LAUDS AGNKS MACPHAIL The following is an editorial in a recent edition of the Parmers' .Sun: Nothing that the Sun can Hay can add to the high esteem in *vhich Agnes Macphail, M.P., is held by her conntituents, by the entire member- ship of the I'.K.O.. by political leaders of all parties and the great majority of the Canadian public. We cannot, however, let the occasion pass with- out offering our congratulntion.t to Miss Macphail on her recent nomina- tion as U.F.O. candidate in the Feiler- al constituency of South (irey. Agnes Macphail has never sought popularity. No one in the lloune has handed out harder blows that she has when ocea- flion demanded. No one in the late parliament was placed in a more awk- ward or delicate po.sition, and no one came through its hectic sessions with more cre<lit. No one in the history ,of Canada has had higher ideals of public service counled with more good confmon sense, than the prosnective member for South (Jrey In Canada's sixteenth I'arliament. .STABLE AM) FARM EQUIPMENT I am agent for stable equip- menl, manufactured by (ho Su- perior Co., also Shinn Flatt light- ning rods.
