gimral regret in thia dutnet in that or the closing of norval ntation which has been in xiaunct almost as long as the cn r whm the old grand trunk with its wonderful btll smokestacks and its wee locomotives wms laid through the centre of ieel counjy norval station though a mile and mon from the vil agi pluyed a wonderful part in the dnvolopment of thi surrounding coun try for one thing in particular it was thi nucleus around which for many yiars centred the grain and flour business of the village six teams were on the road conveying grain to the norval mills and carry jog fldur back for shipment all over olnada the coming of the radial and its recent development and the running of a spur into the mill yard has changed those things and thi glory of norval station is sadly dim med thi farmers for many miles around will mm ttle old station here were shipped thousands of cans of milk and cream the yards ec hoed to the stamp of cattle summer and fall w the grinding wheels of heavy grain wagons saw huge loads of hay being shipped and the old station guarded many a load of merchandise intended for consump tion in the great farming territory around but norval station is no more on monday it was officially closed and from henceforth those wishing to board a train at this point must flag it trains will stop to allow passe n gen to descend but the old days of the cosy wafting room and genial get together of men and women waiting for trains of awaiting passengers are ended in 1882 george jackson took up his residence at the little station where for 26 years he attended faithfully to the business of the station and serv ed the gt1l with quiet but much-ap- ercciatcd loyalty he was succeded y his son herbert jackson and for 19 years the latter has carried on in the place of his father with the same characteristics equally marked forty years residence in on place creates ties of friendship and neighbour mess which are not snapped at a moments notice and it was only when the community realised that herb jackson would be gone from norval in three days time that they awoke to the fact that norval station without the jackson family would not be norval station to this generation and that with them gong it were bet ter to have the station closed credit masonic lodge georgetown with which mr jackson has been con nccted for many years was the first group to come to say good bye and god speed on monday evening a large party of the members of this or ganization came down accompanied by some of the acton brethren and spent the evening with music and speechmaking those who took part in this end of the affair were b catty arnold j b wallace w grant j t cameron george brown messrs lacey murray wilson fall is saun ders dobson mr wallace then pre sented mr jackson on behalf of the lodge with an onyx pencil and fountain pen and mr grant gave mrs jackson a magnificent bouquet of hothouse flowers supper and musical program followed on tuesday evening mr and mi jackson and mrs jackson sr we summoned to the home of mr john cameron when they were surprised by a gathering of 390 people from every section of the surrounding country and the village of norvsx ben peteh occupied the chair very happily and a splendid program of readings and music was given by mrs frank hustler mrs c mclaughlin misses h russell r anderson dorothy watson margaret mcdonald margaret mcheekin and messrs l f greenwood wilfred and roy leslie addresses of appreciation for the jackson family and of regret at their departure were made by reeve wll bur little

evening was spent onscrvator flag manners an ottawa policeman a few dayi ago gave some american tourists the option of removing the american rags they were carrying on their can or adding a union jack the interference of a polic should not be necessary to teach the visitors good flag manners host of the offenders would probably be prompt to see the impropriety of canadian visitors displaying union jacks on american soil unless in company with the amcncsn flag but the american tourists are welcome in this country many of them are making discoveries of what is to them a new and wonderful country most of those who decorate their cats with flags have no idea of offending or that tnere is any question of good tastcmvolved and possibly there is sound for the retort that canadians emselves are guilty of bad taste of even worse when they display amen can flags for the purpose of attract ng the trade of american jou rot it u to be hoped that some day the people of both countries will learn to restrict their flags to their proper gift to acloo charca the ladies aid of the united church at acton have preaarited a set of three- very fine polpit platform chairs to the church aset of silver

facing ahead to many canadian people thevpros- pect of an election in the early fall may seem like a nuisance but there is nothing to be gained by growling against what cannot be helped the wisest thing for the people of this country to do is to give serious thought to their duties as citlxens it has often been said that the peo ple of a country get the kind of gov eminent they deserve even if they do not get the kind they wish like many familiar sayings it is not per haps to be accepted as literally true though there is truth in h it is easier to define the responsibility of voters than it is to meet it with wisdom and confidence canadas recent troubles may be traced quite largely if not entirely to too much potlucs of the wrong kind too much class conscious ness too much fighting juggling and manoeuvenng for party advantage and to little regard for national con side rations the obvious duty of the electors is to ftec themselves as far as possible from the harmful influences to which too many of the politicians have yield ed unfortunately the narrow spirit which dominates too many of the peo ples representatives seems to domin ate too many of the people them serves for their own safety and for the welfare ot the country people must learn to cultivate a fa cr and a broader spirit a genei election js not to be regarded as i occasion provided for the convenience of contending factions it should be regarded ss an opportunity afforded for the expression of the popular win it is not time for passion or for har boring thoughts of revenge it 4s a time for honesty and courage the people should rid their minds of con fusing issues and endeavor to give first place to the things that ara of first importance an abuse of hospitality it is said that no trespajnrtg signs are becoming more numerous on ontario farms if so it means that decant motorists are being pun ished for the sins of hoodlums farmers used to be most good natur- ed and hospitable in their treatment of motoring parties who used their property for picnics the pleasure- seekers could let down the gates pick out a convenient spot beside a stream light a fire cook a roeal and roam about unmolested amid scenes of natural beauty the farm became free park for the city visitors some motorists appreciated the farmer goodness and acted like civilised human beings they burn ed or carried away all rubbish such remains after a picnic they e csareful to extinguish fires they destroyed no property others acted in exactly the opposite way they broke down young trees and used them for firewood pulled up wild flowers defaced the landscape with paper cans and bottles they acted like barbarians naturally the fanners resentment was aroused he began to ask what would happen to him if he camped on the garden or boulevard of a city man still more if ho pulled up flowers broke down trees and strewed a lawn with cans bottles and waste paper now come the no trespassing signs which are likely to become common unless de cent motorists assert themselves what they ought to do la to de clare in the most public way their roval of the conduct of the sheep who act in this dis graceful manner motor leagues ought to distribute warnings against these practices if they have not al ready done so farmers should take the numbers of the cars of offender and report them to the motor league or to the authority issuing the li cense and the license should be can celled if the offence is proved pro secutions for trespass should be in stituted against all persona who abuse the farmers hospitality london advertiser going to school rural school attendance continues to decline only three country schools n eight have an average attendance if more thsn twenty pupils it is an old story and the causes lught to be fairly well understood by thu time but if the attend snee at rural schools is relatively small the total enrollment of the province cording to the same report showed an increase last year over the previous year of over 6000 on the whole there does not seem to be any decline of generalftnter- est in the matter of education such criticism as is most frequently heard is in regard to the quality of the education imparted in this them is said to be room for improvement and so long as there is enlightened and progressive thinking there prob ably wql be a demand for
