A meeting of the teachers of Hal- dimand county was held in the High School, Cayuga, to consider the form- ing of a teachers' federation for the county. The proposition met with general approval, and the Haldimand Teachers’ Federation was formed. The aim of the Federation will be to raise the status of teachers and further the laims of education.

One point emphasized in the discus- sion was that, in order to accom- plish their aims, the teachers must stand by one another, keep track of the schools in the county or out ot it, and it any board ot trustees saw fit to lower the sal.try paid, the teach- rs would avoid that school. Forty teachers were in attendance. Welland Press-According to a Mail and Empire desatch, George Stephens, a hairdresser, aged 35, who lives in Bristol, England, is anxious to attempt the perilous feat bt going over Niagara Falls in a barrel. Ste- phens is in earnest about it, and al- ready has his passage booked for Canada tor the 18th of June. He expects to take the joy ride towards the end of June or aroun dthe first of July. He has already done other hazardous feets, states the dispatch, such as going into a lion's den and kissing the lion-a live one too. The Falls hold no terrors for him and he is quite confident that he will come through the ordeal unscathed. 'In connection with this it is interesting to note that going over Niagara in a barrel is ranked among the most tru- premely daring achievements the mind of man has thus been able to conjure up, only one man has done it and lived. Bobby Leach made the journey in 1911. "Bobby, by the way, was arrested at the Falls last week for trying to smuggle whiskey into the states, and in company with a negro dhauffeur was locked up with- out bail. He is at present awaiting trial. Niagara Falls, April 19.-Mrs. Elizabeth Ann King, 94 years old died Sunday at the home of her grand son, A .R. Cook, formerly of St. Cath- arines, now residing at No. 532 Fourth street. Mrs. King was the daughter ot Rachael Vroman Rus- sell, the first white woman born at Queenston Heights, and she was the granddaughter of Colonel Vromamn, who fought under General Brock at the battle ot Queenston Heights. She was horn near Lundy’s Lane on the Canadian side of the border on April 22, 1826. When a very young girl Mrs. King, who was then then Eliza- beth Ann Russell, married Charles Cook of the 43rd light infantry which was stationed at Lundy’s Lane. With him she went to England, where a son and daughter. were born to them. Cook died and she returned to this country with her children and in 1870 married John Butler Jonas, a ’hotel- man of Niagara Falls, Ont. He died and in 1895 she married John King, who survives her. For many years it was Mrs. King's boast that she who survives her. For many years it was Mrs. King's boast that she had been presented to Queen Victoria and that she had danced with King Edward when he was Prince of Wales. When the present Prince of Wales visited Niagara Falls, Ont., last fall she was taken by her rela- tives to the p11blic reception to the Prince in Queen Victoria park and presented to him by Mayor Hairy P. Stephens of Niagara Falls, Ont. Tre Prince was delighted to meet her and Wednesday, April 28th, 1920 This Woman's Letter Tells You How To Pass The Crisis Safely. Laaeelleis, P.Q. - "During the Change of Life I felt so weak and run down I could hardly do my work. The per- spiration would pour over my face so that I eouldn't Bee what I was doing. We live on a farm, so there is Iota to do, but many who felt as I did would have been in bed. I took Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound and it did me a world of good. I tried other remedies but I put egetable Compound ahead of them all, and I tell every one I know how much good it has done me."-- Mrs. DUNCAN BROWN, Lascelles, Prov. Quebec. ’ Such warning symptoms as sense of suffocation, hot flashes, headaches, backaches, dread of impendiryt e.Iril, timidity, sounds in the ear, palpitation of the heart, sparks before the eyes, irregularities, constipation, .variable Si gilt, weakness and dizziness sho d e heeded b middle-ag‘ed women, and let Lydia E.
