WE HAVE SEVERAL PAIRS OF GOOD SECOND HAND Skate Uutflts Ai»s NEW OUTFITS WE REFUIR GOLOSHES VULCANIZE RUBBER SOLES Deepest sympathy goas out to Mr. Herman Schmid and family din the lamentable death of his is wife, Bertha Schmid, on Decem- ber l3th. Death, was apparently due ta erysipelas in her leg. The 2condition must have been develop- ling for some time although she had been attending. to ber daily duties as usual. A doctor had been called in on Thursday and on Friday mqrning she had got- ten up ta get breakfast. It was >while angaged at tliis that she died. Mr. and Mrs. Schmid and two children, Herman and Mary, and his brother came from near En- field ta the Wm. Allin farm, which Mr. Schmid bought, three years ago this fali. They have been hard working, industrious people and have made many im- provaments to the farmn and buildings. Rev. R. E. Morton conducted the funeral service ini the United Church Monday afternoon, with Mrs. E. C. Fisher, organistplay- ing for the singing af the hynns and playing the other requiem music. Mr. Morton took for the text of his comforting discourse, Romans 8:38, For I am persuaded that neithar death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities . . nor any*other creature,shall be able Ita separate us from the love of IGod. A large number of friends from Newcastle and vicinity were ber of friends of the famnily's own nationality from other points. Several lovely floral pieces at- tested the esteem and the sorrow af the donors. Flower bearers were: Reeve C. R. Carveth, Messrs Robt. Duck, Clarence Allin, Fred Couch and Fred Grahami. Inter- ment was in Oshawa Union Cme- tery. SUorthior Breeders sbipping fever and haemorrbagic septicaamia," (spelling supplied by Statesman reporter). Sales Manager: Russell Osborne. A motion was carried that any Durhamn breeder flot prasent at the meeting should be parmitted to enter stock at the annual sale, subject to nmembership, and sale rules. It was decided ta bold the an- nual sale on Thursday, Feb. 27, 1941, and around 30 head of breed- ing stock were pledged by mam- bers present. Discussion hinged upon a 4iaxinium limit but no de- cision was taken. W. F. Rickard, M.P., moved that the Secretary write ta the county associations of Victoria and Pater- boro regarding a field day in' June. Mr. Rickard also offered the bospitality and facilities of bis farm for the occasion. A commit- tee consisting of the President, the Associate Secretary and Mr. Rickard will proniote arrange- ments. As a sidelight on the reviving interest of U.S.A. breedars in choice Canadian Sborthorn stock, it was recallad that President Mumford recently sold. five aris- tocratic Shorthorns ta complement the Bartholomaw herd*of Illinois, at a top price of $500.00, This sale came about ebrough advertising and a meniber presant made the pungent observation that in al bis advertising ha had neyer ad- vertised at a loss. Alert expectancy animated the closing minutes of the session when a tentative proposal was made that the newly elected Pre- sident pravide a banquet of ham turkey and beaf, with trimmingsa ta mambers and buyers following the annual pale.
