"While deeply regretting the sad,acci- dent, we find by the evidence produced that every precaution was taken to avoid the accident by Mr. Cross. and therefore we exonerate the said Everett Cross ( all responsibility in connection therewith.

Elsie Ferguson, the ,' most beautiful artist of the American I drama, snakes her motion picture debut in "Barbary Sheep," kw Artcraf1 pictures. • One of the most prominent exponents of the true dramatic art, Miss Ferguson brings to the screen a rare personality and adds greatly to its potency as a high- class amusement. Miss Ferguson's career on the stagsS started at foe bottom. Through cbaract natio persistency and hard work she has become one of the most popular actresses of the world. In 'Barbary. Sheep,'' adapted from Robert }lichensmost popular book since "The Garden of Allah." Miss Ferguson is ' given a vehicle that riot only is particu- larly adapted to her capabilities, but one that offers her a moat lavishly artistic !background. Under the direction of Maurice Tourisme, the well-known Fangio • producer. some of the most elaborate Oft ever staged for a photoplay are presented in novel display. The romantic story of Algeria which, tells of the infatuation of an Englrh noblewoman for a dark -skin - 1 lied army officer, as told on the screen. 1 may achieve greater popularity than even ' the book experienced. 1 Among the marry Interesting features displayed by this production are the views of hfe in Algerlit, setting forth the my'- tery, fascination and strange atmosphere of the desert.

Laithwaite in the loss of his partner in life. her death hav- ing taken place Friday morning of last week alter an illness of some months. The deceased, whose maiden name was Martha Jenkins, was born in Goderich township seventy-nine years ago and lived in that township all her life until with her husband she came to Goderich eighteen years ago. Her parents. the late Mr. and Mrs. William Jenkins, came from Wales and were among the earliest settlers in Goderich township. Besides her husband, one son and two daughters survive: George and Mrs. William Driver, of the Heron road. and Mrs. H. L. Salkeld. of the Bayfield road. Roland and John Jenkins, both retired and living at Clinton, Mrs Robert Ferris. ' of Huliett. and Mrs. Giles Jenkins, of town. are brothers and sisters of the deceased. There are twelve grandchil- dren, six boys and six girls. The funeral took place on Sunday afternoon to Mait• land cemetery, Rev. Dr. Rutledge con ducting the services, which were attended by many old neighbors of the deceased in the township. The pallbearers were Wm. Snell of Hullett. T. R. Wallis of town.(;eorge Jenkins and Rees Jenkins of Goderich township. ' MORRiSON.-Op Christmas Day theie paseed away at her hone on Caledonia Terrace one of the toen's oldest residents -if not the oldest --in the person of Mrs. Morriston. Born in the Ness district in the island of Lewia.Scotla9d, she spent the greater part of her ninety-eight years of pilgrimage in this town. She belongs to that tine type of character to whom the Bible aad such books as "Grace abounding to the Chief of Sinners" are their 'chief source of comfort and delight'. A person b eathing the kindliest spirit and far from indifferent to the welfare of the mernhers of the community in which she lived since 1865. she nevertheless re- mained but little known owing to her quiet and retiring disposition. It was amongst her Highland kinsfolk that she was particularly known for her constant generosity and her prat ical sympathy toward those in need and in trouble. The language of her conversation and of her reading remained Gaelic to the end. One might winder that a person of so height an intellect end 'o exenined an under- standing should have shown aucfi irfdiffer encs to the acquirement and use of the English language, but her interests were so thoroughly of the world to come that the found her mother tongue comfortably competent to meet her need. She was Messed with a large lamihr, whoever cherished for her the profound affection and redeem that such worthy mothers inay look for hum' their children. Of the %di( members of net ftnntl she leave•. 'even lo mewtrn her loot, her talshtnd having predeceased her hy many years: Goderich Women's War Iuxi1 ary. The members of the Womep's War Auxiliary have kn tted and shipped since the outbreak of war 250 pairs of socks. Seventy -rte of those pairs have been ,hipped tkrough the Red Cross and the remainder sent direct to our men at the front for distribution. They a•so Presented each man of our own Huron Regiment with • two pairs each co the eve df their departure for training camp and two pairs each on the eve of their departure far nverspaa. Laos Christmas -time they raise the sum 1$100 to provide Chri-t• Inas dineeer Ion .tie Goderich boys in Eng- land. During the past few weeks they have purchased material and with the aid of other ladies of the town have made up the following garments for the Belgian and French refugees: 18 large underskirts, value.( at 19: 11 baby's shirts. value 115 50; 9 small n ghtdrea.es, valve 19; 16 large nightdresses. value StO: 15 children's dresses, value $30; 20 pairs children's drawers, value 110. making a total value of 883..50. They have also donated 150 to the Red Cross, and ex- pect to rename their. towing after the holiday season. The town of Goderich has been asked to raise a sum of money to send to the Belgian and French refugees to enable them to purchase the necessaries of life, So the members of the War Auxiliary in• tend making a house-to-house canvass early in the new year to raise money fur that purpose. We feel sure there will be a generous response to this appeal when we remember how greatly those poor people have suffered in so righteous a cause. 1. 0 HAMILTON, Pres. W. W. A. E. W.
