MlNlCir.VL ELECllONS I'rovinciaj election uctivilii's bein^ lived down by iho averago voter, ii is even now lime for civic patriots to be preparing for the selection of re- presenUtives m this year's municipal auctions. These contests affect th(! lives of residents in the various cities, towns, villages and townships to al- most as great an extent as those for Provincial and Dominion seats, and the eU-ctors do well to choose in each case the best man offering. There is this added reason for taxpayers tak- ing kven interest i» municipal elec- tions. The Councillor elected now may be the Reeve or Mayor deenuM worthy of promotion to the Legisla- ture or 10 the House of Commons in a later contest. It is quite in order that a man of parts, faithful to his trust, should be given opportunity by his record, to aspire to tht> higher jtrice. First then, choose the best, and if he proves exceptionally useful to the public, "groom" him for high- er ser%'ice. A COSTLY LKSSON In travelling along the highway.s at night one sees many horse-drawn vehicles without the protection of re- flectors or lights. Last week, near Thornbury, an accident occurred in which a farmer lost his life when, ac- cording to the police, he failed to pro- vide proper lighting e(|uipment for night travel. Only a small expend- iture would be required to proride proper protection for themselves, and others, if they are caught on the roads after dark. No doubt many intend to procure the lights for their vehicles, but there is always a next time. In the meanwhile such accidents keep oe- »f«rringr and the lesson is never le«me<I.

EUGENIA CEYLON held ROCK MILLS EDITORLXL NOTES Alberta has «n albino pony. So far, Mr. Aberhart has not claimed that he is to be credited with this â- OTolty. • • • Tourists are sayii»(f that Canadian Madi are better this year than la.'^l, but there are still declarations that too many bumps are found on sonw thoroughfares. • • • A recejt tourist ili Europe found "the King and t^ueen of Ueniiiark the most perfect of royal democratic lovers." The traveller does not say that she visited at or near the home of Great Britain's King and Scottish (iueen, otherwise she would likel.\ have changed her opinion and placed Kinjf Ceorge and Queen Elizabeth at the head of democratic .Sovereigns, on occasions of national ceremony at- tractively stately; in contact with the populace, as the .Scotch say, "Aye hame ower.'' • • ♦ The broken heart is no fable. De- scribing his researches in the London "I^n«ct," Dr. Edrich Wittkowen says that mental stress can cause heart pain. This stress may be caused by failure in business, impending loss or employment or disappointment in married life. The most noted case that we know of was caused by the loss of her only daughter by a form- er resident of this vfllag*. She died in the bloom of young life from viru- lent disease contracieil while giving her services as a V.A.I), nurse to stricken soldiers from the great war. The mother, warmly attached to her devoted child never got over the bi-r cavenient and medical experts de- clared that her subsequent ill health and death were due to a "Broken heartedness" caused bv her jfreat â- orrow.
