Proton Station was shocked to learn of the death of Mr. Thos. Wauchope. which occurred on Monday, May 2<Jth at Dobbington at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Harold Thompson. Mr. Wauchope has livetl practically all his life' in or near Proton Station, until a few weeks ago, when he and Mrs. Wauchope went to Dobbington.

Mr. Young, the student minister, has r'arted a young peoples class on Thursday evenings. We (trust it may be well attended. In reply to Mr. Fred Hale's letter published in The Advance of May 24, rt! the finances of Fevers ham school. He asjcrtj that the present school board had employed me as their pub- licity agent. Of course he knew that was all popycock on his part, as he was present at the meeting of the ratepayers of S. S. No. 7, Osprey, which the school board had called to appoint a trustee in the place of Mr. Black, who had resigned, and to con- sider the financing of our schools. He heard it all and knew that I had reported it just as the present trus- tees reported it to the ratepayers at that meeting. He heard it all, but never opened his mouth. Why does he accuse them of employing me as their publicity agent. He knew better and if he knew they were wrong, why did he not correct them and not throv.- a monkey wrench, as he says at them after the meeting. No sir, he never cheeped then, but writes a gl'eat long letter to The Advance keelhauling both your correspondent and the trus- tees. Well, the ratepayers got the trustee they wante-d and the trustees appointed Mr. Harvey Pedlar their sec.-treas., or rather their sec.-treas. was appointed trustee by acclamation. As to the S1600 he talks about, the school board has no account of it yet, but perhapj Mr. Hale had ag- count of that in the part torn out of the cash book when he handed it over. If you have it there, hand it over, Fred, and save them hunting it. As to his taking the books and financing the schools, he never v.-as any better financing anything than the men v.'ho have the job on their hands nov.- and if he can do it, they sure can. The« he intimates that I quesiioned the honesty of the auditors, Mr. Long, Mr. Heitman and Mr. Frar.cis. He knows that is bunk, too, for Mr. Fran- cis and Mr. Heitman only had his ac- counts to audit from Jan. 1st, 193o. Then he says that I am bucking an institution designed to raise the stand- ard of intelligence of our young people, what a pity, Fred, that you and I did not have the privilege of attending such an institution when you and I were young; how much more respond for them, independent of it is too late now for either of us. But say, was it not carelessness on your part to le-t your children tear out a part of the school cash book, which you claim they did, and "aisc careless of you for not attending trj business of the county grants to oui ' schools and causing you and another trustee at the time a right to drivi to Owen Sound. Had not Mr. Heit- man, our Deputy-Reeve at the time, not helped you out you would have been out of luck, as the county coun- cil had to pass the estimate for your grant, but you had not sent in the request for it. I could give you my reasons for not being in favor of the new school from the beginning, but will close by reminding Fred that I am expecting him to buy me the silk plug hat he bet me against a cigar that the rate- payers would not have to pay any ol the 5,000 debc-'.itures of the new school as there is only five of the 15 year debenture paid yet. Now, Fred, if you road anything in the Feversham items in any of the papers who print them that doesn't suit you don't blame any Company or Corporation for employing me to re- port for them. Just blame me. The correspondence will be continued so long as the papers want me to cor- respond for them, independent of whether you like tiie items or not. One thing I am sorry for though is that the correspondents to the papers don't get so well paid as you did when you were sec.-treas. up to the last part of your service. Before that you received $50.00 per year for your services and a number of sec.- treasurers handled the business be- fore you for the public school and the first and second forms of the con- tinuation school for $15.00 per year. I, as well as others, got $15.00 yearly salary for nine years, three terms, and other sec.-treasurers I can name got the same amount. No wonder you felt sore when you lost it. Per- haps I would too, but I would not â- show it the way you have, Fred. Thanking you for space in your valu- able paper, Mr. Editor, I am as ever your â€"FEVERSHAM CORRESPONDENT ASCENSION DAY SERVICE HELD AT DUNDALK A very intipiring and Impressive A.seension Day service was held in St. James .-Vnglican (.hurch, Dundalk, on Thursday, May Uath, at 8 p.m. To the majestic words of hymn 183, "O Christ, Thou ha.st ascended," the sur- pliced procession wenUcd its way up '.he main aisle of the church in the loilowing order: Christ church, Mark- dale choir; St. James church, Dun- dalk choir; St. Paul's church, Shel- burne choir; St. Paul's church, Mel- ancthon choir; the Lay-Reader.i and Revs. Pherrill, Oldham and Hurford R. D. The first section of the service of evening prayer was taken by Rev. M. F. Oldham. The proper Psalms 24, 47, 108 for Ascension Day were sung by the choirs. Rev. R. P. D. Hurford read the two lessons, the 2nd chapter of Kings and the first chap- ter of Acts of Apostles. The chants ujed were the Cantate Domino and Devs Misercatur. Rev. C. 0. Pherrill took the' prayers. The Old State Prayers were used after singing the hymn 185, "Holy Ghc.-5t Illuminator" and the National .\nthem. The hymn before the sermon was No. 179, "Hail the day that sees Him Rise." The Rural Dean. Rev. R. P. D. Hurford, delivered an e.xcellent Ascension Day sermon on St. John 16: 7, "It is ex- pedient for you that I go away." He dealt in full with the Ascension Day teaching and its great bearing on all Christian believers. He dealt with our Lord's heavenly work and the glory thereof. The Markdale choir under the dire;:tion of Miss Madge Lucas rendered a fine Ascension Day anthem while the offertory "A'as tak- en. Rev. C. 0. Pherrill said the closing prayers and the choirs march- ed out of the church singing hymn 178, "O Lord Most High Eternal King." Mrs. J. Lyons, organist of St. James church, Dundalk, was in charge of the music. There wero over 40 choristers and the church was well filled for the occasion. Mem- bers were present from the various churches in the southern section of the Deanery. The service was a very noteworthy one and will be long remembered by those present. It was the first of its kind ever attempt- ed in this section of the county and was most successful. It was a splen- did way to mark the 1900th annivers- ary of our Lord's .\scension, as more 'ntirest should be taken in this note- worthy da.v. Seits Siiare In Reserve STAY IN YOL'R CAR Mr. John Gardiner, veteran hard- ware mo'chant here, has sold his share in the Rowbotham Fishing Re- serve, llelancthon township, to Mr R. W. Bi-ett of Shelburne. We under- stand the price was in the neighbor- hood of $2300, and that -Mr. Gardiner will have thf privilege of indulging in his favorite hobby once a week during hio lifetime. Needless to remark, in the past forty-five years in which he has fished at the reserve, Mr. Gardin- er has derived a great deal of pleasure therefrom, and he is recognized as one of the best fly fishermen in this part of Ontario. He is the last of the original members to sell his share in the reserve. Mr. Brett now own.s three shares in the reserve and Mr. Little. Guelph, one.â€" Dundalk Herald. S. S. NO. 5.

If you are driving along the high- way when an electrical storm comes up, and you seek a nice place to stay until the storm passes, just take the advice of experts and stick right in the driver's seat. The Bureau of Standards tells us that automobiles are practically im- mune to lightning despite the fact that rubber tire-s and the car as a whole becomes very wet during a storm. Persons driving within a conduct- ing enclosure are fairly safe against lightning, and the auto body, although enclosed to a considerable extent by glass, approaches this condition. The average motorist is probably safer in his car during an electrical storm than in his home. C-ome to think about it there are mighty few cases on record of autos being struck by lightning. .A.nd this is rather re- markable when you stop to consider the hundreds of thousands of cars out in electrical storms, particularly in our larger cities.

For example, a William pear that has a tinge of color on it, wrapped in paper and placed in a drawer for a few days, will ripen in -such a way as to give a flavor that is highly desirable.
