Spencer, who was spendi.ng the winter •with him, were at the barn attending to the morning work and the latter left for the house for breakfast, ex pecting his brother to follow immed- iately. His continued absence caus- ed alarm and a search was made and resulted in the finding of hi^ lifeless body in the bam. The late Mr. Spencer was bom in Claremont and came as a child with his parents, the late Mr. and Mrs. William Spencer, and settled on the 8th line of Osprey town^shipj 2 '-2 miles from Feversham. For a r.umbei of years he worked in Kewbury Mich., and then moved back to Os- prey. He was married to Miss Elizabeth Somberger on March 18th 1926, and settled on their farm 4Va miles east of Maxwell on the Gravel Road. Besides his wife there remain to mourn one sister (Mrs. Chris.

The funeral took place on Tuesday afternoon with service being held in Maxwell United church after a short service at the home. Rev. A.

For the past several years he has been in failing health. He wa.s bom in North York and wad a resident in Artemeaia town- ship for a number of years, residing with his parents and received his pub- lic school education in the Portia w school. He attended Collingwood high school and qualified as a teacher by attending Normal, and for some years was principal of the Alliston public school. He abandoned educa- tional work to study dentistry at the Royal College of Dental Surgeons ot Ontario, graduating with honors and a gold medal. He practised in To- ronto for many years until forced to retire a few years ago by ill health. He was a member of St. Andrew's Lodge, A.F.&A.M., of the I.O.O.F. and also of the United church. His wife, Florence Watson Hender- 3on, a daughter, Miss Helen, at home survive, together with one sister, Mrs. John Paul of Feversham, and two brothers. Dr. R. H. Henderson and Samuel Henderson, both of Toronto. The funeral is taking place this Wednesday afternoon with service in St. John's United church at 2 p.m., and interment in Flesherton cemetery. Previous to the remains being brought to Flesherton a service will be held in the parlors of Bates Burial Co., 124 Avenue Road on Tuesday evening at 8 p.m. to which a large number of friends attended. The late Dr. Henderson was a man of a quiet disposition and sterling qualities and was very highly regard- ed by all who knew him. He was always a welcome visitor to town and a pleasing conversationalist, mak- ing his visits a delight. Many friends in Flesherton and district extend to the family their sincere sympathy in their bereavement. Hockey Talk . . Hockey is 01 paramount importance in the sportmg world at the present time. The whole province is agog over the feat of the Maple Leaf pro- fessional team in winning from the Boston Brui.-is Monday night in an overtime game of one hour and forty- five r'..'nutes, the longest game in hockey history. This is a record that will stand for many years. Only one official goal was scored in the 165 minutes of play, and this in itself is a record. The game commenced at 8.30 p.m. Monday and ended 1.48 a.m. Tuesday morning. .\11 honor to the Leafs in their victory, winning the National Hockey League champ- ionship as the team was riddled with injuries and their chances of winning were slim. Another great team is the New- nvarket juniors, who are now making a bid for Dominion honors and the Memorial Cup. Their schedule of games has been so drastic and with injuries to all their players that their win over Montreal on Saturday ex- hibited their "never-say-die" qualities. Dr. D. H. Guy, formerly of Maxwell, s the physician of the team and hejbcr of the United' ^in-ch' The late Mr. Loucks enjoyed the s reported as having stated that it was a crime to have sent the New- market team into the game on Satur- day, after a protest had been made by the Club executive. The O. H. A. claimed the game had to be played or Newmarket would be out of junior hockey for life! If the Newmarket team had refused to play an uprising might have resulted against the rul- ing of the O. H. A. However the boys played on superhuman strength and won. A game lot of lads! The Chatham News has found out that the average man changes his position once every 17 minutes while sleeping. ,We think 17 minutes is a little too long if he is on his back and snoring. Ideal Hills For Fun Say Ski Enibosiasts In recent issues of "The Ski Baa ner,,' a magai-ine issued twice a month by the Toronto Ski Club are described visits to Flesherton by members of that organization, mention of which has previously been made in these columns. They are enthusiastic over the wonderful hills in the Beaver Val- ley, three miles north of this village. The parties were billeted at the Beav- er Fishing Club residence and com- plimented Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Kaitting on the reception griven the members. The following paragraphs are clipped from the article: "One only had to go across the valley to find the most marvellous skiing hill that could be found any- where. It has an average grade ot ahout eighteen degrees. At the top there is open bush running for about one hundred and fifty yards. From there on the hill is open for the rest of the way down, starting with a slight grade, then becoming uneven and bumpy, with a few stones which make turning necessary. B^^low there is a small gap in a fence which has to be negotiated. The lower part 01 the hills are steep and smooth, not unlike Steven's hill at Huntsville.

Loucks Passes ^After an illness of a little more than a week Mr. Pliny Loucks passed away at his home in Chatsworth on Saturday momiub last at the age of 76 years. The late Mr. Loucks was bom in Russell township on March 16th, 185 and came to Flesherton with his wife and family in 1886. Here he engaged in the grist milling business and alsc h?d quite a sale of flour, which he milled himself. His mill was situat- ed on the Boyne river, two miles north of Flesherton. In iy22 he disposed of his business to Mr. Wm. Newell and moved to Markdale, where he re- sided four years. He then moved to Chatsworth in 1926 and with his youngest son, Cecil, engaged in the garag" business. He was married June 17, 1880, to Miss Alice Fetterly, of Ru-sse'l town- ship, who predeceased him in 1929. He is survived by two daughters, Stella, Mrs. Wyrille, of Markdale, and Bella of VancoUT.--; three other daughters passed awa.. some time ago; also three sons, Walterr Vancouv- er: Edwin, Flesherton. and Cecil, ot Chatsworth.

If we could keep these germs out of our bodies, they could do us no harm, because all the mischief they do to us" occurs after they get inside our bodies. They usually gain entrance through the mouth: in other words, we eat them or drink them. Our ability to keep out disease germs lies very largely in our own hands, and this is meant literally and not figuratively. Our own hands are, unless we take proper care of them, the means whereby many germs are carried past our lips into a nice warm, moist body, where the germs delight :o be. As we go about our daily work or play, our hands are sure to become soiled. Because of the uses to which we put our hands, it follows inevit- ably that they become dirty or soiled. They are contaminated with germs, some of which may be disease germs. There is no harm in having germs on your hands ^s long as they stay there. The unbroken skin £revent3 any germs from entering in that way. The danger of having germs on your hands is that they may be carried into your mouth or nose. This happens if you put your un- washed hands to your face, bite your finger nails or moisten your fingers with saliva to turn the pages of a book or magazine. If food is touched with the unwash- eu ^^''sers and therj eaten.; the effect is just the same as if tits lingers hai been put directly into the mouth. We can avoid practically all of the very real dangers that confront us from these causes by paying atten- tion to two simple, but very import- ant points. The first is that we should keep our hands away from our faces. The only time unwashed hands need to go near the face is when the handker- chief is used. Some i)eople keep touching their faces with their hands, pects to have 2!300 trees producing i and so there is danger. Watch your- vcry shortly.

Youi Grey To Pay Costs The County of Grey wiill bear the ^ your mind to stop the practice. The second point is that before yoa , touch food, before you eat. your hands need to be thoroughly washed. After washing, remember to use your own towel. This i£ just as important as is the washing. Common towels spread germs from one user to an- other, and they should never be used.
