Croft is entitled to premier place. While in Goderich, he seems to have been an active worker in every orâ€" ganization that had for its object, the welfare of the citizens. Men of his calibre are scarce and Gocerichâ€" ites will look forward to the day "Mr. Croft," said Judge Costello, another speaker, _ "was one of the first men 1 met when I came to Godâ€" crich and I thought he was one of the finest looking men I ever saw." The judge went on to say the only organizations Mr. Croft was not â€" a member of were the Ladies‘ Aid and the Knights of Columbus, and if he stayed in Goderich another year, he doubtless would be joining these alâ€" Referring to Mr. Croft, Mr. Parâ€" sons, the chairman for the evening, said he was one of the most imporâ€" tant men in Goderich; he was active in church work, fraternal societies, in child welfare, the father of amaâ€" teur sports, a golfer and a fisherâ€" man. In the activities of the town, Mr. Croft was always there, and Goderich was losing one of the best of men by his removal. Encoriums fell, thick and fast, up on Mr. S. D. Croft at a banquet in the Eedford Hotel, Goderich, when he was the guest of the Board _ of Trade and the Lion‘s Club. His transference from Goderich to Brantâ€" fordé by the C.N.R. was the reason for the gathering of some 83 represâ€" entative citizens and visiting railâ€" way officials to wish him and his family, health and happiness in their new surroundings.
