Diamonds Lure to Misery
The rumor of untold wealth to be
found in the newly discovered dia-
mond fields at Oersonkrall, S. Africa
created a stampede of thousands of
prospectors, and now there exists in
the diamonds fields misery of a must
repellent form. Only about two per
cent. ever stake a real find, and in
most eases the fortunes they have
made run through their fingers. On-
ly twenty-five per cent. get so far as
to lead a comfortable life, and the
rest are living in poverty according
to a report issued by the South Afri-
can Government. Unfortunately
there are no doctors or hospitals near
and the sick have to get along as best
they can.

Tac heat has been so great in An--

Air Traffic Becoming Congested
There is so much commercial ail f
traffic in Great Britain that the Bri-

always give way to airships or bal-

loons right of way. Only safety

For the last nine months of 1920
there was a return tide of 45.312
Canadians who had gone to the Unit-

but who, upon returning to Canada 1
expressed their intention of remain-

e'en you not tarry awhile,
0 year! so near your reposing
1, who have loved you long,
Wopld have you linger in closing;
Linger that 1 might recall,
Here in the twilight alone,
With a tinge of regret for hyg-nt
things
The glorious days 1 have known.
Can you not stay your course,
O year! with my heart in your
keeping ?
1 would not sadden your way
With vain regret or with weeping;
1 would but offer you thanks
For the golden gifts that you
brour ht,
And for guiding my faltering steps
To the happiness that I sought.
For these, before you depart,
0 year! would i give you praise;
Telling them over again
Like a rosary of days :
For your gracious gift of the spring
For lilting winds, and for mirth,
For high, clear stars at night,
For the warm, sweet scent of earth.
For leisure. and earnest toil,
For the comfort in kindly looks,
For health, for unending joy in life,
For my bnundless kingdom of
books,
For friends i have found with you,
For firelight's kindly cheer,
For love, and laughter, and even
trays,
For these f thank you, year!
Year I have loved so well !
i would that you could stays;
Yet e'en as 1 voice the thought
The chimes begin to play:

Half tenderly mid, half gay.
While the gracious Keeper of all the

Leada you gently away.

I in effect in 'Huron County- the War-

ar-

year's Warden having been a Con-

of Hay; Reeve denies Beattie, of Sea -
forth; Reeve J. L. Me�Ewan, of Turn -

strong, of Hullett totanship, would
also have been in the field had he se-
cured re-election in his township, but
he went down to defeat on Monday at
the hands of Mr. E. A. Adams, after
having been reeve of the township
for nine years. Another familiar
figure at the county council board
for many years went down to defeat
on Monday, when Mr. E. F. Merner
was elected reeve of Hayfield in place
of Mr. A. E. Erwin. The county
council meets on Tuesday, Jan. 25th.
and no doubt those who are seeking
the Wardenship will be making the
most of the' intervening days in in-
terviewing their fellow members o j
the county council. at all events those
of their own political stripe.
