Pinder, Flesherton K Pilgrimage To The Old World The Motherland and France As They Appear To-day FROM J. D. CLARKE I Mr. and Mrs. J. D. Clarke of OtU- ' wa are on a visit to Mr. and Mrs. F. H. W. Hickling, having returned from a visit of several months to Great Britain and the European continent. I Asked by The Advance as to condi- : tions in the old land Mr. Clarke said ' many changes had taken place since I his last visit fourteen years ago. The I disturbance in world-wide trade has resulted in considerable lack of em- ployment and only by the re-establish- â-  ment of normal conditions of the earth â€" particularly those of Europe â€" can betterment of the workeo-s be effected. ____ "Masters of industry with whom I conversed," Mr. Clarke continued, "are not downhearted. They see improvement, but fear it will be slow. The government dole to those out of work has been criticise<l as tending to promote idleness, especially among the young, but these grants could scarcely be avoided, as the hundreds of thousand.s of men returning from the front had to be provided for till they got a start in civil life, other- wise there might have been a revolu- tion. Dole Is Abused There is much evidence, however, that the dole has been abused. For example, while we were in Glasgow a young woman was arrested for steal- ing. She appropriated the wedding dress of her mistress, stole some choice clothing from her male em- ployer, and married an out-of-work dole receiver. At the trial it was re- vealed that immediately after the wedding the husband presented an ap- peal to the authorities for an increas- ed dole. "I am now a married man," he ^aid, "and I ask for a dole for my wife." He would have got it but for the fact that his wife was sent to jail for larceny of the wedding garments ! Very many more, however, cannot get work at their trades until times im- prove. The backbone of ironworking on the Clyde, for instance, was ship- building. But at the close of the war it was found that there was a great over-supply of ships, for ordinary commerce, and the thousands of men ordinarily employed on war ships are, under the scrapping agreement reach- ed by the Washington conference, likely to be without work at their trade for many a day. The Need Is Co-operation On the surface, however, Britain appars to afford a living to millions of men and women in excess of the o«««io««oooo0«oo«oooe«o«eo0oeoooo€»«»<»«®«@©fi»©^^®€»@®|» SIX HILL STORES W« buy together in order that OBTCuetomera in the six e<na- nsunitle* may materially ben- «fl« Individually. F. T. HILL & CO., Ltd. ' Markdale, Ontario THE HILL STORE A Store everyone instinct- ively aseodete* with high quality merchandi«e at the faireit potiibln prices. A Progressive Store Serving a Progressive Community I Exceptional Values In Seasonable Merchandise numbers which ecouonmta of pre-Vic- torian times pruphecied would bring the land to a condition of famine. Masters of industry assert that if the motherland is to keep the vanguard, her workers must co-operate with them in the endeavor to obtain and hold markets for their products. It is maintained that there is too much broken time in Britain, that while in Germany and France they willingly work six days a week and longer hours daily, the British worker de- mands nunief-ous half holidays in order to attend th< great sporting gatherings in addition to the Satur- day half holiday; and moreover in some trades have countenanced a ca' canny policy in order that a job may not too soon be completed! Employ- ers And it difficult, under conditions of this description, to compete with continental producers, while in the south of England last month I had brought to my attention the fact that because of the lack of co-operation between employers and employes, builders of new houses at the sea- .side resorts w«re importing large quantities of bricks and roofing tiles from Belgium and France, while British workmen went idle. Improvements In The Habits There have been improvements in the habits of the British populace since the war. Public houses do not open now till 10 a.m.; ihey are shut for part of the afternoon, and close for the night early in the evening. Then the tax on intoxicants is high and the price of beer and whisky greatly increased. The chief cause for improvement is attributed by fiome to a gi'owing indisposition of employers to give work to the habit- ual drinker, who is found to be less efficient and reliable that the abstem- ious worker. Ordidarily those who visit France invariably make for Paris, probably the most artificial, if the most art- istic capital, in Europe. On this occasion, having previously seen Paris, we endeavored to get an in- sight into rural life outside the war zone. We spent a short time in Normandy, a country of beautiful land.scape, quaint little homesteads and apple orchards. The apples ap- peared to be very small, why I was not able to ascertain. They would not, however, find a good market in Great Britain. The French turn them to account in producing cider, and we saw many car loads of the fruit on the railways en route to the mills. One could not but remark the ab- sence of men from the French farms. In no other respect is the devastation from the vlrar more manifest than in the blotting out of the French rural male population. Women were ev- erywhere seen performing the many duties ordinarily undertaken in this country by men. Paris, to which we made a flying visit, we found still the bustling, irre- pressible capital, with probably more foreigners in her pleasure resorts and great hotels than natives of the country. Parisians say they cater, not for Frenchmen, but for the fo- reign visitor, who is looked upon, probably with some truth in the cas9 of tourists from the new world, as persons more anxious to get rid of their money than to judiciously invest it. War Cemeteries Cared For A visit to a cemetery back of the war front, near the mouth of the Somme, convinced Mr. Clark that the authorities take good care of the last resting places of the heroic dead. The cemeteries are under the constant care of landscape gardeners. At the head of each grave is a stone with an inscription giving the name, x-egiment and date of death, and a suitable motto. The grass is kept like velvet and beautiful flowers are everywhere. Of course we visited Wembly and inspected the great exhibition there. All visitors who have seen the Canad- ian display express their pride, as we do, of our national exhibit, and return home confirmed in the belief that few â€" I doubt if any â€" countries are more attractive than our own.

HILL & Co., Limited, Markdale Lived In Artemesia Seventy-Six Years Mr. Calvin Boyce, the oldest con- tinuous resident of Artemesia town- ship, passed away at his home on the 4th line after a very brief illness of heart trouble. Mr. Boyce came to Artemesia when only five years of age and lived here continuously until ho died, at the good old age of 81 years. Hew as a strong, vigorous man all his life and never had to call in a physician until a couple of weeks before his death. He fed and water- ed his horse the morning of his death, but in the afternoon took a serious heart weakness and passed away. When a young man the deceased gentleman married MiUs Elizabeth •Spell, also of Artemesia, who survives him, and by whom there was a family of six children â€" Thomas, Priestville, Sask,; J. J. Boyce, Southampton; Mrs. Alex, Clark, Melville, Sask.; Mrs. \Vm. Kerton Honesdale, Pa.; and Mrs. David Marsh of Toronto. Mr. Boyce was a Presbyterian by faith. The funeral took place Tuesday afternoon, when interment was made in Flesherton cemetery. Mr. Boyce was one of the real pioneers, probably the last of the line in Artemesia, a township which he saw grow from a howling wilderness to a land of plenty and contentment â€"from the old ox team to the new- fangled automobile.. He was re- spected by all who knew him, and his memory will be kept green by the sorrowing sons and daughters, and by neighbors who knew his qualities and his industry in the days of pioneer- ing. To the aged widow and family we extend sympathy. NOTICEâ€" A carload of salt to ar- rive about October 23rd. Special prices cash off car. Leave your order with W, J. Stewart & Son, Flesherton, or A.
