We try to collect as many ef these items as possible ourselves but of course, we are only human and can only make a note of those we see. If we are away for a weekend we must depend entirely on our readers for these news items. Your little item of visitors may seem unimportant to you. So much so that you hardly deem it worthwhile sending in for publication. Yet how many have noticed that the personal column is one of the first items a reader turns to upon receiving the paper. This is not done simply for curiosity's sake, but because your friends take a genuine pleasure in reading that friends or relatives have been to visit you. So send those little personal items along eaeh week no matter how unimportant they might seem. We enjoy receiving them and your friends enjoy reading them. About Time--Did you know? That Canada was the first country in the world to adopt the standard time system that now is in universal use. | HELP WANTED -- FEMALE WOMAN OR GIRL. Apply Dove': Lunch.
