l'1113 S., OCT.. 2g, 1937.:.
Hullett Township Adopted
By II'oinesteaders From
West
When Earl R. Doucette of ,Wincl-
horst, Saskatchewan. came to Huron
County a iuonth ago with a ear load
of stook for James Medd, Hullett
township, he decided, that this was the,
place for him. Carrying out that re-
solution Mr. Doucette and his .fiance;
Miss Lola 0. Mason of Jamestown,
Sask., and Arthur Mclnnis"'a partner,
arrived at Clutton station by C.N.R.
freight train, at one o'clock Monday.
Miss Mason, who, ,but for the hard
times prevailing during the past few
years in Saskatchewan, would now
have been'Mrs Doucette, is the.second
woman on record to have brought'a�
load of stock from
tIf West. For or one
week following the loading of four
ears at Windthor:st, Miss Mason's
home was one end of 0 C.N.R. box car,
the remainder of the space being ta-
ken up with cattle and turkeys and
household goods.
Crowded 'Quarters
An accomplished` horsewoman, Miss.
Mason knows her cattle and turkeys
too and knows how to look after them.
Mr. Medd, who had been in the section,
returned with the party. Miss Mason's
ear, which in aciclitidn to her own
sleeping accommodation, was furnish -
•ed with table, chairs and oil stove,
provided meals for the party on the
long trip at lunch time, and in spite,
of the close proximity of the stock
the occasions were jolly ones. A mas-
cot, a pretty blue -and white hotting
pigeon, attached itself to.:the car at
Ilarltepayne, flying about outside
when stops were made and returning
to the car when /again in notion. As
though having learned all about the
matter it left them during the short
lay over at Toronto and no doubt re-
turned home.
1 me.
The cars, four in number, were bil-
led through to Londesborot' and were
forwarded" to that point Monday even-
ing. The stock consisted of 22 head
of horses, 18 cattle and 50 turkeys of
the fine pure strain 'bronze variety.
Mr. Doucette and Miss Mason will be
married very soon and will settle tem-
porarily on one of Mr. Medd's Hul-
lett farms. There was no money in
Saskatchewan explained Mr. Doucette
and marriage licenses out there cost
$10.00.
Mr. Medd said that several other
parties left the same locality about
the same time. Mr. Doucette, a na-
tive of New 73runswick, hacl lived for
28 years in Saskatchewan. Mr. Mc-
Innis was there 18 years having gone
out from Ontario and Miss Mason,
whose parents went from Ontario was
born there.
Drought Conditions Bad
Mr, Doucette tells harrowing tales
of conditions in Saskatchewan. The
dust storms, piling up drifts that cov-
er the fences, shut out visability be-
yond a few yards, sift into the houses,
into the food, inside the clothing and
the intolerable heat, often over the
hundred degree mark, and worst of
all the abominable grasshopper pest.
.He said grasshoppers come in swarths
and darken the sun. To drive a car
against a flight of the pests is
int
-
passible. They Smash lagahlst the

party seemed very harpy to be away

sky when he was twelve miles south
of it. By the time he reached the
place the roof had fallen in and there
was no one there. He wakened the
owner ^ but it was too late to rescue
anything. It was then after one
o'clock in the morning and many of
the near neighbors knew nothing a-
bout it until next day. Besides im-
plements he lost all his hay and fifty
?teres of crop, two horses, five end's
and poultry. It was evident that the
fire commenced in the, upper Hart of.

Lord Tweedsmuir has said that "leis-

Little and see much; some talk much

In a quiet ceremony at the United
Church` manse, Londesboro, on Sat-
urday morning, Maty Elizabeth (Bes-
sie) Crawford, daughter of the late
Mr. and Mrs Charles Crawford of
Londesbora, became the bride of Per-
cy Russel McBride, eldest son of Mr.
and Mrs. Jarvis McBride of Carlow.
Rev. W. A. Gardiner officiated. The
bride was gowned in English net ov-
er blue taffeta and was attended by
Miss Dorothy Watson of Carlow, who
wore a costume of wine satin, Har-
vey Errington of Carlow attended the
bridegroom.
Following the ceremony a wedding
dinner was served to immediate Tela-

would have to raise little to meet the
request.
Teachers, he predicted, would soon
be able to pick their schools for there
are only 1,000 attending Ontario Nor-
mal Schools compared with 2,600 last
year, Moreover many have left the
profession, never to return, to enter
ether ,occupations, while there was a
surplus.
In 1936 West Huron teachers pas-
sed 90.4 per cent. of their entrance
an all-time high. This year the per-
centage was 88.3. Few criticisms, the
inspector said, had been received on
the practice of promoting pupils on
the year's work.
The teachers divided into, grade
meetings to discuss the work and
problems of their particular classes
and so successful was the idea tha
was planned to repeat it next year
