ORANGE PEKOE BLEND "Frerfi from the Gardens" BOY IS DROWNED AT AILSA CRAIG Lloyd McDonald, Age Seven, Falls Into River. iSeven-year-old. Lloyd McDonald, eon of Mr. and Mrs, Norman Mc­ Donald, of Ailsa Craig, was drowned .about 3 o’clock Saturday afternoon, when he tumbled from the girders «of the bridge of No. 7 highway, into the waters of the Aux Sauble .riv-*r, The bridge spans the river at a point immediately west of Ailsa Craig. Lloyd, with his brother, Gordon, ,und a group of other boys, was play­ ing about the bridge, but when he .clambered out on tihe girders-, Gor_ JOp endeavored to coax him away mrn the precarious position. Lloyd stayed out, however, and it is .thought lost his balance, with the result he fell into the water. Boys who were "near the scene ■gave th© alarm, and John Hanson and a Mr. Gardiner made an attempt .sit rescue. They were unsuccessful, but after the body was recovered Dr. Jarrott, worked for some time in an effort to resuscitate the little lad. ‘The attempt was fruitless. The victim was the youngest of three boys, and was an exceptionally bright little chap. He attended tne local school. Surviving are his fa­ ther and mother, Mr. and Mrs. Nor­ man McDonald, and two brothers, Hugih and Gordon.

In 1931 she shipped 10,000,000 -carcasses of this commodity to Great Britain. Where has Canada been all this time? The chairman of the 'New Zealand Company doing the shipping said the shipment in 1882 was- the beginning of New Zea­ land’s prosperity. If Canada had less partisan politics, less theor­ izing about governmental measures, less self-seeking in her busi­ ness dealings and a whole lot more of the open-eyed way of doing things', the depression of this hour would sit very lightly upon the average Canadian.

On the other hand, it is the task of the local merchant to do his- sturdy utmost to learn what the buying public seeks to purchase. For years and years the art of Salesmanship has been neglected. Anyone can. take from a shelf what a customer asks for. It is quite another thing to have at hand, as the result of keen study, what the customer wants to buy. .Healthy localism requires that the customer in making his purchase shall study the results, im­ mediate and remote of his. buying. On the other hand it demands that the merchant shall see to it that none of his customers lose through giving him his trade Neither town nor dealer long thrives by playing the game: “Heads, I win; tails, you lose.” Skin Loveliness Easy to Have.

THINK THIS OVER Britain proposes the following in the aid. of old country agri­ culture: Improvemoht of th© marketing of milk and milk products through a Reorganization Commission. A scheme for reorganization of the bacon industry. If a feasible scheme- is evolved the Government will promote some- form of quantitative regulation of imports. A scheme*, if desired by the growers to reorganize the market­ ing of the home potato crop. Consideration will be given to the regulation of imports of the main crop. Further action may be taken to help the fishing industry in addition to the assisst-ance it will receive through the new import confidence and stimulate effort both in agriculture and fishery,— The future of agriculture (Sir John, Gilmour said in conclus­ ion) must depend upon its adaptability to modern conditions-, and he expressed his belief that the Government's policy would restore confidence and stimulate effort both in agriculttira and fishery.— London Times.

Grief and horror filled the breast of every healtliy-minded man and woman in America on hearing of the kidnapping of the Lindbergh baby. Grief mere was because of the anguish that pierc­ ed through the- hearts of the father and mother as their first-born was snatched from his cradle, not by disease that is the lot of all, but by th© claw of crime and unmitigated sordidness. Horror there was because the'American republic has. awaken­ ed to thq terrible knowledge that the underworld of the contirtent has shown itself capable of invading any home; of desecrating any cradle and of laying low any virtue or any innocence, and this in a country that has withins its vaults th© major portion of the world’s gold and that boasts that its army and navy arc the great­ est the earth lias ever seen. The United States lias photographed herself before the ages, She can't protect her cradles from, the tiger tooth of organized gangsterdom. Till the U. S; clears her records of this foul thing1 done within her borders each one- of her citizens must hang his head in shame as he- openly acknowledges that the criminal and not’the judge, tho hannt of the gangster and not congress bears rule in that republic. Till the perpetrators of this dastardly thing have been brought to judgment and punish­ ed as befits their crime, the lustre has faded from every star hi the American banner; the glory of the Union hast departed. The gang­ sters of the Union have driven a sivord through every mother’s heart. What 1ms the manhood of the United States to say about it? Nay, what will they do about it? DIED IN TORONTO A former resident of Staffa, Mrs. Duncan Brown, passed away nt her home in Toronto recently, Mrs. Brown had been in her usual health up to a few days before her death and had attended the Perth Old Boys' and Girls’ Celebration a few weeks before being the oldest one present, in her 84th year.

The following reference to an Exe- ter Old Boy was taken from the Sarnia Canadian Observer of Tues­ day, March 1st. This was a red letter das'- in the life of Charles Eacrett, nonagenar­ ian and retired harness maker of this city, who observed his ninety- first birthday, quietly, at his resi­ dence, 185 North Brock Street. In spite of his advanced age Mr. Eacrett is hale and hearty and his physical fitness enables him to be active and to enjoy life, lie is a popular figure on the city streets and has always maintained an in­ terest in current events. With the passing of another' year there has been very little change in Mr. Eacrett’s health. He is in pos­ session of all his mental and physical faculties, with the exception of his hearing which has been impaired for a number of years. The years have d.ealt kindly with him and, today he is spending his declining years in ease and happiness after a life spent in hard work and righteous living. Takes Pride in Activity Mr. Eacrett is without doubt, om> of the most active aged men of thcr community and in this fact, foe takes considerable pride. Practically afc any time during the year this veter­ an Sarnian can be seen on th© city streets although the winter weather usually debars him from his out-of- door activities, The mild weather of this winter has enabled him. to bet about more than usual. One of Mr. Eacrett’s favorite pas­ times is reading. Th© Bible is his- book and he cherishes the fact that he has read it through several times. The news of the world is brought to him through the newspapers and ho has a wide knowledge of the affairs of men and nations. Born in Queen’s County, Ireland, 30 miles from Dublin, the capital, Mr. Eacrett, with his parents and seven brothers and one sister ©mi­ grated to Canada when he was thir­ teen year of age. The family took up land in Huron County near the village of Exeter, where 'Charles grew up. Recalls Lincoln When he became 19 years of age he left the homestead and went to Philadelphia to learn the harness­ making. >Mr. Eacrett vividly recalls the ceremonies which attended- the inauguration of Abraham Lincoln, as president of the United States in I8­ 60. He also recollects the assassina­ tion of president Lincoln by Wiles Booth, which took place four years later in a theatre. Later Mr. Eae- rett returned to Exeter, where he continued in the harness business for the next 35 years. From Exeter Mr. Eacrett moved to Sarnia where he continued his trade. He built the store on Loch- ner street now occupied by Fraser’s Grocery and there operated a har­ ness shop until his retirement six­ teen years ago. Today Mr. Eacrett was receiving the congratulations and felicities of his relatives and friends and best wishes for continued good health and prosperity.
