This near -century -old organization has
faced crises before and:; 'has always sue -
'
mounted the - obstacles. and continued to.
function and play an important role in the
life of ,the " community.
Financial difficulties have . been faced in
the' past;' but a matter of personnel,: is, of
• more serious consideration; .` Without en-
thusiastic and sacrificial leadership,. the,
Lucknow Agricultural :'Society,, cannot` hope
to survive and ' flourish;
Those interested in : the future of:: the
Society, whether members . or not, would
serve a ' worthwhile purpose ;by sparing an
hour or two to attend Thursday :' night's'
meeting, and `:lend their moral . support to
those who may be to 'carry on."„
Many . in, this • community will be . pleas
ed to "know that the Lucknow and:: Dis
trict Branch of . the ' Canadian' 'Red Cross
" willcontinue to function... A".' number' of
public spirited citizens of . the community
(many of them women) have volunteered
to ' make the annual 'canvass to .keep. the
'Red ' Cross' strong. There, 'are numerous lo-
cal benefits to be 'derived, as well as the
broader humanitarian, aspects This corn -
triunity has had a . proud record ' of Red
'Cross support in ' the "past and, those who
arewilling. to' see . that this support isnot
allowed to 'fail, are to be commended.'

removes from Ripley one of its leading

to, remain on'his' native; heath and..provide
dental service for the village and.surround=
ing' district.
He was a leader in' : all that -: as . good
in the . confrnunity.. ' His influence • was'
great in the:'cause of religion, education
and fraternal 'organizations.
Not everyone. can 'be •,claimed as a
friend," but it is 'safe 'to 'say that "John''
