Camp- bell, Esq., Commissioner of High- ways for this Province was in the village a few days ago and pro- nounced our sidewalks the best of“ any village he had yet visited. Of course he didn't go over all of them. There was plenty of stock at the auction sale at the Palmer House on Wednesday, but the buyers were scarce, no doubt owing to the busy‘ time for farmers. Mr. H. F. Hop-i per and Mr. Brillinger sold about‘ 20 head of cattle. and‘ Mr. W. Mager disposed of a large number of plow points. Five thousand dollars was the highest bid on the Storey farm.

BOOKS AND LEARNING The Grocer Could Not Put Old Peas On to Mrs. Newlymade. “Hints on Going to Market," mur- mured Mrs. Neiwlymade to herself. running a practised finger down the index in the back of the “Young Housekeeper's Friend and Guide". “Here it is, on page sixty-oncrr-â€"â€" h‘m yes. ‘Green Peas'," she read. “ ‘when fresh and young, have bright green pods. Never buy those that have become yellow; they have pass- edl their prime’.†With a confident step Mrs. Newly- made entered the corner grocery and walked up to the vegetable counter. She settled her glasses more firmly upon her nose, and scanned with a critical eye the stock that was dis- played. She frowned a little when she saw that there were no peas with fresh-looking pods. Something you’d‘ like this mornâ€" ing, madam?" said the grocer, briskly, stepping up and rubbing his hands, smilingly. , “I warted to get some green peas," replied Mrs. Newlymade, “but I don't want these; they're not fit to eat when they're as yellow as that. That’s a sure sign they're old. These are so old they’re almost pure white. - I shouldn’t think you'd: ever get anybody to buy such poor-looking things.†.Mrs. N-ewlymade looked very se-; verer at the grocer, who grew very red, turned away, and coughed with, embarrassment. “I should think he would be a- shamed,†thought Mrs. Newlymade, “but he needn’t thinlk I don’t know what‘s what. He might just as well understand he can’t work off any old stale stock on me, if I am new i at housekeeping!†The grocer walked down to the end of the counter and laid his hand on a basket. “Here‘s some green peas over here, ma’am,†he said, huskily, wiping his eyes after his coughing spell. “Them things you‘re lookin’ at there are wax beans!†A Scotchman was ri‘m over by a beer wagon and for the first time workmen in the employ 0f the in his life the drinks were on him.

Kell of Richvale has returned from his trip to England and is leaving shortly to take up his new work in Northern Manitoba. His many friends here greatly re- gret his departure from our field.

Prime Minister Mackenzie King described it as “fresh call to arms throughout the British Commonwealth". This was not a “time for less effort but for more effort." At a Simcoe County weed meet- ing held at Barrie last week it was urng that due to the present labor shortage. farmers be paid a reason- able allowance by the County for cutting weeds in front of their own . property. The suggestion that women tint their legs rather than wear silken hosiery has. happily, gained few ,converts in Canada. Mere miles are perpetually amazed at the resistance of the fair sex to winter‘s blasts with only the protection of a sheer pair of stockings but would be even more amazed if women were to rely only on pure color. Many of our citizens, who find cutting lawns a tedious ordeal, will I envy our townsman. Mr. C. R. Tobey lwho possesses a trained goat, which is a real labor saver. In the sumâ€" mer time you will see the goat lhitched to a lawn mower, and! guidl- ed by its owner, cutting the spa- cious lawns around the residence. and in the winter, it is hitched to a snowplow and makes a fine job of the paths. In addition, it is trained to draw a sleigh, and many .children enjoy a sleigh ride behind the novel anima‘liLTai'a News. .
