It has been proven that disastrous fires are caused by overheated stoves which have been left with the draft open. It is dangerous to force a fire in a small stove as it tends to scorch the woodwork in the room and as a result it takes fire. If larger staves are used there will be lessfire hazard. Householders are urged to piace a sheet of metal or ashestos cloth under the stove, thus protecting the foor from hot coaln SAtoves It is well that the authorities are dealing severely with persons who persist in not telling the truth when giving evidence. It is a mean crime and has caused innocent persons to suffer. In recent years perjury on the part of witnesses in courts has become far too common. Men and women too have been known to go into the witness stand and tell stories that no one believes, but which it is impossible to disâ€" prove. The perjurer sometimes is tripped up on his story, as was the case in an Ontario county whmfourmhmurjnrydm'gumdiu‘ Mr. Edwards was first elected to the House of Conimons in 1925, being reâ€"elected in 1926 and 1930. Previous to entering politics he had municipal experience in the Galt city council and Waterloo county council where he showed ability in debate. He is a sonâ€"inâ€"law of the late George Clare, M.P., who represented the riding for many years. f One of the surprises of the election was the close battle of the ballots in South Waterloo where Mr. Alex. M. Edwards was reâ€"elected by the narrow margin of 59 votes in a strenuous fourâ€"cornered fight. Mr. David S. Chariton, 29â€" yearâ€"old Galt barrister, made a surprisingly strong run for the Liberals and the result was in doubt until the last poll was heard from. The C.C.F. candidate, Mr. Lazarus, polled a good vote, while the Stevens Reconstruction candiâ€" date, Mr. Harvey Hawke, wes poorly supported. The reâ€"election of Hon. W. D. Euler in North Waterloo by the greatest majority ever accorded a political candidate did not come as a surprise to careful students of the local situaâ€" tion. Fortified by a good administrative regcord in the last King government, and the. minute entry of a Conservative candidate field, it was hardly to be expected that the reâ€" sult would be otherwise. North Waterloo is honored in having two native sons of outstandâ€" ing ability, in Premier W. L. M. King and Hon. W. D. Euler, in the the new government. Their many friends in this_County. regardless of party affiliations, wish them well. | $3,250,000 FIRE LOSS 1 during the campaign just closed. ‘With the largest majority ever accorded a leader in the Dominion House, Hon. Mr. King will be able to carry out his policies. That the Liberal party would win in the Dominion election on Monday by a good workâ€" ing majority was, among many careful obâ€" servers, a foregone conclusion. That it would emerge from the contest with such a sweeping victory, 166 seats and a record majority, was hoped for but not expected even by the most enthusiastic supporter. It was a great Liberal victory for the new Premier, Rt. Hon. W. L. M. King, and his followers. It is gratifying that the electors preferred to stick with the oldâ€"line parties rather than new and untried parties as is seen in the utter rout of Hon. H. H. Stevens, leader of the Reconstruction party, and the small following of the C.C.F. and Social Credit Without desiring to detract from the splenâ€" did campaign put up by Hon. Mr. King and his supporters, and the defence put forward by Premier R. B. Bennett and his administration, it may be said that the most powerful factor in the elections was the business depressionâ€" for which, rightly or wrongly, the Bennett government was blamed,â€"and the resultant deâ€" sire for a change on the part of the electors. Good times are said to beâ€"and are, rounding the corner. Hon.
