ONTARIO On Tuesday afternoon1 of last weak two of the oldest residents of this community both of whom can remember when there -were less than half a dozen homes in Exeter, enjoyed a motor drive all around the village and one of them expressed his pleasure and surprise at the beauty and comfort of the homes and surroundings. The two gentle­ men. were Messrs. Jas. Handford, of town, -who in July will celebrate his 93rd birthday and William Kydd, of Usborne, who is nearing his 90th milestone. Mr. Handford was born on a farm about three miles south of town and Mr. Kydd came to Us­ borne as a lad in his early teens. They have seen the whole commun­ ity transformed from a virgin for­ est to its present prosperous 'con­ dition. Mr. Handford said that he had been a resident of Exeter for the past 21 years but he had never seen as much of it as he did on Tuesday He said that he had been visiting in Toronto for years and had often been told that Exeter was one of the prettiest spots west of Toronto. He remarked that he .knew surrounding the town beaten but he had not the beauty of the town he did on Tuesday. The men enjoyed the trip through the courtesy of Mr. David Rowcliffe Mr. Kydd on being asked the secret Of longevity stated “to eat oatmeal and read the Globe.” the country couldn’t be appreciated as much as two gentle- Dull Pains Around Her Heart Shortness of Breath Mfs.

Britain’s best declare that this conference will deal with “the parting of the ways” and regard it as “fateful”,.

They have no idea that it’s up to them to show people with money what they can do for them, and to show them in such a way that the man with money will part with his cash.

For reasons best known to themselves, the authorities loaded them into an automobile, so , the C. P. dispatch informs us and rushed them out of town under guard of five plainclothes detectives. “^Mounted police refused to divulge the destination of the car bearing the prisoners and declin­ ed to discuss the case.” The C. P. dispatch adds, “That is as it 'ought to be.” But that is not the way of the police in certain other similar cases occurring in other countries. For instance, the limit of publicity was given the case of the kidnapping of the Lind- burg baby with the results that all are ‘aware of. The British navy has the confidence of the world because -it keeeps its business to itself. The Canadian police will gain in power by following their example.******** On the occasion of his first pubic utterance in Great Britain, Mr. Andrew Mellon, U. S. ambassador to the court of St. James made the following remarks. It must be remembered that Mr. Mellon is not only a splendid statesman and diplomat, but about the best business man in the United States. His words are worth careful pondering: “Just now all of us are hoping for signs of improving condi­ tions in the principal countries as evidence that the world will soon be on the mend. Here in Great Britain I have been impressed, even in the few days I have been among you, with the feeling that you have turned your most difficult cornet and the situation is in hand. All the world, and we in America in particular, have watch­ ed With admiration the courageous, and even heroic, manner in which the Government and the people of Great Britain have faced their difficulties and have not hesitated to add to their already heavy burdens in order to meet their responsibilities towards each other and the world.” MT.
