THURSTON, EdiUr [.soc. Editor AIRSHIP CRASHES There is no doubt about it, Gennan.v appears to bo the only nation which ha.s ac<|uire(l the knack of building airships that ran stay off the ground with any dcjfri't' of .safety. Eithci the othei- nations cannot build them or the crew.s are nut properly qualified to oiK'rate them. Britain has had one bad mishap but Uncle Sam seems at an even worse disadvantage in the handlin;; of li(,'hter-than-air craft. First the Shenandoah, then the Akron and now the Macon has pone down, each with lo.ss of good men's lives. Almost simultaneously with the Macon disaster comes word from Berlin, Geimany, that Dr. fk-kner will build the greatest airship nf them al" â€" a new Zeppelin. And he will too While in Great Britain and the Un- ited Stales opinion as to the worth ol airships has boon varied, in Geiinany it is hard to find an opponent to the Zeppelin plans. In the United States the craving to build the biggest ol everything: has had a great deal to do â- with the failure of the airship venture. In Britain the air ministry is more content with le.sser and more stable -ships. While it may be argued that disasters such as the RlOl, Shenan- doah, .\kron and Macon must occur in â- ordei- that man may profit by mis- takes, it is quite likely that the Macon wreck will gain many recruits for the forces opiiosed to the airship venture. The Proton Station hockey team in the Semi-Pro League won their first fii'Ul games against Flesherton on j the lalter's ice last Thursday night by a score of i»-'f. Mr. Baechler of Hundalk was the official referee. The second game in the final series took place on .Monday night and again re- sulted in Proton having the edge with the score 7-4. One moi-(. win twixt Proton Station and the eiip. Success boys. The boys from the Bible School are haivesting their annual supply of ice from the Saugeon Jiver. Misses Jackson and Irish, nurses, are both away on cases and are un- usually busy. Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Rutherford oi Shelburne spent Saturday night and Sunday with Mr. and .Mrs. Firman Irish and Mr. Ed. Rutherford. Mrs. Vause is ill and Nurse Milne of Flesherton is in attendance. We hope she may soon recover. Mr. James Hemphill was injured when at work in the barn on Monday. MAXWELL THEATRICAL TRIALS As far as the actual open court : essions are concerned the Hauptman a.se is finished. What a relief! For weeks and weeks the little town «f Flemington, iN.J., has resounded \i'ith examination and cross-examina- tion. Attorneys have bellowed. Fan- .-.tics have intruded themselves. Well ''ressed women have thronged the »ourt room to gaze upon the unedify- ing spectacle of a human being fight- ing for his life. Flemington has 1 een the centre of news interest. Not « ven Mussolini or Hitler could efface Ihe former German maclvin-gunner : nd his accusers from the front page. Iiozens of new telephone lines were ; Irung into the little town and ar : rmy of newspaper people were en- < imped there. Millions of words ir I -ws stories spwl from the court !.)om. High piiced feature writers ! 'ped out sobs and moans on theii ! triable- typewriters. Instead of • -ing quietly and efficiently carried < ;it, the whole thing was blazed into I. theatrical performance. Contrast this with the Meisner t :al at London, Ontario. In a few t'r.ys a kidnapper was tried and sent- » r.?ei]. The court moved with speed ; I I yet maintained its dignity. The I a.son is that in Canada and Britain '.^ininals are not treated as national' ires. Canada and the British Kni- I i are ashamed of their few evil ' 'rs. Their punishment is swift .â-  i sure, ''an we, in our wildest dreams, •igine a British court, such as the ' 1 Btiley in London, .staging such a fitriral performance as the Haupl- Thank goodness it is rjvei! The Women's Institute met at the home of Mrs. (Rev.) Bushell on Feb- luary 14th, with a good attendance. Plans were made for the coming bazaar on March 10th. Mis.

Many of these required thousands of workers many years to build. Special attention was drawn to the ornate carving and sculptural designs. A feature of the lectures were the fine views of the famous tomb at Kashmir, built to the memory of his consort by one of the ancient rulers of the oriental province A large turnout of members of the Society was augmented by a number of visitors.

NO «l\ NEEDED FOR THIS RABBIT. Some hunters tram;i through tht swamps or go over to the Bervie dis- trict to hunt jack rabbits, but Mr. Sol- Schwandt, of the South Line, Brant, only had to go down to his barn ths other day and capture one with his hands to enjoy a rabbit dinner. Mr. Schwandt's dog had chased up a rabbit, but it sneaked through a close- ly-woven fence near the barn and tht dog was unable to follow. While the collie was making a detour, the i-abbitf sneaked away and crawled through a cat-hole in the barn door and sat on its haunches in one of the cattle stalls. When the cow became aware of the presence of a foreign animal, it be came scared, broke loose from its chain, and scampered out of the stall At this point Mr. .Schwandt entered the barn, caught the rabbit by the ears, threw it into a small compart- ment, and put the cow back in its stall, it threatened to injure the othei animals with its horns. Mr. Rabbit was later despatched and graced the Schwandt table. â€" Hanover Post. It is strange that so many peo- pe now swear they saw Bruno Hauptmann at one place or another, when for months on end the police thenvselves did not know who they were looking for. xVN IMPORTANT ADVANTAGE One big advantage that news- I>aper advertising has over rad- io, billboards, movie, and other similar media, is that a news- paper advertisement is always ready to be read at the con- venience of the reader, and it may be referred to as often as desired. In the other forms one must be on a certain spot, or present at a cerftain spot, If he doesn't get the message then, he never gets it. If he fails to grasp all of the mean- ing, he cannot check back to refresh his memory^ or add to his information. New Season's coiorfui Prints ( ERTAINI.Y ITS AN INJUSTICE (Hanover Post) Meal'ord is threatening to sue Ore> Count.v because of an agreement whereby they apparently renounced rebates on road expenditure for all lime. If this is what the agreement says it is not a fair one and the county should never have sought to impose such a condition. It didn't do so in the case of other towns, except Flesher- ton, an<l those two agreements might well be amended. We are not famil iar with law, but always understood that nothing could be de<-ided for all time to come. That's a long time. However, we would argue the oaso from a common ser.se viewpoint. The pui-pose of the af. "••eement was that towns would renouieo the rebates due them from the coun**: for road expend- itures until such till" a? the rebate^ covered the sum >vpen(led by the county on pavemen'.« in town.i and villages.
