King was formerly empioyed at Stone’s and his reputation ‘as a. .good Ibaker is not to be disputed. Unfortunater Schom-berg W. I. discussed econ- omy of sugar at the regular Feb- ruary meeting. Housewives are sin- cere in their efforts generally, to conserve sugar, members felt, and while the odd housekeeper has a tendency to be unfair the great ma- jority are anxious to lend attention and careful supervision to the use of sugar. Hints. and recipes were offered which redUCe the quantity of sugar listed in average recipes for household use. On Friday, February 13, a group of eight ladies entertained at a pro- gressive euchre in McDonald & Wells Hall. Total proceeds. of 25c. per guest went to Overseas Box Fund of Women’s Institute, King.

The president of the King- Town- ship Branch has often told us that our Red Cross dollar goes further in providing- comforts for the Bomlb Victims of Britain than [by any other means. When we consider the value of the finished quilt we are of the opinion there is mum truth in this statement. is about $1.00 per quilt. This low cost is possible because the material is purchased in quantity through the Ontario Headquarters of the Society at Toronto. Last week the Kettleby Unit of the Township Red Cross Branch de- livered a large consignment of fin- ished supplies to the local Branch Headquarters at Schomlberg. This consisted of 162 )quilts, 4 women’s blouses, 1 khaki sweater, 1 pr. sea- men’s socks, 2 khaki scarves, 9 prs: socks, 3 prs. mitts, 1 pr. gloves, 2 wash cloths.

ErCHMOND HILL, ONTAmo THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 19th, 1942. “The goods that are well known, that is to say, consistently adver- tised during- these trying years, will crowd the forgotten merchandise off the shelves. If goods can’t be bought; now, that is all the more reason for keeping their name remembered. You don’t realize why you buy many things. Who taught your wife to use a vacuum cleaner? Why do you use fountain pens, tinned soup, vitaâ€" min pills, refrigerators, automobiles, electric ranges? Believe it or not, the advertisements taught you to do these things. “I can recall when we used few or none of these things, and we didn’t want them. “Now we may have to do with- out some of these comforts again. It won’t hurt us, who are still so close to pioneer stock, to face life in a more rugged way for a while. But to lose the desire for better living would *be a stupid blunderinrg setAbuaok to our generation." “Any business that has the fore- sight to keep its name ibefore the public will probably do well,” he said. “Any firm that is over-confi- dent that the public will remember it, and fails to advertise may easily fail.” “You don’t think,” asked the in- terviewer, “that the public remem- bers very long.” “Young man,” said Mr. Smith, with his characteristic twinkle, “when you put your finger in the sea, and pull it out again, did you ever o‘bserve the size of the hole it leaves? R. C. Smith, a white-haired gen- tleman who wears a morning coat and a Ibroadâ€"‘brimmed hat and is dean of Canada’s advertising men, recently celebrated another [birth- day. His age he kept a secret, as he always has, «but he mark-ed the oc- casion by expressing the conviction that after the war there’s going to be a terrific scramble to get goods which can’t be obtained now.

Firms Failing To Do So “May Easily Fail,” R C. Smith Says Advertise The Name ToSucceed, ls Advice The recent marriage of Jean Mc- Clure of Toronto and Elwood Patton, at Toronto was an event of much interest in this district. The bride was tendered showers on five diff- erent occasions before her marriage. One of these was given by Miss Tilda Patton at King.

York county reforestation com- mittee reported to county council that 20,000,000 trees are available for 1942 spring planting in York county. The problem of securing labor for planting will be partially solved by delivering bundles of trees to rural school children with the purpose of teaching them the value of conser- vation, the committee reported. “It was conscription that caused it,” said a mother the other day speaking about her boy ‘back in 1917. “My son was wounded back in No- vember of that year. You see he went up into the woods to avoid con- scription, and a hunter mistook him for a deer.” Farmers who employed pupil help last year will ‘be glad to learn that the Department of Education has re- vised its' regulations so that this class of employee must remain at least 13 weeks and even then can- not leave without consent of the em- ployer if their services are still needed. We have heard a good‘ many rea- sons why this Daylight Saving idea won’t work, but perhaps the best, and not too illogical at that, was that the new hours would- make one Durham citizen miss the Jack Benny program when his wife takes him by the ear and marches him off to church Sunday evening, and the preacher is so long getting through with his “thirdly” and “finally” that he misses Charlie McCarthy, too. This war is getting more ‘turrilble" every dayâ€"Durham Chronicle. Violations of the sugar rationing law are punishable by court action, according to officials of the Warâ€" time Prices and Trade Board. The rationing of sugar has 1been adopted‘ not 'because there is any scarcity of sugar in Canada, (but, as a safeguard against any scarcity in future. There is, therefore, no reason why hoard- ing of this commodity should be practisedâ€"Stirling News-Angus. This is an old one. But perhaps you may be interested in the solu~ tion. A sheik had three sons. In his will he left one half of his camels to the eldest, one third to the second and one ninth to the third. At his death he had only 17 camels.
