At the beginning of the year our lo- cal body set out to cut expenses to the bone, reducing salaries of some of the officials, dispensing with the services of others and generally cutting costs wherever it could reasonably be done. Now we_can_ see the federal government taking much the same action, only on a larger seale, the provincial government taking stock of its civil service and planning reorganization that is intended to attain a saving and the inauguration of a general feeling throughout the country that this is at least partly the sol- ution of the present depression. We can reflect that we really set an example that is being fol- lowed by those in high places, whether intentionally or not, and that if the outcome be what it is hoped it will be, our municipal government had the right 'dope" it the beginning. In any event we can say with truth that we "beat them to it." Use Only Best Seed Whether Temiskaming farmers will be large exhibitors at the big World's Grain Show next year will no doubt depend to a large extent on the success met with during the present season. In any event, the following advice from a high authority should be timely ' "Regarding the preparation of exhibits for the World's Grain Exhibition to be held at Regina in 1932, L. H. Newman, Domin- ion Cerealist, advises sowing the best seed obtuinable on a piece of specially prepared ground, letting the crop fully matyre, cutting and shocking it as usual. The best stooks should be covered, protected from the weather, and the best heads threshed by means of a flail. The grain then should be run through a sieve and later hand-picked to get the most uni- form\seeds, because at a Fair of this kind the competition will be very keen and the prizes are worth working for. Purity of variety will be a very important factor at this World's Grain Ex- hibition because a growing test will be made with every sample submitted. No Daylight Saving Here Apparently there is little or no hope that there will be any gen- eral measure of daylight saving adopted in the North Country for a time at least. In the winter the brought Ontario matter was before the Northern Associated Boards of Trade and was refer- red back by that body to the in- dividual Boards, to be handled as they saw fit. Since then there has been nothing heard of the proposal and it may be concluded that there is no particular demand for such a measure. It is a question on which there is always considerable difference of opinion. In almost every com- munity there are some who would welcome an extra hour of daylight during the summer months, while on the other hand there are many who believe that the resulting confusion over the change in time would prove too great an obstacle. Personally, we have always held that the benefits would far outweigh the disadvantages, that the extra hour of daylight would prove a boon to many people and that there need be no great difficulty experienced in making the change We are still of the same mind, al- though our hopes of seeing such an arrangement put into force in our own particular district are growing dimmer each year. It appears that the majority are a- gainst us and that we must be contented with the old system for a time at least. great masters to favorite songs everyone knows. In addition there will be solos, duets, etc., by promising pupils of Mr. Smith, who also directs the orchestra: Those who have attended these annual events in the past will be glad to know that another oppor- tunity is to be presented to enjoy a high class musical entertain- ment. The recital was given in New Liskeard last night and the date has been set for a perform- ance in Cobalt.

Made First Spring Trip Haileybury to Timmins Mr. and Mrs. Cecil Storms, ac- companied by "Dutch" Villeneuve and Mr. Storms' brother, were the first motorists to drive from Haileybury to Timmins this year, when they made the trip to the gold camp on Sunday last. From Ramore north they were the first to drive over the highway by car since last fall and found the go- ing not too 'bad, although they ran into snow' in some places. They report that for some dis- tance on the northern end of the route they followed sleigh tracks on the road, as there was a fall of some inches in the northern part of the area last week. It was said to have reached a depth of 10 inches in the town of Coch- rane on Friday night. The trip up was made in nine hours, and the party returned on Tuesday. HER MAJESTY ATTENDS SOCIETY WEDDING Qeen Mary was caught by the camera in this happy, smiling pose as she was leaving St. Margaret's Church, Westminster, Lon- don, after the wedding of Miss Ann Keppel, daughter of Sir Derek Keppel, Master of the Royal Household, to Philip Broadstead. The bride's father can be seen to the right of the picture. A PROMINENT advertising mar. told me once that the national advts. of a certain breakfast food played up the cartoon of a ficti- tious character to such an extent that the food itself was crowded into the background. "T could mention this character," he said, "to a score of people, picked at random, and very few of them would think of the food to which it was designed to direct atten- tion."

The slang of today may be the orthodox of tomorrow. The man who wins the first prize for wheat at the World's Grain Exhibition and Conference at Regina in 1932 will be known as "The Wheat King of the World," regardless of what the literati say. and so we continue to use such expressions as "a horse for work," "a good scout," "a modern Milton," "a marathoner to talk," "a snake in the grass," "big boy," "a b'] in a china store," and so on, and so on. In like manner the term "Lipton," in the field of sport, has come, by sheer merit, to stand for the aggregate characteristics of good British sportsmanship. "You're a true Lipton," said a boy's dad the other day when his son begrimed and bedraggled, came into the dressing room after one of the most strenuous games of his rather spectacular career. All the "kid" said to prompt this highest of commendation was, "Well, dad, we did the best we could and lost. The best e."" You know it's advertised so And it's sure to be excitin'." team won."
