BEFORE INSTEAD OF AFTER,
OK WHY NOT NOWT
Sacramento, Cal., Jan. 21, 1921.
Editor Expositor:—The heading of
this may seem somewhat strange, and
perhaps what follows may seem even
more strange. - But I quite often see
in your paper, as well as in other
papers, such heading as Obituary
Notice and In Memoriam, and have
been wondering why some things
might not be said while people are
alive and not after they are dead.
Perhaps Bill Powell had somewhat
the same thought when he wrote "The
Egmondville that Isn't," and said none
of the early people of Egmondville
ever heard their own funeral sermons
preached. Perhaps he thought it
might have been better to have said
some of the nice things about them
while they were living. Then we
quite often hear people say that they
want their bouquets while they are
SSW and not after they are dead.
Si; with these thoughts, I will write
+h`' following:
Here is to my moth(•.
Who has always by me stood,
And has given ane the help
\Vhnwh no other person could,
When 1 ''e- bot •.n infant.
She rocked me fast to s,nci,;
when I n'vol , r.fn.chrd,
She watched rix' barn to creep.
Whim i w-rs t ., rya ;Lel I•.I!'lo:,;
I tested in het tee •r,
As she ort beside my , r I IL
t'or 1117IrN a weary helm
When I ctenntonced to toddle,
And go from chair to chair,
11 I should slip and tumble,
My mother was right there.
\ft.•r mane a fall mei bump
She soothed and eased Tiny pain;
Then with her helping hand
She would help me try again.
Then when 1 grew to boyhood,
She clothed me warm as wool.
She put up my lunch and hooks,
And 1 trotted off to school.
When I came home at. evening,
Just as hungry as a 'hear
A big pan of fried potatoes
Was always' ready there.
This filled our empty stomachs,
Drove out the cold and chill;
And forget those fried potatoes,
f sure never, never will.
Then when the day was over,
And nn more we saw the sun,
We sat around the fire
When the evening meal yeas done,
While mother waahed the dishes
And father had his smoke,
While we listened to some stories,
Or father cracked a joke.
We love her same :Id cupboard,
Likewise the same old clock,
The same old arm -chair and rocker
In which we used to rock.
Perhaps not quite sv strung,
And perhaps not quite as speedy.
But, still she hes the time and heart
T� help the sick and needy.
NoW, all you other mothers,
In the Land of the Maple Leaf,
Just dry your tears of sorrow
And forget your hours of grief.
For, although we have not said it,
We often times have thought
Of your many years of labor,
And all the work your hands have
wrought.
And you who still have mothers,
It may he many miles away,
Just write a little letter,
It will cheer n gloomy day.
.May this start span•fe. to thinkin:
Of a lonely ne.t!nv'swait,
As she stand beside the window',
As...she• looks toward the gate
For that one who ne'er has written
And who ha: not y,1 returned;
And for who'll diet mother's heart
Fur many p. al's hr.:: yearned.
As she goes about her duties,
Perhaps back on the farm;
She may be cold and chilly,
While you are snug and warm.
If yeti would write a letter
Just one'. Int several weeks,
It will ken•, her heart much warmer
And give Color to her cheeks.
Let us hand them some bright ruses
While they are with us here;
It will brighten dreary weather
And add to life some cheer.
While their eyes arebright and shining
And their ears are still unstopped,
Voice is sweet and mellow
And e'er their lips have dropped,
While they e'an see the colors,
And can catch the sweet perfume
Of expressedresnei appreciation
ion
E'er they enter death's cold tomb.
Now, it' you will write that letter,
Through scrawled, and in a hurry.
Then this may be worth while,
This pre -obituary.
Then we sat around the table
With no electric light.
But some forty fears ago
Coal -oil lamps were pretty bright.
There we struggled with our lessons,
With our mother sitting near;
And when we got discouraged,
Mother always gave us cheer,
We asked so many questions
That I am aimest at a loss
To know the reason why
She was never tired or cross.
She would tell us cheerful stories,
And speak of men of note,
As she sat and knitted stockings;
Or mended pants or coat.
With all our needs of clothing
She never lost her wits,
For in just one winter evening
She could make a pair of mitts.
When our schooling days were over
And we worked upon the farm,
Mother made us hone -spun breeches,
And shirts, that kept us warm.
Tf we became discouraged,
When things would not go right,
She always had n, Me cheering words
That m:tlie, tLlnt•:s all look bright.

FROM AN OLD McKILLOI'
('ORRESPON DENT
Toronto, January 20th.
Dear Expositor;—Here we are
again; after a mighty' cold spell we
are now getting a bett.: quality of
Weather.
Mayor Church, who has been ill for
over a week, is still confined to his
bed. His many friends are hoping
that the peoples' Tommy will soon
recover.
Magiktrate Dennison has been hand-
ing out pretty stiff sentences to
scoundrels who break lntu houses or
who hold people up on the streets.
Since my last letter three have been
sent to the penitentiary for ten years,
and fifteen have been sent for five-
year terms. It is to be hoped this
will have a good effect on would-be
criminals.
The city now has two lady alder-
men, Mrs. Hamilton and Mrs. Small.
They are grand women, and have
taken a leading place in charity and
social uplift work. Speaking of social
uplift work. I attended a meeting
whore parents were invited, a short
time ago. Mrs. Small was present.
She gave a tender and sympathetic
address of half an hour's duration.
Another lady from a distance gave a
lengthy address and her plea was in
behalf of children born .out of wed-
lock. She deplored present conditions
and said that seventy per cent. of
these unfortunate children died be-
fore they reached a year old. She
n.ttributccl this to neglect and in many
instances to something \corse than
Hillary nglect. She suggested that
these children at all times beragiven

A LETTER FROIM DULUTH
Dear Expositor:—Since my hast,
winter has shown a disposition to
assort more forcibly his authority.
On the morning of the llth, 16 below
zero mark was registered in this
city. To -day it has been cold, windy
and blustering, and seemingly the
thermometer is dropping rapidly to-
night. So his hoary majesty has yet
grasp"
regal crown of snow,
a g on ht e
frost and ice diamonda, but taken on
an average, it has been very mild
thus far.
In The Expositor issue of Novem-
ber 2Cth, I read of the resignation
of Mr, J. Anderson Coulter as the
President and General Manager of
the John Morrow Screw and Nut Com-
pany, of Ingersoll, Ont. Mr. Ander-
son was but a boy when I bade adieu
to my relatives and fridrtds in Mc-
Killop and Grey townships in the
spring of 1882, but I remember of
hearing of him as being an exceptional
smart and bright scholar. I believe
he went to No. 6 school, It: ti illep,
for time at least. and itis with a
gratified pleasure I read of his bril-
liant record and of the splendid tri-
bute paid to him in the resolution
moved by F. H. Deacon and seconded
by Harry Vigeon. I well knew Mr.
John Morrow in the "Days of Auld
Lang Syne" as a schoolmate at No.
0, and as a youth at that time of
energetic mind.
In The Expositor issue of Decem-
ber 31st, I read with pride of the
signal honor that has come to Dr.
Mary Logan Cowan, who was born
in Seaforth, and received her first
education in the public school and
Collegiate Institute of that town.
From time to time I have been
pleased to read in its columns of the
gratifying records made by many of
the sons and daughters of old Huron,
and these only made possible by de-
termination and perseverance in the
different lines fpllowed. Many of
the pupils taught at No. 6 have made
good and are making good. At first
many taught school and later branch-
ed out into other professions, such
as doctors, to cure the ills of this
flesh; some as professors, with B. A.
attached; 'probably some have become
ministers to exhort mankind and wo
mankind to walk in the straight and
narrow path; and others have follow-
ed different vocations, and still others
have been tillers of the soil. No. 4
school, McKillop, has also turned out
rn:uly shining lights. Some bream"
rut ed leachers; other barristers of

One of the ablest. pulpit orators
in the city Passed away las week :af-
ter a few days' illness This was
Bishop EV/111S. Tin had been high tip
in the counsels of the Latter Day
Feints, commonly called Mormans,
for over forty years, lief left them
a r.mple of years ago and started a
new church called Christine Brother-
hnnd.
Another talented nratnr died herr
in poverty a short time ago. This
was Professor J. B. Watson. Some
}-oars ago he was termed the silver-
tongued orator. and some people
around Walton and Seaforth will like-
ly rrrellrt. his lneturs given al. these
places which were certainly n treat

paralysis rid had been unable to

I, .. 1 \lent' other fern:. • pupils n
of the fair Dominion to hew for them-
selves homes in a dense wilderness,
then inhabited by bands of wandering
Indians, and through which roamed
the bear, wolf, deer and other deni-
zens of the woods unmolested except
by a swift -driven Indian arrow. They
suffered and tore patiently all the
hardships incidential to pioneer life,
but they believed and trusted in 11:1
and the holy Bible, the bulwark of
British liberty, was to befound in
every home. Up went the log school
house so their children could have an
education. Up also went a log church
SO they could assemble to worship,
pray to and ask for God's guidance
and protection. These log schools and
churches later on were replaced by
others of more modern structure. By
hard and almost unceasing toil the
virgin forests were converted into
beautiful farms and homes,mea and only
those who performed this heroic task
knew the hardships, suffering and
privations that often were encounter-
ed and overcome by these indomitable
bands of pioneers, nearly all of whom
have bade this life's journey adieu
and joined the silent majority. May
they all rest in peace. Such as these
were the parents and grandparents
of many who have and are bringing
credit and renown to old Huron. So,
gentle reader, kindly allow me to re-
peat what I have read more than
once and nearly in these words, if 1
remember correctly: "It matters
not where the sons and daughters of
to say, the cattle returned but no one
,n charge. It was simply a case of
a little girl, barely six summers,
wandering away and getting lost. My
, u'ents, in alarm, 6tarted a search
and others of the good pioneers and
their sons as soon as they heard,
.joined in and ere long nearly all of
the community was on the search
for the little girl. In the meantime
she was found wandering aimlessly
on the 10th and 11th concessions, by
either Mr. Stein or Mr. Love, both
McKillop pioneers. Questioning her
and asking her whose little girls she
was, she replied "Peter's little girl."
Su she was brought back safe and
.ound to her parent's home.
The ,text now was: how were the
hunting parties, still searching the
apody and elsewhere, to be notified
'he lost wad found. My uncle, the
': tc Hugh McNaughton, who at the
termination of the Civil 'War, had
been mustered out of service, was
visiting us at this time. He had
brought along with him his Enfield
rifle, which had sung its requiem of
Beath un Gettysburgh's bloody and
derisive field and on other battle
hcitjs of carnage and slaughter, and
he also had brought along a liberal
supply of cartridges and percussion
caps. Ile suggested tiring the En-
field; permission was given, even
though it was the Sabbath day as
it was considered only proper those
till
searching should be notified. As
the trusty rifle roared and its echoes
resounded through the woods, Mr.
William Curry, a devout Methodist,
Wi one of the 9th concession's worthy
pioneers, and who joined the silent
majority in the spring of 1882, was
shocked with dismay and anger at
the supposed desecration of the Holy
day. He had not heard of the little
girl being lost. Hastening to the lo-
cality of the rifle's roar, he met one
of the Menarey boys, who dearly lov-
ed a joke. This youth had also been
in the search and already knew the
lost was found, and the reason for
the shooting. Accosting him without
any ceremony, the enraged Billy ask-
ed "Who's doingall this shooting?"?"
"Hugh
McNaughton,"
was the re-
joinder. "What is he shooting for?"
again asked the getting more ex-
asparated Billy. "Just shooting for
fun," answered the Menarey boy, try-
ing hard to suppress an outburst of
laughter. "Well, I will soon stop
his shooting. He is in Canada now.
He needn't think he is among the
Yankees and can du as he likes,"
said the now furious Billy, as he
strode away with hurried steps. But
when everything was safisfactorily
explained to him he joined in the
congratulations that the little girl was
found, and my uncle was freely for-
given.

Any time of the year is time to

LI is ton late to secure proper condi-
tions for this season it is riot too
latie to get ready for next year.
No matter for what purpose breed-
ing is carried on, to get best results
it is necessary to know what is back
of each indi''idual in the mating,
From a practical standpoint "Th.,
hen that lay's is the hen that pays,"
so it is from this standpoint that
the mating of the pens will be con-
sidered.
First of .v11 to know the individua'

THE BH Y SCOUTS
At present the y Scout �roiFp,
it appears, is constantly enlarging in
this town. At a recent meeting held'
in the Scout Hall, seven patrols were
organized. A patrol consist of from
severs to ten boys. F. T. Fowler
was elected Scout Master, with W.
Greig and F. Coates as assistants. In
the near future a town organization
will undoubtedly be formed, and this
will prove a benefit to all. A concert
will be given on Monday night, Jan-
uary 31st. A good programme is be-
ing arranged a new feature of which
will be the public speaking contest
ter the boys. Three medals are be-
ing awarded, and the competition
promises to be keen.
—The meeting of the Scouts was
held in their hall on Wednesday af-
ternoon, January 26th. Mr. L. T. De -
Lacey Atas in the chair. The Troop
Committee was present and a full •
attendance of the boys. The meeting ..a
was addressed by Mr. W. V. B. Rid- (_
Orli, of Ottawa, who is making a
survey of scent centres in Ontario.
The object of the meeting was to
bring about the completion of organ-
ization and to explain the details of
the Scout programme. After Mr.
Riddell completed his address, the
meeting was thrown open for quere
tions, which Mr. Riddell answered for
over an hour, during which time a
great many points of interest were
brought' up. Before the meeting ad-
journed the Scoutmaster, Mr. F. T.
Fowler, moved a vote of thanks to
Mr. Riddell, which was responded to
by three cheers.
