His Honor Dr. H. A. Bruce, Lieutenant-Governor of Ont- ario, performed the ceremony. This cow was such a greatmilk and butter producer that she brought fame to her owner, T. R. Dent, and to Oxford County. She produced in ten lacta- tions 201,0,59 pounds of milk with a record of 9,062 pounds of fat, creating a new record among all dairy breeds anywhere in the world. She was owned by Mr Dent throughout her life- time of sixteen years. She died a year ago shortly after giving birth to a calf, and the Holstein-Fresian As- sociation of Canada decided to immort- alize her at a cost of nearly $4,000. The life-size statue stands upon a granite pedestal in a specially prepar- ed plot not far from the highway, where passing motorists may stop and I marvel at the Countess" past glory. Floodlitrhts will illuminate the saene. Auction Sale HOUSEHOLD EFFECTS THE EDITORS POWER tMt. Forest Confederate) I>e Loss Walk«r. editor of Liberty Magazine told 400 delegates to an edi- loi's' convention held in Detroit, that only individual effort by editors, their never-ending seeking of the truth, has kept the press free; and it is only the individual effort of editors that can keep it free in the future." There is truth in that dictum. To have a free people there must bo a fi'ee press; to have a fre<' press there niiisl be a free editor; to have a free editor, he must be free from influ- ences of patronage or self-interest. Unfortunately there arc many In- fluences that are selfish and un- scrupulous that try to buy or over- awe the press. Money makes the mare go in this and other fields. The rural press, however, is closer to the people than the city press and the reflex influence of people and press is cleaivr and stronger. A press, in- dependent of class, party and patron- age, closely in touch with public sen- linv<nt, and with pure and sincere aims for the good of the community and country, crntainly should be a powerful means of expressing as well lis impressing pulilic opinion and of promoting the public welfare.
