The world knows the English as a race of enor Keep Your Eye On Painter Lands The last five sales have been from residents who reside away from Grande Itonde valley. It apparently is the same old story: Home people as a rule do not realize the opportunities that are here. The first settlers of this valley did not appreciate the value of that large fertile tract we now call the Sandridge. It was the very last land in the valley to be occupied. A few years from now not a few of those who read these lines will state: "I did not know that Palmer valley would ever be the prosperous country it is." It will be too late then. The opportunity is now. No experiment. Many families have already demonstrated the productiveness of the soil.

It can't be " fct it is cry unfair for an individual to be signaled as a hero. They say it is not treating the other fellow right for one to be press agented and heralded all over the world as the doer of a great deed be cause every day there are hundreds upon hundreds of men who are risking their lives in the deadliest of danger ous undertakings and are never even heard of. Luck, one is told, makes more heroes than anything else luck which provides the opportunity pnd luck which lets one be seen while grasping it. The French look at it in much the ' J,same way but if anything the British j carry the idea further. A French avia J tor is called an "ace" when he brings 'down his fifth enemy aeroplane and gets his name in the papers. There are many English airmen who arc ces yet whose names have never ap peared outside the official secret com muniques circulated among the higher staff officers only. Here is a concrete example: A cer tain lieutenant of the Royal Flyng corps was mentioned in one of these communiques. It seems he had en gaged an enemy aeroplane, fought a duel with it among the clouds, and downed it fairly and squarlbely. Hop ing to make an exception of this case permission was sought to use the avi ator's name. It was courteously, but firmly, refused. What he had done was not to his own personal glory but to the glory of the R. F. C. And when the Royal Flying corps is asked about it, it insists the honor is the army s. So it goes. The Canadians pool their glory with the South Africans and the Anzacs and the Irish and the Scotch and all the rest, and altogether they heap it into the lap of Britania. It is trite to say it is a war of anony mous heroes but that is just what it is and the British are so very, very anony mous about it that they run the risk of having the world say they can't be doing vary much. Nor do they care, apparently. The idea is that a hero who is a hero because he has an audi ence is not a real hero. The real thing does a brave act because he can't help doing it, am' when it is done his own satisfaction over having done his bit as best he could, without shirking, is the best reward he can have.
