The money for the memorial was raised through gifts of members of the parish, along with other friends. The in- scription, written in French, says, "Gifts of the parishioners former members of :the parish, and others, in memdry of Rev. Brother Andre, who lived for some time among us." The Cantin family, of St. Joseph, with whom Brother Andre visited, spear- headed the drive to build the memorial. In the weekly news budget of St. Joseph, the correspondent, Alfred Ducharme, is currently telling of the visits of Brother Andre to the St. Joseph Parish, in 1917 and 1922. predictionsas to the future. Lake Huron, all remained dor- mant. Occasionally when you would meet with members of the Cantin family they were The passing weather is injurious to field plants and grain crops. No one can tell when such will cease; no one is able to give warning on days ahead to safe- guard the crops or anything which could be destroyed by broken weather. Settlers in the primitive days of this part of Western Ontario had accepted weather signs from their ancestors. One which fits well for this passing month of August is that any month with five Sundays is a wet month with much broken weather which causes much delay in farm work and as well is detri- mental to crops in the passing of time. Cycles create such events and sometimes last as long as three months. Nothing so far has been invented to prevent it. Let us hope we are not being witnesses to such a destructive period of time which could cur- tail the posperity of those af- fected. This weather forecasting of our early pioneers is a heritage from their ancestors, They did not only have a month with five Sundays to determine the weather, but they also watched the clouds drifting in the space with an opposite wind pushing then. That meant a storm was in the air. If it was cloudy, that meant rain. If the sky was reddish in the southwest, that meant nice weather. They had many other signs which many times proved cor- rect. Then they would make their plans for the few days ahead. Look at your calendar for this passing month of August with its five, Sundays. We have had wet and disagreeable weather and so far true to the latter. When predicting rain for a month of five Sundays they did not mean a daily downpour—no. But broken weather such as this passing month of August has had and we are convinced.

Forty years or more past on when Joseph Cantin, a son of the founder of St. Joseph, was inspired or perhaps felt that justice had not been given to the Brother and started a cam- paign to raise funds to erect a statue of St. Joseph and Broth- er Andre in one, on the church ground. It was on April 8, 1955, Easter Eve, that he asked the approval of Father Poisson and was granted it. Already Mr. Cantin had many envelopes well -word- ed and asked permission from Father Poisson to have ushers distribute them at all Easter masses. Great was the re- sponse.
