TIMB TABLE lAII Set for Twelfth Celebration Thursday I Very Large Funeral for I the Late Arnold Brown One of the saddest events that has taken place in Plesherton for many years was that on Friday, when the remains of the late Arnold Brown were interred in Flesherton cemetery. A large crowd gathered at the house where the service was being held and showed their sympathy to the parents in their bereavement and their high regard to the departed one who was one of the most highly respected boys in the community. His ready smi!e and cheery disposition made many warm friends, who were deeply grieved when the sad occurrence be- came known. The deceased had enter- ed Durham hospital and had under- gone an operation for the removal of his tonsils, which was apparently suc- cessful when he suddenly took a heart attack and passed away immediately 1 before any assistant could be given. The doctors worked for three quart- ers of an hour, but he failed to rally. Deceased was a member of Flesher- ton United church and was in his 16th year and was the only son of Mr. ( and Mrs. John J. Brown of the East i Backline, Artemesia, and had been I attending Flesherton high school for I the past three years and had tried ! his examinations at the finish of the j past term. Rev. Jos.

The new Whippet Six upsets all pre- vious standards of motor car value. It has an array of mechanical features, such as 7-bering Crankshaft, air-clean- er and thermostat, never found in a car of its price before. Among the features of the bodies are unusual roominess, harmonious lac- quers, smart cadet-type visors, remote door controls, attractive window re- veals, extended dash panels affording greater leg roo.m. and quick-acting cowl ventilator. ' ^ The new Whippet Six is unusually smooth and silent, due to its 7-bcaring Crankshaft (instead of the usual 3 or 4) and its silent timing chain (a feature of the highest-priced cars). It is exceptionally iwwerful on hills: it has flexi- bility never before obtainable in any car of this size or price. GEO. F. BRACKENBURY CLOSED ON SI NO.VY FROM I :S0 to 7 p.m.
