Tillson (nee Frances Thompson) of this town arc receiving many messages of congratu­ lations these days on the birth of a son. George Edwin Tillson, who was born on Monday, March 26th. The baby"* birth is surrounded by circumstances of great interest to the town and its past history. He was born on the anniversary of the found­ ing of the town, on March 26th. 1825, by George Tillson, who came from Long Point Settlement, bought 600 acres of land on t he Big Otter Creek, and laid out a village, which is now the town of Tillsonburg. The Same date marked the birthday of the late Edwin D. Tillson, who was instrumental in developing the town and building up a great milling industry. Another un­ usual coincidence is the fact that March 26th. is also the birthday of Mr Edwin V. Tillson, a great uncle of the cljild. and a son of the late E. D. Tillson. At the time of the baby's birth. Mr. E. V. Tillson was having a birthday party, and during the party the birth of the latest member of the family was announced. George Edwin Tillson is the first great grandson of the late E. D. Till­ son, and the fourth "George" in direct line. The Lion's Club had as their guests many prominent dairy farmers from Oxford and Norfolk County at their regular dinner and business meeting in the Royal Hotel last Friday evening. Tlie meeting opned with 'Oh Canada,” followed by grace by Lion Long, and community singing. Following a very delightful chicken supper Mayor Wes­ ton officially welcomed visitors to the Lions Club, and the ben town* in Canada. After the roll caU Lion G. H. Hollier introduced 'he speaker of the evening, Mr. W. f.. Thompson, of Woodstock, who is a very prominent dairjman of the Dominion, president of the Live Stock Improvement As- >ociation, president of the Cattle Breeders' Association and vice-presi­ dent of the Ontario Milk Producers’ Association. The speaker stated that it was with a great deal of pleasure that he had accepted the invitation to come to Tillsonburg. and it was a great inspiration to himself to witness the urban business men and his fellow­ farmers, seated around the same table in brotherly co-operation, to discuss a Some time in the early hours of Monday morning, thieves broke into Reg J. Brookfield's garage, and got away with Mr. C. H. Denton’s Mc­ Laughlin Buick car. Entrance was effected at the rear, and a car belong­ ing to A. Chandler was run out into the alley to give a clearance for Mr. Denton's car, which had been selected from a number of others in the garage at the time. The garage office was also entered and a lot of accessories, oils, etc stolen. Chief Carter immediately sent out notices to towns and cities through­ out the province. On Tuesday morn­ ing Mr. Denton received a telephone call from a farmer's wife residing near Mount Hope informing him that his car had been abandoned on a clay road ...____ _„PFar ‘baJ fann; The car .*,ad b««* vital to the business ’interests identified by the owners license ccr- tificatc and driver's permit which were found in one of the pockets. Mr. Deton left at once for the scene, accompanied by C. S. Hogarth, G. H. Hollier, and P. Barber, and found his car as above stated. It had been stalled on a clay road, and no doubt had been abandoned because of the inability of the thieves to liberate it. A somewhat amusing incident occur­ red in Hamilton, where the party had gone td get something to cat. They were proceeding down the main street when they were overtaken by a police­ man who shoved his revolver in their faces and informed them that they were driving a stolen car. They acknoledgcd the charge, and informed the cop that they were driving a car that had been stolen and recovered. They were obliged to go to the in­ spector’s office where their story was told'and matters soon straightened out. The thieves have been i>art of a gang that had ing out of Brantford, and it is suppos­ ed arc the same ones who had robbed a clothing store in Ingersoll and Cale­ donia the same and following nights. It is supposed that the real clue to their identity was "furnished by R. B. Moulton. On Sunday morning, Mr. Moulton was informed that two men were breaking into his mill, which is idle property, and arriving at the premises had a conversation** with them. But he thought nothing further of the mattes as it had been a com­ mon practice, since highway number three was built for tramps to lake a night's lodging around the premises When Mr. Moulton gave a descrip­ tion of the men to the provincial* police it was at once recognized that they were the well-known criminals that were being sought for the past ten days, and it is now evident that Tillsonburg entertained these mtn over the week-end. It is suspected that the men arc well known to Brantford and vicinity and, should they be ap­ prehended, some recent troubles that have caused a few sleepless nights to provincial and city police will be solved. Chief Stanley and Provincial Officers Milligan and Buchanan arc working on the case. The men sus­ pected are evidently hiding in the day­ time, getting out after dark with the stolen car.On the night of their visit here an atempt was made to enter the cloth­ ing store of N. Harris, Brock street. The padlock that was used as an auxiliary protection was removed, but when it was found that the store was further locked from the inside abandoned the attempt. identified as been opcrat- Official Visit they W. Bro. Jos. Biddle, District Ladies’ Travel Club Mrs. E.

TJjc meetings throughout the winter Jjavc been njfc't interesting and instructive. The Travel studies have been on the British Isles. The program of the final meeting consitc of a clever presenta­ tion of two scenes from Dickens’ Nicholas Nickleby. Mrs. L. R. Black­ wood. read a synopsis of the story leading up to the play. The costumes and stage furnishings were early English, and the parts were played excedingly well under the direction of Miss Winifred Maddock, >who took the leading rolct The other parts were taken by Mr.. Somers. Miss Ellis, Miss Hindson, Mrs. Sidney Luki, .Miss Betty Blackwood. The wholesome humor was greatly enjoyed by all. Contributing to the old English atmoshpere were two group of English folk songs sung by a chorus consisting of Mrs. H. McQueen, Mrs. W. W. McGuire, Mrs. W. C. Brown, Misses Catharine Carr, Gladys Luke and Reta Fields, accompanied bv as Catharine Reekie *t the piano. ity refreshments were served by the hostess. The regular meetings will be resumed in October. R. Deputy Grand Master of Wilson dis­ trict paid an official visit to King Hiram Lodge No. 78, A.F. & A.M., last evening, when a large number of the brethren were present to welcome the distinguished visitors. After the regu­ lar buiness in the lodge room the gathering adjourned to the banquet room, where a splendid banquet was spread under the direction of the Junior Warden, Bro. W. W. IfcGuire. When all had satisfied the wants of the inner-man a splendid toast list was presented as follows, the Worshipful Master, H. F. Johnston presiding:— R. W. Bro. Dr. H. McQueen proposed the toast to Wilson District, which was responded to by Wor. Bro. Anderson, of Port Rowan, District Secretary; King Hiram Lodge, proposed by Mayor Wor. Bro. Dr. 'Weston, re­ sponded to by Wor. Bro. A. S. Rennie; Grand Lodge of Canada in the Prov­ ince of Ontario, proposed by R. W. Bro. W. S. McDonald, and responded to by R. W. Bro. Jos. Biddle of Port Rowan; and visitors, proposed by Wor. Bro. Geo. H. Hollier, responded to by several of the visitors. The pro­ gram was interspersed with community singing led in a commendable manner by Wor. Bro. S. Wood at the piano. The gathering closed with singing of Auld ’ and health of all concerned and he realized that the business men in the smaller towns were far better acquain­ ted and kept in a much, closer touch with the agricultural interests than the business men in the larger centres, and were quicker in recognizing that what benefited the farmer in turn like­ wise benefits the adjoining towns. Mr. G. R. Green, distant agricultural representative, sent his regrets at not being present owing to a previous en­ gagement in Woodstock. Mr. Thompson gave a thorough ex­ planation of the present restricted area campaign, now being carried on in Oxford County to eventually elimin­ ate tuberculosis-affected cows, and all that was necessary at the present time was to convey the correct information to the people, as most of the preesnt objections were coming from those un­informed on the subject. The speaker ex­ hibited several charts relating to accredi­ ted areas, and believe the time was not far distant when the market in sever­ al large centres would be cut off for milk and cream not coming from test­ ed herds. The members of the club were invited to attended further meet­ ings in the campaign to be held in the vicinity of Tillsonburg. Lion Hollier, in introducing Mr. Fred. Lee of Springford, was sure an introduction was out of place, as Mr. Lee was now virtually considered a citizen of Tillsonburg. Mr. Hollier was proud to say that it was the late E. D. Tillson who laid the foundation of Holstien breeding in this section of Canada. Mr. Lee told the Lions Club that it was with much pleasure that he had enjoyed the hospitality of the Lions club and although it had been his privilege to attend a good many banquets in Canada and United States he had never enjoyed a better meal in his life. This was his first visit to the, Tillsonburg Lion's Club; and he had been very deeply impressed at the Christmas season by their endeavors to make everyone in the community happy no matter what the station they held in life. He fully realized that the business men of Tillsonburg were in­ terested enough in the agricultural welfare of the district to be in accord with all matters that would materi­ ally add to their own business. In his opinion the town was very fortunate to have the finest milk plant in the Domnion of Canada, and to have as a resident of the town. Mr. A. H. Terk, Canadian Supt. of The Canadian Milk Products Co., Ltd., and it was now up to the farmers themselves to make this district a profitable location for the Canadian Milk Products Co. Ltd. It was essentially imperative that the cattle in this district be tuberculin tested. J. L. Stansell, ex-member for Elgin County, was unable to be present ow­ ing to the bad roads. A unanimous vole of thanks, moved by Lions Denton and Blackwood, was passed in favor of the speakers and guests, and a very profitable meeting closed with the Lions’ roar led by Lion vanGcel, and the National An­ them.

THE keen edge of a VALET blade slips lightly through pie toughest beards—so sharp—so smooth—that it seems to glide over the most sensitive skins without irritating any of those pet tender spots that every man instinctively favors. After 22 years of experience in making fine razor blades, the Auto Strop Safety Razor Co. Ltd. evolved a new secret process for making a finer blade that takes and keeps a keener, smoother edge. You cannot mistake them for the old style or imitations as each of the new blades bears the AutoStrop craft-mark of quality, “VALET," cut through the blade itself. Do not flinch at tender spots any longer—buy a Valet AutoStrop Rasor to­ day and join the growing millions who are smiling into shaving mirrors every morning. Remember—just a flip of the thumb and “presto"—the VALET AutoStrop Razor becomes a Valet Stropper—the most perfect stropping device known. A few strokes and the edge of the new VALET blade is as keen and as smooth Act to-day—get a “VALET" to uhavu you in the morninj.

HOUSE A Message to Married Men Did you ever stop to think what shape your wife and family would be in financially should you suddenly die? Do you realize that if the total of your estate amounted to $10,00000, that thi* amount of money invested at six per cent would give her one dollar and sixty-four cent* per day to educate the children, pay rent, purchase fuel, food, clothing, light, pay doctor and dentist bills, to *ay nothing of the little lux­ uries that they are accustomed to. If you find it hard to keep the home fire* burning on your salary or income, which is no doubt more than one dollar and sixty-four cents, how do you ex­ pect your good wife to carry on after you are gone, on thi* small amount of money ? Think it over. • We have a plan .whereby you can leave your family well cared foe. simply by paying the interest on the amount of money you feel your family can live on. If vou -should live the alloted period of your contract we will pay you the money, but if by unforeseen cir­ cumstance* ypu should die the day after the contract is signed, we will pay your wife the full sum you desired ner to receive. Let* get together on thi* problem and talk the matter over in a straight biuinesslike way. Phone ut or come to the office and we will be glad to discuss this most important problem. C.H.

Dore, A Well-Known Entertainer Referring to the death in the Mem­ orial Hospital in Tillsonburg of Wil­ liam J. Dore, of 212 Park street north, Hamilton. The Spectator says: "The death of this well known and very popular resident of the city will come as a great shock to his many friends, as, until a short time before his death the late Mr. Dore was in very good health, leaving his home in the city on Monday morning for a business trip to Tillsonburg, where his untimely death occurred. For a number of years he had been traveler for the K. and S. Tire Company, and later with the Seiberling Rubber Company of Canada, Limited, and he had made a host of business acquaintances. He was also a well known entertainer, and until a few years ago had often been heard over the radio, and at various entertainments. He was a member of the Knights of Columbus, and in re­ ligion was a Roman Catholic, a mem her of St. Mary's pro-cathedral. Left to mourn his death, besides his wife, Margaret Warren Dore, arc one daughter, Gladys, at home; two sisters, Mrs. J. Shea and Mrs. . McLauglin, of Hamilton, and a brother, James, of Houston, Texas. Million—Wisson At high noon on April 4th, 1928 at the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Wisson, their youngest daughter, Olive L. was united in marriage to Ralph W. Million of Stoneham, Mass., U.S.A. The bride was becomingly attired in white satin with stockings and slippers to match, and carried a lovely bouquet of roses. The couple were unattended. The room was beautifully decorated for the occasion and a fine buffet lunch was served. The bride's travelling suit was blue taffeta, with coat and hat to match. After a few days spent with the groom's parent*" at Lucknow, and other friends, they will return for a few days when thev will go to their home at Stoneham, Mass., U.S.A.; and will be at home on April 20th to their many friends. The bride is one of Straffordville’s most popular young ladies and she will be much missed by all. The bride received many useful presents from her friends. W. M. Lovegrove was the officiating clergy­ man. On account of bad roads the groom's parents were unable to attend. Peart—Humphrey A wedding of much interest was quietly solemnized in Tillsonburg recently when Eunice M., eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E. B. Hum­ phrey, Cayuga. became the bride of Ros* E. M., only son of Mr. and Mr*. J. Baxter Peart, Cayuga. Rev. W. H. Dunbar performed the ceremony. The »ridc is a member of St. John’s church and a teacher in the Sunday school, a member of the choir and member of the Chancel Guild. The couple spent a short honeymoon at Detroit and are at presnt wilth the bride-groom’s parents at Kohler.

Read by Mrs. McKee at the last meet­ ing of the Springford Women's stitute. “Opportunities for the girl on farm! What a foolish subject I'* person remarked. “Why don't they ask you to write on the disadvantages of farm life fbr a girl?” But the more one thinks of it the more one is con­ vinced that the little girl who is born on the farm has special opportunities. In the first place the little girl has a better chance of coming into the world at all. Unless the mother is in a very isolated part of the country where pre­ natal care and a doctor are impossible the farm woman seldom loses her baby, possibly because good food, fresh air and plenty of exercise are hers for the taking. In the city only the wealthier class can have these advantages. Then, when the little farm girt has arrived safely she has a better chance to live. If the mother cannot nurse her —though the doctors assure us only sick mothers cannot—daddy has cows and he himself can supervise their feeding. And her life is a quiet one— she goes out very little and sees only a few people and so she is not nearly as likely to become the nervdus, excit­ able baby that her little town-bred cousin has become. Her habits arc not disturbed as they might be if her home were more public and she is happy— and her mother is more likely to be happy too. Then, our little farm lassie is much more likely to miss all the children's diseases with their serious results. In the farm home she plays only with her own brothers and sisters—and an occa­sional visitor, in town she is playing with all the children near, not to men­ tion stray cats and dogs—and one never knows when she is absorbing some infection. We all know now that it is not “better to have these diseases when one is a child,” so we count our little girl fortunate that she has a special chance of escaping them. But our children can get from others more serious things than disease germs. Many a mother has learned with horror that her baby not yet of school age has been learning habits .of speech and taints of immorality and untruthful­ ness. The little girl on the farm has no such opportunity—her mother knows her playmates and undesirables arc not invited. Then, too, her life is more carefree— and every child has a right to a few­ years, with nothing to worry her. Be­cause few people see her the mother is not everlastingly worrying over soiled dresses and dirty hands, and the little farmerette can make mud pies to her heart s content. As a rule, too, she- is not in much danger from motors, street cars and trains, and docs not have to be on the lookout for them. Nor does she become a nervous wreck guarding little brother from these dangers. As she grows older, school life begins. It is true she may have a long walk, but I doubt if many do not gain more than they lose by it. In after years she will love to remember the ditches on which she sailed boats, the wild strawberries she picked (and she will smile as she remembers the berries on the hay stem which they carefully carried to the teacher. Poor man. did he eat them, stems and all, or did he quietly thraw them out?) Not for worlds would she forget the bunches of dog­ tooth violets and white triliums she carried home to mother, nor the violet vale where she and the little sister and little friend stopped each night to “play wedding.” Rich little girl, no one can rob her of the memory of those won­ derful evenings "coming home from school.” In the old days perhaps our little farm girl did suffer from the cold din­ ner. In these days of hot lunches that is past. (By the way, have our children a hot lunch? If they have, what arc you women doing to make it what it ought to be? If they haven’t, what are you doing to encourage it? It may be rather a shock to you to know that statistics prove that our lit­ tle country girl is not as likely to be well as is her city cousin. The reason, of course, is the careful attention of the school nurse. Get busy. Institute women, demand medical and dental in­ spection for all school children. Many a child has been considered a dunce whose mind was quite bright—her ad­enoids needed removing. Many a case of rheumatism, St. Vitus dance, weak heart, anaemia and tuberculosis could be prevented by removing diseased ton­ sils. Often medical inspection would reveal this. See that your little farm girl gets the opportunity of growing a strong body. In her school work the little country girl has her opportunity. In the graded school she is helped over every hard place; in the country the busy teacher cannot give her a great deal of attention and the girl learns to help herself. That is why when she starts to high school the country girl almost always leads the class. She has learn­ ed how to work. It isn’t the brilliant .pupils who make the successful men and women—it is the ones who can stick to their work. In these days, with high schools so near, of course our country girl can have a high school education. The cars have made it possible for her to have God Holds the Key ■ I God hold* the key to all unknown, and I am glad; If other hand* *hould hold the key. Or if he trusted it to me, I might be sad. What if tomorrow’s care* were here, without its rest! I’d rather he unlocked the day; And as the hours swing open, say My will i* best.” t The very dimmers of my sight makes me secure; For groping in my misty way, I feel his hand; 1 hear him *ay, My help is sure.” I cannot read his future plans; but thi* I know: I have the smiling of his face, And all the refuge of his grace, While here below. Enough! this covers all my wants, and so I rest I For what I cannot, he can sec, And in his care I saved'shall be, Forever blest. WE CAN MEET YOUR NEEDS The Dominion Natural Gas Co PHONE 122 LIMITED SERVICE Felt More Like Work After Taking Them Say* Ontario Lady After Using Dodd’. Kidney Pill* Mrs. C. Shank Suffered With Back­ ache and Tired Foolin* South Cavuga, Ont., April 2 (Special) —“If I had not started taking Dodd's Kidney Pill* I am sure I should have had to stay in bed,” writes Mrs. C. Shank, a well-known resident of thi* place. “I had no life in me and did not care .whether I worked or not. I am always very busy, having three young children. I would get so tired and would not know how to keep going. After taking Dodd** Kidney Pills I felt more like work. I have great faith in them and always keep them on hand. I can recommend Dodd's Kidney Pill* for backache, I know what they have done for me.” Winter is the season of ill health. Your resistance is lowered through continual cold, chill winds, snow and rain. Unless you keep your vitality up to “concert pitch“ you will surely fall an easy victim to Rheumatism, Colds, Grippe or General Debility. Take Dodd’s Kidney Pills and safeuard your stamina. the best musical education, hear good concerts-or see the best plays. If she lived in the city she would probably often see the poorer type of show; liv­ ing in the country she will go only when something worth while is put on. Then, too, the radio and the daily mail and the public library can make her as well informed as her city.sister. In the city only the wealthy class can afford to develop hobbies, but even the poor girl on the farm can have her hobby. When small she can have her pets: as she grows older she can raise chicken* and grow flowers, or study birds and plants. Doctors arc declar­ ing that nervous breakdowns are being caused by women with god-given in­ stincts to produce being forced to be­ come mere machine*. The country girl then has the chance to develop her own individuality. Then, too, she has another advantage: she spends many of her evening* in her own home and learns to be happy there. In a few years when she becomes a mother and has to remain in in the evenings, she will know how to enjoy herself at home, as she could not if in her early teens and young womanhood slit had “been on the go" every night in the week. Another advantage is hers, too: she will carry into her own home the mem­ ory of a real home. Very often the lit­ tle country girl grows to womanhood on the place where she was born—pos­ sibly it was her father’s birthplace, too. This must have a stabilizing influence on character: to some extent we feel we must live up to the standard set by the old family name and its place in a particular community. Then there is a way in which "her own friends and her father's friends are dear to her as no other friends can be. And this fortunate little girl has memories—memories of the old elm tree at the back door, the lilac bushes at the front gate, the quiet evenings in June when the whole family gathered on the front lawn and enjoyed the rest of the evening. She has memories of the mother sitting by the table darning socks, and some day that memory will help her smile as she darns her own children's; of the father romping with her and the other children on the floor. Perhaps she is especially fortunate and remembers nights when they all gath­ ered round the old piano and sang the song* that will live forever. Let us hope, too, she has memories of all gathering around the fire while ju*t be­ fore bedtime the father read from the book of books and committed them all to the care of the One who “neither slumbers nor sleeps.” If the little girl ha* these memories—and she is much more likely to have them if raised in the country home—then nothing can ever make her really poor. Don't pity our farm girl if she lacks money. The days of John getting the whole farm and Mary a cow and a feather bed arc a thing of the past. And if Mary is ambitious, even if her father is not very generous, she can have her hope chest well filled with the pin money from chickens or bees or home canning or tourists' booths. But her life is so narrow, you say. Need it be? The church needs leaders; the Institute needs them. In these two institutions alone she can develop all her pow-ers of leadership and her musi­ cal, dramatic, or litcrap- talents can all find an outlet. There is simply no limit to the amount of work (and worthwhile work) for leaders in a rural community. The greatest joy in life can come to the girl who is willing to share her life in a country place: that joy is not to grow rich or famous herself but to see that someone else goes out into the world able to do something big and to know that that power came to that other because she helped him to find himself. And when our farm girl is old enough to plan for a home of her own, once again she has a wonderful advantage. Almost always she knows the boys, and knows the stock from which they spmng and can choose the best. She docs not run the risk of marrying a man with a past as does her city cousin. And. once she has made her choice, she has been trained to work in her mother’s home, and is ready to work shoulder to shoulder with the man in the overall* to build another real home. You will notice I have not promised that our girl on the farm will have an easy life. She won’t. She will have toil plain fare and plain clothe*, blistered hands and a tired back. Life will never be easy for her, but the worthwhile people in the world are not asking for easy lives; and the people who have the easy places in life are not the happy people.To the girl on the farm comes no op­ partunity to live an easy life, or one of pride and vanity. But to her there doe* come the opportunity of becoming a part in the productive life, the joy* of expressing herself in her own life and the live* of others. In a very vital sense she has the opportunity of be­coming a Kingdom .— ...e opportunity of be- partner in the building of the of God.

Braeme CHAPTER X Lady Baynham’s dinner-was a very pleasant one. Bertie Carlyon was there, and no one could be dull or listless in his presence. He had the happy faculty of brightening and amusing everyone. He talked gay and agreeable nonsense. The Countess of Bayenham was in one of her most gracious moods. Barbara Earle had her own reasons for trying to make the party a pleasant one, and Lady Hutton never failed in being both agreeable and entertaining. No >nc noticed Hilda’s silence and Claude's depression, except Barbara; nothing ever escaped her. “Mr. Seaton wants Hilda to sit for ber portrait.” said Lady Hutton to her Hostess. "I am quite willing, but I an not decide as to her costume." "The more simple the Lady Bayncham in a low Hutton needs nothing in jrnament." “But," persisted Lady thould like her to represent one of my iarorite characters. I prefer fancy pictures to simple portraits, I am only tuzzled upon which to decide.” "Take my advice,” said the countess, ‘and let Miss Hutton appear as her >wn simple charming self. She will nakc a picture then; do not spoil it >y disguising her as some one else. kVe arc going to Mr. Seaton's tomor- •ow to sec Lady Diana Foreclerc's Kirtrait, will you join us?" Lord Bayncham, who had overheard his conversation, loved the countess »ctter in that moment than he had :vcr done before. He could sec that •he admired Hilda, and she had given lim another opportunity of meeting her. “Yet I must go away," he said to limsclf/ “If I linger here I am lost, may talk to her this evening, and to- norrow I will look upon her face for he last time for many years." For that one evening the young better,” said voice. "Miss the way of 'Hutton, “I DE. THOMAS'V •/ECLECTRIC' »l OIL _ Earle gave himself up to the luxury of talking to Hilda. _ He sat by her while the beautiful music of "Trovatorc" was sung, watching the changes that pass­ ed over her face. "You love music very much. Miss Hutton," he said, for when the exquis­ ite melody of “Ah che la Morte" sounded, he saw that Hilda's eyes were full of tears. "Yes," she replied; “but I am sot quite sure that I really like the opera.* The first time I heard it I was carried away; now it seems too much unreal. How can one sing in the depths of sorrow? If any one I loved dearly were in prison I could not stand out­ side the walls and sing.” - “What would you do?" asked Lord Bayneham.“I would make my way in or die in the attempt," she replied. "Perhaps my taste is not cultivated. We saw 'Norma' the last time. The music is superb; but I could hardly imagine Norma and Adelgisa singing those sweet, sad reproaches. Speech comes naturally in moments of excitement; be they sorrowful or pleasant, speech comes naturally, not song." "Which of all the operas do you like best?" asked Lord Bayncham, amused at her opinions and ideas. "'Norma,'” she replied. "If I were .s unhappy as she was, I should like o die.” In after years those words came back to him, and he knew they had ecn spoken truly. While Claude talked to Hilda, drink­ ing the loveliness of her face and the music of her voice, two persons watch­ ed them. One was Barbara Earle, who read her face that evening; the other was Captain Massey, who loved Lady Hutton's ward more deeply than words can tell. When the last song had died away, and the curtain fell, they rose to leave the house, and Barbara Earle heard Lord Bayncham say, in answer to some remark of Hilda's, “No, I think not. It will, be many years before I come again. The memory of this night will suffice for me." These words told no’new story to Barbara. On the night of the ball, when she first met Hilda, she guessed all that she now knew. •X SMALL QUANTITY J^IN TH^DFUNKING That evening, long after had retired to rest, and a broken silence had fallen house. Barbara Earle stood, pale still, by the window of her room. It was a warm night, and she had opened the window.

Our comrades possess the genuine Soldier spirit. Informed of the need for the presence of two white officers for special work in the Gold Coast, and asked if they were willing to go, they made immediate . response in these words: 'W'e will be more than pleased to go. We are both Salvationists, and are always willing to go anywhere for Jesus I" It took but a comparatively brief time to set the machinery in motion, and now they’re off to the land yrhere native kings arc numbered among our Of fidcry and the population is largely pagan! The Ensign and his brave-hearted wife are both of Canadian stock, enter­ ing the work from Chatham. Ont. They might have been forgiven it they had displayed any apprehen­ sion regarding the long journey be­ fore them, for neither of them has ever been farther away from home than Toronto I The Ensign's commencement in the Army’s work, in which he has thrown himself with such energy and purpose, dates from the year 1910. His consecration and call to the offi­ cership occurred in 1920. Elisha-like he was called from the plough. With Mrs. Bowers, he was first appointed as Probationary-Captain, to God­ erich.

The specific work to which our comrades have been appointed is among vagrant or troublesome boys, who have fallen into the hands of the law. but who, it is felt, arc too young to be sentenced to a jail term. The Gold Coast Government, which is sponsoring the project, has been keenly interested in the Army's In­ dustrial Home for Boys in Nigeria, and this has prompted them to seek our aid in promoting a similar scheme in the Gold Coast. .... periods the boys will remain in the Institution will, of course, vary. Whilst in the Army's care the boys will be taught such useful trades as carpentry, gardening and similar helpful avoca­ tions. It is anticipated that the Institu­ tion will accommodate upwards of fifty boys. Ensign and Mrs. Bowers are delight­ ed with the prospect of working among young people, a phase of work in which they have had an encouraging measure of success in their Corps commands. The tropical climate of the Gold Coast, which al one time was known as "The white man's grave." precludes white people from residing there for any long stretch of time, so that the Ensign and his wife will be granted The Gold Coast was opened in De­ cember. 1922. as a result of the devotion of a native.

After training, he was com­ missioned and sent to his own country, where Army activities have since been cross his face, but he spoke kindly. They went into the library. There was silence for some minutes; then Miss Earle, turning to Lord Bayne­ ham, said: “I want to talk to you, Claude, that is why I asked you to come in here." He waited wonderingly, for he saw her face was full of deep emotion. "Answer me truly,” she said, "what do you love best in the world?—speak truly." “I always do.” said Lord Bayncham. proudly; but you startle me, Barbara.” "If you were to ask me whom I love best in the world," continued Miss Earle, "I should say my betrothed hus- spreading.

From the Gold Coast comes news of continual advance. Village after vil­ lage is being won for Christ. The con­ verts zealously carry the good news of salvation to nearby towns and villages. Recently Commissioner Bullard, inter­ national representative, was received everywhere with unparalleled enthusi­ asm. Towns and villages turned out in mass; chiefs in their regalia, with um­ brellas and drums, received him in state. The scene was indescribable. Tire Com­ missioner says in all his forty-five years’ experience he has seen nothing to equal it. ENSIGN AND MRS. BOWERS The The first Gold Coast officer is, by his fearless methods and Salvationist!), a wonderful inspiration to his comrades. A recently-commissioned officer has erected his own hall; the full amount needed was raised by him in his own district. A hearty welcome is accorded to Army leaders by the various chiefs of the Gold Coast. King Prcmpeh. of Ashanti, gave a donation to the Self Denial Fund, and expressed a desire for the Army to start operations in his district. The prospects arc exceptionally bright.

A few stars gleamed in the quiet night ky; all nature was sleeping; the birds were hushed, the flowers were at rest, and the wind seemed keeping watch over them. The quiet, holy calm sooth­ ed Barbara. The storm had passed— one of wild tempestuous sorrow; but the silence of nature brought rest to her. The world and all in it looked little and mean under the light of the solemn stars. While she stood there Barbara Earle held, as far as mortals can hold, the destiny of three lives. Had her de­cision on this evening been different, her life and other lives would have been changed. She knew now that Claude Bayncham loved another belter than herself. She knew, too, that he was honor itself; he would never seek release from his promise; he would keep it at any risk, and so lose his life’s happiness. There could be no doubht about this. His face changed when he looked upon Hilda; a light she had never seen there before came upon it. His eyes were full of silent hopeless love. She had seen hint turn pale and tremble when Hilda touched his hand. Barbara Earle bit her lips, and a rush of hot angry pride filled her heart, when she re­ membered how he had woed herself. Not so would he speak ol love to the golden-haired girl, whose face was like music. Even at the time she had felt it : but she had comforted herself by thinking that Lord Bayncham was of a calm undemonstrative nature, and that he would love her better when he understood how dearly and deeply she loved him. He had asked her to marry him as coolly and as calmly as he would have asked her to paint him a picture, or sing a song. His whole soul seemed to tremble upon his lips when he said. Good-evening” a few hours ago to Lady Hutton's ward. There could be no mistake about it— Lord Bayneham had learned to love at last; but it was not she who had taught him the lesson. Barbara Earle’s life lay wrecked be­ fore her. She had known no jither love, or hope, or happiness. As long back as she could remember, every thought of her good, noble heart had been given to Claude Bayncham. She had no wish, no plan, no hope, that did not begin and end with him. His future career had been her study for many years. He had great talents, and she longed to sec them usefully em­ ployed, not wasted in dreamy, elegant idleness. Now from that future, which she had so proudly mapped out. she was excluded. Her keen womanly in­ stinct told her that, far from being the brightest hope in Lord Bayncham’s life, she was the one cloud that dark­ ened it. Better anything than that; better that she should suffer, that her life should be blighted, than .he should marry her from duty, and not from love, while his whole.heart was given to another. I love you so well that I have asked you to come here.” Lord Bayncham did not know what reply to make. He was prepared to marry his cousin, to be true and kind, but he had nothing to say about love. The vision of a sweet young face, framed in bright golden hair, came between him and the noble woman by his side. "Claude," continued Barbara, laying her hand gently upon his arm, “I will tell you whom you love best in the world. It is that fair young girl you met in Brynmar woods, Hilda Hutton. You love her as you never have— never can love another.” “I should never have said so," replied Lord Bayncham, sorrowfully. "1 know it," said Barbara; "you would have married me and tried to forget her. I prefer making the sacri­ fice myself, Claude. It would be use­ less," she continued, "for me to affect that I do not love you. As long as I can remember, you have been all the world to me. The strength and depth of my love will be best proved by what I am going to do. Your welfare and happiness arc dearer to me than my own; therefore, I release you from your promise—from all the tics that bind you to me; I give you your free­ dom. You arc at full liberty to love and marry whom you will; and I do this, because 1 love you and wish to sec you happy." "But. Barbara," remonstrated Lord Bayncham. “1 would never have asked for this—1 cannot consent." Even as he spoke Barbara saw a halt flutter of joy in his face, and her own grew paler. "I know that." she said; "but do you think. Claude, I could marry you, knowing full well that you love another? It would be impossible," she continued, for he made no reply; "if you were to kneel and ask me to be your wife 1 would not. I do not'blame you for loving her; she is a thousand times more fair than I; but, loving her, could you be so unjust as to offer to marry me?" "I wish I were dead" cried Lord Bayncham; ” I wish I had died rather than to have brought unhappiness to you. Barbara. I do love you, but in a different way.” "I shall be very unhappy for a little time.” said Miss Earle, sorrowfully; but then I am a brave woman, and brave women have to live down sor­ row. All my happiness will come from seeing yours.”"You arc a noble woman, Barbara," said Lord Bayncham. "You arc as noble as you arc true.” He held both her hands in his. and, for the last time his lips touched her brow, and Barbara grew deadly pale as he did so."Go now,” she said, gently, "and leave me to speak to Lady Bayncham." Claude turned away, he could not have spoken another worcLShe watch­ed him with eyes that grew, dim with tears. How quietly he had taken his dismissal! He had nothing to say. With joy and sorrow strangely mingled in his heart. Lord Bayneham did not then know the value of what he on that morning had lost. With Bunny-Foot shoes you can’t go wrong.

Barbara waited in the drawing-room until her cousin came in. He looked careworn and tired.'as though no sleep had visited him. "I shall soon take that look from his face." thought Barbara, "though I trample upon my own heart in doing so." "Claude," she said, gently, "if you have nothing better to do will you spend half an hour in the library with me?" Poor Barbara! she saw a shadow CHAPTER XI. Deep in Lord Bayncham’s heart there lingered a half feeling of regret for Barbara. Not that he loved her; he had never cared more for her than he did at this nrcsent time. Her true nobility of character struck him, as it had not done before. He could not quite forget her words—so true, so free from all affectation, so full of love for him. While they lingered that day in his cars, he did not seek Hildx Barbara Earle was not one who did anything impcrfectlv. The rest of that day—the one on which she had given her lover his freedom—was spent in her own room. What it cost, no one ever knew. Barbara shut herself up with her sorrow, and spoke not a word of it. The morning after, when she came down to breakfast, there was new beauty in her face, the beauty of calm, serene resolve; the storm had passed over, and all outward trace of it had disappeared. "We arc going to Mr. Seaton's to­ day, aunt,” she said to Lady Baync­ ham. "You said two o'clock. I think. Arc we to call for Lady Hutton?" "No." replied the countess, “we are to meet her at the studio. I hope Miss Hutton’s portrait will be a success; she has an exquisite face; and. Bar­ bara, remind me that we have to call at Store & Mortimer's to sec about the resetting of the diamonds. The Bayneham diamonds are considered amongst the finest in England; you mult wear them on your wedding- day.*’Barbara smiled, and had Lady Bayneham watched her attentively, she would have seen the firm lips quiver as they smile. Claude rose hastily; his face flushed deeply. The countcis, serenely unconscious, con­ tinued her remarks.“I should like to have your portrait, Barbara. Mr. Seaton is one of the first of living artists; we will speak to him about it to-day. We shall be side by side then in the great gallery-” Barbara made no reply. She was thinking of the fair young face that would be next to that of the stately lady before her, while she, Barbara Earle, would never be portrayed as one of that race. Claude walked un­ easily up and down the room, longing to make an end of the painful scene, but not knowing how, . At last, to his intense delight. Lady Bayncham, rose and quitted the room, stiH seren­ ely unconscious of all wrong. "This is intolerable," he cried; "Barbara, I can not forgive myself for allowing you to go through with such a scene. My mother must be told at once." Barbara raised her clear dark eyes to his face, and though the warm tears shone brightly in them, she smiled, and said bravely. "It could not be helped; do not be vexed. Claude. I was won­ dering if diamonds looked well with golden hair. And. that reminds me that time is precious. Take a cousin's advice, and see Miss Hutton to-day. We may still call at Storr & Morti­ mers, you know.” "But, Barbara," said Claude, gently. “I think more of you than you do of yourself.

The Easter message Wilfred M. Mason, Clerk is pre-eminently a message of peace. Easter stands for a living Christ, and j wherever Jesus is there is peace for | the sinner, the tempted, the troubled, and the bereaved. The story is told I that some Koreans were returning from a heathen funeral when they met a Christian funeral pgxecding to the cemetery. One of them said: Why ts it that those Chistians are not wailing and making the fuss we do at our fun­ erals?" “Ah, do you not know." was the reply, "they get their dead back again." This was the experience of the disciples, with all it implied of peace and joy. Thank God, it is ours also. HYMN _ "Come, ye saints, look here and wonder.

Upon their souls was the burden of shame and remorse that they had forsaken Him in His hour of need. They were tom by doubts and fears, scarcely daring to believe the strange tidings brought by Mary, and Peter, and John. Then Jesus himself stood in the midst of them speak­ ing the words which had brought such comfort to their hearts in scenes—the audience chamber of Pon­ tius Pilate, the watch over the tomb, the women at the sepulchre, and the disciples at the sepulchre. Especial mention should be made of the parts played by Miss Ruth Eitel as Mary- Magdalene. Misses Margaret Thomson and Phyllis Taylor, who were the angels who appeared in the sepulchre. Mack Hewer as Pilate, Douglas Ander­ son a» Joseph of Arimathea, and Reg­ inald Kennedy. Elmer Seeley and Grant Sherwood, who were Roman sol­ diers. The elaborate costumes, the sub­ dued lighting, the rich background of music and the brilliant incidental illum­ ination of the sepulchre combined to produce an impressive spectacle, and impressed the congregation with its un­ derlying spirit of reverence.

In Memoriam In loving memory of Dewey Pritch­ ard, who passed away at Battle Creek, Michigan,- April 7th, 1926, aged 22 years. Two years have passed, yet time does not heal The pain in our hearts and the sorrow we feel; When our minds wander back it seems but a day That he brightened our home, a child at play. When time wore on. a man he became, Still in our hearts he remained the same. The grief that it gave us, no tongue can tell, When he passed out so sudden with no fond farewell. —Sadly remembered by parents. LUMBER FOR SALE (Special orders promptly filled. Custom sawing.—W. G.

Call up your customers by long distance An occasional call will make ft almost impossible for them to stop trading with you. Do you realize that one of the largest returns you can se­cure fro® the expenditure of a small sum is to be had by calling up old customers occasionally by Long Dis­ tance? Friendliness begets friendli­ness. How can you or I keep away from a merchant who spends his money to show his interest in our affairs? We can't. The newspaper editor counts on this trait in human nature. He mentions sub­ scribers' names frequently, because he knows they will look for them in his paper. The merchant who occasion­ ally calls customers by Long Distance is one who can’t ba overlooked or forgotten. :---------- ; I GOSHEN i Mr. and Mr*.
