Exeter Doctor Marks
99th Birthday —
Canada's oldest practising physi-
clan, Dr. J. W. Broivning, celebrated
his 99th birthday at Exeter, on Satur-
day, Nova 21st. He has practised there
for 74 years. Dr. Browning is the
country's oldest physician both tin
years and practice. For the past few
years he has conducted a consulting
practice only. His son, Joseph W.
Browning, who operates a drug store,
wheels Dr. Browning down to his
office behind the drug store - each
day. Another son, Dr. J, 11. Brown-
ing, is a physician in London. Born
in Sonlarsetshire, England, he came
to Canada as a boy. At the age of 14
he was a self-taught telegraph opera-
tor, one of the pioneers in the busi-
ness. When he reached the age of
17 his health was delicate and fears
were expressed that he would not
live long. Three days after the Con-
federation of the Canadian provinces
into a Dominion, Dr, Browning began
the practice of medicine in Stephen
township. The next year he came to
Exeter and has been there ever

Little Election Activity —
There is very little election acttvitY
in IIurou County municipalities. At
last week's county council meeting
none of the 29 reeves and deputy
reeves announced his retirement and
members were urging one another to
again stand for office so that there
would be few changes in county
council, thus assuring a continuity at
policy, particularly with respect to
the war. So far Reeves Raymond, of
East Wawanosh, and Alex IYIcDonall,
of Ashfield, have announced them-
selves as candidates for the 1943
wardenship. In Colborne Township it
,looks like a three -cornered fight with
the present reeve, William Thom, be-
ing opposed by Aelx Watson and
Jan, ea Feagan, two of his council. An
nnua,iel situation has cropped up fu

moved two of the four councilors
from town and a bare quorum has
