 Dear Corner Writers: It has been much easier to put of writing t-lan to do 1t, but I must make tardy acknowledg ment of the yellow slip received some time ago, which was thoroughly appre- ciated We shall greatly miss Tidy Addly. Only two weeks before her sudden death called to see her and how I shall cher Ish the memory Of that little visit. It seemed such pleasure to her to see someone from her former home and with what pride she showed me around her pretty new llome, and anxious for me to see the lovely view. from her windows of the Thames river with it's numerous craft, coming and going, and the city across the river. When I took ny leave her kindly smile and farewell sadly 1 proved to be the last. Our sorrow and sympathy Is extended to those that re- main.

 was well spent in seeing things Of inter-
 est. There were small cottages fitted up
 as model homes with every convenience.
 There were demonstrations of many
 practical things. as making dress forms, hat trimmings, making maple products as they do in Vermont, making and packing candy entirely by machinery, There were all sorts of labor-saving ma chinery for the housewife for outside
 or for mechanical, purposes. The, won- derful cattle and animals, the very finest
 that can be produced, were a constant Source of pleasure to look at. I think that which seemed to be about the greatest achievement was sthe education the boys and girls were getting in this progressive age, by the samples of their handicraft. It seemed simply wonderful to see the fine needlework, dresses, made
 and trimmed hats, cooking and the enor-
 nous stock and variety of canned pro
 ducts that were done by young girls. Tie
 boys in their line of-woYk were not be-
 hind with the chIseling in marble Or de- signing miniature horses or watercraft
 or raising baby beef, fancy chickens or
 scoges of other practical acconSAlish-
 ments along other lines.
