Deer Sur:— The summer is over an the wimmin do be shtartin' to talk av Christmas already. :Shure, the saysons same to be goin fashter an fashter iviry year fer a lot av us ould oidintities, so they do. It only sanies loike a wake arr two since I wus hilpin the missus to plant her gladiolum bulbs, an now it will soon be toime to elickt a new town council, arr to let the same crowd run tings fer another year. Fer mesilf I tink "Lave well enough alone," is, ginerally shpakin the besht plan, annyway it is a good Tory pol- ishy, an, won us the elickshun in noin- teen elivin, an the only differ anny- wan. cud see, whin we got into pow- er, wus that the Tories had the shpin- din av the money, an a lot av the byes got good hilpins on theer plates whin they passed thim up during the war toime. 'Twas as it shud be, fer, shure, didn't the Tories divilop the counthry, an make it what it is to- day, so what rayson have thim Grits arr U. F. O's. to ixpickt anny favors. But, shpakin av the Town Council, I tink mebby we cud shtand the same gang fer another year, if the crops are good an business kapes on loike it has been dein wid all our factor- ies. Av coorse, it isn't always a woise plan to lave min in awfice too long arr they may begin to tink they own the whole wurruks. Whin a taicher begins to shpake av my school, an my childer, arr a mimber av Parley - mint shtarts talkin av my constitoo- ency, arr a praicher av my church an my payple, thin it is toime they had theer wings clipped so to shpake, so they can't floy so hoigh. Some day I spud loike to see the experiment throid av elicktin a Town Council' av all single min. The thru- bble wid married min is that they are not allowed to hew much say in tings arround home, so whin they git to be mimbers av parleymint, arr av the Town Council, wid nobody to hould thim down, so to shpake, they are apt to shtep on the gas too harrud at toimes. Sortie payple wud go in fer elick- tin wimmin to the Council,' but I tink it wud be a rnishtake intoirely, fer they are not open to rayson, an be- soides that ye can't biff thim wan whin they don't agree wid ye, loike ye cud. wid a man. I know be mesilf whin I wus presi- dent av the bafe ring out on the ould farrum, how some •av the wimmin shtarted to tell me how I shut cut up the mate. I got aven wid thim be sindin all the besht pieces to the wim- min who had sinse enough to hould theer tongues, an all, the shanks an necks to the wans that grumbled. Av coorse I waissen't elickted the nixt year, but I had a lot av fun whoile the jawb lashted. Yours fer a bigger an betther Canada, Timothy Hay. OBITUARY Thomas R. Ferguson Thomas Russell Ferguson, an em- ployee of the. Bank of Montreal in St. Thomas for seven years, died at the Memorial Hospital Monday night November 11th, after nine weeks' ill- ness. He came to that city from Ex- eter as accountant of the east end ! branch. He had elieen popular in I banking circles, and particularly with railroad men who form the principal fIf clientele of the bank. He was re- I Gently moved to the west end branch, I where h was employed at the time of his illn s. He was born at Tees -1 water in 1888 and while in that city att/,�nded Knox Presbyterian Church. Stf'rviving are his widow, two daugh- ters, Betty, aged 10, and Phyllis, aged seven; a brother, George D. Fergu- son, of Seaforth, and a sister, Mrs. Zetta L. Gallant, of New York City. The funeral took place on^ Wednes day at 3 o'clock to .Teeswater for interment, forabout20 years, he beim 'a son of the late Mr. T. S. Brandon and Mrs. Brandon' of Wingham. His marriage to Irene paylor,daughter of the late Dr. A. B. Taylor and Mrs. Taylor, took place 14 years ago. He'conduct- ed a book and stationerystore here for some ten years. On disposing of. his business, heaccepted a position with the Canadian Department Stores, He was a staunch member of the United Church and had served in various officesin that institution. He was also an active member of local Lodges,, being Senior Warden in the Masonic Lodge as well 'as a Past Grand of the Oddfellows and served as the lodge's treasurer for • some years. The following are immediate relatives who survive: the sorrowing wife, his mother, Mrs. T. S. Brandon, Mrs. Wilfred Reid of Wingham and Miss Hazel at home, and one brother, Mr. Norman Brandon of St. Marys. The funeral took place from the home of his mother in Wingham on Wednesday, interment in the family plot. Service at the house was con- ducted by his pastor, Rev. Dr. Mor- row and Rev. Mr. Richards of Han- over, and Rev. Mr. Davison of Wing - ham. The Masonic Lodge of Hanover, with local brethren, had a short ser- vice at the house and conducted the burial service at the grave. The pall bearers were men chosen from the Masonic Lodge. The floral offerings were both beautiful and numerous, bearing testimony to the high esteem in which he was held by a wide cir- cle of friends. Friends attended the funeral from London, Hamilton, Drayton, Schom- berg and Beeton: Hanover Post. Brock Brandon The town was shocked last Sunday evening when word was received fron'i St. Marys that Mr, Brock C. Bran- don bad died there that day' at the home of his brother. Deceased was 43 years of age. The late lvtr, Brandon bad a.inost genial nature and was very popular with a wide circle of friends here, and his sudden death, after his gal- lant struggle for health, was ;most poignantly felt here. He had under- gone an operation for brain tumor some weeks ago in a Boston hospital but had recovered sufficiently to re- turn to his home her, and, with the exception of failing eyesight, was thought to be getting along well, He and Mrs. :Brandon left town three weeks ago to visit in Wingham and St. Marys, as the doctors had advised him to take a rest, and it is believed complications developed which result- ed in his demise. Deceased had resided in Hanover Robert C. Maguire Very deep regret is felt in town at the death of Robert C. Maguire, in London Hospital on Sunday, in his 62nd year. Mr. Maguire was a pop- ular man of the town, serving his second year on the Council when he suffered a 'Stroke, from which he nev- er fully recovered, and for two years has been gradually losing strength. He is surivived by his. widow, who shares the sympathy of many. friends. The funeral on Tuesday to Wingham cemetery evidenced the esteem in which the deceased was held. Many paying this last tribute of respect to one who had served his community faithfully. Mrs. Bernard Keip The funeral took place Tuesday morning of Catherine Dehler, widow of the late Bernard Keip, who pre- deceased her about 20 years ago. She was born in Waterloo 69 years ago, and has been a resident of Wingham for the past nine years. Prior to her coming to Wingham, she had lived in Teeswater for fifteen years and for a number of years she and her hus- band had lived on a farm near Rip- ley. Deceased had been confined to her bed for the past months. Sur- viving are two sons•and one daugh- ter, Mrs, B. J. Beninger, with whom she had made her home for the past year, E. J. Keip, of Detroit, and John, South Line, Brant township. The funeral took place from the residence of her son-in-law, and mass was sung in the Sacred Heart Church, after which the remains proceeded to the Roman Catholic cemetery, Teeswater. FOSH4.Y COMPANY TO . "CARRY ON." We are informed that the 'W, B. Foshay Co. will continue to operate their power plants in Bruce County, and that instructions' have been giv- en Mr. W. H. Grove, who has been in charge of .their activities here, to go ahead with development work as though nothing had happened. It is intimated that friends of Mr. W. B. Foshay have come to his assistance and that the whole concern will be re -financed, and that the same aggres- sive policy will be pursued in Bruce County as during the past year and a half, The repairs to the Walkerton dam have been completed, and the plant there was set in operation on Saturday night, thus eliminating the use of the large Diesel engine at the Chippewa Hill plant which has been supplying the county town with light and power for several months past. The electrical store in Port Elgin, and, we understand, the company's stores in Southampton, Hepworth, Wiarton and Walkerton were tem- porarily closed down today—Port El- gin Times. Mrs. Thomas M. Henderson I ife'as uncertainty has another striking reminder in the death of Mrs. Thomas M. Henderson, which occurred in the hospital on Sunday evening, following an operation of a ratherserious nature, a few days pre- viously. While she had been in 'in- different health for some time, her condition was 'ti1ot realized until the doctors operated, and she " had been able to perform her 'home clout- iestto the last. She was a daughter of the late Thomas and Mrs. Link - later of West Wawanosh where she was born on March 16th, 1872. She has been a resident of this locality the most of her life with the excep- tion of about seven years, which she spent in the West. Surviving are three sons, Rollie of London, Priee at home, and Perrie of Toronto; al- so two brothers, John of Minneapolis and Kenneth of 'Milwaukee, and four sisters, Mrs. Anthony Nichol of Lon- don, Mrs. James 'Plourde of Owen Sound, Mrs. Minnie Dinslcy of Wing - ham, and Mrs, ,Neil of Acton, The. funeral, took place on Wednesday, at two o'clock, from the United church, to Wingham cemetery: Huron & Erie Trustee Debentures An .authorized investment for executors and trustees.

With the tables heavly loaded And the , waiters with their trays, People very nigh, "exploded"; (Beg your pardon for the phrase), But to see them hiding chicken One could prophesy their fate, For they ate, and they ate, and they ate. Nbw,'the people came from Chatham, And from Blenheim by the score, Till it seemed that every atom Would be eaten koro the store; For the journey on the highway Such a relish did create That they ate, and _they ate, and th.ey ' ate. With our nephews and our ncices And our neighbors sitting by, Some secured at least two pieces Of the golden pumpkin pie, And the tarts, and cakes, and cookies One could not enumerate, For they ate, and they ate, and they ate. How the kiddies did enjoy it, As they& did their little shares, And they could not well deny it, They resembled Teddy -bears, As they toddled off ,together With a slow• unsteady gait; For they ate, and they ate, and they ate. So the chicken. cake ,and. salad Were pronounced "The very best" By the author of this ballad When he made the final. test, And he had a chance of knowing For he sampled every plate, And he ate, and he ate, and he ate.

A LONG PULL AND A STRONG PULL FOR THE WHEAT POOL The Wheat Pool may not have chosen an opportune time to stage its fight against the markets of the world. Declining stock markets are. apt to produce sympathetic declines in other markets, But the Pool is standing manfully to its guns. Its second line of defence, the financial institutions of the country, showno sign of wavering. An occasional shout of "We have . beaten the Pool" may come echoing over the Atlantic. But the fool managers know or think they know the value of their wheat. Their financial backers evidently be- lieve that -world conditions are such as to justify their confidence. It may take a long pili and a strong pull hit everybody must hope that the Pool wins in the end, For alt Canada will share in the fruits of vic- tory if it does, Buy Your Winter Coat Now at A Big Saving Stylish Models in Plain Tailored and Fur Trimmed Coats for Women, Misses and Children Cut Prices in Women's and Misses' are $14.50, $16.50, $19.50, $22.50, $27.50.
