BOO
DOWN AT THE HEEL — Joe
DiMaggio, the Yankee Clipper,
hobbles out of Johns Hopkins
Hospital at Baltimore, Md., on
crutches to 'begin X-ray treat
ments for his ailing heel. The
star New York outfielder is suf
fering from “immature calcium
deposits” in the tissues adjacent
to the right heel ibone. DiMag
was very down at the heel and
mouth over his latest recurrence
of his injury that, somewhat
dampens the Yankee hopes for
the 1949 campaign, but one Bal
timore surgeon said Joey may
play in 120 games if the X-ray
treatments taken are successful.

a continuation of fertility and

“Do you act toward your, wife
as you did before you married
her?”
“Exactly. I used to stand in

Speaks At
Clandeboye
Standing beside a stone cairn
in the picturesque (grounds of St.
James’ Anglican Church, Clande
boye, Rev. -Dr. Ramsay Armitage
M.A., D.D., . M.C., principal of
Wycliffe College, Toronto, bowed
his head Sunday in remembrance
of the early settlers and found
ers of the church.
Dr. Armitage was the logical
choice as guest speaker at the
Clandeboye Church’s ,9 0th an
niversary, for . his own fore
fathers were among the first
settlers in Biddulph Township
and were active
the first parish in
sex.
Picturesque Site
The big red
nestled among stately pines and
budding maples, stands on a
knoll overlooking No., 4 Highway
half way between Lucan - and
Clandeboye.
Behind the church, stretches
the undulating green sod of the
cemetery, one of the best-known
in Middlesex County. Ornament
al cedars dot the rows of granite
headstones, some of which date
back a century. ,
Speaking Sunday at the nine
tieth anniversary service to a
near-capacity crowd that includ
ed many former district resi
dents, Dr. Armitage paid tribute
to the pioneers who created the
community and the church.
Need spirit of Settlers
“If we wish to pay tribute to
our forefathers,” said Dr. Arm
itage, “we must do our part for
the church and the Dominion in
the same spirit of sacrifice and
adventure as the early settlers.”
Although Dr. Armitage, who
has been principal of Toronto’s
Wycliffe College for the past
eight years, is not a native of
the Clandeboye district, he re
gards it in a way as his “home
community,” for his great grand
father was one of the first set
tlers.
Tile Armitage’s were promin
ent members of the community
until Dr. Armitage’s father,
later Archdeacon William James
Armitage, moved to Halifax.
Caimi Near Church
The stone cairn, standing just
south of the present church near
the highway, was erected jn 1932
in memory of Col. James Hod-
gins, the first settler and first
reeve of Biddulph Township, Who
deserves credit for founding St.
James Church.
Col. Hodgins, to whom Dr.
Armitage is distantly* related by
marriage, was also a Canada Co.
agent, and was instrumental in
having the fifteen acre site set
aside for an Anglican ohurch.
The first frame church was
built in 1859, and replaced
about 1374 by the .
structure of red brick, set on a
stone foundation. ,
Rev. L. C. Harrison, rector of
St James, Clandeboye, a n d
Trinity Church, Lucan, since
1931, was in change ,of the an
