Johnson, on Wednesday afternoon, Highly respected resident of Howick, Township, Mr. Johnson had spent the : afternoon curling, a sleigh-load from_ McIntosh participating in the game. When in front ol Mr. James Austin’s; gate, he suddenly expired} Although in delicate health for some time, his death came as a great shock to his friends. Deceased was noted for his many kindly deeds and peaceable dis position. The funeral was held Fri day afternoon from McIntosh United Church, of which he was a member. His pastor, Rev, Raynor, conducted the service. “Rock of ages” and “Abide with me” were the hymns chosen, while the choir contributed an anthem “When the roll is called up yonder.” Pallbearers were members of ‘the curling club, Messrs. George Inglis, Oliver Deith, Clark Renick, Jack Renick, Eldin Renick and Ivan Haskins. Those left to mourn are: three sisters, Mrs. Albert Haskins, Susan and Marie at home, who have our deep sympathy.

Afternoon 3 to 5 p.m. A. H. MUSGROVE AS A TEACHER By P. S. Fisher Without enquiring why it is, it is comforting ito reflect, that after death the noblest part of personalities is pu- ’ permost in the hearts and minds of those who mourn. This is in harmony with the old Greek philosophy of judging men at their best. That- sen tentious saying of Solomon's “Cast thy bread upon the waters for thou shall see it after many days,” passes Jo and fro in front of “my mind, witir recurring frequency, as 1 contemplate the life of the late Mr. Musgrove. This is because notwithstanding his accomplishments in other spheres of human activity, I regard his life as a teacher as by far the greatest and the most beneficial investment he ever made of his useful influence. The teacher can never know the full harvest of his years of daily planting of the seeds of knowledge and wis dom, of precepts' arid princples. In conscientious the teacher is bound to feel the responsibility for the moral development of character pointing to correct conceptions of daily duty and daily conduct among his pupils. This grave aspect of- his work as a teacher he nobly fulfilled. Mr. Musgrove be longed to that older generation of in structors who made deep and lasting impressions for good, upon the multi tude of pupils who passed through , their hands. He had a fine^ sense of justice, so blended with sympathy for the erring scholar, that times, when he should have punished immediately, he lectured all, strode about with irres ponsible agitations, picked books off his desk only to put them down again and unknown to us-_.be was receiving upon the tenderness/of .h'is Irish heart the suffering he should have inflict ed upon a culprit’s hands. He whip ped one boy in the winter and never asked him to take off; his mitts. • His native kindliness'was very ap parent. At Christmas when he distrib uted candy, how genjal liis smile, ap proaching laughter, as.he-moved from seat to seat along the-jaisies adding to his office as teacher, the roles of Santa' Claus, Shepherd and Friend. On the baseball field taking.the place of the pitcher, ’ instantly;: the game be came enlivened- as he swung' into ac tion thrilling our young hearts with enthusiasm arid d'elight. At the time of the summer examinations his solici tude for ithe -welfare of the scholars was parental in the intensity of its interest and hopeful in the highest de gree. Once in a while he entered the room of one of the lower grades and completed the le'ssbn being itaught and while imparting knowledge usually in terspersed a pleasantry making us wish he would not leave so soon. On one such occasion he took the remain der of a geography lesson about Ire land. At the close he said, “If all Ire land were flooded with water what city would float?” He smiled, to the teacher, then to the pupils and des cended from the platform. Before his hand touched the door-knob some one" called out “Cork.” As1 he went through the door he looked back up on us all, visibly happy. By such pleasant and tactful means as these recited, the pedagogue united the pup ils to himself and thus more closely approximated the ideal condition of one pupil t,o one teacher. " The abilities which Mr. Musgrove brought to his chosen task were not only numerous -but were far beyond the average. In the various subjects comprising the curriculum of the, school he was equally at home with one as with another. His work claim ed his best and to his duties as a tea cher he gave unstinted devotion. In the extensive range of his intellectual persuits, literature claimed the lion’s share. He was well versed in historic lore and the themes of the poets surg ed through his heart. He was an en thusiastic patriot and keenly alive to the issues of the day, always ready with an answer, devoutly sincere for the stand he took. He never paraded his religion but was a humble follow er 'of .Jesus Christ. He would read a book of the Bible at a sitting. Such considerations laid the foundation of his moral stature. A. H. Musgrove will not be duplicated, but the good influences of his outstanding person ality will live on.

The very first, disease that man learn ed to control was a virus disease. This was smallpox which took an en ormous toll of life and beauty until at the beginning of the 19th century Dr. Edward Jenner learned from the chance remark of a dairymaid that a dose of the mild cowpox would pro vide the patient with a lasting or at least a prolonged immunity from var iola.
