By your removal from our midst, we realize our class is losing a staunch and generous friend, and we ask you to accept this pen as a token of re- gard for you, coupled with our earnest wish that it will be a lasting memorial of the splendid relationship which has always existed among us, and bring to your mind many friends and happy days spent in Port Perry.

We hope that your life at your home will be one of con- tinued health, happiness and pros- perity.

We have noted with pleasure your years of faithful regret Perry. honor . service as usher in the Church and as secretary of the Sunday School.

SUMMER CLOSING The merchants of Port Perry will close their places of business on Wed- nesday afternoon at 12.30 during June, i July, August and September. ----()0 Oe FINE CROP PROSPECTS Reports from district representa- | tives reveal that practically all farm crops, with the exception of straw- low average yield, give promise of good returns. Warm weather and | frequent showers have brought along | spring grains wonderfully. Pasture | has made good headway, which is most fortunate as feed supplies are beginning to run low. It is almost certain that the acreage of both spring grains and new alfalfa, clovers and grasses will be much greater than for some years past. This increase, to- | gether with the absence of winter killing, indicates a large crop of home-grown feed next fall. A de- crease in milk shipments to cheese factories is noticeable, due largely to low prices being offered for cheese: While too early to make any defi- nite prediction regarding fruit pros- pects, P. W. Hodgetts, director of the Fruit Branch, states that everything ! so far is favorable. ~All classes of fruit came through the winter in ex- cellent shape and there has been a wonderful showing of blossom. With | continued seasonable weather a big [ yield may be expected of apples, | peaches, cherries, plums and other ! fruit. ------, > ------------------ If you want to haye a good laugh hear Nancy Anna Brown's Folks at | Scugog Centre Church on June 3rd.
