On Sunday at Roxboro there pass-

78th year, a life-long and well known
resident of McKillop Township. For
quite e -few years Mr. 'McMillan had
charge of rural mail route No. 1,
Seaforth, giving up his work several
years ago. During the summer of
1929 he met with an accident while
cutting weeds along the ditch when
he tripped and received a deep gash
in his leg from the scythe he was
using, which caused a great loss of
blood. Following this unfortunate
mishap he was never well again. Mr.
McMillan was born on the third con-
cession of McKillop within sight of
his late home at Roxboro corner, He
was a son of the late Robert :McMil-

place in 1vIaitlandbank cemetery, the
pallbearers being Messrs. John Gill-
espie, James Gillespie, Robert Gar -

A NC* Habit
There's a reason for everything.
Mrs. Brown's son, Fred, awi
ay n the
big city, never would write regularly.
He was a constant anxiety ta his mo-
ther. But lately he has formed the,
habit of telephoning every Sunday ev-
ening! Her friends say Mrs. 13rown
looks better then she has done for
Years. Wonderful what a difference
that weekly chat has made for her.

OF GOOD REPORT
The following is an editorial from
the "Beacon -Herald" in the neighbor -
sag city of ,Stratford, anent the new
industry which is coming to Seaforth
and will locate in the factory on
Main street recently purchased from
the Seaforth Holding Syndicate:
"During the week the Beacon -Her-
ald received an unsigned letter in re-
gard to the removal of the Avon
Chest Co. from this eity to Seaforth.
The letter expessed the view that
'something should have been done,
and that if the citizens were awake
the plant would have stayed in Strat-
ford.'
"There was a great deal done in
trying to sectire premises for the com-
pany here which would have given
the needed room, There was no idea
of allowing the company to leave here
without an effort to retain the indus-
try. Avon Chests is a highly regard-
ed industry locally, and the princip-
als in the concern ere just such
people as Stratford would like to re-
tain.
"Plans were submitted for enlarg-
ing the premises, and these were of a
very favorable nature regarding fin-
ancing, etc., but the terms on which
a suitable plant was offered in Sea -
forth were such that they could not
be duplicated here.
"Men interested in keeping the in-
dustry here spent hours on these
plans, and they were 'wide awake' to
the situation. We believe it is only
right that reference should be made
here to this case to correct anY im-
pression that might exist that matters
were allowed to drift tmtil the indus-
try decided to leave the city.
'Although the Beacon-illerald, in
common with citizens in general re-
grets the departure af Avon Chests
from this city, we wish the company
every success in Seaforth. The firm
is going to a good town with good
citizens, and Seaforth can be assured
that it is dealing with men who are
honorable in their methods and who
manufalcture an excellent article."
