Hoy Layed To Rest Thursday ' ^^ eugEnia A deep gloom was cast over the vicinity whsn the news spread that Mrs. Alex. Hey had passed away to her Eternal Home on Monday night, October 8th, in the Toronto General Hospital, where she had been admit-' ted only a few days previous to re- ceive treatment. For a number of years Mrs. Hoy had been subject to asthma, but it was only a month or so ago that dropsy set in. She was under the doctor's care at her home before enuring the hospital. She bore her sufferings with great fortitude. Her actions and her say- mgs at times led us to believe tha; she knew her time on earth was 15m- 'ted, yet she littie comnlained. On Saturday, October 6th, Mr. Hoy was called to Toronto owing to Mrs. Hoy> serious condition. On Monday ev- ening Mr. Hoy was mformed by the hospital doctors that he could re- turn home for three or four days, *^hat his wife seemed somewhat bel- ter. By the time he arrived, he re- ceived the sad message that his wife had passed away. He immed- iately returned again to Toronto t)y motor. The remains were brougtiT up on Tuesday evening and were talcn to her late residence. The late Mrs. Hoy, whose maiden name was Miss Ethel Mildred Parlia- ment, eldest daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Parliament, was 42 years of age. She was very in- dustrious, at times her ambition was beyond her strength. Service was held â-  in the Unitet: Church, where the remains w.?re tak- en on Thursday afternoon. Her pastor, Rev. Jos. Harrower officiat- ed at the church and grave, preach- ing a very comforting sermon. The choir sang .the beautiful sacred hymns "Asleep in Jesus" and "Rock of Ages." Interment took place beside her mother in Mount Zion Cemetery. The floral tributes, which were numerous and lovely, showing re- spect and love for the deceased were Wreath from husband and daughter, wreath from her four sisters, wreath from Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Hoy and Mr. and Mrs. Robt. Phillips and fam- ily, wreath from employees of Thom- son and Norris, Toronto, wreath from Eugenia friends and neighbors. A sheaf from tha three aunts in Buf- falo.

I; is true thai some work can be dispatched with very little thought, but when done in this fashion, it helps to turn us into automatons, whereas if done with thought, it is educational. The work- er who uses only his hands, never gets far up the ladder. Many a one who started as a manual worker, however, but who made his brains go into partnership with his hands, is now a prominent figure among those who count. One of the secrets of success is do all the thinking 'pos- sible instead of talking the more pop- ular way of getting along with as little as possible. Harvest Home Services were eon- ducted in the .Anglican church here on Sunday last by Rev. Mr. Pogson. A large congregation attended.
