TUURSTON, - Assoc Editoi orilKK DAYS .\Ki; HlvKK The old home offers scant scope for "big thinjr.«." Our villape is small r a vc.-t pocket edition with business |>lace.>> that could be numbered %lmost tin onc'.s finpers and toes. There are no .iky .scrapers; no police force, no fire brijtadi- (as the citie.< know them), no theatres, no trolleys or bus lin*s, no office buildint^rs, no hMKH corporations. . , . Wc are a quiet back-water in the- swirling tide of Ontario affairs^ a hamlet from whence youth wings i"?? fledgling flight and age returns foi final respite from the vigours of life. But we have a healthy and whole- some life: young bu6ini»«5smen of vision and vigor, reflecting the very qualities that have made such busi- ness successes of many of our grad- Dates cityward: the Bill Hemphills, the .Wex. Gibson's, the Charlie Mc- Tavishcs â€" and so many others. . These two elements of Fleshorton- ianism â€" the home folk and the hom- ing folk â€" united to give us all one ot those fine, heart-warming Old Home Picnic over the week end: Sabbath observance on Sunday, and the won- derful all-day affair on Monday with our best and oldest of friends. Down at "the pond" (one visitoi asks, "Could we ever bring ourseh-es to call it Flesher's Lake, as The Ad- vance suggests?") it was evident that time has worked its changes. \ new generation has arisen, and the old order passed away. The efficient "crawl stroke" has banished forever the breast stroke and "dog fashion'- swing, and fancy dives have eliminat- ed entirely the painful bell â€" the, well you know, the kind that slaps you when you don't hit the water right. The modern kids (and Flesherton has •em) know how to do these things, us we oldsters never did. It's better so! In the afternoon the League ball game gave lots of action. It ended up, too, as it ought on such a gala day: with Flesherton precariously leading 8-7 against Collingwood Many an old-timer recalled the stirr- ing days of yesterday, down at the Diemoried "Fair Grounds." And then the picnic! A glorious frolic of comical sports for the young folk; and an orgy of "visiting" in the Memorial Park. From a distance there wa:s a drone of conversation like the hum of myriads of bees. Words fail to give the thrill of it! To meet the friends of youth â€" and see how \reU they withstand the withering advance of the man-with-the-scythc, and sadly perhaps, to note where age is taking its toll. There's a thrill in this wholesale visiting among old time friends that nothing else can give. And then at dusk, in the midst of the harmony of sweet music by the talented "Gypsy dingers" provided by the Toronto Old Boys and GirU, came a tribute to the Immortals: those young men from Flesherton and the surrounding country who gave their life itiot'lf, never again to join in a Flesherton ceanion â€" sacrificed to their country in the Great War. Their names w«re read: name by name, 8.1 heads were bared, and .•sil- ence, deep and reverent silence. Then the Kwelling chorus "Oh God our help in Ares Past." A fitting tribuU- to those whose names live re^'erently in our hearts. And then, the dance! And such is life! The old fri*ndB parted and left, one by one and the youag folk <4 the newest f le<igling generation forgot it all in the rhythm and music of the dance. Theirs is the »ew day, and to tiseir hands is passing «ht lorih. Fliers Left Today On Long Flight Juntes Ayling and Leonard Reid English pilots, started on Wednesday morning to fly their plane "The Trail of the Caribou" from Wasaga Beach til H.igdad on a ri cord-breaking flight. The heavily laden plane left shortly lifter daylight and ta.\ied along the ! tach for a mile and a half before taking to the air. AVeathir reports received were favorable for the un- dertaking and the flier.s left on their long trip with tlu best wishes for a successful flight. Quite a number from Flesherton were at Wasaga to spiH.':! the couple on their way. * HUALTM CCRVICC OF THE CANADIAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION AND L I F E CSlT INSURANCE COMPANIbS IN CANADA SECIRITY I>1<; FF.EDINC; MV.TlIf)!)^ Although there ate .-<-»ii.>i ...i iho<ls <bf preparing meal mixtures for feed- ing pigs, the following rulee are ree- ommendtd as saf>- practices in produc- ing hogs of the lUsircd type: (1) Crind all grain.

Johnston, a son Flesherton Defeated Collingwood 8-7 Flesherton defeated Collingwood in a rousing finish 8-7 in the holiday fixture here on -Monday, after Reg. Hutton gave his best exhibition ol pitching this season. He struck out seven batters and while he allowed one more hit than Flesherton took ofl Caesar and Smith he was particularly i-ffcctive in the pinches and kept the hits well scattered. Both teams fail- ed to bjck up their battery and each had eight errors, but Collingwood's appeared to be the most glaring with several overthrows to bases and muff- ed grounders. "Curly" Krug was the hero of the Flesherton attack with two three base hits on his four trips to the plate; Young of CoUingsvood was the only one to secure a triple hit off Huston. Phillips had a big day with the willow with three hits on four trips and played a splendid game at the initial sack in the ab- sence of Ken Betts. Young and Owen were the best batters for Coll- ingwood, each gathering two hits from four trips to the plate. Smith, the left-handed sensation of the Collingr- wood team relieved Caesar in the fifth inning after Flesherton had .secured a four run lead and while he only allowed one hit in four innings, thir- teen Flesherton battlers facing him, the damage had already been done and his team mates could not reach Hutton for the needed hits to win the game. The last inning of the contest was particularly thrilling when .Swanze took a walk and was thrown out on an attempted steal by Wauch- ope at second. Young gi-ounded out Wau:hopc to Phillips and Smith aided the cause with a two ^ase hit and promptly stole third.. With the tie- ing run on third Campbell hit a high fly to McTavish who promptly smothered it in his usual manner to end the game.

Kvery death from diphtheria is a needless sacrifice of child life. That is the one thought which we wish to leave firmly fixed in the mind of every parent or of everyone else who is responsible for the care of young children. Diphtheria is just as dan- gerous a foe as ever it was Diph- theria does not change, but thanks to medical .science, we can raise otir powei-s of resistance to this particu- lar enemy, and we can watch oui thildren growing up without being haunted by the fear that diphtheria will strike them down. This can be done, and many thous- ands of Canadian children have been freed from the menace of diphtheria because their parents have had them immunized. These are the wise par- snts and the fortunate children. But what of the children whose parents, for one reason or another, have put off having them immunized against diphtheria? These children are the unfortunate ones, because, through no fault of their own, they are in just as much danger today as all children used to be before the dis- covery was made that diphtheria could be prevented. Diphtheria immunization is a simple and safe procedure. It consists of giving three injections of a sub- stance known as toxoid, at stated in- tervals. Toxoid has the power to cause the body of the person injected to produce certain defensive forces to overcome successfully any diphtheria germs' which may, at some later date gain entrance into the body. The immunized child has, in fact, developed the same immunity oi powers of resistance which follow on recovery from an actrud attack of the disease. In the latter case, however, there are suffering and expense, and sometimes serious crippling, even if the child recovers, whereas immuni- zation is painless and safe. Parents who have had some of theii children immunized are reminded that when the new babies are to celebrate their first birthday is about the time to have them immunized against diphtheria. Do not just think about it; have it done, because in no other way can you safeguard your new baby against diphtheria. The fact that his older brothers and sisters are al- ready immunized will not help him; he must bo done if he also is to have protection Diphtheria can be prevented. The responsibility for making this possi- bility a reality rests with the parents Is your child secure against the diphtheria scourge? U.F.O.-Labor Unite The next game of t4)« schedule is beimr played tii KleKherton this Thurs- day afternoon at 3.30 p.m., when Dui - liam will attempt to keep their pos- ition at the Ifip of the heap. Flesh- erton is confident of adding to their :<tring of victories and making the race a real one. Flesherton's victory over Colling- wood is the second administered to the Simcoe lads, Kimberley having accomplished the feat a f«w weeks ago. Bates Faweeti, fielder on the Kim- iK-rley baseball club suffered a broken arm in the game at Collingwood last week. He made the motion to throw the ball and his arm suddenly went limp and a pain shot through it. He is at present in the Colling^'onil hos- pital. The break wa^ especially ha I as it was near the shoulder and diffi- culty was experienced in netting it properly. The summer girl of today is not half 80 brown as she \* painted. W, H. Hunter.
