NOTICE TO CREDITORS IN THE MATTER of the Estate of George Daley, late of- the Township of East Wawanosh in the County of Huron, Gentleman, deceased. NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN, pursuant to The Trustee Act, that all creditors and others having claims agairis.t the Estate of the late George Daley, arqz required to send particu­ lars of their claims, duly verified, to J. AV? Bushfield, the solocitor for the Executors of the said Estate, on or before the twenty-fifth day of March, A.D. 1939, and that after such date the Executors will proceed to distrib­ ute the said Estate, having regard on­ ly to the claims of which they shall then have had notice. DATED' at Wingham, Ontario, this - seventh day of March, A.D. 1939. J. W.’BUSHFIELD, Wingham, Ontario, Solicitor for the Executors. If you run out of bread, tea, sugar or spice he's always willing to bring some from the store for you. If the children are sick, and the doctor wants to semi a bottle of medicine out, he’ll be glad to wait until the pre­ scription is mixed up for you. He’ll run errands for anyone, and. ^ne day I saw him leading a horse behind his cutter. Joe Phipps sold a horse to the milkman in the vilage, and because Joe was laid up with his lumbago, Zeb didn’t think anything of delivering it for him. Zebediah probably hears mor.e gos­ sip than any other man in the whole township, Mrs. Tedsy tells him all about how popr a cook her son mar­ ried. He has the official report of the sewing circle on such and such a young hussy and the clothes she got in the city. He hears all about how the Zilches may get a divorce . . and scraps, of gossip from everyone . . . and still Zebediah goes on his way, and one thing certain , . , Zeb never passes it on. Sometimes he may be. a. little late. Lazy Meadows' is alrnost at the end of his route here. You often see the horse and cutter coming slowly down the road just as night is beginning to fall, and both horse and driver must be about tuckered out. He’s had an early dinner and he’s an hour over­ due for supper. The telephone on the Concession has been ringing steady for the last hour and a half and can­ tankerous women have been railing him for not getting there sooner with the mail. The chances are, when the mail does go through they are the ones who get only a monthly account from a store, a mail order catalogue, some samples they’ve sent for or per­ haps, nothing at all. So far, I’ve done nothing but praise Zeb. He deserves it, and gets far too little. But there is one thing that can get him down. - It just makes his blood boil, and gets his dander up every time that it happens. Those are the pennies in the boxes. Now Zeb gets all bundled up for his cold trip around the concession with ‘the warmest clothes that he’s got. He wears a great'fur cap and a coon skin coat , . . and woollen mit­ tens. He wears two pairs of them in fact, and carries spares jn case they should get wet. He has the mail all bundled up in individual bags and he can slip the mail into the box and take out the other bag. That is, he tries to . . . and manages quite well as long as there are no loose pennies. Pick up a mailbag and have three pennies slide back into the very far­ thermost reaches of it. Then scramble bgck into the box with a mittened hand and try and pick up those elus­ ive little pieces of small*currency that slither all over every time that the box is tipped. Get one between mit­ tened thumb and forefinger and have the other two slide out into the snow. Take off the mittens and scramble in the snow for the pennies . . . get your fingers wet and the sake of the box. Zebediah is a gifted with a pleasing personality and a -disposition that makes a perfect man in a job that would try the patience of Job. But thost loose pennies in the box are the one thing that can m^Ice his blood bubble . . . and I don’t blame him Fiery, Itching Toes and Feet Here is a clean, stainless antiseptic oil now dispensed by chemists at trifling cost, that will do more to help you get rid of your trouble than anything you've ever used, Its action is so powerfully penetrating that the itching is instantly stopped; and in a ehort time you are rid of that bother­ some, fiery eczema. The same is true of Barber’s Itch, Salt Rheum, Itching Toes and Feet-r-other irritating unsightly slcin troubles. You can obtain Moone’s Emerald Oil in the original' bottles at any" md[iern drug , store. It is safe to use—-pod failure in any of the ailments noted above is rare indeed.

Stew­ art M'cGee, a life-long resident of this tows and district, passed suddenly away on Thursday afternoon. Mr. McGee had been working at the post office for the past year and a half. After dinner Thursday noon, he was carrying on his duties apparently in good health. He was seized with a heart attack and passed on an hour and a half later after being removed to his home. Mr. McGee was in his 67th year and was born on the' 10th Concession of East Wawanosh. He was a promin­ ent merchant here for many yehrs, for a short time he conducted a clothing business but for twenty-hvo years he carried on a grocery and china shop. A little over two years ago he suff­ ered a stroke, making a splendid re­ covery. Mr. McGee was well known for his cheer-y disposition and his friendly greetings will be missed by his many friends. Fie was a member of St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church and in politics a staunch Liberal. He leaves to mourn his passing his wife, the former Agnes McKellar, to whom he was married in 1896 and one daughter, Mrs. William (Bertha) Hen­ derson. He is also survived, by two brothers andv, two sisters, Harry F., of town; John J., of East Wawanosh; Mrs. Jennie Simpson, of London, and Mrs. Janies (Carrie) Robertson, Seat­ tle, Wash. Rev. ‘ Kenneth MacLean conducted the funeral service at his late resi­ dence, Edward Street, on Saturday afternoon. The pallbearers were: John W. Hanna, Daniel Geddes, S. S. Campbell, W. A. Campbell, W. A. Miller, W. W. Armstrong. Burial took place in Wingham Cem­ etery. This year the prospects are good for an encouraging yield of high quality.; It is expected that not more than; 20,000,000 trees will be tapped in 1939,• due to the' serious damage caused by i the hurricane which swept through the Eastern States and considerable part pf Eastern Canada last Septem­ ber. In most years about-24,090,000 trees are tapped in the Provinces '^f Quebec, Ontario, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, although there-are, it is estimated, approximately 70,000,000 trees capable of production. In 1938 the total production of ‘ maple syrup in Canada was 2,955,300 gallons, valued at $3,479,440, and the total output of maple sugar was 8,- 455,900 lb. with a value of $370,500, making an aggregate value for maple products last year of $3,849,900, the highest for several years. The Prov­ ince of Quebdc accounted for about 90 per cent of dll the maple, syrup pro­ duced in Canada in 1938 and for near­ ly 80 per- cent of the total output of maple sugar, A considerable percent­ age of the production of maple pro­ ducts in the Province of Quebec is marketed by farmers’ co-operative or­ ganizations. Sap running time comes at a period of the year when there is little other activity on the farm and the harvest of maple products provides the farmer with money to buy seeds and other necessities for the busy season that, begins a few week's after work is over in the maple bush. The new maple syr<up and sugar will be on the market in a short time. Either can be kept indefinitely if stor­ ed in a cool place. They are essent­ ially Canadian products with recog­ nized healthful qualities.
