States were combed to secure the best in foods foriTheiy Majesties, to be served at official dinners and while enroute on the Royal train. The well" known organization of Peel Bros.; demonstrated its ability te eet an emergency thrust upon them; one calling for quality and 'service of a high order. The Eastern Ontario Poultry Pool telephoned rush orders for immediate delivery of one hundred capons- for the Royal tour. This was a somewhat difficult assignment to fill at this season of the year, but the birds were carefully selected from the thousands of capons on the Peel farms and shipped by express to the: Brock- ville plant of the Fastern Ontario Poultry Pool within a-few hours from the time the orders were received. The birds were then dressed and prepared for Their Majesties' chef, : There were three orders all told, totalling 10% birds: These were Bar- red - Rocks and the information we have is that. they were first selected alive on the Peel plant, then rail graded at Brockville in order to pass the high standard set. Only two on three birds were rejected on the sec. ond grading. The capons were killed, cooled, graded, breast tagged and packed in regulation size hoxes which bore the government inspector's stamp and the certificate of grade issued by the Department for complete ship- ments. Something «bout the" Eastern On- tario Poultry Pools 'would lie of in terest here so we quote the following three paragraphs from a press notice issued at Brockville: alastern Ontario Poultry Pools, Brockville Central, enjoyed an out- standing honour and privilege in sup- plying poultry for the Royal Train in Eastern Canada. - They were firsy called upon to supply the Montreal re- quirements, then later owing to difli- culty in -securing the -weights and grade required, the Toronto order was also given to the Brockville Central Pools. "& ' "This organization although in op- eration only a year has established a record for---high quality poultry. Tt operates its own killing and process- ing plant at_Brockville where every facility is available for- turning out one of _the best poultry packs in the Dominion of Canada. The latest methods are employed and all birds we tagged, standard box packed, government inspected, and suitable for cither export or domestic _markets. The first year's operation handled a total of over a quarter million pounds of dressed poultry. This year to date the vofume is greatly increased and 'the organization is confidently looking forward to doubling last year's busi- ness. 2 ge strictly a producers' orga- nization. and. does not purchase any poultry. It is owned, controlled and operated by the producers themselves and for this reason a personal inter- est is. apparent among producers throughout the ~ wide area served. Eastern Ontario has long been~known as a poultry district of merit and the adidtional educational work carried on through the Central is further improv. "ing this product. - For this reason the "Ceiitral=is in a position to supply the 'most difficult orders as it has the sup- port of the leading poultrymen." "Myrtle Station It is with deep regret we report the untimely death of a' very dear friend in the personof Mrs. Arthur R. Ward, . who passed-away carly. Friday morn- ing, June 9th, 1030, aftér an illness ot about fifteen months. Mrs. Ward, who was formerly Miss Isabel Mary Ham- ilton, was born near Strabane, County Tyrone, Ireland, almost 49 years ago, where her father, mother, brothers and sisters still live, excepting one 7 sister who lives in London, England, © and a brother Mr, Al Hamilton, tele- graph oggrator at Chatham, Ont, the latter being the only member of the family to attend the funeral. Deceased was a trained nurse, grad- uating in Edmonton, Alta, She served with _ the, Canadian Army Medical Corps, 22nd Cavalry Field Ambulance, also served with military hospital, Regina, as a nursing sister. Eighteen years ago she was united in fmar- riage with Mr. Arthur R. Ward. They lived at McLeod, Alta, for some timé, aldo 'at Chicdgo 'and Toronto before moving to: Myrtle Station three and a ; half years ago. Mrs. 'Ward's sweet ---- disposition and kindness to all had won her many friends in this vicinity. She was a member of the Women's Association and the Faithful Workers' Class, also teacher of a small boys' class in our Sunday School at the United Church until her health failed. She will be sadly niissed by a large circle of friends, who unite in extend- my their deepest sympathy to the sorrowing husband, her brother and her family who live in the Old Land. THE funeral servieé was in: gharge of 'Rev. W. E. Honey, taking place from her home oip Sunday afternoon, There was a large, attendance of ve- latives of Mr. Ward as well as a lirge girele of friends. The many beautiful flowers bespoke silently the esteem in which our fiend was held. © The pallbearers were Messrs. Oliver Lane, Arthur Manderson, Roy Thompson and Clarence Cook, Myrtle, Geo. Me- Clintock, Prospect, Reg. Cogkman, of Blackwater. Interment took place in Mount Lawn Cemetery, Oshawa. The messages delivered on Sunday morning by the pastor, Rev. W. E. Honey, was both timely and helpful.' He chose his subject .from" IT Corin- thians 3:2-3, "Ye are our cpistle writ-, ten in our hearts, know and read of all men: For as much as ye are mani. festly declared to be the epistle' of Christ ministered by ug, written not with ink, but with the spirit of the living God: not in tables of stone, but! in fleshy tables of the heart." Sunday School next Sunday at 1.45 p.m. Church service at 3 p.m. Mr. Arthur Ward wishes to express his sincere thanks to the many re latives, friends and rcighbours fou tieir kindness during the illness and ofter death of his loving wife, also for the kind expressions of sympathy and beautiful floral tributes reccivea.
