Mantle took place from the residence of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Teel, to Hei‘se Hill Cemetery last Saturday. A ceaseless striving on the way, A love-crowned longing day by day, A burst of laughter, set in tears, The memory of a few short years; A gleam of sunshine, n the morn To cheer the weary heart forlorn, A shade of sorrow in between ‘To cloud the brow of Hope serene; A birth bright as the buds in May, A grave. a dear one laid away.â€" The many heartaches in the strife, A smile, a tear and this is life. But life is more. The love of God Lights sweet with hope the path we trod, And tho’ dark shadows deep may frown .

Many associate it with the age-old festival of Candlemas. To others it is the month of hope be- cause each day is getting visibly longer and brings with it those suâ€" perb sunrises and sunsets â€" one of the signs that spring is on its way. The groundhog wakes, stretches, probably yawns and has a good scratch and then peeps at the world. Another havbinger of spring. In the middle of the month comes the festival of Saint Valentine, which has, for ages, been associated with the mating of young things. T’wo parsons were having lunch at a farm. The farmer’s wife cooked a couple of chickens, saying that the "family could' dine on the remains afâ€" ter the visitors had gone, but the ‘hungry ministers ate them al-l. On the recommendation of its Ag- ricultural Committee, York County Council decided to approach the Pro- vincial Minister of Agriculture with a request that he order experiments carried out for the growing and cul- tivating of such crops as Spearmint or vegetable and root seed in the Township of King, where a compre- hensive survey was recently made re- garding the fitness of waste lands for production. Thousands of acres of rich reclaimed garden land in the northern municipality are also avail- able, but at present are producing an over-supply of perishable vegetables. ‘ Farmer (growling)â€"“No wonder ’He has two sons in the ministry.” “The chief; concern of government is the making of laws ‘to straighten out the mess it caused by‘ making other laws. | Later the farmer was conducting his visitors about the place when a rooster ibegen a lusty crowing: One of the Ministers â€" mighty proud of himself."
