JULIA ANN ROSS Mrs. Julia Ann Ross, a highly esteemed resident of Owen Souuad for 64 years, passed away in that city on October 28 in her 85th year after a brief illness. Mrs. Ross had resided with her son-mn- law and daughter, Mr. and' Mrs. Paul Kennedy, for the past two and a haîf years. She was very well known and her death will oc- casion sincere regret among a wide circle of friends. Deceased was born near Bow- manville on a farmi in Clarke Township, daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Richard Peardon. She lived on the farmi until she was. 16 and. then moved with her family to Listowel. In 1880 she was married to the late George A. Ross in Listowel. In 1884 the cou- ple moved: to Owen Sound where Mrs. Ross had resided until her death. Mr. Ross, who was post- master, predeceased his wif e in 1922. Surviving are two daughters, Miss Gertrude J. Ross and Rhode J., Mrs. Paul Kennedy, both of Owen Sound, and one sister, Mrs. H. B. Foster, of Bowmanville. Three sons, William, John and Ed- win predeceased. their mother. Mrs. Ross haci been. a member of Division St. Un'te-d 'Ehrch and of the Woman's Association lor many years and was keenly in- terested in church work. Impressive funeral services were conducted at the Brecken- ridge-Ashcroft Funeral Home, -Oc- tober 30. A great many old friends were in attendance and beautiful fiowers banked about the casket testified to the sorrow of friends of the family and to the esteem in which Mrs. Ross was beld. Dr. Harold W. Vaughan, min- ister of Division Street Churcb, conducted the service. He spoke of the coincidence of Mrs. Ross's death just at the time of the cel- ebration of the anniversary of the church to which she had given such loyal and faithful attend- ance and service through a life- time. He spoke of the debt of men and women of the present day to the pioneer familles, whose members built such a fine trad- tion of faith and service, and among these he numbered the late Mrs. Ross. Palîbearers were E. C. Spere- man, Walter Pfeff er, W. J. Arthur, Mac Budge, Harold Wilson and Elmer Gardner. Interment was in the family plot at Greenwood cemetery. Those in attendance from a distance were two grand- children, George Ross and bis wife and Mrs. John Lambert, the for- mer Audrey Ross, a nephew Alex Ross, all of Toronto, and a sister, Mrs. H. B. Foster, of Bowman- ville.

Reaman Dr. G.E. Reaman, former Sup- erintendent of the Boys' Training School, Bowmanville, and pres- ently head of the Department of English, Ontario Agricultural Col- lege, Guelph, is the author of a new 'book, History of the Hol- stein-Friesian Breed in Canada. [t is an authoritative treatise of 568 pages and is on sale at $6.50. Dr. G. Elmore Reaman It will be of great interest locally. The following press comment ap- peared in the Montreal Gazette following publication: Less than 75 years ago the Hol-* stein cow was unknown in this country but today it is predomin- ant on the Canadian dairy scene, according to Dr. Reaman of the Ontario Agricultural College, at Guelph, who was commissioned to write the history of the breed in Canada. Although the book is concerned principally with the Hoîstein-Friesian breed it deals briefly with other types in Can- ada, the Ayrshire, Jersey, Guern- sey and oth*ers. The first cattie were landed at Sable Island in 1518 but this im- portation was unsuccessful. The next cows were brought in 1606, and importations were made at various times in succeeding years with the Hoîstein-Friesian intro- duced irito Canada in 1881, and brought into Quebec and. Ontario the following year. Since then the breed bas spread~ all over Canada until today there are few sections 6f the country in which it is not encountered. Dr. Reaman bas includedi in bis book brief biographies of the mqn mainly responsible for the growth of the Hoîstein-Friesian breed in this country. There are numner- ous charts and histories of cham- pion animais, and the book la ib- erally illustrated with photo- graphs. New Science (Continued from Page One) life. A leading cause in failures was a lack of motivation, inability to align school life with outside life. The iclea was to create an urge in the individual for a par- ticular sphere witbin wbich each would become integrated in the streami of life. Lack of ability in the academic field, was not view- ed today as of such great import- ance as in the past. Health With intelligence tests which quite objectively rate the capac- ity of the individual stucient in both academnic and basic skills, at- tention is also paid to 'health, in- clucling hearing, eyesight and' oth- er physical defects. In this spbere the state pays out much money most widely used as corelative to success of the scheme. Other cor- rective elements include attention to poor study habits, emotional in- stability attributable to home en- vironments and a check is main- tained on botb under-achievement and over-achievement. Forms Record forms were passed along by Mr. Elliott to permit his aud- ience visual evidence of the points made. For instance on thé Indi- vidual Counselling Record there are spaces dealing with, Academnic Evidence, Mechanical, Social, Clerical, Musical, Artistic, Special and Hobbies, ail of which are summarized by ratings, A, B, C, D. In conclusion, the speaker quoted ratings covering various occupa- tions including trades and profes- sions, farming, etc. An interesting question period followed in which Mr. Elliott ex- plained that basic research in developing the scheme involved case -histories covering individ- uals in no less than 18,000 jobs in the U.S.A. and. some, 10,000 in Canada. Thanks for the very able address was expressed.'by How- ard Bickle. Business Visitors included Rotarians Reg Geen, Oshawa, and Newton Ash- ton, Markdale, and George Mc- Crea, New Toronto, who had just completed 36 years' continuous service with the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company. Frank Mcllveen reported on the reop- ening of the Rotary Bowling Lea- gue. He said new blood promiset an active season but he could not report scores registered by ab- spntees. By Lewis Milligan A columnist in the British N'eekly, who signs himself Ilico, wrriting under the title, "The Com- forts of Atheism," says: "A prac- tising doctor in Harley Street told ne the other dey that most of his patierits come from well-to-do families, that a few of them, most- .y women, are addicted to Anglo- Catholicism, and that for the rest hardly any show the slightest in- .erest in religion or are conscious of any need which religion might dlaim to satisfy. Religion, it would seem, neyer crosses the threshold of thought." To which Ilico adds: "I find, that staggering, for I carîiot imagine how people get on without religion." The answer to that is that peo- ple don't get on without religion -even the avowed atheists. In my youth I was curious about atheism, and I used occasionally to attend meetings of the Secular- ist Society, at which lectures were delivered by leading "Freethink- ers," most of whom, by the way, were socialists. Bernard Shaw addressed one of these meetings, Pqt he adroitly sidestepped com- mitting himself as to whether or not he had any religious con-vic- tions. Shaw was fond of making fun of religious people, but he also poked fun at the Secular- ists. I once heard him address- ing a group of Anglicans whom he amused for haîf an hour with wisecracks at the Church and at certain parts of the Bible. That is quite an easy thing to do if you are glib enough. What struck me about those secularists was that they could not get on without religion. They were so much obsessed with re- ligion that they were forever ar- guing about it. They would pro- pound such questions as "Is There a God?" and proceed to prove that there wasn't. The idea of God seemed to bother them. They could neither believe in religion nor leave it alone, and I used to wonder what they would have to argue about if they succeeded in abolishing religion altogether. But the truth is that these pro- fessed atheists were not atheists at ail; they were merely trying their best to make themselves be- lieve they were atheists, and they were trying hard. In their re- flective and sentimental moments they would give themselves away, as Robert Ingersoll d'id, in an ad- dress at the funeral of one of his atheist friends, whenf he wistfully spoke of this life being a "brief span between two eternities." When I read that address some years ago I felt that Ingersoîl was at heart a profoundly religious man who had been groping in the dark with his eyes shut. Personally, I prefer the out- spoken scepticism of men like Ingersoîl to the dumb indifference or cynicism of s0 many people in these days toward religion. Those aggressive a.theists and agnostics of two generations ago dici more to arouse popular interest in re- ligion than the churches them- selves. They presented a chal- lenge to the churches to stand up and defend themselves, and most of the great preachers of those days, such as Henry Ward Beech- er and Talmage, were stirreci to eloquent defence of the faith that was in thç;4n by that challenge. The frontal attack on religion prompted many of the Victorian poets to deeper thoughts and higher flights of imagination, as in Tenyson's "In Memoriam," and many of the poems of Browning. It was Tennyson who wrote: He fought his douýbts and gathered strength; He would not make bis judg- ments blind: He faced the spectres of the mind And laid them; thus he came at .length To find a stronger faith bis own. Each generation must fight its own doubts, for faith is a personal Vêf444f47V.a Scott's Emulsion--- Wampole's Extract Kepler's Extract --- Vi Mi Caps.------ --59c-98e ------ $1.00 '75c-$1.25 $1.85-$3.25 Happy is he the palace of whose MiUk Commission Starts November 18 Hon. Mr. Justice Dalton Wells,1 Comimissioner appointed to en- quire into the production and dis- tribution of milk in the Province of Ontario, stated today that the Commission would commence its sittings on the l8th November, next. The Commissioner propos- es to sit first in the City of Toron- to and to deal first with the his- tory of taie relevant legislation and control pf milk and milk pro- ducts and the operation of the Milk Control Board. Representa- tions from interested parties in the Toronto Area will not be heard at these preliminary sit- tings, but a further opportunity will be given at a later date after the timne for filing representations has expired. A formai announce- ment, which will be published throughout the Province, will cal for briefs to be submitted to the Secretary of the Royal Commis- sion at Osgoode Hall by the 21st November. The Commissioner plans to sit in various Ontario centres select- ed with a view to giving the ful- lest consideration to any special local conditions. Tentatively, the plan is to sit in Hamilton, London, Windsor, North Bay, Port Arthur or Fort William, Ottawa and Belleville. The final public hear- ings will be held in Toronto. This itinerary has not been finally set- tled and will, of course, depend to some extent on the briefs which àre submitted. The Commissioner emphasized that the enquîry had been author- ized to conduct the fullest and most complete investigatk*on in this matter of great publlc. con- cern and hoped that all interested parties would take full advantage of the,invitation to submit repre- sentations on relevant facts to the Commission.
