a little grand-daugh- ter, Helen, whom he dearly loved; one brother, Charles, of Holyoke, years ago.Mr.Brown was of a genial disposition, ever ready to lend a helping hand to any one in trouble.but refrained from all publicity, the only office he ever held being School Commissioner on the Elgin board.He was keenly interested in the progress of his home town and was considered one of Elgin\u2019s most prosperous farmers, having followed that occupation on the farm where he was born until the time of his death.Friends from a distance who attended the funeral were Mr.Charles Erown, Holyoke, Mass.and Mrs.Chester Brown, Newburgh, Mass.Winter Sports In Ormstown Will Soon Get Under Way The Ormstown Skating Rink Co.held their annual meeting last week when the former officers were reelected and arrangements made for the coming season.Campbell Brothers were appointed caretakers of the rink.and flooding operations have already commenced, and it is hoped that with a continuation of the present weather that ice will be available the first of the week so that skating may be enjoyed during the holiday season.The Rink Co.have made extensive repairs on the rink to the amount of $500.A new paper fabric roof has been put on and repairs made in the wailing rooms.Curling activities have started.Saturday the Ormstown Club was represented in the Edinburgh Trophy competition held in Montreal when twenty-four of the members took part in the games.McLaren Bros.Dr.W.S.and Postmaster Grant were the only victorious skips.but all others reported they had a very enjoyable day whether on the right side of the score board or not.The local rink is being put in readiness by caretaker Phil Leclair and the curl- crs are practically assured that curling activities will commence the first of next week.The comedy.\u2018Small Town Romeo,\u201d presented in MacDougall Hall on Tuesday evening last by the Athel- stan Young People under the auspices of St.Paul's Young People\u2019s Society, was received by an appreciative audience, who were highly en- tertained by the quick succession of funny situations.All parts were ably presented, and a splendid evening's entertainment was enjoyed by those who attended.The proceeds amounted to over $30.The Executive of the Presbyterian Y.W.A.met on Thursday afternoon at the home of the president, Mrs Alan Hooker.Plans were made for a meeting to be held during the Xmas holidays and a program suggested for the coming year.Tea was served by the hostess.On Monday afternoon a film, showing historical scenes was given by Mr.Ployart for the benefit of Grades VIII and IX.The students of the High School are looking forward to the closing on Friday afternoon.The program will commence at 2 p.m.and will consist of dialogues.musical selections, carols by the senior choir, and recitations will be presented by the students.All parents and friends interested in the school are invited to be present.On Wednesday evening Miss Florence Dunn entertained the teachers of O.H.8.at the home of Miss Welch.Bridge was played at two tables, the hostess serving dainty refreshments at the close.Mr.and Mrs, D.J.A.Ness, Misses Audrey Adams, Ina Bell and Gladys Pelletier, Mr.Lewis Osmond, of Montreal were week-end guests of Mr.and Mrs.J.Ross Bryson.Mr.John K.Dickson spent the week-end in Montreal, pastor.Rev.J.H.Woodside of Ken-, week away.At this It is rather a pity that the ity have had on mankind.and all over the civilized thanks to the saviour of would be served.Let us crooked dealing and try everyone.Christmas spirit.fortunate than we.© Christmas Spirit HRISTMAS, the feast of Christians is but a time of year, more than any other, we are responsive to the principles of Christianity.The founder was so little appreciated by His own people that they had Him crucified and imagined that would be the end of His teachings.people of those days cannot return to this earth and see what a tremendous influence the teachings and principles of Christian- Next Wednesday, we celebrate the birth of Christ world, people will give humanity.At this time, people open up their hearts and catch something of the same spirit which actuated the Lord and Master when He was here on earth.The whole of the life of Christ was dedicated to the service of his fellow men;

the municipalities and provinces would alone be responsible for the latter.The training of youth and a more adequate apprenticeship system was rec- commended.While new policies were being worked out and employment provided wherever possible, it was recommended that the federal government substantially increase its monthly relief grants to the provinces.Though the official statement did not say so, the suggestion is that the increase be from 50 to 100 per cent.and that a large part of the increase be passed along to the municipalities.Thus the general expectation that a considerable part of the burden be lifted from the cities and towns was substantially realised.2.The B.N.A.Act.: By a vote of nine to one, New Brunswick being the dissenter, it was agreed to seek a formula whereby Canada would acquire the power to amend its own constitution, just as Australia and other members of the British Commonwealth do.The Minister of Justice was instructed to convene a meeting of officials to work out a method, this in turn to be submitted to a later Conference.New Brunswick's representative was not in full accord with the resolution as passed.The same committee passed a resolution favoring the draft of new laws so as to provide uniform companies legislation throughout Canada.3.Mining Development and Taxa- Discuss Six Major Problems Which Menace Country\u2019s Recovery By Wilfrid Eggleston major problems were threshed out in; © at Ottawa Conference Members tion.The idea of applying uniform mining taxation in all provinces was abandoned as impracticable.A demand on the part of the provinces for increased depletion allowances on gold mines, and for a portion (50%) of the income tax collected from met- ai mines was considered, and will come before the federal Cabinet.The possibility of stabilizing mining taxation over a period of years was investigated and the principle approved.Furgter reduction of import duties on mining machinery and equipment was agreed to.4.Agriculture.It was agreed to continue efforts to eliminate duplication between Dominion and Provinces in the agricultural field.The federal government was urged to reduce the interest on farm loans to four per cent.to keep the loans to reasonable size and to relax conditions so as to enable all farmers with sufficient security to avail themselves of them.The Dominion was asked to restore its grant of $1.000.000 annually for agricultural education.Export markets for agricultural products in general and potatoes in particular are to be explored and pushed wherever possible.5.Tourist Traffic and National Parks.A stock-taking of Canada\u2019s tourist attractions is to be undertaken and a cooperative policy evolved for their preservation.Tourist bureau services are to be coordinated.National Parks are to be extended to all provinces.It was urged that it is vital to solve the problem of dust- C.E.PLOY ART Principal of Ormstown Mizh School, who takes an active part in church, social and town affairs, as well as successful direction of High School.Quantity Of Alcohol Taken By Mounties Automobiles, Truck Seized By R.C.M.P.Patrolling Near Bridges Local Force Figures Three hundred and seventy-five gallons of low grade United States made alcohol destined for thirsty Montrealers were seized Monday night by Royal Canadian Mounted Police patrolling South Shore roads leading to the three bridges linking Montreal with the southern section of the prô- vince.Three arrests were made and two automobiles and one truck, in which the alcohol had been carefully cached, were seized.The biggest seizure was made by Constables Desaulniers, Lindsay and Bienvenu when they stopped n milk truck driven by a man giving bls name as Euclide Duquette, 35, of Henrysburg, Que.near Victoria bridge and found 250 gallons of alcohol in a specially built eompart- ment covered with cans of milk he was bringing to the city.Duquette was arraigned Tuesday afternoon before Judge Desmarais and, pleading guilty to possessing smuggled alcohol valued at over $200, was fined $1,000 and costs with the alternative of spending the next six months in jail, Two men giving their names Aas Charles Prevost, 27, and Henry Cummings, 35, both of Plattsburg, were arrested by R.CM.P.Constables Ca- hill and Dawson at the Caughnawaga side of the Honore Mercier Bridge after they had found 65 gallons of {l- licit alcohol in a specially built container in the rear of their motor car.Prevost pleaded guilty to a charge of possessing illicit alcohol before Judge Desmarais.and was fined $300 and costs with the alternative of spending four months in jail.Cummings entered a plea of not yullty and trial was fixed for December 19.Ball was fixed at $500 cash or two bonds of $850 each.The third car.a new machine, was seized near Victoria bridge by Constables Desaulniers, Lindsay and Bienvenu after the driver on sighting the policemen, had leaped from his seat and made his escape.Inside the car the constables found sixty gallons of alcohol.There is an unfortunate disposition in a man to attend much more to the faults of his companions which offend him, than to their perfections which please him.EIGHT PAGES District Curlers Make Favourable Showing In Edinburgh Trophy Play Goundrey\u2019s Rink Wins Crown Derby Plates For Be st Showing Of Six Huntingdon Entries The Edinburgh Trophy.emblem- | ate of the championship of the Granite Curling Association, will re- \u2018main in the showcase at the Mon- :(real Caledonin Curling Club for another year.The Caledonians suveess- fully defended the trophy from the challenge of ten other clubs in competition at six rinks on Friday and Saturday.Ottawa rinks came in for a big share of the glory and prizes for the out-of-town clubs.A Rideau Curling Club captured gold medals and silver plates for the highest score among outside clubs.If the Ottawans had not previously won the Pal Lid Trophy.a replica of the Edinburgh, it would have gained this prize ugaln, but as no team can win this twice the honor went to the Three Rivers Curling Club which was second.The Ottawa Curling Club won a set of granite stones.This district had no less than twenty-two rinks entered in the competition.The two rinks from Fertile Creek played closc games.J.T.Stewart defenting Dr.A.8.Lamb of Bte.Anne de Bellevue 13-10;

one distinctive lo the Province of Quebec.The majority of employees had voted in preference of the Boxing Day holiday.but to straighten matiers out 10 the satisfaction of evervone it might be well to allow all three holidays.There is much to be said in favor of the Roxing Day holiday.The days immediately before Christmas are always crowded.There is always a belated rush to buy Christmas gifts: the stores are crowded and by the end of the last day\u2014midnight or later-\u2014 both shoppers and clerks are played out.They are too tired to have much interest in the celebration of the day: and many of them return to work only half rested.Consequently.business the day after Christmas is practically dead\u2014a lucky thing for the worn- out clerks.Little or nothing would be lost by leaving the stores closed and allowing evervbody to recover from the Christmas rush.For centuries Boxing Day in Engiand has been one of the features of the holiday season.The name itself originated from the custom of presenting \u201cBoxes\u201d to servants and employees.It is really one of England's institutions.and the move towards its adoption in Canada seems 10 be gathering weight.There scems to be no reason why we could not stand both Boxing Dav and New Year's Day as genuine holidays.There is often as much need for recuperation on one day as the other.so let's have both.Christmas Trees From Canada HRISTMAS trees are in season again, and thous- C ands of them leave Canada every day for the United States to help decorate the homes of American families and to spread Christmas cheer in the hearts of thousands.Last year the United States imported 3.681.439 Christmas trees from Canada at a cost of $375,286.and carly reports of shipments of these trees from Ontario, Quebec and New Brunswick indicate the supply will be considerably larger this vear than ever before.It is also estimated that anywhere from 500.000 to 1,000,000 Canadian homes arc adorned during the Yuletide Season with trees from Canadian woodlands.In Eastern Canada the favorite trees for Christmas are young firs or spruce, about ten feet in height.In British Columbia the young Douglas fir is the most popular.Cedar.hemlock.juniper and pine of tender growth are also used when the more favored species arc not ready available.The spicy odor of the balsam fir, with its short, flat, lacquered leaves of dark green, which render it easy to decorate.make it particularly suitable for use as a Christinas tree.The origin for the use of trees for decorative purposes at Christmas time is lost in antiquity.The custom is believed to have been adopted from pagan ceremonies, but it is only in comparatively recent times that the Christmas tree has become popular in North America and the British Isles.Siuce the introduction of strings of coloured lights for illumination the use of trees for decorative purposes both inside the home and on the verandah or front lawn has become more popular.The New Wheat Board T WAS inevitable that the new Government would appoint a new Grain Board.They inherited a problem of great complexity and full of danger to national interests, and it is not surprising that they have decided that new and fresh minds dealing with it would give the best assurance of solution.The situation today.with a vast accumulation of surplus wheat, is the result, at least in large part.of wheat policies for which the late government was responsible.The Board which has now been retired was closely identified with these policies and was well disposed towards carrying them out in the spirit in which they were conceived and to the ends that they were expected to serve.Subject to these conditions.the late Board was vigorous and active.There is no occasion to question their desire to serve what they regarded as the best interests of the public.The governing principle of the policies that have been given so thorough a try-out has been to hold THE HUNTINGDON GLEANER

to husband or son.Parents Drive Up OPE for definite benefits from the Dominion-pro- vincial conference of last week rests largely in the semi-permanent committees which were set up to continued study of outstanding national problems.The conference ended on a note of confusion.While the federal government was largely successful in warding off any provincial raids on the treasury it was agreed that increased aid should be given to the provinces in meeting heavy relief expenses.Provincial premiers and their aides left.however.without knowing the extent of the aid.On constitutional matters the conference progressed about as far as could be expected.There was fair- Iv general agreement on the need for changes in the British North America Act but the committee was handicapped by lack of a ruling from the Supreme Court.The matters of large scale debt conversion and the increased federal aid to the provinces will be topics for a conference of provincial treasurers next month.Other committees which will meet again in January are mining.agriculture, and transport.Optimistic observers agree that these special committees will produce the real results of an otherwise quiet conference.Farmers received some encouragement when the committee recommended continuing the Dominion\u2019s ges.Behind this policy was the credit of the country.It resulted in the government being involved in wheat holdings to an amount of $200.000.000.with a carryover at the close of the last crop vear in excess of 200.000.000 bushels of wheat.When the breakdown became so apparent that it could not be explained away or ignored.the only solution that occurred to the late government and those with whom they took counsel was to have a compulsory monopoly under a Government-appointed Board.Hence the Grain Board Act in its original form as submitted to Parliament last June.As the result of clarifying discussions.including evidence submitted to a special Parliamentary committee, this policy was abandoned tor at any rate suspended) and an alternative adopted.the general purpose of which can be indicated by a couple of sub-sections to Section 8.in which the Grain Board was instructed: Subsection (Br: To market from time to time all wheat or contracts for the purchase or delivery of wheat which the board may require.for such price as it may consider reasonable.with the object of promoting the sale and use of Canadian wheat in world markets.Subsection (J): To offer continuously wheat collar with it.Albert Megginson, Wil- ymington.Del.decided to return | home, Standing beside a lonely Ohio road, he pointed his thumb home- | ward as car after car sped by without stopping.Finally a man and woman came driving along.slowed tdown, and Megginson was invited in- te the car.To his amazement the occupants were Megginson's parents, \u2018just returning from a vacation in Missouri.Pig Eats $3,000 ; At Sioux City.S.D.a hospital at- \u2018ltendant carelessly threw away a vial \u2018containing 583.000 worth of radium | Which got into the garbage can.By the time the loss was discovered the (garbage had been fed to some hogs.[Two University of Minnesota scien- Lists rigged up a dector made of gold leaf and with it located the pig that had swallowed the radium.For the time being that pig was the most :valuable porker in the world.Judge Fines Self The clerk of the New York traffic ccurt called \u201cAlvah W.Burlingame.\u201d [following revelations that war \u201csou- \u2018a china ash tra \u2018greater slice of American wealth than venirs.\u201d made in Germany.are being offered to tourists visiting Verdun.One cf the souvenirs complained of is a female figure, on which an illustra- | tion of the ossuary at Douaumont | has been printed.The Hungarian firm which imported the ash trays to | Paris has pleaded possibly the illu-!

that is to say, where the board stands by, is ready to purchase from the producer at a minimum price.but at the same time permits the ebb and flow of commercial transactions so long as the producer is assured that he has that back log at all times if he wants to approach the board as a purchasing-agency dealing with the producer, and not attempting to assist the producer by supporting the structure of world prices.Because after all it is a pretty big job even with Canada\u2019s proportion of the supply of wheat in world markets for Canada to attempt to regulate the whole structure of world prices.So that is the first, and I think, perhaps the greatest improvement that has been made by the committee of the whole.No longer will we have to take a loss in its operations; that 1s to say, in selling its wheat.That is another matter.But so far as the producer is concerned the board deals directly with him.The change in the Board means, we take it, that it is the judgment of the Government that this policy, upon the successful operation of which nothing less than the recovery of Canada depends, will be more vigorously prosecuted by a new Board which accepts it whole-heartedly than by a Board about which there was a presumption, based upon reasons which can be stated if necessary, that its members were predisposed towards policies of sale and control reflecting the views of those who were responsible for the Grain Board measure in its original form.The new Board, in the range of its personnel and the interests with which they have been identified, is fully representative, as the late Board was not, of the grain-growing and grain-marketing interests, and there will be no suggestion that with respect to capacity and experience its members suffer by comparison.This Board takes office to sell wheat, not by a fire-sale, but steadily in world markets at competitive rates, the producers being protected by a minimum price.The West has needed such a policy for the past three years at least; and we are somewhat inclined to think that there will be general popular approval now that it has been achieved and placed for operation in able and sympathetic hands.reminded himself it was a first offence, fined himself $1 and handed the money to the clerk.\u201cNext case.\u201d he ordered.Cheap at $75,000 \u201cRegular price not less than $350.- 001.owner is willing to sacrifice for $75000.\u201d So runs an advertisement under a box number in a Connecticut newspaper, and the article advertised is\u2014a violin.It is 300 years old.and was hand made by Jonas Mareli.The owner is offering it \u201catfa sacrifice because of need of money.\u201d Present her 40 St.Lawrence St.LABERG ~ Phone 236 \u2014 \u2014 VUOGECUTETEAOIGRIIGEYVTOUE | Make Mother Happy this Christmas !

Page Four Curious Christmas One of the biggest surprises ever sprung upon the guest ata Christmas party was probably that put over by a certain English millionaire who had given a sumptuous Yuletide feast.When crackers and dessert were on the table two liveried footmen sud- | denly appeared at one end of the great dining-hall, carrying between them a large silver dish.upon which reposed the biggest thing in Xmas ' crackers that anyone present had ever seen.writes a contributor in London Answers.| The men deposited their burden on | the floor in the middle of the room and then marched solemnly out; Scarcely had they disappeared before the centre of the cracker flew up, and out of the opening sprang the host's youngest daughter, disguised as a dainty little fairy.The child performed a spirited dance.then nipped back to her cracker.only to reappear almost at once with a number of costly pres- erts, which she handed to the delighted guests.i Largest Cracker Made Another Christmas cracker surprise was planned by a rich man in the north of England.In the big ballroom.an enormous erected on end, like a tower.It was many feet high, and is believed to have been the biggest ever construct ed.It was brilliantly decorated out- : side and hollow within.A ladder was! fixed inside, and this led up to a platform near the top.On the plat- form a little girl in fancy dress was after him.made a bee-line for, the nearest railroad station and ask- | | crouched.Then.at a given signal.she stood up and threw down a shower of presents to the excited guests below.!

The hint was promptly taken; off they went to the once-stern parent, with thoroughly seasonable results! A tug-o'-war cracker was probably one of the most expensive Christmas crackers ever made.It measured about six feet from end to end.A silk cord hung from the two openings, and one or more guests at either side of the table took hold of the cord and pulled.When the cracker had thus been pulled apart the two halves were found to contain a number of very expensive Christmas gifts for distribution amhong the lucky guests.Another curious cracker was that of a gold miner, who happened to be home in time for Christmas morning.He had a gold nugget placed inside a special cracker and gave it to Huntingdon.That was her first intimation of his OO to - URI OU EE LD LT tivity was hiv Their next fes suggestions where you can get a orders.Shirts: Made by B.V.D.Whi Gloves: $1.00 to $3.50.Pyjamas: The ideal present extra pair?$1.95 to $2.95.2 OOP Lounging Robes: Real smart to $12.95.Purse Muffs, $1.00 to $3.95.Mill\u2014specially priced Hoslery, by Holeproof, 50c to Phone 191, HOLEEAAANAALEALAALERAARELS Everything for a man for Christmas-giving\u2014Get your rush neatly boxed\u2014even ready for mailing.Gifts malled on phone i A Check List Mufflers and Scarves: He surely will like these, 50c to $2.95.Ties: Colorful and smart, 50c, $1.00.Hose: Smart and oh, 50 warm these cold days, 50c to $2.50.A Lady\u2019s Gift What would be more suitable than a Dress, priced $1.99 Gift Lingerie\u2014from Silk manufactured at local Windsor Silk PHIL.J.LEFEBVRE The Tailor and Outfitter, THE choice selection, and everything for You: te and colors, $1.50 and $1.95.What man doesn't need an at $2.95.$1.50.Huntingdon shilling for of Mr.and Mrs.Wm.Hanna.Mr.and Mrs.N.M.Brooks spent Thursday visiting Mr.and Mrs.T.| Feutherford.Ellenburg, N.Y.Christmas Day In Own Home By Ethel Cook Eliot \u201cI'm almost glad we're not going to our Grandmother's for Christmas this year.\u201d Mrs.Will confided to Mr.Will a week before that great day.\u201cDo you realize we've never had a Christmas here in our own home, just ourselves and our family?\u201d \u201cYes, I've been thinking of that,\u201d Mr.Will replied.\u201cLet's keep it just ourselves, and give the kiddies one truly home Christmas to remember.\u201d As usual, Mr.and Mrs, Will were in complete agreement in their ideas and emotions.Mrs.Will sighed cons tentment.Mr.Will sighed contentment, too; for after all, such harmony in this workaday world of wives and husbands is rare indeed.But as Christmas day grew nearer and nearer Mr.Will suddenly realized she was nursing a sick conscience.There was something she had not the heart to confide to Mr.Will.Now, Mr.Will had a sick conscience, too.There was something he had not the heart to confide to Mr.Will But fortunately everything was straightened out before Christmas, that day of peace, dawned.Billy, their oldest, didn't know what the word conscience meant.Of course he had heard mother and father whispering about how nice a strictly family Christmas would be.He had heard them, but perhaps he hadn't understood their sentiment.Anyway, at luncheon, two days before Christmas, he suddenly blurted, \u201cSay, Mom, I've asked Jim Larkin to our Christmas dinner and the tree.You know his folks are in Europe, and he's just staying on at the school.Thought he'd like it here better.More homelike.\u201d \u201cOh, bother, Billy,\u201d Lucy cried\u2014 thirteen year old Lady Lucy.\u201cI've asked Patty Brown.She hasn't any folks anywhere, even in Europe.Just that snobbish great-aunt who's giv- EAEEEEEEBRR A ERERE RRL R ARES 15000, EEE Last Minute.GIF T Suggestions and doesn't want Patty around.She ineeds a home Christmas more than your Jim.\u201d Father was eyeing mother anxiously.Her bright smile amazed .him.\u201cWell, I'm sure there's room for them both.IT am glad you have such kind hearts.children.\u201d But now Mr.WII spoke timidly.\u201cI'm sorry, mother.but I.too, have asked a guest.Couldn't help it somehow! That young Miller at the office.He's so cut up about his mother's death, and a boarding house is a dreary place to spend Christmas.\u201d Mr.Will's voice was timorous, almost pleading.| But Mrs.Will's bright smile had \u2018now turned to a calm, relieved one.\u201cOh, that\u2019s splendid, dear,\u201d she said.\u201cFor, do you know.I myself have invited that pretty little Gladys Hav- erill.She looked so woebegone when I met her at the grocer's Saturday and asked her whether she was go- (ing hotne for Christmas.She said a poor school teacher couldn't travel way across a continent even for a | Christmas at home.What could I do! {And do you know I've always thought Gladys and Ted Miller ought to meet.They're such nice young people\u2014and Gladys is so pretty!\u201d So that\u2019s what happened to the Wills\u2019 precious family Christmas.But not one of the Wills felt that he had been cheated of anything.On the contrary!

about the burning log on Christmas Eve to sing carols and tell Christmas legends.Often the children who live In the country assist at the dragging in of the huge log.An English child would not feel that it was Christmas if there were not a bit of mistletoe hanging in the hall, under which the unwary are kissed soundly.Little and big eat the rich and blazing plum pudding.and all join in the singing of Christmas carols and churchgoing.Conductor: \u201cI've been on this car for 21 years.\u201d Passenger: \u201cIs that 80?Where did you get on at?\u201d THE HUNTINGDON GLEANER Howick United

Post Office advises that all mail be sent early, particularly so in the case of parcels.It must be remembered that in the heavy mails at holiday time, normal service cannot be expected.Thus cards, letters and parcels, going more than a sev- enty-mile distance, should be sent immediately.This is also the time of year when practically every family expects something in every mail, and members of the family often forget to take their mail keys with them to the office.Huntingdon citizens are reminded that no money orders will be issued after six o'clock in the afternoon.The wickets will be closed all day Christmas and New Year's.A little co-operation on the part of everyone will make the rush days less abominable to the clerks everywhere, and to the housekeepers as well, Dependability

DON'T FORGET YOUR PETS i i ! ; I | Story telling snapshots of your pets b AMERA owners who have taken pictures of their pets always find, on looking back over their snapshot albums, that the pictures recall events of bygone years which played an important part in their happiness, and they are mighty glad to have them.So, here are à few ideas for taking such pictures.If your pet, for instance, has learned some tricks why not make a series of snaps\u2014a \u2018lay-out\u201d or \u201cstrip\u201d as a series of pictures is often referred to in the photographic or art departments of newspapers.Perhaps your dog has been taught to sit up, \u2018roll over\u201d or \u201cspeak\u201d before receiving his daily bread or a choice morsel of candy.Snaps of \u201cSnip\u201d doing these tricks and mounted in your album as a \u201cstrip\u201d across the page will add to the interest and variety of your collection.You can take such pictures with almost any camera.Of course, if \u201cSnip\u201d displays considerable speed when he \u201crolls over\u201d you will probably have to shoot outdoors at a shutter speed of about 1/100 second.Where you set your diaphragm opening at this shutter speed depends much on your lighting.The brighter the day the more you can \u201cstop down\u201d to get greater depth of focus, When in doubt use the larger diaphragm opening for it is always Obituary The late Mrs.J.Henderson The death occurred yesterday of Mary Gillespie, widow of Rev.James Henderson, D.D., who was twice pastor of St.James United Church, Montreal.Mrs.Henderson died .at her late residence, 851 Grosvenor avenue, Westmount.She was 95 years of age.The daughter of the late James Gillespie, she was born at Little River, near Quebec City, in 1840.She first married Peter LeRossignol, who died in 1874; in 1876 she married Dr.Henderson.Since then, as a pastor's wife, Mrs.Henderson lived in Cook- shire, Huntingdon, Prescott, Ont., Montreal, Toronto and Ottawa.Recent years she has spent in West- mount.Surviving are three daughters, Miss A.E.LeRossignol and Mrs.A.O.Dawson, of Westmount, and Mrs.J.Henderson Scott, of Guilford, England; two sons, Dean J.E.LeRos- signol of the University of Nebraska, and Dr.W.J.LeRossignol of Denver, Colorado; two sisters, Mis.C.B.Ramsay and Mrs.Robert Neil, of Quebec; and one brother, George AS.Gillespie of Ottawa.The funeral will be held at the residence tomorrow afternoon at 2 p.m.The annual meeting of the Presbyterian Ladies\u2019 Aid Society was held at the home of Mrs.H.A.Hampson on Thursday afternoen.The work on hand was quilting, several of the ladies returning at a later date to complete the work.The election of officers took place: Pres.Mrs.W.À.Jamieson; Vice-Pres.\u2026 Mrs.D.F.Grant; Treas.Mrs.George Elder; Sec'y, Mrs.L.D.Watson, The work committees were to remain as at present.The treasurer\u2019s report showed a balance of $270, so the usual amount was voted to

interesting story-telling picture of the two pals at play.Your five-year-old will probably not appreciate the value of such a picture now but in later years he will thank you for preserving for him those happy days of childhood.Undoubtedly your cat \u2014 alley or otherwise\u2014has his favorite lounging spot in the house, or favorite \u2018\u2019lookout\u201d such as that of Mr.J.Thomas Cat, pictured above.Have you ever thought of taking such a picture?Believe it or not, it won quite a substantial prize in a national snapshot contest a few years ago.And don't overlook the canary, the parrot, love birds, Jimmie's pet rabbits and the many other animals and birds of various and sometimes strange types and breeds adopted by those who favor the unusual.: It's perfectly all right to dress up the cat or dog in glasses, cap, pipe, or shove him unceremoniously into a boot or shoe, if the unfortunate animal is small enough to be shoved, but pictures of that type are not long lived as far as enduring interest is concerned.It's the snapshot that tells a story or has human interest appeal that really breathes lite into an album.70 JOHN VAN GUILDER.Robson Mrs.F.A.Sweet entertained the

\u201cThe Chinese Church in Action.\u201d It was decided to revert to the original plan of two meetings each month, and to alternate the educational and missionary talks, also refreshments and games.The following officers were re-elected: Pres.Clifford French; Sec.-Treas., David Watson; with Rev.Mr.Nimmo as Honorary Pres.; Carrie Macfarlane, convener of devotional and missionary; Jack

inches is considered practical for street shoes.Higher hecls may be worn for dress occasions, but they do not belong on the street, in school or in the office.High heels should never be worn continuously if a woman wishes to preserve a beautiful body posture.If a woman has heen wearing very high heels, she may have to make the transition to low heels by gradual stages until her muscles, particularly the Achilles tendon, have become accustomed to the change.The inside line of the shoe should be fairly straight.When the heel and side of a shoe are placed against a ruler or other

ofl.\u201d The reason is that I am well prepared, and the answer is farm gifts.Once upon a time farm gifts have been sniffed at.but not any mere.If care and thought are lavished upon them, they need never be.I begin my Christmas preparations it.the summer.My choicest jams, Jellies, conserves and preserves are poured into odd-shaped jars and rlasses.These are set away on a shelf espectally reserved for \u201cgift foods.\u201d Later these jars will be deck- rd with n \u201cnecktie\u201d of bright cellophane ribbon and a tag will carry this message: \u201cFor your Christmas Lreakfast.,\u201d Canned vegetables are next on the list.The more usual ones are welcome in both pint and quart sizes.Unusual vegetables such as Swiss chard, green lima beans, cgg plant, mushrooms, tomato juice, sweet potatoes, spinach and other canned foods should receive an enthusiastic reception.A Christmas seal atop the jar will add the holiday note.In Polished Jars The latch string is always out for such canned goods as pickles, fruits, grape juice.kraut, hominy, chow- chow, watermelon preserves, even vegetables soups.Be sure they are of good quality and flavor.and wash and polish each jar carefully.It is a matter of pride with me that any root vegetables 1 give be washed clean and looking at attractive as possible.Carrots, cabbage.parsnips, turnips, rutabagas, celery, pumpkins and squash all make de- liclous food gifts.To Lend Variety Among the sweetest of gifts is honey.In gallon, half-gallon.quart and pint lots this golden gift will grace any holiday box.Some homemakers also have sorghum, cider and vinegar which has been made at home.These can also be regarded as gift possibilities.Golden pats of butter in waxed paper, cottage cheese in waxed cartons, and eggs in dozen lots are among the last,veck preparations.Always welcome in homes where everything must be bought, they help to ease the extra burden of expense for worried housewives.Dissatisfaction With Our Lot Never fancy you could be something if only you had a different lot and sphere assigned to you.The very things that you most deprecate, as fatal limitations or obstructions are probably what you most want.What you call hin\u2019rances, obstacles, discouragements, are probably God's opportunities.\u2014Horace Bushnell.kidd kk ds \u201cOne Quality-Only the Best\u201d WELCOME NEWS Holidays mean

social evening.It is to be hoped a generous response will be accorded.Due to the fact that the club room will only seat about 60 people.it was decided that at a later date a similar evening should be held for the gentlemen in town, who have not ordinarily been identified as members of the Curling Club.The Curling Club executives are to be congratula- ited on the initiative for the 1935-38 season

sighed happily.let her head rest against his shoulder.feeling that she could trust him to see her through any danger that might arise.She found herself thinking that all of the troubles she had encountered had been benefits in disguise.When, she had thought that fate was being! most unkind.that the world was against her.she had.in reality.been laying the foundation for the happiest moments of her life.Had it not been for her connection with the Drimgold murder she would never have met Norman Happ.nor come to appreciate his wonderful character.Her meditations were interrupted by Norman's voice.saying in a hoarse whisper.\u201cLook.they're going.Let's pretend we didn't see them and see what Johnson has to say when he.comes back.\u201d They returned to their chairs and a moment later.when Johnson languidly entered the room and draped himself on the cot.Norman remarked casually.\u201cMake a sale?\u201d \u201cNo,\u201d Johnson drawled.\u201cthey were Not customers.They wanted to find out if anyone had been asking questions about a bottle of whisky that was sold.I guess it must have figured in a divorce case or something.Anyway, they wanted to find out about it.\u201d \u201cYou mean they were asking questions about the people who had purchased the whisky?\u201d Millicent asked quickly.\u201cNaw.they was asking about whether someone had been asking questions about it.\u201d Johnson replied.\u201cIt's too deep for me.\u201d \u201cI presume you told them that you weren't the regular proprietor and to come back?\u201d Norman ventured.her.drew BARBADOS EXTRA FANCY

of waiting on custom- crs who are just asking you a lot of fool questions like that, and no one ever remembers a person who buys a quart of whisky anyway.It ain't any use going to a lot of bother over something that means a net loss to the business.\u201d \u201cWell.that's pretty good logic,\u201d Norman agreed with a significant glance at Millicent.\u201cThat'll keep the proprietor from being bothered with them again.\u201d \u201cYeah,\u201d Johnson sald wearily.\u201cPeople don't realize that it takes a lot of energy for a man to get up and walk clear to the front of the store and then come back again when there ain't no profit in connection with a sale.It's just a dead loss 0! valuable time and effort\u2014Ileast- wise.\u201d he amended after a moment, \u201cit's a loss of effort.Time ain't so valuable.Business is pretty poor these days and there ain't much use figuring time as being an asset.In fact.nothing's an asset when a man gets to losing money in his business.Every day he keeps the place open makes the loss that much bigger.so it\u2019s kind of a job trying to figure just what time is worth.Maybe time ain't an asset after all\u2014just a liability.\u201d Norman laughed.Millicent smiled.\u201cI mean it.\u2019 Johnson said.\"I'm talking facts.The trouble with this ountry is there's too much competition.Now.I've got too many competitors in the stationery business.What the government should do is to set up a sort of code by which every man in the stationery business would be guaranteed a certain net income.regardless of how much stuff he sold.Then competition wouldn't be so keen and people wouldn't have tc cut prices in order to get business.That would mean there'd be more sales made.which would mean that the guaranty wouldn't cost the government anything.\u201d He nodded his head sagely.then yawned and said, \u2018Oh, well.I ain't going to bother my head trying to solve the country's economic problems unless I get paid for it, and it don't look like anyone's going to pay me.\u201d He stretched his arms above his head.yawned a couple of times, said drowsily.\u201cI can hear if anyone comes in and you folks won't mind if I

for fear Johnson had not told them the truth about his conversation with Cynthia Happ and Bob Caise.His transition from drawling conversation to gentle snores seemed too rap- ic to be genuine and

driver doesn't argue with instructions that are backed up with $2 in good hard money.\u201d He hesitated a moment, then pulled down the flag in the meter and said, \"I'm going to give your boy while before I got another fare anyway, so I'm not going to charge him utes.After that I have to make a charge.\u201d \u201cHe won't be over ten minutes,\u201d Millicent asserted.\u201cIt shouldn't take him much over five.\u201d She glanced at her iand visioned Norman's progress ker mind.He should now be leaving the elevator at the third floor.He would walk down the corridor, knock on the door of Apartment 309.Then what wrist watch in It makes, would happen?Would the woman come to the door?Would she talk (with him?Would she resent his | questions?Would he be able to get any information from her?Would he enter the apartment and, if so, would he take precautions to make certain there were no other persons in the apartment?The cab driver settled down behind the wheel, his manner that of one | who must, of necessity, spend a great deal of his time waiting.A matter of ten minutes meant virtually nothing to him.But it seemed to Millicent that the minutes were an interminable length of time.She watched the minute hand of her wrist slowly around the dial.She had schooled herself to believe that Norman would return within ten minutes, and so it gave her a distinct shock when the ten minutes had passed and Norman had not return- ea When 15 minutes elapsed Millicent felt something akin to panic.The cab river turned to her, grinned in a friendy manner and said, guess your friend will be out pretty quick, eh?\u201d \u201cYes,\u201d she said.\u201cThink he's going to be in a hur- 9» \u201cHe may be.\u201d \u201cWell, I\u2019 have the motor running and be ready to go.\u2019 the driver told her.\u201cI'll have to start my meter going on waiting time though.\u201d He started the motor and the meter, and Millicent, feeling as though she has lost her last friend, fought against the panic which surged up within her.Previously she had visioned Norman going down the corri- dor\u2014bir, dependable, aggressive and formidable.She had pictured him knocking at the door of the apartment, dominating the situation.Now her mind tortured her with mental visions of Norman in danger.being invited into the apartment by some woman whose smiling eyes masked a sinister purpose.She pictured men concealed behind chairs and doors.weapons clasped in their hands.She could almost hear the sounds of thwudding blows, of Norman's futile struggles, of .She resolutely determined to ban- ich such things from her mind.After all.worrying would not help any.either of those birds tries to get jrough with me I wouldn't want any- {thing better than to give them a, \u2018punch in the

worry about that.What's bothering me is the idea of leaving you here alone.\u201d The cab driver turned and regard- tec them curiously, Norman flashed ther a warning glance, turned abruptly from the cab and walked to the apartment house entrance.She watched him with eyes that were filled with anxiety, saw him press several of the buttons opposite different names, and noted with some measure of relief that he had not given Phyllis Faulconer warning of his visit by ringing her bell.That would give him the advantage of taking her by surprise, and Millicent was grateful that he had thought to teke this precaution.She saw him press against the door with his right hand, heard a faint buzz and saw the door open.He turned to give her a reassuring wave ot his hand and then entered the apartment house.The cab slid smoothly into motion, ran around the corner and parked at the curb.\u201cWell, I; waiting time if he isn't over 10 min- ; and Norman might have been placed in such a position that he needed time to force the truth from this woman's lips.\u201cSuppose we should run back to the apartment house, Miss?\u201d the cab driver inquired.\u201cI don\u2019t like to run up a lot of waiting

cpposite the name of one of the tenants.a name which she had selected at random.Nothing happened.Impatiently she jabbed the button below that and, after a moment, the speaking tube at her ear gave a shrill whistle and a voice said, \u201cWho is it?\u201d Miilicent had thought of no answer.She had not anticipated such a situation., \u201cMillicent Jones.\u201d she said.\u201cMillicent Jones?\" the

together we found the name of the nursery or home or whatever you call, near here and we went over there.I had the matron give me half a dozen children.and Here they are.\u201d She pointed to group in front of her, who were busy taking in their surroundings.\u201cChildren, this is my father and this is mv mother.Now, dad, here is Tony, Rose, Frederick.Charles, Anna and Marie,\u201d as she gathered the children to her.\u201cNow, children, we are going in and have dinner.Let's see.Hubert, you take Frederick and Charles, Dad take Tony; Mother, you take Anna, and T will have Rose and Marie.\u201d The children, ranging from six to eight, were rather shy until they set eyes on all the goodies on the table; then they were all excitement.Thelma winked at Hubert, and then looked at her dad.He was busy keeping meat enough cut up for Tony, supplying his numerous other demands.and keeping up with his many questions.The children were fairly stuffed when they climbed down from the table.\u201cWe are going to play some games F.DUPUIS Fancy Work and Coupons, Articles embroidered.Bouchette Street, Huntingdon, Que.Lost A pig between our farm and Trout River.Antoine Latreille.Tel.649 Notice MR.W.C.COLLINGS and MR.A.C.COLLINS Undertakers and Embalmers Hemmingford, Que.NOTICE Starting immediately I am prepared to do circular sawing and picket sharpening.ELMER HARRIGAN Tel.612-3 Huntingdon NOTICE Sealed tenders will be received up until Friday, December 27th, for the filling of both ice houses of the Hun- tingdon County Farmers\u2019 Co-opera- tive Society.Huntingdon, Que.(Signed) RUTH WARDEN.Secrétary Federal Election Regulations Electoral Division of Chateauguay- Huntingdon assented Mrs.Fre- SUMMARY ELECTION EXPENSES OF DR.J.C.MOORE Rent of Halls .$ 103.00 Sound equipment and electric work .115.45 Rentals of radios .20.00 Automobile hire .84.50 Electric light ., 1.29 Phone calls .27,14 Cloth signs, equipment .22.45 Committee rooms .144.50 Caretaking .62.00 Advertising and printing .261.09 $841.42 Dated at Sainte-Martine this sev- entcenth day of December, one thousand nine hundred and thirty-five.A.A.LUNAN, Official Agent By order: LOUIS MAHEU, Returning-Officer.PROVINCE OF QUEBEC Municipality of the County of Huntingdon Board of Delegates of the Counties of Huntingdon and Chateauguay To the ratepayers of both Counties interested in the Brethour Creek and Branches.PUBLIC NOTICE Is hereby given you by the undersigned James E.Barrett, Secretary- Treasurer of the Municipality of the County of Huntingdon.That the Collection Roll covering the costs of work done on the said watercourse has been homologated, at a special meeting of the Board of Delegates of the Counties of Hun- tingdon and Chateauguay, held on Monday, the 8th day of December All costs in connection therewith ordered paid by the interested parties, according to the number of acres drained.All parties interested are requested to come and settle within 20 days from the date of the homologation.Given at Huntingdon, this 9th day of December, 1935, JAMES E.BARRETT, -Treasurer M.C.CH.7 \u2014\u2014 s Confidence!

in our office by Friday, or at the latest Saturday night of each week.Should anything of importance occur phone the office early Monday forenoon to give the remainder of the district notes.Dinners On Christmas Day Only the main dishes or a typical English Christmas dinner will be described here.These dishes would be: Roast Turkey Veal and Sausage Forcemeat, Bread Sauce or Roast Goose Onion Forcemeat, Apple Sauce Boiled Celery with White Sauce Mashed Potatoes, Brown Gravy Christmas Pudding with Custard Sauce, Individual Mince Pies Now for the preparation of the birds.Having been drawn and thoroughly cleansed, one proceeds with the stuffing.If a turkey is chosen, see that the skin of the neck is left about three inches long, removing the neck itself as near the body as possible.Cut the neck skin at the back straight down till it reaches the body.Now pack as full as possible with well-seasoned pork sausage meat (a large bird may take two pounds).Press into a well-rounded plump shape and make the following forcemeat for the body stuffing.The best quality beef suet is always used and makes a much lighter, drier forcemeat than butter or rendered fats.Veal Forcemeat 2 cups fine breadcrumbs, 1 cup beef suet, very finely chopped, 1 tablespoon finely chopped parsley, 1: teaspoon powdered thyme, 1-3 teaspoon ground nutmeg.1-3 teaspoon pepper, 4 teaspoon salt, 1: teaspoon grated lemond peel (optional).Milk to mix lightly and fairly stiff, as the cooked forcemeat should be fairly dry.Bread Sauce 1's cups milk, 1 rather small onion stuck with cloves, 1 dessertspoon butter (added last), !'i teaspoon each salt and pepper, about 1': cups breadcrumbs.Some bread absorbs more liquid than others, so it is difficult to give exact quantity\u2014but when the sauce is ready to serve it should be of a nice medium consistency.neither stiff nor sloppy.A goose is not stuffed at the neck\u2014 but the body should be filled with the following forcemeat.Onion Forcemeat 21: cups breadcrumbs, 1 cup suet, 4 onions, 1 tablespoon powdered sage, The same amount of powdered parsley can be substituted if preferred.Salt and pepper to taste (about 1-3 teaspoon of each is plenty for most tastes).Boil the peeled onions for about five minutes.Then chop very finely and add to the other ingredients.Just moisten with milk and use.Apple Sauce Use apples that \u2018pulp\u201d nicely.About 2 pounds will make a generous supply.Peel, core and slice.Place in a pan with just enough water to prevent burning.When well cooked, mash and add sugar to taste.The ideal apple sauce to be served with roast goose should be slightly tart in order to counteract the richness of the bird.The gravy should, of course, be made in the pan in which the bird was cooked, using the water in which the neck and gizzard, with an onion, have been boiled.Christmas Pudding Take % pound each of brown sugar, raisins, finely-chopped suet, sultanas and currants, 4 ounces each of flour, breadcrumbs and mixed peel; 2 ounces chopped blanched almonds.1-3 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon mixed spices, the grated rind of 1 lemon.4 eggs and about 1 cup milk.A little molasses and soda, together with long boiling will darken the pudding.but, though the appearance is richer, it is not essential.Custard Sauce 2 cups milk, 2 eggs.1-3 cup sugar, %4 teaspoon salt, vanilla to taste.Heat the milk, add the sugar.Take from heat and heat eggs and gradually add milk.Pour all back and stir over hot water till the mixture thickens, taking great care that it does not curdle, Add vanilla and serve.Mincemeat 1 pound apples, % pound raisins, £ pound currants, 4 pound sugar, % pound suet (very finely chopped), 2 ounces each mixed peel and almonds, 1 teaspoonful mixed spices, juice and grated rind of 1 lemon.Make your favorite rich pastry re- = New Year\u201ds Eve AT THE Huntingdon Chateau \u2014The Editor cipe and with a scalloped cookie cutter, cut paste and place in patty pans.Place a teaspoonful of the well-mixed mincemeat on each and cover with another round of paste.Moisten edges to seal\u2014prick a hole in the centre with skewer.and bake in a hot oven.Dredge with fruit sugar before serving.One secret remains to be told.If the family is small or economy an object, then a chicken can be substituted for the turkey and prepared in exactly the same way.Only size will betray one.And the goose can wait to wander off in the spring for a nest, while her place is satisfactorily filled by a duck.To Clean A Wool Fleece Before wool is fit for domestic use, it must be cleaned in order to remove vegetable material, particles of soil and the yolk.The yolk is a complex oily substance, part of which is suluble and part insoluble in water.The insoluble component forms an emulsion with water especially if soap and a weak alkali is present.This fact renders its removal fairly simple.Take the fleece to be cleaned and remove all heavily stained locks and | as much of the larger pieces of chaff and straw as possible.Make up the scouring mixture as follows: to 10 gallons of water at 120 to 130 degrees Fahrenheit, add one-half pound of «al soda and one pound of wool soap or any good variety free from excess alkali.Test the strength of the solution by washing a small sample of the wool in it.If the tips of the fibres turn brown, add more water.This quantity of scouring liquid should be sufficient for one fleece.Pour two or three gallons of the lig- uid into a container and allow the fleece or part of the fleece to soak in it for three to five minutes, stirring gently with a stick.Do not rub or twist the wool as this will cause matting and felting.Remove the wool from the wash, allow to drain for a time, then repeat the process with new washes until the wool is clean.Then rinse in lukewarm soft water and allow to drain.Spread in a thin layer about one inch deep to dry.Sun drying is most satisfactory but in the winter time, a warm room makes a good drying chamber.Allow two or three days to elapse.Drying should then be complete and the wool is ready for carding.Two hand cards are necessary for this purpose.Tease out the wool as much as possible by hand.then place a small piece of the wool on one card held in the left hand and draw the other card across it until the ibres are lying parallel and a web of wool of even thickness is produced.The thin layers of carded wool produced in this manner are suitable for insertion in quilts, etc., or spinning.New Fillings For Sandwich No lunch would be complete without sandwiches, but how easily they can become a monotonous round of bread and butter.with something between.Try cutting them in long \u201cfingers\u201d for a change, or make a roll of them.To do this, slice white Lread lengthwise, wrap in a damped- ed cloth until the slice will roll without breaking, spread with any spread desired and roll like a jelly roll.Let stand in dampened cloth over night and cut in slices.If these show a tendency to unroll, secure with a toothpick.Ribbon sandwiches are made by using alternate slices of white and whole wheat bread.It is usual to use only three slices, but more can be used if desired.Each layer may be spread with a different spread, provided, of course, they go well together.Cut into \u201cfinger\u201d widths.Another favorite is \"\u201cBlack-eyed Susans.\u201d These are also made with both whole wheat and white bread.The slices are cut with a round cutter.and the white bread cut out in the centre like a doughnut.Spread cheese that has been run through a food chopper and moisten with mayonnaise.on the whole wheat slices; cover with the white and fill the hole with chopped raisins and nuts, well pressed down.Bread for sandwiches should always be cut thin and care should be taken not to leave any dry edges in spreading.The sandwiches should be wrapped carefully in waxed paper to prevent drying out.Rey) This year will be the best ever JOHN OTIS and his

1935 Air Spoils Fruit Flavor The discovery by chemists at an experiment station that small amounts of alr entrapped in bottled fruit juices may exert profound changes in their flavor, aroma, and appearance has led to the development of methods of handling these juices that result in greatly improved products.It has been found particularly important in bottling juices to fill the bottles as completely as possible, reports the station chemist.If air is left in the headspace of bottles of either pasteurized or Seitz-filtered cider, for example, the juice slowly darkens in color unless the cider is held in cold storage.If bottles of grape juice are not filled completely or bottle under vacuum, the juice quickly becomes cloudy, loses its rich purple color, and slowly deposits a dirty brown sediment.This inclusion of air in the bottle changes the flavors of the fruit juices as they become oxidized.Apple juice loses its delightful aroma and soon tastes like apple sauce prepared from dried apples.Cherry juice develops a flavor resembling that of the pits and grape juice develops an astringent, unpleasant flavor.CHRISTMAS DINNER Served at BUNGALOW INN HUNTINGDON SUNDAY, Dec.22nd
