Mrs. Corbett Sr. spent the winter with members of her family but returned as soon as the weather was warmer to her ovm home in the â-  iilage. There are those in the village and community who are lonely because of the loss of a loved mother during the past year. We sympathize with them.

He spoke on how many ;•* farm women were situated. He said! •> it was well known that stock and the ] 'S bam came first, then LE there is any money left it may go for the house.
