A, Galbraith, Clerk, tended in a body and with the God- erich Collegiate cadets occupied the pews directly behind the mourners. Masses of beautiful flowers were banked around the altar and the cas- kets were completely covered with beautiful floral tributes. The vast congregation, led by the choir, reverently sang the Twenty- third Psahn, and Rev. Mr. Bunt, of the Baptist Church read the lessons and offered prayer, and the singing of "Rock of Ages" followed. Rev. Mr. McDermid's sermon was finely expressive of the deep feeling for bereaved families in their over- whelming sorrow. Lake Huron had taken its toll every year. The lure of the water was in the blood of some of those who have been brought up by the lake. Mr. McDeriiiid paid a kindly tribute to the deceased young men, The adventures of youth often led to danger in life, he said, but intim- ated that life is a voyage on which Christ is the Master of the ship and Heaven is the Haven. The sympathy of the people of Goderich was evi- denced by their silent token of sym- pathyin their attendance. The hymn, "Nearer My God to Thee" was sung and the benediction was pronounced by Rev. J. E. Ford. While the church" bell tolled, the caskets were borne through the ranks of the cadets . from the sacred edifice to the street where the fun- eral cortege was lined up. The cad- ets marched ahead, followed by the hearse and the car with the mourn- ers of the family of Wiliam Mal - lough, after which the funeral of Leonard McDonald came. The pro- fusion of flowers was carried in two cars, then when the cortege reached the pillars at the entrance to the Huron. Road, the cadets stood at. at- tention as a parting tribute fo res- pect to a poular schoolmate, and the funeral with its long line of two hun- dred and thirty-five cars, passed through their ranks to Maitland cem- etery.. At the cemetery, Rev. Mr. McDer- mid conducted the service at the graveside of William Mallough, while Rev. Mr. Bunt officiated at the last resting place of Leonard McDonald. The pall -bearers for William Mal - lough were: James Anstay, Ernest Peachey, 'William Bannister, Jack Allen. Those for Leonard McDonald were William Mclvor, Geoffrey Peachey, William Thomas and Kenneth Mc- Auley.

SPOTTON VOTES 74).71 LIBERALS PRIVATE BILL Division bells rang in .the Com- mons Friday night and strangely en- ough the Conservative member who forced the vote, received most of his support from the Liberals and was opposed almost solidly by members of his own party. Armand Lavergne, deputy speaker was the member, and. his private bill would have made im- portant changes in the manner of condticting criminal trials. Only two other Conservatives, George Spotton, North Huron and I. D. MacDougall, Inverness, besides the sponsor, sup- ported the bill. It was defeated 74 to 29, The bill would have prohibited judges in addressi>} g a jury from commenting on facts adduced in evi- dence; it would have permitted a de- fence counsel to address the jury last instead of the Crown Attorney and would switch criminal trials in Que- bec Province from the Court of King's Bench to judges ofthe ses- sions. Hon. C. H. Callan, secretary of state and G. R. Geary (Cons., Tor- onto South) stoutly opposed the bill. Support for it came from Vincent Dupuis (Lib,, LaPrairie-Napierville). Premier Bennett and all members of his cabinet who were Present, voted against it. - Rt. Hon. MacKenzie King, Liberal Leader, was not in the House when the vote was taken.

GET READY TO ANSWER QUESTIONS Forty questions will be asked ur- ban householders in the Canadian census, which will start June 1, and farmers must supply information in regard to 254 inquiries. An army of 15,000 enumerators will conduct the survey, completing it in the cities in a month. More time will be taken for the farm census. Not only is a census of population being taken, but a census of agriculture, mercantile in- stitutions, employment and institu- tions for the blind and deaf. "Have you a radio in your home?" will be one of the queries. Others will inquire whether persons can read or write, their ages, occupations, whether they are single, married or divorced, .birth dates and country of origin. Persons will also be asked how many weeks they have been em- ployed during the past twelve mon- ths, and, if unemployed, the reason. Besides these questions farmers will have to answer many more. The inquiries will deal . with the name, birthplace, term of residence in Can- ada of the farmer, farm workers, farm population, farm acreage and tenure, the condition of the farm land and its values and mortgage, the ex- penses of the farm in 1930, and'farm facilities, giving the kind of road ad- joining the farm, the distance to the nearest market town, the machinery on the farm, and "has this farmhouse running water in the kitchen, in the bathroom?

The following resolution from S, S. No. 9, East Wawanosh, was presented to. the Trustees and Rate -payers Assoc. by Mr. George Kerr: "Whereas the present system of legislative school grants is detrimental to the welfare of rural schools, as it places an ex- tra taxation -on the rural ratepayers and whereas heavier taxation is an incentive toward the lowering of the rural teachers' salaries, which means lower grade of teachers for the rural section, and whereas higher rural tax- ation and fuller urban education fac- ilities are the means of driving our Young people to the urban centres and of discouraging our young peo- ple from settling or remaining on the farms; be it therefore resolved that we, the ratepayers here assembled, viewing with alarm this action of dis- crimination against rural schools, do hereby earnestly implore the Legis- lature of the province of Ontario, too so amend the Legislative school grants to enable the rural trustees to build up a better rural educational system. Mr. John Cunningham, who has been with Mr. J. J. .Kerr for the last year and a half, has returned to Guelph. Mr. Wm. Wellings, who underwent an operation in the Wingham Hospi- tal, is getting along nicely.
