Always interested in the welfare of those with whom he lived, he had served as a Trus- tee of the village for several terms, as a charter mem- ber and president of the Medina Rotary Club, and was one of the guiding lights of the Medina Com- munity Y. M. C. A. in which he was instrumental in the creation and establishment of Camp Nundawaga on Lake Ontario near Barker. A successful business man and a deacon of the FirBt Presbyterian Church, he Berved on many committees to aid others and could ever be relied upon to contribute his services towards a worthy cause, To us who knew him best he exem- plified in every respect the motto of the Rotary Club, of which he was a loyal member throughout his life— \Service Above Self.\ His sudden death is one of personal sorrow to all who knew him in this community, and his loss greater than we can expresH by any tribute to honor his memory. o FARM \SIT-DOWNS\ If the new fad of sit-down strikes ever hit the farm it'H going to bring everyone around Medina a lot of good laughs. Just think of a farmer, as he goes to feed the hogs, for instance. He would sit down on the pig. Then the housewife, when half through with her churning, would stage a sit-down strike until the price of butter advanced. Not another lick would she churn, but just sit there, dasher in hand, unconcerned as to whether the butter came or not. The farm hand, too, going out to milk would ait up- on his milking stool and when about half done would cease his labor, take a chew of tobacco, stretch out his legs in comfort and remain there until his wages were raised. Night would come and the farm hand would lay his munly head over against old Rossy's side and full off to sleH'p until the dawning of another day, but without another drop of milk being forced down into thenail. Yes, therein going to he a lot of fun when the sit- down strike fad hits the farm, and yet it might prove a good thing. It would shut off the food supply of the city sit-down strikers*, and without the fanner's meal, milk, butter. PgBfs and vegetables a tjit-downor would (lOiekly HUrrrnfUM-. Maybe a general sitting-down on tne farm wnuld stop all that sort of Hilly—and costly — nonsense in the city whi'ii nothing else could. OIK RKSPONSIHIUTY Most r\iT\nn«' iii Medina is bound by heartstring ties to children and realizes what anguish always fol- • lows injury tn anybody's child. A normal person would not deliberately kill or hurt a little child, yet statistics show that many are killed or hurt by careless and reckless drivers who probably are in every other re- spect what can be called normal. We suggest that every motorist, every time he steps in a car, think of a chlld-vhiw own or any child—then drive every mo- ment so as to protect all children. Keep before you as you drive the mental picture of some healthy, haupy youngster you know. Then dr\ve as though the saW youngster wcro at play in the street ahead of you, or riding in a car that you are about to pass. And don't forget—when you drive to protect a child you are also driving to protect everyone. You seldom ever hear of an auto accident heinpj caused by too much precaution on the part of the drivers, TlltiN AND NOW One of the most anuuing things to the average citi- zen is the seemingly short space of time that has elapsed since it was next to impossible to buy fresh vegetables in a Medina grocery dXlving the winter months. Thirty years ago about the only thing in this line a grocer could offer hi? customers were carrots, onions, potatoes and turnips. Now it is possible to get vegetables of every variety right in the dead of win- ter, if the grover chooses to carry them. Today grocery display of vegetables in every section of the V. S. is* just as attractive in December or Janu- ary as it is in June or duly. Bonus, peas, tomatoes, lettuce and radishes alternate in colorful rows 'beets, carrots, parsnips and celery. Improved trans- lortation, modern methods of retrigeration and hot muse growing of garden truck have brought about this change. 1'rices are. of course, lower when these vegetables are in the season locally and when gardens are pro- ducing. But even now prices for these same things in \winter months are becoming lower each year as grow- ers and shippers learn more and more about packing them and keeping them fresh for long periods. Fresh -vegetables the year round is something to be thankful for. It means better eating and better health in the homo, and that certainly is in itself sufficient to cause evory citiaen to rejoice that he is living in an tera of yettwduhd vegetables. *Ukmk6 about A Tn Mf*st Tmittr Santa Monica, CahX—•If, M. and who* the President put* oyer his scheme for reconstructing the Su- preme court nearer to his beans desire, th e question arises—in fact, hat already arisen—as to where he's folnj to find members who -will keep step with the New Deal's march of triumph. Might tfaU earnest well-wisher make * suajgeitton? Let the Presi- dent look Holly- wood over before making hi s selec- tions, for this is yes - man's land. Some of the stu- dios out hero are BO crowded with yes-men that big ves-nicn have t o tote little yes-men In their arms. There's only one or two drawbacks SaffltfaTtJ '\\\»•*>» be hard to wean the local appoint- ees from wearing polo shirts along with those long silken robes. And they'll Insist In a preview for each decision. • • « Domestic Pets A Brooklyn Judge has decided that for a couple to keep eighty- two various animal pets in one apartment Is too many—maybe not for th e couple, but for' the neighbors—yes! Thut reminds me that once, in a hotel in the Middle West—not such u large hotel either—I found fully that muny pets in my bed. They weren't aasorted enough; they ull belonged to one BtundarB vurlcty. 1 shall not name the hotel, but II was the worst hotel in the world, us of that year. If bad ho- tels BO where bad folks do. It is now- the wornt hotel in Hudes. Bui the point I'm getting at Is thut, though eighty-two unimals may muke u surplus in a ^ity flat, they couldn't possibly upset a home so much an one overstuffed husband who's puny and has had to go on a Billet diet such as would be suitable for o canary—if the Ciiiuiiy wasn't very hungry. • • • Literary Legerdemain Cultural circles along sunklssed coast of California ure htill all ex - ciU'd over the achievement of a lot-ill literary figure who, lifter yc-iiu of concentrated efforts has turned oul a 50,000-word novel without once using n word con- taining the letter \E\, U the fash- ion spreads to the point where the cupllal \1\ nlso should he stricken out, It's going to leave ajot bf ac- ton und stulehincn practically mule Hut thnt'» not what 1 ntai tod out to h»y when 1 begun this squib.
