LETTER FROM C4M0A Editor Public Ledger: I Leamington, Ont., Dec. 29.—I ! wish to thank you for acting as a {representative of the citizens of Ox ford and Granviiie county in asking ail former residents to participate in a home visit during the Christinas holidays. I am sure it would be im possible for all of the formers resi dents of Oxford and the county who reside elsewhere to visit the old home durig Christmas; but we are with you in our thoughts and good wish es for the corning years. We will unite in wishing everyone a merry Christmas and the happiest New Year that they ever had. It has been many years since I lived in dear old Granville, but the place is just as dear to me now as it ever was. It is often saia that "absence makes the heart grow fonder," and that is the way with Oxford and me. I would have liked very much to have visited Oxford this Christmas, but old Santa said I had to spend Christ mas with him in Canada. But if 1 cannot come I will send an invita tion to everyone in dear old Gran ville that they are welcome to visit my home in Leamington anytime Nothing would have pleased the bet ter than to have visited my dear grandmother, Mrs. J. P. Mize this } Christmas, but I am coming back to Granville in some future years to see you all. I am sure that the Public Ledger deserves a great deal of credit foi j coming that long, long distance j twice a week for years to our home j in Canada. Every time it enters our j home, it brings a fond remembrance of years gone by, because it makes us think of that dear old place where it was printed. If every grain of sand between Oxford and Learning ton could only be counted, it would only mean half my love for Oxford. May every grain of sand on that path bring to you good health, great wealth and happiness true. So you } see the wintry winds and snow of i Canada cannot chill my love for Ox- } ford and you. Yes, I am coming back to Oxford, ! to that place w'here I was born, in j [the sunshine on a morn. It's a long, j long way to Oxford, It's a long wmys ] to go. It's a long, long way to Oxford, to the sweetest place I know. But, if I could only take your hands this Christmas day, to tell you of my friendly love for Oxford. And how I hope with all my heart. That joy will always come there to dwell. CLYDE TILLOTSON. Survival of the h'nHest. tTIie Pacific Drug Review) In the eariy days of the temper ance cause, its workers were always on the scent for evidence as to the physical advantages of total absti nence. Having heard of an old man who had attained the ripe age of 9 6 and had never touched a drop of liquor, a committee was rushed to his home to get his sworn state ment to that effect. They had just propped him up in bed, and were guiding the feeble, trembling old hand along the dotted line, when they were startled by a violent dis turbance in the next room—scuffling of feet, falling of heavy furniture and breaking of crockery. "Good heavens, what's that?" asked a com mitteeman. "Oh," whispered the old man, as he sank back exhausted from his efforts, "Graf's father, he's drunk again." A Mind Reader.

Griffith, noted photo piay !director may e^oot some of the big 'scenes in his latest production, ["America," around Ashvilie. Ad vance representatives of the motion picture man are reported to have already arived in the vicinity between ^ Ashville and Hendersonville." Amer ica" is said to be the biggest picture :yet planned by Griffith, and. is to be 'a panorama of the country from col tonial days to the present. It is not I surprising, in fact, such a production i would be incomplete, were not the {wonderful beauties and marvels of nature in the mountains of western North Carolina included in such a moving picture. This is one of Amer ica's beauty spots—one that sooner or later will receive the general re cognition that it deserves.
