Interment was made in the Thornbury cemetery, where Rev. (Tiarlton of Thornbury, had charge ol the service. The late Mrs. Howard was ill only jne week witli heart trouble, and hei death came us a great shock to her family and friends. She was form- erly Alice Mary .Woods, a daughter of the late David and Mary Ann Woods, liioneers of Artemesia township. She was born 72 years ago on the farm now owned by Mr. Thos. Henry, 2'/4 miles south of Flesherton. Forty-five years ago she was united in marriage to the late Johnston Howard, who predeceased her by 12 years. They took up farming at Duncan, where ."he lived until four years ago, when :l.e came to Flesherton to make her home with her daugter. In religion Mrs. Howard was a Methodist, later United Church, and was of a kindly di.^position, a good neighbor and high- ly respected throughout the district. She was a .school teacher for a num- ber of years before her marriage. Surviving are one son, Charles, of Duncan, and one daughter, Mrs. Robt Thompson. One daughter, Margaret, passed away about 23 years ago. She i.s also survived by three sistei-s and one brother: Mrs. John Sled of Stay- ner, Mrs. D. B. Brown of Orangeville, .Mrs. W. G. Magee of Eugenia and J. L. Wood of Toronto. The pallbearers were: Messrs. Geo. Clark. Thos. Sled, Percy Magee, Court Smith, Charles Fawcett and A. C. Wellar. A woman's idea of good medicine is any kind that doesn't taste good. A man in Kansas has a voice that can be heard 8 miles. If he were living in a state by the sea his tal- ents wouldn't be wasted merely on >.tg calling. He could serve as a fog horn. A hen owned by Fred Broster of Melancthon laid an egg which meas- ured 7 by 8 inches and was doubie- yolked. NOTICE A. 0. â€"HAVE YOU RENEWED? L. BROKENSHIRE. R. Eyesight Specialst Associated with J.

Mrs. Martin Phillips Died On Sunday There pa.ssed away in Flesherton on Sunday last, Sept. 2nd, a life-long res- ident of this locality, Martha Clark, v.-idow of the late Martin Phillips, at the age of 77 years. .While the health of deceased had not been good for a few years, she was confined to her bed for only two weeks, and when the end came, she was surrounded by all her children and was consciou.s to the last. Her pastor, Rev. W. J. Scott, was with her in the afternoon, and after reading a portion of Scripture and prayer, she remarked "that's lovely." Later in the day she gave her daughters some directions concerning her belongings, for she knew the end of her suffer- ir.gs was near, and she was to be ushered into the presence of her Saviour. Deceased was the daughter of Mary Ann McLaug'hlin and Robert Clark and leaves two brothers and one si.s- ter: Robert Clark of Flesherton, Wil- liam Clark of Wilder, Idaho, and Mrs. T. A. Gamey of Toronto. She is survived by the following children: Robert and Frank of Toronto, Oscar of Flesherton, Mrs. W. Tracy (Jessie) of Toronto, Mrs. D. Bunce (ECfie) of Detroit, Mrs. W. Gibson (Vera) of Ceylon. One son, Harold, died of wounds in France in 1918. The funeral took place this Wed- ne.sday afternoon, Sept. 5th, servic: being held in St. John's United Church conducted by her pastor. Rev. VV. J. Scott, who took as his text 2nd Cor, 4:16 "Though our outward man perish yet the inward man is renewed day by day." The sympathy of the community goes out to the bereaved family and relatives in the passing of thi mother of Israel. Mrs. Phillips, for many years, lived en the Collingwood gravel road at the town line of Os prey and Artemesia and both there and in Flesherton proved to be a fine neighbor. She was of a jolly dispos- ition and friendly nature and most highly respected by the whole com- munity. The pallbearers were four grand- sons, Bob, Albert and Willis Phillips and Osborne Tracey and four nephews Roy, Eldridge, and Joe Phillips and Dick Clark. The flowers were beau- tiful and represented the sympathy of sorrowing friends. They are putting a fence around tht new home of the Dionne babies. But who on earth would be foolish enough to steal quintuplets? THE STORE WITH SERVICE F. T. HILL&CO.,Ltd. w..

Gary Ool^f Debt The municipality of East Garafraxa is in the happy position of laeing en- tirely out of debt. The township paid off the last of its debenture debt last year and also cut its road expend- iture in two, thereby placing itself in a position to reduce the township rate from 7 to 4 mills. This is an example of sane and careful financing that many of our governing bodies] could emulate to good advantage. In this era cf: reckless spending and mounting debts it is refreshing to dis- cover that there are some pu'bli? bodies that arc making an earnest effort to live within their means. After all is said, the debt problem is undoubtedly just about the most serious economic problem that is con- fronting the peoples of this half of the American continent at the present moment. â€" Orangeville Banner. Weaning The Lambs Lambs should be wean«d at around five months of age. The practice of letting the lambs wean themselves ia to t>e discouraged since it prevents the mother getting a well deserved rest before the mating season, which is necessary for her health and vital- ity. Young weaned lambs should have the run of some good fresh pasture. A good after-math or a piece of rapt that has been sown in the spring will be geatly enjoyed by them. Such a pasture is necessary to avoid a check in their growth as a result of the loss of their mother's milk; it will also help to prevent parasitic infestation so detrimental to growing lambs.

THE PROPER CARE OF YOUR AUTOMOBILE Two Methods of Polishing % IT has been told how the color and lustre of your automobile can be restored by the uae of a properly formulated polish. There are two accepted methods of polishing, the, one by using a combination cleaner and 'polish of the liquid type, and the other by using a cleaner and wax. While the use of the liquid polish is less work, and will restore the lustre to your car in one opera- tion, it doe"sn't last long and v/on't prevent further w&thering. The second method involves two operations, and while harder work, will preserve the finish for months^ The traffic film must first be clean- ed off with a mild' abrasive polish or cleaner. ' When the finish is thoroughly dry and clean, the polishing wax is applied with a ball of soft cloth which has been damp- ened and wrung "dry." The wax should be put on sparingly, rub- bing it into small sections (not more than two or three square feet) at a time. Then the wax ia rubbed up to a bright lustre with a clean dry cloth. Wax, like window glass, has the ability to filter out the ultm-violet rays of the sun. When yon wax your car, you apply a thin trans- parent film over the entire surface which, in addition to improving its appearance, protects the finish from weathering. It is easier, also, to keep the waxed surface clean, as dust and dirt can be wiped off much easier. If given this attention a car will retain its good looks for years, and its finish will last a remarkably long time. Next: "Care of Closed Car Topsf Small Advts. t •? ?
