So we could go on. The weekly paper with its neighborhood newer has brought before the people the doings of the home -folks, their work," their play, their social joys, their sorrows,--little unimportant happen- ings -to those who live in the neighborhood, `but to those absent a link that binds them to the best in the past.

And in the strength of `that refreshment they can go on to do continually hater work---aml so they" are thankful for the home paper and the neighborhood correspondents," who,-by much sacrifice constitute themselves a link which bind them to all the best in the pant. ` mums, CANADA, THURSDAY, `Aucusr 30, 1923. V No. Col. Barker, V.C., commandant at Camp Borden, laid the information against Campbell, who was arrested and brought to Barrie on Monday. Later lhewas allowed out on bail un- til his case came up on Friday. Neighbors Testify I The chief witnesses for the Crownl at the trial were several neighbors of the Campbell family residing in the same barracks and the maid who ' had been employed by them. They testified that the elder child, Ina, aged four, had been beaten by her father on Aug. 7. The Crown wit- nesses, called were Dorothy Myers, the maid, Miss Thomas, who was a teacher at Camp Borden, Mrs. Allan, at newt-door neighbor, and Mrs..Violet Taylor, who lived two doors away. Here is where the home paper comes in. It comes as a weekly letter freighted with the fragrance of the memories of bygone days. The first bit of news they look for is thenews of their old `neighborhood. There they see that Mrs. A. is visiting Mrs.-B. and they smile and say-, Well, well. she is still on her rounds, is she? Mr. D. has just cut his clover,- and they see again the field where as boys they picked berries from the fence comers. and the hollow rails where they had many a losing fight trying to rob the bumble bee. They read that -Mr. W. is dead. Well, well. he seemed an old man when they were still young. They remem- ber his rugged honesty and the homely advice which from his desk as sup ` erintendent of the Sunday School he gave -them. And so `he isedead. but `his words and influence which can never die come back to them and they live over again their Sunday School days, but` now realizing what they did notasboys andgirls, how necessary, how important, the need of a character built uponthe ideal of the Holy Word. Q- _._ ._..I.l _. ,,, nu Now for some years after these people went away the weekly or mon- thly letter .followed them. No one can estimafe the inspiration or res- training force of these letters, but one by one the_ writers laid aside the pen or their eyes became dim and their -fingers cramped with age, and the letters grew less frequentyand vfinally ceased altogether. Hosts of the boys and girls who have been absent from this country for twenty, thirty or forty years have not had a 'writ.en' letter from the place of their birth for years. Is the inspiration of this sacred memory to be allowed to die out? _ ' V (The Picton Gazette) I have before me as I write a letter written to the editor of this paper from a-far off town in Saskatchewan. The writer is speaking not only i for herself but on behalf of that great number who once made this county their home. They are scattered to the four corners of this continent but they still think of us as the home folk, and the part of the paper which possesses the grentest,interest for them is the local news, sent in week by week by our staff of faithful correspondents from -the different parts of the county. These patient. untiring, often much abused news gather- ers are building better than they know. They are like the ancient prophets not without honour saveiin their own neighborhood. It seems so trifling to say that Mrs. A. called on Mrs. B., or -Mr. W. is killing hogs or threshing his clover, or that Mr. and Mrs, N , have gone to town. But now look at it from the viewpoint of the readers of this paper living in different parts of the country. They have gone. away for var- ious reasons but they are building for themselves homes as their fathers did, faced with the same conditions, perplexed by the same problems and they are anxious to keep the old-time traditions and transplant the old: i time ideals in the new places to which they have gone. The hope of our great new land which is. opening up is in many things-the church, the schools. the class of settlers which they are getting. But not the least among the influences which will make this land an ideal place to live in, is the preservation `and transplanting of the home ideals which the boys and girlsrwho have left the older portions have had instilled into them in their youth. Anything thenwhich keeps the spark of the memory of the old home from going out, anything which binds them to the things. of the past, is playing a big part in keeping Canada a land of the best ideals. - THE NEIGHBORHOOD CORRESPONDENTS 1(bontine:l Vwpage 5 Ten Varieties, one of each--1, Geo.
