Had a Bad Cold Mrs. Thomas Lees, Lansdowne Station, N.S.. writes:—“My little girl had such a bad cold she would cough so hard at night she could hardly get her breath. I tried everything I thought would improve her, but to ho avail, until I saw where Dr. Wood’s Norway Pine Syrup was good for cold ailments. After giving her two bottles she was greatly improved. I am never without ‘Dr. Wood’s* in the house in cases of emer­ gency.” Price, 35c a bottle; large family size, 65c, at all drug and general stores; put up only by The T. Milburn Co., Limited, Toronto, Ont. PORT OF GODERICH The .port of Goderich is doing better than holding its own in the matter of grain receipts despite the loss of export business with the opening of the New Welland Cclnal. A statement published in this issue shows that Goderich elevators for the year ending July 31st, 19(3'3 handled 9,2'5'6,680 bushels of grain from the head of the lakes, as com­ pared wtith 7,251,32i5 bushels for the twelve months ending Juily 31, 19)32, an increase of over two mil­ lion bushels. These figures do not include American .grain of which there was some 3,000-,1000 bushels stored here during 1932. Goderich is exceeded only by Montreal, Port Colborne, Kingston and Midland. These figures are very encourag­ ing and auger well for the future of Goderich and its elevators for which some anxiety was felt when the new Welland Canal was constructed. Ex­ perience has demonstrated However, that even in a lean year, with com­ petition never keener, .the elevators here were able to increase their grain business. To this can be at­ tributed in large measure our splen­ did harbour, its facilities and the energetic and wide awake manage­ ment of the executives in control of the industries located here. WE PUT THE PREACHER TO WORK Rev. James Anthony of the Avon- bank United Church, came into the sanctum the other day. He has done so before. In fact he likes news­ paper offices and is fond of writing. On this particular day the minis­ ter was moved to ask how all things went, and he received the reply that work was piled high at either elbow and little was being accomplished4 Right at the moment we were far behind on the day’s schedule. A sympathetic individual is Mr. Anthony, not merely of the sort who says “Well, that is indeed too bad,” but he supplements his sympathy with a question like this:’ “Is there anything I can do to help?” That is exactly what he asked when he came in here, and he did not have to wait long for the reply. It was just this: “Certainly, sir, you can sit down and write an editorial.” “What about?” he asked and the answer was ‘’Anything under the sun as long as you-know it is true.” Did he say he would think it over and come back later? Not he. He merely inquired if there was a type­ writer not working. So the minister sat down and .produced the finished article. It was in the -paper soon after and told about the manner in which the East has responded to the call of the West by sending supplies to those who sorely needed them. It was a good article, turned in right on the spur of the moment, and we were delighted to have the opportun­ ity of printing it, and equally pleas­ ed to give credit to the man who* wrote it. It is rather pleasant to have a caller now and thdn who is willing to turn in and lend a hand. ’—Stratford Beacon-Herald How Is Your Label? DEATH OF SAMUEL HANDFORD Reference was made In the Times- Advocate of the death of Mr, Samuel Handford, of (Snowflake, Man., who died October 2i0i in his 86th year, The deceased was a brother of Mr. Jas. Handford, of town, aged 94 years. The following was taken from the Crystal City Courier; “Mr. Handford had not enjoyed ro­ bust health for the last two years and gradually became weaker, not­ withstanding the best medical aid and professional nursing, succumb­ ing on the above date with Mrs, Handford and the family near at the last hour. Samuel Handford was one of the first settlers in the Snowflake dis­ trict, reaching the country from London, Ont., via Emerson in the year 1879 and had resided here for 54 years. He came as a young man well equipped for settlement in the new country. He had taken a course in the Forest City Business College, London, Ont., and had a strong, healthy physique. Consequently, he found employment, not in agricul­ ture alone, but also in the grain trade, and as government license in­ spector, immigration officer, muni­ cipal councillor and other interests in community life. He was a Con­ servative in politics. H was well read in Scripture lore and New Test­ ament teaching, and for many years was active in the former Methodist Church and later in the United. Contemporary with the late Mr. Handford as pioneers in the (Show­ flake district were such families as Hicks, Patterson, Neil, Manning Brothers, Wilson, McFarlane, Cob­ bledick, Oke, Cave Brothers, 1C. Handford, J. Robertson, Sims, Dews, Maxwell. Coming soon after were Robertson’s, Shilsoh’s Spencer’s and others. The late Sauel Handford was well known and highly esteemed and a large concourse of people assembled at the funeral out of respet of his memory and sympathy for the mourners. Surviving are his widow and six sons: Edwin, William, Luther, Chas. Cleveland and Kitchener; two- dau­ ghters: Mrs. Wm. Handford and Mrs H. J. Hurst, all of Snowflake, except Edwin in Winnipeg. Thirty grand­ children and four great grand chil­ dren also survive.” STEPHEN COUNCIL The Council of the Township of Stephen convened ait the Town Hall, Crediton, on Monday, November 6, 19/3’3, at 2 o’clock p.m. |A’H mem­ bers were present.
