PHONE 47w When Maw Did Not Get The Last Word -A well-known Wiarton woman went to an auction sale recently to buy a small flower stand. She told her husband before sh« went that she jvould like to get this flower stand hut did not tell him she was going to the sale. There was a good crowd there and Auctioneer Beacock was going in fine style. How much am I offered for this lovely flower stand, table or whatever you like to call it. said he. "Fifty cents" said our friend at once. "What only fifty cents for this beautiful flower stand that can be used for holding pies, salads or anything you want to put on it?" ''Surely fifty cents wouldn't pay for the varnish." Someone on the other side of the crowd bid a dollar. Then the bidding became brisk, $1.50. $2.00. $2.50, $3.00. It was a man who had the last say and his son was standing beside him. He edged through the crowd, then nudged his father. "Say, Dad" he said, "you're bidding against mother." We bet mother had the last word when they got home. â€" Wiar- ton Canadian Echo. _S LONG MAY THEY WAVE Miss Agnes Macphail, M.P., wad guest of honor and speaker at the luncheon on Women's and Music Day in the balcony 01 the Women's Build- ing at the Canadian National Exhi- bition in Toronto on Thursday. Mith characteristic humor and frankness. Miss Macphail outlined the position of women today. De- velopment of women in any country follows the general development of that country, she said. Women of the United States where business ideals are paramount, for instance, have taken to business rather than politics â€" some have international reputations. In Great Britain, '"the Mother of Parliaments," women make their mark in the realm of politics and public affairs â€" but with few ex- ceptions, they are not good business w^omen. In Scandinavia, also Hol- land, where people have a love of good government, the women are about equally divided â€" they are good wtiMKi and good business women. "Im Canada we have good business womenâ€" esp«cially the younger worn en, who are smartly dressed, keenly interested in business, and take for granted what women of the older generation had to work hard to get,'' she said. Canadian women are tak- ing more interest in public affairs â€" they have done much to improve conditions but there are not enough in politics. It is up to the women of Canada to take an even greater interest in politics and public affairs.

MARRIED THINK THIS OVER Did you ever do sixty miles per hour at night on a good stretch of roadT If »o. the chances are that you are driving "blind" and don't know it. With good brakes and good road conditions, you need three hun- dred and thirty feet to stop at si.xty miles per hour. So. if your head- lights enable you to see only two hundred feet, your stopping point at any moment is almost one hundred and fifty feet beyond the distance you ««n see. -A truth that's told with bad intent beats all the lies you can invent. chanls where a heavy infestation has .accumulated from previous years. In the Trenton and Iroquois-Morris- burg districts several thousand bar- rels of apples were severely damagevl by hail.
