Griffis VERNONVILLE April 26th, 1927 Deviney visited at it Salem, a few days Mrs. James her old home, last week. Mr. and Mrs. Dusendorf, Cobourg, were in this neighborhood on Tuesday last and called on friends. Miss Fern Winter, who underwent an operation for appedicitis recently, at the Cobourg hospital, has returned home and is doing well. Mr. Gordon Rutherford was taken to Bowmanville on Saturday last and on Sunday morning was operated on for appendicitis at the General Hospital. At time of writing he is reported to be doing nicely. Mr. Thomas Anderson, Smiths Falls, Mr. and Mrs. John Anderson, Mr. Wm. Anderson, Mr. George Smith, and Mr. and Mrs. S. Rpclett, Havelock, were here on Tuesday attending the funeral of the late Raymond Anderson. Mr. Joe Oalnan has just completed considerable additions to his poultry plant in the shape of colony and brooder houses. Mr. Calnan intends shortly starting work on another large hen house. When this is completed he will have the largest and most up-to-date poultry plant in this vicinity. His favorite hen is the White Leghorn. The M. S. M. G. organization, locally, is resuming its old activities. Some of the members indeed are show ing themselves phenomenally enthusiastic. Recently, at a meeting of the executive, new officials were appointed and plans laid for advance movement. The present incumbant of the President's office is Miss Leona Locke, and the recording scribe is Miss S. J. Ives. The cool weather of the past week had the effect of delaying seeding operations to some considerable extent. Farmers in a good many cases have the ground all in readiness to sow, but have been holding off for warmer and more favorable weather conditions. This does not mean that the farmers are without a job these days, no, not at all. These are house-cleaning days and not many care to show any disposition to loaf around for fear they may be called upon to assist in this annual operation of renovation. This community was shocked to learn on Sunday night lest, April 24th, 1927, of the sudden and unexpected death of Mr. Raymond Anderson, which occi|rred at 6.30 p.m. of that day. He had only been sick a >/ew days and at first his illness was not considered serious; but alarming symptoms developed three or four days previous to his death, when his physician entertained but slight hopes for his recovery. The funeral service was conducted on Tuesday afternoon, the Rev. L. H. Coles of Colborne officiating. Interment was made at St. Andrew's Cemetery, Vernonville, and a large concourse of friends and neighbours followed the remains to the last resting place. Born in Havelock, 27 years ago, he came to this vicinity along with his late father and fellow members of the famil . 73.1 Honours 75% Pass 60% Sr. IV- % Irene Oke . .

Pupils of rolbornc Flirh School; case, but th're mighty few and far between. The average pupil is too modest or too bashful to reach out and take too large a helping of education when it is passed around. Once in a long while you have to tell some one not to over-study, but the general admonition that is needed is to tell them not to under-study. When education is being passed around you want to forget all about your mpdesty. you want to overcome all your bashful-ness and reach right out and take just as large a helping as you can get everv time. Don't be afraid of robbing the other fellow; there's lots to go around. Education is about the only commodity we have lying around loose and the supply is inexhaustib'e. You can have all you can take away and there's no danger of you getting too much or more than you can carry around.
