DARLINGSIDE, June 14.--The rain which fell on Friday was welcome and surely was the right thing at the right time. Hay and other crops look much bet- ter since. The Costichs are now per- manently located at T. J. Darling's cottage for the season. The Wisers are located at their island home for the summer. An old saying is "A dry May and a dropping June will make the farmers sing a merry tune." We have had a dry May with prospects of a dropping June, so, the next will be the farmers' merry tune. Many farmers were getting quite discouraged over the crop prospects until the recent rains came, and to .those we hand out the following helpful quotation: The worry-cow would have lived till now, It she'd only held her breath; But she feared the hay wouldn't last all day, So she choked herself to death.

The first shoes that bore the name "Ames Holden" and the first made by "McCready", were good shoes. The first dealers, who sold "Ames Holden" or "McCready" Shoes, found them to be good shoes. . Through all the sixty years of their business life which has brought increased prestige to these famous firms. Many of the grandfathers and grandmothers of today took their first walks in "Ames Holden" or "McCready" Shoes, just as their grandchildren are doing today. The builders of railroads; the founders of cities; the directors of national life; the substantial men and women in every section of Canada; the defenders of the Empire; have worn and are wearing either an "Ames Holden" or a "McCready" shoe. And the reason is simple --they are most satisfactory in, every point, style, fit, comfort, and practical economy. In other words--Quality First, AmesHolden M cCready Limited Montreal.
