Roadis through-out the district were badly ‘blocked burt were soon- opened. Don’t talk sob-stuff about symâ€" pathy- for war eftflort and at the same time recfuse to make any sacrifice for war work. To :refonm a man, you must begin at his grandmotherfiVictor Hugo. February is pledge month for war sgarvinvg-s. Back up your talik With a little sacrifice for the war effort. Don’t put things; off â€"- put them over. You won’t have to worry afbout bombs crashing into your home, if your cover your roof with a thin layer of War Savings Certificates. They make excellent protection. A young lady asll-red on a quiz prxoâ€" gram: alhout Lin‘dlb-eirg-h. She replied “Lindbergh is a rank smelling Ger- man Chaslse”. Shve didm’t get the d‘C'lllaT but we claim she was entitledl to a dodble award.

At any rate, immediately after the town news~ papers announced that the city health department was about to launch an- eradication program (to exterminate rats), five persons were [bitten by the rodents!

For the past 110 days in a row, the maximum temperatuure there has been over 1-00 degrees of heat. Even the town swimming pool has long since dried) up. A nurfie in a Maryland hospital coul‘d’n’t Ico‘nvvinne her colleagues of the truth of her claim that a young- Astelr had swallowed a toy‘ airplane. ‘Becomin‘g annoyed, the nurse thought she’d! show them, and‘ demonstrated with a teaspoon â€"â€" and accidVemtally swallowed! it. Now bo¢h youngster and nurse are under the same doc- fiof's care. The long arm of coincidence stretched out in a number of queer cases recently. In Salt Lake City, "Utah, Mrs. F. W. Clements has four sonsâ€"and each of them has been (badly hither): by a. different dlog dum- img the past month. Ohio comes in- to the news with five brothers all becoming fatherrs within a few months. California, not to the outâ€" done, reveals the story of Mrs. ‘Thurlow Partuee and} her four sistens â€"each of them became a. mother otf a &aughter within thrree month-s... Families sticking tog-ether. The first man to plougih a fur- row on what is now Th‘orncliffe Race Track o’bserved his 90th birthday Saturday, Feb. lst. He is Peter Aitlchisonv, pioneer lumlberjack and farmer, who five years ago retired to live at Pine Grove, a mile north of Woodlbridlge His 8 children and 19 grandchildren gathered during the weekâ€"end to quietly celebrate his birthday. Mr. Aitchison was born at Precious Corners, near Cobourg, and his early life was spent in such big logging centres as Muskoka, Gore’s Landing and Rice Lake. Lat- er he fanmed at Grahamsn/ille, Edge- ley and near Woodlbridlge. Last De- cemiber 9th Mr. and Mrs. Aitchison celebrated their 55th wedding anni- versary. Mr. Aitchison still en‘jOys good health and) frequently enjoys a walk to Woodlbridlge. You can heLp win the war by buy- ing war savings stamps. The following officers were elexct- ed (by the Board of Education on Monday: Chairman, J. N. Boyle; Sec-Treasq J. A. E. Srwitzver; Com- mittee, F. McConaghy, J. H. Sand- erson, George McDonald. Mr. Isaac Crosby was elected1 a member of the Pulbl‘ic Lilbrary Board. The “Witdh'” Carnival in the rink last evening under the auspices of the Fire Brigade was a' unique alfâ€" fair. Every arrangement previously made was carried out to the letter, the only disappointment 'being in the small attendance. This was not sur- prising however, as the weather was frightfully cold‘, and the roads in many places were almost impair:- a‘blre. 'Ilhe rink ~was appropriately decorated for the occasion with ev- ergreens, black cats, owls, dragon's, etlc., and everything had a weird ap- pearance. In the centre of the rink was the witch cave. In. the centre of the cave was erected a Large cal- dVron, hung ona tripod, under which was a flaming firevplacre. Here the witch broth: was made, and this pr0vâ€" ed" a. refreshing drink, flavored“ as it was with ,--n-a:kes and' toads. Around the fireplace the witches and their escorts danced, singing in their sim- uous course the couplet: Dowble, doulble, toil and trouble, Fire burn and) caldiron Lbu‘bible. The :chool attendance at Velllore the past few days is smaller on ac- count of the_qolti‘ weather and snow d=ri-fts. It rbe a good idea for the teacher, Mr. Percy Keffer, to funnish‘ himself with a pair of snow- shoes. From our Issue of Feb. 14th, 19-01 The many friends (â€"2 Mr. and Mrs. Amos Wright sincerely sympathize with them in the loss of their little girl Alene at the age of 5 years.
