THURSTON, Editor EDITORIAL NOTES Discipline is a great master. A disciplined worlcer usually earnsi and receive promotion. • » • Earth worms sing, according to the naturalists. Those we used in fish- recently must have ^scared away the trout by humming one of their lays. • * * If scientists could devise a method of teaching potato bugs to fill up on treeds, instead of the succulent *«haw8,'' the ravages of one pest could be alleviated. • • • The wolf came at last. People have kept singing that they had none of them till a tropical storm came al- ong in Jamaica and blew down 25,000 banana trees. • • * It ia easy to be seen that another U.S. presidential election rs approach- ing. President Coolidge is going to Dakota for his summer holidays and Republican politicians are beginning to hold up the Tammany organization AS an example of all that is bad. • • • Some caretakers of Toronto public schools get more pay than teachers. This doubtless arisc3 from the fact that in Toronto the municipal of- ficial.s are appointed for their strength A caretaker muot be a strong man â€" politically. The aeason for killin«r by the didn't- Icnow-it-was-loaded artist;, has open- ed by the killing of a seven year-old boy by hired man who playfuHj turn- ed a loaded gun on his victini. fhe weapon ohould not have been care- lessly left around in the first instance but no one is warranted in pointing a fire-arm of any kind loaded or un- loaded, on a human being. • » In the County of Kent, the Council of Chatham Township is offering a prize of $2 to every rural school pu- pil on which he or she locates the eow thistle for the first time. Prose- cution of the owner of the property will follow. There arc townships up this way, where a small reward for discovery of thistles would soon cause municipal bankruptcy. IIow are we off for the sow variety, neighbors- Get after all of the species. ' . * * * Forty thousand men are to receive a short season of training in the mil- itia camps of Canada this summer. The 22nd Brigade, which includes the â-  Grey County Regiment, the Algonta Rifle?, the Northern Pioneers, and the Sinicoe Foresters will as.semble at 'Owen Sound next month. While we all hope for a long period of peace, the nation does well to see to it that "PAUL REVERE" \ a new design hi COMMUNITY PLATE its defensive forcas have some meas- ure of preparation and though the an- nual iperiod of drill is very short, it is bt^tter than nothing. Employeers of labour will no doubt co-operate to make it a« easy as possible for the citizen soldieiV to do their duty in this regard. * * « Orte gratifying ft-ature of the cele- brations in this, the Sixtieth Anniver- sary of Canadian Confederation, is the heavy increase shown in trained nurses. Sixty years* hgo l^rained nurses were almost unknown in Can- ada. Now in every great centre well- equipped hospitals are turning out large numbers of certificated nurses, very many of whom have chosen the vocation because of their desire to be increasingly serviceable to the afflict- ed. * * * It is a good thing at this season of the year, says The Craig Banner, to remind young people not to destroy the insectrivoroas birds which render such countles'3 and invaluable services to the farmer and the world at large. In many parts of the country insects have caused grievous damage for some years, both to the foreata and the har- vests. More attention, therefore, should be paid to the preservation of the birds which aid in the destruction of insects which attack crops and growing timber. * * * It ij possible that the managers of Ontario prisons have short memories, otherwise it is doubtful if they would have taken "Bob" Cook from Orange- ' He to Toronto's jail prison over the Don. In that place of detention, not so very long ago, a notoriou-3 con- demned murderer was supplied with a night watchman who went asleep at his po.it. The window in the cell was eighteen feet from the ground, but as if to aid a resourceful inmate a table wa-3 placed in the cell, upon which the prisoner mounted and crawled out. ''Bob" Cook would no doubt heartily welcome such conoid- eration at the hands nf hi.^ detainers * *' ti Hanover's ir.nnicipal forest i.t get- ting: alonfc we'l we are informed. Whtn the 35,000 pine trees recently ilanUd on the hilside from v.here 'lanover gets it;; water supply get their growth, the town will have a very respectable wood â€" surrounding tlie Ruhl Lake reservoir. The example of our neighbors should not be lost .=;iKht of by other comniunitie.-,. There should be no waate lands left with- out trees. Thoy may not prove an f.irly crop but they grow while you sleep and generations to rome will ri.;e up to call thoseb lessed who are enterprii-ing and energetic enough to I)lant tree3 that arc to be had from the authorities for the asking.

ATTACKED BY BULL I IN LIVE STOCK CAR Mr. William Tomilinson a local, drover while loading cattle at the stock yards happened with an acci- dent, which might have proven fatal., A Jersey Bull had broken loose in. one of the cars, and Mr. Tomilson rushed in and endeavored to keep it; from running out, as a result the bull ' ki-^ked him down dislocating Jiis right arm end badly strained the ligaments. As the man was in a help- less condition, some of the other drovers beat the animal off and man- aged to get him out of the car. Mr. Jasper Stuart at once drove the in- •jured man to Dr. Bennett's office where he was treated. Mr. Tomilison was no doubt badly shaken up after his experience, but is getting along as well as can be expected. â€" Meaford Mirror. Messrs. T. J.
