HISLOP, Telephone 177 No other lady quite so sweet, so fair and' wise to see, As your small golden lady love, Your lovely “Dear Dearie”. â€"l.i11ian Collier Gray ’DO A GOvLDlEINOI-I All, you ar'e right, you wee wise thing; Your heart has eyes to see How very, very dear she is, This one you call “Dearie”. The Goldfinch, sometimes called wild canary, was very plentiful in the north as he is here. This bird: stays with us all summer and an occasional one, in sombre colors, may be seen even in the winter. How we would miss this colorful, cheery com- panion! Have you noticed! how af- fectionately he addresses his mate as “Dearie”? Listen and’ you will hear it very readily. J (Contributed) One of the pleasant experiences of a two weeks’ sojourn in the Muskoka ‘woodis was seeing the warblers in their summer home. These fascinâ€" colors, make such a short visit in our locality on their way north in the spring and south in the autumn, that it is not possible to make more than a passing acquaintance with them. So it was a real delight to feel that the wanblers seen one day wouldI probably be seen the next day and the next. The warblers are such tiny birds and so quidk-moving' as they dart from limb to limb and tree to tree, that identification is always a bit difficult. In the autumn it is doubly so, for the young have not attained the full color of the mature birds, and the mature are changing into their travelling clothes for their trip southward. But quite a. number of friends met during the spring miâ€" gration were recognized â€" the Myr- tle, the Magnolia, the ‘Blacleburnian, the Black-Throated‘ Green, the Black- Throated Blue, the Redstart and the Black and White, and they lost none of their charm on longer acquaint- ance. The last two named, the Red- start and the Black and‘ White seemâ€" ed very plentiful and were seen al- most constantly. The Pine Warbler green back with white wingâ€"bars, a yellow breast with faint markings :down the sides. The white-eyed vireo, another new acquaintance, with its yellow-green back and yellowish sides, could easily be mistaken for a warbler, ‘but, like all vireos, is chub- bier and less active. iS-ome of these birds have probably already started their journey southward, and may perhaps be seen in our own yards. ating little birds, with their myriad I was a new acquaintance. His mark- ‘ ings are not very distinctive â€"â€" olive- ‘ I BUSES LEAVE Richmond Hill To NEWMARKET A nest of cedar waxwings in a hawthorn .busxh caused a great deal of interest and pleasure to a family of our village this summer. It was built about six feet from the ground‘ so that one had a wonderful view of the ‘goin-gs on’ «of this family of birds. The birds and‘ their young would) not fly away when anyone ventured too near but just ‘froze’ where they were. The cedar wax- ‘wings have been very abundant this summer, we having seen a great many in the cherry-and mulberry trees, and when passing a row of 'ced'ar trees on a country road we stopped to watch a dozen or more‘ flying from one tree to another. You always know- when they are near by the “tseerp-tseep" sound you hear. Bird Chatter 11.46 .16 am. 1 am. 6 p.m. 1 p.m. 6 p.m. 99N?@ wwmm The experience of a Brampton saleslady who was short-changed by a travelling- crook is a warning to others. Press reports are to the ef- fect that such operators are abroad in the land'. The Windsor Star states that short change tricksters are at work in Windsor and that it is prov- ing hard to catch them because of the smoothness with which they work. “One favorite stunt,” The Star says, “is to ask for change for a two-dollar bill and then pick up both the change and‘ the bill.” Com- plaints of shortâ€"changing have re- cently been heard in other places. O WANT ADS COVER AND DISCOVER A MULTITUDE F NEEDS Because of labor shortage on Manitoba farms lboys from Winnipeg High Schools have been welcomed for their help in harvesting. The first group went to Minto where Provin- [cial Government representatives ‘placed them at work. The boys re- garded their outing as an adventure plus the prospect of extra pocket money. zschool authorities have ex- tended the holiday period so that more boys may be available to aid in the harvesting. A local farmer, says the Hanover Post, cut a heavy crop of wheat this summer with a binder 41 years old and used every year. He paid' $25 for it at a farmer’s sale who ‘had bought it for $15 from the originalo owner who paid $10 for it when it was new. The second owner said all the years he had it only once was it left outside and that only for a few days. The country squire met a former church sid‘esman‘. “I never see you passing the plate around now, Hodge,” he said. “No, sir, th’ vicar got this‘ ’ere ‘Safety First’ fever and‘ give the job to Bill Brewer.” “Why?” “Well, poor Bill lost a ’and in the war." With Russia it is one Nazi ava- lanche after another, creeping re- lentlessly, it seems, toward their ob- jectives. About four months of fighting remains before the snow again whistles on the eastern front. vMuch can happen in that time and the fate of the world hangs on its outcome. Lord Louis Mountbatten, leader of the Commandos, has a pet expresâ€" sion to the effect that something of which he approves is “all tickety boo,” and in case Americans do not understand this outrageous piece of English, it should be exp‘lained that it means “okey-doke."’ Some light frost in some sections was reported last week, but little if any damage was done in this dis~ trict. Up in Haliburton whole fields of corn were whitened by the early visit of Jack Frost. Very slight damage was reported from the H01- land Marsh gardens. Seneca Baker of Whitchurch Town- ship, a former Warden of York County, and father of Morgan Baker, M.P.P. for North York, celebrated his 92nd Ibirthday Sunday, August 23. Speckled trout fishing has been ex- tended to September 15 this year in- stead of ending on August 31, ac- cording to Hon. Harry Nixon, min- ister of Game and‘ Fisheries. Recruiting Officer: I suppose you would like a commission? Ex-salesman: No,â€"I’m a rotten shot. Think I had better work on a salary. 'One of the poorest honey crops in history is reported by Ontario apiarâ€" ists. The wet weather early in the season is blamed for the poor yield. Corn cutting has' started through- out the County, and‘ there are some very good crops. September, Labor Day, and no Ex- hibition. Hardly seems right, does it? Next Sunday has been proclaimed a Day of Prayer. Schools open for the Fall next Tuesday. GENERAL NEWS AND VIEWS Termsf Toronto and York Roads Commisâ€" sion delegates believe in travelling “first class”. Expenses for a Que- laimed bec convention were $1,060.00 and ' for one in Niagara Falls $750.00. “Rusty" White has been nominat- ed ‘by the Owen Sound‘ lacrosse club for the Jimmy Murphy memorial trophy. The late Jimmy Murphy, one of the greats of the game, would, we (believe, approve of White gett- ing- it and ‘he stands a fair chance, too. The qualifications are: first, the most valuable player to his team, secondly, a clean player, and thirdly, a player contributing the most in any season to Canada’s na- tional game. It would be a fine tribute to 11 or 12 years of star lacrosse played by the Richmond Hill boy. His strongest opponent will likely be Billy Wilson, who is this year playing coach of the St. Cath- arines club.
