Your presence will assist the Red Cross and you are assured of'a waning of pleasure Plan tobe there. A very important Proclamation appears on page 8 of this issue. Read it all. It deals with men of Class 1 who for any reason have not yet reported for duty under the Military Service Act, or have failed to report iirhen called upon, or otherwise ignored the claims of the Can- adian Expeditionary Force. These men are practically deserters and liable to punishment and this proclamation names -24th of August, 1918 -as the latest chance they will have of standing in good with their country. The penalties apply also to anyone aiding, or abetting, or con- cealing such deserters. We hope there iwill be no examples of deserter punish- ‘ meat in our diarict. . In conversation with a weekly news 1 p iperman a few days ago the represent- ative of a Toronto tirm expressed the , opinion that the day of the town merchant had returned if he only realized it. He pointed out the cost of doing business in the big cities had mounted so high during the past three years that the department- al stores could no longer afford to give real bargains any more. but that the country merchant, whose costs have not risen in proportion, could under-sell the big lellow on almost any article This seems to be a well founded statement, for i a few weeks ago the wife of a wage-eamer in a nearby' town wanted to get a suit of clothes for her little boy. She first visit- ed the local stores that sell that class of goods, examined the quality and got prices. She saw an ad. of the depart- mental store making a special sale of boys' suits and she went to the city next day intending to take advantage ofthe bargain. In the departmental storeshe found prices much higher for a poorer quality of goods. As a result she bought her boy a suit at the local store. This is an actual happening. But country mer- chantshnvegot intoarutanditisreally doubtful if they will wake t?getly tullsdvantage of the opportunities that! present themselves to-day. The war/ which has turned everything upside down hacrested opportunities at every turn.

WORKING Up.~Sergt. Alex Turnbull, son of John Turnbull, formerly of Bor.. noch, sends thanks to staff and pupils of Durham High School for \box remem brance. He is now takinga course in England at completion of which he will rank lieutenant, which will be his fourth promotion. Congratulations. Lman Dauvxmr BY Anni. MAIL- --Agincourt had a very unique special aerial mail delivery yesterday when a let- ter was received from Ray F Marianna. a gunner of the 67th University of Torons to Battery, at Petawawa. The letter, addressed to the gynner's brother, was given to a Flight-Lieutenant who was m:.lcing an airplane trip to Toronto, fol- lowing the C. P. R. tracks. He promised to drop the communication on the plat- form of the Agincourt station and suc- ceeded in doing so. The letter was deliv- ceeded in ered last [ Obituary. JOHN ECKHARDT Our Priceville and N. Egremont cor- respondents c:ich refer to the passing of John Fckhardt, one of the best known men on 2nd Con., South Glenelg. A stroke of paralysis proved fatal in a few days. We have little to add to what our corres- pondents have. He was of German de. scent, a good neighbor, a good citizen and was a progressive farmer, since coming to Glenelg over 40 years ago. Gunner John Bell Remembered Monday night last, the home of Mrs! John Bell, was en fete, to do honor to her third son, John, who was home on final leave from Petawawa Camp, where he is a gunner in the 67th Battery. The even- ing was an ideal one, consequently the lawn was utilized to its full extent ', some: thing over one hundred having gathered. Social intercourse was indulged in till darkness settled down, and this was fol- lowed by an impromptu program. At an appropriate time, the address, given below was read by Miss Eliza Patterson and Mr Will Weir presented the puree which con- tained a sum of money, as well as full of good wishes and sentiments from the people of No. 9 section. John has always been a resident in this section until teach- ing duties took him away, and we are quite confident in stating no better speci- 'men of manhood ever left the section to he p win the world for Democracy. John {responded quite aptly and wanted all to l know he would do his full share it the war i hung out till he reached the front. Mr W. J. Young was chairman and! called off the remainder which consisted of speeches by Messrs Allan Bell, T hos. Park, W. L. Dixon, songs by Messrs Thus Binnie, P. Ramage, and duett by Misses Jessie Bell and Marietta Park. Alight lunch was served after which God Save the King closed the meeting. Sincere) wishes went out to John that good for-j tune may attend him and bring him safe- ly home again. To Private John Bell, l Once more we have assembled tobid goodbyeand God speed toone oiour number who goes forth to help uphold the name which our brave Canadians have made-tt name which even our en- exiles acknowledge and tear. Our Gov- ernment has seen fit to demand the ser- vicee of our Canadian manhood in order to hold the line ‘over there,' hut you rea- lizing thg' need freely fit? your services without waiting for the call. We therefore take this opportunity to express our appreciation of your ready and willing response to nerve your King and Country in the cause of liberty-ree, in that titanic struggle not alone of the nations involved but of the world at large. The progrese of the allies within the last few weeks it giving us reason to hope that that mic is approaching its culmination. And we hope when you uncalled to do yourbit it maybeto batter down the defences of Berlin and toreplace the Kaiser's mule withthe tiatps of the Allies.
