Even yet there are those who look at the residents before they leave in the autumn, and, with pity fairly drip- ping off their tongnes, ask; "What ever do you do with. yourselves in the long cold winter? It must be very' lonely." But times are changing; There are city folk now who appreeiate Hayfield's beauty and quietness in the winter, And amongst those who occupied their cottages or homes in the village last weekend, to enjoy the snow, were: Mr. and Mrs. A, Cajanda, Mr. and Mrs. 0. R. Sage and daughter, Edith, Stratford; Tony Pugh and family, Royal Oak, Mich,; Mr. and Mrs. George Bennett and family, Mr. and Mrs. John McConkey and two children, Mr. and. Mrs. E, W.

It was heard by Mrs. Charles Bell. Since that time several others have been heard.

In many eases farmers, were in no way involved; hi more cases farm drivers probably •were innocent victims of careless highway motorists. But farmers and their families died in some of these sinash-ups, Paean vehicles were destroyed. And directly or indirectly Ontario's farm population pays a share of the tremendous cost that motor accidents annually inflict in this provinde. Safety is everybody's business, everybody's responsibility. The farmer has a major Stake in the safety of rural roads whether they are familiar township routes, regularly travelled county roads, or our provincial super highways. Death and injury lurk at every intersection. The Ontario rederatibia Of Agriculture is marking Aural Safe Driving Week on February 20 to 25th. May I urge every farmer and farm family in this province to give their attention and active support to the occasion. During this week—and every week—drive to an, accident won't be yours. Thin, F. S.
