S):IAFORTH, 'Friday, September 29, No Election This Year The announcement has been wade by' Premier Henry that there will be no election in Ontario this year. The Legislature will entt•r its fifth session next winter because, the !Premier says, an election this fall would have a ,eery bad effect upon business. As far as the 'burin . s of govern- ing Ontario by !1a•. Henry is con- cerned, no doubt the Premier is cor- rect. An election at this time would have a very devistating effect upon that. It would, in fact, put it out of business. On the other hand, general business, as far as the rural centres and the 'farm are concerned, might welcome an election. Business conditions there are such that it would take more than an election to make them worse. Any change, or anything that might make a change, would, there- fore, , be welcomed. However, the Premier's announce- ment has eased the tension some- what. A Loss to Canada , ICanadiatr history recalls few trib- utes to the memory of a public man greater than has been paid by the :press of Canada to the memory of the late Mr. Justice Raney, who died at his hone in Toronto on Sunday last. Particularly .noticeable was the fact that it was non-political and non- partisan. It 'carried, too, a ring of sincerity and truth that Was unmis- takable, and merited only by a great Canadian citizen who had given a great part of his life to public ser- vice. And Mr. Raney was a notable citi- zen. Notable in many Ways. Few men served 'the public under more 'trying circu'nistances and few served it with more independence. With him -principle was above poli- tics. During During his life he supported both, the 'Conservative and Liberal parties and during the U. F. 0. gov- ernment, as Attorney General, he . was, perhaps, the most able man in the Cabinet. • 'Certainly no member of that Gov- ernment shouldered greater responsi- bilities or displayed greater ability in the discharge of his 'official duties. 'Few mer- can switch their political beliefs so often without losing a large measure of public confidence. With Mr. Raney, however, it was a question of principle. No one ever accused• him of making political changes for personal gain. That fact, in itself, is outstanding in public life. !Mr.-Raney's life in public office was nota happy one. He was always un- der heavy pressure, but never once did he lack the courage of his con- victions; never once displayed the white' feather. Wihile in office his political oppon- ents were nunvbered by thousands, but however much they may have re- viled his political beliefs, not one of them ever questioned his personal in- tegrity. In politics 1VIr. Raney was an out- standing man and in his death the bench has lost an -able and impartial administrator of justice. the country fairs held in the county this year, there has never been a time in fair history, when there was a larger entry, or when the quality of :live stock of all 'kinds was super- ior, or elven equal to the stock that has been exhibited this year. Nor has there been a time in recent years when fair, were more largely at- tended, or when a keener interest was taken in the displays. The Country Fair is an old insti- tution, but it is still going strong. ZURICH FALL FAIR (Continued from page 1) Jersey—Milk cow in calf or giving milk, • T. lliddleholtz. H.

Still Going Strong The wise heads, who for some years have been broadcasting the in- formation that the Country Fair, as an institution, had seen its best days and:was about to pass out of the pic- ture, must have rubbed their eyes as well as received a severe jolt this fall, if they are at all observing per- sons. The fact of the natter is that the County Fair is not even showing symptoms of decay let alone actual death. And wiry should it? 'The country fair is one of the ,greatest agricul- tural educational features that rural Ontario poss'essses. (ft is mare than that. To the wide- awake farmer it is a potential mar- ket; a place where the best the com- munity - manufactures, grows or breeds is centred for his inspection; a place where buyer and seller are both on coratten ground. And then there is the social side of the country fair. "Wihere but at •a fair does one meet as many old frienda1 Friends and acquaintances one has net .seen since the year be- fore on c'h'ew day.

A pleas- ant feature of the occasion was the pri)senting to Mrs. Joynt of a very handsome fruit bowl and snapshots of all taken on the verandah, and 'where tea was served, and it is al- most needless to say much enjoyed, and before leaving many were the good wishes expressed for, the happi- ness of Mrs. Joynt in Toronto where she is making her home with her three sons.

Upon their return they will reside in Londdin. The - Sacramtent of the Lord's Sup- per was observed in the United,church on Sunday morning last with a large attendance, with an excellent sermon by the pastor, Rev. A.

There Was no service in St. Paul's Anglican 'Church owing to Harvest Home Services ,in the sister congre- gation at Staffa, the choir of St. Paul's Anglican Church, Bengali, add- ing much to the occasion of the Stara services, both morning and evening. A meeting of the bean growers was held in the town hall on Saturday evening last.

BONTHRON The Young People's Society will Bonds and Insurance - Hensall hold their first meeting for the fall 8483-2 and winter session, which will be a -. social or eget-togetheh meeting in the' school room of the United Church on • lentation.—On :Thursday evening of last week some sixty of the relatives, neighbors and friends of Mrs. George (Alice) Joynt, met at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Clark, as a meeting place, and from there march- ed in a body to the home of Mrs. Joynt, nearly opposite, and gave her a ,genuine surprise, as she and her sons, who were `home that week from Toronto, had not heard even a whis- per of the surprise in store. It is almost needless to say that Mrs?. Joynt gave one and all a most hearty welcome and full possession of the commodious dwelling, and very soon after arriving an impromiptu program was prepared and G. J. Sutherland was invited to preside over the pro- ceediegs, including the reading of an address. We will now just make short mentiom of said hurriedly pre- pared program, the opening number being a piano number by Miss Gladys Luker, followed by a piano solo ,by Miss Florence Welsh; a duet by Mrs. Ai Sinclair and ;Mrs. Anna ME/Donald; a reading :by Miss Margaret John- ston, and a little later another piano instrumental by Miss Gladys -Luker and a ••reading by Mrs. Anna McDon- ald. At this juncture the men be- came in evidence in the way of a fine quartette by the Pike Bay Singers, who in the past have made • a fine re- putation, their first number calling for a hearty encore, . after which short remarks were made by Dr. A. Moir, John Passmore, David A. Can- telon and David Nicol, all express- ing the pleasure of being present and the regret that f'ilrs. Joynt was leav- ing in a few days to be with her three sons who are preparing to en- ter leading professions. After the, address read by the' chairman, and eou'ple"d with it was the presentation made of a most beautiful and costly set of china presented by Rev. A. Sinclair, with a fine address, in which he endorsed the address very strong- ly, stating that it bore eidence to the many excellencies of Mrs. Joynt and the splendid part she had played in social, church, musical and liter- ary circles, to which Mrs. Joynt feel- ingly replied, and which address we subjoin as Mrs. Joynt has so many relatives and friends scattered not only throughout Ontario, but also in the Western Provinces. Before dis- bursing a dainty repast was enjoyed provided by the visitors, followed by those popular songs, "For' She's A Jolly Good Woman" closing with "Auld Lang Syne" and a full chorus of good wishes for a happy life in Toronto with her three sons.. The following is the address: "Dear Mrs. Joynt: We as a few of your relatives, near, neighbors and host of friends, of both you and your late husband, are met this, evening to spend what would be a truly enjoyable evening were it not tinged --yes, filled --with the deppest regret, , on account of your deoision, in the interests of your three sons, to move to Toronto where they'are now living to join them. And while it is •only most natural that you shoul& wish to be with them, yet at the same time it means separation from us, aid. the pleasant associa- tions we have had with you for many years in church and kindred organiz- ations and in musical and literary circles 'in all of which you have .tak- en • such a whole-souled, active and efficient part, and while all those ac- tivities have displayed your real worth and most excellent talents and we might be permitted to emphasize music and singing in particular.
