OBITUARY Last Thursday, May 28th, the whole neighbourhood of Seagrave, Ont., was oreatly shocked to learn that Mrs, Clara Irwin, a most highly respected » resident was most suddenly called to her reward. All through the previous 'ay she had been most actively em- 'oyed in her various duties, about iidnight she was no more. Mys. Tewin, if one could judge by her fun- ral cortege, was held in high esteem, She was born, November 4th, 1882, in Sengog Township, Her maiden name was Clara Wannamaker. On the 26th »' September, 1908, she became the 'v'de of Isaiah Irwin. There was only ~e child from that happy union, Sina Irwin, now Mrs. Grant Bright, of East Whitby Township. Rev. H. G. Lester, her Pastor, of the Seagrave United Church had charge of the funeral. He preached a most comforting message from that grand old text: "Come unto Me all ye that labour, and are heavy laden and I will give you rest." The rémains were laid to rest in the Pine Grove Cemetery, Prince Albert. Much sympathy goes out to her be- reaved husband and daughter in this their hour of sorrow, I can prove it, Place 100% live de- i HOW TO REDUCE FARM MACHINERY COSTS Machinery now plays an important part in farm operations and there is particular need for operating it, re- pairing it economically and overhaul- ing it regularly. The following methods may be used to reduce the farm machinery costs, says W. Kalb- fleisch, Field Husbandry Division, Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa. (1) Do as much repair work with farm labour as possible; (2) Keep machines in good repair and in proper adjus{ment. Machines which are kept in good repair will years of service and will save time during field operations; (3) Purchase good second-hand or reconditioned tools to keep the investment down and to reduce depreciation; (4) Purchase special machinery such as ensilage cutters, hammer mills, corn binders, sheep shears, ete., jointly with your (5) Hire, own, expensive' machines such as threshers, combines and hay presses, unless the acreage handled will just- ify 'the ownership of these machines; (8) Do custom work for neighbours whenever possible with large ma- chines; (7) Select power units to meet the needs of the farm business and select equipment to fit the power units; .(8) Operate a large enough farm enterprise to use machinery and equipment efficiently, , A farmer can- not afford to own a "milking machine for only six cows; or a large tractor on a small farm, -- THE COAL._SITUATION Ontario will this year be entirely dependent upon Western Canada and the United States for coal supplies. Ontario's fuel supplies are at the mercy of overburdened transportation facilities. Coal from Alberta must be transported over railways which must also carry grain and other vital sup- plies vital to the war effort.

It is of utmost importance that the public be advised to stock up with coal NOW, while it can be procured at the mines and the railway cars are avail- able. It is not hoarding to store coal in consumers' bins, Sée yeur local dealer at once, and thus save disappointment later. / - ur DR. ISAAC PAGE IS SPECIAL SPEAKER AT W.M.S.

CIATION REPORTS A YEAR OF ~ SPLENDID SERVICE When the Ontario Branch of the St. John Ambulance Association held its annual meeting recently, a remark- able record of activity in the public weal was disclosed by its president, | Col. the Hon. H. A. Bruce, M.D., M.P. No less than 760 classes in First Aid and Home Nursing were conducted in 170 communities in 47 counties and districts in the province of Ontario. As a result of. the instruction given in these classes 19,238 certificates and higher awards were gained, an increase of 2,848 .over the previous year, It would be difficult to overem- phasize the value of such an out standing contribution to the public welfare of Ontario, for a trained First Aider is taught to recognize those cases of accidents and illness in which he can render effective assistance ef- ciently and promptly, improvising, where necessary, with such material as may be at hand. Naturally, his duties end when medical attention be- comes_available, but many indeed are the times when doctors have testified to the splendid work performed by certificate holders of the St. John Am- bulance Association in dealing, with emergent cases. A further step forward in the work of the Association has" been taken, since special war-time regulations now enable a teacher who holds the St. John Ambulance First Aid Cer- tificate to give instruction to the stu- dents in his school, and such students qualifying for First Aid Certificate of the Association on passing the Tegu- FOR YOUR : ; LONG DISTANCE CALLS Clear telep fone lines for ALL-OUT 'PRODUCTION Your' telephone is part of a vast interlocking sys tem now carrying an abnormal wartime load.
