No other merchant has to work for the Public so many long hours each day as the Druggist. Late in the evening there may arise an urgent need for a certain kind of Medicine or Drug. Your physician is working hard to save the life of some loved one whose condition is critical-- he must haev the said medicine to make his work effective. Where do you «go for this "vital necessity"? Why, to the Drug Store. : kk kK : These calls, however, do not come frequently. The profit is therefore small, so we must sell other things you need, in order that we may be able to maintain the business to which you will probably turn some day when it is a question of Life or Death. wok RR TRY THE DRUG STORE FIRST!

We have word from our foreign correspondent that Friday's affair at the Uneedtukum Club was very well attended. Bill Cook put over a wonder- ful speech in spite of interruptions on the left flank. : Mayor Pitt made a hurried business trip to Fort Willam Monday, and was the principal speaker at the Port Atrhur Board of Trade banquet on Monday night. Remember the Whist Drive to be | evening, Mill Hall, Commencing with Whist at correspondent. To Hold Dance mora -- The meeting called Monday evening at eight o'clock in the Town Hall by the directors of the Base-ball Club was attended by a group of ladies and gen- tlemen, ardent sympathisers of the base-ball cause. And at this meet- { ing, it was decided to give a Whist Drive, Supper and Dance, on Friday October 20th in the Pulp 8.15, continuing till 10.18; Supper from 10.15 to 11 o'clock, and dancing from 11 o'clock til 2 o'clock. There will be a adies prize also one for the Gentle- men. ; : The supper will be provided by the ladies who are interested in the affairs of the Base Ball Team and their rep- atation as caterers is such that com- ment is superfluous. The Gammon orchestra, six strong, will provide the music. It will be the first appearance of this orchestra and a most interest- ing programme is promised. The forthcoming whist drive will prove one of the occasions when patrons will receive full value for their money. The fee for admission to the whist | drive, supper and dance, wiil be only 75¢, and anyone of the three will be worth the money. Every supporter of the baseball cause will be rallied to make the evening one of the most successful in the history of Dryden. On Friday night shortly after 9 p.m. three-score members of the Uneediu- lum Club and their guests, the new teachers and cthers, met in the Paper Mill Hall for th first dance of the new season, not having met for more than three months. An orchestra con- sisting of Miss Fern Tayior, Mra, W. | Collison and Mr Frank Fouls, engag- ed specially for the evening, played until supper time, when Mr Cook, in 5 few well chosen remarks, welcor "ed aims and objects of the Club. Mr Cook announced that the nest meet- ing an election of officers would take place. WALDHOF a Our Waldhof correspondent writes as about starting a subscription for the five sufferers of the Northern On- tario District. The idea is a good one and we will act on it and start tha list with a donation of one dollar * "our The list is now open, and we are prepared fo take and give an account of all subscriptions that the generous spirit of our Dryden citizens may prompt. How about starting a subscription for the people of Temiskaming. Would that not be two birds with one stone? A little good work and a little adver- tising. - Thanksgiving is now at hand and we had many things to kick about; but we had stil more things to be thank- ful for now. Being thankful is very easy and cheap. But let us put a little aside and think, and not only think, but give a little for the people just as given by the directors of the base-ball club Friday evening, Oct. 20th. Those desiring to play Whist should be there sharp at 8.15. i If you only have seventy-five cents! put it into a ticket-for the Big Whist / Drive, Supper and Dance Friday even- | ing at 8.15 sharp. y 4 : £ We hear that L. C. Carr is now on; the chemists' staff at the mill, but al-| though he was on the 3--11 shift last ; week, we were still able to "drug" him i out to a couple of parties. Ome would imagine that in his new role, he will experiment on the skin of that wolf (or was it a bear) that he slew last winter. "Carr Ha." a Does Prohibition Prolong Life? In Dryden in the early days of the temperance cause its workers were al- ways on th scent of evidence as to the physical advantages of total abstin- ence. Having heard of an old man who had attained the ripe age of ninety-six and had never touched a drop of liquor, a committee was rushed to his home to get his sworn statement t to that effect. They had just propped him up in bed, and were guiding the feeble, trembling old hand along the dotted line, when they were startled by a violent disturbance in the next room-- { seuffling of feet, £alling of heavy fur- niture, and breaking of crockery. «Good heavens, what's that?" gasp- 'ed a committeeman. "Qh," whispered th he sank back exhaus saint his ef nin "that's paw. He's § we are hard workers, who after a season of hard labour lost everything and some all their relatives. Mr G. Irmscher brought home his Birdsell clover huller. So we have to day two perfect working outfits. It is up to the rest of us to keep those two { outfits going and by the looks of: things there will be plenty of work for. both of them. We were just wondering what be- came of the clover seed grading and cleaning station our people were speak ing about this spring. Certainly it is time we were waking up, of course . only for absolutely clean, and proper i graded seed can we expect top price. 'What is the Co-Operative Club doing in this matter. Surely a golden opotr- tunity to be of real service to the committee. - My S. Aho moved to the place form= erly occupied by Mr E. Kelberg. Mr Aho is full of hope and we think he has the right stuff (elbow grease) to make a real settler. / Mr W. Grosbernett purchased a place in Minnitaki and is very busy plowing and breaking land. Good thing we did not lose him out of the district. dig i ye Ct A SE SS TOR SALE--On east side of North Road (Swanson sub-division) 10 min- ntes walk from station, 10 acres of garden land, all fenced.

M. Jackson per- mission to use the books formerly used as a public library, in ahy way he wished. These books, to the number of seven or eight hundred, are now being arr- ariged systematically and indexed, and cards and return slips are being printed. Mr M. F. Cook has very generously consented to allow the library to be placed in his office in the Royal Bank building, where he and Miss Lewis will act as librarians during their office hours. Thus, the library will be open six days a week, from nine until five. In the near future it is hoped that there will be several volunteers willing to act as librarians one eve- ening a week from seven to nine thirty. In this way, every one can have access to what is really a splen- did collection of books. A charge of five cents for the reader's card will he made, to cover current printing ex- gpenses. : | Next year, let our objective be 2a Carnegie Library, or at least a new public library building of our own. No town of this size, with the awakened community consciousness of this town, has any right to be without this very practical blending of the utilitarian and the aesthetic. g A town which has a book-reading populace must be a much better place in which to live than one devoid of And remember; while enjoying the fruits of the master- minds unfolded for your consideration, upon the shelves of your library, that we need a new building, and we are going to get it. IT CAN BE DONE! IGNACE Mrs T. MelGowan paid Dryden a brief visit last Saturday. 'Toots' Mackey ~lso was in the 'Pulp and Paper' town over the week-end.' Mrs J. Etherington journeyed to Fort William Monday, returning on No. One. 4 AN We recently discovered that the lat- est method of effectively luring :1ice to their doom, is the use of fly paper. This device was used to advantage just a few days ago in a local home. Surely this is the age of progress! The same person reports spearing two of the same species in one trap at the same time. This trap was pur- chased locally, so the moral is 'Patron- ize Home Industry'. For a really hungry person, desiring to get a tasty meal of 'Baked Trout' we strongly recommend the V.M.C.A. The only drawback is that the ration of said Trout is so limited, thay you'll probably: have to spend half your cheque satisfying your appetite. There have been no murders eom- mitted; no very violent assults; local gossip is at avery low ebb; and trains number one and two are arriving pretty well to schedule, so alt@ecther we've spent a quiet week. The Ignace Football Club wound up its season's activities with a well-at- tended Dance in the Community Hall on October the sixth. ; Commencing at 8.50 p.m. the event gathered momentum as the cvening progressed, the climax being reached via the 'Ladies Tag Two Step' route. . This proved to be the affair of the night, without doubt being the great- ost dance number the writer has been Passing through 'low' and 'neutral' stages, 'high' was yveached hitting an all cylinders. Feeling ran to 110 in the shade, excitement was intense. Yoong and old whirled in ec3bazy 19 the inspiring strains of the Orchestra. Ladies tagged und retagped with a vim and = vigor that bespoke keen pleasure. Qld genrs sweat profusely and cheerfully su vheir worthy efforts to keep up with the parade. Giddy youths swung equally giddy flappers from. the polished hardwood with the triuthphant exhaltation of genuine en- joyment. Mean hoofs were wickedly wioldedd by the most inexperience dancers with a confidence that sug- gested something accomplished. En- core followed encore. Nary a brow that did not perspire. Volumes of dust rose and fell with choking consistency--but none heeded, se oll were hapoy. Ye Gods: ~what. a Not even tha wall-flower. cor said the nudiss wore too shy Accidental Death A terrible tragedy occured in the Dryden yards, when Arthur Robinson was run over and killed sometime during Saturday night or early Sunday morning. There is no evidence to show how the unfortunate youth incurred the accident which terminated his life. He had been working at Mr Dan Hut- chison's camp near Ignace and was in Ignace during the early part of BSat- urday evening and told some parties he was quitting the camp and going home. The funeral was held from Union Church Tuesday afternoon at 4 o'clock and was attended by a large number of friends of the family. Mi and Mrs Robinson, and the family have the sympathy of the entire community. Mutilated Moonshine TRE oe "What are'the wild waves saying." Is Harry Gammon going to start an orchestra this winter? Yes, "when the tide comes in". If only you knew how this orchestra of six pieces is improving at each practice, you would say, "I aint gonna be nobodyis fool for Pm just waiting for that orchestra to start up and then jump in and dance." Talk about "I've got my habits on" you certainly will get them on, and you wont want to go home at "thre o'clock in the morning" to "tuck me to sleep". Although you will get the "Wabash Blues", you will still say "Aint we got fun" and will be "Wi CARD OF THANKS Mr Robert Robinson and family wish to thank all those who extended their sympathy during their recent bereavement. pering" and "Listening" for the mex? number and then "Stealing" arournc with. !
