ALLEN King St.Woet Westminghou SA1TERYLESS AND SATTERY ,se RADIO- and RADIOLAS My Dear Nieco: I like the des- cription of your new home and I think you should be very happy and comfortable. Do flot oxpeet wonders at fluet, it takes quite a littIe whie to become uaed to a new locality. You are at present toc unsettled ta judge truly of your surrouadiags and your neighbor, and it la always unwise to judge rashly. An ideal situation, Ideal noighbors and an ideal bouse, la a rare combina- tion ta achievo at firat, but in time you sbould be able ta acquire &Il thre. Do not; expect your neighbors to caîl an you toc aoon, they are evi- dently waiting for you ta become more sttId. If yours la thse aaly large bouse la thse near vicinity you should be ploas- ed and not bewail the fact f thse emaîl houssa; it la the emaîl bouse that gives thse impression that youru issolarge. Nothîag can b. large or amaîl ex- cept by comparison. You may seom ricis because others around you are pooror, you can appear well drossod la a community if other people are shbby. This goos to show wo should not rashly snub those who are inferior ta us as it la by them we assume so mucis greatass. Such greatass may dwsndle ta a poor showiag if athers in better cir- cumstances, better educated, or en- dowed with more worldly goods corne around. What then! It would be we who would b. poor and inferiorl Better b. glad-and humble at the anie time -that so many of your neighbors appear la emaller circuni- stances than you, if you are so amn- bitious ta become the bead of your community. But be careful you do not draw conclusions too rapidly-many great people live la emalhousese; and no one ahould be beneatb anotber's not- ice and eschewed froni their society ia a emaîl country commuinity. Thse oaly lino you can draw froas associatiag with another le bad char- acter, meannese or disbonesty. You should be frieadly witb al- intimacy la another thing. You cannot be intimate and glve confidences until you know people, and same people are very bard ta know. Gusbing, averfriendliness at first la not always a good siga for close friendsbip, but it le not s bad on- such a persan may genuinely want ta help you ta become acquaiated. Take ail their friondly advances as they moan them, and meot them with rsady friendshlp with a reservation -and make no rash judgments which tatou ycu me> regret. Your lovlng, AUNT SUSAN. DEPLETES FARMS 0F LABOR N.wcomers Would Be More Content ta Remain on Ferms if More Con- sideration Were Shown by Employ- er& in Matter Comforts and Re- creation. Pointing out that oae of the prin- cipal reasons why newcomers to Canada are not willing to remain onî the land for any length of tinie isr that they are flot given proper con-t sideration by their farmer employers Rev. E. M. Cook, writing to The Toronto Star froin Enniskillen, niakes a number of suggestions whichi he believes would help to remedy the situation. "Generally speaking'", writes Mr. Cook, "the immigrant is in love with Canada. Its freshness is invigorat- ing and its freedom exhilarating. Sometimes he grows lonesome but rather than want-to return home he looks for ways and means to get the i rest of the amily out here. Large Audience Greet the Young Perfoimers and Witness the Christ- mas Tree Distributions. A moving picture la real life was presented in Trinity Sunday School Roomn on Monday evening when over 100 members of Number Oae Prim- ary Class, held the annual entertaîn- ment and Christmas tree. It takes the wee tots to bring out the parents and friends and they were there in large numbers and enjoyed seeing and hearing many ot these little ones tkspeak their piece or sing their song" for the flrst timne. The little folks know nothing, of stage fih n their perfectly natural actions are most amusiiig. Dr. J. C. Devitt, Superintendent of the School, preaided, and in bis happy way presented a program of some thirty numbers as follows: Bowmanel WE RECOMMEND We are ini the Radio Business.
