Mary Joann Tiffin
Sad, indeed, are the circumstances
surrounding the sudden and: entirely,
unexpected death of Mary Joann, on-
ly daughter of IYir, and Mrs. Elmyer
Tiffin of Kinloss, on Sunday after-
noon. The little ten -year-old `:joy of
the home was stricken with scarlet
fever a few days ago, but no concern
was felt at this as every precaution
bad been taken, and her condition was
satisfactory. Then acute appendicitis
developed; and after a consultation
by three _doctors, an, operation was
decided on, as a slight hope of saving
the girl's life. Whatever feeble hopes
thedoctors entertained were shatter-
ed, for the litle patient failed to • ral-
ly, and she quietly passed to that my-
sterious far -away land, from which
no traveller' ever returns. The sad
event has . evoked the deepest sym-
pathy from ` the district, who 'join in
the sorrow of the family over the
loss of so bright a child:
The funeral (private) took place on
Tuesday to Wingham Cemetery.
Allan B. Bainton
The late Allan B. Bainton was
born in the Township of Turnberry,
about one and a half miles north of
Wingham fifty-nine years ago. About
the year 1889 with his mother and.
other members of the family he mov-
ed to Wingham where he secured em-
ployment in the tannery and glove
factory of the late .Win. Chapman.
Some five years ..later, the family.
moved to Blyth, and in company with
his brother, Franklin, engaged in tan-
ning and glove manufacturing, under
the firm name of Bainton Bros, Com-
mencing business, on a small margin
of capital, the nevi firm were • just be
ginning to improve their financial
position when their entire manufac-
turing plant was swept by fire, with-
out the least insurance to assist in 1
-their loss. Undaunted and with abun-
dance of optimism the firm undertook
,and erected the spacious three-storey
brick structure that now forms part
of the present woolen mill building,
and again commenced the manufac-
ture of gloves,: handling hides and
'wool which was continued with var-
ied success until the outbreak of the
world war.
in an effort to relieve their liability
'they purchased the Wroxeter woolen
mill and commenced to irnanufacture
'their stock of, wool into blankets but
again misfortune . overtook 'then in
losing their plant and stock by fire,
They returned to Blyth and for a
!couple of years employed themselves.
in purchasing and selling hides and
wool. In 1927 they applied to the
Corporation of Blyth • for a: loan for.
The purpose .of erecting and operat-
ing a woolen mill here. The ratepay-
ers by 'a large majority acceded to
their request. and•the Mil/ was built
and equipped : with machinery. The
Arm suffered 'heavy losses through
:ollapsing of values at the close of,
'the war.
The late A. Balaton leaves to mourn
his loss, his 'wife,- one ,son., Franklin,
.and a daughter., Marjory. Besides' his
immediate :family, lie is survived by
'two brothers, John Bainton, of Great
Falls, Montana, . and Franklin, of
'.Blyth; three sisters, Mrs.' McKenzie,
(Galt, and Mrs. Leach and McLeod,
Detroit.

KINCARDINE FISHERMEN TAKEN INTO
THE NET- RIPLEY REDMEN DEFEATED
Wingham Senior Hockey Team
took a desperately 'contested game
from the Kincardine Fishermen at
the local Arena on Frida ' evenin b
y' g y
2-1, About 400 people witnessed the
duel, that never for a moment slack-
ened and which kept the crowd on
tip -toes ` of expectancy.. Promptly at
8 o'clock Referee Thorndike of Clin-
ton, gave his instructions to the play-
ers, dropped the puck starting the
battle. The locals` secured the disc
and for a few minutes made a deter
mined assault on the Kincardine goal
but that defense and their goalie -
proved equal to the effort, and saved,
the situation. For a time the visitors
shone as attackers and only the ex-
cellent work of Jack McGee and the
Lockridge boys staved off a decisive
defeat, Just at the beginning of the.
second period Ross took a pass from
Alf. Lockridge who circled the net,
and drove home the first counter.
Both teams battled hard till the last
few seconds when Kincardine scored
on a long shot froiir above the . blue
line, tying the scoring: With a 14
score both teams tirade tremendous
efforts to notch the winninegoal and
it looked like over -tithe, until the last
half -minute when• Alf. Lockridge got
an opening and whizzed the rubber
in. Of course there was' real cause
for cheering and satisfaction at the
result, but a good deal of credit must
be given the visitors, who put up a
real battle,

Winghatn Senior Hockey team won
from Ripley 8-1, in the Arena on
`Monday night, and, largely because of
lone reason. They were better skaters
and faster in thea -a a . Then
g t W y
' they possibly played, a' better com-
binationame but so far as close
g ,
checking or shooting, . the visitors
provedthemselves capable equals. On
several occasions Ripley players got
possession of the puck in_undisputed
territory,' but before the players Ant
into action, one or more Wingham
players were right on the job. It al-
so looked as if the local boys were
in better physical condition, . They
showed no signs of letting up on the
pace, while the scarlet -clad boys ap-
peared fagged and listless.
Right here a word of praise must
be spoken of Mr. Thorndike of Clin-
ton, who handled the game with ab-
solute fairness and strict impartiality.
He saw that the rules were observed',
and kept clean hockey all night.
The game opened with a dash on
the visitors goal, and for the first ten
minutes both teams put up a fast and
snappy game, with many close calls
on the visitors' goal. Towards the
end Harold Mitchell shot from the
blue lineat the right side and sent
a sizzling shoulder -high one which
the goal -tender never saw till it drop-
ped at his feet in the net.
The second period „proved deadly.
for the visitors when the locals earn-
ed five additional goals, Harry Brown
took Alf Lockridge's pass from the
rear of the net and scored; Bert Mc-
Intyre drove a true one straight from,
centre at the blue line; Kenneth Som-
ers and Alf. Lockridge figured in an-
other goal, and McIntyre wriggled
the whole length of the rink to fool
the Ripley guardian with a close shot.
Ragged play featured the last per-
iod, four local boys getting minor
penalties, but the one-man advantage
did not benefit the visitors. Then
Bowers of Ripley got away below
centre, and with a clear road shot
high and true to get their only goal.

OBITUARY
Mrs. Edward Armstrong
It was with feelings of deepest sor-
row and profound regret that we
learned of the death of Mrs. Edward
Armstrong, which sad .event took
place on Sunday, December 29th, at
her late residence, tot 2, Con. 13,
Grey. After her marriage she lived
for some time on the 10th Con, of
East Wawanosh. The deceased had
lived in Grey for more than forty
years and in her demise, the commun-
ity has lost a true friend and Pining
neighbour; one who was ever ready
to help the needy and to console the
sorrowing, In her, was exemplified
those admirable qualities which char-
acterize a truly Christian `wife and
mother. She is survived by two sons,
Wm. J. and Charles L. of Grey, one
daughter, Rev, Sister St. Gregory of
the St. Joseph's Conitnunity Toronto;

A DELIGHrTFUL TRIP THROUGH INDIA
ENJOYED ,BY WINGHAM CANADIAN CLUB
A meeting of the Wingham Canad-
ian Club was held in the Council
Cham4 r on Friday evening, . January
17th. Miss R. Hastie gave as a piano
solo the Nocturne in B, by Chopin
and received the hearty applause of
the 'audience.
Thedistinguished guest
of the ev-
ening was Miss Annie L, Laird, Pro-
fessor of Household Economics, of
the University of Toronto. Miss
Laird gave an illustrated lecture en-
titled "Four Thousand Miles Through
India," In introducing the speaker,
and announcing her subject, Dr. Red-
mond quoted the lines:—
"What can they know of ;England
Who only England. know?"
By learning something about other
lands than our own, and especially
about countries which form apart of
the British Empire, we shall under-
stand and appreciate Canada more
fully, and become more worthy citi-
zens of our great Dominion.
Again the members of the Club
have been transported in imagination
from the snowy fields and bracing
airs of a Canadian winter to a land
of brilliant tropical sunshine -- this
time, to India.
We have been wont to think and
speak of the teeming millions of In-
dia, while, in reality, in comparison
with other countries of the world,—
Great Britain, for instance—it is not
so thickly populated. By the last cen-
sus, its . inhabitants number about
three hundred and twenty million
people. It is a vast country, extend-
ing about two thousand miles from
north to south and about two thous-
and miles from east to west. It is
about seven times the size of the en-
tire province of Ontario, or about the
size of the continent ,of Europe, ex-
cluding Russia. Thislattercompari-
son, Miss Laird said, is perhaps the
more accurate, as the population of
1
India is comprised of various races,
and there are several different root
languages in use, The vast majority
of the people live in small villages,
and an amazing number of these may
be found within a very small radius.
In Calcutta, which is the second larg-
est city in the British Empire, the
commercial interests are in the hands
of the foreign -born, but in Bombay
(the third largest city in the Empire)
the natives have retained control of
business affairs. Antorig the impor-
tant industries of India might be
mentioned the manufacturing of tex-
tiles; the native people are masters
of the art of weaving and dyeing the
fabrics, and it would be difficult to
equal the products, of their workman-
ship, in fineness of texture,. clarity of
colour, and beauty of. design. Mention
should also. be made here of the fam-
ouswoven gold saris of 13:enares and
Madras. Among the .religions• of the
people of India,. three stand out prom-
inently — Mohammedanism. B.uddh-
ism and Hinduism.. There are also
the Parsees who were driven out of
Persia in the seventh century, and
who hold, among- other strange be-
liefs, that it is wrong tobttry their
dead.
After we landed at :Bombay, the
ship was re -provisioned for its jour-
ney to Singapore. Everything was
carried on board on the heads of na-
tives, and in the baskets which they
carried, we could see occasionally the
leg of a chicken or the tail of a fish.
On the streets of Bombay, the ways
of transportation were varied - the.
camel and the ox -cart vying. with the
motor -car. From Bombay we took
tle train to Ahmadabad where we
saw several Mohammedan mosques,
each with its minaret from which is
sounded the call to worship. One
could not but be impressed by the
beauty of these mosques, in one of
which, instead of windows, were pan-
els of lacy, exquisitely carved stone..
In this place also we visited a Hindu
temple built at a later date, very or-
nate in design.
As we left Ahmadabad for Jaipur.
at 'three o'clock one afternoon, we
had an excellent opportunity of ob-
serving the travelling public of In-
dia. It is surprising to see howmany
people- take advantage of the railways
in that country. One of the little pe-
culiarities of the more illiterate class
was rather amusing to us. Instead of
inquiring what time their particular.
train leaves, as we would do, they
pack .up their beds,anti sometimes all
their worldly possessions as well, and
camp, out on the station platform un-
-til their train comes along.
After visiting Jaipur, we travelled.
north to Delhi,, the capital of British
India. From Delhi we went to Agra,
a walled city, which was the seat of
government of the Mogul Empire in
India. The first rulers of this line
were too busy maintaining control in
the newly conquered territory to do
any building, but Shah Jehan the
third, was able to devote much time
to. building. He built a beautiful city
of red sandstone, but Tater abandoned
it, as the water supply failed. He al-
so built severer palaces, one as a resi-
dence for his fou wives. the
r wtv e.. After t o
death of his favorite wife, a Persian
princess, he built as her tomb, the
wonderfully beautiful Taj Mahal,
he, too, is buried.
After our visit to Agra, our route
l'ay through Lucknow, Cawnpore and
Benares. Rising at seven o'clock one
morning, we saw the banks of the
Ganges River, at 13enares, swarming
with priests and devotees of Hindu-
ism; some of them, doubtless, pilgrims
to that sacred spot. From Benares
we travelled north to I)asjiling, froth
which place we saw the snows of the
Himalayas. Here, also, we caught a
glimpse of Mt. Anchanjanga, which,
after Mt. Everest, is the highest peak
in the worrrd:.
We journeyed south again, trirougit
Calcutta,and ondown: to the south
of India where we visited the Vellum
Medical School, in Vellore, and M
dura, Leaving Madura, we crossed
to Ceylon where we noticed patrticrt-
larry the rich tropical foliage and the
brilliantl'y colored flowers,. From
Colombo, in Ceylon, we took ship, for
the i; etttrrn voyage.
I)r, Redmond expressed on behalf
of the audience its appreciation of
this most entertaining lecture,, and
the meeting closed with the singing
of, "Gott Save the King."
Miss Laird was the guest of Mr.
and Mrs. R. Vanstone.
