OSHAWA, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 12, 1922 A A y rr PY Candy Day Being Today is being observed as Candy Day throughout Canada and the United States, Many confectioners in Oshawa have made extra prepa- rations for this event, and some are offering special inducements to buy- ers, Candy today, of the fresh, wholesome, delicious brand, is look- ed on by medical authorities as a nutritious food, not a luxury. There's hardly a man today but had boyhood dreams of when he had reached man's estate he would work in a candy shop where he would eat to a finish and satisfy himself, That was the happiest day of all, So there has come a National Candy Day, to be celebrated as na Remembrance Day, a day for giv- ing gifts of candy, gifts that carry no obligation, just express thought- fulness and kind feelings and happi- ness, a Send Billie Burke OLD FASHIONED Chocolates 60c¢ aPound Take a box home for Sunday, You will be de- lighted with the excellent quality of this candy. BURMESE WOMAN LIKES HER CIGAR The women of Burma are invet erate smokers, It is said that a mother will often transfer the light- ed cigar from her own mouth to that of the baby in her arms, te give her infant a taste of the favorite cheroot, No lady would start on a dress parade without taking a neces- sary stock of 'smokes' to last her while she is out, Burmese women occupy a very high position when compared with the status of other orieptal women. They walk the stréets in absolute freedom. They take part in and often have com- plete charge of the business affairs of their families, Courtship in Bur- ma is a more open and natural flir- | tation than it is in almost any other part of the Fast.

The common people get pléasure even from a funeral, which they always turn into quite an event, with music and a general gathering of friends, The Costa Rican i8 a born music lover, and almost any- one who can get possession of an instrument is able to play by ear. Small country funerals are usually preceded merely by an accordion player, who squeezes out any tune that comes into his head, ignorant of the names of all, et ----a eee WESLEY'S "SAFE" HABIT It was the custom of John Wesley, who travelled much on horseback, to read as he jogged along.

In "YA Wide Open Town" the character he portrays is none which will appeal to every man and woman who has learned, from hitter experi- ence that expected perfection in human nature scarcely ever material- jzes.
