COMMUNICATION
Dear Mr. Editor:
In reference to a notice in your
last issue concerning Mr. Coldwell,
I wish to point out.a few inaccura-
cies. Mr. Coldwell is not, and has
never been president of. the National
Executive of the C.C.F. The position
is held by Economics Professor
Frank Scott of McGill University.
Mr. Coldwell is merely an elected
member of parliament, chosen house
leader and national leader by the
C.C.F. members.
Mr. Coldwell's son, to whom mis-
leading reference was made, was an
active member of the R.C.A.F. f,r
five years during the last war.
Sincerely, Wm. D. Landsborotig,h

MADELINE WILSON AND
• GORDON WILSON WIN
Mr. E. L. Fox, principal- of the
Seaforth High School, announced
this week the winners of the Lions
club awards. Tho boy's prize was
won by Gordon Wilson,son of Mr.
and Mrs. D. EL Wilson of town: The
girl's prize was won by Madeline
Wilson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Lorne Wilson, Brucefieid.
In an attempt to promote citizen-
ship among the youth of the Sea -
forth High School, the. Lions Club
through its Education Committee
has inaugurated two $25.00 awards.
These prizes were to be given to the
boy and girl who co-operated best
in the promoting of school activities,
school spirit, showed the best quali-
ties of leadership and yet put forth
a good academic effort. 40% of the
points considered were based on the
academic work which, did not neces-
sarily mean marks attained but
rather dealt with the candidate's
contribution to class discussion,
general co-operation, and effort put
forth.
Gordon Wilson, as President of
the Students' Council, gave the stu-
dent body a type of leadership which
is seldom found in ` secondary
schools. He was equally at ease both
on the platform and in committee
meetings. He proved• to be a splend-
id organizer which resulted in many
varied and successful activities
throughout the year.
Madeline Wilson, was equally ef-
fective among the Fir's of the
school. Other than acting as Treas-
urer of the Student's Council, most
of Madeline's work was done as
chairman of numerous committees.
Besides this, she ranked second in
her class scholastically.

Mrs. J. A. Munn, of Seaforth, has

WALTER DAVIDSON DIES
, AFTER FALL FROM MOWER
Mr. Walter Davidson passed
away about 3.30 Wednesday after-
noon at London. Funeral an.
rangements have not been corn-
pleted,
His wife had accompanied her
`sister Mrs. W. Farquharson, to
the West last week by motor for
a visit. They are returning im-
mediately for the funeral.
On Tuesday afternoon Mr. Walter
Davidson, well known Walton farmer, Remembrance
received serious head injuries when
he fell from a mower. He is in Vic-
toiia Hospital, London, and was do-
ing as well as could be expected at
9 o'clock Wednesday morning, follow-
ing an operation the previous even-
ing. He was still unconscious.
Mr. Davidson was driving the
mower along the road between the
farm of Mr. Harvey Craig, by whom
he' was employed, and the other
Craig Yarm about three quarters of a
mile away, when the accident
occurred.
First word that something was,
wrong came from Walton where the
team showed up without their driver.
Upon receiving a phone call from
Walton, Mr. and Mrs, Craig drove
along the road, and on coming over
the hill could see Mr. Davidson's feet
at the side of the road.
He was evidently trying to get to
his feet although in a dazed condi
tion. Asked what happened he said
he didn't know. illl', Davidson has
not been in the best of health anti it
is believed he may have. taken a
weak spell and fell off the mower and
the horses then ran into the village.
Noone saw the accident.
Mr. Davidson bad sold his farm,
14th -concession, McKillop, to Mr.
Craig this spring but continued to
live on the farm. He was going to
this farm to cut hay when the accid-
ent occurred,
The injured man was given immed-
iate treatment by a Brussels doctor
and then taken to Scott Memorial
Hospital, and later reproved by am-
bulance to Victoria Hospital, London.

lived there. He was 0 member of
