THOMPSON, Teacher Thornbury's oldest citizen, Joh:i Craig, passed away on Saturday at his home on Arthur street. Thorn- bury. He has been a resident of Thornbury for over fifty years. He was born in Hogg's Hollow, Yonge street, when Toronto was Muddy York, on May 25th, 1830 and â- was in his 97lh year. Only son of the late Mr. and Mrs. .William Craig, who had come from Ireland, he moved to Kimberley when fifteen years of age and owned and operated the first th'eshing machine in Euphrasia town- .ship in partnership with the late John Loughc'd. He w;; ; for many years a member of tile Orange Order and at the time of his death was a member of Lucas Lodge, L.O.L. 757, Thornbury. He was also a member of the Royal Scarlet Chapter, Collingwood town- ship. .Moving to Thornbury over fifty years ago he spent most of that time working at his trade as stone-mason an<l at the age of 82 years completed his last contract. He leaves to mourn his loss four children, one son, Edward, of Colling- wood, and three daughters, Mrs. Wil- son, Thornbury; Mrs. Hudson and Mrs. Pat Quigley of Toronto. His wife, formerly Miss Catherine Arm- strong, of Euphrasia, predeceased him 37 years ago. Three sisters also predeceased him. The funeral will be held on Tues- day afternoon at 2 o'clock to Thorn- bury Cemetery. The Orange Order will attend in a bo<ly. Insurance Shows Extent of Poverty The budget debate has at last fin- ished. The Vote on the main motion, amendnii'nt and sub-amendment talc, ing place early in the week. Party .'ind group lines were maintained in the vote. Th.'ough an error my name was omitted in the Canadian Press dispatches, but I was present and voted three times; in favor of the sub-amendmint, aguir.ot the amend, nient and against the main motion. The voting did not bvgi'i until almost 11 o'clock and continued until nearly midnight. The Canadian Parliament has the most cumbersome way of Voting. The British system with the "yeas" and "nay^s" filing into the voting lobbies, is much . quicker. Some countries vote by the member pressing an electrij button on his desk, which registers in a counting room and i.i recorded by the Clerk. Here, every member sitting on hi.^ right, in the case of the opposition, and on his left on the government side of the House, is called by the Deputy-Clerk. The name is repeated in a tone loud enough to be heard measure of both debts and prices and very little more than that. It should be a fairly constant measure of both. Unl'oituantely it is a RIGID measure of DEBTS and a RUBBER measure of PRICES. "In 1929 the street price of wheat, No. 1 Northern, in Edmonton on January 31st was $1.04 a bushel. On the same day this year it was 28c a bushel. A $1,000 mortgage, there- fore, wa.! e<iuivalent to 962 bushels of wheat in 19^9 and 3,970 bushels in 1933. "Raw materials, the world over, have fallen more than 50 per cent; wholesale prices 33 1-3 per cent, and letail price:-, 21 per cent, below the 199 level. The general average of farm commodity prices, for instance, i.i now 10 per cent, below the levels obtaining immediately before the war, while on the aver:'.se, prices of those goods that fan.iors chiefly buy arc still 5 or per cc:r.. above pre-war prices. Thus the farmer's purchas- ing power and debt-paying power have been drastically reduced. "This gap between prices and debts is the real wound in our econ- omic !.;ide. It must and will be closed before health can be restored to us. Prices must be raised or debts reduced â€" there is no other way. The reduction of debts might- be Wilkie Is Insane ROCK MILLS PUBLIC SCHOOL UPPER SCHOOL CHEMLSTRY â€" Hon. â€" M. Little 77. Pass â€" J. McFadden 72, J, Hincks CjG, K. Morrison 04, A. Akins 61, E.

In this year of low prices, the differenc between the cheapest and the be-3t seed is merely a few cents per bushel. The result of using poor seed, however, may mean a reduction of 20 to 50 per cent in yield. Jr. 2nd â€" Phyllis Partridge 71, Che.-^ter Shier 56, Harry Fisher 46, Gordon Shier 42, Cecil Shier 14.

You will no doubt have noticed thai the Senate pa-ssed a Sweepstakes Bill, whiah w^ould allow the hospitals of each province to conduct a sweep- stake. General McRae sponsored the Bill in the Upper House, he who is accredited with having much to do with the Conservative victory of 1930, but in the Lower House it wa-s not a Conservative, but a Liberal, Major Power, otherwise known as "Chul by," who introduced the Bill. His argument was that if people want to gamble, they might as well gamble to some good purpose. The next hour for private bills enabled Mr. Bury, Con:3ervative, and .Mr. Carmichael, Progressive, Sask- atchewan, to argue earnestly against the Bill, on moral grounds. Mr. Carmichael moved a six-months hoist, but before the motion could be put, 9 o'clock was reached. The Bill, how- ever, will come up again. a dictator, who could, by a stroke of the pen, reduce everything from war debts to store debts -simultanously. But in this imperfect world of real- ities the only ready means of general debt reduction is the slow crumbling process of default and bankruptcy. "The problem of 1933 is to forestall that process by raising prices. . . . This is the main task of the monetary conference." April 15, 1933. â€"AGNES MACPHAIL Melville Wilkie, 24-year-old Owen Sound transport driver, on Wednes. day night was commited to an insane asylum for the murder last December of his wife in a gasoline blaze that burned their bedroom and suffocated their baby girl. Wilkie, accused of setting fire to the home -so he might collect an in- surance policy he had placed on his wife's life, was convicted of murder, but was declared insane by a jury in the court of Mr. Justice Nicol Jef- frey. The jury returned their verdict after almost eight hours' con-sidera. tion, during which they twice return- ed to the crowded courthouse to re- ceive further instructions from the judge. On their first return. Fore- inan Stanley McConnell said there was little prospect of agreement, but Mr. Justice Jeffrey further instructed them and ordered them to return. They reappeared to ask how to word their verdict. During the entire proceedings Wil- kie remained quietly uninterested, and received his sentence in the same way. He was led from the court immediately the judge ordered his confinement to the asylum. On the night of December 5 oi early the following morning "fire swept suddenly through the bedroom in the Wilkie home at Owen Sound Mrs. Wilkie suffered fatal bums, dy- ing 17 hours later. The six-months, old daughter of the Wilkies was suf- focated in the room. A pianist accompanies face lifting clinic. Why not? It should help FOR SERVICE Reg.

Previous to 1930, 5 million Canadians held Ife insurance policies. .A.S it i j now, less than one-third of the population are insured and these, they who are the best able to pay, who th.-»r<>fore need insurance the least and who, in all probability are the healthiest since they are the least worried. There are in all 64 life insurance companies in Canada, of which 28 art Canadian, 10 British and 20 foreign. Ten of the British and eleven of tht foreign are not writing any new bus. incss, which leaves 43 a.tive compan- ies. Of these 35 are stock compan- ies, ins, having a capitalization of $74- 752.000, but 12 of the 21 inactive com- panies have a capitalization of $110,- 408,000. It seems clear that life insurance companies do not need capital stock and to the extent that thoy have it, are impairing the investment of the policy holders. The total yearly income of all com- panies is over $400 million and the co.st of administration, per year $88,077,000. By insurance the people have placed tremendous power in the hands of a few private individuals. Those best informed on the subject of insurance state that there is noth- ing further to be gained from compe- tition and more and more people are coming to believe that under govern- ment insurance every person in Canada could be protected against old age, sickness and accident at a mere fraction of the present cost. Under nationalized insurance, the most needy, rather than the least needy would be protected and the »;ovornment would have a huge pool of nioney for uiie at much lower cost than the present interest rates.
