*-.^rri -, .Wednesday, September '), 1936 THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE -i yâ€" -- THE fLESKEIITON ADVANCE Pabliahed on Collinerwood Street, Pletherton, Wednesday of each week. Circulation over 1000, Price in Canada $2.00 per year, when paid in advance $lgO; in U. &. A. 92, per year, when paid in advance $2.00. W. H. THURSTON, Editor. F. J. THURSTON, Asaociate Editor A MONEY-MAKER self recognize in the street on Saturday night. busy Here is a pointer for the village fathers of Flesherton to consider. The town of Wolseley, Sask., says the Oxbow Herald, has a very cffectire method of dealing with speeders, who make a race track of the highway run- ning through the town. A speed 'cop' was borrowed from the government for a week, and in two 'days a total of eighty-five dollars was collected in fines. One of those brought before the magistrate was just doing 58 miles an hour through Wolseley's main street, while all of the others, with one i-xception, were doing any- thing from 40 to 50 when 'clocked' by the policeman. What about Oxbow's pacemakers, many of whom seem to be in such a hurry when going no- where in particular? We believe there is an old bylaw setting a speed limit in \S\v town twenty miles per hour. We do ndi think a single day passes when traffic laws of one kind or another arc not broken, yet so far as we can recall a penalty has never been handed out. which goes to prove that we are a lonir-suffering community without a chip on its shoulder â€" or .xomething. â-  h, By some astonishing quirk of fate The Advance man got his kands on one of the recently issued dollar bills of the newly-formed Bank of Canada. In critically examining this phenom- enon we noted the following astonish- ing peculiarities about it Search as we might we could not find a single word of English on the bill. There was nothing to show whether it was made in an English-speaking country or French Morocco, Timbucto or Jangier. It announces on its face that it is "Emission de 1935 â€" banque du Canada, poiera au porteur sur (lemande. Sou gouverneur, gover- neur." Our postage stamps are given the dual language; at least our paper money might include some small reminder that the language of this British colony is English. On behalf of the United Empire Loyalist element in our electorate we make this suggestion. : : Advance Recipes For The Ladies IN MEMORIAM WIOKENS â€" In loving memory of our dear mother, Lyda Wickens, who fell asleep September 13th, 1935. What is a home without a mother? What are all the joys we meet When her loving smile no longer Greets the coming of our feet? You were very true and patient Through the months you struggled on, And those dear hands now ai-e resting. Which made a home and now are gone. To those who have a mother, Cherish her with care, There will never be another To fill her vacant chair. â€" Ever remembered by her husband and family. We welcome reripes from the read- ers of The Advance to print in this column. After a certain period we intend to make a book of the recipes and one will be presented free to each person sending in a recipe. If your recipe does not appear the week after you sand it in be patient as it will appear in a future issue.

Stewart EDITORIAL NOTES The Toronto Star warns the public against taking money with them when attending an Eai'l Rowe Conservative rally, and cites the pocket pic-king at Owen Sound. Iti any event it was a braver effort than was the Hepbuin birthday party, which had to be call- ed off owing to an influx of bootleg- gers. Fie Mr. Star.

Nothing can ever take away The love a heart holds dear; Fond memories linger every day, Remembrance keeps her near.

Italy has put out a feeler to see if she would be welcomed back into the I/<>ague of Nations.

The very fact that he does persist in that denial on every platform is a very good reason te degenerate humanity why it should be made a factor. If a person sees smoke the general procedure is to look for its source, which in this case will be easily found. * • • An exchange points out very aptly that every business firm and pro- fessional man in the community should be represented in every is.iue of the local paper, if only by a small card. The local newspaper serves, amiong other functions, as a town directory, not only for thu community folk but for strangers. Old established firms, our exchange !>oints out, who thinW they can live on past prestige, are leaning on a doubtful support. The personnel of even a quiet rural com- munity changes constantly these times. How many faces do you your- |ber i:}th. l'J35.

The objection to an early start is that you meet all the people who started early to avoid the crowd. British passenger train has attain- ed a speed of M3 miles an hour, and people used to talk about those folks blundering through.

There is noise everywhere. Our streets are full of it, day and night^trucks, mo- tor horns, motorcycles, street cars, milkwagons at night. Our houses are full of it â€" vacuum cleaners, fur- nace blowers, and, if in apartments, elevators and the neighbors above. The modern fijeproof construction of large dwellings but amplifies sound transmission through walls and plumbing. And now, with the blatant radio screeching from every neighbors win- dow from morning until night, the last vestige of peace for the city dwellers has been shattered. It may be true that we can get used to anything, even hanging, but the effect on the human constitution dur- ing the process may be deplorable. Noise is definitely detrimental to health. Science has proven that a passing truck may so disturb a sleep- er, even though he be not roused, that the blood pressure rises twenty millimeters. Noise raises muscular tension and the brain pressure has been found to be increased fourfold. Hearing may be impaired, sleep lost, and efficiency lowered. What can be done about it? Many cities have set up anti-noise regul- ations, but the final solution rests with the individuals themselves. We are not likely to give up our paved streets, our mechanized transporta- tion or our labor saving devices, therefore the solution lies in control- ling their use. Motor horns are needlessly loud and could be used less; night trucking and through trucking can be regulated â€" if we demand it; lazy cubs can get out and ring the doorbell rather than disturb the neighbors until her lady- ship appears. All horse-drawn vehicles should be rubber-tired; rubber horseshoes have been advocated; night delivery of milk is not absolutely essential. Street cars should be gradually re- placed by buses. Street cars should not be permitted to race over track crossings at high speed, particularly at night. Advertising loud speakers should be eliminated. The radio has an infinite capacity for providing pleasure and education, but in mny homes it is automatically turned on when the blinds are raised and never turned off until bedtime. It does save one the trouble of think- ing â€" if it be listened to at all â€" but it makes the neighbors do a lot of vit- riolic thinking. If we all observed the Golden Rule and considered others, life would be made a lot quieter and happier. There is no more desirable business qualification than punctuality, and no other 30 indispensable to a man of affairs or to any one who would save his own time and that of others. Nap- oleon once invited his marshals to dine with him, but, as they did not arriT* at the moment appointed, he began to eat without them. They came in just as he was rising from the table. "Gentlemen," said h», "dinner is now over and we will immediately proceed to business. The drought is reported to have set corn jumping on the Chicago Ex- change. Funny, ours always bother us when it is going to rain. "It's very strange how some people manage to get along without any garden tools. Why our new neighbors haven't got a lawn-mower, step-lad- der, nor a hose." "How do you know they haven't?" "Because after they moved in I tried to borrow them." ♦♦♦II 1 1 1*1 1 1 I f f ♦ ♦« > >»♦♦♦♦ No Credit In future we will sell for cash only. .Ml notes and account.s not paid before Sept.

The little fellow looked at the old man's head thoughtfully and said: "There isn't much grazing there, now, is there grandpa?" High heels were invented by an old maid who had once been kissed on the forehead. â€" Brandon Sun.
