Drew Will Be Widely Mourned--Passed Away Today of Mrs, E, W. residence, 152 In the mnassine Drew at her late King street east, about 7.30 this morning, Oshawa has lost a valued citizen and those who were near and dear to her by ties of relation- ship and friendship have heen sore- ly bereaved, The late Mrs, Drew, whose maiden name was Mary (Mamie) Caroline Coad, was a life long resident of Oshawa, being the daughter of Mr, and Mrs, Wil- liam Coad, who were numbered among Oshawa's pioneer citizens Thirty-two years ago she married Mr, E. W, Drew, in whom she found a devoted and loyal hus- band, and in her Mr, Drew found a sweet, ever helpful and loving wife and companion The union was blessed with two children, Har old L., who resldes on Kin~ street east, and Murray, who died in 1916 at the age of nine, Mrs. Drew's last illness about a year and for the past seven months she hag been con. fined to her hed practically all of the time. During the past summer she enjoyed greatly a stay of some five weeks at the family summer cottage in Muskoka where her ever thoughtful husband arranged for her comfort and enjoyment by extending her bedroom tn the broad verandah of the cottage where she could enjov the invigor- ating air and heautiful surround: ings as completely as her condition would permit, Her homa life was ideal and she wag ever devoted to her husband and family, who in turn showed her the utmost love and respect, which was especially noted durine her last illness when evervthins possible in the way of med'eal attention and nursing enve was provided, If one were to summarize Mrs Drew's Interests outside her home perhaps her love for children was her most noteworthy characteris- tic. For many years she taught a Sunday School class In Simcoe Street Church, of which she be- came a memher when quite a young girl, and her Influence still con- tinues in the lives of many of the younger men living in this eity and elsewhere whom she taught as boys in the Sunday School, It was but natural that she should also find a useful sphere for her interest ahd service on the Board of the Children's Aid Society of which she was a member for some fifteen extended prize on his hen pigeon. On a hom- er with record 150 miles, Vernon Whitely, Oshawa, took fourth on cock or hen bred 1930, and E, Bram- ley, Oshawa, took second for cock, racing homer with record 200 miles, In the LF.CL. bald yellow pigeon class, Ronald Wragg, Oshawa, se- cured third prize on his hen, _| rather than an Institution, PLAN PRELIMINARY ORGANUZATION FOR 1931 CONVENTION Executive Committee of Oshawa Branch, Canadian Legion Meets At a meeting of the executive committee of the Oshawa Branch of the Canadian Legion, the pre- liminary organization for the 1931 convention of the provincial com- mand, to be held here next August, was tentatively drawn up, and will be presented to the members of the branch at its meeting on Thursday evening of this week, in the ecoun- cil chamber. The draft organiza- tion calls for a general committee convention secretary and treasurer, and committees on finance, enter- tainment, billeting, program and publiefty, With the confirmation of the committee chairman at the meeting, the branch will be ready to undertake its biggest effort of its history, The executive also discussed the hall plans and site at some length, and will recommend to the meeting the appointment of three trustees to hold the property for the branch, Other important matters, which will he made the subject of a report to the barnch, were also dealt with by the executive, and a full attendance is requested at Thursday night's meeting to deal with the reports. vears, In this work she was most | helpful as a member of the House | Committee and following the la- i mented death of Mrs. H, K, Morphy | was appointed its Convenor, Iv this capacity she took a most ac- [tive and useful part in the ar | {ing of the new Children's Bhelter on Centre street, seeking in every way possible to make it a home But her interest also extended to the In- dividual children in the Society's care and many were the occasions when she personally befriended them in the unobtrusive way in which she always preferred to work. The late Mrs, Drew was also 4 member of the Red Cross Execu- tive and here also she found great enjoyment in helping to care for needy and undernourished child- ren, Her good taste and practical help were again demonstrated in the furnishing of the Red Cross Cottage at the lake, in which she had a large share, In her Church connection she was.always ready to help with the activities of the Women's Mlission- ary Soclety and the Ladies' Ald and in these spheres as In her other work her devotion and en- thusiasm sometimes took her fur- ther than her strength should have permitted, Her influence for good was felt by all with whom she came In contact, Her generosity was often gpoken of and yet she always preferred to keep her iden- tity in such matters concealed or in the background, The deceased is survived by her aged mother, Mrs, Willlam Coad, Sr., her father having passed away six years ago, Besides her deeply bereaved husband and son are also two brothers and three sisters who fecl keenly the loss of a loving and loyal sister, Thess are, Mr, J.

W, P. Fletcher, D.D,, who has been an intimate friend of the «family for many Years, Speaking to the Times this morning Mr, H, P. Schell, Presi dent of the Children's Ald Soclety, expressed deep regret at Mrs Drew's passing. "The Board has lost an exceedingly active and in- terested member', he sald, "and one who will be especially missed by her associates on the House Committee, I am sure the deep- est sympathy of every member of the Board will be extended to the bereaved husband and son and other relatives."

Some families in the rural sections are finding it dificult to secure pure drinking water, Praycrs For Rain Prayer for rain is not an un. common thing at rural church ser- vices these days, The situation is unusual and old timers can hardly remember an autumn season which has heen so lacking in rain as this has beon, In spite of the serious aspects of the drought, if such it might be Lack of Rain Serious to Farmers in This District, Wells and Creeks Drying up called, the lack of rain has also given 'rise to some original humor and the story goes that several rolemn Scotchmen have swallowed whole & yarn that is now current on Scugog Island. Here, accord- ing to the story, a farmer became so hard pressed for water for his stock that he loaded his three cows and a horse on a barge and rowed it three miles up the lake to a point where there is a spring. , The Patient Farmer Sophisticated city people are sometimes prone to say, without any foundation whatever, that far- mers are always grumbling about something or other, But as a mat- ter of fact the agriculturist is gen- erally the most patient of men and accepts the adversities of bad wea- ther, erop fallures, harmful frosts and damaging blights with a stol- cism which elty folk seem hardly able to emulate, We who have running water in our homes and can secure it by simply turning a tap can hardly realize the inconvenience which would he caused if we had to drive a wagon and team for miles in or. der to secure water, not only for our families, but for cattle, sheep, horses and. other animals depend- ent upon us, It is almost safe to say that we would make more fuss and fume if one tap went out of. order than farmers of the county are making in their present diffi- cutly, | from her late residence, King stree; | at two | | CITY AND DISTRICT NEWS TO GIVE LECTURE Professor aMurice Hutton, former principal of University Collelge, To- ronto, and noted lecturer, will ad- dress the University Extension Course class here tonight at seven o'clock In the Genosha Hotel, Piro fessor Hutton will speak on Byron and Shelley, REMANDED IN CUSTODY Robert Dault of Montreal, was re- manded in custody for one ween when he appeared before Magistrate I", K.

As the title {ndl- cates, this book is in the nature of a botanical work, but it deals with | the subject in the terms of the av- | erage man, rather than of the ex- pert botanist, so that to al! who have even the most elementary knowledge of the subject, it is an attractive little volume. Of chies interest, perhaps, is the portion dae voted to mushrooms, since this gives very clear details, both in story and in picture, as to which mushrooms | are edible and which are polsonous, | While it deals further with some of the more uncommon wild flow- | ers of Canada, it is mostly devoted | to ferns and grasses, including those krnsees which are better known as | grains, and wh'ch form a substan- tial part of the products of the agri- cultural industry, The book is com- pletely fllustrated, and shculd be u rource of delight to all students f the wild plant life of thls coun- try, the photographs of the ferns being particularly beautiful ana striking.

"Definite instructions hive not as vet been received from the chief inspector and this is the interpre- tation which I have placed on the announcement made by the depart- ment," It was pointed out to The Times that the public schools of the city have been operated this year for $6,000 less than last year, Table of Grants Published below is the table of grants with percent, of salaries payable to cities of two thousand population or over, but less than fifty thousand population, Less than 3 mills ,, mills but less tan 5 mills but less than mille but legs than 9 .... 8¢ mills but less than 12 ,.,.119% mills but less than 15 ....15% mills but less than 20 ...20% mills but less than 25 ... § mills but less than 30 . mills but less than 40 , or over ... .
