About one and a hait miles east oft Miil- brook, thc truck driver sounded his homn as a warning that he was passing a car going in the same di- rection. The car driver crowed his vehicle too close to the (cige of the pavement, with the r wlt that the car, upon striking the gra- vel shoulder of the road, went out of control, tumned over, injuring the aduit occupants, besides kili- ing a two year oid child paseenger. The occupants et the truck turned back and rendered assistance tili the police came. Yelverton Girl'& Basebail Club held a very succestul dance in the local L.O.L. Hall on July 20. Ruth Wilson's orchestra supplicd the music. The Club cleared $34.00. A squabble broke out during the eviening between some Janetville and Bcthany young men. Seems that Janetvilie had the Indian sign on Bethany ailsecason, trim- ming thcm cvery time the two teams piayed. Later on, during thc dance, the Bcthany boys, who were very clated over their suc- cess couldn't resust a littie bragg- ing. Resuit a fight! We noticcd -on JuIy 21 that dressed hogs on the Edmonton market wcre $35.00 per cwt. dress- cd'. In 1932 or '33, we soid dressed pork in Pontypool at $6.()o per cwt. One of our wcaithy customers had the carcass weighed on a set et broken scales. which showed a ditterence of twvelve peunds. In vain we argued that our scales were almost new, therefore apt to-be more reliable than the old, borrowed set just used. The old skinflint kept back the 72 cents. Since then he bas gone the way of ail flesh. If he took the 72 cents with him that he cheated us out ef, it has probably meltcd long before this, presuming of course, that he went whcre the writcr consigncd him. Wben our young Dutch triends, Mr. and Mrs. Bill Berendsen caîl- ed on us, they showed us a book- let turned out by a Dutch Forestry firm. It cent.ained an article by Bill. Although we *were unable to read the language it was printcd in, we did enjoy seeing the pict- ures of tamiliar spots in Port Hope, the Ganaraska watorshed, etc. We noticed too, that every ar- ticle in the publication was over the name et a well known profes- ser.

This atter ail is a democracy. Party leaders desîre te attain ef- fice. We have just passed tbrough an election based on magnificent promises. What tallows? If these pramises were ail kept ut least 50 % ef the national incarne would ho spent by the state. We have gone a long way in that direc- tien.
