Personally, we still like to feel that we can pay our.
own way, particularly When it comes to matters as inti—
mate as the health of our own physical welfare. It is true,.
of course, that no average wage earner can be sure that
he will have enough money on hand to look after those
expensive emergencies which occasionally send a husband, •
wife or child to hospital for months at a stretch. In order
to meet these emergencies the most of us have followed FORTY YEARS AGO

Port Stanley was invited to enter closed talks with the
municipal councils of St. Thomas annd London. The vil-
lage council endorsed a motion that they should attend,
but under a measure of protest because the press was to :r,

The funeral of John Joynt, Luck-
now, former Conservative M.L.A. for
forth Huron, who died at his home
'Thursday night, was held Monday
afternoon, under the ausipces of the
Masonic Order, A public service was
held in the United Church and inter-
ment took place in Greenhill ceme-
tery. Mr. Joynt was, during his life,
actively engaged in the affairs of
Lucknow, being at various times
councillor, magistrate and reeve. Lat-
er he was a member of the Provincial
House for North Huron, from 1919 ttk
1926. From 1915 to 1919 he was propri-
etor of The Advance Newspaper in
Wingham.
People who were of the opinion we
do /lot have old-fashioned winters,
had their ideas chariged (and how)
last week. All day Thursday and Fri-
day the highways were plugged with
snow, 26 inches of it, that fell during
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.
The storm was accompanied by a high
wind which piled the snow in great
drifts in many places. The sideroads
were jammed full. The plow came
through from the south on Highway
No. 4 on Friday evening and went
through to the Durham Road. The
bus and trucks followed in its wake
and this road has since been, in good
• shape. Cars cannot operate yet on the
sideroads, so old Dobbin once again
