Danger in Snowballing. -The Chief
of Police has asked The Expositor to
draw the attention of the public, and
especially of young boys, to the dan-
gerous practice of throwing snow-
aalls on the streets. On Tuesday af-
ternoon • the horse of Mr, Anderson
Scott was struck by a snow ball, be-
came unmanageable and ran away,
breaking the harness and cutter, but
fortunately, Mr. Scptt was not injur-
ed. It is easier to take a warning
than to settle a large bill of damages.
That is something boys should re-
member.
life's i,'aluea, perhaps. its significance,
derive largely from the little every-
day Gontaets with those about us. If
this be true, the worth of humanity
would seem in great measure to be
the sum built up by men and women
of good will, carrying on generously
through life's daily contacts with their
fellows and very conscious of the great
importance of the total which is made
up of little things rightly done. Such
people are the basis of what is stable
and good in any community, and the.
stability of nations come from .their
communities. At the Church of the
Covenant last Sunday, there were
quoted in memory of Mrs. Biggs these
lines:
"0 valiant heart,
Splendid you passed, the great sur-
render made,
Into the light that nevermore shall
fade."
Hail! valiant heart. Hail! and
farewell,

vocate of this week makes the follow-
ing reference to the death of Mrs.

widow of the late Richard Babb, died

parents, the late Mr. and Mrs. James
Dawe, when a child of eight years.
'They first settled in Waterloo County
and about eleven years later moved
to Mitchell where she has been'a con-
tinuous resident ever since. Her hus-
band who had been a prominent mer-
chant in Mitchell predeceased her by
some years. Deceased was helove_I
by a large circle of friends and ac-
quaintances and she had been a great
worker in the Methodist church, later
United Church, and had filled many
offices in the various societies. Not •
withstanding her years she was smart
and active up to a short time ago, butstrengthfor the,past six weeks it was notice-
able that her strength was failing
and she passed peacefully away trust-
ing in' the hereafter. Deceased was
the mother of twelve children, nine of
whom survive; Mrs. Eliza Tucker,
Mrs. Edna Boyd and Miss Lily Babb,
at home' Mrs. F. D. Hutchison, Sea -

Mrs. Jean Hamilton Briggs. -The
Bystander, an American magazine,
published in Cleveland, makes the fol-
lowing reference to the death of Mrs.
Jean Hamilton Briggs: "A great lib-
eralizing element would brighten our.
human course, if in the midst of life's
hurry, and its impacts, we could ap-
praise greatness of soul and give it
due, recognition -as we do when the
irstant of death completes the pic-
ture of a life with mass and outline,
light and shadow all defined and in
perspective. Mrs, Briggs (born Jean
Hamilton McDermid, at Seaforth, On-
tario) died at Tucson, Arizona, on
December 10, 1929. The duties of her
early life involving the discipline of
daily helpful association with the
grim realities of suffering and death,
molded and strengthened a nature of
naturally rich endowment, -and perm-
anently fixed her inborn gifts of
quick sympathy and prompt effective
action. The flowering and maturity of
this noble character in the twenty-six
years of her married life, was mani-
fest to the many friends she welcom-
ed with gracious sincerity to the home
and family life of which she was the
center, radiating that warmth and
cheery helpfulness now remembered
as a benediction. Always she gave
greatly of herself, simply, spontan-
eously, without stint, and she was of
those of whom it was said "They give
twice who give quickly." That good
fortune enabled her to reach far, ex-
tending her helpfulness to the great-
er needs, was a detail only ---firer gen-
ius would have found,, and did find,
other tools with which to work. In
war time she with others organized
and carried on the activities main-
tained so finely by our women. Day
by day, month by month, until peace
came, those capable untiring hands
were busy in the work of the Hospital
Supply Division of War Relief. To
the School of Art, the Institute of
Music and many other public under-
takings, her help was gladly given,
But those who knew her in her
home and saw how completely her
woman's heart centered there, in the
vhful development of her children
as life's greatest opportunity, saw a
vision that will be cherished. Through•
