Truck Delivery LET'S HAVE A SETH PARKER CLUB HERE 'Each Sunday night thousands upon thousands of residents of Canada and the United States lower their lights at 10.45, and in the big cosy wold- fashioned living room of the Seth Parker Homestead, they join with the Jonesport neighbours in a half hour of old time hymns, interspersed with the very human conversations of the neighbours between the vocal num- bers. We haven't a doubt that nine out of every ten in Bowmanville pos- sessing a radio await this program each Sunday evening, and then join with the thousands from 'Atlantic to Pacific and from Mexico to the Hud- son's Bay in the simple but impres- sive service, In view of the times last Sunday's program seemed unusually interesting and appropriate. Apparently Jones- port was not overlooked when the de- pression spread its tenacles over the whole world, and so we find Seth Parker making a plea for the needy of the little fishing village. With his neighbours he starts a Seth Parker Club, every member of which con- tributes 25c. or more per week as a membership fee and this money pro- vides the nucleus of a fund to care for "those of our neighbours who have fallen by the wayside." The Club not only plans-to help in a material way, but perhaps of greater import- ance it starts on its way of promoting good cheer among those whom it is planned to help. The program on Sunday night, emanating from the gathering around the blazing log fire in the Parker home "just over the brow of the hill," provided food for thought. Why not let the Public Welfare Board be Bow- manville's Seth Parker Club, and why not let every citizen who is able con- tribute to its support? For the aver- age working man, or woman, no better idea could be entertained than that contained in Seth Parker's appeal, that everyone contribute 25c a week to the poor, unemployed and needy. There are some who can afford to give more and there will be ne fimit on the amount that-may be given, but Vination of Troe entry with intermediate and general rates. : ~ Alcoholic © beverages, including liquors, 'wines and ales, are favored up to as high as $2 a gallon as with the former rates, while cigarets| and tobacco share largely in the re- ductions. and Jute Cotton, woollen, Nien, i fabrics In a wide variety on classifica tions will have increased preferences ranging from free to one-third of the former rates. Leathers are given wider preference both by reduced preferential rates and increased intermediate and general rates, ~ Hides and skins, whether dry, salted or pickled, and raw pelts will be free from all countries. These were pre- viously free from British sources, but had intermediate and general rates of 10 and 15 per cent. Anthracite will have an increased preference of 10 cents a ton. Dairy machinery, including cream separators, will have increased inter- mediate and general tariffs and re- duced preferential rates. All kinds of automobiles and motor- cycles will have free entry where the preferential rate was formerly from 12% to 15 per cent. In the case of motorcycles the general and inter- mediate rates are increased also, motor busses remain unchanged, as do motor parts. Increased intermediate and general tariffs have been applied to scores of chemical compounds, which enter free. Radios and parts, including bat- teries, get a preference of 15 per cent. iE dei SOUTH ONTARIO TEACHERS HELD FINE CONVENTION At the annual convention of the South Ontario Teachers' Institute held in Westmount School, East Whitby, some very fine addresses on timely topics were given. The convention, in the opinion of Public School Inspector R. A. Hutchison, was one of the most successful held in the history of the Institute. There was a full registra- tion of the teachers of the inspector- ate. i Thursday morning and afternoon, we do believe that the average person who is working at all steady could easily contribute 25c. per throughout the winter months and thus put the Welfaré Fund over the top. At the same time the other part of Mr. Parker's idea might be carried out. It costs nothing to say a kindly word or do a kindly act, so why not just try and bring a little good cheer to those whose lot is not so happy as it might be? --Bowmanville Statesman. lh A SUMMARY OF TARIFF REDUCTIONS. Widened British preferential rates on 223 items in the Canadian list are granted in the tariff changes moved in the House of Common last week, the result of the Imperial Economic Con- ference agreements. Iron and steel in raw state re- stricted to use for forgings, iron and steel parts and machines for Ase in Canadian factories only, all forms of wire, tramway tracks, mining ma- chinery, are given preference either in the form of reduced rates or a com- week | ' noon the teachers visited in a body the and Friday morning were spent in convention sessions.

LANDS WARNS AGAINST BULB ADVERTISEMENTS The 'Times has received from the Consul-General of the Netherlands, at Montreal, a pointed warning regard- ing certain people in Holland who ad- vertise flower bulbs in Canadian papers, and is asking that these ad- vertisements be ignored. His mes- sage to The Times, is as follows: "A few reliable people in the Neth- erland (Holland) are trying, under various assumed names, to advertise flower bulbs in Canadian papers. "These advertisements are not paid for cheques in payment have proven spurious. "Moreover, those who, acting upon you consult me before publishing any advertisement of Netherland bulb bulbs. : "I therefore beg to suggest that you consult me before publishing any advertisement of Netherland bulbs exporters." --tee tl PAP PP. SPEED OF BIRDS J. Wentworth Day, in Passing Show, London. Grouse can travel at sixty miles an hour. A bird going at a mile a minute needs a quick eye and a decisive brain to stop him-- which is why shooting is one of the finest tonics in the world for nerves. No nervy person can shoot well and remain nervy. Unconsciously, the need for instant thought and instant action braces the whole nervous sys- tem into one swiftly acting, co- ordinated whole. The grouse's mile a minute is put in the shade by its other Scots compeer, the black-cock, who whips over the guns like a shell at sixty-eight miles an hour, while the golden plover, whose high, clear whistle epitomises the very spirit of the high moors, can fly a cool seventy. The teal, that lovely little duck which flicks like a rocket from the peat- brown splashes in the hags, is the fastest bird in the British Isles. A partridge cannot do more than fifty- three, but a pheasant can touch a level sixty, a wild goose fifty-! wild duck forty-eight and a swallow only thirty-six.

A few minutes later they had Ella's - cheery promise. -Once ' more, in an emergency, Long Distance had proved quick, de- pendable -- and surprisingly in- expensive.
