Local Returned Soldier Voices Comâ€" plaimmnt Against Attitude Adopted Towards Men Who Have Served. T00 MUCH REO TAPE IN AFFERENGE T3 PENSIONS This week The Advance is in re ceipt ef the following letter which spealss for itself :â€" ‘‘My Country; may she always be right. Brt mey country, right or wrong.‘‘ â€"â€"Stephen Decatur The Rditor, Porcupine Advance. Dear Sir:â€"I was glad to read in the press reports of the Canadian Leâ€" gion Convention at Peterborough that Article IV., paragraph 9, of the Conâ€" stitution is to be rigidly adhered to. That paragraph reads: ‘‘No avowed Anarehist, Communist, or other perâ€" son who advocates the destruction of ergamized government in Canada by foree, shall be permitted to become a member.‘‘ But in spite of the openly and honestly avowed intention of the Legrion as a body to loyally support properly constituted government, one cannet help but feel sore at the conâ€" tinwal administrative pinâ€"pricks being meted out to the disabled veterans by way ef an exaggerated use of red tape. I personally had the following experience last week in Toronto. Beâ€" ing ir urgent need of money I applied at Christie Hospital for a small adâ€" vanee of pension, a perfectly legitimate request, and was refused. _ The reâ€" quest was made to meet the rent due on Jure Ist, and it was only through the generosity of a Timmins man to whom I appealed that I was eventuâ€" ally able to meet the demand. Are not the Timmins and district veterans to reeeive the same privileges, the same consideration, as those, say, of Toronto? Is it because the tapeâ€" boun@ officials believe that Timmins is, politically, off the map? And does not this kind of treatment make it hard for one still to believe wholeâ€" heartedly in the quotation given at the head of this letter? We do not wish to exalt ourselves for services to our country and empire. â€" Nor do we ask for any gloriâ€" fied sentimentality to be attached to The officials administering the varieus Acts passed for the benefit of the exâ€"service men must not overlook the just and equitable claims of the veterans of this district. @r the contrary, I can unhesitaâ€" tingly express my own opinion that the great majority of exâ€"service men weuld be glad to forget the last war MOISLEY BALL, Glorious Hair As a change from commonplace foods, try Quaker Puffed Wheat or Quaker Puffed Rice. They are just whole grains, but their nutlike flavour is enhanced by the pufling process. Thoroughly cooked, and made easily digestible because every food cell has been broken down. W hen hot weather weakens the digesâ€" tive system, you long for simple foods which are easily assimilated. But few simple foods are attractive to the appetite. Serve with fruit, fresh or cooked, on ice cream, or with whole milk or cream. At any meal or between meals when the appetite fancies light refreshment. arm Days you long for Simple Foods Quaker PUFFED WHEAT PUFFED RICE Women who wish to stimulate the growth of their hair should use V an Ess Liquid Scalp Massage. A glorious head of strong vigorous hair surely follows its consisâ€" tent use, and consistent use is easy because Van Ese cornes fitted with a patent rubber applicator that feeds the medicament directly to the roots of the hair.

EIRESTONE BUILDS THE ONLY GUMâ€"DIPPED TIRES Balloon Tire Tread Low pressure conditions distribute most of the weight and wear toward the outer edges of the Balloon Tread, so that is where Firestone engineers place most of the rubber. At the direct center is a deep grove, between two narrow flexing rider strips and flanked by additional grooves, which nearly close up when the rubber spreads out as the tire is placed under load. Next come the wide outer rider strips with numerâ€" ous sharpâ€"edge projections for nonâ€"skid qualities. These proâ€" jections are small to permit the tread to yield to irregularities and cling to the road. The carcass of the Balloon Tire must have the qualifications to withstand the extreme flexing which this tread permits. Firestone provides extra strength and endurance by dipping the cords of the carcass in a rubber solution, which completely saturates and insulates every fiber of every cord, insuring the highest degree of economy, safety and comfort.
