Thursdays. T HAS been estimated that five acres of land are require? _ naintain one horse for a year, and that the same five acres wou.d produce nearly enough food for two lgeople. If 50,000 Canadian farmers each replaced one horse with a Ford, 250,000 acres would be added to the Nation‘s source of food supply and enough extra food made available to feed 100,000 people. Just think what a great service this means to the country at the present time and the benefit to the farmers from the sale of food produced on this acreage. A Ford car 2lso saves the farmer a week or more of valuable time each year, which can be used for further productive work. â€" The Ford travels three times as fast as a horse and rigoâ€"eosts less to run and keep, and is ar easior to take care of. With labor so scarce and high priced, time ‘cans money, so do not delay in getting your Ford. ons to Miss Mary Meâ€" . _A.

The youth respected the aged by takâ€" ing the bardess work to do (but none too hard ) We had the pleagure of sitting up in the Speakers‘ gallery and viewing those in authority on the main flsor of the large hall.

So we hope for our dear and noble British \Empire to come out victorious before |long. _ So we hope and our expectaâ€" | tiong are that we are to be favored by | peace throughout cur land from shore to shore in the near future.

How many a brave young man one year ago enjoyed the Eastertide at the old homes and on this Easter Sunday, are lying oo the batlefield whle some received a christran burial. The thoughts of fathers and mothers are on this E«ster morn centred on their dear sons who as yet as far as known, are in the trenches doing their duty in defence of our King and Country. ’Satnrday night and bis many friends are pleased te see him looking so well and feeling fairly well in health.

S wund, left for overâ€" seas in October 1916, took part in many important engagements, was wounded at the battle of the Somme‘ and bas been in an Englisgh hospital for over a year, so we are sure he is badly in need of a long earned rest.

Mr. MceGillivray is a solid preacher though not a fast speaker. Coming back to Priceville again we thought of the old adage that there is no place like home, be it ever so humble in appearance.
