Farm
The SS No. 4 Goderich Town-
ship Farm Forum met this week
at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Ir-
vine Tebbutt, with ten members
present.
The topic for discussion was
"Who Writes the Contract?". This
being the second in a series on
vertical integration, The first qu-
estion: "Have you any experience
with contract production in your
area?" was explained by answer-
ing—yes. a limited experience,
more or less a -side line for ex-
perimental purposes in hogs, malt-
ing barley, flax, and cucumbers,
Forum
and the members considered they
were affected to quite a limited
degree, as not much. contract pro-
duction was carried on in our
area.
The man under contract has
been able to develop a larger bus-
iness, that he could not handle
otherwise. Perishable products
would be too risky to produce
without a contract.
There was a short recreation
period for games, and lunch was
served, The meeting next week
will be Tuesday night at the home
of Mr. and Mrs. Jack Merrill,

Mrs. George Morley
(By our Bayfield Correspondent)
Friends here were shocked to
learn that Mrs. George Morley
had been killed under the wheels
of a transport on Monday, Jan-
uary 12, 1959, near her home on
10th Street in Chatham. She had
dashed into the road, one of the
alternative routes through the city,
for No. 2 Highway traffic, after
her pet dog.
Formerly Gladys Margaret Gale,
aged 55, she was the youngest
daughter of the late Rev. and
Mrs, R. M. Gale.
She came with her parents to
St, Andrew's United Church Par-
sonage in 1927 and resided here
until her marriage to the Rev.
George Morley in August 1939.
She went as a bride to the parish
of St. Paul's United Church, Ear-
wick, where she had been known
as a daughter of the manse, before
coming to Bayfield. From this
charge they went to Port Dover,
from which church her husband
retired in 1957, owing to ill-health.
They located in Belmont where he
died in. October 1957.
Mrs. Morley returned to Chat-
ham in the spring of 1958 as org-
anist of Victoria Avenue United
Church and established her home
there.
A talented musician, Mrs. Mor-
ley attended Alma College where
she attained her A.T.C.M. While
in Bayfield she taught music, was
active in choir, Sunday School
and young people's work.• Her
artistic genius was portrayed in her
various hobbies of finger painting,
creating figurines and an interest
in shell work. She was of a very
happy disposition, loving all things
beautiful, and will be missed by a
large circle of friends, as well as
in church and community activit-
ies. People in Port Dover enjoyed
her contributions to that town's
newspaper.
Surviving are four brothers, the
Rev. James Gale, Ridgeway; John,
Alma; Robert, Aurora; Ewart,
Norwood; one sister, Mrs. A. A.
McIntyre, Waterloo, and a step-
daughter, Mrs. S. Richardson,
Belmont.

Fruit Growers
Stewart Middleton and Clayton

convention of the Ontario Fruit
and Vegetable Growers at the
King Edward Hotel, Toronto, on
Tuesday and Wednesday of this
week,
This year this association is cel-
ebrating its 100th anniversary.
Thus this society is older than
the Confederation that is the Can-
ada of today, It is a far cry to
that day of January 19, 1859,
when 18 men sat in the Mechan-
ics Hall, Hamilton and brought
into being the Fruit Growers As-
sociation • of Upper Canada—the
fore-runner of today's association
with its 12,000 members.
Miss Elsie Thompson.
(By our Hayfield Correspondent)
A familiar figure in Bayfield
for the past 18 years, Miss Elsie
Thompson died on Tuesday af-
ternoon, January 13, 1959, in Clin-
ton Public Hospital where she had
been a patient for a month. A
sudden heart seizure, just as she
was, preparing to leave the hospi-
tal for the nursing home in Hen•
salt, brought death within a few
minutes.
Known to be in her nineties,
Miss Thompson was born in
Rhylie, Aebrdeenshire, Scotland.
She came to this country with her
father, Alexander, uncle John and
grandmother Thompson in 1874, Her
father and uncle took up land on
the Town Line in Stanley Town-
ship, They were stonemasons and
a good many of the fine stone
residences in the district were
built by thetn,
Miss Thompson was raised by
her grandmother who lived with
her son, John. Following her un-
cle's death, she went to Sault Ste,
Marie, Ont., where she found em-
ployment for a number of years.
Being fond of travel and ad-
venture, she went farther west,
living in different towns and cities
for short periods, finally spending
several years on a farm in Alberta.
She came to Bayfield in 1940, and
soon afterwards purchased the
former Spencer home on Main
Street, East, from the late Robert
Penhale, where she has resided
ever since. She was a member of
Knox Church WMS.
A great reader, she enjoyed good
iterature and possessed a very
retentive memory. She was a wo-
man who had very strong opinions
and was not afraid to express
them. Within recent years, she
had been toying with the idea of
taking a trip to her birthplace
which she had left as a child.
Each year she had a garden in
which she raised vegetables and
strawberries. Although so advanc-
ed in years, she was of a sturdy
and independent nature and car-ried on alone until a month ago
when a heart condition necessitat-
ed removal from her home to the
Clinton Public Hospital.
She is survived by three half-
sisters, Miss Emily Thompson,
Mrs. John (Gertrude) MacDoug-
all, Toronto, and Mrs. Fraser
(Grace) Ferguson, Ottawa.
A life-long and staunch Presby-
terian, Miss Thompson's funeral
will be held from Knox Presby-
terian Church, Hayfield, at two
o'clock on Thursday, January 15.
The service will be in charge of
the Rev. D. J. Lane and inter-
ment in Bayfield Cemetery,
