g WE DELIVER 3 .quummommwwomb*°: Canada’s newest and lightest weapon is shown, at right, in the hands of a Canadian soldier. The ISten sub-machine canbine, an all-metal gun. used‘ in a similar manner to the American Thompson sulb- .machine gun, weighs only seven pounds and' is designed specially for parachute troops. Small Arms Limited, a Crown company, is now tooling up for the production of this “tummy gun” and it is ex- pectetl that by mid-summer monthly output will reach the four figure mark. The same company turns out the Lee-Enfieldr rifle and' 'ba‘jonet held at the attack position by soldier at left. The bay- onet is the new type adopted by the Canadian Army. Much shorter and» slimmer than the 1914 ver- sion it is easier to handle and every bit as efficient. It is triangular in shape. Specials for Week-End at KERR Bros.

January 4th after an illness of some weeks. The fact that John Gould. 74, Off Schomberg, died as a result of an accident on Mr. Atkinson’s farm recently â€"- the shock was very hard; on Mr. Atkinson’s none too good. health.

He was a member of St. Andrew’s Presby- terian Church, Strange. Surviving are his wife, Katharine Sutherland; two daughters, Gertrude at home and Mrs. Ella Stewart of NOIbleton; andi one grandson.

Mr. Jenn- ings, ill only a matter of hours, passed‘ away at one o’clock a.m.‘ on New Year‘s morning at the age of 73.

Lunch was served to all. i January 13th Now the Wartime Prices andl Trad-e Board has ruled that if any charge account is more than ten days in arrears ntrfurther merchandi- ise may be charged} to the account until the arrears are settled. The credit manager is given a means of graceful exit from his predicament. “We’re so sorry to close your ac- count, Mrs. U‘ppington,” he will say. “Of course your credit is absolutely good, 'but Ottawa says we mus'tnf't let you charge any more purchases, so there is nothing we can do about it... Of course, I agree that it’s utterly preposterous. . .May I suggest that you write about it to your Member of Parliament?” â€" Printed Word. Certain types of charge account have for many years been a head- ache to credit managers. They are the accounts of families who are so prominent in their communities that the stores hesitate to sue them or even to press them for payment, be- cause of the loss of goodwill that would“ follow any energetic attempt at collection. For the same reason: the stores are afraid to cut off credit privileges. The accounts are allow- ed to increase while the care-free dlefbtors flourish like the green bay- tree. While no one’s ears have as yet been deafened by the chorusing of merchants in praise of the Wartime Prices and“ Trade Board, one provi- sion of the newly-announced regulaâ€" tions may appeal: to the Board’s most vehement critics. That is 'the sharp restriction imposed on retail credit. “Well,” said the Irishman, “gulls or rboys, they’re a. fine flock of pigeons.” An‘ Irishman said. “Nice flock of pigeons.” A tuur'ist insisted]: “Those are gulls.” Some gulls were following a ferry Iboat.
