OTHER PAPERS’ 0P1N10NS There 13 Money in Farming The "poor” farmer is not. always poorâ€"in fact is not generally poor. A young farmer settled in the Webb district. Saskatchewan. in 1916, as a hired man. He bought a farm in 1918 at $40 an acre. has paid for his land and to-day is worth $25,000. No doubt he worked very hard, but even so his success is worthy of note. The trouble is not always with the country. It is sometimes with the man if he fails to make good.â€"-â€"Acton Free Press. PAGE 6 Is the "fall ploughing” which since this section of Ontario was first cleared, has been thought of as the big job of the autumn, going to become a thing of the past in North Wellington? Probably not entirely. but certainly in recent years it has been largely replaced by summer cultivation. Summer fallowing is becoming more general. while many are making a practise of ploughing up their meadows just as soon as the hay is taken oil. In this way, an effective amount of cultivation can be done. Sow thistle roots can thus be turned up to the hot summer sun -" Farm Methods Changipg u -.< 1 and destroyed. One West Luther farmer. who last week had not com- mencwl harvesting. had his forty- five acres ploughed for next year's (3mm and thoroughly cultivated. Prehaps never before was sow thistle so general in the townships adjacent to Arthur as during the past season. and it is quite evident that the old methods of farming, when grain was often sown on the stubble and a good crOp harvested. are no longer possibleâ€"Arthur En- terprise. A Poor Job '5' The Law C(mstruction Co. moved its equipment. from this point the latter part. of the week. their con- tract on the highway being finished. The last piece. of road. termed traf- fic hound macadam. is proving far from satisfactory and. isn't much of a boon to motorists. However. the job will have to be put up with till the Provincial authorities see fit to change the surface. It's one of the poorest. jobs we have run across on a provincial highway. We are sur- prised the Provincial road author- ities sanctioned the construction of such a road on such a main travel- if“! highway.â€"Dundalk Herald. Gone Dafiy on Dress No girl in her teens should be encourged to turn up her nose at cotton hosiery or to make odious remarks on the apparel of other gir 5 attending school. One Sillld- ders almost. to think of the etl'ect ot' such upbringing. and parents who deliberately seek to display the young girls in tine and expensive raiment ought to consider the pos- sible serious effect created in the child‘s outlook on life. There are. schools that discourage the wearing of linery during school hours, and others. often of a private. nature, that order all pupils to wear uni- forms. Without. going to extremes. it ought to be made incumbent on every schml statl' to discourage any tendency in the pupils to extrava- garce or immodesty in school attire. Girls graduating from collegiates should be expert in history. langu- ages and the sciences, not. experts in fashion.â€"-«'l'he Galt Reporter. When Work is Play There is a lesson for grown-up men and women in that felicity of childhmul to make play out. of work. Many adults can recall when "aâ€" bringiug home the cows" was made the occasion for a bufl'alo stampede and the real wild west and lasso sort of cow punching. and the fun which made play of the harvest la- bor. and the snow house and snow man which made walk shovelling great sport. as well as the many play games that came of raking the leaves, running errands, beating rugs. Was there anything men can call work which those same men as boys could not. have made a rip- snOrting good game of it? - ‘- :I- “‘n nnn‘ SHUI‘LIUE évuu 81.11:» V. --- Making play of work is the real secret of happiness. Happiness is never attained through slaving to- day. in anticipation of being able. financially. to play to-morrow. The man who takes a pleasure in his workâ€"makes play of itâ€"is enjoying life to its full. He does not need to depend upon financial independence for his happiness. He is the man or woman the world has always mis--j taken for the inspired genius be- cause “love of work“, “ambition", and "inspiration" are words foreign to a world finding in work nothing but. "toil". "slavery“ and working for nothing but “repose". "labor”. “struggle" and “drudgery.” “relaxa- tion". and a perpetual holiday. ~3L‘- -ilknn lIUIL . uuu u 3;.r----.._ _ Love of work is impossible either in digging ditches or sculptering eternal marble. but good work is only possible from men and women who make play of their work. To the eye and ear it seems paradox- ical. but the mind has long since conceived that human work plays less at their workâ€"Aurora Banner. Occasionally somebody gets the paper does not report every scandal that comes to public knowledge is because the publisher is afraid. That is not the reason. The rep-ut- able newspaper. especially where everyone IS a neighbor to everyone else. takes no delight in giving pub-l licity to those things that have brought disgrace to some family or heartache to some wife or mother. It is much more pleasant and does not leave a bad taste in the mouth to record the good things that hap- pen. to tell of the incidents that tend to make olife more endurable and that uplift. rather than tear down. that bring Joy instead of heartaches. . . We appreciate any item of local What Is Nun}? interest unless that item digs into and lay-S bare things over which a mother, a wife. husband or father may have been racked with sorrow and humiliation.â€"Lynwood ‘Cal., Tribune. The Value of a Band Congratulations to Meaford Band in winning first prize in its class at. the C. N. E. A band is a great ac- quisition to any urban centre and is an excellent advertising medium- We doubt. if the citizens of any town appreciate the band as it should be appreciated. The Bruce Regimental Band is a great asset to tlhesley and it would be a dull, dead town without that musical organiza- tion. Yea. music is the Prophet’s art; Among the gifts that God hath sent One of the most magnificent.â€" Chesley Enterprise. â€"â€"_____â€" They Know All About It The Toronto afternoon papers have surely by this time exhausted every particle of speculation as to why George Young dropped out‘ of the race at the Exhibition. First they had it that cramps seized himâ€" then they said that it was not so. One paper says that Young has a broken heart; that must be very se- rious for a young man who has to make a living. Another writer takes two columns to say that the attention of the public had made him nervous. Brushing aside all these we. read at great length that he used too many beats to a stroke, or strokes to_ a_bea_t; that he had his arm crooked the wrong way; that. he had to be out in front or out. of the race entirely. So it goes. column al’ler column, most of it plain applesauce writtenby men who. for the most part couldn’t swim 100 yards with one toe on bottomâ€"Stratford Beacon-Herald A Lot of Dubs? The last evening aboard (referâ€" ring to a recent boat trip on Geor- gian Bay and Lake Huron) we or- ganized a concert. It fell to myself to hunt up the talent. I canvassed every man and woman aboard for contributions of some kind to the entertainment. Could they sing, re- cite, dance a jig, tell a story, play Aâ€"M" 5'---~-. -â€"v Mr. J. L. Baird, youthful British inventor, who gave a demonstration on his latest device, the "Noctovisor,” before the meeting of the British Association of Scientists, in London. This wonderful apparatus transmits images over telephone wire by means of the invisible infra-red rays. and the subject may sit in total darkness and his image is caught, and carried by this in- vention. The above picture was taken during Mr. Baird’s demonstration before the Associa- tion. when an image was transmitted from a dark room in Leeds, 200 miles from London, to a screen attached to the apparatus.
