Stripped of all technicalities, the fact is that when a man has @had one or two drinks he "feels good," and a result he may want to "show off." "Showing off" is a really dangerous practice in auto driving. The amount of liquor consumed by an auto driver 'is not the main consideration. The more liquor, the less control is the usual result." But the fact remains that even a small amount of liquor taken by an auto driver may render him irresponsible and a possible menace to other people whom he meets on the highway. = Ee : There is nothing fanatical in demanding the greatest possible safety for the public. A skilled lawyer may defend a drunken driver and may prove conclusively that it was not the driver's fault that the deceased man got in the way of the auto that killed him, But all this forensic ability will not restore life, nor alleviate the suffering of the bereaved. There is too much tendency to tolerate wrong doing and to belittle the violation of law. Such a course is very dangerous and good citizens should frown upon the growing practice. : Think of your own attitude of mind if your wife, or child, or gome dear friend were killed by a drunken driver. All the technicalities of the law would not satisfy you in that case. The decent thing to do is to refrain from drinking intoxicating Jiquor. while driving an auto, or when about to undertake that usiness. . ; : FRIENDSHIP - FELLOWSHIP It is too late now to make an official week of "friendship and fellowship"; but it is never too late to begin to be friendly or to have fellowship with the people about us. Al The idea is timely. Modern transportation facilities are so great that we are céasing to be neighbourly or to feel the obliga- tion to be friendly citizens. We are here to-day and somewhere else to-morrow. Every day we pick up chance acquaintances that cost us nothing but a pleasant smile and a few happy words. We are apt to be like butterflies flitting from place to place without assuming the duties of citizenship or of neighbourliness. All this has broadened our outlook, and has made us more . particular about appearances, so that we are tidied up, and kept in smarter surroundings than were common a few years ago. That much is to the credit of the auto, and our modern desire to "go somewhere." However, we must not forget that someone must "keep the home fires burning." - True friendship is not a forced growth; nor does it last for a week only. It requires goodness of heart. It requires faith in humanity. It is a virtue that cannot grow without sacrifice, and is more concerned in giving thah in getting. Neither age nor station in life have anything to do with it. Kindly feelings are like sunshine: they bring warmth to all within the range of one's influence; and sweeten the lives that need enrichment. Winter is approaching and from all appearances there will 'be ample opportunity to give practical evidence of real friendship to those who need to be warmed and filled. : There is no corner around which prosperity is lurking ready to pounce upon us, and give us a glad surprise. The fact of the matter is that we are on an open road with a pretty stiff uphill climb right in front of us. The sooner we quit fooling ourselves with the idea of some magic remedy for financial and other ills; the better. The fact is we must begin over again; and must build our prosperity on industry, honesty, fair dealing, and such gen- erosity as we can fairly exercise. 2 . If our town and the community about us are to be able to enjoy the simple blessings of life then co-operation is essential The customer will buy at home whenever possible, and the meér- ! can command. The cus- tomer will not be unduly grasping for bargains, and the merchant will not expect big profits. - He will become interested in service; and feel that he is a necessary part of the community, Friendship and fellowship are very practical virtues. THE C. C.F. MEETING ~ There is not the slightest doubt about the interest of the rank and file of the people in the 'full dinner pail."' There was ample evidence of this fact in the attendance at the C. C. F. meeting at Port Perry on Tuesday evening. Dr. Cotton is an effective speaker and held the attention of the audience for upwards of an hour. There is no need to agree with all the state-- ments of the speaker; but the invitation to investigate is one that no intelligent voter can afford to ignore, Even those loyal party people who look upon an elec- tion as an opportunity to place their chosen party in power, would do well to study what this new organi- "zation is offering. A good campaigner does not un- derate the strength of his opponent. The need of deflnite and constructive programs is _the most important need of the hour, One of the most effective ways of adding to the power of the C. C. F. will be to denounce them without ofiering a better program, The people are looking for bread, "and will not be satisfied with *'pop."' A short time ago there appeared in this paper an ~ article entitled-- 'Definite Policies Needed.' It is a fact that people not charged with the responsibility of administration can produce a definite policy more easily than those who realize the practical difficulties to be overcome in the application of any policy. But the fact is that there is real need to be constructive in policy as rapidly as possible. The regular parties "have men of experience and ability, whe might well consider this matter seriously. tl ' - > .

These amendments féquire a drastic change in the set-up of pension machinery, and reorganiza- tion work has been going forward a week with no official announcement forthcoming as yet, The old board of pension commis- sioners of three members will become the Canadian pension commissioners with not less than eight and not more than 12 members. The travelling pen- sion tribunal of nine members will be disbanded, while the Pensions Appeal Court of three members will remain a part of the system, It is understood that some 'diffi- culty in deciding the necessary ap- pointments has held up reorganization but the activitics of the tribunal ceased over a week ago and several of the members have already left for 'their homes, The expectation is that all the former commissioners who wish Pot Holder -- Kathleen Wright, | Thirty-three Men Burn to Death at Hollywood Victims were on Relief Work A fire started suddenly in the dry underbrush up in the mountains at Hollywood on Tuesday, October 3. Some hundred and fifty men (largely unemployed) while doing relief work were trapped in a small area between Dam and Mineral Canyons. A force of 3500 men was quickly organized and the fire was put un- der control after it had swept about a thousand acres of uninhabited mountain land, Thirty-three men lost their lives in this terrific fire. NEW YORK GIANTS WIN First Two Games of World's Series (Toronto Globe) Just as the National Leaguers had hoped and their rivals had feared, the lean, lash-like left arm of the Oklahoma southpaw subdues the champions of the American Leage with an exhibition that was masterful despite the background of a shaky defense at critical moments. Hubbell held the hard-swinning Senators to five hits, struck out ten of them, including the first three batsmen to face him, and gave a superb exhibition of steadiness under pres- sure in the last two dramatic innings. ; * The Giants, with a lusty early on-slaughter, led by "Little Mel" Ott, who collected four hits in as many times at bat, including a first-inning home run, routed Wally ("Lefty") Stewart, the Tennessee veteran, in the third inning. They rushed the Senators off their feet with a surge that belied their label of "hitless won- ders," but their infield defense was erratic and they forced Hubbell : . . SST hE y 1 to bear down with everything at' his command at the finish, where Washington was stopped with the tying run on second base. But for two errors behind him that paved the way for the Senators to score in the fourth and ninth innings, Hubbell might have celebrated his World Series debut with a shutout of the sort he has been handing National League opposition all season. The near-capacity crowd of 46,672 cash customers, filling all but a few scattered corners of the Polo Grounds, saw the great southpaw pitch himself out of difficulties in the eighth and ninth innings. = Up to that stage of the game, working smoothly and effectively behind a 4-1 lead, Hubbell had the Senator clouters handcuffed with.a mixture of a fast curve, a change of pace and his dazzling "screw ball." In six of the first seven innings, only three Senators batted against the lanky left-hander. - Suddenly, after "fanning" Bluege at the start of the eighth, Hubbell momentarily lost control. He passed Luke Sewell, and then walked Dave Harris, pinch-hitting for Jack Russell. There was a worried look on Manager Bill Terry's fgee for the first time in the game. The infield clustered around the southpaw, then went back to check the Senators on two exciting plays. 3 In the sixth, the Giants' southpaw again made Myer, Goslin and Manush look bad as he retired them on two fouls and a pop fly. The evidence of the manner Hubbell had the Senators under control most of the afternoon was conspicious by the fact, except for the few Senator hits, only one hall was hit out of the infield. A tighter infield defense inthe pinches would have blanked the American Leaguers in all liklihood, but, even so, Hubbell gave his rivals scant cause for encouragement. First Game Results-- R. H.
