James,•29, and Boyd John- ston, 25, both with no fixed place of abode. They are in the county jail charged with vagrancy and meantime the police are trying to find the owners of several new suits of clothes, overcoats, ties, shoes, etc., and a considerable quantity ,of to- bacco and cigarettes. It was all contained in a large sack which James and Johnston had cached. So far they have showed no inclination to tell how it came into their possession and an effort is be- ing made to trace tho goods through manufacturers. The pair were arrested by Con- stable Gundry while trudging along No, 8 highway, near Clinton. They had been seen carrying the heavily - laden sack, but wheal the police aps peered it had disappeared. After questioning they led the police to the hiding place, Viscount Grey, One of Eng- land's Most Outstanding Statesmen -of Recent Years is Dead Viseount Grey of F allodcn, who as Sir I(dward Grey was Secretary of Foreign Affairs, in 1014 at the op- ening of the Great war, died this week. He did as much as any man could to avert the war, but when it could not be avert- ed l'e was unwavering in the carry. ing out of his policies. Ile retired from office in December 1016 and, excepting a visit to Washington in 1910, he has lived in almost complete retirement since, I•Ie has however, been constant in the support of the League of Nations the fulfilment of an ideal he had coneieved even be- fore the tear. The failure of the Visited States to join in the League which it had helped to create was to him a keen disappointment. The death of his wife a few years ago was a great sorrow as their mar- ried life was singularly happy and owing to his failing eyesight his wife was his almost constant companion. ONTARIO MOTORISTS TAKE NOTE Hon. Leopold M:aeaulev spent six weeks in the Old Country observing the actions and habits of British drivers. "Frankly, I was amazed," he said in a radio address the other evening. "I have revised my opin- ion of Ontario drivers. I am sure that it would amaze you, as it did me, to watch the average British, driver make a sharp' turn or pass an intersection, to see how completely he ebeys directional or instructional signs or warning signals.; The care and foresight, that most show would make the average Ontario driver ap- pear the veriest tyro 01 else a plain daredevil." All of which is com- mended to the consideration of On, tarso motorists. --•The Mail and Empire, • DUNIGANNON: A pleasant time was spent at Woodbine Cottage, the home of Mr. and Mrs. Bert Treleaven con. 7, Ashfield Friday evening, on the occasion of the celebration of their "China" wedding.

THIEVES BUSY IN THIS VICINITY FARMERS 'IN TUCKERSMITH AND GODERICII TOWNSHIP LOSE VALUABLE FOWL AND GRAIN Thieves are getting pretty bold hereabouts, some of them seemingly making a big business of it. On Monday night Mr. H. Snell of the London Road and Mr. Fred. Potter •cf Goderich township each lost a lot of valuable fowl, a truck, evidently the same one, calling ane cleaning out their chicken houses. At i4Ir. Potter's about ninety birds were taken, at Mr. Snell's one hun- dred and eighty five, pullets. The inference is that the parties knew tho premises and what they were likely to got. At Snell's they diel not go in through the lane but going down the sideroad they went through the fifty -acre farm of Mr. Nott to get to Mr. Snell's chicken house, situated behind the barn, which is between that and the house. Managing this they were reasonably secure from interference as there was little danger of arousing the in- mates of the house. Tho chickens stolen were pullets, all ready to lay, sone of them al- ready laying, and represented the whole summer's work in the poultry department of that farm. Mr. Potter lost about ninety birds, sixty-five of them being fattened and almost ready for the market. They approached the Potter place in about the same way as at Snell's going down the 14th concession in- stead of going in from the IIuron road. In this way they avoided the house and got nearer the chicken house, and were able to make a clean sweep. Some are of the opinion that these thefts aro made by drivers of trucks, who come here from the cities and who are in the habit of calling at these farms and know where the good stuff is and the lay out of the fal•ms. It is evident that whoever made those hauls knew the ground and just how to come by the stuff they were after. Chickens are not the only stuff sought, however, as last week one night Mr. Edgar Trewartha lost fifty bushels of 'barley from a barn on an unoccupied farm. a truck coming to his barn and loading it up. Two trips were made aad Mr.. Trewartha's bags taken, The people who had planned to. steal the chickens per- haps thought they had better have some feed ready before bringing them home. ? b ,s A couple of young men were pick- ed up by the county police and taken to Goderich the other day and are being held pending inquiries. Some- one is wanted for the theft of money from summer cottages at Grand' Bend and for several other minor thefts. A sackcontaining clothing, cigars ettes, tobacco, etc., was discovered under a warehouse' near the stetter in Clinton, thought to have been hidden there by the young fellows appre- hended. The authorities are en- deavoring to identify the articles found with those stolen at different points. r r Thieves are getting so bold that the authorities will have to exercise particular diligence to put a stop to their operations.

She brought to Huron Presbyterial the sincere greetings of the Provincial Board, She said: "These are days very different from any days pan and I have lived in be- fore, but one thing I do know is that we have learned to discriminate, and learned to put value where value belongs. We are at the point of discriminating in,values, We do it in business, in housekeeping, whether we can afford it or not and our mis- sionary work is no exception. Quiet acquiesence and falling in line does not bring results. The missionary enterprise begun 2,000 years ago, 10 ono of the world's great movements, particularly so now when the need is greater. If women are going to do their work in the world. they inusr have a knowledge of world events; so it behooves us to be up and alert." Mrs. McLennan described the na- tional and overseas work of the W. M.S. Ten new missionaries have been sent to Formosa since 1925. In India there was only one missionary. now there are nineteen.
