The youngster's namé is Norman Sidey, four-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Don Sidley, and his bid for fame was made when he landed a four-pound black bass, 21 inches in length, . using for a tackle a crooked branch from a tree, a plece of string, and a worm on a hook. Norman was sitting on the dock behind his father's grocery store, hoping to catch a perch or two with his primitive equipment, when the big fellow grabbed the bait and made for the deep spots. The little chap screamed in his excitement, but held on tightly to the rod. His cousin, Murray Sidey, another four- year-old, came to his aid, and be- tween them they heaved the fish to the dock.

Squadron of Peterboro, held their monthly church parade Sunday. The squad- ron with Capt. E. Preston in com- mand was led by the Port Hope Citizens Band and accompanied by the newly formed troop of Fron- tiersmen from Port Hop? as well as about one hundred veterans also from Port Hope. After the service, which was taken by the padre of "E" Squadron, Rev, Geo. J. Bousfield, at St. Luke's Ang- lican Church, the parade moved off to the cenotaph in Confederation Park where Capt. Preston laid = wreath in memory of Corporal Thompson of "A" Squadron, who was killed in action in Europe. The squadron troped their colors draped in black in remembrance of their fallen comrade. The padre &nd rector of St. Luke's delivered a very impressive sermon on the subject, "Duty," during which he impressed his congregation by pointing out that the Legion of Frontiersmen could be held as a very good example to those desiring to do their duty to King and country. "The Frontiersmen," he said, not only were volunteers," but actually paid to belong to the organization as well &3 equipping themselves with uniforms, etc., so that they might be ready to be of service to their gov- ernment when the occasion arises. Therefore, said the padre, let us all strive to do our part to help win the war in whatever capacity we are most suited, and with God's help we will win the war.

SWISS PEOPLE ARE ON THE SPOT Rugged Island of Democ- racy Alone in Totalitarian Europe Berne, Switzerland, July 24. -- Switzerland, rugged little island of democracy in a totalitarian Europe, is on the spot--and knows it well. "Once. before, in Napoleon's time, the Swiss werec ut off, as they are now, from all but one side of a war. of Switzerland" then and the gov~ ernment of Switzerland fell for a few years in the hands of the' emperor's men. The Swiss government, bacleéd © strongly by the Swiss people, 18 © determined not to let that happen this time--if it can be prevented. With his country hard hit by the war, President Marcel Pilet= Golaz summed up Switzerland's im= mediate future in these words: "We must tighten our belts. We must take up again the healthy habit of toiling hard for small re- wards." After the Napoleonic era the hardy mountainfolk built national prosperity by toil and frugality. Switzerland's valleys are not nat-" There are few mine J urally fertile. eral resources. There is no sea coast. So the Swiss toiled with their hands and filled the world's markets with watches, tools, em=.% broidery -- whatever skill and pa=' tience could make better and cheap= er than their neighbors. On that international trade -- augmented by a healthy tourist business--was built Swiss prosper- itv. Mow the trade overseas is cut ~ff shomlv nrodv~ts manufactured for neighboring France are with- ~ out buyers and the tourist hotels ars empty of paying customers. Switzerland's tough little citizen = army of 500,000 has been demobil- ized and sent back to farms and factories, For a while there was profit from the war to counter-bal- some ance the loss of other trade.
