‘It All Depends”
One of the most arguable subjects
that comes into conversations these
days is the forthcoining Royal tour
of Canada, To begin with practical
ly every city, town, village and ham
let in the Dominion feels that more
than the customary amount of bur-
eurcratic malevolence has been ap
plied to disregarding the very evi
dent claims of the community con
cerned upon the time of Their Ma
jesties,
Mudville, for instance, given a
"whistle stop" of four minutes dur
ation, feels slighted, That is bad
enough, But to crown it Mudville
finds that Punfptown, with a popu
lation of only 2,137 tp Mudville’s
2,140, is to have a stop of four and
and half minutes.
When you 'boil it down to what will
happen it really doesn't matter to
the citizens — all they will get out
of it is a chance to see the Royal
couple oh the verandah of their ob
servation car accepting flowers from
the very nervous daughter of the
very nervous mayor and the
nervous mayor presenting his
nervous colleagues.
Many of the arguments I
and they seem to flow more freely
amongst newspapermen than among
the citizens at large, concern them
selves more with the entertainment
of the King and Queen. Are they
going to see Canada? iDon’t they get
enough "stuffed-shirtism" at home?
Surely they expect Canada to have
the individuality of a nation that re
members the pioneer dirt under
grandfather’s fingernails? What will
the (program show them of farming,
lumbering, paper-making, hydro
electric development, manufacturing
rail-roading and the other things
that are Canada?
•It would be to presume upon the
editor’s page were I to set forth my
own opinions on the subject because
my opinions, as should be the case
with those of jls who dabble in print
er’s ink, are those that I gather from
the people I meet. I am not
even going to reproduce the answers
to the questions set forth in the pre
ceding paragraph — a column’s pur
pose should be to stimulate the im
agination of its readers. But some
how I don’t think that is the only
reason for Walter Winchell's style.
As a matter of fact the random
observations of the preceding para
graphs grew out of the discovery of
a complete collection of clippings df
an English newspaper on the sub
ject of the visit in 1901, of the Duke
and Duchess of Cornwall and York.
They .were in 'Canada, as a matter of
fact, not very much longer than will
be their second daughter-in-law. But
they managed to have a very good
time. And, to judge by the clippings
they saw quite a lot of Canada. Even
though, in the language of the spec
ial correspondent of the London
‘‘Times’’ who accompanied the royal
party, it was a “scamper across a
continent."
At Ottawa two very interesting
events on the program are well
worth recalling. Both were calcu
lated to show the royal couple some
thing of the life of Canadians of
that time and each was an event that
could not easily have been duplicat
ed in England. Although it was
not the season for lumbering, rafts
‘were specially made and the whole
party shot the'.chutes at the Chau-
diere Falls. After the trip' on the
lumber rafts they were transferred
to canoes and paddled by “red-shirt
ed voyegeurs of the Hudson Bay Co.
to a lumber camp near iRockcliffe
Park where demonstrations of fall
ing, logging and war canoe races
were given.
To reproduce the real atmosphere
of the woods a log shanty had been
specially built for the occasion and
in this hut the future King and
Queen of England ate a hearty lunch
of pork and beans washed down by
strong black tea •—- and you can al
most imagine the shudder as the
English journalist contemplated " it
“without milk." According to the
correspondent of the "Express"
“Their Royal Highnesses enjoyed the
meal very much, eating heartily from
plates in their laps.’’
By way of contrast a faded photo
graph of a picnic attended by the
Duchess during the visit in the West
shows a total of seven waiters wear
ing “boilrid shirts" to look after the
wants of a dozen guests.
Really Canadian was a lacrosse
match played at Ottawa between a
team from Cornwall and one repre
senting the capital. The iDuke faced
off the ball and expressed the opin- '
ion that lacrosse was the finest sport
he had witnessed.
Unless there are unmistable
howls from editors to. whom this
column is sent there will be more
akout the 1901 visit in a future col
umn. In the meantime I am going
to have a cup of tea - not too strong
iand with milk - and -go to bed,

USES BOTH HANDS
TO WRITE
Letter From a Man of 90
He asks us to excuse his writing.
We do more than that — we con
gratulate him on being able to write
at all at his age, especially as he has
been suffering from rheumatism.
This is what he says in his letter:—
“Three years ago I was in bed for
six weeks with inflammatory rheu
matism. Since that time I have been
taking Kruschen Salts, and have not
had another attack. But the com
plaint left me with inflamed feet,
and it hurt me to walk. My hands
were also somewhat stiff. I took
Kruschen every morning before
breakfast, and shall continue to do
so, because I am sure they have kept
me in good shape for three years.
Excuso this writing, as I am ninety
years old, and use both hands to
write.’’—J.R.G.
The pain and stiffness of rheu
matism are often caused by uric acid
in the muscles and joints. Kruschen
helps to dissolve and remove excess
uric acid in a gentle way through
the natural channels. Renewed
health and vigour is the result.
BWH38WI
of
all
all,
On .March 14th, the
Exeter were invited by Mr. Stanlake
and son to visit their recently in
stalled pastuerizing plant. I accept
ed the invitation and now I shall try
to describe to you what I saw at the
dairy.
Raw milk contains or may con
tain many bacteria, which have ac-
cummulated in it during milking
hours and in handling it. These
bacteria germs multiply' very rapid
ly, especially, when the milk is
warm. Bacteria from milk ued to
cause nearly twenty per cent of all
diseases. These diseases were mainly
“Tuberculosis" ‘Sceptic Sore Throat’
‘Undulent Fever’ even common colds
Approximately ninety-eight per cent
of the doctors of Ontario support the
advisability of using pasteurized
milk, Under recent conditions the
government has seen “the need
forcing dairymen to pasteurize
milk they sell.
In the building of the dairy
possible means available have been
used to insure sanitary handling of
milk and to supply Exeter patrons
with the purest milk obtainable in
the vicinity. Now let us consider
the equipment which has 'been in
stalled. One of the most important
and fundamental needs is steam. It
is produced in a huge boiler which
carries nearly eighty pounds of
steam. Steam is used for heating
the building sterilizing the bottles,
pails and transmitting pipes and for
the heating element in the pasteur
izing unit.
We will now consider the process
ing of the milk. Tile milk is filtered
into sterilized cans, before being
taken to the dairy for pasteurizing.
The raw milk is cooled as quickly as
possible to free it from all undesir
able odour which it may have. This
is done by running it in a thin film
over successive pipes arranged some
what like a hot-water heater. Thro’
these pipes cold water is circulating.
• The milk is then removed to the
pasteurizing unit. This may hold
about fifty gallons of milk. The in
side is lined with stainless steel one-
half nich thick. This prevents the
milk from having a metallic taste,
because in previous models the in
side was of nickel-plated copper. The
nickle became scratchd off and the
milk had a coppery taste. On the
unit are two scientific thermometers
an indicating thermometer and a re
cording thermometer, which records
graphically the daily temperature.
These records are kept for the gov
ernment inspector. The milk is heat
ed to a temperature between 143 de
grees and 145 degrees F. which takes
twenty-five minutes. It is held at
this temperature for half an hour.
At the outlet of the pasteurizing unit
is a special ^alve, which lets any un
pasteurized milk which may leak
out, drip to the floor.
The pasteurized milk is now con
veyed to the cooler which is much
larger than the first one described,
but which works on the same prin
ciple. It is enclosed by a steel cas
ing. The upper part of the
contain cold water, while the 1
half contains ammonia gas.
possible to' freeze the milk on
pipes. The milk after leaving
pasteurizing unit -comes in contact
with air only for a fraction of a sec
ond.
The pasteurized milk is
into a
cooler.
Stand upon which four bottles can be
placed. With a turn of a- handle the
stand rises and two bottles are au
tomatically filled. While the other
two bottles are being filled the first
two are capped by a hand machine.
The caps c^me in sanitary tubes and
it would not be wise to cap the
bottles 'by hand.
The bottles are now removed to
he refrigerator room,
milk is needed for sale,
is kept at a temperature of a few de
grees above freezing. If however the
temperature rises, the cooling ma
chine starts automatically and goes
until the temperature reaches stan
dard.
The way in Which cleanliness is
observed here is particularly strik
ing. The bottles are washed with
the utmost care, No soap is used
for washing, -but a sweet substance
which would not harm the flavour
of the milk. An electrically operat
ed brush washes the 'bottles inside
and out. The rinsing water con
tains a chlorinate solution. Once a
day the floors are hosed off and the
wacr drained away.
I earnestly believe that the citizens
of Exeter edri rest asslired that they
will receive the purest milk obtain

HUSBAND RECEIVES HALF OF
ESTATE
Mrs. Fannie Jane Hodgins, of Lu
can, was found to have died intest
ate by County Judge Joseph Wear
ing who gave judgment in a dispute
over her estate in the Middlesex Co.
Surrogate Court in London.
As a result of the finding, Edward
Hodgins, husband of the deceased
woman, will receive half her estate
of $4,983 and three brothers and a
sister will receive the other half.
The case was an interesting one.
A will dated December 9, 1929, was
filed for probate. Then it was claim
ed that a latei’ will, which could not
be found, had been made by the de
ceased.
To learn the facts regarding this
second will the court held a special
sitting at the Granton home of Jos
eph Grant, who drew the will. Mr.
Grant was unable to attend the court
and so Judge Wearing, legal counsel
and a court stenographer went to
his home.
In his judgment, Judge Wearing
found that the deceased had made a
good and valid will, containing a
revocation clause subsequent to the
will dated December 9, 1929, and
found also that this subsequent will
was later voluntarily destroyed by
the deceased while in her rational
mind and with the intention of re
voking the will.
This left her intestate. Judge
Wearing allowed costs of $350 to
both plaintiff and defendant in the
action over the estate, the costs to
be paid from the estate.
E. M. Winder and Eldon Mitchell,
of London, acted for Mr, Hodgins,
and Riddell ,& Marshall, Stratford,
for the three brothers and sister of
the deceased.
