Over the week- end. three arrests were. made by the police for drunkenness. but they were allowed to go on hail to ap. pear hel‘ore Magistrate Laidlaw on Wednesday morning. Another drunk who was arrested on Friday last. and who spent the time since then at the county jail. was brought up on Monday morning, but. his case was also adjourned until Wednes- day. One. or two other cases are pending, and it. is altogether proba- ble that Magistrate Laidlaw will have a busy session when he mounts the bench on W'bdnesday. Magistrate Laidlaw Adjourned One Case for Two Days. SEVERAL CASES TO CONE UP AT COURT WEDNESDAY But what’s the use? The spend- ers will continue to spend. and when the panic comes, these same spenders who have wasted their substance in riotous living will doubtless turn socialist and 'want the frugal, careful chap who has saved his money to “split” with him and help tide him over the hard times. Mr. Babson also warns his read- ers against the instalment business and says: “Those in the business may be smiling now, but they will be the saddest and most hated in- dividuals on the face of the earth within a few years. Today bank- ing conditions are sound, but cre- dit conditions, taking the country as a whole, are very bad, owing to the great growth of the instalment business that is honeycombing the entire country. This means that a credit panic of large proportions will some day come again.” Nowadays a man who hesitates to pay his grocery or meat bill for forty or fifty dollars has no com- punction about putting a couple of thusand dollars into a high-class motor car (to be paid for in in- stallments of course), or two or three hundred dollars in a radio outfit that will keep him up of nights and further waste his ener- gies. This may be a Gloomy Gus pic- ture of events as they will be pos- sibly only a few short years from now, and no one more than our- selves would wish it to be greatly exaggerated, but with people of moderate circumstances investing all their hard-earned savings in every modern amusement or plea- sure device that can be turned out in these days of invention and pro- duction, we see nothing else for it. “You can’t have your cake and eat it too” is another of the old- time sayings that has long ago been discarded and thrown into the waste-paper basket. This ap- parently is the spending, and not the saving age, and a good many of our present-day spenders will no doubt realize before their “Last Post” is sounded the value of the Houses of Refuge scattered all too thickly throughoutflthe country. Roger W. Babson, the noted sta- tistician, might well save his wind when he warns his readers to get out of debt and stay out. In a recent bulletin, Mr. Babson says we are living too high, borrowing too much money to meet personal expenses and buying too much on credit. Coming as it does from a? man of Mr. Babson’s known rep- utation, his warning might well be heeded, but it is dollars to doughnuts that his warning falls on unheeding ears, and the public will go on living above its income, and when pay day arrives, complain about its poor luck in inability to meet its debts. The 1926 public has lost sight of the old axiom that “a dollar saved is a dollar earned,” and instead of putting by a few dollars for a rainy day, about sev- enty-five per cent of the population is praying for dry weather with never a thought of the possibility of its prayers never being an- swered. Whosoevsr is afraid of submit- ting any question, civil or religious, to the test of free discussion, is more in love with his own opim than with the truth .â€"WA TSON.

He strongly advised the 3 young men of the community who t were not already members to join v up with the Odd Fellows, one of the great. if not. the greatest soci- ety in the world today. Following a humorous quartette. “'l‘he Fortune. Teller." by Misses Bell and Hunter and Messrs. C. Bell and C. Lang. with Miss Ramage as, accompanist. Rev. W. H. Smith was called upon for an address. Mr. Smith’s Address Choosing for his subject, “Begin- ner’s Luck.” Mr. Smith in both hum- orous and serious vein, held his audience for possibly half an hour while he drove home various truths in a manner perhzms never before listened to from a local platform. He chose the amateur rather than the professional in the game of life and stated that it. is often gift, not talent, that wins. He cited that many of the great writers. past and present. were more successful in their first. or amateur offerings than they were later when they had reached the professional stage. Burns. Thackeray. George Eliot. Bryant and others lived in theirtirst offerings rather than in subsequent. ones. Alexander the (treat had changed the map of liurope before he was 30 years of age.

Canada. too, should benefit. It was a young country. has great visions and dreams, and now only faith is needed to make her the outstanding country of the universe. it. was these visions and dreams and faith, not the precedents of the older lands that should gov- ern, and being a young man’s coun- try, only these were needed for her ‘ success. Canada is the finest coun- try, and has the finest future if only the young people had the. nec- essary faith. Canada should lead the world. She had led the world in the last war. When she entered the conflict, war with her was an unknown quantity, but how quickly amt magnificently had she risen to the occasion and done all and more than was demanded of her. The Great War had opened the eyes of the world to Canada, and when it came to smashing the Hindenburg line, it was the Canadian soldier, the “am- 1 ateur“ soldier, who was selected to dthe_ almost. impossible. __ 4 4 - A ‘ â€" 'A M A _.

In his address, he stressed the point that the jewel was a reward for services rendered and aid a decided compliment to Mr. ackson when he said he’was not going to compliment him upon receiving it. Rather, he was going to compliment the Order on hav- ing such men as Mr. Jackson be- come members.

Word has been received here of the death in a Saskatoon hospital on Saturady February 27. of Mr. George Sparli of Bradwell, Sask., husband of the former Miss Eliza- beth Marshall of Allan Park. Mr. Spark was taken down with the flu, and though removed at once to the hospital at Saskatoon, medical aid was unable to save his life. Mrs. Spark is a daughter of Mr. James Marshall, formerly of Bentincl-z, and a cousin of the Marshall families in Normanby. A recent issue of The Paisley Ad- vocate contains the announcement of the death on January 28 at the home of a daughter in Toronto of Mrs. Robert Monkman in her 92nd year. Mrs. Monkman, whose maid- en name was Kezia Poole, was born over 92 years ago, was a pioneer of Arran Township in Bruce Coun- ty, and a woman held in high es- teem. Interment was made in Mount Hope cemetery in Bruce near Pais- ley. Mrs. Monknxan was an aunt of Mrs. (Dr.) Wolfe of this town.

It may happen that changed emic'lititms on a farm make a change of soft dt'sil'ahlt“. Without going into detail, our ob- servations to date lead us to the conclusion that. a change of seed should he made only in the follow- ing cases: H The Dominion Experimental Farm System, conmosed as it is of num- erous widely separated branch farms and working in close co-Operation with local co-Operators, is in a par- ticularly good position to study the question from all angles. A question ocmmonly debated among farmers is “Does it pay to change seed periodically?” says L. H. Newman. Dominion Cerealist. The fact that greater yields frequently result from the use of seed secured from some outside source, has led to the very common belief that seed may lose its ability to reproduce sat- isfactory returns after it has been grown on the same farm for a few years. Another class argues quite as vigorously in attempting to prove that seed actually should improve in its ability to yield the longer it is propagated on the same farm. In other words. they assume that it becomes acclimatized and better fit- ted to cope with he conditions un- der which it has been growing.
