Mr. McKenzie had returned from Toronto for this occasion, bar• tug spent the winter there with his daughter. This honored gentleman is enjoying fairly good health, although greatly handicapped by impaired haring. He spends a great deal of his time reading and can converse in• telligently on all subjects of the prey gilt and part days. in his day, Mr. McKenzie was re- nowned for his skill in malting collars for horses by hand. From his shop at Kippeu he supplied fifteen Ontario firms, extending as far east as Bow- ntanville. and south to Chatham. He claimed that a collar well made by hand was always better than one made by machine. The celebration last week at Au- burn was for many years a joint af• fair, that of the birthdays of the late Robert 11IeGee and McKenzie, and is looked forward to with great interest by many of the older residents of the Auburn district. The table setting and serving of this banquet, is entirely carried on by the menfolk, and the birthday cake has always been made and donated by Mrs. Maitland Allen. and adorns the centre of the table. which makes a pretty decoration. - Following the sumptuous repast Dr. B.

Cooney Welland Does Well According to Baz O'Meara of the -Montreal Star, Cooney Weiland, as couch of the Boston Bruins., is typical of tate new models in coaches --tile tool, unruffled. unobtrusive kind that doesil't go galloping across the ice to protestpenalties, and doesn't .threaten to pop a blond vessel every time a referee calls an offside, A decade hence. there'll he sighs for the good old days of guys like Adams, Ross and Dutton. They'll complain, at that future elate that 'coaches of to -day lack color,' People are funny that tray. The years add glamour. Weiland always had high rating with Ross, O'Meara says, even when the dour Bruin executive exiled. the Egmond- ville goy to Detroit, as a means of Punishing Cooney for having a mind of his own. It wasn't that Ross didn't consider Weiland the Wily good enough for his club; it was just that the quick sale method was his way of ending a • dispute with a player. Eventually Ross showed what he real- ly thought of Weiland by recapturing him for Boston and grooming him for the responsibilities of coach. Around the Calder circuit, the opinion seems to be that Ross, as usual, was a good picker when he named the Sea: forth Alger boy of shinny as his right hand man. Ross must think so him - self—for Weiland is the voice of auth- ority' nolo on the Boston bench.

Passes At Goderich— Arthur Jeffrey, former employee of the Western Canada Flour Mills at Goderieh, died suddenly on Saturday following a heart attack at the Monte of a neighbor in his Both year, Mr. Jeffrey was a member of a well known French settlement family in Stanley township, where he was born. He had lived in Goderich for the past thirty years and worked as a cooper in the Western Canada Flour Mills until his retirement about seven years ago. He was unmarried. He is surviv- ed by the following brothers and sis- ters: Mrs. R. Deunome, Stnaley; Mrs. Edward Brisson, Hay; Mrs. Joseph Dueharnte, Stanley; Frank Jeffrey, Goderich; Peter ' Jeffrey, Grand Forks, North Dakota; Joint Jeffrey, Hay; Mrs. E. Dueharme, FIay; George Jeffrey-, Stanley, and Mrs. Gilbert Plante, Goderich. The funeral was held on Tuesday morning from St. Peter's R. C. Church at Drysdale, where interment took place. Urges Hospital Speciallzation— A-plan whereby specialization would be practised in each of Huron Coun- ty's- fotohospitals --- Goderich, Clin- ton, Seafo't.14 and Winghtun—so as 10 bring greater efficiency and ecnnonl3 inthetreatment Etlld care of the sick. was advocated by Dr. B. T. McOOltie. deputy minister of health, 111 a recent address at Goderich. if adopted, the plan would have far reaching signifi- cance hi the future development 00 the county's four hospitals. For in- stance: After stating every 001114h bed "I'LL GIVE YOUR FAMILY TASTIER, SURE it�� I� YIGESTIBLE BREAD" in Huron's four hospitals was occup- ied by a chronically 111, aged person, Mr. 111501110 proposed that this type of patient be confined solely to one of the four hospitals, Such a move would greatly improve general condi- tions under which the patient was be- ing cared for and would lessen the cost of maintenance. Likewise, such would be the case with expensive x-ray and surgical equipment, facilities for fractural treatment, etc, For this type of service the ectuipment also could be maintained at one hospital, Sts cost being shared by all four Insti- tutions, With the advance of medical and surgical science small hospitals could no longer keep pace with in- creasing costs. Again, one hospital would be set aside for diagnostic pur- poses. With modern means of trans- portation it was much cheaper to bring the patient to the equipment than to take the equipmeu o the pat- ient.
