Loud Speakers The network of aerials is spreading over the town. Already poles are show- ing in backyards in every direction. A. M'Meekin, Kenora, was here last week, when he made a survey of the old Kennedy farm between the govern- ment road and the river, which has been converted to residential property, and will be known as the D. W. Scott Sub-division. Somewhat reminiscent of the great ey battleships is to be seen in the Te i armoured truck of the Contact Bay Mines, with our old friend Orval Jackson as navigating officer. The regular supply of cordwood not vet being available owing to the state of the bush roads,' farmers are having a busy spell hauling wood for fuel. Posters are out with the announce- ment of the annual Bazaar of St Luke's W. A,, to be held in the Parish Hall on Saturday, November 22. tea and supper will be served. Lt. W. H. Dingwall, late of the 1st C.M.R., attended the annual Officers' Re-union of the C.E.F. which was held in the Marlborough Hotel, Winnipeg, last week. Lt. P. H. B. Wood was un- able to be present on account of his injured eye. A male English pheasant of brilliant plumage flew over town the other day, lighting on the railway fence opposite the butcher shop. This is noteworthy as being the first time such a bird has been seen here. While the government is making an effort to stock the woods with them, a fine of $50 is levied for killing one. The warm sentiment that exists in Dryden towards the Salvation Army, found very tangible expression last week in the $200 collected in town for Army purposes, despite the hard times. Adjutant Kerr, whose personal charm is partly accountable for the success of the drive, desires very particularly to convey the thanks of the Army to the people of Dryden and district, and re- iterates the crying need that the dona-~ tion will help to meet. The "British American" (Chicago, IL) says in a recent issue-- W. W. French of Dryden, Ont, who was an interesting Chicago visitor, has teen making an extended trip through the middle western States, incidentally acquiring much information on the proposed Great Lakes waterway. He interviewed many Chicagoans on the subject and gleaned a vast deal of data here which he could have secured from no other source. He expressed appre- ciation of the courtesies shown him, sspecially by busy institutions like the Chicago Association of Commerce. NOTICE.

Gough's Confectionery Dryden, 'Ontario -§14th of November. | ProgressivesForm New raily, BEES Ex-Premier Drury as Leader TORONTO, Nov. 18--With but one voice Taised in protest the remnants dof the Ontario Farmer political party, 'abandoned all appeals to class con- sciousness, named itself the Ontario Progressive party, laid plans to secure 'support of all classes of the communi- ty and launched a crusade to eradi- cate, the "abuses of the present party government," by placing a newly creat- ed party under. the leadership of ex- Premier Drury in power. Drury's Address-- In accepting the Presidency of the new organization, Mr Drury, whose { government was defeated in last gen- eral election, declared that he rejoiced that this convention "has taken steps to remove the stigma of class appeal, class legislation, and even class consciousness from the movement and I believe that this convention marks an important milestone in the history of Canada." Good Disagrees-- W. C. Good, M.P. for Brant, and one ! of early leaders in the farmer move- | ment protested against anything in the semblance of a new party being form- ed. It was simply aggravating instead . of improving the present situation by , creating a third party and that in real- ity it would simply be a third old party under a mew name. "The Pro- gressive party proposal a step backwards, let us rather go farward," he said. Cities Not Represented-- The gathering in the Labour temple of which Ontavio's first Progressive party was officially launched, opened at noon with over 300 delegates from all sections of the Province ' present. Toronto was the only purely urban centre represented and this was re- (cognized by the election of Dr A. §. Coyne of the Toronto Association as First Vice-President of the new Pro- vineial organization. Facing Difficult Winter. WALDHOF--Winter is nearly upon Us once more. Clover Seed is nearly all threshed. Re- turns = are, considering everything, quite satisfactory. Only a few samples will grade No. 1, owing to the late season. ~ And there is only part of the fall plowing done. 5 48 is Prospects are not very bright this winter, the wood market being very dull, since there is only a limited de- mand for pulpwood. We are facing a very difficult winter. Many are speculating as to what the Northerr Development Branch is going to do on some of their promises such as, gravel- ling, and cutting of roads. ® * On Saturday, November 15th, a very pretty wedding took place, when Miss Tina Zolmer and Mr Lother Euler, were united in marriage. Mr IL Eular, coming here with his father, R. Euler, were the first settlers to attempt to make a home and start farming in our community. Therefore it was only natural that everybody took a keen interest in the affair. The couple receiving many pretty and use ful presents from their many. friends. The young couple' will reside at the homestead of Mr L. Euler, in the Township of Mutrie. Quibell W. I. A specially interesting meeting of the Women's Institute was held at the home of Mrs Williams, on Friday the The meeting was got up. on very short notice, owing to the presence in Quibell for one day of Miss Wilkinson, R.N. Nursing Director, Canadian Red Cross Society. Miss Wilkinson gave an interesting talk on the Red Cross and their "Peace Time Work" which was very interesting, and she outlined the con- ditions under which the Resident Nurse could be placed at Quibell. The need has long been felt for this service, and the suggestion was met with enthusiastic approval. The Quibell Institute is now organized to enlist help from everyone in the district for this purpose and we hop to be able to open a Red Cross Outpost here in the near future. * # x THE DRYDEN PHARMACY @ WINTER The time you need a reliable HOT WATER BOTTLE We have the largest variety ever seen in Dryden. {suit all.

WORLD SHORTAGE ON WHEAT--- Ottawa, Nov. 17.--The world has an estimated bread grain shortage of 574,000,000 bushels 274,000,000 bushels, comprising 401, 00,000 bushels of wheat and 173,000,- J00 bushels of rye. For Europe alone there is an estimated bread grair shortage in comparison with last year. The estimate is based on official re- turns to the International Institute of Agriculture, Rome, from all the impor- tant countries of + the world except Russia, and shows an increased defi- ciency as compared with previous astimates. It is not improbable, however, that Government regulation and economies 'mposed by high prices arising from deficiency of supply will operate to reduce the normal consumption = by 30,000,000 to 40,000,000 bushels at the same time that the same causes will stimulate export of a very large pro- portion of available surplus. In norm- al years, there is an excess of actual exports to meet the effective demand; the present season offers no probabili- ty of such an occurrence. of wheat, and' Morning at 11.00--Story to children You | Gough's Confectionery "CRESCENT" Ice Cream Bricks assorted, each 40c ESKIMO PIES five for 25¢. a -- 0 O CREAM PUFFS per dozen 6oc. o DELICIOUS APPLES OQ Zhe dor np 00 25¢C.
