RE DESTROYED F NEWTONVILLE HOME Neighbors Helped to Save Most of Furniture of S. Knight (By Staff Reporter) Bowtie Aug. 12.--Late Friday afternoon fire destroyed the home of Mr. S. Knight, of Newton- ville. Shortly after- five o'clock tire broke out in the kitchen and gained such headway that willing neighbors who gathered In re- sponse io the rural phone alarm were unable to stop it. They did, however. succeed in saving most of the furniture in the front of the house, but the rest of it and the good frame house fell prey to the gluttonous flames. Fortunately there was no wind at the time and a nearby shed was saved. The ma- chinery that was in it was moved to safety. The loss is estimated at about $4,000, which is partly covered by insurance. The fire was first noticed by Miss Snell, a granddaughter of Mr. Knight who makes her home with him, just a short time after she had made a fire in the kitchen stéve and then gone to the stable to do some milking. It is presum- ed that the stove or pipes became overheated, thus causing the seri- ous fire. Miss Snell immediately spread the alarm by telephone, and ic was not long till the neighbors within reach were on the spot, salvaging the furniture. Mr. Knight's farm is situated on second concession of Hope r---------------------- CARS CRASHED ON THE KINGSTON ROAD Occupant of United States Car Was Seriously Injured (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, Aug. 12.--A crash oc- curred on the Kingston road about three o'clock on Saturday after- noon, when a car owned and driven by Miss T.

The increased demand this year will cost the town $309 more than last and town officials state that this increase will be shown in the elec- trjc bills sent to consumers during Augtst. As it is claimed the extra 103 horse power used on Tuesday, July 30th, was not for industrial pur- poses it is thought that electric appliances as stoves, iroms, vac- uum cleaners and hot plates must have caused the extra load. The amount of water delivered to the main amounted to 14,103,- 300 gallons which is an average of 454,945 gallons per day. A year ago the amount used equalled 12,- 649,000, and in 1927 to 12,649, 000 gallons. The greatest' amount pumped was 567,600 gallons and occurred on the last day of the month, ' The average consumption per head a day amounted to 64 gallons, This includes water used for industrial purposes and the railroads and 's considered to be low as in many municipalities the amount per head often runs to over a hundred gallons.

FOCH A TRUE HERO IN EYES OF HIS AIDE Major Bugnet's Portrait of the Victorious Com- * mander of Allies . an Toronto. ?_ Hero-worship as thor- ough going as Major Charles Bug- net's in "Foch Speaks" (Longmans, Green), is often silly. His is not. But the meticulously faithful portrait he has drawn of "the man who was for a time the ruler of the destinies of the world," reveals no such superman as the author believed Foch to be. His eye-glasses are described, and the cord which hung from them, and exactly how he sat when opening his mail. "It is a pleasure to see him write, so carefully, with his beauti- ful hand, long and round like a pearl shell with its glowing tones, holding his. pen-holder between his fine slender fingers." In his office: "For ornament not a single painting, not a single trophy All round the edge of his table stands a barricade of books, files and calen- dars. Every day the barricade rises a little higher. Sometimes, after a rearrangement, it extends its foun- dations and begins to grow still high- er." The face comes out: "The mar- shal"s features, so plainly stamped with 'energy, his piercing glance, his square jaw, his sharp gestures, no less than his keen questions, his mental penetration, his lucidity and the can- dor and his opinions, leave so many clear-cut impressions." : All this is from the life. The like- ness is a speaking one, apart from the hundreds of direct quotations that fell from the great man's lips, and were carefully treasured by his admiring aide-de-camp. It is equally impossible to deny his estimate of the man is not as accurate as Foch's estimate of himself. "I have suc- ceeded probably because 1 worked hard at my calling and knew it... Do as | have done. When a man of ordinary - capacity--yes, 1 repeat, of ordinary , capacity---concentrates all his faculties and all his means on the attainment of a single purpose, 'by working hard and without being div- crted from his goal, he is bound to attain it." Yet, with the readiness of a strong, simple nature to erect into general laws what is true in his individual case, the marshal pro- ceeds: "You can always succeed when you give yourself to a cause, when you avoid dissipating your energies Gifts, gifts! There is no such thing, There is nothing but hard work" Alas for the~great soldier's sapicnce some have natural gifts which erable them to do easily what others do with effort, or cannot do at all; and opportunity is a factor in success, that he, who had and used opportunity, entirely overlooks. Ex- cept for .the war, we should never have heard of Foch. V ; Foch should not have denied his own gifts because they were not spec- tacular. They were the soldier-like qualities of courage, patience, | cone centration and tenacity, with clear thinking as far as his own work was In 22 Days : help puting on good healthy flesh Extract Tablets.

Bowmanville, Aug. 12.--Many people report feeling the slight earthquake early this morning. Many people were awakened by the jolt which was also felt through Oshawa and other centres mearvy. concerned, and the acquired and in- stinctive knowledge of when to take risks. These allowed him to do his conspicuous" part in winning the war, for which he had zealously prepared for 45 years, and which he feared, towards the end, that he would never live to see. Professionally he was reat. Philosophically he was not. His avorite maxims, such as "One should do what is expected," or "Like a par- rot climbing a ladder, we must get a firm grip on one rung before reach- ing out for the next," are not of the upper ranges of speculative thought. Pattern for a Career His career is beautifully unified, and illustrates his virtues. He was born at Tarbes, October 2, 1851, and in 1870 joined the army for the dura- tion of the war, which was over be- fore he could get into it. Then he took a course at the Ecole Polytech nique, graduating as an artillery offi- cer. As a captain, he entered the Staff College in Paris in 1885, served for a time on the General Staff, and returned to the Staff College a Pro- fessor of Strategy. His lectures were collected into the books, "Principals of War," and "The Conduct of War." After holding command of an artil- lery regiment, he was promoted to the rank of general, and returned to the Staff College as commandant. In 1914 he commanded the army corps at Nancy. By agreement of March 26, 1918, "General Foch is entrusted by the British and French governments with the co-ordination of the move- ments of the Allied armies on the Western front." - This post of supre- macy he held until the armistice. No vague ambition impelled Foch's tise. After the disaster of 1870, he realized "that we are short of lead- nothing else. They dare not take re- sponsibility. = They ought to; preare themselves to occuy important posi- tions." Foch prepared himself from youth to bear the burden of the high command, ; ; That ascent was not without its re- verses, and his patience under them was the same -as that whiclr enabled him to finish the Great warwith firm, fresh faith. In 1901, he was dismissed | from the Staff College because he was )| accused of bein : a reactionary, was unjustly sent to Laon, kept under sus- picion and' deprived of advancement for three years. When those being punished with him grew restive, he warned them: "When the war comes, you will -have to put uptwith worse things than that" . He. did. "The Battle of the Somme did not produce all the results we had hoped for. It was therefore necessary to: find a scapegoat, and I was pronounced un- fit for duty on medical' ds. But said, 'I am not done for'" : Instead of: resigning in 'pique; he took what work was given him: and by Febru- ary 1918 the Supreme War Council considered ho other candidate for the unified command. Proud of Winnin The climax of that life directed to a single end came as he faced across the table the German 'emissaries, come to sue for an armistice. "It was ers. They know their profession but' the best day of my life," said this splendidly simple man. "When I saw them in front of me, I can assure you that | was a proud man." He had wanted to eat the Germans, he had done it and he wanted them to realize it. He strongly advised the annexa- tion of the Rhineland and other pen- alties; and when his advice was not taken, he proudly refused to sign the Peace Treaty: Pity is the last emotion the author wished to awaken for his idol; but he has made the post-war Foch a pathe- tic figure,--taking pride in 'getting to the office punctually in the morning, a man over 70, going through his fid- dling routine, talking to his old crony Weygand. After leading armies. Why poor Foch was just like every other returned soldier, out of a job, and not knowing what to do with himself, the reason for living gone. \ And his disappointments about honors. Lloyd George proposed making him a grant, such as the British commanders got; but Clemenceau stopped it. The Americans offered to make him a gen- eral in their army--"with pay." Foch explained wistfully--and Briand, then premier, would not allow it. Appar- ently France gave him fothing. He sald he would. have liked an estate to leave to his children; failing that, "a house--some sort of hut, even--a YOUR H the sf T Nature for Help, OUR HERBAL REMEDIES have been before public since 1888, and our Organization has advanced to e where w i J OWN HERBAL STO!

In that seven and a half months' battle that raged from March 26, 1918, when he took com- mand, till November 11, there was nothing subtle about the tactics. Sometimes there were none, beyond hitting the enemy in front and beat- ing hum. It was as uncomplicated hammer-and-tongs a - business as many of the great British naval vic- tories of a century earlier. Foch dashed up and down telling. his gen- erals to strike. They said they had no reserves; he replied it didn't mat- ter, he would take the responsibility. They said that their men were used up, and their forces melting away. He said, fight on, fight on." For he believed the Allies were just enough stronger than the Ger- mans to last just enough longer to beat them. e¢ was right. That is strategy, Had he saved his forces, the war might have ended in a draw. But he smote them hip and thigh, like one of Israel's warrior kings, and brought victory. For that he lived and worked and prepared himself all his life. We should be thankful that he lived no longer to realize the sad limits of human gratitude. ENGLISH ATTITUDE TOWARD PLAY Precious Qualities Pleasing to Others--Sense of Fair Play Berlin--The British have given free rein to their play-instinct, but, while confining it by rules, they have not thwarted its natural develop- ment. Here and there, under Puri- tan influence, play has been forcibly repressed, but such repression' was temporary and had little effect on de- velopments in other directions. It is this natural evolution of the play- spirit which has given English char- acter its most interesting features and from the political, cultural and broadly human point of view, its most important aspect. The play-attitude is essentially naive. English games are not "made," nor are they necessarily or- ganized; they are entirely natural In whatever sphere, sport, drama or music, they have arisen as naive ex- pressions of natural instinct. "The naive is childishness occurring where least expected." In writing this, Schiller had no thought of England, but if he had been describing English character he could not 'have been more to the point. The English lan. guage has no word to define the most characteristic. 'We have to bor- row it from the French naivette. And it was in looking for something little in keeping with their own character that they discovered it. But with the English, naivette is a permanent qua- lity. Play gives them tite. means of retaining happy childhood right into old age. It is nowadays everywhere the fashion, and a very pleasant one, to appear, and inwardly to/be, young- er than the calendar permits or our grandfathers could have expected. In England this fashion is no discovery . ++. Reaction against leaden Pur- itanism has been mainly instrumental in stimulating the Hellenistic spirit, the cult of physical beauty, the play- attitude of the ancients, which ranged from the theatre to the arena. specialty, and Human nature carves out its path urged on by a desire for free rhythm and new harmoonies . ... such har. mony is only obtainable when one cag remain naive, and make sport merely a link between the physical and the intellectual; when one can keep in the background not only artificial or- ganization and its excesses, but ath- letic exaggeration; in short, when the play-attitude achieves more than a brilliant kick or an absurd record. To have achieved such harmony, in their own way and not without seme trembling of the balance, is the merit of the knglish people. In the past Puritanism, often unconsciously and unintentionally, has been the mcst dangerous enemy to the development of childlike naivete in the British character. In our own time the greatest danger and rival has been the commercialization of sport. In the field of sport England has returned to both natural and national paths, but the nation-is beginning to get back, in the same natural mane ner, to all other kinds of play as we Thus a wide vista is opened up, for the motive force behind this childlike simplicity 1s, like everything funda- mentally natural, potential artistic power and a mainspring of national culture. England's most valuable in- tellectual and artistic achievements have always been based on a popu« lar foundation, and the same can al« most be said of English art... - By virtue of their play-sense the English have acquired certain quali« ties which are as precious to thems« selves as they are pleasing to others; a rare sense of humor . ... meeting its blows with laughter; on the other hand, remarkable social and moral gifts, the result of team work, that is to say, manly rivalry under the aegis of fair play.--Rudolph Kircher, in "Fair Play: the Games of Merrie England."
