I Co-operative Short Course A three day Co-operative Short Course, one of the first four of its kind in Ontario, was held in the Park House, Flesherton. on February 19- House, Flesherton, and was well at- tended, delegates being present from Shelburne, EKindalk, Durham, Mea- ford, Flesherton and Port Elgin. The course dealt with Co-operation in all its various pha'ses, Farm For- ums and their relationship to the Co-operative Movement generally, Rochedale Principles, Credit Unions, Health Schemes and The Report of The Royal Commission Taxation of Co-openative^ and other subjects. Sessions were held in the forenoon and afternoon with meals and Idging supplied by the hotel. On the first day Lindsay Ingles, President of Dundalk Co-op. presided, and Mrs. Leonard Taylor of Fergus. Past Pre- sident of Wellington Federation of Agriculture was the g'uest speaker. Howard Graham, President of Flesh- erton Co-op. welcomed the delegates On the other two day^ Wm. Nichol- son of Port Elgin, Past President of the United Farmer's Co-operative in Toronto, presided and acted as dis- cussion leader. Many resolution* were passed and recommendations made during the course. At the con- clusion, the group had its picture taken on the veranda of the hotel. Course^ of a like nature were held in Owen Sound. Comber and Anca^ter. sounds ridiculous to listeners who are in the know. The Anglican Church buriel service is, in our opinion, everything that could be desired, and there iS no pro- vision made for any address. We like this because the church in its wisdom believes in equal rightfe to all. Whether one is pleasant or chief magistrate in the community, the buriel service is just the same. â€" Creemore Star- Says the Cheteley Enterpriae: "Getting in touch with the moon by radar is all very interesting, but we would 'still like to meet some people who would put us in touch with a supply of sugar and butter.

Mc.\rthur, n!ino?>san- About Funeral Orations The report of the obsequies for G. Howard Ferguson, former Premier of Ontario and High Commissioner of Canada, brings up a point on which we wholeheartedly agree. We refer to the fact that there was noor- ation made by the officiating clergy- man, who was none other than Dr- Cody, Chancellor of the University of Toronto- An oration or funera sermon was dispensed with at the ex- press wish of the dead man, as well as by his widow. We are allergic to funeral orations because we have heard so many which were greatly overdone. In many cases the officiat- ing minister at a funeral is a new- comer who knows little about the de- ceased- In his efforts to please the mourners he soars to great heights of oratory in eulogizing the particu- lar person.
