It was held in conjunction with the annual "Ladies' Night", end the ladies enjoyed every moment of it. Howard Trewar- tha, president of the elub, was chairman, W. P. Roberts, Tuckersmith Township farmer, in addressing the gathering, declared that "ag- riculture is the backbone of any economy," and that farmers have every reason to take pride in their vocation. Modern industrial organization, said Mr. Roberts, with its 40 -hour week, time -and -e -half for over- time, holidays with„pay, is "drain- ,ing away the labor force, the young people, who should be tak- ing over our farms.” J. E, Terry, "Heldman for the Holstein -Friesian .Association of Canada, gave Holstein breeders of Heron County great credit for their activities in connection with Black and White Show at Blyth Fair. Breeders would be well advis- ed, said Mr. Terry, to take ad- vantage of the present period of prosperity to set their affairs in order against times to come that may not be as good. It is a good time, he said, to be culling herds, —and the place for the culls to go, added Mr. Terry, is to the butcher. Leonard Leeming outlined plans. for a tour of breeding units at Woodstock, Waterloo, and Maple, to be condudted late in May or early in lune. Moving pictures of Holstein shows were screened. Refreshments were served. +•.-a-4.-6-sA+4.+-4 -4-o 9-4- Spring Concert Sponsored by Hospital Auxiliary RCAF Male Chorus and Assisting Artists Thursday, April 26 8.15 p.m. Ontario Street United Church ADMISSION,: SO cents Tickets on Sale at McEwan's 15-16-b •N• • -4-H-••+7+o44i+*-e-• $ S • •• - -e 4-$-Po•e-s 4..-..++rH i P-rodaation Public Notice is hereby given that a Vote of those entitled to vote thereon will be token on Monday, the 14th Day of May, A.D. 1951 as provided in the following By -Law: - BY-LAW NUMBER 9 FOR 1951 OF THE CORPORATION OF THE TOWN OF CLINTON.

Hocigert's nursing home, Exe- ter, in his 93rd year, Some three weeks ago Mr. Gram, while feeding his chick- ens, suffered a weak spell and lay on the wet ground for some- time before being noticed by some workers going by. They carried him into the house, but he never recovered from this fall, He was a familiar figure on the Hensall streets and until his fall drove and walked to the Post Office for his mail and was able to do his daily duties. He was always a friend of little children, Who loved to ride with him in the wagon daily, and he never tired of having them with him, He will be much missed by his family and a host of neighbours and friends. Deceased was horn in Hay Township and farmed on the Parr Line betbre taking ep resi- dence in 'Hensall 27 years ago. He was a member of the United Church.. Surviving are his widow, the former Louise Schellig; two sons, William, Shylock, Mich.; Percy, Caro, Mich.; one daughter, Ada, Adrian. Mich.; and one brother, Rev. Orland Gram, Aberdeen, Mich. Funeral service was held from Bonthron funeral home, Hensall, Tuesday afternoon, April 17, con- ducted by Rev. W.' J. Rogers. In- terment was in Hensall Union Cemetery. THE VOICE OF TEMPERANCE A year ago the Wingham Arena Committee was making plans for the installation of artificial ice. One of the men remarked, "Our biggest' headache is going to be liquor." Then he drew a Meth re of drinking in the bleacher, and bottles thrown on the ice. Now the first season on artificial ice is nearly over. It is very gratify- ing to learn that there has been a very minimum of trouble because of liquor. This proves that our young people do not need a bottle of liquor for an evening's enjoy- ment,, .It also proves that the lurid reports -of drinking in pub- lic are largely loose talk.-Advt. 16-b For Summer Homes and Cottages -- draws cold aft am 0/ ,swm —sends hot tit into fe• Pat it instead of heating amide—cite/times eta W. fuel—no mote eta evenings st caage.
