Nicholson. Rev. Mr. Ramsay said: "We are here this afternoon to pay tribute to the memory of the late Burnham Mallory, and in thinking of his life one is reminded of the words of St. Paul to Timothy in which he said, He was a workman that needeth not to be ashamed. The deceased was not spectacular, but a workman ap- proved of God and he needed not to be ashamed. He was a pioneer in the dairy industry of this country and his foresight in the early years 11 has brought the industry to its high standing of to -day. He served his :native township well and he served the interests of Hastings county as a whole and in his kindly, thought- ful and quiet spirit endeared himself with all with whom he came in eon - teat. . "In his office of treasurer he was painstaking and trustworthy to the highest degree, For many years he was an elder of the church and his kindly smile and helpful words were aways an inspiration to th minister. "The sympathy goes out to the bereaved family but we can only re- mind one another that God is the real workman and that He has call- ed him home with "the well elone, good and faithful servant." "If we might draw a lessen from the life of Burnham Mallory he gave the greatest contribution that can ba given. Not ,wealth did he give to Isis conslnunith but strenuous service and character, and that is the foun- dation of all excellent service." The last two days of the third session of the sixteenth legislature of Ontario were devoted to the far mer and Isis troubles except for the several hours which were given to Hon. Chas. McCrea, Minister of Mines, mil Jas, Lyons, former Min- ister of Lands and Forests, to adver- tise their departments. The debate heralded no announcements of any concrete help to the farmer and was barren of results except that it gave W. E. N. Sinclair, Liberal Leader, the opportunity to point out that the department of agricuture had ceased to function properly if a special com al.:Mee costing. $30,000 was neces- sary to secure informatton about agricultural problems in Ontario. Mr. Sinclair pointed to the depart- ment of agriculture as being one of the best organized departments in the government on paper. It had nine branches covering every acti- vity of farmSng life' from production to marketing. and yet a special com- mittee had worked for two years dig- ging up information that the depart- ment should have been able to sec- ure much more easily. Mr. Sinclair also scored the government and, if silence is consent, is admitted. The session as a whole has been without any great feature except as a show of overhearing Tory major- ity rule. Every line of investigation was stopped by the majority and ev- ery bit of legislation which might be troublesome was forced through with PERTH COUNTY Mitchell's hall' holidays commence on May 5 and end September 29.

The Premier evaded ev- ery challenge for declarations of Policy and even his own followers of some independence were left in the dark. The Premier ignores even Parliament now as he says himself "when the government decides upon ' : a poltcy it will say so and go to the • people." Parliament is apparently aso longer to be taken into the con- fidence of the government. The session passed 139 bills out of 191 presented. The great majority are private bills. The only legisla- • tion of any great account was the bill to do away with bye -elections for men appointed to cabinet posts with- in two months of a general election. There is a general opinion that a general election will be held this year on some kind of a liquor policy which is still a riddle as far as that govern- ment is concerned. At any rate there will be seven bye -elections. If these come shortly there will be no general election. 1 The government has neglected to a do so many things in Parliament that there are as many open ques- tions around Queen's Park as there were before the session opened.

He was born on April 9th, 1854, and would have celebrated his sev- enty-second birthday on Friday of this week had he lived. He was a native of Sidney township where he spent the whole of his life except for the time about one year while lie was domiciled in Belleville. He was the son of the late Bradley Mal- lory. His grandfather was born in Con- riectieut 'in 1782 of Puritan Stock, came to Canada and settled in Ma - dock township when a young man. His mother's father was born in Scotland,came to Canada when six years of age, and when a young man married the eldest daughter of Col. Wm. Ketcheson, making a combina- tion of Puritan, Scotch and U.E.L. Stock, Mrs. Mallory, who was a daughter of Edwin Reid, died two years ago. He is survived by three daughters Mrs. (Rev.) David Wren, of Mid - and; Mrs. Bentham, of Montreal, nd Miss Maude at home, and three sons, Edwin, of Beaverton; Fred, of Sidney, and Lawrence, of Belleville. Mr. Mallory was a member of the . . ., ansi the A.O.U.W. He was a member of John Street United Church and for many years was a member of St. Andrew's Presbyter . Ian Church, in which he had held of - i fies. 1 Burnham Mallory was one of the I outstanding agriculturists of Sidney. i He spent practically the whole of his . life engaged in the basic industry, Idevoting the greater part of his at- tention to dairying. His interest in I farm life led him early into a num!, ; cipal career. ! Burnham Mallory entered the Sid - nay Council in 1894 and the County Council in 1899 as successor to J. S. Dench, became county treasurer Ap- ril 1, 1905 . He represented the Quinte District on the Agricultural and Arts Associatton during the last two years of its existence, was a number of years with the Farmers' Institute and County Secretary of the Patrons of Industry. Mr. Mallory had a splendid record as a farmer, being one of the oldest breeders of Holstein cattle, bringing the ,firet anisnals of this kind into Hastings in 1885. In 1919 he be- came president of the Canadian Hol- stein Breeders' Association, and since then, one of its :auditors. He was for years secretary-treai- urer and director of the Belleville Cemetery Company. He was a care- ful, painstaking official, who will be greatly rides:id. Deceased was of a quiet disposi- tion which won hirn many friends. His knowledge of agriculture was thorough and almost half a century ago lie caught a vision of the possi- bfities of dairying. How wisely he judged the trend et the future is in- dicated by the strides which the dairy branch has made. Throughout On - tail° and Canada Mr. IVIallery was looked upon as one of the pioneers and the entire rural life of the pro- vince honored him. Warden G. ,33. Aivhart, who was in the city this afternoon, and who as Chairman of Finanee in the past two years was brought into close touch with the deceased official, paid a tribute to his memOry: "1 always found hini an obliging official, and one who was very efficient. willing at all times to inconvenience himself or the benevt of the rate payers of he eounty."

Are we going to have the future Meter- ians chronicle what this committee did?" Mr. Haney—"I am not interested in what posterity thinks."

Acton Free Press:—The introduc- tion of modern improvements does not always ensure the highest degree of efficiency. During the late years all the Free Press machinery has been operated by electricity and the metal pot of the linotype Is always heated by electricity. During the big storm last week the electric pow- er was off for eighteen hours on pub- lication day, and every machine was stalled. Because of this the Free Press missed the first mails on Thurs- day morning. This is the first time our staff has failed in catching the mails on publication day for forty- seven years. The last occasion was in April, 1879, when the Free Press Office was partly destroyed by fire on Publication day. amateemparromenemarnamotaxemotemie ake a dak W ithFou iNC 'DENTS on the hunt and events around the house make pictures you'll enjoy more and more, Snapshots of the children you'll refer to with pleasure again and again.
