You were - al- ways willing to help us when an Op- portunity .arose to do so, also in many local undertakings you 'set a fine ex- ample for us to follow, Especially do we mention the Red Cross where your many generous donations were great- ly appreciated. We shall also miss your friendly happy smile, George, as you dropped in to. visit us or to help out when we got behind with our work. As the days pass We shall miss you more, and 'more. We all deeply regretted that you decided to leave the London' Road, but are glad you are so comfortably settled here. May God grant that you may be long spar= ed to enjoy it. We shall always feel that we have friends in Clinton and we hope that whenever the opportun- ity comes for you to visit us that you will -not -hesitate.' We wish to express in a tangible way our good wishes, so- we ask you 'to accept these gifts, not for their value, but for the good wish- es they express.—Signed on behalf of your London Road neigh'bor's." • MONUMENTS Balmoral and Beers Reds, Blarrk Swede (Imported) also a fine line of American Stones an hand.

YES—the Bray Hatcheries have chicks for sale, in spite of a, deluge of orders. Not, perhaps, in the breed that's your first choice. Not, perhaps, in the Xtra -Profit grade. But . Bray Chicks of the usual' high Bray quality . . " Mind you, that's not saying that the breed and grade you want aren't available. Very probably they are. But demand is 'uneven. In some breeds it is so heavy that the Bray Hatcheries are booked ahead—in those breeds—for weeks. In others even last-minute orders can be filled, for both day-old and started chicks. - , NAME YOUR SECOND CHOICE So when you order your Bray Chick's, dame your second choice ... even your third choice, if possible ... on breed, grade, and date of 'shipment.. It may prevent delay and disappointment. All Bray breeds have the same backing of skill and care behind them, so you will probably be pleased with the re- sults you get, even if 'the breed isn't the one you ordinarily order.
