During the past week two active business careers were suddenly terminated and as a reâ€" sult the community mourns the loss of two of its most prominent and influential citizens, in the passing of Waiter J.. Snider, miller, of Conestogo, and for many years township clerk of, Woolwich Township, and Oscar H. Vogt, manufacturer, of Elmira. Both were men of solid worth and enjoyed in an unusual degree the regard of their fellow citizens. _ The late Waiter J. Snider, who came of a widely known and highly esteemed family which has for many years been prominent in the business and municipal affairs of the eounâ€" ty, was a fine type of citizen. Of the highest integrity and possessed of a commendable pubâ€" lic spirit, he served the community with conâ€" spicuous zeal and success in the offices of trust he held while in business he was progressive and alert and attained a substantial measure of success. \ F In the passing of the late Oscar H. Vogt, who was also the member of a family which has contributed in a material degree to the upâ€" building of the community, the county mourns the loss of another outstanding citizen who through his business acumen had risen to a place of much prominence in the industrial life of the community. The late Mr. Vogt also found time to associate himself with organizations having for their object the promotion of the welfare of the community and he was a real asset to the county of his birth. Both of these leaders in the community deservedly enjoyéd the genuine regard of their fellow citizens, who will sincerely mourn their passing. That Kitchener and Waterloo will fittingly celebrate the Diamond Jubilee of Confederaâ€" tion is evident in the plans being formulated. The councils of the two municipalities are heartily coâ€"operating by making the required grants towards expenditures while various orâ€" ganizations are also lending their aid so that the event may be adequately observed in this community. Arrangements are being made for a big parade in the morning in which the school children of the Twin City will participate while the musical societies of the two places are making preparations for other events which promise a day worthy of the occasion. With the capable and representative comâ€" mittee in charge and the coâ€"operation being given generally, the outlook is bright for a celeâ€" bration which will fully measure up to the sigâ€" nificance of the event. .__ At Galt the other day the Superintendent of Development of the C.N.R. spoke optimisticâ€" ally of the possibilities of Canada‘s latent*reâ€" sources and declared that research was fundaâ€" mental to business. He pointed to the eminence achieved by various countries who paid parâ€" ticular attention to research work as an aid to inventions. "We are today standing on the threshold of a new century of science, of invenâ€" tion and of the use of substitutes in manufacâ€" ture, which calls for research," said the speaker. "What we must talk among ourselves is more research because it is fundamental to business," he declared. The value of research work is unquestionâ€" ed and the countries that have devoted special attention to it have profited very materially. Discoveries are constantly being made as a reâ€" sult of experimenting and research work, which are proving invaluable in assisting inâ€" dustries and in making for the profitable deâ€" velopment of the resources of various counâ€" tries. Canada could well devote more time and effort to research work and display a little more vision in developing her wonderful resources. Following is the school report of 8. 8.

The obligation was formerly optional with municiâ€" pal councils but the lack of uniformity led to the present legislation under which the lightâ€" ing of all vehicles has been made obligatory on the highways and on the roads between dusk and dawn. e President Coolidge of the Unitéd States recently enunciated the foreign policy of that country as being one devoted to the protection of American citizens and the maintenance of peace. He declared that wherever an American citizen© goes "the duties of our government must follow him" and that the protection of lives and property of American citizens constiâ€" tuted the main problems of the United States I‘government in both Nicaragua and China. He added that "our government has usually been too remiss, rather than too active, in supportâ€" . ing the lawful rights of its citizens abroad." While opposition to the legislation has been voiced in the rural districts, the risk inâ€" volved, With the constantly increasing auto traffic, on the part of vehicles travelling with out lights, is such that the legislation is in the interests of all who use the public highâ€" ways. Accidents will be avoiged and probably lives saved by the putting into effect of the new regulations. . | "One of the weaknesses in connection with | our summer school courses is the inability to \ give proper training in conversational French. \For some time the department has been enâ€" ‘ deavoring by the adoption of various methods ]to overcome the difficulty, and has reached a conclusion that it is desirable that we try out l,the method of carrying on the course in the |Province of Quebec, where the teachersâ€"inâ€" j training, living in the atmosphere and in conâ€" | tact with Frenchâ€"speaking people, will have the | best opportunity of acquiring the proper accent 1so necessary to the teaching and use of any | language." It is interesting to have this declaration from President Coolidge at this time when the United States is being called upon to protect her citizens especially in China. Like Great Britain she is desirous of pursuing a policy which will preserve the peace but at the same time considers it her first duty to protect her citizens resident in foreign lands. Last week Premier Ferguson made the inâ€" teresting announcement that the Ontario Deâ€" partment of Education will this summer hold a summer course in oral French in the city of Quebec for several weeks, open to teachers of French in the continuation schools, high schools and collegiate institutes of Ontario. This was nmade possible through the courtesy and coâ€"operation of the educational authorities of Quebec and Premier Ferguson éxpressed the hope"that the greater opportunity for pracâ€" tice in conversational French while living in a French environment might prove of great adâ€" vantage to the teachers of Ontario and the pupils under them. _ In commenting on the arrangement, Preâ€" mier Ferguson said: . According to the February statement of the chartered banks of Canada, another new high mark for savings deposits in Canada was registered. Since the middle of last year the savings deposits have been steadily rising and at the end of February they touched a new peak of $1,389,609,017. The reduction in the operating loss on the Canadian Government Merchant Marine eviâ€" dences the economical and efficient manner in which it is being operated and will further enhance the reputation of the management of the National Railway which has charge of the Merchant Marine. It is hoped that the manageâ€" ment will be_gble to transform the present deficit into a profit in the not too distant future. There are 46 vessels now in operation. THE FOREIGN POLICY OF THE UNITED STATES ~ TEACHERS TO VISIT QUEBEC EDITORIAL NOTES after this ceremony twentyâ€"two men and two teams commencel the planting of 35,000 pine trees.

IN COWâ€"TESTING Excellent results, yet some very wide variations were the result of the first year‘s cowâ€"testing in Brant, conducted by‘ the Brant branch of the Department of Agriculture. The report shows that of the 187 cows in 15 herds, 28 cows had a total production of at least ten thousand pounds of milk and 49 cows had butter fat of 300 pounds or better. The highest milk record cow gave 13,602 pounds milk, and valuing this at a price of $2 per hundredweight, the income would be $272.04, while valuing the production of the low cow at the same price, the income for 5,138 pounds milk would be $102.76, a difference of $169.28. A study of theâ€" records supplied shows that the highâ€"producing cow is a pure bred Holstein, Beven years old, and the lowâ€"producer is a grade Jersey two years old. & EXCELLENT RESULTS PRICES LOOKED FOR The hope of cheaper liquid re freshments of a stimulating kind, after May 16, appears to be waning, in fact an increase in prices rather than a decrease is expected. The Ontario liquor commission is en: gaged at present in the revision of the price list for government disâ€" pensaries. INCREASE IN LIQUOR The additions to price are underâ€" stood to be based on the anticipated added expense of handling and sellâ€" iing liquors under the new system. One comment on the present prices was to the effect that the dispensary charges for champagne were little short of ridiculous. According to the price list effective since February 3, 1927, Clicquot, Heidsick, Mumm‘s, Pol Roger and Pommery have all been selling at $3.25 a reputed quart, and $1.75 a reputed pint. ‘Phat these prices will ‘be increased seemed quite certain. Increases of from 25 cents to & dollar a quart were prophesied for the more popular varieties of disâ€" tilled ‘liquors. â€" Try Sulphur On An Eczema Skin EVANGELICAL CHURCH ELECTS NEW BOARDS The Monday session of the Canâ€" ida Conference of the Evangelical Church, which met at Sebringville recently, was occupied largely with routine business, and so much detail was there that the sessions conâ€" tinued during the greater part of Tuesday. The Missionary Society of the Conference also met Monday afterâ€" noon, and elected the following officers: President, Rev. A. W. Sauer; Viceâ€"President, Rev. E. D. Becker; Secretary, Rev. A. E.

Closing Session At the closing session of the anâ€" nual conference of the Evangelical €hurch on April 26th, much importâ€" ant business was attended to. Reâ€" ports on catechetical instruction urged greater interest in this deâ€" partment, the Evangelical League of Christian Endeavor was commended and the Ladies‘ Aid and the W.M.8. were congratulated on their good work. Any breaking out of the skin, ‘even flery, itching ecsema, can be quickly overcome by applying Menâ€" thoâ€"Sulphur, declares a noted skin specialist. Because of its germ desâ€" troying properties, this sulphur preâ€" paration instantly brings ease from skin irritation, soothes and heals the ectema right up and leaves the akin clear and smooth. _ It seldom fails to relieve the torâ€" ment without delay.
