While the F': eyed is not the great and all embracing • iRow that the Can- adian National ]r,+ adei+bition has be- come, from an agricultural standpoint it is yet greater. No man who is interested in agri- culture or in the breeding of live stock, in any branch, should neglect the opportunity of attending the Roy- al either as an exhibitor or spectator. The finest live stock on the Ameri- can continent will be there and will afford an opportunity of study and comparison no farmer could avail himself of in the time or with the same limited expenditure of money. It is an opportunity that should not be passed up.

The Dominion minister had come te Toronto three weeks previous to speak in connection with the opening of the National Life Assurance Com- pany's new building, but on the train suffered from a slight stomach indis- position and had to cancel his en- gagement for the following day. Three days later it was found he had contracted pneumonia, and for the past two and a half weeks he had been confined to his room in the Roy- al York. His illness, however, was not considered very serious, and on the evening previous to his death, his physician had pronounced him out of danger. His condition continued fav- orable until noon on Monday when he was stricken with apoplexy, and died shortly after four o'clock in the af- ternoon. Hon. James A. Robb was cne of the most outstanding men Canada has produced. Although not an orator nor a statesman in the usually accepted term of that word, he commanded the corifide-nce of both parties at Ottawa, and throughout Canada to a degree that has very seldom been accorded a Cabinet Minister. He was a man of the people, and his sudden passing is looked upon by all Canadians, irrespective of party, as a distinct loss to Canada. Continued from Page Eight Stratford on Saturday.—,Mr. Janes L.

Free Press says "on to Ottawa" is the Tory battle cry and the Toronto Mail and Empire adds that as the march proceeds the hurdles get lower and lower. We take it that these papers are taking the recent Conservative suc- cesses in the Ontario elections, as a happy omen of what will occur when the Federal elections are held a year or so hence. But in the eyes of clear thinking people, that does not follow, not at all. Ontario politics and Dominion politics are two very separate and al- so two rvery distinct things. Take the situation right at home for an ex - The counties of Huron and Perth are represented by four members in each House with constituencies identi- cal in each. In the Ontario Inouse these constituencies are represented by two Conservatives, one Progres- sive and one Liberal. In the Federal House they are represented by three Liberals and one Censervative, and it is conceded by both parties that they will be represented by four Liberals .after the next Dominion election. The fact that the Liberals in three ef these ridings had as great a part in returning three non -Liberal mem- bers to the Ontario Legislature at the recent election, as did the Con- servatives themselves, is so apparent that it does not need to be pointed out. The policy of the Liberals in Dominion politics is clean cut and decisive. It is the policy that ha3 brought great prosperity, not to one eection or to sections, but to Canada as a whole and is bringing an ever increasing prosperity. It is a policy that commands the confidence and support of every Liberal. They are behind it to a mart and are going to obey behind it. That, unfortunately for the Liber- als, has not been the situation in On- tario politics. But great as is the laroviees of Ontario and great as has been the Consereatiee victory in that proeince, neither Ontario nor the Con- e ervatiee party is yet big enough or powerful enough individually or to- 2;',,fyartheir to &age the policy cif the ifhireet a Canada, endi as long as Cain- CntAlPrit Cry of Oa- tatto Ofelteetiratiene will not eta mud) .,the Sean 14e p>rn Fe lie] hero ndea toe x + @ o o, *mai topica, gear.

Thel ser- vices of Dr. Moir, of our village, were secured as quickly as possible, and after attending to their injuries they were, later on in the evening, able to resume their trip. The car that collided with them from the north was not very much injured and neither were the occupants. Sunday Services.—The church ser- vices in our three local churches on Sunday last, Thanksgiving Sunday, were well attended and fine sermons appropriate to the occasion were de- livered and excellent music by the choirs, embracing excellent anthems, duets, solos and violin selections. At the morning service at the United Church, Rev. Mr. Sinclair exchanged duties with the Rev. Mr. Connor, of St. Andrew's Church, Kippen, who gave a splendid discourse and at the evening service the pastor of the United Church again exchanged du- ties with the Rev. Mr. Doan, of Clin- ton, a former pastor of Hensall Church who gave an excellent sermon along the lines of Armistice day and making very feeling references to the fine soldiers who had laid down their lives for king and country, and how thankful we should be for the peace that we were now enjoying as a re- sult of the supreme sacrifice that they made and the blessing of God in ruling circumstances that led to the termination of the greatest war perhaps in the annals of history. Death of Mrs. Taylor.—iWe regret this week to have to report the death of Mrs. Mary Love, relict of, the late Mr. James Taylor, which sad event occurred at Toronto, where she had been visiting with her son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. John S. When of that city. Mrs. Taylor had been in declining health for the past year or so, chiefly caused through harden- ing of the arteries and which was the cause of her death on Monday afternoon last. Although during that day she felt as well as she had for some little time, she felt that she was nearing her end and was quite re- signed, for when the doctor was call- ed in to see her she told him that it was not necessary for him to give her any treatment that would just extend life for a very short time, as she felt the time of her departure from this life had come. Just in a few minutes after thus speaking she calmly breathed her last, so gently that it could scarcely be known. The deceased was in her 78th year and until very lately had been in the en- joyment of very good health and was a wonderfully active and smart wo- man, possessed of many excellent qualities including thrift, industry, integrity and marked intelligence. She was a member of the United Church after the union 'being former- ly a member of the Presbyterian church, and was every regular in her attendance. The deceased and her late husband were for many years on a fine farm some miles east of our village, in the Township of Hibbert, and were noted for having a wonder- fully neat and well kept premises. Coming into our village many years ago to enjoy retired life, they first bought a fine residence, now occupied by Mrs. Reid and daughter, corner of Queen and Nelson Streets, and selling it they purchased the fine one on our Main Street, at the east end, which has been Mrs. Taylor's home for a number of years. The deceas- ed leaves to mourn her death her son, James, of Toronto, and her daughter, Mrs. J. S. Wren, of that city, and her daughter, .Mrs. ,john Shepherd, of Tuckersmith, near Chiselhurst. The funeral, which was a private one, was held from her late home on Wed- nesday afternoon last, the remains having been brought here for inter- ment in the Hensall Union Cemetery. The sorrowing son and daughters have much sympathy expressed for them. The funeral service was con- ducted by Rev. A. Sinclair, of the Hensel]. United Church, and the floral tributes were beautiful.

It was noticed first by Mr. Jacob Deich- ert, who lives acroas the street, and he gave the alarm. The fire truck did good service and it is said that Mr. Hey's dwelling would have burn- ed if no fire fighting apparatus had been availafble. No wind was blow- ing at the time of the fire and this assisted the fire fighters. The Hen - salt fire brigade arrived while the fire was in progress and stood by ready to assist.
