Mrs. Dexter received word recently
that her son, Pte. Harold Dexter, who
went overseas a few Weeks ago with the
161st Huron ilattalion, is seriously 111
with lobar pneumonia in Moore's
Barracks Hospital, England.
At a meeting in St. Andrew's Church
held last week for the purpose of
ascertaining the feeling of the congre-
gation in respect to offering a call to
one of the clergyman preaching here
during the past five Sabbaths, it was
decided to leave the call open until more
ministers have been heard.
The brotherhood in pinnection with
the Methodist Church, presented Miss
Pearl Gidley with a five dollar gold piece
as a mark of esteem to their pianist.
Miss Gidley is not a musician of
marked ability, but she gave unstinted
time and interest toward making
"Men,s Day" a success and was ex-
ceedingly worthy of this little consider-
ation.

Your Weekly Newspaper
0
pERHAPS you haven't bren thinking much about it—just taking
for granted that $J.00 a year is a right price for THE TIMES,
year after year,let other things cost what they, may. But you
are a reasonable being, and so can see that the price of a weekly
newspaper should no more remain "fixed" year after year than the
prices of such common things as 0
beefsteak
sugar
coal
boots
wheat
eggs
potatoes
clover seed
motor cars
lumbar
horses
land
CAN you think of any other commodity except newspapers and
their like whose price has remained unchanged and unchang-
ing year after year? Why, then, should your newspaper's
price remain forever the same—the same, for example, as when you
could buy
a cord of wood, for $1.50
a bushel of.wheat for 50 cents
a common fowl for 25 cents
a dozen eggs for 10 cents
a pound of butter for 12 cents
a cow fot $25
THE war has brought to a crisis a condition of things which has
vexed publishers far years; the selling -price of their newspaper.
It has sent prices of paper, ink, type and supplies skyward. It is
costing us many.more dollars a week now to produce The, Times
than before the outbreak of war. Where do we get off at?—in the
slang language of today. The. answer:is...we must get more for - The
Times. On July ist the subscription price of The Times was raised
to $1.5o.
You are reasonable, !lo we,cOunt. on you 'to meet the
necessities of the situation cheerfully. Three cents A
week for your.jocal newspaper—it is worth the price,
is it not?
Less than 'the price of •a "smoke"

A month or so ago as Samuel Cantlon
was working in the bush he was struck
in the left eye by a piece of flying limb.
We are sorry to say the missile penet-
rated the sight of the optic destroying
it, beyorid aoy hopes of repair. The
other eye does nut appear to be affect-
ed, Mr. Cantlon le about 80 years of
age but is a vigorous roan for this
record.
- Another of our higraly respected
pioneers of Morris township, passed
peacefully away at his residence on
Thursday, Nov. 1.6th, in the person of
Garret Maxwell, in his 80th year. De-
ceased was born in Fermanagh, Ireland,
and came to this country at the age of
15 years, settling in Clinton, where he
lived for several years, In 1859 he
married Miss Ellen IVIcEllroV, from
County Down, Ireland, and in 1862 they
moved to Morris, where they resided
until the time of their death. Mr.
Maxwell has been in failing health for
a number of years but was able to go
around until 6 weaks previous to his
death. He was a member of the Angli-
can Church, Belgrave, and a man of in-
dustrious habits and good qualities, was
rnuch esteemed in the community he
lived in and will also be much missed.
His wife predeceased him 5 years ago.
A family of five daughters and one son
survive him, viz:- Mrs. Geo. Kerr,
Brussels; Mrs. F. H. Maxwell, Mrs. D.
Rae and Miss Mary, all of Winnipeg;
Miss Martha E. arid William John at
home.

braith, of Milton, passed away to her
reward. She was about 75 years of
age and is survived by her husband and
12 children. Deceased he a sister-in-law
to Mrs. Jno. Dougherty, 13th Con.
Mrs. Galbraith was a fine woman and
enjoyed the friendship of a wide circle.
We are sorry to hear that Pte. Jos.
A. Killough, of Dungannon, formerly
of this township, who enlisted as a
member of the 161st Battalion, has
been laid up in the military hospital,
Toronto, with a disabled knee. We
hope he will soon be restored to his
customary activity.
The sad news was received here of
the death of Jno. B. Smith, a former
wellknown resident of the 4th Con. of
Grey township, which occured at his
home in Blenheim township, on Thurs-
day last. Deceased had been ill less
than a week from pneumonia. He was
in his 62nd year.
Pte. Smiles, who has been visiting
old friends in this township since his
return from the battle front, is now in
London taking treatment to overcome
the nerve shattering. shell shock. He
gives some Very vivid' descriptions of
what actual warfare really is. We
hope he will soon regain his old time
rugged health.

THE ONLY WAY TO
CUBE RHUEMAJISM
Must Be Treated Through the
Blood ant the Poisorrousl
Actd Driven Out.
The twinges and tortures of rheu-
matisrn are not due to cold, damp
weather as so many people suppose.
Rheumatism comes from poisonous
acid in the blood. This is a medical
truth that every rheumatic sufferer
should realize. There is only one way
to care rheumatism -it must be treated
through the blood. All the linaments
and rubbing and so-called electrical
treatment in the world will not cure
rheumatism, and the sufferer who tries
them is not only wasting money, but is
allowing the trouble to become more
firmly rooted in the system and harder
to cure when the proper remedy is tried.
Dr. Williams Pink Pills have had re-
markable success in curing rheumatism,
because they go right to the root of the
trouble in thetlood, dtiving out the
poisonous acid, releasing the stiffened
joints, clearing away the torturing
pains, and giving the victim renewed
health and ease. Mr. Vincent Brow,
Havre Boucher, N. S., says. "For two
years I was an almost constant sufferer
from rheumatism, the trouble being:so
bad at times that I could scarcely get
about. The trouble seemed to bring
with it anaemia, and altogether I was
in a very bad condition. I used doctor's
medicine for almost a year without re-
lief. Then on the advice of a friend I
decided to try Dr, Williams Pink Pills.
I think I took altogether about a dozen
boxes, with the result that I am again
enjoying perfect health."
You can get these pills through any
medicine dealer or by mail, post paid,
at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50
from The Dr. Williams Medicine Co.,
Brockville. Ont.

LAST WA WANOSH
There passed away on Monday, Nov.
20th, at the home of his son, on the 7th
Concession of East Wawanosh, Samuel
Fells, one of the pioneer residents of
that townehip, after an illness extending

way from London with only a blaze
track from Goderich to the 7th conces-
sion where he took up the farm oii

oxford County where he remained until
1861 when he was married and return-
ed with his bride. Together they
faced the many stern realities of
pioneer life. His wife predeceased

strong constitution and could tell many
a story about the trials and hardships
the early settler had to endure. In
religion deceased was a faithful
member cf the Anglican Church and in
politics a staunch Conservative. Only
one son, Mr. John E. Fells, remains to
mourn his loss, and to whom is extend-
ed the sympathy of the community.
