Marsh, publisher of the Amherstburg Echo, died Thurs­ day of last week in Chatham Gen­ eral hospital, as the result of in­ juries suffered in an auto accident near Blenheim the previous Friday night. Mr. Marsh, assisted by his son John Marsh, published one of the most widely read of the Ontario Weeklies and both father and son have been actively associated with the Canadian Weekly Newspapei' Association. Mr. A. W.

It was at Mrs. Marsh the Ontario Association The annual hot roast fowl din­ ner put on by the Women’s Assoc­ iation Of Brucefield United church was an event of last Thursday ev­ ening and based on previous years record it was conservatively estim­ ated that from fifteen hundred to two thousand people sat down to relays of 300. Tables were set in the church shed which was decor­ ated for the occasion with autumn flowers, foliage, evergreens, flags and streamers. Autumn flowers were also used for table decorations The shed was constructed to ac­ commodate the large membership of the church in horse and carriage days and is ah immense place. It is used now for storage of fuel and unused church belongings. With the walls murescoed in white and the great beams covered with dec­ orations it makes an ideal banquet hall. The dinners were formerly served in the church ‘basement but the annual event has grown to such proportions in attendance that they cannot be accommodated there One year ago the attendance eeeded fourteen hundred and year preparations were made hundreds more. After this dinner a fine program was carried out in the auditorium of the church, including two reels of moving pictures "On Guard for Thee’’ a naval and aviation reel and a southern reel "Picking Cotton.” The musical program included solos by Mr. Attridge, Goderich and Mr. Rennie, of Hensall; piano by Mrs. A. Johnson and Mrs. W. Mc­ Beth and songs by radio entertain­ ers Margaret and Gladys Collins. The pastor af the church Rev. E. Wright was chairman. ex- this for BODKIN STEER We eve sorry to report that Mr. Reg Delbridge had the misfortune to fall while picking apples and sustain­ ed a broken vertebrae in his back and at present is confined to Victoria Hospital, Rondon.

Last Thurs­ day afternoon he took his place be hind a plow to enter the novice class at the annual match of the South Huron plowmen’s Associa­ tion held on the farm of Robert Munn, southwest of Hensall. And a straight furrow he plowed too, taking his round in an atmosphere of seriousness, talking to the horses from time to time and pausing oc­ casionally to straighten up the sod with his foot.

BELL WELL INTERVIEW By Alta Lind Rodges in Free Press PLEASED WITH LONDON the London well-known a cl it post- Lon- seize the Kippen is today a hamlet on No. 4 highway but for some years when the country was first settled Kippen was just a nameless crossroads, and so it might have remained had not the settlers of Tuckersmith and Stanley town­ ships felt the need for a post office in the community. Robert Bell, of Tuckersmith was leader of the movement to secure postoffice at “the corner.” When became known that Lord Elgin, the Governor-General, and the master-general were to visit don, the settlers decided to this opportunity of bringing master of a postoffice before the officials. Robert Bell was appoint­ ed a delegate to London in the hope that he might be able to obtain an interview. We of the present day know little of he difficulties of communication of those early days and we read with pleasure that Mr. Bell experienced no difficulty in obtaining an inter­ view and that his request for a postoffice was granted. Mr. Bell was almost overcome with joy. The settlers had not only dared hope for an interview and Bell had not only obtained that, but also the promise of a post of­ fice in the near future. The official spoke again: "And what would you like to name the post office” he inquired. Bell had not been deputed the honor of naming the new office. He wondered a minute and sug­ gested Sterling, the name of the county in Scotland from which he had come. It was the der. Then he ing might be the settlers from other counties. "Would Mullingar not be a suitable name,” inquired ial. "That's too Irish to Scotchmen,” Bell flashed then wondered at his own audicity in his squelching the official's sug­ gestion. When he stood confused the postmaster-general spoke again. "Perhaps, then, you could sug­ gest another name?” 'The sturdy iScotch settler’s thoughts ran around in circles. To save his life he could think of no name save that of his native vil­ lage in Scotland, but he was afraid that it, too, might be too Scotch. The official was a kindly man who did not look with disdain upon the rough hands or coarse home- spun clothes was brief. "Can you name?” he minding his more important matters his attention. "Kipen,” Bell answered hastily ‘ in his confusion.” “Fine,” said the pastmaster-gen­ eral. And so Kippen it was and still is today. official’s turn to pon- suggesled that iSterl- too Scottish to please the more offic- thesuit back and of his visitor, but time not think of a suitable asked iby way of re­ visitor that othei’ and required A hunter was showing of his col­ lection of trophies to a group of vis­ itors. He was rapturously explain­ ing how he acquired the various exhibits: "See that elephant?” he said. "I shot it in my pyjamas.” "My goodness,” murmured the sur­ prised young lady. "How did it get there?” i Two "on-coms” were doing the, art gallery. They paused before a> masterpiece with the identifying pla-(f card, "By Sargent.” The three-, striper turned to his double chevron- ed buddy and whispered: "Why, it, isn’t the work of a first-class pri-1 Vale!” On the sidelines stood a crowd of seasoned farmers. It was a class for non-plowers and the farmers had been having their laughing­ spell at some of the awkward squad including ourself. But when J. W. Ortwein and some of the other old- timers went down the line behind the real old-fashioned walking plow the laughter had disappeared and in its place there came words of admiration and respect, climaxed by a hearty applause at the con­ clusion of the performances. Mr. Ortwein, who appears to be in the best of health told us after his round that lie hadn’t touched a plow in some sixty years and ad­ mitted quite frankly that he really enjoyed the little trip of a few rods behind a team of horses. Hats off to the folk of South Huron who put on the plowing match each year. Everyone seemed so friendly to everyone else that the spirit of friendliness couldn’t help but become a contagious mat­ ter. There were the old-timers leaning against the canes, enjoying their pipes and there was every­ thing in between them down to the school children who seemed more interested in having a good time than in admiring the plow­ manship of the day. One of the older spectators to take a hand in the novice class was 78-year-old John Allison of the Thamqs Road. You could tell just as soon as he started to strike down the furrow that a careful hand was at work right there and upon in­ quiries, suye eonugh he was a prize plowman of thirty-years and forty years ago. Mr. Allison recalled that the last match in which he took part was held in Usborne thirty-five years ago. There wer° eight in the class and besides win­ ning first place he won the specials for the best crown and finish. Which of course, is like taking home the bacon, when it comes to taking top honors at a match. Mr. and Mrs. Allison marked their golden anni­ versary on Wednesday and were a1: home to a large number of friends and acquaintances. The best-admired plowmanship of the whole day was the work of Austin Nairn, young Munro farmer, whose name is generally at the top of the list in the plowing matches in Western Ontario. Austin turned in first class work Thursday and was awarded top showing in his open class, along with both the prizes for crown and finish. Harold Carter, St. Marys, has been doing well again this year, winning top. honors in recent matches in the Lambton and Kent districts. An interested spectator at Thurs­ day’s match was Charles E. Taylor, of Richmond, Que. This is the first visit to this part of the country and he is just on his way back home after a rather extended visit to dif­ ferent parts of Canada, right thro’ to Vancouver. "I never realized what a country we live in. Of course down around my part of the coun­ try of Quebec there isn’t much dif­ ference to this part of the .country but I believe the tractors are more plentiful here,” he commented. This business of raising funds for the Red Cross .Society is quite a thing. At the South Huron plow­ ing match Thursday, representatives of the Hensall Red Cross Society were around the grounds selling chances on a pair of pigs, which of course were on display nearby. Late in the afternoon the stubs were mix* ed up and the pigs were won by Dave Robertson of Goderich. He immediately announced he would turn them back to the Red Cross for public auction and sure enough they were sold to the highest bid­ der . . . The weather continued ideal on Thursday and if memory serves well the directors of match had just about a perfect for their event a year ago . . . ministry was represented in non-plowers Mass by Rev. A. Gardiner of Egmondville. One of the old timers in this class was John Rowe, of Exeter, who is 8t2 years of age . . . We noticed they were doing some threshing across the match. Tn threshings throughout as farmers race against the weather . . . Incidentally the three prizes in the non-plowmen’s contest went to the three pld-timers, Mr. Ort­ wein, of Hensall, John Rowe, of Exeter and John McEwen, of Bru co­ field. ro a d fact and the in a field the plowing were many silo-fillings from there many district Thursday The funeral of ex-Mayor George H.

The flying boat Clare crossed the ocean four times and the Clyde once, in spite of the Avar and without mishap. Captain J. C. Keddy Rogers and Captain J. P. Kir ton were the skip­ pers. Among the passengers carried were Capt. H. H. Balfour, M.C., M.P., Under .Secretary of State, Bri­ tish Air Ministry: C. R. Fairey, the airplane manufacturer; Major R. H. .Mayo, designer of the "pick­ aback” plane, Mercury-Maia; and Air Marshall W. A. Bishop, X.C., the Canadian ace of the last war. The Trans-Canada Air Lines, as agent for British Overseas Airways was responsible for shore arrange­ ments at Boucherville, the. seaplane base on the St. Lawrence River near Montreal. The T.C.A. made arrangements with the Depart­ ment of Transport for provision of buoys and moorings, for radio com­ munication and for weather reports provided transportation for the passengers between base and Mont­ real, gave, them refreshments and looked after their tickets and their laggage. The T.C.A. also handled mail and express, most of which was diplomatic material. The Clare and Clyde took off from Poole (Southampton) crossed to Foynes, Erie, and then flew the Atlantic to Botwood, Newfoundland The next stop was Boucherville, with New York as the final destin­ ation. On the return trip, the fly­ ing boats stayed over night at Bou- cherville and set out in the early hours of the following morning. The roads of Blanshard ship are receiving a coat of these days. S.

Town­ gravel Grand If there is music in Heaven - someipulpit pounders tell us - where do the musicians go when they have to tune their instruments? i i In its fight for the first O.B.A. Championship in the history of Hensall, Stan Tudor’s team defeat­ ed the Toronto Clumbus Grads be­ fore 80:0 fans in the second game of the play-offs at Hensall day of last week. The Grads won the first the series at Toronto. On day at Hensall they never were in, the picture. Hensall teed off on three Toronto pitchers, scattering extra-base hits all over the park. The home team scored three runs in the third innings, and got three runs in each inning after that, up to the seventh. They skipped the seventh, but made up for it in the eightlf'by getting four runs. The hard-hitting Duff Brown, Hensall’s second-sacker, contribut­ ed a three-base hit and a pair of singles, driving in three runs. Gibb Stade got two doubles and two sin­ gles, driving in three, and the Rev. William Weir, came through with three hits that drove in four runs. Jack Tudor, Hensall’s third base­ man, banged out a pair of two-base hits. Carter Kerslake, former Strat­ ford National pitcher, hurled steady ball for the home team, and seldom was in trouble, That his mates play­ ed fine baseball behind him was shown by the fact that Hensall turn­ ed in four double plays. Weir figured in one of ter Kerslake, Stade and tributed another, Weir accounted for a third double kill­ ing, and Stade staged one unassist­ ed. The October meeting of Caven W, >M, S. was held Thursday last at the home of Miss L. M. Jeckell. The meeting was presided over by Mrs. F. W. Gladman opening with the call to prayer. Miss M. Weekes led in the worship period. The min­ utes of the previous meeting were approved as read and arrangements made for the Thankoffering meet­ ing to be held in November. Miss Hatter reported on the Sup­ ply allocation for the coming year which was accepted, Mrs. Cann re­ minded the members that their re­ newal subscriptions to the Glad Tidings were due in November. Mrs. Sillery gave 'Current Events. Mrs. Whyte, Mrs. Sillery and Mrs. Cann were in charge of the program for the evening which consisted of a survey of the year’s work of the W. M. <S. compiled from their own Blue Book -which proved most in­ teresting and instructive to all present. Some of the high lights were the givings of the Mission Bands amounting to $10,758.00 which is more than sufficient to support the Abbe Memorial Home for Children and also the givings of the Home Helpers totalling $11,- 527.00' for the past year. As Cus­ tomary, a social half hour was en­ joyed at the close of the meeting. EMPIRE WORK WITH INSECT PARASITES COMES TO CANADA Tudor and them.

Thompson, Assistant Director, Imperial Institute of En­ tomology and 'Superintendent of the Insect Parasite Laboratory, Farn­ ham Royal, Buckinghamshire, Eng­ land, has been transferred to Belle­ ville, Ontario, to continue his work of the laboratory. He will have at his disposal in Belleville the facil­ ities of the Dominion Insect Para­ site Laboratory, which incidentally is the largest and best equipped in­ stitution of its kind in the world. The reason for ,Mr. Thompson’s, transfer is that since the occupa­ tion of several European countries, by Germany, it has become impos­ sible to collect insect parasites for propagation and distribution to Empire Countries. Canada and the United States offer for the collection of parasites, which to continue work which he has been years at Farnham Royal. His work at Belleville will be carried on for the benefit of all parts of the Bri­ tish Empire, as it was at Farnham Royal. Dr. Thompson was born at Bel­ mont, Ontario, and is a graduate of the Ontario Agricultural College. For several years he was on the ■staff of the Bureau of Entomology United States Department of Agri­ culture. In 1912 he went to Italy for’ the U. S.
