Devoted and trustful, " ^ Courageous and brave, The richest of treasures To others she gave; Obedient in all things, To Christ as her King She loved, with His people, His praises to sing. She drank from those founatains Which never shall cease, Her light in the Household Brought gladness a"d peace; Her gifts and her moments Found constant employ For Him, in whose service Is comfort and joy. With trustful devotion And confident prayer, The ones whom she cherished She left in His care; Believing His promise Her heart was at rest. She knew He would send them Whatever is best. Through much tribulation Which darkened the past, She entered tVio haven In triumph at last; With love ever growing At length she became A rilgrim victorious. Through faith in His name. To Him, whose protection She ownod :n pa -h breath. She wished to bring glory By life or by death: To Him, so often. Had answered her plea, She said with rejoicing All glory shall be. Rev. Thos.

Get rid or them; pass them on *o th" r.-xt place. i We wouldn't be surprised to find them in rv-Hc-e court at Woodstock or Hrantford, and it i-* possible they may receive the official kick out of town again. No town cares niuch rSou't the next one down the line. A tramp Is a non-productive asset at best, .and all he needs to do is keen on promising to get out of town.

Jas. A. Stewart GROCERIES PHONE 46 WE DELIVER IN TOWN About Deer Hunting Editor ef Tlu. Advance Dear Sir. Knowing you as we do to be a good citizen and a real sport, I take this opportunity of r.sking some ruestions. Is there a game warden in the County of Grey? If so we have not known his name. We understand there is a irume warden in Owen Sound, on a good salary paid Ly tho government. A i ; -to the extent of his limits we are not in.'ormed, but would suppose i 1 . would be for tho protection of game in tho town. Can anyone, who carries a trapper's license, go on the crust when it carrier, the h'^tnds but not fhe tleer, to wher: t!'" deer have takon shelter !'.>; the winter, and let his hounds loose, ilriving the dear i;ito the clearances ;:r.d on the public highway, pursued by his bounds, with the pretence he is fox hunting? On what condition does ar.y cne take the offica of game w;. den? If v.-e are rightly informed he taken the office and works w^.ivnit salary. With authority, if iu f:r<!:i ary person or ners >ns vblatiri;: the ;;amc law, he can bring- that person to justice, have him fin: 1 ;', to \vhi h ! 13 entitled to one half. Nov.-. : ;;y his nei"hbo. H.- v:-la! ! '-. . law. YJU knew that, anyone \:!n v.-ou'.d break the law wiu'd rcr ths '. i\v. .\'.<w what i.s ho to do ii' I)L- enforc-ei-, the law? Brinjt upon hiivrell' the- wrath and indignation of his neighbor and all who are in sympathy with him 7 Tho only way for him to save trouble is to keep rui<'t a-d divide the spoil with his neighbor. In such a case he becomes the deei-'s greatest enemy. There are others \vjio would accept the office of game warden for reasons best known to themselves at a lime when they are expected to be looking it Ver the interest of the game, takes his license and goes north during the hunting season, leaving the game here to the mercy of those who are neither citizens or sports. There is no satisfaction for those who respect the law and allow the deer to graze on their farms whi!c their wives go out to admire their beauty. The deer become so tame t'hey are easily trailed by th^sr. 1 who have no regard for the law, nor respect for themselves. Mr. Editor, will there be any danger of the country being overrun with with these harmless deer, so long as the one dealing in fur can boast of buying three hundred deer hides in one season? Does anyone know another firm employed by the govern- ment working on such a salary, self sustaining. OLD SPRT.
