THuRSTON, Asaociatc Editor THE KING ON HOLIDAY King Edward may not remain for as long a period annually in the Royal home in the Scottish hiprhlnnds, estab- lished by his beloved jjreat grand- mother, but he is making arrange- ments for continuance of Royal holi- daying at Balmoral and is expected there as early as next month. The King, however, may appear Its.o in the bunting field and more on the golf coarse, and the Abcrdonians, who have fine greens within easy distance of the roynl home, are hopinjr he may see fit to honor them by appearing on at least one of their links. Then it is contemplati-d to have the Duke and Duchess of York and their dainty daughters take up house for a time at Balmoral, so that the Duchess may, this year, otficiate as hostess on state occasions. Mayhap before another fall season arrives the Kin;; may have a wife of hi-^ own to ott'ciate. But fn the absi nee of a Queen Consort no one is better fitted to act as His Majesty's "right hand supporter' than the charming sister-in-law. CENTRELINE ! Here we are again, and still no rain. The pasture and spi'ing crops are nearly burnt up. The water supply is getting low. It is quite cool and clowdy this morning. Every one is busy at the hay, which is a bettor crop than people thought it was going to be. The raspberries are drying up for want of rain ; at one time there was prospects of a great I Top of berries. Nearly every one from this line attended the Orange celebration at Dundalk last Monday in spite of heat and dust. There was a very large crowd and lots of amusement. Miss Dorothy Jamieson of Toronto is spending a couple of weeks at the home of Mrs. Florence Lyons. The W. A. of Mount Zion met at the home of Mrs. Harry Fisher on July 9th with 12 members, 6 visitors, present. The August meeting was withdrawn and the Association ac- cepted the invitation to attend a pic- nic at Mrs. Robt. Lee's as guests of the Inistioge Ladies, on August 11th The September meeting to be held at th<' home of Mrs. Jas. Linton. Master Bert Luckhurst of Toronto is spending the holidays at Mrs. Lyons'. Mr. John and Victoi- Osborne, lev Little and Arthur Wright with Jack Elliot of Stan- spent May- EDITORIAL NOTE? The committee of management for the re-union of old boys and girls in Flesherton and district, to be held at "the Hub" on Civic Holiday (beginn- ing on Sunday, August 2nd, and clim- axing the following day) are arrang- ing a program of much interest. From far and near will doubtless come the young and old to participate in the unique gathering. • • • Italian civilization continues its pro- ^'resg in Abyssinia. Recently an aer- oplane went out from the capital on a scouting expedition. It was forced down and the five occupants slaugh- tered by natives. This was proof in Italian eyes that this unfortunate people had not completed the process which their idea of civilization em- braced, so they proceeded to burn 300 natives alive. This ought to complete the work â€" at least so far as this 300 are concerned. What a howling farce Italy has made of its own civilization. Italy, the mother home of a great religion that believes it her duty to bring nations under the banner of the cross. Had the church Slesired there is no doubt that sh* could have prevented this murder, which stinks in the nostrils of the whole world of right thinking men. Sanctions against this robber nation should never have been lifted, and honest nations should continue the I boycott of Italian trade. The rest of the world can exist without her while she is controlled by her mad dictator. Sunday bourne, Mount Zion friends were sorry to hear of Mrs. Geo. Backburn getting her arm broken recently. Mr. Jas. Porteous, Mrs. Florence Lyons and Garfield. Miss Dorothy Jamieson, Bert Luckhurst and Harry Kay spent ."Sunday with friends in Muaford. Mr. Wm. Cameron is suffering from an attack of quinsy.

FOSTER and FAMILY Osprey Resident Dies FEVERSHAM A very sudden death occurred near here on Friday, July 17th, of an old resident of this Township and for some years of this village, Mr. Samuel Ottewell. who .sudden death caused a great shock over this locality. Mr. Ottewell was helping a nephew at the hay, when they were unloading a load at the barn when he suddenly fell over and expired, it is supposed from heart failure.

Miss Agnes I»-win of Toronto is spending a vacation with her grand- parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. Burnett. Master Clarence Wiley of Owen SouikI is holidaying at his grand- father, Mr. F. Mathewson. \ great change in temperature has taken place. The cool days are help- ing, yet those longed-for showers have not come our way and crops are suffering greatly. Some have finish- ed haying, others have yet a lot to do, and we notice it turning ripe standing in the fields, which will take much from the feedng qualities. The straw will be very short this season; eveni with rain now it is too late for much growth. Everyone is busy! Who wants work? Some have been trying to get on the highway work, but none have as yet been taken on. The municipal crusher is in Black's pit at Salem and trucks are hauling eastward from there. • The Campbell Construction Co., who brought a number of horses to their farm here in the spring, are now trucking them away to a contract they have secured near Kingston. "Hie horses are looking much better after their two months on pasture. Tuesday evening of last week a joint reception was tendered by the community to the newly wedded couples, Mr. and Mrs. Robt. Ferris and Mr. and Mrs. Fred Knox. An address was read by Mrs. Delbert Haw and Fred and Addie were presented with a Coleman lamp and occasional chairs by Gordon McLeod and Delbert Haw. Mrs. Walter Knox read an address to Mr. and Mrs. Ferris and the presenta- tion of a beautiful rug and occasional chair was made by Dick Hardy and Walter Knox. The groom fittingly thanked the community for their kind- ness. The evening was spent in dancing and lunch was served. Some took a dip in the pond and everyone enjoyed themselves. Sunday last was memorial day in Salem United Cemetery. There was a very good attendance and the graves were nicely decorated with flowers. On the first Sunday in August Com- munion services will be conducted in Swinton church by the pastor. Rev. N. McDonald at 3 p.m. Mr. Wesley Heard of Detroit is this week on holidays at the old home here with his mother and Brother and also renewing old acquaintances.

Nurse Ethel Campbell of Toronto, with her aunt, Mrs. Turnbull, and cousin, Isabella, of Vancouver spent the week end at Sam Goheen's, and all were at Swinton church on Sunday. We were very sorry to hear of the death of our old friend, Mr. Ramage, of the Durham Review. Death in this case was only a promotion. No person should envy a Weed In- specor. His duties bring him into conflict with all classes of people, some of whom must be personal friends, if not relatives of his own. But as Lord Nelson said at Trafalgar, "Duty must be done." NOTICE TO CREDITORS TAKE NOTICE that all persons having any claim or claims against the estate of Norman Alexander Pat- terson, deceased, late of the Town- ship of Osprey, are required to send the same to W. D. HENRY, Esq., K. C 823-2nd Avenue East, Owen Sound, on or before the Ist day of August, 1936. Dated at Owen Sound this 20th day of July, 1936. â€" W. D. HENRY K.C, Solicitor for the Administrator. Care Will Save Money Farmers sustain enormous each year, through careless methods of shipping livestock by train and truck. Experienced shippers recom- mend that all cattle be dehorned, that each class of stock be separated by partitions, that loading-chutes be used and that all spikes, and slivers, etc., be removed from cars and trucks. The people who really have money to bum are certainly not the ones who burn it. A negro has been chosen by Un- ited States Communists as their can- didate for the vice-presidency. We presume the party colors for the campaign are to be red and black.- •.•vv*.*w%*v*.*v*.*v*.*%*v*.»*.*vwwvvvv DUMP TRUCKS I ?
