S'he had been in poor, health for many years, suffering with a weak heart and complications, 'but she contracted pneumonia on Sun­ day, previous to her death which proved too great a strain, living only two days afterwards.

She was married to her bereaved hus­ band forty-eight years ago last April and since resided on the farm where she died. She is survived by, two brothers Mr. Wm. Jones, of Hensail and Mr. Alden Jones, of ’London; her husband 'and two children, Mrs, Nelson Coultis and Lloyd; four children predeceased her, Dora, who died in infancy; Earl who gave his life in the Great War, George and Editih. Mrs, Johns although unable to go away ’but very seldom took a great interest in all the affairs ot the community and with a generous hand assisted in any good w'ork, she was a member of the W.M.iS. and assisted in many ways, also a mem­ ber of Elimville church for many years. The service on Friday was conducted by Rev. Mr. penrose w’ho paid tribute to her Christian char­ acter. . A mixed quartette sang “Some Day the Silver Chord Will Break.” The pall bearers were Messrs. Herb and Norman Jones, oi Kippen; Wes., Ed., and Sam Johns and Mr. Harvey Perkins. The floral tributes were very beautiful. Inter­ ment was made in the family plot in Elimville cemetery. The large num­ ber who attended the funeral ex­ pressed their sympathy for the ber­ eaved by their attendance. Among them were relatives from London and Kippen.

SANDERS, Reeve TRIBUTE TO GREAT HOCKEY PLAYER The hockey world joined in pay­ ing tribute to one of the outstanding hockey players of all time when the All-Stars of the N.H.L. played a combined team of the Montreal Can- adiens and the Montreal Maroons in the Forum at Montreal Tuesday ev­ ening of last week in a Howie Mor­ enz benefit game. The All-Stars were the winners by the score of 6 to 5. Close to 9,000 fans turned out to honor the memory of one who has been called one of the sports immortals. One of the out­ standing, players in the benefit game was Babe Siebert, a Zurich old boy, and one time member of t'he Exeter-Zurich hockey team. It was in 1921 that Exeter-Zurich after winning group honors met the Strat­ ford team. Exeter won the first game and in the game at Stratford Howie Morenz was picked from the Juiniors to play witlh the intermed­ iate 'in helping to check the Exeter- Zurich players. From that time on the names of Morenz, Siebert and Kelterbourne were on the lips 'ot all hockey fans. Believing that It might be of interest to our readers we are reprinting the account ot those two games oil another page.

R. E. c. CONVENTION The annual convention of the Stephen, Exeter and Usborjie bramch Of the O.R.E.C. met in the Dash­ wood Evangelical church on Friday, November 5th, with a goodly num­ ber of delegates present. The after­ noon session was opened witih period of worship led by, Bev. H. E. Roppel, pastor of t'he convention church. After a few warm words of welcome he led them to think with him of the application of the parable of the Good Shep’herd to the task of Sun­ day School workers. Just as sheep need the care of the shepherd so also do the people of the world need car& and guidance and this commis­ sion has been given- to his loyal ’ol- lowers and just as* the Good Shep­ herd sought his wondering sheep, so the straying ones of t’he human race must be rescued from’ the byways of life. Following the worship the presi­ dent of the association, "Mr. Horace Delbridge took Charge of the pro­ ceedings. Following the same thought as the wors'hip service had brought out he’ stressed the necessity for steadfastness and courage in the task we face today. The minutes of last year’s con­ vention and the report of the sec­ retary-treasurer for the preceding jyear were read and adopted. It was noted that sc'hools yvere rating well according to chart and that there was a definite interest in he work of the association. Rev. D. J. Gladman, pastor of the United church, Crediton, presented the address “Christ in the Life of the Community.” In a very vivid way he pointed out the characteris­ tics of the wonderful Nazarene who seeming to live such a sinjple life, has yet turned the world’ upside down. The speaker went on to •point out the many changes in our own community, life that the appli­ cations to Jesus' teachings would make. Following the address Mrs. Mervyn Tieman sang a delightful solo. ■Further business was transacted in the Roll call to which thirteen oi the fifteen schools responded with a stand of delegates. Committees for nominating and resolutions were also named. A new departure from our usual program was made evident in the following .half (hour. The group di­ vided itself into five discussion classes, children’s work in a group led by Mrs. H. E. Roppel, of Dash­ wood “Teen Age” led by Rev. J. B. Moore; “Y. P.’s and Leadership Training” by Rev. J. W. Siebert, ot Tavistock; “Missionary and Tem­ perance” by, Rev. A. E. Pletch, of Crediton and “Adult and Home” by Rev. R. N. Stewart, of Centralia. After a half hour of separate class discussion the group met in a general open forum and under the guidance of t'he guest speaker Rev. J. W. Siebert, of Tavistock, the find­ ings of the various groups were brought in and discussed. The afternoon session was closed with prayer by Rev. A, E. Elliott. A snappy song service of choruses and hymns led 'by Harry Hoffman and the Dashwood choir* effectively opened the evening service. The quarter hour of worship, was led by Rev. S. R. Johnston, of Lu- ican, who c'hose as his theme “The Guides of Love” naming them as being Jesus and His teaching, the examples of the lives of those about us and the guiding of the Holy Spirit. /There followed t'he reports of the committees. The report of the nom­ inating committee given at the close of the report was brought in by Rev. J. B. Moore. Acting under the ad­ vice of the executive and the approv. al of t'he convention several of the departments have been eliminated from our executive. Their place was taken by key workers from each school chosen by the individual schools. Resolutions of thanks to the Church, the executive and the secre­ tary were read one of acceptance of the offer of the Lucan S. S. to- hold our 193 8 convention there and one against the flagrant advertisement of tobacco by, bill-board and radio. A resolution of thanks for the ex­ cellent music provided by the Dash­ wood 'Choir throughout the day was also included. Rev. D. C. Hill, of Exeter, conducted a very impressive Installation of Officers’ service. The guest speaker choosing as his Subject the rather puzzling one of “Acrophia” was again introduced to the convention. He began his ad­ dress with a vivid story of a little sailor boy afraid to climb to the topmost masts and his final con­ quering of this phobia, the fear of high places. He very vividly drew the comparison to the persons in the Churches of today who are afraid to climb to high places, morally and spiritually; who are afraid to go be­ yond the average. His whole ad­ dress Was a clarion call to young and old to be willing to climb to. the very mountain tops of achievement in the building of Christian charac­ ter. As a perfect climax to this ad­ dress Harry Hoffman rendered the solo “Forward With Christ” which seemed to be the very embodiment of the speaker's appeal. (The closing item on the program was one, eagerly looked forward to, and much enjoyed; the presentation of about thirty-five slides developed by Rev. j. B. Moore' from his teeent trip through the Holy Land, 'the pictures are of exceptional beauty and interest and made a real im­ pression on the large crowd present. With the spell of these pictures still apparent this excellent convention was closed with the benediction pro­ nounced by Rev. J. W» Penrose. The officers for the ensuing year' are: president., Horace Delbridge; Vice-President, Edmund Hendrick; Secretary-Treasurer Ruby Finkbein­ er; Departmental Leaders, Temper­ ance, G. S. Howard; Missionary C. Skinner; Leadership Training, Rev. D. J. Gindman. ST. MARYS UNDERTAKER DIES Luther A.
