Widmeyer or Ayton, was brought to the Hanover hospital for x-ray examination on Monday, having caught her arm in the wringer of a washing machine. The young girl was in the kitchen while her mother was doing the washing. and in some manner got her arm in the wringer. The examination here revealed no broken bones, but the arm some objection to this, but the fact remains that those who pay these Old Age Pensions have a right to know who is receiving them.â€"Pem- broke Standardoomerver.

Making A Joke of Population Question What a joke some of our legislators are making of the population question in Canada! Just a few years ago the Dominion government was moving heaven and earth to persuade immi- grants to come to Canada, and were subsidizing steam ship lines and rail- ways for bringing them to this land of promise where all could become rich! Today these same jokers are trying to get rid of a lot of those who listened to their siren call in past years. They are singling out those who have not become naturalized and those who have been receiving civic aid, for deportation. This will give the railways and steamships a little more business and Canada will pay the shot both coming and going. There is a cynical note in this paragraph, but do you not sthink it is justified?-â€"Flesherton Ad- } vance. wind and sun soon put. it back into a condition for convenient travelling.

This brought the pavenment in from Elm St. and there- by finished from the Grey County townline into Hurontario street. Work on the shouldering is now under way and will be rushed to completion.

Such a by-law ought to work out well in Chesley too. It is not long ago since we passed a boy at 10 pm. on the streets of Chesley smoking a cigarette and, judging by his size he could not have been over 14 years. The place for children in the evening is at home in their beds. Young men and girls who have been turning night into day by attending public dances till almost morning, gambling, and in drunken revelries are starting on the downward course as recent magistrate cases in this town have disclosed. At a recent public dance in this town it was necessary to send for the constable to restore order. As a matter of fact the constable makes a visit to every public dance. Why should this be nec- essary?-â€"Chcslcy Enterprise. Florence, four-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Herman Boettger of the 2nd of Saugeen, met with a dis- tressing accident while playing in a field, where her brother, Eldon, was cutting hay, which may cost the little tot the loss of her right foot. Eldon had been resting the team for a spell and did not notice his little sister come up from behind and step over the mower blade to playfully stroke one of the horses. At that moment Eldon started the team and was hor- rified, on hearing the child scream, to see her caught in the knives, with blood streaming from her foot. After frantically carrying her to the house Child Gets Feet in Mower. a doctor was immediately summoned, who found that the knives had out about half way through the bone a- bove the ankle. The child was rushed to the Owen Sound hOSpital, where it is feared the foot may have to be amputated. However, everything pos- sible is being done to save the foot. There is an abundance of everything this year, including snakes, according to the Mitchell Advocate: “We don’t remember a year when we have seen as many. There is one section of our town which for some reason or other seems to have attraction for these reptiles, and that is the district along the eastern bank of the mill pond. Scarcely a day passes without sev- eral being seen. A few days ago a lady in this locality was pulling weeds in a flower bed and yanked out a snake by the tail, thinking it was a weed. This finished weeding for a day or two. Another lady was picking cucumbers when a viper turned its nose up at her. The cucumbers were permitted to grow after that. A third lady was in her garden gathering some fruit and a snake crawled up on the fence and kept her company, but just for a second. These reptiles may be harm- less, but they don‘t look good to us. Some say they are the garter species, but to us they might just as well be a twenty-foot python or a sixty foot boa constrictor.” Seeing Snakes at Mitchell. Home-Made Fiddle Won Ex. W: The fiddle used by Harry Soper The fiddle used by Harry SOper, 75- year-old Rathburn model canoe build- er, when he won second prize in the old-time fiddling contest at the Can- adian National Exhibition, was fash- ioned by himself last winter out of a stick of cordwood. In making the fiddle, Mr. SOper car- ved the wood by hand. He is a model builder of ability and out at his home at Rathburn he has a rare collection of wood-work made by himself. He possess model canoes, paddles, axes, picture frames and violins that are so skilfully made that visitors are of- ten amazed when they learn that they were carved out by an aged man with such rough tools as a jack-knife and other ordinary working materials. Mr. SOper has been a resident of Rathburn for ten years and is well known in this district. At the exhibition. Mr. SOper was pitted against the best oldâ€"time fidd- lers in the country, but his playing so delighted the crowds of music lovers that the judges awarded him second prize in the gold medal contest; second only to D. Yarzwell of Arkell. The winner used a new vioin for the occasion, an instrument imported from France. The oldest fiddler to take part in the competition was Thomas Pflkie of Agincourt. He was 82 years of age. The awards were as follows: Class I.â€"0ver 65 years, D. Tarzwell, 84 marks, Harry Soper, Rathburn, 82 marks; James McQueen, Toronto, 81 marks. Class II.â€"â€"50 to 55 years-G. E. Haw- Proton Station, 82; John Nickell, Lime- house, 81 and M. P. Bowes, Toronto. 80 marks. Hon. G. Howard Ferguson, Canadian High Commissioner to Great Britain; accompanied by Mrs. Ferguson, re- turned to Kemptvilie, their native vil- lage, on Sunday, for a short visit. Clippfn ca number of comments on the Economic Conference from a ver- iety of sources we append a few for the benefit of readers who read the summaries of the agreements effected. Stoneham, special correspondent of the Chicago Daily News says that the Sov- iet Rusia believes her trade with Britain has suffered the severest kind of blow. Argentia’s ambassador to Britain, re- turning there, offers the opinion that the agreements may make consider- able difference to the Empire trade of the Argentine. The Detroit News, leading American newspaper, thinks the treaties entered into will mean much for the whole Empire and asks if the United States is going to be distanced in the race for foreign trade. Mr. Stanley Baldwin, back in Eng- land, says the Conference was an “un- expected success" and that it will mean greatly increased Empire trade. And so and so forth from states- men, industrialists and economists. It is not a question of propaganda. nor of the wish being father of the thought. The Financial Post publishes cold figures which show that the agree- ments arrived at cannot but make a vast difference They indicate that over $1,000,000 of United Kingdom trade it affected. Renewal of the Feeder Purchase Policy designed to encourage the win- ter feeding of cattle and lambs of suitable type and quality is announ- ced by the Hon. Robt.
