Gili-ay, was the proud boy in the comimunity one day last week wihen he came to the house carrying a. ground hog tail. He and his dog had been i-omping in a near. by field when tli« dog made the kill. Barry removed the tail like a vet- eran and presented it to his father, who is a oub-captain of one of the teams. The same young gentleman presented our better half with a cup of wild *ta-awbei-»i€« a week ago, which he had picked. On elec- tion day his mother asked him whom he was going to vote for and he named your correspondent, so we ai-e just about as proud as Barry. Mr. Lome Ormsby shot nint ground hogs on his farm recently in less than 30 minutes. Mr. Jack Hill secured five tails to bis credit when he eaime upon a nest while re- moving a pile of wood. All of which may, oi- may not, be a recoi-d of some kind. We may have other tales to tell when tihe tails are counted at the Coarjm'unity Day on June 22. The decision of tiie judges wiM be a feature of the progi-am. GRADLWTES AS NURSE Engagement Mr. and Mi-s.

Old Ceylon Resident Passes One of .â- Vrteniesia's better known citizens, Sangster Hratphill, passed away at his home at Ceylon Thurs- day afternoon, June lOth. following a lengthy illness. He was in his 82nd year. Deceased was the last sui-viving member of the faawily of the late James and Mai-garet Hemphill ami was born at Mt. Zion in 1866. .\s a young man he learned the black- smithing ti-ade at Raft'cnna. He moved to Ceylon in i890 and mari-ied Isabelle MlcKenzie, who predeceased him by 28 years. The late Mr. Hemiphill took a great interest in chui-ch work and was a member of the Gospel Workers' church at Feversham. Sui-viving to mourn are three daughters: Maud, at home; Myrtle (Mrs. Chas. Irish), Toronto: Reta (Mrs. Emerson Wright), Feversham; and one son, Pei-cy, of Ceylon. An- other son. John, predeceased him in July, 1923'. The funeral was held on Sunday afternoon, with service at his late residence, conducted by Rev. C. Bell, and assisted by Rev. F. Dean, a for- mer minister. B\' specwl reojucst Mrs. C. Bell sang "The Last Mile ol the Way." The casket was banko'l with many beautiful flowers. The pallbearei-s were: Messrs. K Rutledge, A. E- Goessel, J. S. Mo- Dermid. G. E. Jaynes, .\ngus Whit- taker and M. T. Hogarth. The flowei- bearers were eight grandchikh-en, Isabelle, Fred, Bruce and Norman Irish, Ruth and Leoii- ani Hemphill. Stanley and Shii-ley Wright. Relatives and friends attended the f'uneail from, Woodbridge. Colling- wood. Wiarton, Berkeley. Clarksburi; King, Maple. Thornhill. Schoniberg, Toronto, Lon^- Branch, and district points. â-  A young red fox runnmg about his farm home, is the high-light on the farm of Mr. Clare Davis, east backline. .A.rteniesia. The fox was caught on a neighboring farm when it, and another little one, were seen playing around their den. Mr. Davis lay down beside the hole and waited until the fox pup poked its head up to see what was going on and it was immedkuDely g-iwbbed by thp head and made prisoner. .A.t first the pup snaa-led and was not a bit friendly, but with kind treatment it has be- come quite tame a'^d will follow the children about the farm. When it wishes to enter the housei t will sit at the door and bark. \ sui-prising thing is tjhat within 24 houi-s after the fox was taken home it had for- gotten its wild ways and would allow the children to pick it up and pet it. We did not know that a fo.\ would tame as easily. The a.nimal is (luite an oddity for a pet and is the envy of the neii?hiboring youngsters. John EHivis, li-year-old son of Reeve J. A. Davis, wants his father to get him a fo.x pup, too.
