McILRAITH are showing some Repairing as usual Reduction Phone 67 gentlemen at heart _ Fraser Miller was not an ordinary boy around town who grows up and is known as a "good fellow," plays on the athletic teams of his. town, goes to college and then into the professions or business life. His nature was complex. His sentiments were idealistic, and his tastes were artisâ€" tic, but with it there was a happy tendâ€" ency to the odd chance, the glimmer of danger, the lure of the open spaces and the tascination of far away lands. â€" He liked to ride the most spirited horse his father had, and we can picture him now diving from a dizzy point on the west end bridge into the Saugeen river. He travâ€" elled in South America among other places andâ€"swam rivers in which sharks and crocodiles abound. â€" He wrote home from the western front that "the grub" was good to any one who had eaten things that almcst crawled in South America . Combined with a boyish railâ€" lery olf C:rxspt')‘s!tlo:tld thaex:: was a rather cynical streak in him the suggestion of lonesomeness about his figurgeg. . He was an artist by profession and had he lived might have made his mark some day. Canblr:;d with these qualities he :r:'counegt.uh_.a degree and a genuine Pte. Fraser Miller, son of the late H. H. Miller and Mrs miller, of Hanover is reported as having died of wounds at No. 4 Casualty clearing station, F: rance, on May 20th. He went overseas early in the _ war with a draft to the famous Princess Patricia‘s Canadian Light Infantry Batâ€" talion and was wounded in Sseptember, 1916, and . on partialiy recovering irom the effects of his wound he served with the field post office at the base. _ As far as his friends know, he was still there, and not until the telegram was received , by his mother on Wednesday morning ; was it known that he had returned to | duty at the front. _ He was an artist by |profession and possessed a talent that |\ would have placed him in the leading | ranks of the profession. â€" He had travelled extensively in South America and was of an adventurous, though quiet disposition. His father, the late H. H. Milier, M. P. Hanover, died in Septomber, 1916, about the same time as Fraser was first woundâ€" ed. Mr R. B. Miller, Owen Sound, is a grandfather of the deceased. One brother Mr Moore A. Miller, barrister, Weyburn, Sask., and one sister Mrs W. E. Adams, of Vancsuver, B.C, and his mother are the near surviving relatives, and to them the sympathy of eve:ryone will go out in their sacra bereavement. The Hanover Post has the following kindly and warm appreciation ; Pte. Fraser R. Miller, of Princess Pats in Casualty Lists Son of Late H. H. Miller Dies of Wounds This discrediting of idleness cannot be without its beneficial effects in the fature. The sin of having ‘nothing to do" has become impressed on the nations too thoroughly to permit of its again becoming fashionabls. The world is going to be more a world of workers and life is going to be better woLrtb living because of the change. â€"BEx. Laws have not been required to force women into usefal occupations ; their own sense of the fitness of things and the needs of their men overseas have been safticient. Practically all women to day are workers. It has been said that war is the woild care for idleness. There is trath in the statement which becomes more evident every day. Theold idea that the community owed a livâ€" ing to everyone, worthy or unworthy bas disappeared, and i1 its place there is a new axiom which says eyeryone owes his life to the community, or some hing to the same effect. _aâ€"â€"With the date of general regisâ€" tration settled and all arrangements under way, is it not time the country was given some definite intormation concerning its objects and what the Government proposes to do with the knowledge it reccives ?â€"Advertiser.

We regret to shronicle the deach of one of our young boys in the person of Geo. Brunt, eldest son of Mr and Mrs Jas. Brunt who passed away on Wed nesday eyening, May 29 at the age of 18 years. The funeral took place on Friday and was largely attended. The service ~was eonducted by Rev. F. Ashton speaking from the text Matt, May 3i1st, 1918 Before we now part we wish you to acâ€" cept from us this purse of money. Keep us at Aberdeen in your memory when you are far away from us. Our prayers follow you daily wherever you may go. Signed in behalf of the community by Dan McLean, Jas. Ewens, Robt, Noble, Robt, Lawson. Our educational training has alway$ been along the paths of the art of peace. This war has been thrust upon us by a ruthless people, whose glory is to war upon the weak, and who for forty years have striven with a zeal worthy of a betâ€" ter cause to prepare themselves to throttle freedom and to put the clock of civilizaâ€" tion back a thousand years to the savage dark ages when might alone was right. We are proud so many of Canada‘s sons have gone and are going over to do their bit in the defenee of right against might.§ Those of us too old to go will remain to! keep the home fires burning and to await | the homeâ€"coming of our brave boys when peace has been secured and proclaimed 4 We trust you may be among those to re turn to anxious parents and loving family ties. May God protect and keep you and bring you safely home again That our boys have been able to acquit themselves so well at every turn, and against such fearful odds reflects much credit upon them and the sturdy stock from which they have sprung. Yesterday evening we met at the home: of our schoolmate, Will Edge, and toâ€" | night we are met at your home for a| similar purpose, which is to present to you | our best respects and good wishes on the | eve of your departure to take your place| among Canada‘s soldiers of the king. So | short a time it is since you were among‘ the school boys at Aberdeen that we can | scarcely realize your arrival at the years l of young manhood. | Yet so it is for more seems now crowdâ€" [ ed into one brief month than into a year | in former time. _ So rapid has been the | transition that boys, who a few years ago were barefooted happy youngsters at ourT school, are toâ€"day leaders of battalions in | the greatest war the world bas ever | |‘ known. Signed in behalf of the community. Abe Crutchley Thos. Johnston, John Clark Willie McDonald Mr William D. Haslett, ______ Aberdeen, Ont‘ Dear Friend and Schoolmate Allow us then before parting to preâ€" sent you with this purse of money which you will use to keep the memory of Aberâ€" deen fresh and green in your memory. We will follow your career with much interest, knowing full well that you will do your duty in a military capacity as manfully as you have always done in your capacity as a citizen of Bentinck. You may be depended upon to add fresh laurels to the ancient and respected name of "Edge." _ When the last shot has been fired and the last battle won, we trust you may be among those spared to return to home and friends and enjoy that lasting peace so much desired by all. We have just learned that it is your intention to go to Toronto next Monday, there to don the King‘s uniform and to enter upon such a course of training as will enable you to become an effective soldier in the defence of your home and native land. _ We your friends and neighâ€" bors are gathered here toâ€"night to extend to you our best wishes and kindest reâ€" gards and to assure you of the continuâ€" ance of the same for the future. _ It is a matter of much regret that such a conâ€" dition of affairs now exists in this world as makes it necessary to break up so many homes and communities This condition has not â€"been of our choosing, nor even remotely caused by us ; but it is ours as true Canadians with the red. British blood in our veins to endeavor to ; assist in bringing order out of the present | world chaos, so that peace may be reâ€" r stored and liberty be enabled to live and | freedom to prevail throughout this troubâ€"| led world. | A large gathering ‘of friends met at the homes of two of our young men last week to spend a social evening before bidding them ‘‘good bye" on their leaving under the Military Service Act,â€"On Thursday evening at the home of Willie Edge and on Friday evening at the home of Willie Haslett. _ Mr. Duncan McLean read the address at both places and Mr Abe Crutchley made the presentation to Wilâ€" lie Edge and Mr Jas. McDonald to Willie Haslett. Both young men made very feeling replies. The following are the addresses ; Mr Willie Edge, Aberdeen Dear Friend and Neighbor,â€" The Red Cross workers met at the schoolhouse last Thursday with 9 ladies present. â€" Collection amounted to $1.40 and twelvepairs of socks were given in.
