WROXITER.
A highly esteemed resident of the
village passed away on Sunday last in
the person of Thomas Higgins; in his
73rd year. Mr. Higgins had been in
poor health for some time and the end
was not unexpected. He spent his
early life in Stanley township and the
family moved up to Turnberry and he
lived for some years on the 6th con-
cession and later moved to the Hugh
Ross farm east of Bluevale. A few
years ago he gave up farming and had
since lived retired in this village. In
religion the deceased was a Methodist
and in politics a Conservative. He was
highly esteemed by a large circle of
friends. He is survived by his widow
and grown up family. The funeral
took place on Tuesday afternoon to the
Wroxeter cemetery.
FORDW IOH.
The home of Mr. Thos. Atkins of the
Hill is all sorrow and mourning owing
to the death of the mother, which sad
event occurred on Tuesday morning,
April 18th. The deceased was born at
Orange Hill 58 years ago, her maiden
name being Mary Ann Wiggins. She
was married in 1876 to her now bereft
husband and together they success-
fully braved the struggles incident to
pioneer life. She had been ailing for
over a year with a complication of
diseases, all of which she bore with
genuine Christian fortitude. She was
a consistent member of the Fordwich
Presbyterian Church and was beloved
by all her neighbours. She leaves be-
hind her to mourn their loss, a
sorrowing husband, three daughters,
Edna, Mrs. Johnston McFadden, Mill-
bank; Bertha, Mrs. Henry Young,
Belmore, and Mary, at home, and two
sons, Norman, in the West, and Harold,
at home. The sympathy of the com-
munity is extended to the bereft in the
irreparable void and loss which the
healing hand of time may miligate but
cannot wholly remove.

The 161st Battalion has been ordered to mobolize about May 15th id at FULL STRENGTH. Will your County be humil-
iated by having the first battalion she was authorized to form go intolamp UNDER STRENGTH? Will the word "HURON'
g
ever stand as a word of reproach throughout the Empire? Or wihe people of this County rally to their pride and HONOUR?
...
VINOMMUNMINOWINIONIMI
TO THE MEN: -
The business of the young man
of the county today is ths ed
comple-
tion of the battallion she
to form.
Kitchener urges "men and more
men." Canada has promised him
500,000. Will you be one?
Are you content to remain at
home in ease and reap business take
vantages while other men
your place in the firing line?
Will your conscience remain
the
clear and clean each day of
long years to come?
Does the sight of your c
in
khaki leave you untroubled
undisturbed?

THE LAST COLL FOR VOLENTEERS
Make such sacrifice as may be
necessary (the Empire is worthy
of them) to enable you to take your
place in your County Battalion.
ENLIST and ENLIST today with
the knowledge that, at last, you
are playing the part of a MAN.
TO MOTHERS, WIVES AND SISTERS: -
Do you know what is happening
to women in Europe today?
Do you know what the women
of Belgium, of Servia, of Flanders
and even of your own race in the
old land have suffered by the in-
vading Huns?
Do you know that thousands and
tens of thousands, with their little
ones, are driven starving from
their homes to die in misery; that
they are being violated and
slaughtered. ?
Do you realize that if this war is
not fought out in Europe that you
and your children may be forced
to share the suffering of those in
Europe?
Do you realize that if Canada is
to protect her people, her homes
and her liberty, her men must be
given without stint to take part
in this great struggle?
Thousands of glorious mothers, wives and sisters have
given their clearest to this cause of humanity and of empire.
Can you meet this type of womanhood in social intercourse?
Are you content to see other mothers, wives and sisters
proudly sending off their manhood to protect your and your
men -folk?
Or will you meet the burden of this generation with
COURAGE "the highest of divine virtues?"
