Thomas J. McGuire The sudden death of Mr. Thomas J. McGuire, at his home in Haldimand Township, from a heart attack on Wednesday week came as a great shock to the community and to" his two remaining sisters, Mrs. Margaret MoCauley of Cobourg, and Mrs. Sarah Hefferman of Peterboro. Mir. McGuire was 73 ye airs of age, and wais born in Haldimand Township. In his younger days he was private detective on the Chicago Police Departmlent, and a cooper by tirade. Seventeen years ago he retired and built himself a home in Haldimand Township. He was a faithful Roman Catholic and a member of the Holy Name Society. The funeral took place from Nelson Tait's funeral parlours on Saturday to St. iMohaeFs Church and Cemetery. . Among those Who atended the funeral were Mrs. Margaret Mc-Couley and IMr. and Mrs. J. H. Routh, of Toronto; Mr. and Mrs. Michael Coughlin of Rochester, N.Y.; Mr. and Mrs. Jack Leonard and son of Toronto; Mirs. Sarah Heffernan, of Peterboro, andMr. Matt Dunn of -Haldi-miand Township. A Wonderful Flight Christian Science Monitor--"It was an innocent llitle press bulletin, the melee of a many-messaged n ing it almost slipped along to wastabasket. This is how it read: -- "Donald P. Conrigan, the American flier who took off from New York flight to California, dropped unheralded from the skies to-day at Baldon-nel. Ireland." Another 'nut flight,' we murmiured, moving the flimsy along toward 'the 'exit.' Then we caught the implication with something like the impact of a mule's hoof. What's this, what's this1? Ireland? Calif otrnia? Why, this young lad, without fuss, feathers, or fan-fare had quietly hopped off ostensibly on a more or less routine trip to California; skipped across the ocean; added another peg to the quickly accumulating proof that the world is small and men have got to learn, brotherhood. Yes, it belongs to category of deprecated 'stunts.' old crate; no license,; no provisions for failure; no permit. Most unorthodox! . But it was successful. It's going to be hard to discipline that lad!! Roadside Weeds Important Factor in Control Campaign Roads, Show Windows of the F Give Bad Impression When Marred by Unsightly Weeds--Clog Ditches and Spread Plant Disease on Ad joining Farm Lands. Farmers and city dwellers alike, will agree that country roads are the show windows of Ontario farms and are largely responsible for advertising products of the soil. If roads are mlarred by an unsightly growth of weeds, tourists get a bad impression and1 urban residents lose faith in rural Ontario as a producer of agricultural products second to none in the world. There are several good reasons why roadside weeds, should be wiped out of existence. They ('II) infest adjoining farm lands; (2) spread plant diseases; (3) are dangerous to traffic; (4) will gather and hold snow; (5) clog ditches on roadsides and thus hinder the flow of water and proper drainage of the road bed; (6) are dangerous from a fire standpoint; (7) are unsightly to residents and tourists' alike. The Weed Control Act of Ontario states roadside weeds must be de*-stroyed before seeds mature. "The Municipal Council, through its road authority, is responsible for seeing that this work is done. Proper grading of roadsides and removal of stones, stumps and brush will enable the road authority to do his work quickly and efficiently. A thick seed-inig of a good grass miixltuire will make a thick sod which prevents weeds from obtaining a foothold. Chemical killers have proved efficient and many municipalities have greatly improved county and township roads in a weed cleanup via the chemical route. Maybe your municipality has helped you out in this manner. If not. why cot? Don't forget the municipality is re-ponsible for eradication of all nox-ous weeds within its bounadies. E.
