DATED at Barrie this 11th day of July, 1919. William George McBride by his Solicitor D.C. Murchiso: - COWIE The Farmer Should Keep His Name on the Mall Box! 'The Government at Ottawa de- cided several years ago that the rural population of Canada were entitled lo receive better mail service than they had been get- ting and, at great expense, in- augurated free delivery all through the settled portions of the Provinces, Boxes and +fit- lings were forwarded to all the. people living on rural lines, who desired them, at cost price. The name of each patron was print- ed on the box and a cut of his name enclosed with the furnish- ings so that as soon as the name showed signs of fading a little fresh paint could be applied and the name could always be read easily by any person driving on the public highway. That was the mail carrier's guide to make delivery. The peoplé, or a great majority of them, have grown careless in the matter. They look for their mail to be deliver- ed correctly and yet eight out of every ten: boxes haven't the sign | The New F, ancy Goods Store Wools, Stamped Goods, )Children's Wear, Pullovers and Sweater Coats, Beads and all lines of Fancy Goods. : Clapperton Street---East Side SUCCESSORS TO MISS ARMITAGE q }edn--any man-- who drives .|live and do business,--St. Marys of a name on them now. The mail carrier is neither steel nor cast-iron and is liable to all the diseases of the human race. Some 'day he will have to send a stranger over the route and the new man will find what-he is up against when he gets to the box. No name: can't deliver. Gets to a cross-section of the line where several boxes are at the corner. 'This time he runs into greater difficulties: a whole group of boxes and nol @ name, and the owner of the boxes agreed with the Government that they would maintain and keep in order the line, shovel away the snow from around the boxes and assist in keeping the road open in winter. Tey are a favored people: mail delivered three hundred and thir- teen days in the year, right to the gate, free. The mail carrier goes every day; no holidays, not even Christmas or New Year's Day. As the Frenchman says: every day." Are you trying to make the delivery of mail matter as perfect as possible? We hear a lot about the breaking faith with the farmer; has the farmer done what he agreed to with the Government? Ask the mail carrier; or, bettgr still, look at your mail box and see how a new man could deliver your mail correctly. This is a matter that concerns the farmer more even than it does the mail carrier, so straighten up your posts and get your name repaint- ed on your mail boxes so that a the road may know where you Journal. o,f Don't Buen Chaff or Straw Mix Cane Mola with old hay, straw, chaff, ensilage, etc., and feed to all your live-stock.

No large part | of the population have been made the sole heirs of rich relatives overnight. The profiteer who overcharges jhis customers breaks an econ- omic law. Sitmilarly, all others who altempt to "ride the system" violate a fixed and invariable rule. They take more than they pay for. . The whole attitude is false and dangerous towards _ industry, society or life itself. Those con- cerned may enjoy themselves for a while, but they invite a dis- illusionment gravely distressing. And a sadder part of it is that the innocent, often must suffer' as well as the guilty. The people not in a position to indulge in joy-riding are yet liable to be' run down and to share in a wide- spread disaster. A certain percentage of the Population always have been attracted by. proposals to make gold bricks out of ..condensed sunbeams.

Essentially is this a duty when stores of all kinds are low. Humanity will trave to realize the truth in time, no matter whal happens to these wonderful schemes for political, industrial and social reform, Whether we continue as freemen or as slaves by our own decision or under the orders of the auto- crat chosen to attempt a cleaning up, we will have to continue by the same old route of worry and hard work. The time has come to abandon the gold-rush. There is no gold but the reward of energy. District Meeting The Methodist churches of Rarrie District held their annual! financial meeting in the Central Methodist Church, Barrie, on Wednesday, Sept. 40. In the afternoon the Methodist National Campaign was discussed, ad- dresses being given by Rev. H. Moore, Rev. R. Morton and Rev. Dr. Burns, 'This campaign in- cludes a great united evangelis- tic effort throughout the Domin- jon and the raising of funds for, extension work 'in missions, edu- | cation, ete, 'The leaders of the, Chureh, after much prayerful consideration, have inaugurated , a ul forward movement hav-! ing for its objective 100,000 add- itions to chureh membership, 100,000 8.

W.

The cow was about to be slaughtered when it broke away and made for the water and swam right out into the lake.
