DATED' at Wingham, Ontario, this

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

R, Stewart McGee
Following a heart attack, R. 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.

CHASE AWAY THE BOREDOM
BLUES BY KEEPING YOUR
DESSERTS VARIED
By Betty Barclay
Up go spirits and down go the dol
drums if you top off dinner with a
surprise dessert. A fruit pudding
made of quick-cooking tapioca is al
ways interesting, for you can ring a
dozen seasonable changes on the bas
is recipes.
This tapicoa cream deserves a plus
A in the housewife’s quick' and 'easy
files. It needs only a few minutes’
cooking and the ingredients—except
the egg white and flavoring—can all
be mixed in the double boiler or
saucepan iti which it is cooked. So
there’s an appreciable saving of cook
ing utensils. And it always comes
rig^it—for it thickens to a rich creamy
texture as it cools,
To be on the safe side df the sleep
ing problem, serve decaffeinated cof
fee with yottr dessert, Remember de
caffeinated coffee requires a little
longer brewing time if you make it by
the pot or percolator methods.
