BARRY jlOtf Local Representative Heaven Enough For Him Last evening I was talking With a grocer old and gray, Who had told me of a dream he had, 'Twas just the other day. While standing in his office The vision came to view, For he saw an angel enter Dressed in garments white and new. Said the angel, 'Tan from Heaven, The Lord just sent me down To bring you up to glory And don your golden crown. You've been a friend to everyone, And worked hard night and day, You have supported many, And from few received your pay, And we want you up in glory Where you desire to be; So place your trusting hand in mine And come along with me." Then the angel and the grocer Started up to glory's gate, But when passing close to Hades, The angel murmered, "Wait ! I have a place to show you-- It's the hottest plase in Hell, Where the ones that never paid you Do in torment always dwell." And behold the grocer saw them, His old patrons by the score, And grabbing up a chair and fan, He wished for nothing more, But was bound to sit and watch them, As they sizzle, singe and burn, And his eyes would rest on debtors Whichever way they'd turn. Said the angel, "Come on, grocer, There's the pearly gates to see." But the grocer only murmered, "This is Heaven enough for me." Anon, in Canadian Grocer.

S. officials. Dundonald farmers are busy from daylight to dark ploughing before the freeze-up. Our near neighbour for the past three weeks has been up before three o'clock, and has the stock cared for, cows milked, and the milk separated, all the chores donex _ breakfast over, and in the field with yhe Canada Year Book, 1937 and plow at early dawn. The publication of the 1937 edil of the Canada Year Book, published by authorization of the Hon. W. D. Euler, Minister of Trade and Commerce, is announced by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics. The Canada Year Book is the official statistical annual of the country and contains a thoroughly up-to-date account of the natural resources of the Dominion and their development, the history of the try, its institutions, its demography, different branches of production, trade, transportation, finance, educat-tion. etc.--in brief, a comprehensive study within the limits of a sing! volume of the social and economic condition of the Dominion. The new edition has been thoroughly revised throughout and includes in all its chapters the latest information available up to the date of going to press. The 1937 Canada Year Book extends to over 1,100 pages, dealing with all phases of the national life and more especially with those susceptible of statistical measurement. A statistical summary of the progress of Canada is included in the introductory matter. This gives a picture in figures of the remarkable progress which the country has made since the first census of the Dominion was token in 1871, sixty-six years ago. The accession of King George VI to the Throne and the Coronation of the new King on May 12 are marked by the reproduction as frontispiece of an old official photograph of the ceremony in Westminster Abhey. by official portraits of King George and Queen Elizabeth, and an excript from His Majesty's address to his peoples, delivered after the Coronation on May 12, 1937. Persons requiring the Year Book may obtain it from the King's Printer, Ottawa, as long as the supply lasts, at the price of $1.50, which covers merely the cost of paper, printing and binding. By a special concession, a limited number of paper-bound copies have been set as;de for ministers of religion, bona fide students and school teachers, who may obtain copies at the nominal price of 50 cents each. "We Who Are About to Die ---Salute You !" That was the greetng the gladiators of old gave to the Roman Emperor before they pershed in the arena. But we are not gladiators and we are not going into battle. We hav» no hate for anyone. We are not sick of life. We do not wish to die. But we will, by the hundreds. We are the people who are going to die in fatal motor accidents dur-iny the years 1937 and 1938. Most of us have not even a premon. ition of the fate which awaits us. We do not realize that Death lurks around the corner. We have not seen his shadow nor heard his footsteps. But Death awaits. Waits around the bend in the next car faltering brakes, in the trail of some chance driver who loves to "jockey" in a line of traffic or swisa past another car on a curve or hill. In the street, on the open highway, what matter where? Death waits and does not announce his coming. We are marked down to die. The great god called Statistics has written down our names in his big book and by actuarial laws we are doomed. We do not know it. but Death is coming. Some of us are little children. Our deaths will be more horirble, more tragic, than others. But die we will. Parents, teachers and professional life-savers with all their earnest warnings will avail us not. We are marked down. We are careless now. We do not take thought. Have you never been a child? Do you know what it is to be a stranger to responsibility to depend on others for care, for shelter, for protection? Yes, protection. That is one of the things the child is taught to expect from his elders; something in a cruel and reckless age he does not receive. Our deaths will be more tragic because more cruel than all the others. You can see the headlines: "FIVE CHILDREN KILLED IN SAFETY ZONE," "TOTS RUN OVER ON WAY FROM SCHOOL." You will read these headlines many times over in the next year. BUT WELL YOU READ THEM? WE W|HO ARE ABOUT TO DIE--- SALUTE YOU!

Australia has its pasturage problem, for it is calculated that five rabbits-- and there are milions of them--eat as much pastuiinge as one sheep. Wire net fences of great length are used to restrain the ravages of these pests. One fence s 695 miles long and another is 350 miles. Steel posts have been found the cheapest in the long run not only because they resist bush fires but last longer underground. Canada supplied 5.330 cwts. of car-lots to the British market out of a total import of 5.957 cwts. from Empire countries in 1936. Foreign countries brought the total British import of carrots up to 403,443 cwts. U. S. Government experiments indicate that clothes moths are not disturbed by air scented with cedar.
