THURSTON, Editor THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE SM.^LI. irw.l A rr.XESj^ili T'-.'.i v.c^ the prize lists of ihu Osp-cy .\.',-iicultura'. Society Fall Fair are bamg diatributcu by the secre- iHiy, Mr. George W. Ross, to the members of the Society. There are a Urge number of generous special prizes to supplement the prizes offer- ed in the general list. Any person who ia not a member is urged to se- cure a list from Mr. Ross. Prepare the exhibits chosen and you will be surprised the added interest you will have in the show. While your suc- cess may not be satisfactory the first year, you will learn many of the fine points of preparing the exhibits for showing and another year you may leave for home after the show with your share of the prizes. No person can truthfully say that the fall fair is not needed in any community, as farming today is be- coming more and more a competitive business. The farmer needs good stock to make his efforts pay; poor grade cattle or any other animal lose money for the farmer every day. It does not take as long to prepare a good animal for market as a poor one and the returns are pieater. The development of gooH stock through the years has been liy the method of showing at fairs, cullinjr the poorer grades, and even striving to improve the quality of the animal. The small fall fair certainly has its place in the community and the fu-m- er should be the first to appreciate that fact, show his stock and if un- successful in winning prizes be de- termined that he can raise as good stock as his neighbor. The Osprey fall fair has always been regarded as a show place for good stock and its reputation can only be sustained through the farmers of that town- ship continually working to make their fair the best it has ever been. i-KOTON STATION Notice the coming events for an announcement of the Proton Station United Church anniversary on Sep- tember Ilth.

Mr. and Mrs. Nichols, Jack and Helen were also callers at the Acheson home as they were returning from their holiday as far north as Kapuskasing. Our village street is gay with bloom this summer. The gardens and the lawns in spite of the dry weather add much beauty to the appearance of this quiet little burg and a late addition to other improvements we have noticed recently is the new sun- room at the front of the post office and the new roof on Mr. Sims' barn.

PRESENTATION PARTY FOR NEWLYWEDS On Friday, August 12, a presenta- tion party was held for Mr. and Mrs. Elwood Kinsman, recently jpiarried, at the home of Mr. Roy McDermid. The weather and moonlight were per- fect, as was the Agricultural Society'* platform for dancing, which was halt- ed at midnight when Mr. and Mrs. !i;. ...;.. an were calkJ to the front whtre the following address was read by Mr. Bob Whittaker: Dear Klwood and Mamie, Now that your ship of matri- mony has been safely launched, we have gathered to stand by and cheer sail-set. For long it lingered in the shipyard while Elwood drove his giant saw as if it were to be indeed a ship of wood, no doubt hearing it make music to the song in his heart. The Bohnnk Love Song Beside me on the divan sat The troubadour from Hungary. He laid his violin aside And sang a song of love to me. VICE- VERSA A dashing youi.g fellow named Tim Drove his car 'rtth plenty of vim. Said he "I'm renowned For coverine the ground." But alas now the ground covers him. SCOTCH TO THE LAST Dawn found an Englishman, an Irishman and a Scot, three survivors of a shipwreck, drifting helplessly on a raft. Night came and still no sign of rescue. When things looked hope- less the Irishman knelt in silent prayer. Quickly the Englishman snatched off his hat as a mark of re- spect and the Scot took a flying leap into the sea. He thought the Englishman was about to make a collection. The trouble about being happy is that we do realize we are until we are not. TOO OLD TO START NOW Sandy McPherson was travelling in Glasgow, and on the way he felt thirsty so he took out a bottle and drew the cork. |Juit as he was about to take a hooker a fellov/ passenger in clerical garb addressed him: "Excuse me, sir, but I am sixty years of age and I have never tasted a drop of whiskey." "Dinna worry yourself," said Sandy "you're naw goin' tae start noo." SALESMEN WANTED RaAileigh famous everyday house- hold necessities in increasing demand.

P'-onriotor, GK». STEWART. ^ .k. Cerhett. Clerk. GEO. DUNCAN, Auctioneer You are the dearest thought I think The perfume on my breeze. The kick producer in my drink. The skipper in my cheese. You are my melody of love, The rainbow in my sky, , The gold brick in my treasure trove. The iris of my eye. You are the moonlight in my night. The picture on my wall. You're everything that is all right You're everything â€" that's all. We hope the slabs will sparkle for- ever on your hearth, remembering that love is like a burning, even as in the blooming of that bright red flower planted by mankind, "The Old Flame." Why do we like to watch a fire The reason is not strange. It's primitive divine desire, Oh come to me, my sweet. Miss Carbon, Mr. Oxygen, Parted by leaves and sun Forget the past and meet again; New romance has begun. They glow. Each other is caressed With elemental heat. Snap! Crackle! Pop. Alone at last, Os come to me, my sweet. The course of Love, however true, From anguish may not turn. And even those immortal two Do not escape, they burn. Once more as nebula they fare Skyward in bliss sublime. Again united as they were Before the birth of Time. We trust that Elwood's labors in Little Michigan's woods will long out- last the spring, and that his pockets with money may jingle and ring, so that Mamie may find many a quarter and cartwheel when she sweeps the sawdust from this couch and carpet with which we take pleasure in pre- senting you, to show you our esteem. Signed on behalf of the Mill Gang, Elmer Harrison, Sandy Stonehouse. Mr. Kinsman, in a few appropriate words thanked the friends for these and many other useful and beautiful gifts. Lunch was served and then "On with the dance" far into the night. YOUR OPPORTUNITY To Have The Advance Cook Book Our limited supply is available to new subtcribert.

BIGGEST FROLIC EVER HELD IN MARKDALE THUiRSDAY, SEPTEMBER 1 Advice knows pretty much all there is to know about deaf ears. Experiments show that fish shrink when they die. Anglers should try to remember this. It is difficult sometimes to realize that the fellows whose occupation is photographing bathing girls and beau- ty contest winners get paid for it. At a luncheon of newspaper men the following toast was offered; "The ladies! Second only to the press in the dissemination of news!" â€" South- west Tourist News. Probably the reason politicians like to make speeches over the radio is because no one in the audience can fling awkward questions at them that way. Tell a man he should walk more and use the car less and he will prob- ably say, "Oh yeah," but get him in- terested in some sort of recreation and he will probably take quite a lot of exercise without realising it. To find how far a dancer would step a newspaper attached pedometers to the feet of an experimentaS couple who kept partnership all evening. It was found that during a fast number they stepped one hundred and seventy yards, and seventy yards for a slow fiance. The net result of the evening was about nine miles. .Ask these people to go for a nhie-mile walk after supper and they would probably throw up their hands in horror. â€" Per- est Standard. Still if you could tiromise them their pifk of new part- ners every seventy yards you might ha siirprised.^T. Oilier In the Shel- i>unie F. P. Bn4 â- . Live Stock Report (By Dunn & Levack, Toronto) With an unexpected heavy supply of 6000 cattle for Monday's market, the trade opened slow and buyers were bidding low^r ipricesti Choice baby beeves and cows held about steady but heavy steers were a very slow trade, while choice butcher cat- tle were about a quarter lower. The top on choice weighty steers was 6.50 to 6.75; fair to good from 6.66 to 6.25; common to medium 4.50 to 5.25. Choice butcher steers and heifers brought from 5.75 to 6.00 with an occasional sale of a few prime butchers up to 6.25; fair to good 5.25 to 5.75; common to medium 4.00 to 4.75. Choice baby beeves were in good demand at from 8.50 to 9.50 while those of medium quality sold at lower prices accordingly. Stockers and feeders held about steady with a strong enquiry for selected light stockers at from 4.75 to 6.25, with those of heavier weights at from 5.26 to 5.50; medium to good stockers at from 4.25 to 4.75. The cow trade was active and steady, ichoice fat cows at from 4.00 to 4.25 with a few extra choice up to 4.50; fair to good 3.50 to 4.00; comomn to medium 2.75 to 3.25; canners and cutter 2.25 to 2.65.

The hog market was somewhat bet- ter, truck deliveries selling at 9.36 on Monday. Prospects for the bal- ance of the week look favorable. There have been a good many changes made but the speckled hen still has to scratch for a living. What may start out as a first-class reason may turn out to be a second- rate excuse. A man in Stratford bought a snow shovel on the hottest day of the year because he found the thing on a bar- gain list. People laughed but that man was a good buyer.
