Stood for Business Integrity Among the Tillsonburg Industries. < A business transaction of much in­ terest to local and district citizens was consummated on Monday when the Darrow Iron Works on Brock street was purchased by the Tillsonburg Gray Iron Foundry Company, composed of Woodstock citizen* who have had many years of experience in the busi­ ness. the principals being Alfred Schlimme, William Bossencc, Charles Parsons and James G. Murray, and the three married men will move their families to Tillsonburg in a few weeks time. The business was one of the very first to be located in the town, and for the past 46 years has been con­ ducted by Mr. John Darrow, Sr., and the past few years assisted by hi* two son*, Roy and Jack. The business wa* completely burned out in the disastrous fire that wiped out the block in which it was situated, yet in eleven days af­ terwards castings were being made in a temporary building erected on the site. The building destroyed was for many years the old stage barn, which was the stopping place on the old plank road between Ingersoll and Tillson­ burg. The former proprietor had established a plow business throughout Ontario with an enviable reputation, being able to supply parts for several makes of plows long out of existence, and the new concern will continue this ynd of the business a*.well as adding several new line* of manufacture. Several changes and improvements arc contemplated in the near future that will double the present capacity of the plant, and at the present time there is a large tonnage of orders for Ontario points on hand, which assures a busy spring and summer business. The many old customers will be pleased to lebrn that Mr. John Darrow. Sr., will be found with the new firm in the re­ pair department, looking after the plow | work and acquainting the new propri- | ctors with the district customers.

I.O.O.F.. last Monday was an event of more than usual interest be­ cause of the fact that the surprise committee had arranged a program of more than ordinary merit. Just what it was to consist of was kept a secret from the member* until it was sprung on them by the committee. The sec­ ond degree team of Samaritan Lodge, Ingersoll had been invited to exemplify the work of that degree, and they came over in full strength, accompanied by several other members of that live hylge. This degree team has an envi­ able reputation for the excellence of its work, and on this occasion it lost nothing in that respect. The degree was put on in a most finished manner, which brought forth the admiration of all who witnessed it. After the work had been concluded an adjournment was made to the banquet room, where a sumptuous lunch was partaken ot, after which the brethren reassembled in the lodge room and an excellent pro­ gram of music, speeches, etc., was gone through with under the direction of Mr. Frank Norman, chairman of the committee. Speeches were made by several of the visiting and local breth­ ren. including a very able address °n Oddfellowship by Bro. A. S. Rennie, Grand Warden. Among the visitors from Ingersoll was the veteran mem­ ber of the order, Mr. James Sinclair, who has been a member of Samaritan Lodge 66 years, and is still an enthusi­ astic Oddfellow. Another veteran who was present was Mr. John \\. Hopkins of Brownsville, who gave a very inter­ esting talk on the British Empire. sceptical of its value to the communitv.

A bulwark of the ad­ ministration of justice in Canada was found in the Grand and Petit Juries. These provided a fair trial by his peers for every person on trial for his life and liberty. Hence, if the best and most brainy men of a community were to be exempted from jury service merely on the ground of business it could be easily seen to where it might lead. It might result in a decent, re­ spectable citizen being placed on trial and al the mercy of a jury composed of men not his peers.

In January the Workmen's Compen­ sation Board awarded over half a mil­ lion dollars in benefits for accidents in this Province, was 5538,374X1, of which was for compensation and for medical aid and hospital service?' The figures are over $113,000 higher than in the same month in 1926. Dur­ ing the month there were 5293 acci- dent* reported to the Board, which in- an Alberta farm. These trees were planted in 1922 and the photograph was eluded 29 fatal cases. This i* some-1 ' ' * ................ what lower than December. 1926. when there were 5.411 accident* reported, including 34 fatalities. Speaking of these figure*. R- B. Morley. General Manager of the In­ dustrial Accident Prevention Associ­ ations. called attention to the fact that death cases and other seriou* acci­ dents had recently shown an upward trend. He referred particularly to a case where a worker, while applying belt dressing, wa* drawn into the pul­ ley and killed, owing to the sweater he was wearing being caught on the line shaft. Another accident resulted in death by burning owing to handling of gasoline in an unsafe manner. Two other recent fatalities in industry were attributed to blood poisoning following very slight cuts. Mr. Morley called at­ tention to the need for competent first aid for all cuts and scratches, no mat­ ter how sl’ght. taken during the summer of 1926. Note the fine garden and homelike appear­ ance of the surroundings. the total number of trees sent out has been a little over 87.500.000. The resulting plantations arc not part of a woodlot scheme, the trees being usually set in strips or shelter- bells about the farm buildings, but a new idea is gained of the extent of the work when it is learned that the 1926 plantations covered a little over 2.000 acres, and that the total plantings made since the inauguration of the scheme exceed in extent 32.000 acres. Thirty-two thou-.-.nd acres represents' an area of fifty square mites or nearly a township and a hail. Tlic plantations the scheme has worked is indicated by the fact that under the influence of these eighty thousand original planta­ tions the general appearance of the prairie in many sections is gradually changing ami on all sides there are splendid examples of cosy farm homes, set'amid well planned shelter-belts and surrounded by gardens containing bush and tree fruits. It has been demon- 'trated that, by breaking the force of high winds and by conserving moisture, shelter-belts increase the production of the farm but they return a dividend hundred-fold greater in the increased referred to. it grouped thus by them- comfort and enjoyment afforded by selves, would form but a small patch in them to the fanner and his household.

The Middleton township council, at its last session, did a wise act when it decided to take out an insurance policy to protect them from actions for dam­ ages in connection with accidents on the roads of the township. This win­ ter particularly the roads have been in a dangerous condition throughout the entire season on account of the ice. and the precaution taken by the Mid­ dleton council i» worthy of commen­ dation.It would also be good business on I the part of the town council to do like-। wise. The Barrie town council has I adopted that policy in the past, and the Barrie Examiner in advising a re­ newal of the tmlicy for insurance, says: "Last year the company paid two claim, of $ioo each. These two to­ gether were 5130 less than the amount of the premium, yet a single serious accident might make the town liable j for ten times the premium if such in-1 surancc were not carried. It is a won-| dcr that there havj?uot been several claim, this year already, notwith­ standing the expenditure of twice the otdinary sum in sanding the streets.” slated, will provide that the legal speed limit for automobiles be raised from 25 miles an hour to 35 miles an hour, that motor vehicles be brought to a full stop before entering a through high­ way from a cross road, and that horse- drawn vehicles as well as motor- driven ones display lights on the roads at night. Barrie Examiner: The Barrie Board of Health has been urging parents to have their children treated with toxoid to immunize them from diphtheria. Administration of toxoid by competent physicians, coupled with a campaign of education, has slashed the diphtheria death rate in every centre where it has been generally undertaken. .According to the last report of the Calgary Board of Health, its nearly cornj^etc disap­ pearance from that city during the past twelve months was the outstanding feature of the health records of the past year. The two reasons above re­ ferred to are given as the causes of this improvement. beautification, and it is hoped that the interest of the citizens gcneraJU’ will be shown in entering upon this com­ petition with enthusiasm. Entries are to be made when taking out 1927 mem­ bership in the Amherstburg Horticul­ tural Society. One of the good things of the times, says an exchange, is the evidence of a better understanding between the town people and the country people. Relationship is becoming closer. The automobile and the telephone and the rural mail route have done much of the work of levelling prejudice. The auto- mobil^has enabled coming and going to be more frequent. Before the arri­ val of the motor car visitations back and forth were events. To come to town by horse vehicle from only a few | Bran, per ton . miles away meant the spending of •>-’ •«" whole day. and so the time could not often Ik- afforded. Today only an hour or two accomplishes the same purpose and a run to town or to country is the common thing. The Sun Life .Assurance Company of Canada continues to eclipse its own transcendent records. At the annual meeting for 1927 which has just been held. President T. B. Macaulay was able to report that the total business paid for in 1926 amounted to $265,889.- 546. double that of 1924-only two year* ago. The a surances in force now exceed one and a quarter billions of dollars. The Sun Life has become much more than our greatest Canadian company. It is one of the leading Life Insurance companies of the world. Its growth is equally arresting whether compared with its own record or with the totals of insurance on this continent. The increase of its business at risk in 1926 is greater than the entire business car­ried by the Sun Life at the outbreak of the war. It has now more business in force than the total life assurance in force in all Canada, with all companies, Canadian and foreign, when war was declared. Latest reports indicate that the general increase in life insurance secured during 1926 in the United States and Canada is six per cent, in excess of 1925. The Sun Life’s increase for the year is 37% per cent.The high rate of interest earned enable, the Company to distribute profits on the assumption of 3% per cent, per annum being earned on the Reserves. The same rite of interest is being allotted to beneficiaries on the proceeds of matured endowments and death claims left with the Company. In this way again, policyholders are par­ ticipating in the great prosperity of the Company.

MEDITATION Text: Psalm 39: 11: “Thou makest his beauty to consume away like a moth." The figure of speech here u»ed it capable of tw© interpretation*. In one interpretation, a man stricken with disease at the height of his physical strength, is likened to a beautiful moth that is scorched and shrivelled by the flame. Another interpretation change* the figure to that of a costly garment. ruined by the ravages of a moth. Whichever one you choose, the mean­ ing is the same, namely, that human strength and beauty are liable at any time to be consumed away by disease and death. Probably the Psalmist ha* reference to his own bitter experience as he suffered a long and wasting ill­ ness. which brought him to the brink of the grave. We are living in an age when great stress is laid upon the fleshly attribute* of physical strength and beauty. At the same time, far too little attention is given to the cultiva­ tion of beauty of soul and strength of Character. This sort of beauty is never consumed away like the moth no mat­ ter how the power* of disease may con­ quer the body. In fact, affliction but serves to enhance and bring into relief that very beauty of spirit referred to. Suffering thus has it* compensation, in the refinement and glorifying of the soul. Should physical beauty depart with the passing years, or under the consuming flame of disease, may *e not grow embittered or discouraged. May we yield ourselves to the will of God. striving to utilize every help that He has placed at our disposal, that there may be wrought in us a fadeless beauty of life and character that will find it* perfection in the presence of our Lord. How sad a fate is his who has not this beauty of the Lord, when his earthly beauty is consumed away like a moth. HYMN “Make haste. O man. to live.

Why did he look so much Hke a death'* head when he brought you back to us; and I why have you been weeping »o much? | Tell your mother," said the lady, lead­ ing the maiden to the sofa, and embrac­ing her. Maud threw herself upon her mother's bosom, and wept heartily be­fore she answered. '-■* *’ Hunter repeated the plied: "Oh. mother, dear understand it at all. ....... ... that Falconer is very, very wretched, and behaves in a manner that is as in- comprehensible as it is torturing to us both." "In what manner does he behave, my dear? What docs he »ay? What doc* het say? What doc* he do? He must be very mistaken and very un­ reasonable." "Oh. mamma, I could not explain it to you. because I do not comprehend it myself, only I feel that we are just now both very miserable, and that I am un­ grateful, dear mother, in not being per­ fectly happy with you and my best father." "My love, tell me all that pasted be­ tween yourself and Falconer, and I shall be better able to judge." "Well, dear mother. I will; listen." said Maud, beginning, and telling the lady word for word the whole of the short but significant conversation be­ tween herself and her wild lover. In conclusion, she said. "Now. dear mother, what can any one make of »ueh conduct? just at the very moment I assured lihu that 1 considered myself bound to him, that he should have changed in such a deathly way, and left me so abruptly." The lady sat in thought for a few moment*, and then a smile came over her face and embracing her daughter, she said: “I see it all. my love! There is a misunderstanding between you. You were speaking at cross purpose*." "How. dearest mother?” “Why. thus: it is clear enough tn me; he has heard of a silly rumor of your being engaged to Percival." "Is there such a rumor, mamma? Oh. 1 am very much mortified I" "Yes. there is such a report, my dear. I have contradicted it wher­ ever I heard it. Yet it still prevails." "1 am very sorry! And that unhappy Falconer has heard it" "Undoubtedly, and he was talking about your rumored engagement to Percival, while you were thinking only of your pledge to himself! That ex­ plains his wretchedness.” “But, mamma,” said Maud, gravely, “it is impossible that Falconer could, for an instant, entertain the idea of my being so false I No, do, mamma I Fal­ coner never, never thought so ill of And when Mrs. question, she rc- mother.

His judgment is blinded by his passions." "And. oh. mamma! could Falconer believe that I could be a traitor to my life-long love, and engage myself to another?" 'It is evident that he did so, my child; and that he understood you to confess such an engagement." "Oh, how could Falconer? How could he? Oh. mamma, let us un­ deceive him! Oh. mamma I tell me how 1 can undeceive him at once!- 'said Maud, clasping her hands. The lady drew her to her bosom, and gravely and sweetly answered : "My dear child must not move in this matter at all. It docs not become her to do so. Besides, it would do no good, my love; it would do harm. Falconer must be left to suffer some of the painful consequence* of hi* own mad passion* and rash acts, before he will ever think it necessary to bring them into subjection to his reason and conscience. It will not do always to interfere to counteract the wholesome discipline of suffering."“But. oh. mamma! is not this a dan­ gerous thing? He is so wretched!

I loved him as much as 1 thought it was possible for heart to love. And every advancing year I have loved him better and belter.

Maud; who has ever escaped them? We have had bitter political enemies; we have been envied, hated, slandered; our best action* ascribed to the worst motives; our most earnest purpose* often thwarted, our brightest hope* often darkened.

And early in May the young pair, with their in­ fant brood, migrated thither.Letty Hunter accompanied them, to help lake care of the children, she said.

There came a tap at the door; she knew her mother's signal, and arose | and opened it. I “Now, I have come to have a talk with you. child; now tell me what it is between you and Falconer? Why did he look so much like a death's head when he brought you back to us; and why have you been weeping so much? I Tell your mother,” said the lady, lead- | ing the maiden to the sofa, and embrac­ ing her. Maud threw herself upon her mother's bosom, and wept heartily be­ fore she answered. And when Mrs. Hunter repeated the questton. she re­ plied : “Oh. mother, dear mother. I do not understand it at all. AU I do know i*. that Falconer is very, very wretched, and behaves in a manner that is as in­ comprehensible as it is torturing to us both." “In what manner docs he behave, my dear? What does he say? What does he say? What docs he do? He must be very mistaken and very un­ reasonable." “Oh. niarnma. I could not explain it to you. because I do not comprehend it myself, only I foci that we are just now both very miserable, and that I am un­ grateful, dear mother, in not being per­ fectly happy with you and my best father. "My love, tell me all that passed be­ tween yourself and Falconer, and I shall be belter able to judge." “Well, dear mother, I will; listen,” said Maud, beginning, and telling the lady word for word the whole of the short but significant conversation be­ tween herself and her wild lover. In conclusion, she said, “Now, dear mother, what can any one make of such conduct? just at the very moment I assured him that I considered myself bound to him, that he should have changed in such a deathly way, and left me «o abruptly." The lady sat in thought for moments, and then a smile came over her face and embracing her daughter, she said: “I sec it all. my love! There misunderstanding between you. were speaking at cross purposes." “How. dearest mother?" “Why. thus: it is clear enough me; he has heard of a silly rumor of your being engaged to Percival.” “Is there such a rumor, mamma? Oh. J am very much mortified I” ■'Yes, there is such a report, my dear. I have contradicted it wher­ ever I heard it. Yet it still prevails.” "I am very sorry I And that unhappy Falconer has heard it." "Undoubtedly, and he was talking aliout your rumored engagement to Percival, while you were thinking only of your pledge to himself I That ex­ plains his wretchedness.” “But, mamma,” said Maud, gravely, “it is impossible that Falconer could, for an instant, entertain the idea of my being so false I No, no, mammal Fal­ coner never, never thought so ill of few is a to tiplied and all the sorrow* of her life will be comforted.

Cincinnati!*. the March winds were stillWhile piping, Daniel Hunter and his family once more sought their too often for­ saken home at Howlct Hall. Mr. Hun­ ter immediately turned his attention toward the carrying on of those incom- Cete works of improvement that year* fore, under his favorable auspices, had been commenced in that section of country. The new parsonage, designed and built by Mr. Hunter at the Summit for the Levels, was now completely fin­ ished and comfortably furnished, and ready to receive its tenants. And early in May the young pair, with their in­ fant brood, migrated thither. Letty Hunter accompanied them, to Stake care of the children, she Had Letty only consulted her own comfort, convenience and happi­ ness she would certainly have preferred to remain with her almost adored brother and his beloved wife and daughter at Howlet Hall; for, though of all his sisters and brothers, Letty, in character and disposition, least re­ sembled Daniel Hunter, she had the truest appreciation and highest admi­ ration of hi* character, and warmest sympathy with his thoughts, feelings and purposes, and she was always hap­ piest when forming one of hi* blessed household. But from her youth up. Letty Hunter had been the cheerful little Cinderella—the singing little goody-two-shoes of her family—and had always merrily resigned her own interests and inclination* to the neces­ sities or the exactions of others, as if •uch self-sacrifice had been the most Batura! thing in the world, and the fin­ est tun “alive." I hinted before that Letty, like everybody else in the world lad had her own particular trial, and it was briefly this: About the time that Mr Lovel came courting her sister Lucy, Letty* also had a lover, in every way most worthy of the love which she gave him without measure. He was a poor and struggling son of the people. Tint did not matter to Letty. except that it made her love him all the more His small business lay in a distant western village — that did not matter, cither; Letty would have gone with him to Kamschatka or to Terra-del- forgo. But. alas! all her brothers and sisters were married and gone except Lucy and herself, and if they also married, their old parents would bc left alone; and as the idea of making a sac­ rifice for others had never once added the brain of the petted beauty, Lucy, nothing remained but for Letty to re­ sign her lover, which she quietly did. And. disappointed and dejected, he departed for his western home, while she remained the light and warmth and comfort of her father's and her mother's fireside. And she jested and sang as much as ever, though for a time she grew: thin and pale; and when they prescribed boneset and wild Minute* of regular meeting of South Norwich Council held in community hall, Otterville, February 7th„ at 10 o'dock All the members present.

And to the day of their death, her aged parents never sus­ pected it. And when the venerable pair were gathered to their fathers, Letty found great comfort in the thought that she had remained with them, and had cherished and supported them to the very last, and that they never had imagined how much it had cost her. Letty was now thirty-three year, of age. and looking older and dressing older, yet not feeling older than that. The love of her youth still • lived m her heart, and kept it young. That is sometimes a Nessmg, but oftener a curse to its subject. It is a blessing when joined to a strong mind I —a curse when linked with a weak one . In the former ca*e it will make its sub­ ject sympathetic and attractive—in the latter it will make him or her only affected and ridiculous. It made Letty wiser, more losing. n.ore sympathizing with the young, while it muled her into no youthful affection*.

Hi* judgment is blinded by hi* passion*." “And. oh. mamma! could Falconer believe that I could be a traitor to my life-long love, and engage myself to another?" 'It it evident that he did so, my child; and that he understood you to confess such an engagement.** “Oh, how could Falconer? How could he? Oh. mamma, let u* un­ deceive him I Oh, mamma! tell me how I can undeceive him at once!' 'said Maud, clasping her hands. The lady drew her to her bosoin, and gravely and sweetly answered: “My dear child must not move in this matter at all. It doe* not become her to do »o. Beside*, it would do no good, my love; it would do harm. Falconer mutt bc left to suffer some of the painful consequence* of hit own mad passions and rath acts, before he will ever think it necessary to bring them into subjection 4o his reason and conscience. It will not do always to interfere to counteract the wholesome discipline of suffering.” "But. oh. mamma! is not this a dan­ gerous thing? He is so wretched! What if in hi* anguish and despair he should ruin himself, as I have heard of others doing? What if he should be tost to u* forever?” "He will not! Your father, love, watches over hin^sith the affectionate interest of a parent. Your father will prevent his coming to evil, and ensure hi* coming to good." “My dearest, dearest father! Oh. mamma! my undivided heart—my whole life, devoted solely to him, would not repay him for all we owe him!” "Hush, lovel It is irreligious even to talk of repaying him. Can we repay our Heavenly Father for all we owe Him?" "And the greatest blessing our Heavenly Father has given us, mamma, is my earthly father I" "Yes, Maud I Yes. love, for there is none like him in the world. Daniel Hunter was always good and great beyond other men. And every advanc­ ing year he has grown better and greater. When we were young. Maud. 1 loved him as much a* I thought it was possible for heart to love. And every advancing year I have loved him better and better. And now that we are growing old. I love him best of all!" said Augusta, with tear* of deep joy welling in her eye*.Then, after a little while, she said: “Wc have had trials and sorrow*. Maud; who hss ever escaped them? We have had biKer political enemies; we have been envied, hated, slandered; our best actions ascribed to the worst motives; our most earnest purposes often thwarted, our brightest hope* often darkened.

The new policies paid for. . . . almost double the figures of two years ago. The assurances in force, after deduction of reassurances.............show an increase of.............. over twenty-three per cent. Policies and group certificates now outstand­ ing aggregate well in excess of half a million. The figures relating to resources and earning power are equally satisfactory. The high quality and profitable character of our investments has again been demonstrated. As a result of continued reduction in prevailing rates of interest, and of satisfactory industrial conditions, there has been a further rise in the market values of our long-term bonds and of our preferred and other stocks. The appraisal of our securities made by the Government Insur­ ance Department shows that the excess of market values over cost has increased during the year by $6,894,266.26. In addition, the sum of $1,729,364.52 has been realized as net profit from the redemption or sale of municipal deben­ tures and other securities which had risen to high premiums. The rate of interest earned on the mean invested assets has also risen to the remarkable figure of 6.69 per cent, as the result of substantial dividend increases, bonuses, and stock privileges received in connection with many of our holdings. The quality of the investments listed in the assets may be judged from the fact that on 99.55 per cent of the bonds and on 99.71 per cent of the preferred stocks, not one dollar of in­ terest or dividend is in arrear for even one day. On our common stocks the dividends now being received are greatly in excess of the dividends payable on the same stocks at time of purchase. The total surplus earned during the year amounted to $20,457,077.28. From this the f oilowing appropriations have been made: The sum of $2,000,000 has been de­ ducted from the official valuation of our se­ curities to provide for possible fluctuations in market values. This raises the amount set aside for this purpose to $5,000,000. In other words, the value at which our securities are carried in the balance sheet is $5,000,000 less than the appraisal made by the Government authorities. The account to provide for unforeseen con­ tingencies has been increased by $1,000,000 bringing the total under this heading to $11,000,000. The book value of oar Heed Office building has been written down by a further sum of $250,000 though it certainly coaid not be replaced at even its original cost. An additional amount of $400,000 has been set aside toprovide for greater longevity of annuitants. The total held under this head­ ing in excess of Government requirements, is now $1,500,000. The reserves on the newlj’ acquired busi­ ness of the Cleveland Life, and on other re­ assured policies, have been’raixx! io the same high standard as that used for the valuation of liabilities under our own contracts. To our policyholders, profits have-been paid or allotted during the year to the amount of $9,235,526.80. After making these deductions and alloca­ tions an addition of $5,371,564.56 has been made to the undivided profits. The surplus over all liabilities. Contingency accounts and capital stock, now stands at $34,011,565.25. For six years in succession we have increased the profits to participating policyholders. Dur­ ing this period our profit scale has been doubled. While the assurance* in force have multiplied two and a half times since 1920, the amount paid or allotted as profits to policyholders has multiplied five and a half times. We are gratified to announce, for the seventh consecutive time, a further increase in the scale of profits to be distributed to our policyholders m the ensuing year.
