MILLER At the Community Memorial Hos- pital, Port Perry, Ont., on Monday, Nov. 18, 1957, God quiets took home to Himself a rare and lovely spirit in the person of Florence Gertrude Claughton wife of the late Joel C. Miller, in her seventy-ninth year. Mrs. Miller, a life-long resident of Reach Township and latterly of Manchester, was known far and wide for her gaiety of spirit, "buoyant faith and radiant Christian witness. As an active and most faithful member of the United Church of Canada, her love for her Lord and His Church sent her out into the community to serve and help all in need. Her youthful outlook, quick wit, warm understanding and kindly "in: terest in and concern for people all bore witness to her personal committ- ment to Christ. This boundless love for and faith in her Lord shone of Him to all who were privileged to know her. \ Naturally those who-knew her best --and there is a large family connee- tion--loved her most. She was a wise, loving, understanding wife & mother, a true friend and a noble servant of her Lord. At length, when the journey of life grew a little long and tiring, God lovingly took her to Himself leaving with us the fragrant memory of a life well lived and a trust faithfully kept. Mrs. Miller was predeceased by a son and daughter--Ralph and Doro- thy--and is survived by three daugh- ters; Vera (Mrs. Harold Honey-, Sea- grave; Meta (Mrs. Walter Howsam), Manchester; Retta (Mrs. Alfred Higgs), Oshawa. "seven grandchildren amd six great grandchildren. The pallbearers were Harold Honey, Alfred Higgs, Robert Howsam, Ralph Honey, Donald Carnegie and Howard Forder. The memorial service, held in MeDermott-Panabaker Chapel at Port Perry was conducted by the Rev. J. K. Braham. Interment was in Pine shall; Myrtle Palmer, P.M. organist Grove Cemetery, Prince Albert. Headlamp ming Is Easy w with New Device : Mother can aim the headlamps on the family car today just about as fast as a trained mechanic does it with new mechanical aimers developed by the headlamp manufac- turers. She can do it in less than five minutes, and accurately, too! Here, Mrs. R. B. Bailie, wife of the Manitoba Commis- sioner of Motor Vehicles, and her daughter Nancy, prove the point. They were prize winners in a headlamp aiming contest sponsored by the Automobile Manufacturers Association at a recent conference of The- American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators in Roanoke, Virginia.
