Their father, Professor Rai ph Wood, was graduated fromn Cambridge University in England ahd came out ta Ncwfounc and where he wes Language Master at Bish- op Field College, St. John's, Newioundland, for about 40, years. His sons bath attended this college but had no further academic desires. They wanted ta f arm. Dctermined ta make that their vocation, the brotli- ers came -ta Ontario and took courseg at the Agricultural Col- lege in Guelph. Nael's career Was interrupted by World War Two. He served five years witb the Imperial Forces. On bis discbarge from the Army. he refurned -ta Ontario, . visiting with anather brother, Rer. Shirley A. R.

About that tinie the farm he now awns, the second 100 acres south oi the highway, was ad- vertised for sale and in 1946 he moved ta Bethany. Since then he married and now bas a daughter and son. His first venture was 'in mix- ed farming on a small seille and the extensive ralsing ai cbickens. Now, however, he raises only turkcys, na cattie and no grain farming.
