On de- livery here each had to pay two cents on unsufficient prepaid postage, while a few received as -many as three cards. Whether this gentleman who so lav- ishly mailed these cards didn't really know that cards required a two-cent stamp or he just playeda joke is hard to comprehend, but nevertheless, quite a few cents were paid-.into the P.0. here through his neglect, whether in- tentionally or not. The Smithy Anvil Rings Again As stated in my last correspondence, I am` pleased! to infonn the readers that we have once more a village blacksmith in the person of Mr. Seppo, a native of Finland. Although he can- not converse at all freely in the Eng- lish language, he has his son with him as an interpreter, until he masters the language sufficiently to understand one's meaning. It is a hard proposition to form an idea as to whether Mr. Seppo will 'continue here for up to the few days he has been established, business has not been very brisk, in fact not sufficient to prevent a cer- tain amount of discouragement, but let us hope `it will pick -up in the near future.

But as such reports have been in circulation each` spring and fall for several years, not much attention has "been paid to them lately. As far as your scribe can learn there is a 99-year bonus existing that prevents the railway company from curtailing service on this branch,, much to the satisfaction of the business men in the different towns and villages along its line.

At any rate it made quite a difference in the appearance of the fields. It also improved the roads in places. But, oh, those bad spots! They are so numerous that it is just about impossible to leave home` in any kind of vehicle and successfully arrive at one s destination without having to be hauled out some place or other. One hears reports from every corner of the township regarding the F103 roads, but from here to Fergusonvale --once as good a piece of road as any in the township--is scandalous at pre- sent. What can one expect, however, when not one bit of work has been done on it during the past two years. This piece of road was to `be widened and ditched and although a few stumps were removed and a little brush cutout, nothing more was done. Yet, year after year, the taxes have increased, till most of the farmers are almost unable to meet the demand on their resources. The sideroad running south along the ONE. is another sam- ple of neglect. In most places two bicycles could hardly pass each other. Can anyone d-efinitely state why we do not receive more attention on these roads? nun \.uuA u.-.5. Jesus Christ. the King, is coming to review the troops." Mr. Spencer con- cluded.

Scores of British and French troops gave their lives along that historic ridge. Easter Monday, 1917, was a mem- srable day. Easter Day services were held wherever possible and Holy Com- munion celebrated. Everyone knew that his help had come. Mr. Spencer referred again to the text, I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills: -from whence cometh my help. Every ob- jective was taken along with 4,000 `pri- soners, 30 guns and` scores of machine guns and trench mortars as well as great quantities of war material. The Canadians penetrated four miles into the enemy position. The speaker re- ferred to the 64 Canadians who had won the Victoria Cross as a distinction of valor and devotion to duty. Our boys and girls set out on a crusade of Christian civilization," he continued. Half a million of the fin est specimens of Canadian manhood were forced through a wonderful training in corporate thinking. Let us today conserve this self-sacrificing spirit --- that spirit of self-sacrifice that was displayed at home and at the front: a spirit of readiness to stand up for king; and country and loved ones at all costs. ..rn...1._. , .

It '`/(`T5 a test of patience and endurance. In the preparation for that great vic- tory much heroism was shown. Sgt.

(Major) Spencer at Shanty Bay to the members of the Barrie branch of the Canadian Legion was unavoidably held over last week. Mr. Spencer's subject was The Joy of Fellowship and Worship and he spoke from the text, I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills." The Psalm" Mr. Spencer explained. was one of the pilgrim son-gs, sung by the exiles whenreturning to Jerusalem . and shows a spirit of perfect confi- dence and peace in God. It contains the experiences of the march of the pilgrims and seems ts have been sung as they approached the holy hills of Jeruszdeni. On the hills were the Tem- ple and the Holy City, and the temple represented to the Jew the presence of God Himself. As the Canadian army nestled on the plain below Vimy from Nov. 16 to April 9, 1917, those words of Psalm 121 must have come to the minds of the soldiers. Vimy at its greatest elevation was over 400 feet high and it was from that height that the Germans vicxved the Canadians. mrtm ru...._.:._.,_ 1_..__.1 L- -1____-- !wmmELEeIou' IMSHANTY am Examiner Classieds pay.

As the Fifth Form team had not played volleyball before they were rather in- experienced and IIIA had a slight margin at the final whistle. How- ever, that does not mean that IIIA has a much better team than Vth. they just had more practice. Fifth Form had nine players, but as IIIA produced only five, they decided to play with even teams. After the Third Formers had taken two out of three games, Fifth Form put on three players, Sandy Ness, Frank; McInnis and` Parker McMillin, against the five Third Formers. and III_A was easily vanquished.
