There passed away at her home in
Gorrieon:Friday morning, July Isth,
Annie Margaret Stankey, wife of Mr,
Jesse Harrison, in her S4th year, De-
ceased was born near Mildmay and.
'lived in that0 v4tcinity until about twen-
ty years' ago, when the family came
to Gorrie, where they have ever
since, resided. Mrs. Harrison had been
in poor hearth for the last ten or
eleven years and her death was not
une,peeted. Besides her husband,
she leaves to mourn her loss a fans
ily of fivesons and three daughters,

service at the house at 4 p.m.` on
Sunday, conducted by Rev. F. W.
Craik of the United church, the body

where interment took place.
The pearly . gates were opened,
A gentle voice said, "Come",
And with farewells unspoken
She gladly entered home, '
Sol ie day we hope to meet again,
Some day, we know not when;
To clasp her hand in the better land,
Never to part again.

day afternoon under the auspices of
the United Farmers of North. Huron
to take part in the advertised ,picnic
and to hear the speakers engaged for
the ,occasion: The crowd was not
large enough to .suit the ideas of Miss
Agnes Macphail,' M.P., who in her ad-
dress soundly rated the North Huron
officers for bringing busy people like
herself, Mr, Oliver, M.P.P„ and Mr.:
Gilroy, president of the. Farmers' Co-
operative Company, to address so
small a gathering. The chairman
might have retorted that Miss Mac-
phail's repeated failures to appear
when advertised might have made the
people skeptical as to her appearance
on this occasion, but he was too pol-
ite to do so.
R. M. Young acted as chairman,
and the first speaker was Robert Mc-
Millan, of Seaforth, who spoke some-
what briefly on the need of co-oper-
ative effort among farmers.
Miss Macphail took .as her main•
theme "Occupational Organization.
and Its Effect on Government." Re-
viewing some of the historic strug-
gles of the past, she said the people
were now struggling for economic
liberty -for some leisure, for better
education for their children, for 'a
better living with less work. Political
action was necessary along with the
co-operative movement. This was the
day of big business, when the little
fellow or the individual farmer' had
no chance at • all, in Parliament the
banks; the transportation . interests
and the manufacturers had more to
do with government than all the nest
of 'tire people combined.. The farm
els' cause had been unfortunate in its
leaders-Crerar, Drury, Forke. Upon
Crerar Miss Macphail ,placed the
blame for the wrecking of the hopes
of the Farmers' party in Parliament
from 19zi to 1925.. Crerar today could

no corrupt practices on the part of
Anderson, the Liberal candidate.
The petition in the ease of North
Bruce is •dismissed, the costs to he
yaid by the petitioner, W. H. Fenton,
Progressive candidate in the last .pro-
vincial election. 13y this decision, A.
P. Mewhinney, Liberal, retains his
seat.
Justice Rose in giving judgment'
said that the determination of the
case of South Bruce will serve to call
public attention to the fact that the
Offering of valuable consideration to
a candidate or any other persons in
order to withdraw from being a can-
didate is something that will not be,
tolerated.
