"It is to the pioneers of big movements that the credit and honor belong, not to the followers" said lecturer on vege- tarianism in Highland village, and he exhorted his hearers to become pioneers of vegetarianism in that neighborhood, says Tit Bits.
 At the conclusion of his lecture he was warmly shaken by the hand by an old lady, who thanked him for speaking so kindly of her son Donald.
 "But think you have made a mis- take," replied the lecturer. "I don't know your son. and I'm not aware that I mentioned him tonight"
 Yes, yes !" said the old lady. "Don- ald is one of those pioneers of big move ments."
 "Oh,. I see." replied the lecturer "What is your son, madam?"

Letters From the People
Roast for the Men.
.the Editor of The News

To the Editor of The News;
 I see in this weeks issue of The News that the proposed ladies' night and ban quet failed to pass by vote of Business Mems Association. It was my great privilege to receive an invitation to the 0. B. M. A. banquet and 1t seemed to me that it was a great night for Canaan. Of course I was not acquainted with all the distinguished guests that sat at table, but there were some mighty fiue fellows there and seemed to enjoy the banquet $2.50 worth and whole lot more, and when I saw that your associa- tion had thought of giving the dear ladies banquet so that our wives. sis ters and sweethearts could put on their pretty gowns and sit beside their diQni- fled lords, who by the way, do not spare the price of dress suits and pink powder to be seen at their very best, what is 80. 50 to them on such an occasion? But when you touch their pocket book for $2 plate for the women-can't tbink of it too much; can't afford it besides it is pay out all the time for suppers and theatres and we must draw the line.
 Now to my mind If some of the dear men would stop at some other indul- gences, instead of drawing the line on wasting their good money on the ladies, It WOulQ LOOK mlRnJy SlgnI more good sense. Why, if some of these dignified financiers should lose by death, thelr dear ones, they would load on the mourning until they were bow-legged carrying their sorrow. also notice that many of the men that were at the ban quet and other swell functions are gen. erally unaccompanied by the women folk. The ladies have more functions than they can attend to now So they leave them to entertain themselves. Now have lived years enough to know that when a man gets so he is above talk. ing his women folks out to entertain ments then he IS mighty poor com mpany even for men. If wife is going to lose those little courtesies shown to them, which is part of their very life, for good. ness sake where should they look to for such favors unless it is in their own hus- bands? If any woman that has lived few years with average man of Canaan has not earned the privilege of at least sitting at one banquet and enjoying the best that money and true love can possi- bly, afford, then she had better join the hiking Suffragists and play the game alone. Subscriber.
