OBITUARY
MRS. GEORGE" R. TYNER
The funeral of Rebecca Lovett,
widow of George R. Tyner, who- died
on Saturday at the home of her son,
Charles Tyner of Lindsay, was held
in St. Paul's Church on Monday af-
ternoon, Rev. A. IL O'Neil conducting
the service.
Mrs, Tyner, who was in her 86th
year, was well known in this district,
She was the last surviving daughter
of the family of Charles Lovett and
Martha Riley, and was born on the
Base Line. Receiving her education
in the public school of that section
she later attended Clinton High
School, obtained a teacher's oertifi-
date at Godericlt Model School and
then taught school at Bayfield, Blyth
and in other centres. In Janua?y
1879 slie was married to George
Tyner and they farmed until Mr.
Tyner died sixteen years ago. For
the past three years Mrs, Tyner had
lived with her son at Lindsay. She
had been in poor health for the past
year.
Besides her son she is survived by i
one daughter, Mrs. Charles Clifton, 1
13rucefield, and five grandchildren. A ]
brother, Noble Lovett, of town, is
uory the only surviving member of
the family of twelve. o
Those who bore Mrs. Tyner to her t
resting place in Clinton cemetery
were Thomas Mason, William. Mair,
Robort Smith, Ezra Ellis, William g
Merrill and Fred Burdge. s
CORNISH—WAUGH
was extended to the Non -Permanent
Active Militia through the adoption
of a scheme announced by the De-
partment of National Defence. Under
the plan units of the militia will be
grouped into territorial regiments and
will contribute a proportional share
of the reinforcements required for
the battalions of the regiment serv-
ing overseas. All arms and services
are included within the scope of this
new policy. The infantry will be
specially affected.
The Canadian Dental Corps, which,
in the present war, is a new, separate
and independent unit, will be entitled
to use, in its own right like the Can-
adian Medical Corps, the Geneva
Crass in all circumstances.
Instructions wore issued by the De-
partment of National Defence to the
effect that only Personnel of the C.
A, S. F. serving -overseas are entitled
to wear the "Canada" arm badge.
This badge will not be worts by the
personnel of luny tint in Canada un-
til immediately prior to proceeding
overseas.
Rapid progress in the construction
of ' school buildings and hangars in
many limits of Canada continued to
reflect geat activity in connection
with the British Commonwealth Air
Training Plan. Provision has been
made for the creation o£ Four Train-
ng Coinmands under the plan. This
io\v
organization supersedes the orig-
nal plan for six Commands. Training
Commands will be located in Toronto,
Winnipeg, Montreal acid Regina. Each
f these Commands, will be self-con-
ained for maintenance and supply,
with repair equipment depots, to
tvhieh will be attached a Senior En-
ineor and a Supply Officer with
taff. Under this new "Four Com-
a
nc]" grouping the same equitable
stribution of schools and aerodromes

Vesteem Canada, :end within the
Mous provinces.
In the future the •sohool now flinc-
hing ander the title of "Flying Lit-
tleton School" at the R. C. A. F.
talon, Trenton, Out., will. become
"Central Flying School" under

CERTIFIED SEED
MAKE plans early this yearto harvest a bumper crop of smooth,
clean, high-quality potatoes. Good seed is the first require-
ment for an excellent crop ... because only good seed will grow
vigorous plants, plants that can withstand most of the serious
diseases common to potatoes.
Canadian Certified Seed Potatoes are good seed potatoes. By
planting them, many of the losses due to disease will be avoided ...
higher -quality, cleaner, smoother, more uniform potatoes than.
those grown from ordinary seed stock will be produced.
So, this season, harvest finer potatoes—and more of thein. Plant Can.
adian Certified Seed. Grow potatoes that will grade Canada No. 1.
