RESOLUTIONS ON THE DEATH OF
 PROF c. s. PLATT.
Newtown. Friday. November 1908

NEoOLUllONSO ON HE DEAIH UT
 PROF c. s. PLATT.
 At a meeting of the vestry of Trin. ity church. held on Friday evening, November 6, the following resolutions were unanimously adopted:
 Whereas, God in His wise providence has seen fit to take our beloved friend and fellow worker, Charles s. Platt, from the scene of his earthly life to the rest of Paradise, therefore,
 Resolved, That we place on the rec ord of this vestry our sincere appreci- ation of his. true worth as an earnest communicant of our church, a consis- tent member of our parish and an effic- tent organist and leader of our choir.
 For 25 years he has presided at our organ with skill and ability, thereby adding much to the beauty and dignity of the worship of the Church; untiring in his faithful and devoted attendance. with not only an unfagging interest in the musical part of the service but true reverence for all parts of the Church's worship. Though his hands no longer touch the keys to sound forth hymn of praise, wedding chime or funeral dirge, the memory of his faithfulness and his devotion will live always in the hearts of those who asso- ciate him with the organ and the church, where we feel so keenly sense of great loss.
 Though quiet and retiring in his man. ner, yet he figured prominently in all that concerned good citizenship in the town. As an active member of the Mems club the wisdom of his opinions was valued by his associates and his comments upoyi matters under discus sion were characterized by a refresh ing humor and originality.
 In many ways has his influence upon the young people of the town been great. A large number of them have had the advantage of his musical training and all have benefited by his keen interest in the educational work of the town. He was Chairman of the Board of Education and an influential member, and for many years President of the Library Association.
 While we record our sense of per- sonal sorrow and our consciousness that the loss to our Parish and Con- munity of such personality is inesti- mable, we extend our heartfelt sympa. thy to,his amily, to whom our Heaven ly Father has seen fit to send this bereavement.
 Resolved. That these resolutions be placed on the minutes of the vestry, published in the local paper and a copy sent to the bereaved family.
 D. G. Beers, Clerk.

The pupils of the Zoar school had a diversion from the regular TO tine on the afternoon of 'Election day. Printed ballots had been prepared and each pupil was supplied with a Republican and a Democratic ticket. At 3.45 the teacher, Miss Lillis. with some pleas ant remarks, announced that the polls were open. Each pupil took the two tickets together with an envelope from the teachers desk, passed separ- ately into the cloak room, enclosed the desired ticket in the envelope, re-en- tered the room and deposited the enve- Iope in ballot-box on the desk. The pupils appeared to feel the importance of the act and performed it with dig nty that would do credit to older per sons. The vote when counted showed IA republican and three democratic votes.

MEMS CLUB.
RESOLUTIONS ON THE DEATH OF PROF CHARLES s. PLATT.

Whereas, It hath pleased Almighty God in His wise providence to call tc the rest of Paradise our friend and fel- low co-worker, Prof Charles s. Platt, one of the founders. and since its in- ception, one of the most efficient work CTS of the Mems Club, therefore be it
 Resoved, That while we bow in hum- ble submission to the will of God, we desire to express the sorrow that has come to the Club by his death, and our appreciation of his pure and noble char acter, illustrating as it did, the beauty and the power of the Christian life. His unfailing kindness and unsetish- ness and consideration for all who came in contact with him, whatever thelr station in life 'endeared him to all who knew him.
 Resolved, That in his death, the Mems Club has met with, an almost ir- reparable loss. Wise in counsel, consid- crate in thought and action, high minded, noble hearted, touching life at many points, he has left upon the Club, the impress of his personal char acter and the charm of that singularly courteous and gracious manner which made his presnece so welcome in every circle in which he moved.
 Resolved, That in taking his part in the literary work of the Club, although most at home in talking or writing of music, which he loved as his life, what ever was the theme of the evening, whether chosen by himself or hy the Club, his papers were always instruc- tive, clearly expressed, and of high literary merit.
 Resolved, That we place on record this expresson of our heartfelt sorrow for the loss we have sustained as body, and also for the personal be- reavement it is to each individual member of the same, for his strong, loving, generous sympathetic character endeared him to us all. Resolved, That copy of these res olutions be forwarded to his sorrowing wife and bereaved family and that the same be printed in The Newtown Bee. The foregoing resolutions were passed at meeting of the Mems Club held at the Newtown Inn on the even- ing of November 10th, 1908.

mining Good from Bad Explained.

White Lead is the standard paint
material all over the world II Is made
by corroding metallic lead into n white
powder, through exposing 1t to the
fumes OF weak acetic acid and carbonlC
acid gas; this powder is then ground
and mixed with linseed oil, making a
thick paste, In which form II is packed
and sold for painting purposes. Tho
painter thins 1t down TO the proper
consistency for application by the ad-
dition of more linseed oil.
The above refers, of course, to pure,
genuine White Lead only. Adultcrated
and fake white Lead" OF which there
are many brands on the market, is
generally some sort OF composition
containing only percentage Of white
lead: sometimes no White Lead at all;
in such stuff, barytes or ground rock,
chalk, and similar cheap substances
are used to make bulk and initiate the
appearance of pure White Lead
There is, however, n positive test by
which the purity or impurity Of White
Lead may be proved or exposed, be-
fore painting with It.
The blow.pipe flame will reduce
pure white lead to metallic lead. II

and II only partially reduces to lead,
leaving residue, 1t Is proof that
something else was there besides

Dear Sir:
1t is with pleasure that reply to
your request. Some years ago l took
up homestead for myself and also
one for my son. The half section
which we own is situated between
Rouleau and Drinkwater, adjoining
the Moose Jaw creek, is low level
and heavy land. We put in 20 acres of
wheat in stubble, which went 20 bush.
els to the acre, and 80 acres of sum-
mer fallow, which went 25 bushels to
the acre. All the wheat we harvested
this year is No / hard. That means
the best wheat that can be raised on
the earth. Wedidnot sell any wheat yet
as we intend to keep one part FOR
our own seed, and sell the other part
to people who want first-class seed,
for there is no doubt IL you sow good
wheat you will harvest good wheat.
We also threshed 5000 bushels of
frst-class oats out of 100 acres. so
acres has been fall blowing which
yielded 80 bushels per acre, and so
acres stubble, which went 80 bushels
to the acre. These oats are
the best kind that can be
raised. We have shipped three car
loads of them, and got SO cents per
bushel clear. All our grain was cut
In the last week of the month of
August before any frost could touch
It,
Notwithstanding the fact that we
have had late spring, and that the
weather conditions this year were
very adverse and unfavorable, We will
make more money out of our crop
this year than last.
For myself / feel compelled to say
that Western Canada crops cannot be
checked, even by unusual conditions.

Yours truly,
