Editor, POSITION OF REGIMENT KIMBERLEY Elsewhere in this issue appears an article and explanation of the posi- tion of the Grey & Simcoe Foresters Heg^iment, whose regimeatal area is ti)e Counties of Grey and Simcoe. It sets forth why the Regiment has not been mobilized. The intention of the Regiment to recruit to war strength is commend- able, not only does it give the chap who is willing to serve an opportunity to manifest that desire, but it gives him a definite status as ai), enlisted man, ready to serve when called. It also is the definite contribution of the Counties of Grey and Simcoe to the nation's effort, as a unit of their own, for under the , organization of the Militia, the Regiment will take the field as a unit, with the result that the personel of the Regiment will profit by the efforts of the combined Counties. There passed away front among us, one of our oldest and most highly respected resident of the valley, on Friday evening, in the person of Mrs. Wm. Fawcett, who was in her 86th year. She was born in Ohio, coming with her parents, the la^e Mr. and Mr. John Stafford, when quite young. Over 60 "years ago she was married to Mr. W. E. Fawcett. She was one of hte first members of otir now United Church and was always active in the Ladies' Aid until the past few years, and even in her advatKed years will be much missed. She leaves to mourn her loss three sons, Ezra, who served in the Great War, Wellington on the old home farm, where Mrs. Fawcett passed away, and Ashley of Powassan. Four grandsons and two granddaughters also survive. She also leaves three sisters and two brothers, Mrs. Albert Ellis and Miss Ma'y of Kimberley, Mrs. Edward Baker of Flesherton, Mr. Irwin (Stafford of Sault Ste. Marie and Mr. Rutledge Stafford of Kimberley. We extend our sympathies to the bereaved families. Interment took place in Markdale cemetery. WHO WILL BE THE NEXT VICTIM? VANDELEUR lAat year the ?*ire Demon numbered among his victims in Canada 263 men, women and children. In 1937, 105- children lost their lives by fire, while in 1938, 118 children's lives were claimed. This is a staggering admiss- ion and the responsibility for such tragedies can in many cases be laid to the negligence of parents who far too often ieave their helpless littlt ones alone in the house while they ywt. neighbours or go to a show. These holocausts frequently occur in rural districts where neighbors are long distances away and the parents are unahle to reach their burning home in time to save their children from a horrible death. Every parent slould realize that it is his duty to teach his children the principles of fire prevention. They should not be allowed to play with fire, matches should be kept out of their reach and the playing with celluloid toys should be discouraged. By a strict adherence to the use of common sense, parents can thus save -themselvgs the bitter anguish and life- Uag regret which must be ever pr*- sent whea a child perishes by their neglect. Mrs. Lundy Johnston and Mrs. K. Davison are spending a few days with friends in Owen Sound. Mr. and Mrs. Howard Graham and Ruth spent a day recently with friends at Midhurst and Barrie.

We cannot look for many bargains in life. A good education is worth having, but we do not find it on the bargain counter. It must be paid for, in full with hard study, close attention, the sacrifice of many an hour's fun that might lower the classroom record next day.
