STANLEY TOWNSHIP BOYS DISPUTE CLAIM The claim of concession 9, Kincar- dine township that on it in. less than two miles reside 15 girls under 7 con- stitute a record is disputed by north line residents. In less than a mile on that road, in the vicinity of the school I are, to use the words of residents, "7 big, bright, husky boys under the age of 4." It is pointed out that "if all these boys travel to the ninth to 'court all the beauties there, they will be quite popular, but 50 per cent of the girls might be left in the lurch." —Kincardine News. HOGS CAN BE STUBBORN LOGAN FARMER DISCOVERS Accidents happen In peculiar ways. For instance when Edwin Mogk, Logan, was in the act of loading a hog on his farm, the animal took a notion to return to the stall. In an effort to stop him Mr. Mogk stuck his foot out, the hog crashing against it with such force that the large bone in his foot was splintered. He was taken to Stratford Hospital for X-ray and a cast was required which has now been removed. He suffe'r'ed in- tense pain as a result of the injury. -Mitchell Advocate.

GOING TO BE BEVY OF BEAUTIES There's s going• to be a bevy of beau- tiful young ladies on concession 9, Kincardine township, 0 n farms which cover less than two miles on the concession are 15 girls, all under the age of 7 years. Residents of the concession believe that this consti- tutes an unique record and are proud not only of it but the girls themselves, for they are the only children in this area under the age of 7 years. What is at least a most unusual oc- currence, if not a record for the dis- trict, was established this week, with the death of a 30 -year-old pony own- ed by Dr. J. G. Grieve, well known Seaforth veterinary surgeon. For many years the pony, which was raised by Dr. Grieve, was a fain- iliar sight on Seaforth and district 93 YEARS OLD ;STILL FARMS At 93 years of age; Hector MacKay of Wingham, who provides for his household by working a farm by his own labor, celebrated the 61st 'anni- versary of his marriage to Katherine : Macdonald. Mr. McKay attracted the attention lof the community as far back as 1886 when, on a hot day in. July, he startled the housewives with the declaration • that he was going to make butter :for a job. This. was trespassing on :the monopoly of the housewives, but they gave hien some cream "one trial." Ever since that day until 1928, when lie retired, he collected .cream on a :canopy covered tank wagon and made butter, :which" he sold in the market' of nearby towns. Of those 42 years, 37 found him' still driving the same wagon. , His retirement at the age of 83 was only from btrtter-rnaldng.He started to work a farm on the road from Whitechurch to Wingham, working it alone, and has been at it to this day. Late last fall, he became, il'1 for the first time in his life. Surgeons hest: tated to perform a dangerous opera- tion, but Mrs. MacKay was. confident that he would recover and urged them. to, proceed. They operated. In .a short while he was up splitting next winter's, wood. Mr. and Mrs. MacKay have a fam- ily of 11, all living, but scattered to various parts of the globe. They were re -united for the first time irk 25 years last year. .
