FACIALS AL For appointment phone 2694 To the Electors of Durkam At a meeting of the Durham Liberal Association held in Orono recently for the purpose of selecting a standard bearer in the Provincial contest, Mr. George Annis, of Darlington Township, and I, were proposed. Mr. Annis asked that he be allowed to withdraw, which left me alone in the field. I stated then that I accepted reluctantly the responsibility of becoming your candidate. Since thA time, Mr. Annis has reconsidered his decision and with the consent of my friends I have stepped aside in his favour, pledging him my whole hearted support. In this spirit, I trust that al Liberal minded electors in Durham riding will show their confidence ini Mr. Annis. 1May 8, 1945 (Signed> CECIL G. MERCER To the Electors of the County of Durham Mr. C.

THE COMMON ROAD By Sulas H. Pcrkins I want to travel the common road 1With the great crowd surging by, Where there's many a laugb and many a load, And many a smile and sigh. I want to be on the common way Witb its eiýdless tramping feet, In the summer brigbt and winter gray, In the noonday sun and heat. In the, cool of evening with sbadows nigh, At dawn, when the sun breaks clear, I want the great crowd passing by, To ken what they see and hear. I want to be one of the common herd, Not live in a shcîtered way, Want to be tbrilled, want to be stirred By the great crowd day by day; To glimpse the restful valleys deep, To toil up the rugged hili, To sce the brooks which shyly creep, To have the torrents tbrill. I want to laugb with the common man Wbcrever he chance to be, I want to aid him when I can Whenever there's need of me.
