Dr. Strafoliy was the son of the late John A: Strathy and Mrs. Stratuhy, Bedford Road, 'l`ononto. He was born in Barrie 42 years ago and received his `public and high school training there. After the death of hi-s father, the family moved to Toronto, where deceased attend- ed medical college, after which he took a post gratluate course in the old land. Returning` to Toronto he was attached to the Children s Hos- pital and the General Hospital, where he done splendid work. When the war broke out Dr. Stna:th,v, like his two brothers, was among the first to enlist, and he spent four yeans in hospital work and on the ring line. He was wounded and suffered from trench fever, which greatily under- mined his health. He returzieal to Canada in June, 1919, after note- wortihy service as a ldentenanrt-colonel of the C.A.M.C., and again took up his practice with the hospital and \V':lJth the Canada Life Insumnce Company. As in the case of so many others, the rigors of a long war campaign no doubt facilitated his untimely end. He contracted his fatal illness while visiting the sick and passed away peacefully on Thursday last. As a medical man and as a private citizen Dr. Strathy will be missed in Toronto. Respect the humble toad. He is one of the best friends a farmer can have. There are about 5,000 diexrent languages in the world. Money - oalk`s all of them. 7 , ' `.... ._..A_ uvwnw ;.

Do You Want FATHER OF RECTOR AT SHANTY BAY IS HONORED BY TRINITY] On Saiturday, June 6th, at a special convocation of Trinity Col- lege, the Degree of Doctor of Divin- ity was comferred on Rev. Canon P. L. Spence.r, father of Rev. C. R. Spencer, rector at Shanty Bay. Has a Fine Career In presenting; Canon Spencer for the degree, Provost Seager pointed out that the celebration of the jubi- lee of the Diocese of Niagara had been postponed by the death of Bishop W. R. Clark, and so far as he knew, the conferring of the De- gree of Doctor of Divinity upon Canon Percival Lawson Spencer was the only form which the jubilee was now takxing. Canon Spencer, he re- called, completed his course in di- winity in 1873, an-d in 1874 he was ordained to the priesthood, so he had completed 51 years of ministry. . That, in itself, was a noble gift from ' that Canon ) Providence, as great as had ever been conferred upon any man, and so Provost Seager felt it was tting Spencer should have been chosen to receive such recogni- tion from the university. Further, he pointed` ourt that last Monday marked the f-tieth anniversary of Canon Spencer's marriage, and he wished to congratulate both Mr. and Mrs. Spencer upon the occasion, par- ticularly as the sons and daugliters were now gathering for a further celebration of that event. /1 ru. , , , 1 ,,.:,.n.

Canon Spencer, he pointed out, had made a most remarkable contri- bution to the work of the Church of England; for four of his sons were now engaged in the work of the priesthood and three of his` diaughters were in missionary work. I The sons were Rev. E. P. S. Spen-i car, rector of Warterville, Conne.eti- cut; Rev. H. J. Spencer, rector of St. Margaret's church, Ohicago; Rev. C. R. Spencer, rector at Shanty Bay, and Rev. Victor Spencer, missionary at Niigata, Japan. Dhe latter saw service with the Flyinqy Corps during the war. Of the daughters, Miss E. E. Spencer was formerly a mission` ary at Niigata, Japan, and was n-ow a deaconess wirth the Episcopal church in the States; Miss Florence A. Spencer was on the missionary staff in Japan, and another daughter was the wife of Rev. H. H. Corey, who was also a missionary in Japan. The whole family were returning home to celebrate -the golden wed- The Northern Advance LEAGUE LEADERS IBEATEN BY 1 SCRATCH TEAM FROM FACTORY THE LATE DR. G. C.

I """' " ` In replying on behalf of the Dio- cese of Niagara, Rev. Canon Broug- h-alll said he felt that it was a great encoura.-gement to the younger mem- bers of the clergy to know that a man of great modesty, who had never souiglmt to thrust himself for- ward, but who had alway gone about his work in a humble and painstak- ing` manner, should have been select- ed for such high honors. Trinity Cwollezge, he pointed out, had always done much for the Diocese of Nia- gara, particularly in late years, and wlhile he extended his thanks to Trinity, he felt sure that there never , was a time when the church stood in greater need of Trinity, or when ' Trinity stood in greater need of the `I ` church. Indebted to Trinity In accepting the degree and ex- tending his thanks, Rev. Canon Spenlceir declared he was greatly in- debted to Trinity College, on his own behaLf as well as for the sake of his family. Thanks to Trinity, they stood a united famiy. He sketch- ed the growth of the Diocese of Nia- gara during its fty years, pointing out how it had progressed, and giv- ing as an illustration the fact that when he rsrt took up his wank fty years ago there were only 4,000 comxmunicanms, who had now in- creased to 20,000, while there was an increase in the number of church- es from 82 to 110. i In Days of Yore (From the Advance, June 17, 1875) Judge A1`-(lag11, Hamilmon Stewart, Esq., and Mr. H.
