Cunningham, Richmond Hill’s Salvage Committee Chairman. He’s been doing a fine job in the salvage business, and we nominate him as one of the district’s» most enthusiastic and untiring war workers. Whenever you see “E. D.” with the pheasant feather in his hat, he’s on duty. And if you don’t think there’s a lot of hard labor in the salvage work, follow the man with the feather in his hat for a week. There will be no work done on King township roads for the next three weeks, council has decided. The five men employed by the township on the roads have been released for the next three weeks to assist far- mers harvest their crops.

Herb. Butt, local insurance man, topped off a commando raid On a district harvest field last week by milking a cow. He milked from the right side but we think someone tipped him off. Local commandos have been doing good work in neighbouring harvest fields. Last Friday night there were thirteen out stocking on one farm. They stood up fourteen acres in an hour and a half. Something- went wrong in the cookhouse and the piecrust was as hard as a brick. The mess wag sent it back with a message: “Give us; the tools and we’ll finish the job!” Some loud advocates of a second fr-ont complain in the next breath about tea rationing. Yet we are told one of the obstacles to a second front is the lack of shipping.

But recently he de- cided to visit a grandâ€"daughter liv- ing in Winnipeg. Newspaipermen asked him his impressions of city l\if-e. “Too many people in too much of a hurry,” was Joe’s comment. To that he added: “Too noisy, pave- ments too hard, hurt feet.” ‘Joe saw the trading floor and wheat pit of the Grain Exchange and» the scene baffled him. “I never heard any- thing like it in my life.” Polite- ness restrained him but he thought wild animals had more dignity than city folk, and he thought business- men looked better on hunting trips. As fast as he could Joe took a train home to the wilderness quiet and a pair of nice, soft moccasins. Women are smart.

' The war finance job confronting the workers becomes one of pleadâ€" ing â€" pleading with their fellow citizens at home to match the de- termination of the boys under fire. These boys have but one purposeâ€"â€" to lick the enemy and get back home to a happy, normal life. Those back at home in Canada cannot match that singleness of purpose, so long as expenditure for War Savings tGertificates and Bonds takes secoml place to expenditures for food, clothing, personal comforts and plea- sure. Premier M. F. Hepburn will har- vest an estimated 20,000» bushels of field onions this year, the most pr0< mising crop ‘ever produced on his reclaimed: black muck soil. At least eighteen acres of the field onions are estimated to yield 1,000 bushels to the acre. In order to increase local milk supplies, the Premier added 18 cows to his herd. More than 1420' cows are now being milked on the Premier’s farms. Canada’s new 12-sided five-cent piece is likely to be in circulation sometime next month, E. W.
