They sure gave  you a-warm reception on your return���������  but you   deserved   it old man.' I wasf  glad to hear of the recent enlistment  in the valley,    Things have quietened  down here since their last heavy bombardment but they seem to be having  a warm time in the Balkans.  ' It looks  like a long, long way toTipperary yet.  Harry and   Billy are "keeping fine.    I  am as you have piobably heard by now  in the band and  having a,  little better  time of it  than I used to in the Machine   Gun   Section.    They   have    now  double crews  on   it which   does away  ���������with'the 15 and 16 day spells   we were  having in the front line when  I was in  it.   We have it all over theni in artill-  eiypow.    All   kinds of shells   big anil  small.    I saw   another  German  aero  plane brought down behind our lines a  few   days ago.   The   pilot was   killed  and the observer wounded.   Both bad  been   awarded the Iron   Cross.    I irn-  derstand that it was armed with a.Coll  machine Gun   captuied from   the 14th  Canadian   Battalion   at Ypres.    Some  Souvenir eh?  It was brought down as a result of  a duel with one of our own aeroplanes.  It was quite exciting watching them,  I have seen all the hoys in the 22nd.  C. M.

EDMOND, Prop.  :k$  I  When you pay your bills, give your  grocer first money. He supplies yon'  with the wherewithal  for   life���������food.  Ooe of the most important things in  the world is to get something to eat,  If you must put off paying anyone,  therefore let it be anyone BUT the  grocer.  He is not wealthy. He seldom has a  surplus in the bank. His money is all  invested in merchandise and accounts.  He buys of wholesale houses who sell  on stated terms and have experts who  are paid to "get the money" when due.  He cannot pay them with excuses.  He can't afford collection expenses.  He should not be expected to. If he is  courteous enough to give you credit,  show him equal courtesy by paying  promptly and without making him  extra expense.  He has no security. What you buy  of him is soon consumed and he cannot get it back. He trusts you on  your honor alone. Who else does as  much for you?  He asks no favors���������needs no charity,  but is entitled to a square deal.  Be square���������be fair���������be just.  PAY YOUR   GROCER   FIRST!���������  Retail Grocers' Review  The public is urged to exercise every  care in packing parcels for the troops,  as careful packing is absolutely essential to ensure delivery of the parcels in  good order, ,  Parcels sent abroad require a higher  standard of packing than is necessary  in the Canadian Parcel Post, and this  applies with even greater force to parcels for*the'troops. Those which are  inadequately packed run great risk of  damage or loss of contents.  Thin card board boxes, such as shoe  boxes; and thin wooden boxes, should  not be used; norrloes a single sheet of  ordinary brown paper afford sufficient  protection. The; following forms 'of  packing are recoihmended.  (1) Strong double cardboard  boxes, preferably those made of  ��������� coi'riigated'i-nrdboai-d, and , having lids which completely enclose  the sides of the boxes.  (2) Strong wooden boxes.  (3) Several folds of stout packing  ,. papei.  (4) Additional security is afforded  by an outer covering of linen,  calico or canvas, which should  be securely sewn up. ���������  The address of the paieel should he  written in ink on.the cover preferably  in two places.  The address of the sender of the  parcel should also he stated in oidei  that it may he returned if undeliver-  ahle. The contents of the parcel  should be stated ' in writing on the  ���������cover.     - -   ���������* ��������� .������..������-���������  In the case of parcels sent to the  Mediterranean Force, they should be  as nearly'round as possible, and- well  padded with shavings, crumpled paper,  or similar protective material. The  outer covering should consist of strong  linen, calico or canvas, and should be-  securely sown up. The use of wooden  iu- metal boxes with square corners i.s  undesirable, as parcels so packed are  liable to injure other parcels in transit. No perishable articles should- be  sent, and anything likely to become  soft or sticky, such as chocolates,  should be enclosed in tins, Parcel*  merely wrapped in paper or packed in  thin cardboard boxes, such as- shoe  boxes, cannot'he accepted.  British Women's  National Anthem  In order to facilitate the handling  of mail at the front and to insure  prompt delivery it is requested that  all mail be  addressed as follows:���������  (a) Regimental Number   (b)liank    ....  (c) Name    (d) Squadron,   Battery   or   Com  pany.........    .....  (e) Battalion,   Regiment, (or other  unit)  Stall'   appointment or  Department '..........  (f) Canadian  Contingent ...   (g) British Expeditionary Force. ..  (li) Army   Post   Office,    London,  England   ��������� Unnecessary mention of higher formations, such as Inigades, divisions, is  .strictly forbidden, and causes delay.  Montreal, Que.  Dear Sir:  Here is a real news item. The enclosed letter came to a gentleman who  does liot care to have his name published but for whom we can   vouch.   ���������  It seems to us the women of Canada  will he glad to sing this Woman's National Anthem arid we send it to you  to use as you'may see fit.  Yours truly,  A. McKIM; Ltd.  Dear   While in London recently I came in  touch ' with a little incident, which J  think will interest you.  I attended, one day, at noon, a recruiting meeting in front of the Mansion House. A great crowd of men  and women listened to the recruiting  Sergeants, all of whom had "done  their bit" at the front. -   -  A lady wirh a magnificent voice,  sang patriotic songs, which perhaps  were more effective than the speeches  of the recruiting Sergeants. At Unclose of the meeting, it was announc  ed that after singing "The King", the  lady would siiig "The Woman's Na  tional Anthem." '.  Then in   a splendid voicoshe sang���������  "God save our splendid men  Send them safe home again  God save our men  Keep them victorious  Patient and chrivalous,  They are so dear to us,  Goil save our men." ,  "i'fLs.shv sajsjj, evevy mar*, f-'i.'ii.'.rl-uncovered and with bowed head, and  there were not many dry eyes.  1 think it would be a good thing if  the women of Canada would learn this  as "The Biitish Women's National  Anthem" for surely it is the prayer ol  every loyal British woman.  'After the meeting I went up to tin  singer, handed her my caid, and asked her for the words she had just sung.  When she saw that I was from Montreal she said "Oh, I sang in MontieaI.  and I will be glad to send the words to  the women of Canada."  She wrote them on the back of tin-  blue envelope, which contained my  passport.  Very truly yours,  < )  Fruit Packing Schools  Will Be Organized  The Department of Agriculture will'  again offer Fruit Packing Sohools'dur-  ing the coming winter. While the-  supply of packers, was nearly equal to  the demand last year, tliere was a decided shortage in many districts this  year owing to the enlistement of a  number of our fomer packers, and it is  hoped that advantage will be'taken of  this opportunity to supply the deficiency. As in previous years,'the local  administration of the Packing Schools  will be placed in the-hands- of a res-  ponsible body such as the Farmers'  Institute, the Fruit Growers' Association, or the Board of Trade.  The responsible organization must  guarantee not less than twelve pupils,  hut not more than fifteen, ata fee of  t wo dolla.rs each, to take the twelve  lessons of two and a half hours each,-  the School extending over the week,  AVliere twenty-four to thiity pupils  can be secured, a double Packing  School will be arranged. The hall  provided should'not be smaller than 30  by 15 ft., well lighted, and sufficiently  heated to prevent freezing of the fruit  at night.

Christmas   greeting    cards   at   the  Hedley Gazette. ���������.���������-.,-  Some of Ed Burr's friends are thinking seriously   of getting him   toentei  for the. next   big world's   auto racing  event.    He is the best   bet yet.    He is  the   white   hope  of   the auto   world.  While so   far he has   broken   no time  records,   the   speed, bug not   having  taken up   permanent  -residence'in his  cranium���������yet, still   he has made  a record   that   will stand   some   beating.  The other   day  lie was   requested   to  take a man up to Princeton and while  waiting for   the man   several   others  appeared   who  wanted   to make   the  trip.    Finally   he   had ,a   load   when  along came   a pessimist   declairing 'it  could   not     be   done.    The     Gazette  learns that   this is   an   exceptionally  mild winter   at   Princeton   and   that  theyonly have about 2 feet of snow so  far.    Mr. Pessimist said the trip could  not be made.    Ed. said it could and to  prove it he made  it and   returned the  same afternoon.    And now Edmonds  thinks   he  could   make   the   trip   on  horseback and   Andy Winkler  would  not be   afraid to   try   it by   airship, if  there  was   someone   else   to run   the  ship.  More   Xinas goods  to   arrive soon.  L. C. Rolls & Co.  In districts where it is impossible to  secure the above mentioned number of  pupils, a THREE DAY PACKING  SCHOOL maybe arranged for with a  minimum, of eight and not over twelve  pupils, at a fee of one dollar per pupil,  10 take six lessons of two and a half  hours each.  The Department of-Agriculture pro-  vids the instiuctor and pays his expenses, supplies packing paper and tables,  andbfarsthe   cost   of   furit   and   all  other legitimate expenses except   that  ��������� if the secretarial work, the rent of the  hall,   and   its   heating  anil   lighting.  Local fruit will be used where possible  and the Department will pay the    legitimate market price as determined by  the   instructor or. inspector.    At   the  lime of making the application for the  packing .school the responsible   organization is requested to reserve 2A   to   3  boxes   offiuit   for   each   pupil.    The  harder varieties, such   as   Ben  Davis,  are preferred.    It need not be graded,  tint must l<e in good condition and not  smaller than 2$ inches in diameter.    If  no local fruit is obtainarle, the Department should be  notified   at   the  time  the application is made for the school.  -'In addition to   the    packing   work,  modern   methods   and equipment   for  packing, packing for.   exhibition,   and  the Fruit Marks Act, will   be   studied.  Pupils who score 75% in the Picking  School and put up   a   creditable   pack  for   the  Department   prizes,   the  following autumn, will receive a diplona  certifying to the same   from   the   Department.  The Department expects that the  instructor will be met on bis arrival  by some responsible person, who  should provide him with all the necessary information, so as to get the  School uniler way without loss of  time.

STANLEY, Editor  GOME NO W AND LET US  REASON  TOGETHER  The holiday season is again  fast approaching. You will, no  doubt, be the purchaser and the  recipient of numerous tokens,  the interchange Of which is  part of a custom, perpetuated  through the generations and  doubtless arising from the efforts to put into practice the  spirit enunciated by the heavenly visitors on that first great  Christmas morning: "Glory to  God in the highest and on earth  peace, good will to men."  Tlie purchases you make will  be designed to show your participation in the spirit of the joyful 'occasion. This in itself a  commendable actio.:. But why  not enter altogether into the  spirit of the event? Why not  resolve, to show this spirit to  the nicin at home, your neighbor. The man who keeps the  store'in town, pferhaps across  the street, or in the next block,  , or wherever it may be. The  idea is to enter into the spirit  of Christmas by buying at  home.  There is a reciprocity of town  life which itself ought to demand that we buy first from  the merchants whose., money is.  invested at home, whose taxes  are'paid at home, whose children intermingle with our children, whose characters we read  and know. Whose reputation  is always before us, and whose  sympathies are often ours.  The Gazette has gone into the  matter     somewhat   with    our  home merchants and is in a position   to  state   that   they   are  each and every one prepared to  compete actually with any mail  order house sending catalogues  into our peaceful valley.   When  you want something go first to  your home  merchant, who perhaps now has an account under  you name   in his   ledger.    Tell  him what   you want   and  how  much money you are prepared  to expend for it and give him a  chance to   figure  on   the order  and if he can't supply the goods  or procure   them for you,   and  no one   in   town can   then it is  time enough to send away.  Each of the merchants in  Hedley and in Keremeos has  prepared for an increased and  an extra holiday business and  the goods ..are on display, you  can go in and see, handle try on  or examine and if they are not  what you want they will endeavor  to procure for   you the  In line with this sujboct we  clip the following from the Vic.  toi'i-m, edited by "Dad" Simpson a pioneer in journalism in  the West and one of the most  progressive editors in our fair  province:  Again there is another important phase of the question that  should not   be overlooked,   and  that is the   fact that the home  merchant is contributing all of  the time for  the   promotion of  any movement that means advancement  for the city and increased    advantage   for   every  resident.    The    outside   dealer  never contributes one cent, and  we all must    bear in mind that  when   you send a   dollar away  from home IT NEVER, COMES  BACK.    Buy at home and your  money   is  kept   in  circulation  and some of it is bound to come  back to your  own pocket.    We  have in mind   at this writing a  certain town iii the interior  that should be a large city, if  one could judge from the payroll each month. But it is not,  and further more the town cannot be termed a prosperous one.  Why? Tho cause is a simple  one. Seventy-five per cent of  the . big payroll, or perhaps  more is sent away each month  and IT NEVER COMES BACK.  That is why the town still  continues to be a -village and  that is why opportunities for  prosperity both for individuals  and the village as a whole are  circumscribed. We are pleased  to know that there is to be a  campaign of education along  the line of home buying. It  should be as intelligent as it is  vigorous. If the people fully  understand that it is to their  benefit   to trade at   home thev  The Convenience of a  Joint Account  ��������� A JOINT Account may be opened in the  ���������**��������� names of two or more persons. ,' Whichever one can most conveniently, reach the bank  can then deposit the joint funds or withdraw  the cash needed.
