"There is no question bestflavored e . produce h that we cot an Pc o u apple right liere.in Ontario of any country in the world," said M'r. Cantelon, "but in British Columbia and our orchards the h have fresh, young Y up to the present they have not been troubled with any parasites in their orchardsso they can turn out very nice looking fruit. The diseases which have troubled the orchardists here, however, are -beginning to ap- pear in British Columbia, they have their fight ahead of them. He has shipped but twelve car loads so far this year. • But Mr. Cantelon's hog shipments have not been falling off at all,`how- ever, he having shipped during the past, ten months 102 cars of hogs, comprising 6613 animals, and in ad- dition he has shipped 400 lambs and 200 calves.. ,And avery riot' rceable thing aboutlfr. Cantelon's shipments of hogs is that they always grade ac- cording to the standard. He has the. distinction of being . amongst the two or three buyers - in Ontario whose grading stands the test in the big markets. One• only has to watch the, market reports,.jio see this. So. it 'will be seen .that while Mr. Cantelon will in a few days celebrate" his eightieth birthday; while he has lived tenyears past the allotted span' of life, he has not reached the chim- ney -corner stage by any means, but is ad active and as busy as ever he was. • ' Mr. Cantelon was bora in Goderich township, being a son of the late David Caatelon,..a pioneer of that township, • his father having helped to chop out the Huron road between Clinton and Goderich and between here and Seaforth,in the early days. He lived at-homeuntil he was about twenty years of age• He then work- ed for a time at Stapleton and later for a few years with the late J..Fair on his farm and in the saw mill:, He then 'went into the grocery business for himself, a: business he conducted for about three years, selling out to his -brothers, who continued the bush - tress, under the firml name of Cante lon'Bros. until a few years ago. He then went into thebuying of apples and other produce and lates hogs and has during the past forty-five" or -fif- ty years paid out to the farmers ef• the county, millionsof dollars. ` Since December lst, 1892 "when ho began ire doing' business with McTa ggart's bank, his business amounted to be- tween five and six millions:. • Mr. Cantelon, •'. "Dave,"': as his friends familiarly, call hitn, has al- ways taken a keen interest in mum- cipal affairs. Years ago'he was reeye for figs years and eounty� com-: •missloner six 'years. He was war- den of 'the county in 1914, He served as councillor at different tunes and. in 1923.was mayor of the town. In politics he is a staunch conservative and has always been counted` as one of the party stalwarts .IIe enjoys the excitement of a political', election and, while he is always happy when his own side wins, ho takes a defeat with -excellent grace. He is an Or- angeman and is very loyal to British connection. IIis three sons all serv- ed as volunteers,' the elder having served• in the South '.African war, the other two in the Great War. 'P'rivate 13 A. Cantelon sleeps in a grave in France• having been awarded a ,post humans decoration for conspicuous bravery, while Lieut. Ray Cantelon died after his return from overseas. The loss of" these .two sons was a very heavy blow to him. Mr. Cantelon has made two business trips to the Old Land and tools oc- easion to visit the home of ,his an- cesters ni Ireland on one occasion, IIe has made thirty-five: trips to the west. "I've paid out a lot°:of my money to the railways," was his remark y pre these many journeyings. To the suggestion that a -man of eighty ought to give up regular work Mira Cantelon said, "Oh, I'll never give up work while I am able to buy a hog. It's time enough to quit work when you are not able to do any more." The chief -business-`of the meeting f addition- al to o rEm the tendere or ition- d l al ` insurance on the town hall and contents, which bad been asked for. "Tenders were received from Messrs. Higgins, Wiseman, , Chow en RcIrke, Rance, Macpherson and Corless. On motion' of Councillors Elliott and Paisley the tender of D. L. Macpber son was accepted; Councillor Cooper, seconded by Councillor Thompson, moved that an effort be made to secure a better rate on the remainder of the insurance. REV, FR, GAFFNEY LEAVING Rev.

Duringhis residence in Clinton Rev. Father Gaffney has made many friends and his removal from town is regretted. He regrets• moving, too, as, to quote himself, be "has been as happy' as a man could be;' during' his residence here. "I fuel greatly endebted to the people cif Clinton and vicinity,' said Father Gaffney, when discussing his impending removal, "for the many kindnesses shown me during my stay in Clinton." Father Gaffney is being sent to his home Parish; where he was born and brought up, which makes it appear that his bishop has perfect confidence - in him. Sunday will be his last in this parish.
