"Following a short illness of a few weeks the death occurred on Thurs- day evening, March 23rd, of Mr, Fred Yungbiut, a resident of Hullett township. Deceased was visiting at the haeme of his daughter, where he was taken ill and, despite everything that could be done, he gradaaliy weakened till the end came. About a month ago he celebrated his 30th, birthday, on his farm, which was rented to Mr. Clarence Walden and which he called his home on the lith concession of Hullett, He was then in his usual good health. Mr. Ynngblut was born at Tavi- stock, coming up to Hullett after his marriage, nearly sixty years ago. For many years he had resided an his farm on the 11th, where he made a success of farthing. He was also very fond of a geed horse and in 1902 be made a trip to the old country and imported a. fine animal.

Debus and son and Mr. Andrew Yunghlut of Rostock, al- so friends from Hespeler. A TRIBUTE TO THE COUNTRY CORRESPONDENT The following from the Star Weekly, which was probably written by .1". T. Clark, editor of time Daily Star, who began his career on a town weekly, was connected with one or another hi his earlier years and for a time edited the Pickering News, has evidently not forgotten the im- portance of the country correspon- dent. The News -Record heartily couture in this trihnte, with its own valued staff in mind: "There appeared this week in On- tario papers a brief notice of the death of an old citizen of Western Ontario. He was, although the .,no. tice did not say so, a member of a large seldom -mentioned class, a: claw which is not enumerated in the de-. cennial census or listed in director ie;. He was, or had been for many years of his life, the "country eor• respondent" of at least one news- paper. • From the little place where ho lived, he kept, sending in bud, gets of news which, in his years :of service, trust have. amounted tc thousands of columns. Most of the items wege no doubt trivial in their nature. But they were of great in- terest to the people of that and neighboring communities. They were the sort ,of thing, that people talk a- bout in the family circle (which it seldom more than an arc nowadays) and wherever folks gather together to converse. Metropolitan newspapers do not give their.readers this service, In the nature of things; it is impossible for them to cover their territory, or even that part of it which is closest home, in the minute way which local papers in smaller centres of popula- tion can do. The latter, in their pub, notion of "country correspondence" feet' neighboring villages and,bam- lets, give their rerdors `ootniethinrr which the big city daily cannot of fer. And local papers which &vol - op this feature entrench themselves BIRTHS McCLINGHEY—At- Auburn, ori Marr 24th, to Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Me- Clinchey, a, daughter. DEATHS YUNGBLUT—At • Londesboro, on Mar. 23rd, Frederick Yungblut,• his 80th year. WHEATLE.Y In Clinton, on Mao 27th, Elizabeth A. Stevens, wife of Jiesep'h H. Wheatley, in her Goth year. in the affections of their readers. So the eountry correspondent, serving, often without pay, is an im- portant man—important not only to the newspaper which he serves, but. to the community whose goings'on he records. He can, over a period of years, do a great deal for it and for its people. Often -he is a man of considerable ability (the present Lord Greenwood was the country correspondent of an Ontario paps' while he was teaching school in this province), but even if his literary talents are small, his record of ev- ents is eagerly scanned by a Section of the countryside. City people are sometimes inclin- ed to be amused when they rear' these humble chronicles. They think it is of little interest to anybody that So-and-so "Sundayed" on a nearby -adjoining farm or visited re- latives in some seldom-heard-ef ham- let. They cannot understand why a newspaper should chronicle the painting of somebody's barn or the purchase by someone of a new motor car. Yet if they will only stop to consider, this is exactly the sort of thing that they talk of themselves— the comings and goings !ef people,' the purchase of this one and the fact that So-and-so burnt herself with the curling iron. This, in large cit ies, as in small villages, constitute= the bulk of conversation. Even the great talk thus. There are several geed stories told about the conversa- tions of the groat which have been eagerly overheard, but have turned out to be utterly uninmportant in subject matter and treatment. The country correspondent is all right. The census man does not ask him about this branch of his world the newspaper probahly does not pay hien for it, and nothing is said about it on his tombstone. But he gets very close to the things that his home folk are, interested in, and ,if he is often not a very great journal- ist, is at least a very real news - gatherer. The local newspaper that employs an efficient staff of these Wren and women is 'cultivating a field in which no -outside newspaper can compete." BANK ROBBERS STILL ON JOB The Bank of Commerce at Tlderton was held up by a couple 9f robbers Yesterday about noon and the man - ogee, who evidently did not "stick 'em up" quick enough, was rather seriously injured by a shot from the pistol of me of the men. Another member of the staff returned the fire of the robbers and it is thought thal one of the robbers was injured, but they ran to their car and got away.
