privilege so do not abuse it there are three candidates in york north jack smith the sitting member arthur walwyn pc and arch woods ccf after all probably we are showing better sense than they did in the old days when men went around as party heelers in terfering and trying to influence whom they could by fair or other means good citizens quarrelled and said bitter things against one another and all sorts of trouble was stirred up between strong party men after all there are so many liberals and so many conser vatives in the country they pro- bably are about equal so we can set them off against each other they are going to vote their party good or no good then there is an inbetween group probably one third of the electors who do their own thinking and decided in their own minds just whom they will support these are the individ uals who really rule canada these institute picnic delightful at the monthly meeting of stouff ville womens institute at the home of mrs james ridout the

qualified person to vote and as jack smith mp says the choice is up to the people as to whom they vote for but none can escape the responsibility or duty of casting the ballot incidentally jack smith is picked to win york north from what can be seen in this section of the riding many former residents were in town for an hour or two on sunday for the cemetery memorial service we have suggested it before and occasionally it is done the keeping of a register at the grounds during the time of service so that a re cord of the visitors would be available for reference and for the press we know that

provincial police officer was summoned and he promptly shot the animal just why the killing the beaverton express newspaper does not stipu late if the animal was not injured it should not have been killed by anyone much less a police officer the inoffensive porky feeds on rodents and other stuff we can do well without hence he should not be killed off in such thoughtless manner mr h j malloy is
