Wishes," go .at one
cent, cont of ordinary post card with
message is two cents. Parcels for
the United States and Great Britain
require "custom 'declarations" when
over six ou.noes. Small parcels can
be sent at letter rates. Leaving .op-
en letters, except "printed matter"
or for "1?rinteos insertion in news
column" does not lessen the postage
rate. Custom declarations for par-
cels for overseas or United States
can be obtained at the local post of-
fice before posting parcels. During
the Christmas rush it is not well to
follow bags of ;mail matter from the
train to the post office as' a 'great
deal of time is wasted in waiting, as
it takes very much more time to: open
and sort assails for the rural r+onbes
and local office than at other time.
So those not wishing to have a con-
sidenable wait would do well not to
rush to the office. Parents, Sunday
school teachers and day school teach-
ers will do a fine service in impress-
ing upon the young, good behaviour
in all public places, as needless noise
is very confusing and annoying and
impedes 'd'uties. Mail matter in good
time before closing hours of mail and
insure better service and dispatch.
