One patient, we are told, obtained his bottle of medicine with the doc- tor’s prescription and then. borrow- ing the mystic document from the druggist, used it for years as a rail- way pass, twice passed it as an in- vitation to a formal dance; once pre- sented it as a recommendation from his employer; loaned it to a friend of his wife as a recipe for Welsh rarebit which, incidentally, made a great hit; and finally as a master stroke of ingenuity, had his daugh- ted play it on the piano for him one evening after dinner. He is now preserving it carefully for the day when he makes his appearance at the Pearly Gates. A prettv autumn wedding took nlace at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Laurance Keffer.

Rx ??x!!zsssss Is there anything else quite so mysterious or baffling as a' doctor’s penmanship? asks The Estevan Me;- cury. Those amazing hieroglyphics. scrathed upon a prescription pad with awe-inspiring nonchalance defy the layman’s sense of rhyme or rea- son. They mig‘ht be anything from Tutankamen’s autograph to the wan- dering footprints of a chicken which had recently stepped in an ink bottle. ‘ The bride, given in marriage by her father. wore a princess lgown of eggshell slipper satin with flowing train. Her veil of tulle was held with a coronet of satin and pearls and she carried a colonial bouquet of‘ Butterfly roses and bouvardia.

RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO THURSDAY, OCTOBER ‘22nd, 1942 Patriotic Rally To Be Held Friday At High School CONCERT BY AURORA BOYS' BAND â€" MOVIE PROGRAM ‘ WEDDINGS DICEMAN KEFFER BROWNâ€"TAYLOR Many, many thanks for the parcel of cigarettes which I received yesâ€" terday. You have no idea how much we appreciate these cigarettes from home. They are so very scarce over here and so very dear now that they begin to seem almost a luxury. and we can do without a lot of things but wIthout a smokeâ€"well, in my case at least I am just as_the saying goes “a lost ball”. The Red Cross is certainly doing a grand job. We have evidence of it over here each and everywhere we turn, in little comforts which may not seem much to some peéple but which mean everything to us in the Forces. A woman has reached the age of practical sense when she quits crowding her foot in a shoe two sizes too small. Richmond Hill Red Cross Per Mrs. O. L. Wright, Richmond ‘Hill, Ontario. Dear Madam:â€" I was in a little place here in England last week called Richmond Hill and believe me I felt quite home- sick i‘or the Richmond Hill we know so well.

Letters From Boys 0n Active Service CENQORSHIP RULING FORBIDS PUBLICATION The voluntary censorship which this newspaper has accepted as.part of the war effort has curtailed the use of information regarding war casualties, until such time as the in- formation is deemed not to be help- ful to the enemy. This invariably is a considerable time after the next- ofâ€"kin have been notified. The rea- son for withholding publication of this information is confidential, but our readers may be assured it is a reasonable request and not just a matter of governmental red tape. We make this explanation because our readers may wonder why no refer- ence is made to news which they have heard. We regret this very much, tut we know our readers will understand. Much disappointment has been shown by the main body of students with regard to.the several who last year asked for treats as the great majority are genuinely sincere and are quite willing to forego the time- honoured custom, believing as they do that it is a means by which they can do their bit. Such returns as are received will go to the British War Victims’ Fund which has alreadv received more than two hundred dollars from the school. Principal Walter Scott has an- nounced that the students of the school have voted in favour of col- lecting pennies on Hallowe’en night as has been the custom during; the past two years. The staff thanks the many parents and friends who co-operated so generously last year and desire to give assurance that the teachers are doing everything nossible to make this effort some- thing _to be proud of.
