His death will be most sincerely mourned by a great many people who thought most kindly of "Charlie" as he was affectionately known. Two pieces of public service were performed by Mr. Wells. The one by which he will likely be remembered longest was his work-as road foreman for both township and county roads in his district. For township roads he had been foreman for some 21 years; and on the county road for about 12 years. His work was noted for its good quality. You could tell when you were on "Charlie's" beat because of the fine shape in which it was kept.

It has street cars, harbour and railway facilities into the very doors of the shipping rooms of all its industries. It is no doubt destined to become a very important city. Aside from the gigantic motor in- dustry for which Oshawa is known the world over, it has many other in- dustries which rank with the largest of their kind in Canada, namely: The Robson Leather Co., Limited; The Pedlar People, Limited; W, B. Philips Co., Limited; The Ontario Malleable Iron Co., Limited; The Fittings Ltd.; The Oriental Textile Co.

Years ago a young girl came to the school in Fowchow, but she could not pass her examination in mathematics, However, while there she learned Mrs. Longley how to bathe and care] for a baby and keep the house clean. She left school, married, and moved to a distant place and when Mrs. Long- ley visited her recently she found she had a clean home and she is teaching the women of the place how to take proper caré of their babies and homes. She has started a school and is help- ing her husband in his work. Isn't this work worth while? Mrs. Longley said, after visiting this home: "I have come to the conclusion that it does not require mathematics to make a fine home-maker," Mome Mission Work, v Miss Isabel MeIntosh, travelling secretary of the Dominion Board, gave a very interesting bird's-eye view of the work of the Woman's Missionary Society, carried on all across Canada.
