Reds We don‘t think that it is quite fair to refer to the Soviet State as "Red" Russia, because the Soviet State actuâ€" ally is not as red as the United States. Take last year, the US. went inlo the red to the tune of $5,167,678471, and the Soviet State couldn‘t be that red because it daoesn‘t know there is that much money. Preaching and Practising The telephone ccmpany has run big advertisement, asking patrons to answer their phones promptly and save time. A couple of times recently we have called a number, and each time after about ten rings, the operator has cut in and said: "That number has been changed to â€"â€"" The Great Lakes It must be great to be on a Great Lakes boat.

But life in a cottage sometimes means a lot of work owing to the lack of city conveniences, which is the reason for the great popularity of such resorts as Devil‘s Gap and French River where visitors live in cottages which are as well serâ€" viced as hotel suites.

Gas Masks For Horses The U.S. chief of cavalry wanted gas masks for his horses and mules. A Congressional committee turned down the appropriation. "Questionable economy," jJibes a newspaper. We don‘t think the committee was thinking of economy at all. It was considering the feelings ana hardships of the men who chaperon the horses. ) Trying to coax a horse to shove his head in a gas mask would be the last straw for the "skinners‘" whose lanâ€" guage already shows that horses ana mlules can create great heights of exâ€" asperation â€" without having to be taught to put on a gas mask.

There is a strong family reâ€" semblance between Devil‘s Gap Lodge, near Kenora, and French River Chalet Bungalow Camp, on the Canadian Pacific Torontoâ€" Sudbury ‘ line.

He writes, "Personally we can view without alarm an ankle in silk, wool or cottonâ€"â€"" ; Anybody. who can speak so positiveâ€" iy as to how he views silkâ€"clad ankles has ceriainly been scerutinizing them with keen. appreciation, rather than viewing them with alarm.

It is short and has a sort of brisk sound, although we conféess we don‘t knowiexactly what it means. OU ‘la: Speaking of these men it says: "When he new atches are in camp." We hope the "atches" all turn out o be good soldiers.

Althougsh theroe are amuseâ€" ments for every member of the family, the most popular sport at these resorts is fishing. That is because the fishing is so good. Pickerel, pike, sturgeon, plus those secrappiest gameâ€"fish of the Canadian waterâ€"world, the musâ€" calunge and the smallâ€"mouth black bass are found in abundanâ€" ce. Both districts have produced record fish, the most outstanding of which was the sixty and oneâ€" half pound muscalunge caught by J. J. Coleman, of Evansville, Indiana, in Fagle Lake, east of Devil‘s Gap, in 1939. That one holds the world‘s record. possession Pope, Esq Only two minor charges were laid by‘the Timmins police over the weekâ€" end.
