TijlsonburK worked hard to secure a counter while Port Dover was a man short and at last D. An derson shot from well out and the puck roiled around Waldick’s pads for a counter. Hicks went to the pen for a trip near the end of the period. Mac Donald shot one out from the corner ■nd Misner converted it, making the Score one a!L No further scoring was done in the period. Port Dover’s combination was improving while the visitors seemed to be slacking off. The second period from the stand point of hockey was a trifle better than the first. Haney made it two for the visitors. Several minutes later D. Andrews shot; Waldick's stick had the wrong angle and the number 3 went up for the visitors on the tally board. No penalties were handed out in this period which was decidedly fast with Tillsonburg getting back to good combination form, while the local developed a roving tendency which frequently left their checks unwatched at critical moments. There was not a great deal to choose between the teams in the third period. Haney went to the pen for getting rough with George Mummery. D. Anderson took a rest for tripping. MacDonald sent a hot one to the boards. Charles Mummery was there for the rebound and Port Dover had two. MacDonald drew a penalty. W. Anderson made the visitors’ tally four by a wicked shot from centre ice and was sent to the pen twice in an effort to eradicate his tripping propensities. The game ended 4 to 2 in favor of the visitors. Referee D. Hicks of Tillsonburg, knows the refereeing game and hand ed out the penalties without fear or favor.

Therefore, when stones arc offered far below regular levels, there is usually a reason' 'frequently not discern ible to the rxxi-profcasional buyer.

Actual detrac tion of the tis*ue take, place becauw of the pressure and the inflammation. The word -rheumati,m“ commonly UKd by the public to refer to any di»- easc of the joint, come, from the Greek word meaning to flow, because it was the Greek belief that the inflam matory substance flowed throughout the body.

MEDITATION Gen. 12: 2: "And thou shalt __ _ blessing." God gave some wonderful promises to Abraham, assuring a heri tage of material and spiritual blessings. And yet. the promise which held for Abraham the greatest possibility of happiness had nothing to do with re- be a ceiving,' but with giving. It was the Eromise that Abraham himself would tcome a source of blessing to others. So often we look upon our fellowship with God from a selfish standpoint. We consider the Christian life as being a means of blessing to us, rather than as fitting us to become a means of blessing to those around us. But after all, the highest good that can come to us is that we may be used as instru ments of good to our associate*. We once heard a man say that he had dis covered a perfectly lovely place in which to worship. There were just a few congenial souls meeting together in harmony and peace, and it was like 1 the very gate of heaven to them. That man had no conception of the meaning of the Christian life. Jesus did not call Hi* disciple* to follow Him that they might have a perfectly lovely time to gether. He called them to service, and that life of service led them into a number of unpleasant places, and caused them some trying experiences. Abraham learned in his day that costs to bc.a blessing. But the cost well worth while. HYMN "Listen! the Master beseecheth. Calling each one by his name; His voice to each loving heart reacheth. Its checrfullevt service to claim.

He also give advice as to the best means of obtaining the co operation of other municipalities in promoting the paving of the 10th line. Rev. H. G. Crozier dealt particu larly with the paving question. From a map which he had drawn he showed the advantages which would accrue if this were done. He stressed the neces sity of relieving the traffic coming from London eastward just as soon as possible, showing also the advan tages which would come to London, Thamesford, Kintore. St. Marys and Stratford if this were done. He point ed out that all the northern part of Western Ontario jsould benefit by making this connecting line between the two highways. Dr. Weir, chairman of the Thames ford Chamber of Commerce, then call ed upon various citizens to speak, all of whom encouraged the effort to get the Provincial Government interested in paving the 10th line. resolution to the effect was unanimously carried.

Propose $200,000 For Pt Burwell Tha Sum Appears in Estimates Total ling On.7W.8Sd Tabled Thursday- »18,000 For Port Stanley. Ottawa, Feb. 10.—The largest item for Western Ontario contained in the main estimate*, presented to the House of Commons last night by the Minister of Finance, is $200,000 for the harbor of Port Burwell. This was part of the public works' figures. Items for Western Ontario are: Goderich, $75300. Kincardine, $43,000. Ixamington, $? 5ft) Pelee Island, pier repairs, $5,400. Port Colborne, $100,000. Port Dover, piers, $50,000. Port Stanley. $16,000. London $1350, cost of a postal tractor- Estimates for the fiscal year 1928- 29 do not show any eveidence of economy in national expenditure. These main estimates for the next fiscal year are nearly $7,500,000 more than the combined main and the sup plementary estimate* for the fiscal year ending March 31*t. Last Parlia ment voted main estimates totalling $254359.413 and to these were added supplementaries. bringing the total ex- Kditure to $866, 071314. The present liament is asked to vote main esti mates amounting to $373,796,856, and if the supplementaries are equal to those for the present fiscal year, there will be an increase in expenditures in expenditures In 1928-29 of $30,000,000. This, despite debt retirement and re funding. which has saved in interest several millions annually. Increase and Decrease The chief increases proposed are pensions. $2,(M3,230; national defence, $2,794,134; national revenue adminis tration. $1,003,073; railways and canals, $544,068; public w^ks. SIXMO.OOO; marine department. $1,675,720; Indians, $366379; agriculture, $614,249, and im migration, $300,000. The only notable decree* is $3,060-, 684 in interest, which is chiefly due to refunding maturing loans at a lower rate of interest. Interest on the public debt is esti- largest item of expenditure and one- third of the total national outlay. Pen sions will cost $40,426353, and postal service $33312.109. Provincial Subsidies Apparently the Government does not intend increasing provincial sub sidies as the only provision for this purpose is the sums allocated the Maritime Provinces. Nor is there any provision made for the rebates to the railways for freight rate reductions in the Maritime Provinces. These will total at least $8,000,000 and will have to be provided for in the plcmentaries. The Dog Poisoner • up- We hear of the dog poisoner in one vicinity and then another and valu able dogs having fallen victims to the dog poisoner"* warped and unnatural mind and those that put out poison for bi’ds come under the same head ing. "Tis foolish, perhaps, to “give our hearts to a dog to tear,- but they arc lovable creatures, so infinitely superior in every way to the people who poison them that we can perhaps be forgiven if we feel that the world could so much belter have spared the poisoner than the dog. The dog radi ates good qualities; the poisoner radi ate* evil ones. The dog makes the neighborhood a jollier place to live in; the poisoner fills people with dread and suspicion. We should in finitely rather live next door to the mangiest mongrel than to a poisoner. In fact, we should rather live next door to an active and able-bodied skunk than to a dog-poisoner.

Try a Pound Today, SSc Lb. have been storms and floods in Eng land. but we do not know anything about them. Here by the north east coast there have been high winds, which took off some chimney tops and did a small amount of damage to some of the roofs of buildings. We have also had high tides, which en croached on the cliffs, but we have had no damage to our home or sur roundings. either by water or gales. We had a few inches of snow before Christmas, which the young people enjoyed, they had such fun snow balling each other and were so sorry when it thawed, after a few days it all disappeared. But it froze over shallow water so they were sliding and skating for a day or^wo and were so delight ed, and were skating New Years day. One man came along and said we have not been able to skate for thirty year*; but the next morning it was thawing and there has not been any ice since. The floods were in the lea- la nds. something like the flats around Tillsonburg. A friend of our* motored from Kings Lynn. Norfolk, just into •Vale*, on the seventh of January, and ■.-turned on the ninth, about eight hour* ride each way. They had no rouble and said the roads were splen did.

Our potatoes, carrots etc., have been kept in a shed all winter, and are not frozen. So it is not so bad after all in good old England.

And this Is quite in order and absolutely justified. We know the require ments of our own business as to quantity required; we have, by experience and actual practice, concluded that a certain grade, color or quality suits our purpose best. We have made our choice, and usually know pretty well what we want and how we want it. Co-operation in securing this can best be obtained from the home printer, for it is his desire, In fact his duty, to see to it that he secures for you Just what you want, and that he carries this regularly in stock. In the printing, also, your wishes can be carried out by consultation and co-operation. The carpet-bagger, however, will always try to sell many times your ordinary requirements; he will most likely try to work ofl ■ job lot of paper. And a« for style of work, .Ince there is no chance to consult, and as no proof is submitted, the customer must take it as supplied, regardless of his own ideas.

He was compelling himself by main force of will to complete some papers that would be necessary for a com ing suit on the morrow—papers which required concentration of brain and steady thought—yet as his pen tarri ed along the paper, he could not but be conscious that his unruly thought* would wander.
