THE DRYDEN OBSERVER THE During this week we found 60 Nobby Men's Straw Hats, left for summer sell- ings. Of course you have noticed that men have not been wearing strow hats this summer. The explanation of course is, that the summer has been too wet and too cold. We could have packed these hats away, and hoped for a warm nice 1925 summer, but not so 3 Charley this is the summer of our dis- content, and these hats must sell now, if there is any selling left. Shall we take a discount off, by no means, the matter is too serious for that. We need the money, and we need it now, and straw hats packed away in the month of January and February, look like ice cream feels, outside at 40 below. Regular selling value, $2.00; 2.50; 3.00; 3.50; 5.00 and 5.50. Pick your fit and take a Hat for only $1.40. 1.49-Straw Hats-1.49 THIS SALE IS WITHDRAWN SAT. NIGHT AND THE HATS TAKEN FROM WINDOW Preserving Fruit That Smashes all Records We have to arrive sometime next week a car of Red Plums, Tomatoes, and Cucumbers, and nothing else. We got an offer we could not resist. We shall sell these out at 75c a basket, with ou - reserve except that orders booked will be looked after. This is the lowest price we can recall for many years. Please book your orders in the Grocery Department, to enable us to handle car promptly. Do not allow your mind to be confused because of the cheapness of this fruit. Fruit comes under ice better than by express, the baskets are the largest size and it is just an effort to put good fruit as cheapily as possible into Dryden.

Johnstone, Auctioneer : WARPED CO-OPERATION AND DIS-HARMONY (From the Kenora Examiner) "Co-operation and harmony" is a cry emanating from the tents of the Tories. The ordinarily accepted appli- cation of these words is friendly co- operation of groups of diverse senti- ment for the accomplishment of particular aims common to all. How does this work out in practice in this district since the Ferguson govern- ment attained power in Ontario? No one could be found to enter the last election contest against Peter Heenan. Therefore he became our representative in the Ontario legisla- ture by the consent of all. Such being the case as Mr Heenan was sufficiently able to accomplish so much for the district as to lead the Port Arthur News-Chronicle a few short years ago to exclaim, "If we had a member to fight for us as Peter Heenan has for Kenora district we would also get something done here," it surely was a common sense view that the party for another legislative term while he : 000---- Jatch our epairing I have opened a : SHOE REPAIR BUSINESS No. 4, Puke St. dow All Orders Receive | We have a sample of cach pair of PROMPT ATTENTION shoes in the window for you to Prices Strictly Moderate | examine them.

With due regard for the interests of his constituents Peter Heenan could not see it that way. He declined that kind of political suicide, but, to accomplish a great purpose for which he was pre- viously fighting strenuously against the strongest kind of organized oppo- sition, he offered to surrender his political life for the accomplishment of that purpose. It was then that Tory : Grit and all other organizations co- operated and harmonized for a com- | It was then that the true meaning of these terms had vogue, but now they ] mean self-effacement and betrayal of | trust by the member, and misguided : hostility to him by local supporters of : the political party in power.
