At that time she was a member of the Methodist Church, joining by letter what was then known as Tramping Lake Cir­ cuit. She was fclso one of the Char­ ter Stewards and until the time of her death, took a very lively interest in the church and its many activi­ ties. In making mention of the life of the deceased, Rev. C. H. Whit­ more, minister in charge of the United Church, paid a great tribute to her in the course of his address during the funeral service which took place on Tuesday afternoon and which was largely attended by many friends while members of the Wilkie Rebekah Lodge were present as an organization. Mrs. Hetherington is survived by one daughter, Mrs. W. Payne, re­ siding some 20 miles north and east of Wilkiej and five sons, Joe, Tiffin, Melvyne, Harvey and Roy. One bro­ ther survives, Joseph Tiffin, residing at Whitechurch, Ontario. The pallbearers were her five sons and one grandson (a son of Mrs. W. Payne.) Interment was made in Wil­ kie cemetery.

The eggs are snowy white, perfectly round and about the size of an av­ erage plum. “HOME AGAIN” In a radio address this week, Mr. R. J.
