OUR CORNER
ZURICH LOSES VALUED. CITIZEN
In the passing of Dr. T. Routledge,
V. S., at his home in Zurich, on
Saturday, the community loses a
highly esteemed and valued citizen.
Tleis known far and near as an out-
standing Veterinarian, his chosen',
proffession, always a feeling for the
suffering Land distressed animals un-
der his care, and thereby was the
means •of 'seeing many a life of the
live ,stock :of farmers far and wide.
For 22 years at Dashwood and the
past 16 years at Zurich he gave his
services liberally, never a storm too
severe, or a night too cold to go out
when called. A. very pleasant man to
meet in every day life, truly we
could not find a more likeable man
ina day's travelling. Having enjoy-
ed health till a few days previous to
his departure, we all hoped he would
rally again, but the Master saw it
otherwiise, and this fine character,
well worthy of comment should be
an example to all of us. lend such
is life, the . departed has only gone
on to eternal bliss a little while be-
fore the most of us.
A "COSTLY" MISTAKE
In a recent article about a trip to
Chicago and the World's Fair, . we
notice a "costly" typographical error
,when we stated that the journey con-
sisted of 869% miles with a gasoline
account of $812. this of course sho-
uld have been $3.12, which looks
more reasonable and would suit the
pocketbook Of your publisher much
more readily. Some of our readers
Have drawn our attention to the r•„s-
tahe, and we notice.' one of our co-
upty town :editors took •4t- to heart;
hind stated that if he goes to Chic-
ago to the big Fair he will, take the
train instead of running up:a. gas Mill
of $8.12., well, we don't blame him,
for that, but he continues that this
mista°ie will likely be corrected but
the damage has been done. Thanks
for ,-Riding our colinnus, Mr. W. 11.

Again over the week -end we not-

ed people will try and drive them at
that speed, almost three times the
speed limit of our fair Province. We'
must always bear- in mind that with:
this excessive speed and careless
driving, that behind it lurke the cold
and paralyzing hand of death and
injury to limb and body, not to the,
driver alone, but also to other neoel.e`
who happen along the way of the,
speed demon. Just try it and take
ten- of fifteen minutes more time, in
running to the city and see how
much better you as well as your pas=
