BARD LABOR
The Clinton Hydro Commission
will never earn a blue eagle. Last
night as we came down to the of-
fice, at about eight o'clock, there
was the Hydro . "washlady" scrub,
bing away at the tub in the Hydro
shop. We stopped to look, tee, and,
would you believe it, that poor "lady"
was chained to her job, so she
couldn't even straighten her back.
Its all right to push the sale of elec-
tric appliances, but some things can
be carried too far. The Humane So-
ciety ought to do something about
it
The `lady" is a mechanical de-
vice, illustrating the old, hard way
of washing.
FORMER RESIDENT DIES
Clinton friends were shocked to
learn of the sudden death of Mrs.
Walter Johnston, of Bayfield, which
occurred at herhome Thursday night
last. Mrs. Johnston, who was prior
to hermarriage in 1925, Miss Edith
May Jones, being d 'daughter of the
late Robert Jones and Mrs. Jones of
Clinton, was employed on the staff
cf the Clinton Telephone exchange,
and had many friends here.
Mrs. Johnston -has been suffering
from quinsey for several days but
was feeling better and it was hoped
she would soon be up and around a-
gain. But death came very suddehly
and quietly,
Her husband and ane little son,
aged seven, survive.
CELEBRATE ANNIVERSARY
Mr. and Mrs. Fred •Cook of Tuck-
ersmith spent Tuesday with the for-
ma's :nether, Mrs. Charles Cook,
Rattenbury street. Of course that is
nothing new, as they visit their moth-
er often, but this" was a special oe-
casipn, as it teas in celebration of the
anniversary of theirwedding day, the
twenty-sixth. It was alio the anni-
versary of the wedding day of Mrs. v
Cook and her late husband, who were
married fifty-seven years ago. It
seemed to be a favorite date for
marriages in that family, as it was
also the anniversary of the wedding
of Mrs. Cook's daughter. Well, the
20111 is really the date of Mr. and
Mrs. Fred Cook's anniversary, but as
they all come so near togetherthey
ave always celebrated them on the
same elate. The state of the roads
at the present time prevented a large'
eerily gathering. Miss Irene Woods
of Goder'ich township was also a
guest. Mr. W. Coote, who was unable
to come down Tuesday, spent yester-
day with his mother.

BRUCEFIELD
The regular meeting of the Young
Peoples' Society of Brucefield' United
Church h h was held on Monday evening,
Nov. 20th, with a fair attendance.
Mr. Wm. Pepper was in the chair, and
the meeting was opened • by a hymn
followed by ',prayer by Rev.' Mr.
Bremner, followed by another hymn.
The topic, "Poverty or Wealth" was
taken by Mi...Fred Boyce, who gave
ode of the finest topics heard' at our
meetings this season, :He went into
•full details ,and gave examples from
Paul's" character. He also went on-
to say that money used in the proper
Way was a good thing, and 'pointed
out a man's character, but money us-
ed for purposess other
than doing good, has a curse. In
many big society homes money reigns
supreme, but as regards happiness
and goodwill, one will, find very little.
He gave several short stories, many
of which pointed true facts which
happen in everyday life. The One
thing Fred tried to make clear was
that the love of money was against
'the teachings of the bible A dis
cussion fpllowed but owing to the.
topic being so well handled nobody
could' think of- anything to discuss.
Fred was given good attention by all
preeent, and I am sure everybody
appreciated such a topic. The pre-
sident, Mr, Ed. McLeod, took the
chair for the business. It was mov-
ed and seconded that the Y. P. S. put',
on' a playas their share of the Christ-
mas entertainment, The Rev. Mr.
Bremner, Miss Eva Stackhouse, Mr.
Ed. McLeod, were chosen as a con,
mittee to select a play' and the char-
acters to take part in it,
The Rev. Mr. Brenner then read
aloud a letter„ asking all officers of,
the society to attend the Y. P. S.
Rally in Exeter on Decembter 1st. As
so many were cloubtfdl of going, the
matter was not settled, but Bruce -
field will be well represented when,
the time comes round. A. short while
back two members, Miss Eva Stack-
house, and Mr. Fred Boyce, were
appointed captains for a membership
drive, and Monday everybody pre-
sent as asked to sign his or her
name to the membership roll.
The meeting closed' by singing a
hymn after which all joined in the
benediction.
Mr. Jessie Freeman and Mr. James
McCully visited at the hon're of Mrs.
J. Addison in Clinton.

AUBURN
On Sunday afternoon the death
occurred of Miss Annie Elizabeth
Sturdy, an invalid for many years.
Miss Sturdy, daughter of the late
John Sturdy and Jane McBrien, was
born 69 years ago in E. Wawanosh
on the homestead one half mile east
of here where she passed all of her
life with the exception of five years
of her girlhood spent in Auburn dur-
ing her father's absence in the vicin-
ity of the Lakeof the Woods and
Fort Gerrie in the early pioneer days
of the 1Vest.
Until fifteen years ago, when up-
set from a buggy, the deceased al-
ways enjoyed excellent health and
her energy and cheerful disposition
macre her a leader in community ser-
vice and church work. However, the
painful el'focts following the accident
gradually caused her to lose strength
until she became quite helpless. In
this situation she showed wonderful
fortitude and courage and was aided
by the lovnig attention of her bro-
ther, Henry, with whom she lived
and who predeceased her early last
May.
During the last three years of
her ,illness she hack a most kind and
capable attendant in Mn. Marda
Seery of Strathr'oy. Miss' Sturtdy
took a special interest in- St. Mark's
Anglican church where she was or-
gatsist for many years.
The largely attended funeral ser-
vices held here Tuesday afterttoen
were conducted by the rector, Rev.
L. V, Pocock. The pallbearers were:
George Beadle, Eph. Ball, George
Hamilton, 0. E. Breath, Ezekiel Phil-
lips, John Wilson. Among the beau.
fife] floral tributes was ono from
the congregation of St. Mark's Angli-
can church., Interment was made in
the family plot, Ball's cemetery.
The deceased is survived by one
brother, -George L. of Auburn, and
three nephews, Harry 'Sturdy, Au-
burn; Frank Sturdy, Wingham, and
John Sturdy, Windsor,

. EVENINGS AT HOME
I had forgotten that you could croch-

Or liked to hear a story read aloud,
So long it seems we've aiways gone
away
To mingle somewhere with a bah-
bling crowd,
When first 'we married and we used
to sent
That upper flat on Fourteenth
Avenue,
We often sat together, quite eon -
tent;
The supper dishes oft I dried for
you.
Do you remember how I tinkered
then
With saw and hammer over some
pantry shelf
To save the cost of hiring expert men
And said: "My dear, I'll, do that
woi'lk myself."
The meas tonight was good! I've al-
ways said
And now repeat it, old and ever
true,
Although on this world's dainties I
have fed,
No one can make an apple pie like

We've learned this lesson to our
souls' delight;
For happiness we have no need to

There are some joys the changing

And we can find contentment here
