25 NEIGHBORS AID
GODERICH TWP. FARMER
The old saying of, “Many hands
make light work,” was proven recent
ly at the farm of Jack Yeo, conces
sion 9, Goderich Township, when in
a few hours 25 tractors plowed 50
acres of land.
The plowers, all neighbors of Mr.
Yeo, were organized by Edward Grigg,
former reeve of Goderich Township,
when Mr. Yeo was taken to Clinton
Public Hospital with a misplaced disc
in his back. Neighbors came to his
assistance when it was learned that
he would be hospitalized at least a
month.

KIDNEYACIDS
Rob your Rest..
Many people never seem to get a good
night’s rest. They turn and toss—blame it
on ‘nerves’—when it may be their kidneys.
Healthy kidneys filter poisons and excess
acids from the blood. If they fail and
impurities stay in the system—disturbed
rest often follows. If you don’t rest well
get and use Dodd’s Kidney Pills. Dodd’s
help the kidneys so that you can rest
better—and feel belter. 136
