'I'IPLING FOR MAYOR
To the Electors:
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Afterserving `
the town of 'Wingham
for the past ,eleven :years to the best
of my ability, I am now asking for
your vote and influence to elect nhe
Mayor for 1924. If elected I will, give
you San; Progressive and Econonfil
cal Mnr•i al Legislation.
Owing to illness T was
net able
to
be present at the nomination meeting
and I will be detained in the house the
greater part of this week so that I
may be unable to complete a ,personal
canvas, but I trust my friends will
not loose interest because of my not
being able to see them, but will rally
to my support.
I learn that Mr. Willis has made the
statement that I tried to reduce the
wages of the men employed on the
street, that is not right, and T can
prove it.
Signed Amos Tipling.
The following letter from Brennan
Co. might be of interest to the rate-
payers at this time and speaks for.
itself.
November 23rd, 1923.
Mr. Amos Tipling,
Reeve,
Wingham, Ontario.
Dear Sir:—
We are given to understand you
arew'uuning for public office in Wing -
ham and that: there are rumors that
you set the wages paid to men and
teams employed by us on paving work
in Wingham. This is not a fact and
anyonewho is familiar . with the
amount of work carried on by this
Company and the number of places
we are working at one tune, would
not for a moment believe.,
The wage to be paid by this Com-
pany are " decided by the writer. In
192I and 1922 we were, operating in
Montreal andthe same wages as . ob-
tained in Winghamwere paid. In
1922 we laid about twelve miles of
work for the Ontario Government
near Galt and the same rate of wages
were paid as were paid in Wingham.
The same wages were paid in Paris.
We can go further but believe the
foregoing will give you the informa-
tion desired.
Yours very truly,
W. C. Brennan Contracting Company
Per W. C. Brennan.
TA the Electors of Wingham,
-Ladies and Gentlemen:—
I have never before been so
strongly urged to stand for municipal
office as during the past few days and
feeling that numerous ratepayers de-
sire my services for another year and
also feeling that I owe one town a
duty„ I have decided to again seek
the office of Mayor.
y
My experienceab
ill enable me to
w
give you better service next year. as T
a*a farniliar with the work of both the
Council and Commission.
Should you honor me with election
I can. assure you that the duties of the
office will have the same careful at-
tention in the future as has been giv-
en in. -the past.
I have never made a personal can-
vas, and cannot do so at this time,
but would ask all ratepayers to use
their votes and influenceto secure my
, Your : obedient.. servant.
H. B. Elliott,
Your vote will be appreciated by

auspices. A fairlylarge company of
returned men under Sergt. Gillespie
of Whitechurch, marched to the chur-
ch and front the church to the ceme-
tery, headed by the local brass band,
playing the "Dead March". Rev. Mr.
?McCallum had charge of the services.
The late Mr. Kennedy died at Byon
Sanitarium on Sunday, where he had
been for almost two years suffering
from lung trouble, brought on by be-
ing gassed same .years ago while on
active service in France. Sergt. Ken
nedy was one of four brothers who en-
listed and saw service at the front, all
returning after the war, the others un-
injured. He is survived by his widow
(whom he married in England) and
one daughter three years of age be-
sides his mother, 3 brothers and 3

life near Lucknow. 'He sold his farm
here about eight years ago and moved
to the West, but suffering the stroke
shortly after ,he came back to Luck -
now. He was in his 75th year and is
survived by his widow and five sons
and two daughters. He was a man of
sterling character, and made friends
with all with whore he came in con-
tact. The funeral from the Methodist
Church on Saturday to Greenhill cem-
etery was very largely attended.

Mrs.. Taylor, a Huron County Pioneer
An interesting event took place on
Saturday, November 3rd, at the home
of Mr. and . Mrs, B. H. Taylor, when
his mother, Mrs. Thomas H. Taylor,
celebrated her ninetieth birthday. Mrs.
Taylor, whose maiden name was Mary.
Tenant Anderson, came to Canada,
with her parents from Lanarkshire,
Scotland, at the age of seventeen
years, She was married to the late
Thomas H. Taylor in 1855, with whom
she lived on the farm near Westfield
continuously for sixty-five " years.
Mrs. Taylor, who carne to reside in
Goderich two years ago in company
with her son, suffered a fractured hip
which has prevented her from getting
about inas free a manner as she had
previously' been
accustomed. Tht• u h
readingdailyandweekly the we k y press,
Mrs. Taylor keeps inclose touch with
current events. Besides daily reading
of the Bible she reads on the average
a book a week.' Mrs. Taylor is indeed
one of the pioneers of Huron County.
The Signal extends best wishes and
bespeaks for her continued health and
happiness.

what about your-
Life insurance?
ac HAVE always hesitated
I about increasing my life
insurance because of the responsi-
bility I would have to assume for
the premiums," said a man who
typifies a considerable class.
always pictured myself in some
situation, perhaps disabled through
an . accident, where ' I might be
unable to pay the premiums."
But you may now insure against
this possibilityof future inability
to pay your premiums. For a
small additional charge the Mutual
Life of Canada will issue your
policy subject to a clause which
provides that incase of'`total and;
• permanent disability the Company
will waive further premiums.
That is not all. Upon approval of proofs of disability,
the Company will not only waive future premiums, but
will pay $10 a month per $1,000 of assurance, so long
as total disability continues.
And further, if the policyholder should die by sacci
