Shoving Christmas Just A Bit Too Far Ahead Successful Farmer Sometimes in a close race it be- comes necessary for the driver â- ^o speed up matters by giving the horse a touch of the whip, and it now ap- pears as though some of Toronto's merchandisers think the same thing necessary to accelerate the Christmas buying. Although five full weeks still remained until Christmas arrives, the big Santa Glaus parade which was held in Toronto last Sat. leads one to belelve that good old Kriss Kringle's reindeer have been touched up freely or given a shot in the arm to get them to theQueen City so far in advance of Christmas, Per- haps this is one other case where tht racing authorities should apply the "saliva test." At any rate it looks as if the shop early slogan was being pushed too far head and the spirit lost sight of entirely by retailers whose only interest in Chrichmas soems to be to make it a highly com- nifrcializod t'rvent. â€" 'Chesley Enter- prise. Among the prominent and success- fuf farmers of Proton Township, Joseph Black occupies an enviable position. He has resided all his life in the township. He is a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Robert Black, pion- eers of that part of Grey County and was born on April I4th, 1859. He remained at his father's home. Lot 14, Con. 16, Proton Township, until he reached the age of 30 years, when he left to establish a new home for him- self. He purchased Lots 17 and 18, in the 14th Concession of his native township, i and by hard work and thrifty haljits he was able to add to this farm an additional hundred acres Russia plans to open 3,300 new .stores, six large department stores and 2,500 booths in cities this year. France shipped 25,033 gallons of cognac to the Unitod States in June, which is near the record height. MR. JOSEPH BLACK EIGHTH LINE,OSPREY (Intended for Laat Week) Mr. and Mrs. P. Somers and son visited in Preston a few days ago. While there the son had his hand dressed by Nurse E. Blaschke, who is a granddaughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. Moffatt. We are glad to know that Mr. Ken- dall Hawkins is home from Markdale hospital and hope he will soon be strong again. Ladies' Aid was held last Thursday at the home of J.

On Wednesday evening the ladies of the W. A. gave a vegetable supper at the church hall. The program, which followed, was amusing and was rendered by local talent, consisting of recitations and dialogues and a play "A Perplexing Situation," which proved that women could hold their tongue for a whole day, and was helped out by solos, duets and the Blakey orchestra. Mr. and Mrs. Walt. Arnold and babe, Bobbie, Mr. K. Arnold and Miss Betty Egart of Buffalo, Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Ward and Helen Moore, Mr. â- ind Mrs. Allen Parsons and Burton of Toronto spent the week end at the home of Chas. Moore. A noteable feature is that seven-weeks-old baby Arnold made the trip from Buffalo, a distance of about 200 miles, in his basinette on the back seat of the car and showed no particular signs of fatigue. In about the same number if houi-s his grandfather, some 56 years ago, made the trij) when a month old to Maxwell in his mother's arms on the spring seat of a wagon (a spring seat wagon was a luxury !ot enjoyed by everyone then). The â- 'stance of that journey was nine or â-  1 miles. That baby was so tired ,lio next day and cried so hard, the 'â- â€¢ni journey had to be postponed til Monday morning. How far will â-  hahv of the year 2000 travel in ' ;-,nm'' length of time ? Mr. and "*/Irs. Moore returned with the .\rnolds.

Parents do not mind making sacri- fices to help their children, but they are not enthusiastic over the idea that children should take it for gran- ted that is what parents are for.
