tomatoes and all were taken ill, on
_Sunday. The local doctor was called
and he did everything he could but

til he telephoned Kansas City, when
it was sent from there to Detroit by

YOUNG MAN CALLED
The following from Saturday's
Free Press refers . to the untimely
death of a grandson of the late Mrs.
James H. Lindsay, a nephew of Mr.
Chas. Lindsay and Miss E. Lindsay
of town. Miss Lindsay was in Lon-
don assisting in the nursing of her
nephew for a few days before his
death:
THE LOCAL HOSPITAL
We betimes forget to be thankful
for the splendid institutions in our
own community—your hospital is one
sof them—in fact we are apt to look
for small defects instead of large
service, and unwittingly destruct by
careless spoken words or indifferent
actions. Be careful before you
criticize. If you do hot construct --
do
do not destruct.
The Little Country Hospital
(Written by Edgar A. Guest, and
taken from American Hospital Bulle-
tin.)
The little country hospital is hidden
out of view
And people seldom notice it as plea-
sure they pursue,
But let an accident befall, which is the
fate of men—
The proudest man is glad to see the
small town doctor then
And in that little hospital, which Inane
• ble folk maintain,
He'll find that hearts are merciful and
quick to comfort pain.
"Dr. Kenneth M. Lindsay, one of
the most popular graduates of the
University of Western Ontario Medi-
cal School and widely known in this
city, died shortly after midnight this
morning at the residence of his par-.
ents, Dr. and Mrs. J. C. Lindsay, 719
Dundee street. Although born in
I•Iuron County, deceased, who was 31'
year's of age, spent the greater part
of his life in London, graduating
from Central Collegiate and continu-
ing his studies at Western, where he
graduated in 1928.
Active in sports Dr. Lindsay war
a member of the interne staff of Vic-
toria Hospital following his gradua-
tion, holding the post of senio
houseman for a year. With members
of the medical profession and pat-
ients alike he was extremely well
liked. Leaving the local hospital he
went to New Ycrk State Hospital at
Buffalo, where he was married to
Miss Alma Carl'others, a member of
the nursing profession. While at-
tending Western he was a member of
the senior rugby team, prominent in
the various societies of the university
and a member' of the Delta Upsilion
Fraternity.
Dr. Lindsay had been ill two
months.
Surviving him are his wife, his
parents, one brother, James, of Mon
areal, and one sister, Miss Helen at
home."
The funeral took place on Monday
afternoon in London, Clinton rela-
tives going clown for the services.
It isn't like the city place, with sec-
tions blocks apart,
'Where every patient's listed as a
number on a chart
And specialists for this and that con-
vene to thumb him o'er
And ask a thousand questions of the
ills he's had before.
For in the country hospital, which
lacks all pomp and style
The surgeon on his morning round
has time to chat awhile.
And whether pain be in your groin,
your stomach or your toe,
The cause of it the doctor there,as-
suredly will know.
He will not shunt you round the place
for rays of that and this,
He'll diagnose your case himself and
very seldom miss.
And whosoe'er shall tread the hall
when you are free from pain
Will stop to speak a cheery word and
wish you well again.
So little country hospital, which hum-
ble folk support,
Which struggles for existence, since
funds are sometimes short,
I -pay-thus simple tribute now to all
your tender care
In lessening the hurt and pain which
mortals have to bear,
And pray. for God's rich blessing on
the 'nen and women brave
Who give their every ounce of
"strength—another's life to Save..

THE OPENING OF THE GYPSUM-
VILLE UNITED CHURCH
(The following is from Miss Mar-
garet, Mustard; Superintendent of a
Mission Hospital at (Gypsumville,
Man., who decided also to• build a
church and after a struggle sees the
edifice ready for use. It will be in-
teresting to many hereabouts to read'
of this church opening as Miss'Mus-
tard's work has been watched with
interest by many and has been help-
ed a little.).
"Gypsumville, Manitoba, March
10th, 1933.
Dear News-Record:—I know my
subscription is a little late this year;
but that is because I delayed this
letter to give you a letter about our
Church opening. I am enclosing it
with this and also $1.50 for my sub-
scription to The News -Record.
We have all been saddened by the
news of Dr. Gandier's death, but we
are also much richer for having
known him.
We have had' a very severe winter.
The thermometer going as low as 60
but such lovely sunshine and healthy
weather. I love the Western Win-
ters.
At last our Church was ready to
be opened and dedicated. Our week-
end of special activities really start-
ed on Friday when we had our day
of Prayer Service, the very first
service to be held in the new Church.
We had a splendid turn -out of our
women and had a social hour togeth-
er in the basement after the meet-
ing.
Dr. 0. W. Gordon, (Ralph Connor).
and his wife, who is our Provincia'
President of W.M.S., had arranged
to come to us to open and dedicate
our Churdh and on the evening trair
of March the 3rd they arrived. Mr.
A. R. Hall of the Anglican Church
was to have been with us, too, but
owing to anunfortunate change in
dates he was not present.
Sunday morning dawned bright
and clear and as the hour for ser-
vice drew near the people poured in-
to the wee Church. I thought as I
watched them coming in from all
directions of how long we had wait-
ed and worked and prayed for this
great day when we would see a
Church opened in Gypsumville.
By eleven o'clock the Church was
well filled and Dr. Gordon began his
service. There were both children
and adults present who had never
been in a Church before, who had
never had an opportunity to be in
one.. One wonders what their im-
pressions were, what they carried a-
way; for surely God was with us ane'
fed us with the bread of life. Dr.
Gordon had two splendid services
and addressed the Sunday school in
the afternoon. Besides the special
service of dedication in the morning
there was a Baptismal service.
On Monday night the Church was
filled again and Dr. Gordon gave a
most interesting address en the
League of Nations which he visited
in Geneva a short time ago. Mrs.
Gordon also spoke to the audience on
Monday night, relating what the Uni-
ted Church mission had done for
Gypsumville and what she hoped it
. would yet de.
On Tuesday at 4 a.m. we saw Dr.
and Mrs. Gordon off on the train to
Winnipeg. Our wonderful week -enc'
was over, but as we looked at our
Church against the skyline at that
early hour, we felt that our work in
Gypsumville was but well begun.

HULLETT FARMER WINS DAMA-
GES FROM TWO TOWNSHIPS
An action launched over four years
ago by James Medd, Hallett Town-
ship farmer, against the townships
of Hallett and McKillop in which the
plaintiff asked $1,100 for damage
caused by the flooding of his farm
through -the alleged faulty gcnstruc
tion of a' drain, was heard in Goderich
last week by George F. Henderson,
drainage referee of Ottawa. After
an all -day hearing, Mr. Medd was a-
warded $420 and costs, to be assess•
ed against the drainage scheme.
Scores of farmers, many of their
witnesses, were present in court, as
were the reeves, councillors and road
superintendents of the two town
ships. Mr. Medd owns 150 acres in
the neighborhood of the Kinburn
swamp and his claim was that in 1927
and 1928 he had ,30 acres of crop
ruined by floods when the drain fail-
ed to function properly. He started
his action in county court, but it was
later referred to the referee.
Evidence was given that part of
the Medd farm, located on the fifth
concession of Hallett, was flooded so
badly in 1928 that cattle had to swim
to safety. H. G. Mier, Seaforth, act-
ed for the Township of Mullett, J. C.
Making, K.C., for McKillop Town-
ship, and R. C. Hays, Jr'., :for Mr.
Medd.

GRACE PERIOD FOR`
AUTOISTS IS OVER
TORONTO, March 14.—'No furth-
er extension of the grace period to
auteists who have not obtained their
1933 license plates will be granted
according to Hon. Leopold Macauley,
minister of highways for Ontario.
Those motorists who drive after
March 15 with their 1932 plates will
find themselves liable to prosecution
for breach of the Highway Traffic
Act.
"The 1933 permits and licensee
have been available now for 'three
full months and I feel that no fur-
ther extension is possible," said the
minister. "The extension was per-
mitted originally to allow those suf-
fering temporary financial embar-
rassment to obtain their permits
without hardship."
GODERIOII: "Perjury is one of-
fense we should endeavor to rid our
courts o'.f. I abhor it, and on nay ap-
pointment to the bench,' resolved to
deal severely with the first case that
came before me. In latter years
there has been an utter disregard
for the truth in quite too many
cases." So spoke ,Tudge T. M. Cos-
tello Friday afternoon in county
criminal court in sentencing Clark
Stanley, age 27, Blyth farmer, to
one month in carman jail for swear-
ing. falsely in giving evidence at a
police court trial. Stanley pleaded
guilty. The prisoner was. told that
leniency was 'extended only because
he is a married man with two young
children and a longer term would
not permit him to do his spring
work on his farm. The sentence
dates back to February 18, the date
on which the charge was laid, Ac-
cused is at present serving a two-
month term en a liquor charge. A"
his trial he swore he had never had
liquor on his premises, had never
sold any to three crown witnesses.

SALMON OIL FOUND RICH IN
VITAMINS
Health -Making Element in Oil Mixed
Through Flesh of Valuable
Canadian Fish
also very rich in vitamins and hence
their medicinal value.
The particular salmon research, in
question here was not conducted in
Canada but the oil samples samp es used
werefrom salmon the of same var-
ieties as occur in British Columbia
waters where the fish are of high
quality. At the present time some re-
search as to the nutritive value of
salmon is being carried on at the
Prince Rupert Experimental Station
of the Biological Board of. Canada and
it will doubtless bring out further
interesting and important facts.
Canadian salmon are delicious and
nourishing fish but there's an added
reason why they make excellent food,
and that is because their body oil is
rich in vitamins essential to health,
Vitamin A and Vitamin D both'oc-
cur in salmon oil and the presence of
Vitamin D is especially important
since this vitamin is so valuable an
agent in preventing and curing such
ills as rickets.
•
Recent research has indicted that
salmon oil is similar to recognized
medicinal fish oils in vitamin potency
and since the oil is mixed through
the flesh of the fish persons using
salmon on the table will obtain from
it the vitamin supply necessary to
good health. So far as salmon in
the canned form is concerned, the re-
search lies apparently not shown it
to be very high in Vitamin A con-
tent but rich in Vitamin D. Certain
fish liver oils, such as cod liver oil
and halibut liver coil, of course, are

ODDRICH: 'P
G he public school
board has submitted its estimates for
1933 which call for $20,500, or $1,000
less than in 1932, despite the assur-
ance of a reduced Government grant.
Contrary to expectations, the salary
schedule is maintained, the plea be-
ing put forth that primary school
teachers' salaries here have always
been lower than in towns of similar
size. This year, the board carried ov-
er ,a surplus of $471.19. Economies
in maintenance are to be made, and
there is to be no capital expenditure
this year.

has contributed $1400 for relief,
which has all been spent. February
needs went up to almost $1,000.
