the discovery by the police of a bot-

could not give a satisfactory acco-

go but and prove his point. The
liquor stores in London say that the
numbers on bottles mean nothing to

Interesting Hobby
• R. Grosh, chemist with the St.
Marys 'Cement Co., for a number of
years bas taken a deep interest in
astronomy. Mr. Grosh makes his
own telescopes. The largest of the
telescopes has a lense 101/2 Inches
across ▪ It took many months of
spare time in which to grind the
lens. A variation Of even a million
part of an inch would be disastrous
as far as results were concerned.
Such an instrument would cost, izf
purchased from an opEciac4 firm,
about $5,000. 1VIr. Grohhas five

IN MEMORIAM "
In Loving Memory of Ivan Oesch
who departed this life one year ago,
March 14th, 1933.
Home to Jesus, Horne to glory
Every wave of trouble o'er
He is now with other loved ones.
On that happy peaceful shore
Sleep in peace, dear Ivan,
Tis sweet to breath your name
In life we loved you very dearly
In death we do the same
In your grave calmly sleeping
While your spirit shines above.
Safe in your Saviour's keeping
Waiting for those you loved
We'll trust in God to meet again
Where parting has no name.
Sadly missed by Parents, Brothers
and Sisters.

Dear Mother, you are not forgotten gelical Church next Sunday evening.
Though on earth you are no more,
Still in memory you are with us ,
As you always were before.
Take up thy cross and follow Him.
Nor think, till death, to lay it down;
For only he who bears the cross
May hope to bear the glorious crown
In that bright, eternal city,
Where no tears e'er dim tne eye;
In the home of many mansions,
We will meet her bye and bye.

o'clock Zurich almost experienced
another fire; this time in the. garage
of !Mr. Harry Rose. Some gasoline
wasstanding in a can which in some
unknown way became ignited and the
blaze quickly spread in a small stock
room pnrtitioncn off fromm
the an
i
ropair room. Mr. Rose, was seem-
ingly alone at the time and he hur-
riedly ran to Mousseau's garage to
give the alarm, and in a few minutes
Elzar Mousseau and Ted Klopp were
at the place of fire with the fire
engine, and quickly played the chem-
ical hose on the blaze, putting it
• out in short order., This is once
of several times that the engine was
,there with the goods, and saved a
bad conflagration
FIREMEN ORGANIZE
On Tuesday evening in the office

urged the Pollee Trustees to get
in communication with Toronto and
ask for lower rates to the local con -
