Kirkton Man Finds Things Busy in England John Morphet Makes his Nineteenth Crossing of the Atlantic Ocean— Houses still going up by the Thousands—Wages are Higher Home from a visit to his native Yorkshire, John Morphet, well-known retired farmer of Kirkton, has com­ pleted his nineteenth, crossing of the Big Pond. Mr. Morphet left home early in June in the wake of the cor­ onation crowds. He was accompan­ ied cn the Overseas trip by Misses Mullen and Anderson, of Kirkton. It was three years since Mr. Mor- phet’s last visit to England. He found the same building activity which had impressed him on his last trip still going on. In his native village, iHarmby, Yorkshire, where all through his boyhood not a single new house had been erected, no less than seven new houses have gone up during the past three years and the buildings on two old estates have been renovated. This illustrat­ es the building activity that has been going cn over there. The rearment program of the British Government has further stimulated employment. The quarries, near his old home are busy getting out rock to be used in smelting. The coal mines have also large orders for smelting. There is much road construction and every little lane now has its surface of tar and stone chips. Men working on the road get 45 shillings a week for short hours and this has created a problem for the farmer who has to compete with this’ wage in hiring labour. Mr. Morphet was impressed by the number of poorly kept farms he saw on this visit and concluded tnat the absence of the former cheap labour has ad­ versely affected the upkeep of many farms. Conditions have changed might­ ily in English villages during the past generation. Before the war few people even moved out of their local parish and a stranger was an oddity. It was this condition that caused local dialects to develop through the centuries. Today all parts of the country may be repre­ sented in a small community, includ­ ing some foreigners. Mr. Morphet spent much of his time with his four brothers and only sister, most of whom live at or near the old home district. He enjoyed greatly a visit to his old friend, Fred Leonard, in Hertford­ shire. Mr. Leonard came to Can­ ada with ’ Mr. Morphet forty-four years ago but returned to the Old Land six years later when he frac­ tured a leg. He stayed in England and was successful in the insurance business. A few years ago he was made a J. p. which is counted a high honor over there. Mr. Morphet enjoyed the trips over and hack aboard C. P. R. Duchess steamers. Being himself a life-long stockman, he greatly liked the comany on the home voyage of a party of New Zealand farmers and stock-raisers who had been in Great Britain and the continent, visiting some of the leading breeders’ farms. —St. Marys Journal-Argus. OWEN—HODGSON At AUsa Craig at the home of Rev. R. Simpson, who officiated, the marriage was recently solemnized of Mary Loretta, daughter of Mr. Mr. and Mrs. Andrew' Hodgson, of Denfield, to Norman Henry Owen, son of Mrs. Owen and the late J, H. Owen, of Mount Pleasant avenue in London. The pretty young bride who was unattended, wore a white sheer gown, floor length with white pictuie hat and white sandals, and carried a shower bouquet of Johan­ na Hill roses, forget-me-nots and fern. A reception was held at the home of the bride’s parents in Dem­ field. Mr. and Mrs. Owen have tak­ en up residence on Tallbot street in London. WHITE—LAOKIE A pretty autumn wedding was solemnized in the United church in Lucan,' when Willa Aileen, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William Lackie, ‘‘Sauble Hill” Lucan was united in marriage to Albert Edward (Ted) White, of Brantford, son of Mr. and Mrs. Edward ‘yyhite, Adelaide street, London. Rev, Stanley Johnston per­ formed the ceremony in a setting of gladioli, dahlias and asters against a background of autumn leaves. Geo. Garbutt, of London, presided at the organ, and during the signing of the register, Mrs. Stanley Johnston sang the wedding hymn ‘O Perfect Love.’ To the strains of the Lohengrin bridal chorus, the bride who was unattended entered the church with her father. She was charming in a gown of ivory satin, fashioned on princess lines, flaring into a train, and short bolero jacket. A« face veil, of french net, was arranged over a small cap of ivory satin and pearl trimming and fell in graceful folds to the floor at the back. She carried a bouquet of briarcliffe -roses and fern. Following the ceremony a leception was held at the home of th bride’s parents. After the recep­ tion a wedding dinner was- served to the guests. Later, the bride and groom left n a motor trip, the bride travelling in black silk corded crepe dress with touches of jade, valour hat and black accessories. On their return, Mr. and Mrs. Ted White will live on Lincoln avenue, Brant­ ford. PICOBAC ■MM PIPE■HHk TOB ACCO^IH FOR A MILD,COOL SMOKE ] Backache Bother You? It May Warn of Kidney Or Bladder Irregularities, Take ARCTIC WH/D LIFE When hot summer days and nights are grilling us and our thoughts turn kindly to the Canadian Arctic, we are reminded that at only one place in this Dominion is there an op- protunity of seeig a collection of the most important species of the wild life of the far north as well as other regions, of course. That is the Provincial Zoo, located at historic Charlesibourg, seven miles from Que­ bec City. Built with funds from the Provincial Legislature and a grant from the Dominion Government, the Quebec Zoological Gardens were op­ ened to the public only six years ago. The Zoo proper occupies 30 o'f a site of 75 acres which has been des­ cribed by a German authority as the finest of its kind in the world. There are one thousand wild creatures there, one or more of almost every animal, bird or fish in Canada—from polar bears to porcupines, pelicans to cormorants, salmon to snakes. A small lake and the tumbling Le Berger River accommodate the aqua­ tic residents. The polar hears and cubs were the gifts of the Hudson’s Bay Company. There are to be seen the .rare Snow Goose, horned owl, bwid-headed eagle wild turkey, coyotes and wolves, looking like police aogs, cougars, black bears, foxes, wild cats, skunks arid weasels, the dreaded wolverines one of which has lost an eye in bat­ tle. The little known Arctic . Otter may be seen. There are mountain goats, sheep and elk, which grase In company with a family of Bison. Truly Quebec has provided a wond­ erful educational gift for the Dom­ inion and its visiting friends. When finished the Botanical Tree Garden will contain groves and rows of Canadian trees and shrubs of every variety.

Last year, 26 toddlers up to years of age met death in automo­ bile accidents almost as soon as they had learned to talk; 23 of these were tiny pedestrians who perished even as they were learning to walk. Two out of every three persons 65 years and -over who departed this life in traffic accidents last' year were on foot when their fatal mo­ ment arrived. There is a severe indictment of '■reckless driving to be found in those figures—a charge o’f apathy, if. not of gross negligence. Little children cannot >be held ac­ countage for their actions; they can­ not be expected to take care of them­ selves in traffic. Drivers must think for them and protect them. Elderly persons are at an equal disadvantage The mind may be clear but the foot­ steps falter and the necessary nim­ bleness has left their limlbs. Drivers' must look out for them, too, if need­ less highway fatalities are to be pre­ vented. From the point of view of climatic geographic and soil conditions, Ja­ pan may well be classified among -the poorer agricultural countries.

Thousands of happy families “out 'for a drive,” whizzing along on a typically picturesque On­ tario Highway. Suddenly, around a CUrve—screams, the shriek of brakes and tires, a terrific crash, the screech of tearing metal, the sick­ ening shattered of glass, agonizing moans—then a deathly moment of silence. A man, one arm hanging limp, crawls from the wreckage. One ear has been flayed from the side of his head. He leans over someone else in the car, then collapses. Help comes ’ almost immediately. ■Limp, -broken bodies are dragged ■from the wreckage and laid on the roadside. A thin red stream strickles over the running-board of the car and forms a pool on the righway. One body is covered over with a blanket. Two others are rushed to the hospital; there may still be time to save them. A bystandei’ peers curiously into the back O'f the car. He turns away with a shudder and is violently sick; someone esle fishes out an arm and tucks it under the blanket beside the still body. Ridley-Nixon A quiet autumii wedding was sol­ emnized at the United Churcn manse, Granton when Maude Ger­ trude, elder daughter of the late Mr, and Mrs, E. Nixon, and Law­ rence Ridley, younger Son of the late William Ridley and Mrs. Ridley, Were united in marriage-. The cere- mon Was performed by their pastor, Rev., L. C- Harvey. The bride’s wed­ ding dress was a lovely igreen crepe, with satih trimmings and she car­ ried a bouquet of pink briarcliffe roses and white carnations. She chose for a traveling a green cloth coat with sable fur collar, matching accessories. After a short honeymoon spent in Toronto and Hamilton, they will -reside on the 10th concession of Rlanshard Township, where the groom is engaged in farming.
