RB, --~ CARD OF THANKS Qs Isaiah Irwin wishes to express or sincere appreciation: for the sym- pathy and kindness shown by friends and neighbours at the time of her bereavement in the death of her mother, Mrs. John Wannamaker. ------------ TO LEAVE PORT PERRY Rev. T. A. Nind announced to his congregation in the Church of the Ascengion at the Sunday Service, that he was leaving the Port Perry parish about the middle of May next, and will assume the duties of Rector of the Anglican Church at Grafton, Ontario. There is general regret because of the decision which Rev. Mr. Nind has made to leave Port Perry. During the nine years of their stay with us "Mr. Nind and his family have proved themselves to be most desirable citi- zens. Mr. Nind has endeared himself to the citizens of Port Perry by his im- partial kindness to all who needed comfort and help. His visits to sick folk have been greatly appreciated and his acts of practical kindness will long be remembered by many who. will al- ways look upon Mr. Nind as a true friend. : His spiritual ministrations have been of a high order, and marked by a sincerity that is refreshing in-a day when lack of interest in Christian principles has marred much that could be most effective in human reform. The very motives that prompted Mr. Nind to make the change are sufficient evidence of this statement, He is will- ing to step aside to make room for someone whose need may be greater. Mrs. Nind has been a reliable, in- telligent leader of all that tends to im- -prove social and educational conditions in our Community. As a member and as Regent of the I.0.D.E. she has given that type of leadership which is a lasting inspiration to fine citizenship among those whose good fortune has permitted intimate association with her. To say that Mrs. Nind will be missed by the ladies of the community is a very mild statement of the case. It is no idle word 'to say that her place will be most difficult to fill. The young folk of the family have ; Been worthy of their excellent parents. "Good wishes and kindly thoughts will always follow them as their courses in life unfold. A. iY A OAPaPL I. 0. D. E.

Parrinder and Mrs. John Leask visited friends in Toronto last it week, The side roads are drying up very fast after dragging operations which smoothed down the deep ruts. The snow fences were removed the earlier part of the week and it looks as though it will only be a few days before seeding starts in full force, There was "music" in the air last week when the boys of the community armed themselves with anything that would make a good noise and marched over to the eastern part of the neigh- borhood and entertained the newly weds to a good old time charivari. After enjoying the strains of tin pans, whistles, etc, for a time, the kindly host came forth and silenced their noise with a 'satisfying treat. The boys are now anxious to know who will be next, so that they may be able to give a similar entertainment. Mr. John C. Lawrence visited his twin brother, Mr. A. G. Lawrence of Clevelard, last week. Mrs. Jack Kirkham entertained her Sunday School teacher and the mem- bers of the class at her home on Wed- nesday night.

This was set at 45 mills, as will be seen in an article on the front page of this issue. Mr. Mansell Gerrow appeared for the Board "of Education, making a requisition of $7,600 for local school maintenance. This was $1500 less than the requisition for 1936.. The matter of tree planting in Port Perry came up. for discussion, and it was decided to announce that any person who wishes to have trees planted will kindly leave name at the Treasurer's office. A letter was received from Hom. David Croll, Minister of Welfare, set- ting forth a proposed policy re relief: The following policy enunciated last year will continue ir: effect, i.e.: "That men who are in receipt of re- lief and who have an opportunity to obtain work on a farm at the current rate of wages, should .be required to. do so. Municipalities will have the support of the Provincial Department where they find it necessary to insist that a relief recipient accept such a position: It is to be understood, however, that a man's absence from the Municipality in connection with such work will not affect his municipal residence. The policy in respect to income de- rived from this source shall be 4 mat- ter for the decision: of the local muni- cipal authorities." tar the Department of Agriculture of the from March 22nd, 19087.
