Helen E. Pipher of Newmar- 
ket, charged by Gertrude Widdi- 
field with assault, pleaded not 
guilty.. 

• "My mother was looking for 3 
ttiVl, and I knew Mrs. Pipher's 
daughter was looking for work, 
so I called Ruth in on Saturday 
night, Sept. 21, to ask her about 
it." testified the complainant. | 
"Mrs. Pyiher came along and told 
her daughter to gel out. She 
slipped me and scratched me. I 
called Constable Sloss in. I have 
had trouble with this woman be- 
fore, and reported it to the police. 
I wanted her to leave me alone 
and keep quiet. I just warded 

off the blow. My mother saw 

the whole thing. Ruth was just 
shaking aU over when she went 
out." 

"Mrs. Pipher grabbed at my 
daughter, bruising and scratch- 
ing her," stated Mrs. Bennitz. 
:4 She did an awful lot of swear- 
ing." 

"I was called about 10.15/' 
testified Constable Sloss. "I 
found Mrs. Widdifield crying. 
She showed me a bruise on her 
right arm. The left side of her 
face was red. I questioned Mrs. 
Pipher and she stated that she 
slapped Mrs. Widdifield's face, 
but didn't take hold of her arm." 

"To start with I have had quite 
a bit of trouble with Mrs. Widdi- 
field/' said the accused. "When 
my son was going overseas she 
came in my] house and said, 'Heil 
Hitler/ and the things she said 
about the British and French — " 

Crown Attorney Mathews in- j 
terrupted Mrs. Pipher and told 
her not to go into ancient hist- 
ory. He explained to the court 
that Mr. Bennitz was born in 

i 

Germany, had been naturalized 
and was a good citizen, but Mrs. 
Pipher had: been spreading rum- 
ours about them.

worthwhile 
women. 

Under Mrs. C. F. Doane, Yongo 

M the Newmarket branch of 

Women's Institute was organized. 
Mrs. Doane was first president. 
and ls how a life member. Mrs. 
C. F. Doane and Mrs. E. N, Pen- 
rose share the honor of being the 
two women who have been 
members of the Newmarket 
branch for the greatest length of 
time. 

The organization has grown 
tremendously since that time, 
and is now universal. The Wo- 
men's Institute is the second 
largest organization in the world. 

It is a non-political and non- 
sectarian organization, and is 
therefore able to function har- 
moniously. The motto has al- 
ways been "For Home and 
Country." Through this : organ- 
ization much has been done to 
raise the standards of living in 
the rural sections. ] 

The headquarters of the On- 
tario Women's Institute are at 
the Parliament Building, Toronto 
and is under the Ontario Dept. 
of Agriculture. 

Each year a project isj spon- 
sored by the government and is 
made available to each Institute 
branch in the district. One dele- 
gate from each branch attends 
the course, and on the completion 
of this course, the delegate re- 
turns to her branch and imparts

sary of printing, and thLs week Ls 
Weekly Newspaper Week across 
Canada. - w 



Many ladies have joined groups 
in town, for sewing and knitting, 
and it is thought the public 
might be interested in knowing 
about the splendid work being 
done and given some idea of the 
magnitude of the task of the Red 
Cross Society. r j 

Under the leadership of Mrs. 
Spence, of St. Paul's W.A., this 
group has made: 10 suits of py- 
jamas, 5 box linings, also 26 
pieces of box linings, 18 pneu- 
monia jackets, 24 suits pyjamas, 
13 handkerchiefs, 24 towels, 12 
hospital gowns, 1 surgeon's 
gown. 

The Catholic Women's League, 
under the leadership of Mrs. 
Buckler, submit the following 
list: 2 quilts, 11 nightgowns, 5 
baby gowns, 38 prs. bloomers, 12 
baby jackets, 3 prs. girl's pyjam- 
as, 2 prs. men's pyjamas, 4 doz. 
handkerchiefs, 22 girl's dresses, 
8 skirts, 51 prs. socks, 8 prs. 
wristlets, 9 refugee sweaters, 1 
pr. mitts. 

Miss Lillian Daniel's group: 
50 diapers, I baby jacket, 3 baby 

slips. This work was accomp- 
lished in a couple of evenings, 
and during the summer they 
have made many surgical dress- 
ings. 

Mrs. Scott heads a group, who 
call themselves "We Are Six." 
composed of the following ladies: 
Mrs. Geer, Mrs. Harvey Terry, 
Mrs. Joe Cribbery Mrs. Frances 
McIIale, Mrs. Ivan Monkman. 
Their contribution recently Is: 
8 nightgowns, 8 prs. bloomers, 30 
doz handkerchiefs. 

The Christian Church ladies 
have made: 20 prs. pyjamas, 16 

doz. handkerchiefs, 2 quilts, 17 
towels. 

Trinity United Church ladies 
helped with box linings. 

Over and above these groups 
are the regular workers, who so 
faithfully carry on week in and 
week out, at the Red Cross rooms 
sewing and knitting. 



Aid. Frank Bowser had to 
walk to work yesterday morn 
ing. When Frank tried to start 
his car. he found that some one 
had helped himself to all the gas 
during the night. A mighty 
mean trick to play on one of our 
town fathers. 



EVANGELINE AUXILIARY 

i 

The regular meeting of the 
Evangeline Auxiliary of the W\ 
M.S. will be held in Trinity 
Sunday School rooms on Tuesday 
evening, October 8th, at 8 p.m. 
This will be our Autumn Thank- 
offering meeting and we arc 
looking forward to an interesting 
message from our guest speaker. 



UNITED INTERCESSION 
SERVICES] 

Interest is deepening in the 
midweek intercession services 
which are being held in the dif- 
ferent churches in town. Last ev- 
ening there was a very good at- 
tendance in the Friends Meeting 
House, and next week the meet- 
ing will be held in the Christian 
Congregational Church.

TEST HOLE SUNK IN 
NOVEMBER IS FIND 



For some time Engineer 
ttachar, the water and light com- 
mittee and Reeve Lundy have 
contended that there was more 
water to be had near the water- 
works. ThLs week Mr. Boadwin 
of Sutton was* employed for a 
day and a half with his equip- 
ment, and the result is that the 
town has an additional supply of 
50 gallons per minute, or 72,000 
gallons a day. This is a good 
30,000 more than needed for the 
military camp. | 

The new well was the first 
test hole sunk by the Internat- 
ional Water Supply Co., last 
November, and It does not affect 
the wells in the vicinity, or the 
Cotter Street flow across the 
pond. The Colter Street \yell 
flows at the rate of 31 gallons per 
minute, and with air pressure 64 
gallons a minute. j 

Mr. Rachar is confident that, 
with a ten-inch casing and pump 
the new well would produce 100 
gallons a minute. There is only 
a two-inch pipe and a five-Inch 
casing on it at present. | 

Thus it would seem that the 
town's water problem Ls settled 
for the time being at least.

THE SMALL TOWN REPORTER 



This is weekly newspaper week. To-day from coast 
to coast, the weekly press will blare forth with one voice 
reminding you people that the small town weekly that you 
so often laugh about is a mighty influence in your com- 
munity, and as an important a public utility as the electric 
power, telephone or radio. We are not going; to toot our 
horn unduly. For the past twelve years now we have 
heen endeavouring, through the columns of the Express- 
Herald, to present the news of the town and district, to 
give support to every worthwhile community enterprize 
and to make suggestions we thought were in the best 
interests to all. Fundamentally your editor is a small town 

guy, who does not care for the hustle and bustle of the, city 
streets, but enjoys his work of chronicling the daily events 

of his birthplace. Born on the Main Street, where the 

Post Office now stands, we love the old town and the 
people who make their abode here. Knowing 
practically every family in town and the sur- 
rounding district, our constant endeavour is not alone to 

print the things you want printed, but to keep out the 
things which, while having a certain news value, would 
hurt the feelings of you or yours. This is true of the vast 
majority of weekly editors. 

Yes, we believe the weekly press has a definite spot 
in the life of the community on a par with the church, 
school and industry. And we know that you enjoy our 
weekly letter whether you tell us in so many words or 
not. 

I It Ls our hope that the passing years find us at our 
desk recording the births and marriages of your children's 
children, and that when the time comes for your servant 
to lay down his pen and write '30/ that the editor of 
The Era will be able to depict in glowing terms the efforts 
of this small town reporter. 



THE WEEKLY NEWSPAPERS 



There can be no blackout of democracy while the 
Canadian Weekly Newspapers counter-attack propaganda 
with a barrage of well-aimed facts! 

As custodians of a Free Press, we the publishers, 
editors and staff member of this newspaper enlist all our 
forces to fight for recognition of this vital issue: A Free 
Press and Democracy are inseparable. Violate one and 
you crush the other. Silence one and you destroy the very 
foundation of the other. 

1 We have tasted one bitter fact from the cauldrons of 
totalitarianism into which have already been poured 
millions of live sacrifices: dictators don't begin by using 
the sword to delude their people; they first use the pen, 
making the columns of their newspapers the mouth-piece 
for their ill-directed lies and empty promises. 

But such delusion Ls not for those of us who are 
honestly, fearlessly, wholeheartedly Canadian. Thanks 
to a Free Press,- and a courageous and wisely directed 
weekly press, the Canadian people are the best informed 
in the world. Freedom of the Press Ls guaranteed to the 
people by our government and it shall not perish as long as 
the people maintain a Free Press! 

Stand with the publishers of Canada's weekly news- 
papers in the battle of democracy. With a Free Press as 
your most powerful weapon against dictatorial depotisni, 
there shall be NO SURRENDER for* Canada and 
Canadians. ! 

A Free Press constitutes the first line of defence in the 
battle for the maintenance of democracy. The weekly 



newspaper is an all-important factor in the upbuilding of 
the nation because it has such an intimate touch with the 
homes in the smaller communities throughout Canada. 

YOU COULDN'T READ THIS! 

- 
■ 

The 500th anniversary of the invention of printing by 
Johann Gutenberg is being celebrated during the present 
year of 1940, stimulated by the various trade associations 
and graphic arts groups. 

Printing has become as common-place in our lives as 
the rising and setting of the sun, yet it plays a tremendous 
role in the lives of every one of* us. 

You are awakened each morning by an alarm clock 
which undoubtedly has a printed dial. You arise from 
bed and dress in clothes that were undoubtedly bought 
under the stimulus of printed advertisements. Your 
weekly newspaper was made possible by Gutenberg's in- 
vention of printing. The cereal' on your breakfast table 
and the brand of coffee you drink were undoubtedly 
bought because of merits attributed to them in printed 
advertising. If you board a train or ride a street car to 
work, you hand the conductor a printed ticket or transfer. 
And it is more than likely that the selection of car, if you 
drive to work, was determined by the statements made in 
print. 

Imagine what chaos there would be in any office or 
factory if every piece of printing used in industry and 
commerce were suddenly taken away. Modern, inventions 
which we have come to look upon as necessities could 
never have become so widely publicized nor so highly de- 
veloped, had it not been for the service of the printing 
press. 

It is thus fitting that during the current year 1910 we 
should pay homage to Gutenberg, the inventor of printing, 
the man who gave mankind its choicest gift. Gutenberg's 
invention has even made it possible for you to read this 
editorial — a simple task which few people could have ac- 
complished before the days of printing and rise of popular 
education.

October 1, 1915 



EVERY WEEK IN THE YEAR 



* 



Here is what John Edwin Price ,(he noted American 

columnist had to say in reference to the service rendered 
by the local weekly newspaper. 

You had hardly let your first yell on this terrestrial 
sphere before the local editor ordered the fact of your 
arrival announced to a baby-loving world. 

When you reached the age of three or four and had 
your first real birthday party with invited guests, your 
friend, the editor told all and sundry who was there and 
what a fuss they made over you. « 

When you got on the honor roll at grade school he let 
all your admiring friends and neighbors know about it. If 
you got into any minor scrapes he apparently forgot about 
them as soon as he was told for he wanted to play up the 
things which might make you great. 

AH through your high school course he was keenly 
watching to see if you did anything worthy of note in 
athletics, letters or debate. And when you finally grad- 
uated he again seized upon the opportunity to put your 
name in print. 

If you decided to go to work then instead of going on 
to university he heralded the fact in such a manner that 
made any prospective employers realise that here was an 
ambitious lad who wasn't leaning unnecessarily on the 
folks. He wanted all whom it might concern to know that 
if work was to be done, here was a live-wire all set. 

When the supreme object of your heart's desire was 
won your editor-friend seemed to know about it almost as 
soon as the *Iucky" girl and warned all other aspirants to 
her sole attention to lay off as he printed the announce- 
ment of your engagement. Once more you were the con- 
quering hero, or thought so. The girl may have had other 
ideas on the subject. 

If after that you accomplished anything worthy of 
note, the world was told in letters bold: 

When those near and dear to you were, by death, 
taken out on (1 The Great Adventure," the Chief of the 
Columns apparently forgot their vices, and proceeded to 
laud their virtues and remind the world of their fine family 
connections — including you. 

When illness overtook you he let all the neighbors 
know so that mayhap the power of their prayers could be 
added to the forces of medicine. 

- And some day (should hpeehance outlive you as he 
has so many others) he, being kind and faithful unto the 
end, will once more use good paper and ink for you. He 
will probably tell mankind far and wide that one has 
passed who was a useful and a worthwhile addition to the 
race, that you have gone to join the glorious company who 
have become the "guests of God." 

Yes, from the cradle of birth to the casket of death, 
the Home Town Editor Ls your friend. He puts you on the 
map, and if you are worthy, helps to keep you there.

LITTLE steam lifts the lid of your tea-kettle. A lot of steam drives 
rains, machinery. Your bank deposit may be little, but it combines with 
millions of others to make a lot of "steam". It helps to run the nation's 
machinery of production, marketing, employment, business. It is important 
indeed to the country's war financing and war-time effort. The money 
is yours yet it helps provide the credit necessary to move the goods and 
services of the nation. <£ Canada's chartered banks thus perform func- 
tions of great usefulness. They receive the deposits of millions of Cana- 
dians, and extend credit to individuals, governments, businessmen and 
marketing organizations. The small depositor is important to the banks. 
The "little fellow", popularly so-called, is welcomed by any bank, as a 
Customer. 



In war, as in peace, Canada's Chartered Banks maintain, uninter- 
rupted, their useful services — safeguarding depositors' (unds; 
facilitating the nation's business — looking forward to peace 
with freedom as the only sure basis of enduring prosperity.

Five hundred pheasants were 
let loose in the Townships of 
Markham and Whitchurch this 
week by the Dept. of Games and 
Fisheries of the Province of 
Ontario. These birds, added to 
those uow roaming the district 
should provide excellent shoot- 
ing for the annual pheasant hunt 
which is set for Friday, October 
25 and 26 next. 

- It will be the first hunt in 
Whitchurch since the township 

was made a game preserve this 
year, but for Markham -Township 
it will be the fourth season since 
the regulations of a game pre- 
serve were applied. 

The young birds were brought 
in crates from the hatcheries, and 
let free in small Hocks adjacent 
to various woods where they 
would have a chance of covering 
in their new surroundings.

As. the gravel cost 50c per yard

price is not regarded as very 
attractive :• for long hauls, but 
those truckers who make (he

short hauls which is calculated to 
average out a fair price. 

It is expected that between

siderable amount with the grader

TELLS OF JOURNEY FROM 

NEWMARKET IN 1880 

Paul Rice in the HunLsvillc 
Forester writes: 4t Wc have a bet- 
ter conception of the condition 
of the road between Graven hurst 

and Himtsvillc in 1880 after 
listening to Win. Payne, who 
drove a horse from Newmarket 
to HunLsvillc in October, 1880. 
'Loaded on the wagon/ said Mr. 

Payne, 'were two pigs, 12 hens 

and a rooster, and at night the 
horse was tethered to a tree 
While I slept under the waggon. 
At Allen-wille it snowed seven 
inches in one night and we were 
delayed for a couple more days. 
" 'On reaching Huntsville, the 
bridge was raised up to allow 
"The Northern" to pass through, 
so our belongings were' ferried 
across on a scow, and we pro- 
ceeded to Jerry's Lake. We 
crossed the creek to the Kalian- 
tyne grist-mill, and on to Jerry's 
Lake. Here we had to unload, 
and transport our livestock and 
baggage by rowboat to the other 
side of the lake. From here we 
had to carry everything to our 
new home on Winter's Rapids on 
the Big East River, even the 
pigs. Sinclair township was then 
settled like a town, with some- 
one on every lot'."

this week report the sale of 100 
acres in Whitchurch township, 
being the fourteenth lot in the 
fourth concession and located 
close to the historic village of 
Vandorf, east of Aurora. 

This farm, located in the once 
noted white pine timber belt, 
was originally the Atkinson 
estate. Senica Baker, one of the 
early Whitchurch settlers and a 
lifelong resident of the district, 
recalls that white pine trees 
averaging 30 to the acre and con- 
taining about 1,000 feet of lum- 
ber per tree covered much of this 
district. . > 

This early timber was in de- 
mand for masts and spars on 
ocean-going vessels and was 
drawn by horses to Frenchman's 
Ray or down through Scarboro 
township on the old Mast road 
to the Rouge river and from 
there floated to Lake Ontario. 

About 15 acres of the old At- 
kinson farm is still wooded and 
adjoining this is a 10 -room tim- 
ber residence, two basement 
barns and several other build- 
ings. The vendor Is Percy Allin, 
of Aurora, and the purchaser G. 
Hoshel, of Richmond 11111/ who 
recently sold his Bayvlew Ave. 
farm to G. 0. Leltch, of Toronto,

W.M.S. HOLD MISSIONARY 
RALLY AT SUTTON 



Miss Winnifrcd Thomas Is 
Guest Speaker 



The annual rally of the north- 
ern section of Toronto Centre 
Fresbyterial Woman's Missionary 
Society, of the United Church, 
was held at Sutton West Wed- 
nesday, Sept, 25. 

In the absence of Airs. W. J. 
Thompson, vice-pres. of this sec- 
tion, Miss Annie Bishop, prcs. of 
Toronto Centre Fresbyterial, 
presided. 

Mrs. O. W. Wood, Toronto, pre- 
sented "The Challenge and 
Opportunity of Special Objects" 
in the W.M.S. work. Miss Col- 
lins of Sutton contributed a 
beautiful solo, "At the Name of 
Jesus Every Knee Shall Bow." 

Miss Winnifrcd Thomas, Gen- 
eral Secretary of the Dominion 
Hoard, was introduced by Miss 
Bishop, as the speaker of the 
afternoon. Miss Thomas spoke 
on "The Need of Missionary 
Work in Time of War," stressing 
the demands of our country and 
of our church. 

"A time of crisis calls out for 
greater loyalty and service." The 
best service we can give to our 
country is to carry on the work 
of the church. The deepest needs 
arc those which only Christ and 
his church can meet. There Is 
no other medium in Canada to 
bring various groups to gather 
into a real national union. We 
are fighting that we may live as 
a free nation within the British 
Empire. - 

It is essential .that the Church 
of Christ be strong and vigorous. 
We are committed to carry on in 
Christ's World Church, and in 
this way may contribute most to 
our country. 

Rev. Mr. Anderson brought 
the meeting to a close, after 
which a happy social hour was 
spent with the Sutton West aux- 
iliary as hostesses.

tion present from churches from

BRITISH-ISRAEL 

Last Sunday evening .the 
monthly evening meeting was 
held in the Strand Theatre' at 
8.30, after the evening services 
at the churches were over, Mr. 
Edgar Webb of Toronto being 
the speaker. His topic was 
"Britain's Great Ally," and j he 
gave a stirring address to his 
many listeners. I ! 

Mr. Webb was handicapped jby 
a severe cold, but he gave a 
splendid address covering the 
whole situation, and his leMstr, 
definite line of thinking and 
reasoning left no doubt in his 
hearers' minds that Britain 1 is 
indeed Israel, and of the ultim- 
ate result since God is Britain's 
Great Ally. 

Mr, Webb will go far in British 
Israel circles, and as always, was 
a welcome visitor to Newmarket. 

Rev. E. J. Spriugett has return- 
ed from his western trip and will 
be heard in person over CFRB 
next Sunday. j 

The Sunday afternoon meet- 
ings are held in the Presbyterian 
Church at 3.30.

JUDGMENT RESERV- 
ED ON LIQUOR 
.. • CHARGE 



Continued from Page 1, Col. 1 



I 






Magistrate Woodliffe bound 
both Mrs. Widdifield and Mrs. 
Pipher over in the sum of $50, 
to keep the peace for one year. 

A charge of swearing arising 
out of the same case against Paul 
Bennitz was dismissed. 

.Mrs. Pipher, the complainant, 
testified that after the trouble 
with Mrs. Widdifield was ovcr< 
and she was going home, her 
daughter called to her that she 
was wanted. The accused came 
up to her swearing, and told her 
to leave her hands off his 
daughter. 

Mr. Bennitz denied swearing, 
but stated that he merely warn- 
ed the woman to leave his daugh- 
ter alone. When an older 
daughter of Mrs. Pipher's, who 
was standing with a three- 
months-old baby in her arms, 
asked her mother to go home, 
Mrs. Pipher struck her across the 
face. 

••When she called me a fool, I 
hit her a little slap," admitted 
the complainant. 

Eleven-year-old Margaret 
Swan was the <mly witness call- 
ed. "1 was just going home and 
heard the racket and savs to my- 
self 'What's going on?' and went 
;lown to see," testified Margaret; 

She stated that she didn't hear 
any swearing. . 

Harry Kitchen of Schomberg, 
charged by Constable Flctiry with 
driving while intoxicated and 
careless driving, and charged by- 
Constable Gus. Farquhar with if-' 
legal possession, pleaded not! 
guilty at Newmarket Police ! 
Court on Tuesday. j 

"On Monday, Sept. 16th, from 
information received, I went to 
Schomberg about 6.40 p.m., tes- 
tified Constable Fleury. "About! 
9.40 p.m. I saw a ear proceeding 
south on Main Street of Schom- 
berg, wavering a bit. I called the 
driver by name and told him to 
stop, and he stepped on the gas 
and pulled ijito the laneway. I 
jumped on the right side of* the' 
car and took the keys out. Kit- 
chen got out and leaned up a-« 
gainst the car. On the front seat i 
of the car I found a part bottle 
of liquor. 1 noticed alcohol on 
his breath and he was in no con- 
dition to drive a car. I took him 
to Aurora to be examined and by 
the time we got to the doctor, 
which was three-quarters of an 
hour later, some of his intoxica- 
tion had disappeared. Constable 
Farquhar was with me at the 
time." 

"That is a bad laneway he 
turned into? asked defence coun- 
sel W. I). Horkins of Toronto. 

"Yes." 

"And he didn't bump into any- 
thing going in?" ? 

"No." 

"Hut yon did?" 

"No, that was going out." 

"Then he made a better job of 
it than you did." 

"Did it occur to you to have [ 
him examined by a doctor in 
Schomberg?" j I 

"He's pretty well known there." | 

Constable Farquhar gave the 
same evidence as Constable 
Fleury and swore that Kitchen 
was under the influence of liquor/ 
He said that he suggested not 
taking Kitchen to the home 
doctors because he didn't believe 
they would care, to have the job. 

"The accused was brought to - 
my oflice between 10.30 and 10.45," 
testified Dr. Williams. "I tested; 
his powers of co-ordination. He 
had the odour of alcohol on his 
breath and admitted drinking. 
His power of co-ordination was 
not bad. He walked fairly well.! 
There was no particular slur on 
his speech. He answered the 
questions I asked him fairly well. 
In my opinion he was under the 
influence of alcohol, and alcohol 
and gasoline do not mix. When a 
person is under the influence of 
liquor he should not drive a car." 

Kitchen stated that there was 
considerable play in the steering 
wheel which might cause the ear 
to waver. He had just had about 
an ounce and a half of liquor and 
was not intoxicated. He had also 
had a couple of pints of beer in 
the morning. 

"Did your wife try to stop you 
from going?" asked Crown At- 
torney Mathews. 

"No," replied accused. 

"Didn't she tell you that yon 
were in no condition to take the 
car out?" 

"No, not then. She might have 
in the morning."

"Giving Pleasure" 

When you are sick and He in 
bed, while dismal thoughts Hit 
through your head, though eyes 
and nose and bones all sore, and 
water from your eyes does pour, 
yet you can conjure up a .smell, 
when friendly deeds your 
thoughts beguile. For to the 

bed where you lie still, with first 
a fever, then a chill, comes such 
a glowing, lovely sight, you feel 
a thrill of real delight, for there's 
a glowing gorgeous mass of 
autumn Mowers, that soon must

The anniversary services held

In the evening the Rev. Burton

left with you a sense of friend- 
ship sweet and true. 

Or maybe its a box of fruit, 
that seems to go right to the 
root of that uncomfortable sen- 
sation, that kills all feeling of 
elation, and makes you wonder. 
If at all, you've left one friend 
great or small. But when the 
peaches, blushing red. and or- 
anges glisten from their bed. 
mid grapes of black and green 
and white, you just can't help but 
feel delight. 

And though your bones may 
ache on still, you feel some back- 
bone in your will, and think that 
maybe some day soon, perhaps 
before another moon, you'll pull 
yourself with might and main 
from the "slough of despond" 
again, and this great miracles 
been wrought because some 
friend or neighbor thought, that 
they would do a kindly deed, 
which is indeed a neighbor's 
creed. And so, the smallest kind- 
ness done, can brighten life just 
like the sun. 



A farmer had a city lad work 
for him. The lad was called one 
winter morning before dawn and 
told to harness the mule. He did 
not light a lantern, and in the 
dark he didn't notice that one of 
the cows was in the stable with 
the mule. The farmer, impatient 
at delay, shouted: "Billy! Billy! 
What are you doing? 



ADVERTISED GOODS 



People know more about 
advertised goods than about 
those that are not advertised. 
If you ask what Is a good 
thing to buy for some need, 
people will usually quote 
some widely advertised arti- 
cle' that everyone has heard 
of. If you ask about some 
competing article that is not 
advertised, they will usually 
say they never heard of It, 
consequently they are not 
likely to buy it. 

People not merely buy the 
advertised goods they have 
heard of. but they are more 
likely to buy at the stores 
that are well advertised. 
These concerns appear con- 
stantly before the public eye 
by their widely read notices. 
A concern gets a big advan- 
tage over its competitors by 
the relatively small expense 
of advertising.

Somewhere on the Water, 

Sept. 3, 1940. 
Dear Mother and Family,— 

Well, folks, we arc well on our 
way, and expect to land to-mor 
row or Thursday. I hope you 
are all in the best of health. " 

How is 'Cuddles?" I hope she 
is a good girl and that John and 
Bruce arc good boys. 1 guess 
Ferg. is still working and grow- 
ing as much as ever. 

Well mom, how is dad doing? 

We have a nice time on the 
train, and the food was extra 
good, just like the Royal York. 

We are on "D" deck on the 
boat, and four of us in a cabin a 
good size. We have hoi and cold 
water. The beds arc real good, 
and we sleep all day and night. 
We have one hour of drill and 
life-boat drill every day. Some 
of our boys from "R" Coy. were 
taken off the boat the. day we left 
as one or two of them had scarlet 
fever, and I guess the twenty or 
so of them are pretty vexed. 

AVe left dock on Tuesday, Aug. 
27, at 2 p.m. They gave us all a 
L'l, 50 cigarettes, a chocolate bar 

and a package of gum, so thai is 

pret'y w*4 The cigs. were from 
the Y.M.C.A. The money out of 
our pay, of course. We got SI.10 
for our £. I invested ttvne in 
cigarettes as they cost 30c for 50 
on the boat, and sky high over- 
seas. Cigarettes worth 3d on 
boat cost about 6d on land over- 
seas, so I think a did right. 

American cigarettes cost 15c 
for 20, so they are cheaper here 
on boat than in Canada, but very 
dear overseas. 1 wasn't sea-sick 
on the trip, but I had a tooth out 
last week and feel O.K. now. I 
have two more to come out when 
I land. The water has been like 
a small pond all the way across, 
but its kind of rough and very 
foggy today. We had six troop 
ships, one battleship, two de- 
stroyers all the way from Can- 
ada, but today we met a convoy 
from Britain and there are five or 
six more, but can't see them for 
fog. 

Well, I guess that's all the news

Dear Sister Hilda,— 

It gives me great pleasure in

same. 

I am glad that you received the 
cards that Reg. and 1 sent you, 
and thai you like them. I hope 
you do not think that I have for- 
gotten you, for I have not, for I 
always think of you all at home 
and wish that I was home with 
you all. 

We are having Very cool wea- 
ther in the day time, and it gets 
cold at night, for I am writing 
you this letter with my overcoat 
on, for I am on night duty tikis 
week, and we are still in the 
open and sleep in tents yet., 

-Welti how to give you a little 
hint of what it is like over here 
while 1 am writing you, the Ack* 
Ack guns are firing, and the 
planes are overhead, but IVey do 
not worry me any, ami don't yon, 
for I am alright, and 1 know you 

are. 

1 have hod a good time lately, 
as you can see by mother's let- 
ters, for 1 have been out to tea a 

lot lately. 

^ I am glad that you had a good 
time when you were up at Bob's 
and Jennie's with mother and 
dad/ Well Haw, I received a 
letter from Libbie and Norm., 
and they were all fine at the time 
of writing. 

. Well sis, old dear, I think you 
are a good girl to take the money 
you earned and bought your 
shoes with it instead of spending 
it foolishly. You tell Alary and 
Grace that 1 hope they get a job 
at Dixon's, or one some place 
else. 

Well sis, I will have to bring 
my letter to a close, for 1 want to 
write to mother, and leave some 
news for her. So 1 will say so 
long for now. Oh, yes, you are 
the fourth handsome Harman of

J than pleased to hear from you. 
Reg. and Jack have told me so 
much about you and the family. 
They came on leave in July, for 
seven days, and 1 am sure they 
enjoyed themselves. I used to let 
them sleep as long as they liked 
in the mornings, and they really 
enjoyed the food. 1 did my best 
for them and gave them a good 
wash-up with the socks, etc. 

Reg. used to make me laugh 
when he told me how he washed 
his shirt. They were good boys 
Mrs. Harman ,and behaved them- 
selves well. They sure are two 
sons to be proud of. I haven't 
heard from them since they went 
back, but they were expected to 
be moved, so perhaps that is 
why. 

1 should like to send my kind 
regards to Mrs. K. Harman and 
mamy, hoping they are both well. 
Reg. showed me all the snaps of 
you and the family, and the baby 
looks a fine little fellow. 

I do wish this wicked war 
would end. We are just begin- 
ning to realize here there is a 
war on. We get the' German 
planes over here, and the sirens 
go, and we have to get up some- 
times from 12 o'clock until 3 in 
the morning; and go in the air- 
raid shelter, which we have in 
the garden. 1 have to wrap the 
children in blankets. We have 
no time to dress. Bombs have 
been dropped quite near, we hear 
them quite plain. 

They are building air raid shel- 
ters in the streets now. 1 am 
sure it makes you dread the 
winter coming. 

Well, Mrs. Harman, you will 
see I have enclosed two snaps of 
your boys, which I took in the 
garden the day they were going 
back to camp. I think they are 
very good, so now I will close 
my letter, hoping that God will 
spare your boys and bring them 
safe home to you, and give you 
health and strength to welcome 
them, so good-bye for now. 1 
should like to hear again from 
you soon. 

Your sincerely, 

Mrs. Britten. 



Somewhere in Iceland, 

Sept. 3, 1940. 
Dear Mother: 

Was real glad to hear from you 
so soon again. The mail just 
came in about five minutes ago, 
the second in two weeks. 

It was real nice of you to think 
of Phil, and I expect a parcel 
would be greatly appreciated by 
him. He has been temporarily 
placed in Brigade H.Q., but his 
address is the same as mine, ex- 
cept for his number, which is 
B67055. 

Everything is coming along 
fine up here, and there is abso- 
lutely no cause whatsoever to 
worry. As yet, we are sleeping 
in tents, but expect to be moved 
into huts anytime now. 

Yesterday (Sunday) we had a 
parade to commemorate the first 
anniversary of the Royal Regt. 
on active service. There was a 
speech by Major Jones, the sec- 
ond in command, and he spoke 
for the colonel, who Is in the 
hospital. 

Helen must be getting to be a 
pretty good driver (not that she 
was otherwise) by now. She 
certainly is getting plenty of 
practice, driving up to Sudbury 
and everything. 

By the way, tell Winnie I am 
sorry for not writing, but will 
write sometime this week. We

Somewhere in England, 

Sept. 10, 1940. 
Dear Mother and Dad, — 

Just thought 1 would write and 
let you know we are line. We 
just got back from our five-day 
landing leave, and we had a 
wonderful time. Our cousins 
were very glad to see us, and 
treated us wonderful. 

In Kanbery a lot of the people 
had never seen a Canadian, and 
most of them had never seen any 
Scotch Canadian, as they* call us. 
One of our cousins works for the 
two old maids who own and run 
the Brown Cake Shop, where the 
famous Hanbery cakes come 
from, so when they heard we 
were from Canada, they asked us 
to come and see the place. 

It's an old, old place, built in 
the year 1G38. They showed us 
the old fireplace and ovens, and 
told us all the history. Our cous- 
ins live in villages just outside of 
Banbery, and one is the oldest 
and quaintest place you ever saw. 

We have a few thatched -roofs 
in England, but over half the 
houses are like that in this vil- 
lage. It has a very old church, 
but in the other village, there 
is a church built in the year 
1300. So you can see that it was 
a very interesting place, besides 
the people being so nice. All 
the people were nice to its down 
there. 

The streets and highways are 
all so narrow, and they never 
run straight. 

This is about all the news that 
1 can think of now. So long, 

Jim and Ross Blencowe.

JUDGMENT RESERV- 
ED ON LIQUOR 
CHARGE 






(Continued from Page 1, Col. 7) 
i This case was remanded to 
October 8th for judgment. 

Clarence Scdore of Keswick, 
pleaded guilty to a charge of 
failing to register motor vehicle 
and not guilty to a charge ot 
careless driving. 

4, On Sunday, September 15th f 
at 2 a.m., in company with Con- 
stable Rye, I was at the | approach 
to the Richmond booth at Jer- 
sey," testified Constable Carl 
Morton. "The accused was across 
the road at Cameron's booth. 
This spot is well lighted and I 
had a clear view. I -observed a 
1927 Chevrolet parked on the 
west side of the highway. Clar- 
ence Scdore got in the car, also 
Ross Curtiss and two ladies. One 
of the ladies sat between Scdore 
and CurtLss and the other on 
Curtiss 1 lap. We intended to fol- 
low this car. Scdore backed out 
and started to drive south. He 
just went a few feet when he 
crashed into a car driven by 
Clark Grieve of Agincourt, who 
was on his own side of the road 
going north. Sedore lost control 
of the car and sideswiped Grieve's 
car, badly damaging it. Sedore 
had been drinking." i 

"I was just going north to the 
Cottage, had crossed the bridge 
and Sedore came right over, tak- 
ing the front fender and running 
board oil. and damaging the 
door," stated Clark Grieve. "1 was 
on my right hand side of the 
road." I 

l on-stable Rye corroborated 

Constable Morton's evidence, but 

stated that the accident took 
place on the north side of tin: 
bridge. ' _ I 

"I started on my own side of 
the road and saw ibis car com- 
ing/* said accused. "His lights 
were so bright 1 eoulclu't see 
where 1 was going. It was rain- 
ing and these two girls asked us 
for a ride home, otherwise 1 
wouldn't have taken theni." 

This case was adjourned a 
week in order for accused to 
bring another witness in. 

A charge of assault i against 
Mrs. Lucy Carlisle of the Town- 
ship of Whitchurch, was! dismis- 
sed. The 'evidence in this case 
was heard two weeks ago. This 
week Jean Cruickshank ] of Oak 
Ridges, came forward and gave 
a voluntary statement. 

"Mrs. Rich was not hit at all," 
she slated, ''The evidence 1 gave 
two weeks ago was not true. Sirs. 
Rich told me to say t h a 1 Mrs. 
Carlisle hit her. I did' it to save 
her. Mrs. Rich rubbed her shoul- 
der to make the marks. Its been 
worrying me ever since. Mrs. 
Carlisle just pointed her linger 
at Mrs. Rieh. 1 went down yester- 
day and told Mrs. Carlisle what 
1 was doing." | 

"1 ean tell you why Jean 
changed her story," said Mrs. 
Rich. "She got mad at me. a week 
ago Saturday night because my 
husband and I. wouldn't allow her 
to go around with a married 
man. Her mother is dead' and 1 
tried to look after her. I told her 
the Children's Aid would get 
after her if she didn't watch her 
step." I 

"So you have been trying to 
look after her?" asked the Crown. 

"Yes," replied Mrs. Rich. 

"Have you been giving her li- 
quor?" 

"No."

"No, ts'.oy all had liquor that |

"I am not satisfied in this case 
that an assault did take ylaee," 
ruled His Worship. "I am going 
to dismiss the charge." 

T. II. Mitchell of ltitigwood, 
charged by Constable Ferguson 
with attempting to pass, was 
fined $5 and costs. 

The oflicer testified that accus- 
ed was passing a truck just be- 
fore he reached the brow of a 
hill and he had to apply his 
brakes and pull over to the 
shoulder of the road to avoid 
being hit. There is a solid white 
line down the centre of the road. 

"1 was called to the side of the 
road by this courteous young 
man, and I think my trouble was 
that I was too slow in pulling in," 
admitted accused. "1 never pass 
cars on a hill. I really passed on 
the level." 

C. Gary MeKenna of Toronto, 
pleaded guilty to a charge of 
careless driving and was! filled $5 
and costs. ( 

"On August I7th, at 3.45 p.m., 
in the Township of East Gwillim- 
bury, I observed a car driven by 
MeKenna," testified Constable 
Ferguson. "I followed lit for a 
mile at 60 miles an hour, cutting 
in and out of traffic on several 
occasions and going on the 
shoulder of the road. When I 
stopped him he gave an explana- 
tion that his wife was seriously 
ill up north. He had been drink- 
ing and I wouldn't let Kim go 
any farther until he had some 
coffee. 1 phoned and found out 
that his explanation was correct. 
1 was satisfied that he was alright 
and let him go on. His nerves 
were in bad condition." 

"I had a drink before I got th« 
phone call about my wife," ad- 
mitted accused. j 

Henry Woodley of Toronto, 
charged with failing to remain 
at the scene of an accident, driv- 
ing while intoxicated, and dan- 
gerous driving, was remanded 
until next week. Bail was set at 
$500. I 

Walter Nesbitt of Aurora, was

The editor tells me this is 
newspaper week! Naturally that 
makes my mind run back to the 
early days of my girlhood, for 
one of my earliest recollections 
is the weekly local papers. Yes, 
I say papers — plural, not singu- 
lar — for always so far as 1 know, 
we have had two local papers in 
our town. 

When I first heard of this 
paper it was called "The Reform- 
er," and if my memory does not 
play me false, it was run by an 
uncle of Prof. Arthur Oliver, Mr. 
Ratcliffe, a son of whom, Mr. 
Harry Ratcliffe, lives in Toronto 
at the present time. H 

How I recall this so vividly is 
because Miss Oliver and Miss 
.Marjory Ratcliffe used to sing 
duets at local concerts, and By- 
ron Oliver played the accomp- 
animent, They were gifted 
artists, as is Prof. F. Arthur 
Oliver, who is attached to the 
Toronto Conservatory of Music 
in Toronto, and were always in 
demand, and when it was a 
question of music.

entryway that leads up a stair-

before you mounted the stairs, 
but I never recall having been in 
there.

it and carried on in the same 
premises. It was Sir, Binns who 
changed the name to the Express- 
Herald, and he kept the paper 
up to a high standard until he 
in his turn, sold out to carry on 
in the same line down in Mon- 
treal, until, his death a few years 

a?o- > - . 

Then Mr. J- D. McKay bought 
it and moved it over to Main 
street, or I think it was Mr. 
McKay. That was during my 
school days >and we take every- 
thing for "ranted in those happy 
carefree . days! He was part of 
Main Street ,and we accepted 
him as such! He had been the 
science master at high school, but 
evidently preferred journalism, 
and 1 understand he made a 
great success of his paper. In 
r.;ct, 1 believe it was under him 
that the two local papers be- 
came partisan — one Liberal, aiid 
the other Conservative. I do not 
mean that the .Era had not al- 
ways been Liberal — indeed it 
always had, but 1 do not think 
the other paper was extreme for 
the other side, till then, when 
Mr. McKay came out strong for) 
Colonel Lennox. 

Extreme party politics seems 
to be a thing of the past, so far 
as our two local weeklies arc 
concerned — and we have what 
Mr.- Andy Clark calls "Neighbor- 
ly news." We all listen to him 
every Sunday morning at 10 
o'clock over CBL, and arc as 
pleased as a little puppy-dog with 
a nosegay tied to its tail if he 
mentions either our Express- 
Herald or our Era, or maybe both 
in his broadcast. If by some 
queer chance he should read this 
he may think I don't know much 
about my subject — and Til have 
to confess I do not. 

It is as I said before, we just 
take certain things for granted,, 
and never stop to consider their 
origin. But the weekly papers 
have always been a part of my 
life, since I can remember. Why, 
before I went to school, I can re- 
member going with other girls 
to the Era office on Thursdays, 
around four o'clock, to get the 
paper, fresh off the press, so the 
homefolk shouldn't have to wait 
till it came through the mail that 
evening, or next morning, if the 
postmaster hadn't time* to put 
them in the boxes. 

And that recalls Mr. Erastus 
Jackson, who founded the Era, 
father of the late Mr. L. C», Jack- 
son, who served the town so 
faithfully for a great many 
years, and from whom the pres- 
ent otynei*, Mr. Andrew Hebb, 
took over. 1 have heard it said 
that Mr. Erastus Jackson began 
his paper in that building at the 
north end, across from the resi- 
dence of the late Miss Josephine 
Sykes, on

"Neighborly News*' well de- 
scribes our weekly papers, and 
for all people pretend they are 
not interested in what others are 
doing, they took for items in our 
local papers, j look for the little 
articles about • church activities, 
and lodges and societies of one 
kind or another. Look to see 
who is engaged, or horn, or mar- 
ried — yes/ and who has been 
called away by death from our 
midst, and are disappointed if 
there is liot st little write-up of 
the life of the deceased in the 
same isssue, or in the next week. 

The town council is a subject 
of never-failing interest, as wc 
all know, | but just now the chief 
interest lies in our military camp 
and the complete transformation 
of our dear old fair grounds. 

The new — the fair grounds — 
and the old time North Vnrk 
Agricultural Fair! In the .old 
days when we used to have thvee 
days of ii. How eagerly every- 
one watched for the local pari-Vrs 
to see the prize winners, watched 
for dates of other fall fairs. Any- 
one who likes to recall old times 
can do so by reading a few it*; jus 
culled from the files "Fifty YoV-s 
Ago," "Twenty-live Years A||» f " 
"Thirty Years Ago," "Th ,ee 
Hundred and Sixty-live I)j ys 
Ago." Old-timers certainly s{an 
that column for familiar nanus. 

Both the Era and the F\*pre|>s- 
ilerald have changed hands sev- 
eral times since their inception, 
and they grow more interesting 
year by year. Can't you jtist 
fancy our soldier boys overseas 
devouring them — reading every

Of Main and Ontario Streets, In 
the early, early days of our town, 
but my first recollection of the 
Era office is the spot where II 
now stands, and as I said before, 
going there on a Thursday after- 
noon to get the paper, limp and 
warm off the press. 

Mr. Erastus Jackson, who ran 
the office at the front, used to 
take us in to watch them print- 
ing the paper, and it had a fear- 
ful fascination for me; the clatter 
and the noise nearly deafened 
you, and it always seemed half 
dark there. (I suppose it was 
getting dusk about four o'clock), 
and there we stood, a frightened, 
fascinated line of little folks 
holding each other's hands, 
waiting for our papers. Mr. 
Jackson would go over to the 
huge monster that waved and 
threshed its arms back and forth, 
taking the paper off the rollers, 
where the late Mr. George Muir 
stood calmly removing them, and 
passing them back to another 
man who folded them. They all , 
smiled reassuringly at us, but we 
were too terrified to go near it. 

It was in the same way we 
used to love to stand in the door 
of the blacksmith shops, Mr. 
Manning's, Mrs. Fierhcller\s and 
Mr. Dolan's, and watch them at 
work, but we never dared ven- 
ture past the open door. But 
queer to relate, I loved the smell 
of printer's ink, and I do yet!

(he next best thing to gctti.tg 
letters from your home folk! V }s, 
I know, for I've done the sai ie 
thing — read every word, a id 
gone back and read it all again! 
Our local papers mean such a lit 
to us. We realize Just how mu |h 
they do mean in our lives wh'-jn 
we are a way,, even if, as I w 
only on holidays. 

I remember hearing tfic ole 
ones in the family discuss cdt'i- 
tri billions sent in by someone 
who called himself 'Old Know 
All," and one who signed hiii- 
self 'The Owl," both writers }fa 
the Era years ago, and many, a 
good laugh they used to raije, 
but I haven't the slightest Idj a 
who they were, nor what th 
wrote about, but children rec; 
things that used to amuse the 
families, you know. 

The editorials are eagerly re. 
by everybody — and we all lo< 
for the local news, shivered ov 
the many accidents, read wi 
pleasure, and ofter amusemei 
the soldiers' letters, as we iHJs 
their life, reading between tl;p 
lines. We simply can't imagine 
life without our town weeklies; 
the daily Toronto paper of coursft 
is a part of our daily life, but ft 
hasn't the same kind of endeaji- 
ing hold our local papers hav):.
