CHANGE Of OWNERSHIP VALEDICTION I beg to announce to the readers of The Advance that I have sold the Advance newspaper to Mr. A. G. Smith, who has been manager and editor o f the paper for the last four years. I appreciate the cheerful patronage which the citizens of Wingham and sur- rounding country have given us during the last four years, and trust you will con- tinue to loyally support Mr. Smith in this, new venture in business life. I have found Mr. Smith a splendid workman, one in whom I have had the greatest confidence and trust you will con- tinue to support The Wingham Advance in its new ownership. I have taken such a lively interest in my' farm during the last few years that I ..cannot seem to find any time for news - 'paper work and thought it wisdom to turn it over when such a promising young man ale my friend Smith was available. • 1 expect and look for a bright future in the new owner of The Advance and believe Mr. Smith will snake it grow to a more vigorous organ of public opinion. I know you Will rally round the new owner and give him your earnest support, and I hope to see Mr. Smith, one of my boys, continue - • to demonstrate the splendid manhood which he has shown during his apprentice- ship in Wingham. . Thanking all my friends who have had ' so many kind words to say for The Wing- ham. Advance, with the very best wishes for your continued prosperity I am, Yours sincerely, John Joynt Own a Gray Dort THE CAR OF QUALITY You will like it. See the models at our garage.

During these years we have always endeavored to give the readers of this paper all of the avail- able news and the patrons of our job work department satisfaction in the best of up• to -date printing. Whether we have in so ., e small degree at least, suceeded in our efforts, we leave to you to decide. While our brave Canadian lads were giving up their all for the protection of our fair Canada the price of paper, type, material of all kinds and wages, became so high that several weekly papers in Ont- ario were forced to cease publication, but with these odds to face we have struggled to keep The Advance going and at the same time give hundreds of dollars worth of free space to assist every patriotic society or organization in their efforts to back up the heros . who fought overseas. We rejoice with our readers in the great triumph which has been achieved and look forward to •i brighter, happier future in Canada when all our brave lads have re- turned from Overseas. Thanking our readers, correspondents, patrons and friends for favors received during the past four years and assuring you that it will be my greatest desire to serve you in the best possible manner, al- ways looking forward to boosting our town and vicinity, and trusting that I may be favored with a continuance of your appreciated patronage. I ani Yours sincerely, A. G. Smith A Good Move There will be general agreement with the purpose of a measure introduced into the Ontario Legislature, disqualifying de- faulters under the Military Service Act,. and persons convicted of seditious or reasonable offences during the war, for voting or holding public office in Ontario for a period of ten years. Some will argue that the measure does not go far enough and that men fit to fight who will not fight for Canada, and perhaps who have tried to prevent Canadians fighting for Canada, should never again vote in Can- adian affairs. The proposed disqualifica- tion, however, is all right as far as it goes, and the Dominion Government should take a step in the same direction. 125 Lbs.

One of the largest funerals seen here for some time, was that on Saturday last of the late Mrs. Thomas Hall, who passed away Wednesday evening in her home here. Though ailing some time, yet her friends weren't expecting her death so soo.'h. In fact she failed so rapidly at the last that she passed away before her son; a teacher in Brantford, and her sister, Mrs. Johnston, of Kippen, could reach her bed side. Among those present from a distance were Mrs, Hill of Keeton, Mrs. (Dr.) McClinton, of Midland, and Mr. and Mrs. Johnston and son, Cecil, of Kippen. Govt. May Reduce Jails. • War. McDonald, M. P.

This office is the natural rendezvous of farmers any- way, nyway, and as it is always open during bths- iness hours, with a lady in charge, we have no doubt it will prove popular as a gathering place for their families when they are in town BORN Cou L Tirw - In East Wawanosh, on Sun_ day; Apr. 27th, to Mr, and Mrs. Robt Coultes a son. How Money Grows The following incident is a good examp- le of how money grows:— "Postmaster rows:"Postmaster Thomson had an interest- ing experience a few days ago, when a farmer living near Jarrett, called with a savings -bank book, -which his father, who died three or four years ago, had left, and desired to draw the amount to his credit. Examination disclosed the fact that the year of the Franco-Prussian war, away back in 1870, the father had made a de- posit eposit of $50, which for the intervening 48 years had lain at Ottawa undisturbed, so far as the depositor was col -lamed, The book was sent to Ottawa and a computa- tion of the interest showed something over *287 to the credit of the depositor. This, after certain necessary formalities had been complied with, was paid over. The experience is a good illustration of how money makes money, even at the low rate of three per cent. interest.—Orillia Packet. What A Good Band Means To A Town LIFT OFF CORNS! .Apply few drops then lift sore, touchy corns off with fingers 1N MEMORIAM. linuaday, Maly ii '1 In loving memory of Pte. Win. Chap- man, who passed away at Kingston San. itorium, February 27th 1918, and was laid to rest in Rapid City, March 6th, 1018. Just one year has passed, Since we looked on thy dear face, And we laid thee down to rest, Low within,Earth's cold embrace. Bravely did'st thou do thy duty, Facing death with fearless thought, Until illness overtook thee. Still thy courage failed thee not, And with eager hopes did struggle, For to reach thy earthly home. But to Heaven thy Saviour called thee;. For to wear the Hero's crown. How we miss thee dearest Willie, More than tongue can e'er express, But With joy again we'll meet thee, In that land of peace and rest. By Mother, Brother and Sisteria. Doesn't hurt a bit! Drop a little Free zone on an aching corn, Instantly that corn stops hurting, then you lift it right out. Yes, magic! A tiny bottle of Freezone costs but a few cents at any drug store, but is suffici- ent to remove every hard corn, soft corn or corn between the toes, and the callus- es, without soreness or irration. - Freezone is the sensational discovery on a Cincinnati genius. It is wonderful. In loving memory of Pte. James Hart- well Chapman who made the supreme' sacrifice at Vimy Ridge, April 12th, 191T. Two years have passed since thou did'st fall, At thy post so brave and true, Answering to thy masters call, Bidding this sad world adieu, No time for to say Goc,dbye E'en a friend beside thee stood, In the twinkling of an eye, Thy dear spirit passed to God. Afar on Vimy Ridge in France, Where the flowers bloom and wave,. Lies the form of one we love, In a Hero soldier's grave. How we miss thee Hartwell dear, Miss thy kind and loving voice Always full of mirth and cheer, Oftimes made our heart rejoice. And though months and years go by,. Wounds so deep time cannot heal, Till we meet thee in the skies, And God's mysteries reveal. Mother, Brothers and Sisters J. Walton McKibbon, Druggist ,Wingham DRUGLESS PHYSICIAN •CSTLOPATHY DR. F.

OFFICE OVER CHRISTIE'S STORE In speaking about bands, and town bands in particular, we sometimes hear people carelessly say, " What good is a band in a town, anyway?" Well, first take inventory of the fellow who makes the re- mark. You may have reason to allow the silly question to go unanswered. But regarding the remark more seriously let us say that a good band is one of the most useful things a town or community can possess. It is one of the best adver- tisements a • town can have Emerson says somethingabout the world making a beaten path. Well, a good band will make all the roads leading to the town beaten paths, even though the town's other at- tractions be not enormous. Every mer- chant is benefitted by a good band, Malty people come to town to attend the de- lightful entertainments, and they combine shopping with this pleasure. The pro- moters of business atld municipal enter- prises always have the satisfaction of knowing that their civic demonstrations from time to time will be successful be- cause they have a first-class band to lead r wd. The tco the the way and attract churches are provided with orchestras and special musical numbers on anniversary and jubilee occasions. The social functions of a community are most satisfactory and decidedly more pleasant because music- ians equal to any occasions are just close by. A band composed of able players, is a tower of strength to any town or section of country. It cultivates the public ear to a high claw of music, and does it right at your door too. Every enterprising citizen will boost the bend of his town wherever hs goes. ---Ctrrradllsn Bandsman. examinations DRUGLESS PHYSICIAN CHIROPRACTIC (IODERICU•DETROiT EXCUR- SION Money Saved is Money Earned We've got a roster of men friends that we would not swop for anything in the wide, wide world, So, when we say that we can save you ten dollars on your Text suit, you can take it, that that is the straight goods.
