Men's Dies Suddenly The sudden death of Francis George Farquhar came as a great shock to relatives and friends in this district on Wednesday. .Although stricken with several heart attacks lately the deceased went about his duties in his tisual way, Having com- plained of illness that morning he did not open his shop until almost noon but worked as usual then. About 2 p.m. when he failed to re- turn hone for lunch his wife went to the barber shop to see why the delay and found him seated on the back doorstep dead. Dr. Steer was called and stated death was due to a severe heart attack sometime previous. He was in his 59th year and had bar- bered here for over thirty years, being in partnership with the late Fred Manns a number of years. A son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Thos. Farquhar of Hensall, the deceased was well known to a large circle of friends, and will be much missed in the surrounding community. Surviv- ing is his widow, formerly Agnes Cochrane, three sons, Maurice and John of Hensall, and Gerald, Ann Arbor, Mich. A brother Charles Far- quhar, Kippen, and two sisters, Miss Sophie Farquhar and (Maude) Mrs. Lambert, Hamilton. A private funer- al service was held from the hone on Friday at 2 p.nr, conducted by Rev, Joseph Taylor of Carmel Pres- byterian Church. The floral tributes were numerous and most beautiful, showing the high esteem with which the deceased was held. The pallbear- ers were Messrs George Hess, Joe Flynn„ F. W. Smallecombe, A.

T S OF FOOD AREGOINGTWASTE IN TNIS DISTRICT UNLESS YOU ACT NOWT Seaforth! It's up to 110U! 1 This community is faced with the immediate task of organizing to SAVE FOOD materials urgently needed by our invading Armed Forces. There is not available at this moment one half the farm " help required to save the abundant food crops ready for harvest on farms in this community. Yet these crops must be saved to feed our invading armed forces—to whom food is as vitally important as ammunition. They cart win if they don't eat. The man power needed to save this food can be provided ONLY in one way; and that way is by the citizens of this community organizing to provide help for its fanners; organizing the "spare hours" of its men in the cause of Saving Food for Victory. The organization has two parts: 1. Organizing a Farm Commando Brigade, with office and tele- phone, where information: can be given and the enlistments . of loyal citizens .received and through which men may be placed on farms requiring help most urgently. 2. Enlisting every available man in the community who will pledge his evenings, week -ends, holidays, half -days,— every spare hour—during this critical harvesting period. ' , The Department of Agriculture of the Ontario Government will provide organizers and will co-operate and assist at every point in the formation and operation of the Farm Commandos. The need is Urgent!' It Requires Immediate Action! Unless such help is provided thousands of bushels of vitally -needed grain will go to waste in the fields in this district. 1^ li Council You can lend, effectively, the weight of your official influence by appeals to your townsmen; by proclaiming a "Help the Farmer" holiday when the situa- tion demands; by permitting municipality vehicles to transport commandos to and from farms; by giving leadership in organ- ization work. Employers You can -give vital assistance by releasing a shift, or your entire staff, for a day or more; by impressing the urgency of their going to the farms for the period of release. Merchants You can organize to go in a body with your staffs on the weekly ' half•holiday, evenings and week -ends; or you could close your stores for an entire day once a week to assist during this critical period. Clergymen You can impress the need on congregations; call organization • meetings of your men and boys; assist ser- vice clubs and other bodies to organize enlistments. Mechanics Also artisans, labour - ors, clerks, salesmen, students. You can provide the greatest service because you constitute the largest body of citizens, Assist in organization wherever you can, but par- ticularly in pledging your spare hours to help on the farms. Service Clubs You can add to your laurels of social service by enrolling members for this most constructive task; by forming committees to work in co-operation with commando headquarters on many phases of Oho work, , HERE'S WHAT TO DO Officials of the Municipal Council, Executives of Board of Trade, Merchants' Association and Service Clubs should arrange for an organization meeting as soon as possible. Ask the Agricultural Representative of the district to be present. He will. be glad to assist and co-operate in every way. Or write direct to Ontario Farm Service, Parliament Buildings, Toronto, for information and literature. Let the farmers know what you are doing, enlist their aid in helping you to help them.
