LOCAL DIFFERENT FROM SAM- 3ON (Bruce Herald and Times) Mr. Lawrence Drumm, the barber, who has trimmed the locks off many of the local sisters ie now troubled with sore eyes,, an_affection that might give him cause for alarm when he recollects that Samson's blindness was directly connected with a bobbing incident in his day. But fortunately for Drumm his ts not a case of history repeating. with the fate of Samson awaiting him around the corner. On the contrary, some poisonous weeds that he had been handling are responsible for the sore- ness in his blinkers, he having rub- bed his vision after touching» the fauna, thus putting his periscope out of commission for a spell.

The radio is geo common that we have almost ceased to wonder at its marvels.

A simple, box- like affair, somewhat similar to the loud speaker will be attached to any radio receiver, and @ baseball game, an operatic performance, a political meeting, or a Church Conference will be thrown on the screen many anes away. This is the claim o ers Jenkins, who invented the FE ob A picture projecting machine, and who claims that “radio vision'’ is already being demonstrated daily in. his lab- oratory in Washington, Not long ago men would have stated without any hesitation that Mr. Jenkins undoubt- edly had “bees in his bonnet,’ bit now they simply say, “Well, what next?

GET THE MOST EFFECTIVE MEANS (London Advertiser) A farmer of Dereham Township was fined $50 and costs for cruelty to animals. The cruelty consisted of allowing five cows to starve to death, and the remainder of the herd “were hardly able to stand ow!ng to their weakened condition,” The man appeared in court and paid the $50 fine. showing that he Was not without méans for provid- me the necessary feed for the ani- als. The St. Thomas Times-Journal is inclined to disagree with the verdict, holding that taking $50 away from the convicted man was not adequate punishment. The Times-Journal “How he could calmly go on having three meals for himself ev- ery day, no doubt, and not disturb himself about even the barest sus- tenance for the helpless animals that were unfortunate enough to be in his hands, passes ordinary com- prehension.” uMmané society officers in various Looked Over Your summer wardrobe yet?

One time Kincardine had a most prosperous bowling club. t was up largely through the selfishness of a few men who did not care-to” pelt: with others who were not bowlers, They would sit around ood wait for one another. The Indiffer- ent bowler was passed up. He did not. get a chance. The membership dwindled until only a few continued to follow the game. There were not enough interested to keep It alive. What killed the club? The selfishness of those who took no delight in mingling or playing with those who wanted to sn't _“amall town stuff’ alone. It is the same old selfishness that is found In the big town or anywhere you go. ° a FIREWORKS AT PICTURE SHOW (Bruce Herald and Times) A sensation not on the program was staged at the local picture show on Saturday night, when some. local urchins who had been doing- a¥ little practising with fire-crackers on the street in preparation for the Vittoria Day bombardment a wee ence, opened the side door of the. theatre », and tossed a bunch of fireworks on- to the floor near the stage. ~ Soon- there was a nolse Hke the \ crack of. doom and women gan to do a scream as an evidence that the reign of terror had arrived.

The hilarity within only increas- ed. the mirth fronr without,and the joy of the boys was unconfined for a time at least. But their pleasure was short-lived, for speed-artist had been despatched for the police and soon the shadow of Chief Fergu- son was seen moving lively -on ine horizon. The boys took this as a sig- nal to «lecamp, and like the Tight of Mahomet they did the disappeag- ing act in a business-like manner the officer arrived, but he was able to get_the names of the mischievous urchins and eventually round them up for a police-court hearing, which takes place before Magistrate.

In Arthur, he says, there is now only one implement agent and a large firm has been trying to secure a rep- resentative for thelr ne of goods without success. 5 a town such as Arthur, sery- ing an unusually large farming dis- trict, the implement business, one would naturally expect would be a profitable staple trade, but such does not seem to be the case. Gar- ages, on the other hand, are flour- ishing. In Arthur there are sotne five or six. The automobile,- which .is more or less of a luxury, maintains an easy lead over the essential farm implement. An \implement traveller assured us the ‘other day that for the price of a Ford sedan he eould place on any one hundred acre farm, a complete set of implements, suf- ficient to carry on all essential farm work for fifteen years. He then pro- ceoded to produce the figures ani after making out a Hist which in- cluded every necessary implement from binder to a manure spreader he had $35 left which he said weu'r keep the outfit in ofl for mn cone'd erable period.
