They are perhaps classed as flowering shrubs and have i place as the boundary of a formal garden or amongst shrubbery. As these roses can be left undisturbed for years, the ground should be well and deeply dug and well rotted man- ure mixed with the soil before plant- ing. The plants can be put in eithei in spring or fall and if they are on their own roots they will spread by suckers and make fine clumps in a few years. They need very littie .-are, except weeding, and are not susceptible to disease or insect pests. The varieties mentioned here are hard v at the Central Experimental Farm at Ottawa, without protection. Harrison's Yellow is the well- known yellow rose so of en seen tn old gardens. Seedlings of this orig- inated at the Kx;,ecimental Farm at Ottawa, have proved equally hardy Orinda is one of the best and hat i ream-colored flowers.

"Well Done Corkill" The following article was taken from the current issue of The Bulletin published by the Ontario Hydro Com- mission and refers to one well known in this locality. "Joe Corkill, patrolman, located at Owen Sound, is to-day a very pleased man. His faithfulness in practising resuscitation gave him the knowledgt and confidence in applying the prone pressure method whereby he was in- strumental in keeping alive Ernest Johnston, an eight-year-old boy, who had disappeared beneath tho ice ot the Sydenham river. This knowledge and its application enabled Ernest to be returned to his parents. Let u. ?^Ve you Joe's own report of the incident: "I was within a block and a half oi the river on the morning in question when I heard the Fire Department coming urt the street. As they pass- ^d me, I noticed they had a boat on their truck and conc-luded that some- one had fallen in the river. I ran to the river and found that a young boy had just been taken out of the water ind the firemen had commenced work .n him. When I arirved, the firemen I -eemed well satisfied for me to take I charge and I started working on the body without delay. The firemen had been doing the best they could, but appeared to have no conception ot the proper way to change over, and I realized that every second was pre- :ious. Consequently I worked until one of the local Hydro Commission linemen, Mr. Fred Breckenborough came on the scene and he relieved me, twice after I had explained the proper method of changing over without los- ing time. After about twenty min- 'utes work, the doctor arrived, and at that time the case looked hopeless. However, we kept up the work inces- santly, Mr. Breckenborough relieving me at intervals, and after about forty or forty-five mintes from the timt- resuscitation had been commenced, 1 noticed a sl-.'^ht response from the- patient. I drew the doctor's atten- tion and he asked me to rest, but to maintain my position again if respir- ition failed. During this period we had a number of hot water bottles around the body, and as many blank- ets as possible without interfering with our work. In a few seconds the boy tried to cry and the doctor -oncluded he had recovered sufficient- ly to be taken to his home nearby, where he made a complete recovery. I called on him the next morning and he could not understand why he was not allowed to go out to play as he felt first class. He did not even contract a cold from his exposure." The Late John Conn On Wednesday morning, June the first there passed away suddenly at the home of W. J. Conn, his beloved uncle, John Conn. He was the young- est son of the late Mr. and Mrs. John Conn of the third line of Osprey, he was born on July 19, 1858. He leaves to mourn his loss, one aged brother, Wm. Conn, and several nephews and nieces. He was of a kind disposi- tion and was highly respected by al' who knew him, his sudden death wa: caused by a sickness, resulting 'roni a fall on the cement bridge from a load of logs on Oct. 7, 1930, which caused injuries to his head. HIP passing cast a sad gloom over thi entire community. The funeral left his nephew's home on June 4 for the church of England cemetery, Maxwell The service was conducted by the Rev M. F. Oldham and Rev. Dean. Rev. Mr. Dean and Mr. Eby sanp an anthem "God's way is the bes way," a request of deceased.

ABSENT MEMBERS Press dispatches during the closing weeks of the session have referred re- eatedly to the small number of members in the House when important discussions were taking place. In the last few days before prorogation when millions of dollars in estimates were rushed through and important egislation passed, the attendance has been smaller than ever. Wednesday the house was called on to vote on want of confidence motion on the government's farm policfes by Miss Agnes Macphail and the record? show that 64 members cast votes. This means that out of a House of 245 there were 181 absentees. Talk about cutting the size of the Provincial Legislature! A start might be made on the House of Com- mons, where half the total number ot members, or less, usually transact the country's business. In the western slates there are many farmers using horses this year because they cannot afford to buy fuel and oil for tractors. It's a fact, too. that there have been some great old harvests where the horse has pro- vided all the power. Mr. W. F. Albright, of Carrick, who has been gradually losing his vision for some years, due to cataracts, un- derwent an operation at Toronto last Saturday by Dr. Gratton, specialist.

Today, Chevrolet is maintaining its lead in sales because, with prices reduced and quality unchanged, Chevrolet hat increased its lead in I'alm*. For the first four months of 1932, Chevrolet has outsold the next leading car more than two-to-onc. Drive a Chevrolet bow much more it offers then you can find elsewhere in the lowest price field. Smarter styling Chevrolet emulates the modern lines and modish fittings of expensive custom cars. Finer coachtcork for Chevrolet, alone in its field, has bodies by Fisher, with their lasting, quiet hardwood-and-stcel construction.
