Kàple Grove Women's Institute Are Rosis Io Hampton Ladies Over fanty ladies of Hampton Women's Institute were guests of Maple Grave W.I. on Sept. llth. President Mrs. I. Munday called the. gatbering ta order witb a musical marcb cancluding with Hfampton and Maple Grave ladies alternating when seated. The rail caîl "Introduce Tour Neighboun" veny effectively brake Rny ice wbicb might have existed. DiQga bief business session Munday announced that ~e Grave had won second pR"i eon the "Kitcben Accessonies" speclal W.I. class at Orona Fair. A motion was carnied ta assist the W.M.S. in quilting for the Red Cross. The motta for the evening "It's always fair weather wben good fellows get tagether" was taken by Mrs. L. C. Snowden. Observ- ing the beaming faces and listen- ing ta the bearty hum of voices during the passing of the collec- tion plate Mrs. Snowden felt that wards were superfluaus excepting the reminder that the skies of the world are not fair and women cannot forget world responsibili- ties. Mrs. Fred Haney, wha took the chair for the pnogram, provîded by the visitons, spoke of the in- terest of their group in the cam- , vely yaung branch at Maple "W and of ber faitb in the g ness of the work of the W. to society in genenal. Women have witbin tbem the great need ta give. After the demands of the home have been cared for the outlet for service ta society is greatiy tbru organizations and tbe W.I. calîs for the noblest and best that women have ta give. Mrs. Jas. Smale sang the timely sla for Sept "Hi, Ha, Came ta the Fair" and an encore the lovely sala "Tbink On Me." Mrs. Howard Gaud provided fun, as well as some sage and helpful advice, in the reading, "The Efficient but Tactless Hast- ess" followed by the encore "Tbe Hint" wbicb provided a bearty Iaugb. Mrs. Ken Caverly and Mrs. W. Horn in identical cos- tumes and headgear sang "Tani Waves" ta the tune o! "Jingle Bells." The question: "whicb twln bas the tani?" went unan- swened. Miss Norah Horn was accompanist for the soloists. Mrs. Charles Daw spoke on "Haspitality" askirng the question: "Wbat is Hospitality?" Gaing back ta the word hospice and its derivatians we find the words, a sftug beant, a baven, generaus and liberal. The legend of west- tern bospitality is just that giving of anes self and wbat ever may be at hand in the generous warm way. This is true haspitility, wben neighbours are fan apart there is the need of just this and much may be learned fromn this western way in aur more closely settled areas where making an impression or' entertaining may be typical. Our conversation should mean mare than aur mat- enial possessions and we need' God in the centre of ail farms of aur social life, in the casual meet- ing in church and cammunity groups and in the sbaring of our firesides. Mrs. Daw was given most genuine applause fram the aven ninety in attendance. On beb aif o! tbe Hampton W.I. Mrs. Lorenzo Truli expressed appreciatian and pleasure at being guests of Maple Grave W. I. Mrs. Munday re- sponded by asking for anather applause from Maple Grave for the pleasure and profit derived fram the splendid program. Convener for Sept., Mrs. How- ard Bradley and ber graup served refnesbments. OBITUARY MRS.

They ail agree on one point, viz. the Premier might just as well have made his wishes known before the stnike got under way and thereby saved the workers 18 million dol- lars. Some of tbem declare that they won't vote for the blankety blank Grits after that apparent let down. To whicb we give the big razzbenry. We've read about guys with a peeve not voting for this party or that, in cookery books. They voted themselves out of work, then got sore wben our Premier belped them ta shorten their own stnike, sa tbey could get back into their money making stride again. Ain't buman nature funny? Last week we heard of a 37- year-old chap in the States, who acted as resident surgeon and physician in severai haspitals, being sentenced to a year in prison. The catch was, that the laddîe buck pnactised medicine without having either a high scbool diploma or a medical de- gree. Yet, so far, he has deliver- ed 475 babies, neyer made a single medical error, or lost a patient. For being so efficient the law gives the poor blighter a year in stir. It seems to us that a man prac- tiling medicine and surgery as cleverly as that, witbout baving gane thraugh aIl the mumbo jumbo of University training, sbould be hailed as a smart cook- ie. We wouldn't mind betting 10 cents to a bole in a doughnut that, there's very few of the boys who attended a rab rab school for five years at the old man's expense could equal this clever fellow's record. This kind of proves a suspicion that we have bad for a long time, that the yaung medicos acquire most of thein knowledge through the time banoured method of bluff, trial and error, at the same time changing their unsuspecting dupes nice fat fees wbich wîll enable them (the medicos) to dress in the latest fashion, drive expensive cars, go golfing, and live in swanky houses. The 'veny thought of it makes us poor lab- oners groan. By golly! I'd rather risk my precious carcass to the skill of the bloke they've got in j ail, with his successful five years of experience, than to any green- bonn eager beaver, fresh out of medical scbool. Our biggest laugh came from the fact that, the prisoner is a Canadian. Usually, we think the Yankees are the smart ginks, who are apt. ta come Up into Canada and sting'us. It's kind of nice ta see the biter bit. We know the recent rains have been irksome ta some folks. But we whose passionate intenest is in trees, are smiling broadly. Ramn keeps the forest green, pramotes growth, lessens fire hazard. On the other hand, thie "duff" under the trees absorbs the ramn as it falîs, saaking it up like blotting paper, then releases it slawly, so that it flot anly helps feed the protecting trees, but allows the surplus to help build up the very necessaryý underground water supplies.

A few nights ago this chap had discussed the probab- ility of sending bis mother and father ta California. Soon aften the discussion, be went ta bed. Apparently, he bappens ta be one of those people wbose subcon- scious minds work on the last consciaus thoughts before going ta sleep. Later, that nigbt, bis brother awakened and naticed the bunk opposite was empty. Becoming alarmed, he went in search of bis sleep-walking bro- ther and found hlm about a haif mile down the noad, in bis pyjamas, standing near an elm tnee, trying ta thumb a ride ta Califonnia. He was stili asleep! Ernie was telling us about a sborttempened man out West. Seems this fellow was cranking bis car one bot day. The more the car nefused ta stant, the angnier grew the awner. When he was almost ready ta bust a gusset,@ he notîced bis collie dog standing near by, panting, with tangue lalling out and laoking up at bim. The man gave the dog a bard kick and yelled: "that'li teach you ta stand laughing at me." The dag kicker must bave been about as ragged nerved as the lawyer wba, baving spent a long, trying day in a divorce court, sank wearily down in bis favour- ite anm chair at home. Just tben tbe family cat got up, stretched and started ta walk silently across tbe lovely soft living-room nug. The lawyer glared at ber and snanled: "that's right, naw you go stamping around." It's nice ta leann that aur Editor is out af hospital and back home again. Guess he's worth a dazen dead ones yet.
