Fraser Travelled to Province in Ox Cart, Near Century Ago Stratford, Jan. 12.--John A. Fras- er, Sr, 94, of Shakespeare, father of John A. Fraser, M.P. for Cariboo, died during the week. In the passing of Mr. Fraser, Canada loses another of that fast twindling band of hardy bioneers who hewed homes out of the Ontario hardwood bush. His family settled in Perth County 88 years ago, having arrived a year earlier from Scotland. Landing at New York, the family, bound for Up- per Canada, travelled by ox team to the south shore of Lake Ontario, Crossing over on a barge they struck the old Huron Road which was then in course of construction between Hamilton and Goderich. At Shakespeare, seven miles east of Stratford, the family struck north three miles into the virgin bush. There the grandfather of John A. Fraser filed on 100 aeres of Crown land, all of which was covered thick- ly with maple, beech and butternut. Mr. Fraser's father died when he was 16 years of age. Three months later his mother passed on and he, the eldest of seven children, of whom the youngest was three months old, was left with a family to raise, and at the same time he had to make a living for them off a bush farm. In 1863 he married a daughter of a neighboring farmer and they raised a family of mine. For 13 years they remained on the Fraser homestead. In 1914 he turn- ed over the place to Peter, the youngest son remaining at home, and with his wife went into. the town of Shakespeare to live. Mrs. Fraser died in April, 1924, a year after the celebration of their diamond wed- ding, a reunion which brought mem- bers of the Fraser family from dif- ferent parts of Canada and the Un- ited States. New York City uses 880,000,000 gallons of water daily. You see, speakeasy floors: must be washed and scrubbed every morning.-- Border Cities Star, Bodies' Called for Eleven o'clock in the Council Chamber to Receive Offi- cial Declaration of Munici- pal Election -- Technical School By-law to Be Dealt With By Incoming Body Both the 1928 city council and the 1929 mayor and aldermen-eiect have been called to meet at the city council chambers on Monday, January 14, at 11 o'clock in ihe morning, The old council will re- ceive the official declaration of the municipal election, and then the 1929 body will be called upon to assume office, After the committees are draft- ed, the meeting will adjourn until 8 o'clock in (he evening for the consideration of business, School Bylaw Although the third reading of the' by-law authorizing the issuing of debentures for $261,600 for the erection of a technical school, was left over at the last councii meet- ing 0 a joint meeting of the city council and the Board of Educa- tion, it is now understood that the 1928 council will not consider the question further but will leave it to the 1929 council for considera- tion of (he third reading of this Ly-law, Regime Ends It is not thouyht proballe that the 19.8 council wil. meet again for the transaction of this or any other business, except to official.y hand over (he government of the city to the new body mext Monday morning, ---------------- MANY LETTERS To OSHAWA ADDRESS NOT DELIVERED Some 200 Letters Sent to Dead Letter Office When Not Called For Despite the fact that Oshawa's postal department overcame many difficulties during the recent rush of mails, there was one detail which could not be overlooked regarding Oshawa citizens' connection with the system. More than 300 unclaimed let- ters, or letters for which recipients could not be found, were returned on January 10 to the dead letter office. This was the result of either incom- plete knowledge upon the part of the sender, or ignorance on the proper addressing of the letter, Although a great number of these were received from out of the city, there were also a number mailed in Oshawa. Address Incomplete To aid the department in locating the proper person for whom a letter is mailed, it was pointed out that cit- izens should pay a great deal of at- tention to addressing the envelopes, making sure that name, address, town or city with all "out of the ordinary" information is' complete upon the face of the envelopes. Another point was raised this morning by T. F. Mathi- son, pastmaster, who stated that many either refuse outright or ne- glect to place the return address up- on the letter, so that in case the let- ter was lost or confused in the mails, it might be returned without being opened at the dead letter office, : gues Practically all of the new spring catalogues, citculars and calendars have been posted and are almost all delivered. The annual rush for this class of material generally follows the Christmas influx of world mail. NO DRUDGERY IN FUTURE, SAYS FORD Declares Farming Needs to Be Completely Revolu- ionized New York, Jan. 12.--A world in which no one smokes or discusses prohibition, where farmers no longer farm and 1 8s no 1 cook and where machines take care of the drudgery is outlined by Henry Ford in his book "My Philosophy of Industry," just published. The great problem in the home to- day," the Detroit capitalist points out, "is too much drudgery. We shall soon find a way to do much of the cooking outside and deliver it in a hot and appetizing condition at meal time at no greater cost." The old farm is likewise due for a big change, according to Mr. Ford. "Farming needs to be completely revolutionized," he says. "Large cor- porations whose sole business it will be to perform the operations of plow- ing, planting, cultivating and har- vesting will supersede the individual farmer or groups of farmers will combine to form their work in a wholesale manner. This is the prop- er way to do it and the only one in which economic freedom can be won." n Monday To Officially Receive Reins of Government, - From the 1928 Council " Joint Meeting of the Two| Married GATES--MITCHELL-- On Mon- day, January 7th, 1928, at White by, Ontario, by the Rev, T, G.
