Canadians is much to the fore these days, and it is desirable that the history of each county in the prvoince should be preserved. At a recent Women's Institute con- vention it was proposed that every member should write down the history of their parents, and, if possible, their grandparents. This would accomplish a great deal in preserving data, and we would add that some of the tales that have been told us of the deeds done by our forebears should also be incorporated. Our recent pioneer story competition brought forth a great deal of interesting lore of early days on the Bruce Penin- sula, which is, now available for the files of hiss rians.--"Camuiitm Echo (Wizuton).

Why don’t you try making your own artifiicial fishing lures and baits this year and see what satis- faction you get when one of Four own creations hooks into and lands one of those big ones? FROM A WATCHMAKER'S BENCH From a wotehmaker's bench and an optometrist’s assistance came a fishing lure this year which startled tishingdom and brought keen satis- faction to two ardent anglers who had created their own lures. The watehmakor, E. Hensler, with the able assistance of the op- tometrist, Dr. C. Inttwersen, per- fected a spoon that swims like a fish and has been used by great numbers of fishermen this last sea- son with excellent results, The two amateur tishing lure inventors started the spoon making for their own use, but found it so effective and so popular that they had to make some for fishermen friends. They are made of stainless monel metal heads and tails with ilexible bodies.

Amcng neutral countries, the Netherlands were pethaps hardest hit since, during the first nine months of this year, ten mil- lion tons of German exports were transhipped through Dutch terri- tory to points abroad.

It may be a tiull war now, but think aha: wonderful reading it's going to make when the facts come out. They're start- ing, even now. We've learned, for instance, that the first air. raid alarm in Great Britain this year was sounded when a British of- ficial flew over London on his way home from a visit to the Duke of Windsor - his plane was mistaken for an "unidentified" enemy iiehip. We know now, too, why the German invasion of H01- land didn't take place the week- end of Nov. 12 - Hitler decided at the last moment to heed the advice of his generals and call it off (because Belgium would support the Netherlands).
