Wright of Flesherton passed away in Toronto on Wednes- day afternoon of last week of per- nicious anemia. He had gone to Tor- onto for treatment, and our citizens were much surprised and pained when they heard of his death there. The remains were" brought to Flesherton by the very handsome hearse of the Bates Burial Co., under whose dir- ection the interment took place. Mr. Wright was bom on the west back line, Artemesia, his father being the late William Wright. Besides the sorr- owing widow there are three sisters and three brothers living: Mrs. Geo. Boyce, Ceylon; Mrs. Wm. Carter, Markdale; Mrs. A. McPhatter, Owen Sound; John of Wingham; Robert of Edmonton , and Fred on the home- stead. He married Miss Eleanor Cor- bett, and years ago bought out the grocery store owned by the late Wm. Bamhouse and afterwards purchased the Richardson Block, where he ran a general store until about five years ago. Besides being a member of the Masonic Order Mr. Wright was also a member of Orange Valley L.O.L. No. 509, and each 12th of July found him in the parade, and almost always taking the prize for the best fifer in the parade. The funeral took place to Flesher- ton cemetery on Friday afternoon la3t, conducted by the members of the Prince Arthur Lodge, A. F. & A. M., of which he was a member. I The flowers consisted in part of a wreath by the brothers and sisters; pillow, by his wife; wreath, Masonic \ Lodge; wreath from L. O. L. No. 509; spray from Eastern Star Lodge; spray, village ladies; spray, F. Van- dusen and family; spray. Miss Annie Howard; spray, Mr. and Mrs. J. Lat- imer; spray, Mrs. Hanley; bouquet, Mrs. Wilcock; bouquet, Mrs. Thistle- thwaite. The pallbearers were members of the Masonic Order. The late W. L. Wright was a man song by Miss Dean "Dear Old Granny | Mine," which was very sweetly rend- j ered and touched the hearts of all. Humorous readings were -given by Miss E_ Edgar and Miss M. Culham. Mrs. Will Robinson of Nottawa de- lighted all by her singing of "Love's Old Sweet Song" and "Silver Threads Among the Gold." The selection which caused much laughter was given by Misses Dean and Culham. dressed to represent a ; couple of fifty years ago, and sang "Put on your old Grey Bonnet" anJ "When we were a Couple of Kids." A roll call of the grrandmothers then took place, with thirty-five on the roll, I each answering with the number of-j her grandchildren. A prize was giv- , en to the one having the largest num- i ber. Mrs. Archie Mclnnis, an old resident of Osprey, now living with! her daughter in Collingwood, had the honor of winning this, having the large number of thirty grandchildren, Mrs. D. McDonald next having 28 grandchildren and 12 great grand- children. Reeve Taylor presented each with a box of bon bons, to Mrs. Mclnnis for having the largest number of grandchildren, and to Mr. McDonald for having the oldest grandmother present. She has attaine the wonder- ful age of 86 years and is still living on her farm on the fourth line of Os- prey, where she has resided for many years, and prides herself on still being able to milk a cow.. Both of those great grandmothers are wonderfully bright and smart for their age. This Reeve Taylor claimed, was due to the fact of them living in this prosperous township of Osprey. "" The grandmothers were then seat- ed at the beautifully decorated tables, well laden with good things to eat. Mrs. Ewing made a splendid toast- mistress and the grandmothers very ably responded to the various toasts. Especially good were the speeches of Mrs. J. Lougheed in replying to the toast to "Our Grandmothers" and that of Mrs. A. Tompkins in replying to "Our Institute." After almost one hundred had par- taken of tea the aftemonn came to a close with the singing of the National Anthem. took possession of Memorial Park tar I the week.

PETERS ONE EVENING RECENTLY AND FOLLOWING IS THE CONVERSATION TH.\T ENSUED: Mrs. Jones: "Oh, Mrs. Peters, what lovely furniture you have got since I was here last. Where did you get it?" Mrs. Peters: "Why, at Findlay's, of course. I always buy at home now. I used to think that we could do better at Eaton's, but I have found out since Mr. Findlay came that we can do just as well here as sending away.' Mrs. Jonea: ''Yes, but don't you think that you get a little better service at Eaton's." Mrs. Peters: "No, I don't. That is one tiling that Mr. Findlay has demonstrated very clearly since starting here, that he is out to give real service. For instance, look at the service he is now giving in Flowers. Why, all you need to do is order a spray of flowers through him and he puts the card on it and delivers it and displays it in the proper surroundings. Then if you find anything wrong with any piece of furniture he is alwajB willing to make it right" Mrs. Jones: "Well, of course, I live quite a piece away and did not know this, but am glad to hear it for Flesherton needs men in business who are willing to render a little more service." Mrs. Peters: "Talking about getting things cheaper at Eaton's. Now, Uke that pair of wicker chairs. They are $14.25 in Eaton's and I got them from Mr. Findlay for $14.00 Then when I bought my chesterfield suite from him there were one or two changes I wished made and he had them made without a word, and that is one things about his store. Both Mrs. Findlay and he are always obliging any time you go in now, to show you the difference. Some time ago I sent to Eaton's for a half dozen of those kitchen chairs and they cost me $5.90. and when I came to glue them together I broke one of the legs and I went to Findlay's store and asked him for a leg for a chair snd he got me one. When I told him what I had done he did not get sore like some merchants do. but just showed me my mistake, as he had the same half dozen chairs for $6.00_... I can tell you I will never attempt to glue six chairs again for ten cents, and then I had to fall back on him anyway.*' Mrs. Jonea: "I have heard that Mr. Findlay is a great booster for Flesherton." Mrs. Peters: "Not alone for Flesherton, but everything that is for the betterment of the community. He gets behind it and boosts, and I believe we ought to boost the man who is trying to give us goods at right prices, and render the service which his business demands." Mrs. Jones: "Well, Mrs. Peters, I am glad to have had this talk with you, for we were thinking of getting some new furniture and we will just call on Mr. Findlay and see what he can do for us."
