King Edward VIII, than whom England never had 'a more popular ' prince or king, came to the throne less than a year ago on the death of his revered father, King George V, and was hailed with peculiar joy and expectation. During the quarter cen- .tury reign of his father the Prince ••• of Wales had served well the empire over which his fatherreigned and for the ruling of which he had all his life been in training. He had travelled all over the world and had mase` friends. I 'wherever he went. He had =mixed -with all classes and creeds. He seem- ed to have a particular interest in - any class which looked as if it were - not getting a fair deal, and for this • reason he had endeared himself to the common people. We hoped much from his reign. In one thing' he had disappointed 1 .' his friends and his loyal subjects, a- like. He had passed his fortieth year without choosing .a wife ' and setting up 'a family, although his three ...younger brothers had all done so. And then he did make a choice, made - choice of a woman who was not free `to marry him and who because of the fact that she had been divorced from ';two husbands, was not acceptable as queen of the world's greatest empire. During all the negotiations back and 'forth between • the king and his min- isters not one word was said in dis- paragemeht-of the lady of the King's choice. The only slight put upon her was by the King himself, when he asked that legislation be passed mak- ing it possible for -him to marry her, but giving hen a status' lower than the rank of queen. This his tninis- ters refused to do. There was then, two courses for the King to take, either give up the idea of marriagewith this woman or give up his throne, he chose the latter, and -• with matchless dignity he stepped from his place on the throne of Great Bri- tain and Ireland and the Dominions Beyond the Seas and Emperor of In- , dia, and a few hours later swore al- legiance, to his brother as his law- ful' King. In the years to come we may be ,, able to judge more accurately the 'meaning behind this momentous de- cision. Wa`s this love of Edward's a master passion against which he had n o power to resist, or ' was he determined to have his own iaay in 'spite of parliament or con- --sti(ution, or was it that he was tired of thethrone, as Bernard Shaw says, and wAa''glad to get quit of it? Time, perhaps, will show. "allot, at any rate one cannot but feel a thrill of pride that all this ••gould happen in so calm and dignified a' manner, without heat, without re- • crimination, with such. unanimity throughout the whole Empire. For • our own country bore her own digni- • lied share in the intense drama with credit to herself and to her ancestry. While we may have the greatest -. sympathy for Edward in the choice he was called upon to make, and for his immediate family, to all of whom the whole affair must have been very painful, and while we cannot but hope that he may find some sort of happi- -.ness in the future, we cannot help the feeling that the influence upon "him by the woman for whom he gave up so much was not of the best. It • Is the lightest, the most frivilous side of his character to which she appeals. How will'a union with her work out? We would fain hope not too disas- trously, for we cannot forget his ser- vice to the Empire in former and "happier times, and had we been at- - ranging Edward's life we•should have provided him with all thea happiness ttiiich could fallto the lot of a man. • May some good angel keep constant • watch over hind, no matter .where his feet may stray during 'the future years. He was too long our "Prince Charming" for us. to forget him, ev- - en though we give loyal allegiance to "'his -brother, oar present King. •GODERICH TOWNSHIP . Repert of S. ' S.

A royal salute of 21 artillery guns boomed out over Victoria Park, Lon- don, at 10.05 a.m. Saturday to mark the accession of a monarch to the British throne. ' The salute fired here was one of many such salutes fired all around the globe to' officially, proclaim that His Majesty King George VI had ascentlr ed to the throne and reigned as King.

The audi tors'•report showed there was 34,000. lbs. more cheese manufactured in 1.936 than in 1935.. Mi. Frank' Hearns, Provincial dairy instructor for Ontario, was, present, and gave a' very interesting address on the cheese industry, which looks_ more promising for the future than it has for the past ten years, compared to. any other line of the dairy industry. Mr. Hearne also spoke on the quality of Western Ontario cheese, being highest in the world. How Western Ontario cheese makers brought home 52 percent of the prize money from the biggest cheese exhibition ever held in Canada, held at Belleville, Dec. 2nd and 3rd, at which-280'boxes of cheese were exhibited from all over Ontario. It was brought out that Holmesville cheese factory, had the best year of many previous years, which now stands among the best factories of Western Ontario for management and firat grade cheese. Many patrons also spoke of the good satisfaction they received. Mr. M.- Elliott spoke on the quality of milk and how-to'obtain best qual- ity of milk in ,order that he " could keep up the quality of cheese to give the farmers best possible returns for their milk. The sante patrons went •back to office," which are< J. 'B. Stathwell, L. M. Jervis, J. C. Durst, C. W. Williams and F. Pickard (Directors), E. A. Yeo, Secretary, T. R. Jenkins; Audi- tor. The meeting adjourned '` by giving Mr. Hearns a hearty vote of thanks for one of the finest addresses on the dairy industry ever heard in Huron County. a, TALKING CLOCK -Before the World War any tele phone "central" would tell you the time of day. Now you dial a num ber—in New York it is Meridian 7 1212—and a trained voice says mesh anically "When you hear the signa the time will be twelve -twenty-five and a half." Both Paris and London do better than this. In London, where a Meeh anical system was recently introduc ed, telephone subscribers dial T -I -M and are told the time of day by a gramophone. The sound record is driven by a motor which is synehron ized with a pendulum clock corrected every hour from Greenwich. _:Differ- ent. announcements are required for every .ten seconds or 7,200 in all for twelve hours of civil ;time. This sounds much more formidable than it actually is. The, announce- ments are only combinations of smal- ler sets of phrases. Just before the signal the Londoner 'hears: (1) At .the third. stroke it will be (2) four (3) o'clock (4) precisely (b) peep -peep -peep. (1) At the third stroke it will be (2),five, (3) seventeen (4) and thirty seconds (5) peep -peep -peep. Announcements (1) and (5) are al -- ways the same. For announcement (2) the machine has to pick out a number from one to twelve; for (3) the word "o'clock" or a number from 1 to 59; and for announcement (3) the word "Precisely" or "and X sec- ends" when the value of X' is 10, 20, 0 40, or 50, The records are four glass disks in which sound tracks are recorded. A beam of light is mechanically brc-nght opposite the right track to nick out the right phrase. A photo- electric cell actuates the talking me- chanism. • A master clock fromt/ Greenwich controls the speaking apparatus much as any master clock controls a dis- ant subsidiary clock, Thus is cor- rectness assured within one-tenth of 1. second. London's talking • slosh can tell 200, ;subscribers at once just what time of. lay it is. But if some souse tries to isten to the signals continuously -he is cut -.off automatically, after three, minutes. Telephone engineers . think of everything. • , ; ,! Christmas.

' A service in the interests of the Bayfield Branch of the Upper Can- ada Bible Society was held in St. Andrew's United Church on Sunday evening.

Dr. Dougan of Clinton who took for the text of a most inspiring ad- dress, Romans 1:16., "For I ain not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ: for it is the- power of .;God unto salva- tion to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and -also to theGreek," in which he stressed . the . power of God in the world today. A. united choir 6f the three churches of the village led the praise and snag the anthem, "In .the Book" under the leadership of the. organist, Miss .Gladys M. -Gale. At the close , of the service the annual meeting was held at which Dr. Dougan also presided. Mrs. R.

Lad Accidentally Shold David Alexander Stewart, . 13, of Parkhill, died instantly when he re- ceived the full charge of a shotgun in his head while hunting rabbits Mon The gun was allegedly in the hands of Arthur Bannister, 23. The victim is said to have stood up suddenly in front of Bannister as, the latter, only a few feet away fired at a rabbit. Bannister•and J. R. and J. A. Stew- art, cousins of David, ran a mile to the Bannister farm house to call aid. When Dr. George Racey of Parkhill arrived on the spot, he found death had been instantaneous. Dr. Racey, after consulting with Chief Coroner' A. R. Routledge, M.D., of London, said there would be no inquest. Lit- tle more than a year ago Donald Stewart, cousin of Davida•met a sim- ilar death. According to the ,victim's compan- ions), a ompan-ions,-a rabbit appeared in direct line with David and Bannister. To per- mit Bannister a clear shot, David dropped down about fear feet ahead of the former. When Bannister missed, he fired the second- barrel just as David evi- dently unaware the rabbit had been missed, stood up in front of him. The victim is survived by his .par- ents, Mi. and Mrs. John Stewart, East Williams; •a brother, John, 16, and a Sister, Mary, 9.
