To a person I passing through a town with well- i kept lawns it makes an impression on the mind when he sees beauty in a place, an impression that is not likely to leave him for a long time. We have the natural beautiful surround- ings in Flesherton already that make people remark on the charm of the place. One added touch is the old commons on the north side of Mem- orial Park, which has been levelled and sown to grass whch is growing profusely, and a line of maple trees growing along the front and sides, make a big change in the appearance of that street. Beautifying a town' takes quite a large amount of work, but in time a transition of the town would take place. In the meantime before other work could be accomp- lished the removal of fences along the ffont of resdences woulti be a big im- provement. Give the idea a try.

Mathewson Held Thursday PLEASING SERVICES IN THE CHURCHES The funeral of the late Mrs. F. J. Mathewson.whose death was chronicl- ed last week, was held from her res- idence in Fle."!herton on Thursday afternoon, ,Kev. H. H. Eaton, her pastor, condiicted the service -in the Methodist church, at which a large number of friends and sympathizers attended. The text was taken from 1 Samuel 20:3, "There is but astep between me and death," and a very comforting discourse was given by the pastor. The church choir sang two appropriate selections. The floral offerings were unusually "lavish and beautiful including sprays from Mr. and Mrs. Cunningham, J. Lever and family and N. Manning and family, Mr. and Mrs. Patrick, Mr. and Mrs. Ruckell, Mr. and Mrs. Lome .Stephenson, Orange Valley LO.L., G. Brackenbury and G. Long, McTavish family, irfr. and S4". F. J. Thurston, Miss Irene Wilson, Mrs. W. Alcox, Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Thurston, T)r. and Mrs. Ottewell; wreaths from family, Young Ladies' Bible Class and teach- ers of the Methodist S. S.; mat of pansies from Jack and Dorothy Cunn- ingham and a pillow from the Toron- to Line residents. The late Mrs. Mathewson was very highly respected in the community and was a devoted wife and mother. She leaves to mourn her loss, besidi.-s her mother, five sisters and three brothers, Mrs. J. Lever, Flesherton, Mrs. Lome Stephenson, Belmont, Mrs. Ruckfe and Mrs. Patrick, Hamillon, Ml^. Cunningham, Palmerston and Herb and Geo. Manning of Brussels and Will .Manning in B.C., all, except- ing the latter, attending the funeral. Deceased was born at Brussels, Ont., 50 years ago and after her marriage 2.3 years ago came to Flesherton, where she has since resided. The union was blessed with four children, Olive (Mrs. Norman Wiley) of Owen Sound. Freda, at home, and twins, who died in infancy. .Among those who attended the funer- al from a distance were Mr. and Mrs. Robt. Mathewson, Newmarket, Russel Mathewson of Toronto and Mrs. !>parling of Brussels. The palllaearers were the two broth- ers and four brothers-in-law of tho deceased. Mr. W. Brooks of .Shelbume oc- cupied the Methodist pulpit on Sun- day, morning and evening, and gave two sermons that were received with much praise by the audiences. This young man is one who will make his mark in the ministerial world or we miss our guess. He is only 19 years of age, but would compare favorably with men of a much wider experience. He has a splendid voice, writh clear enunciation, evidently a clear brain and is a young man of much promise. His subject at night was, "Handling world problems with God," and he held the keen attention of his aud- ience while he outlined many of the most serious problems that confront the world to-day. Prominent among these problems he placed Sunday motoring. Instead of doing as we were commanded, by resting on the Sabbath day, too many jumped into their cars and tried to see how far they could travel in a day, then came back and told what a fine ride they had and everything went fine. His strictures on this subject were timely. This service was favored by Mrs. (Dr.) Roszell of Caledonia wi^ a couple of very fine violin solos with organ accompaniment. She also as- sisted in all the hymns, and those who were not present Sunday night missed a rare treat. Mrs. Roszell also favored the Presbyterian congregation in the afternoon in the same manner, the church being well filled. Mrs. Roszell recently received her diploma for intermediate violin at the Hamilton conservatory, which is in connection with the Canadian Acad- emy of Music.
