      _____________


      This week witnessed the passing of F. Henry Illing, one of Kitchener's highly esteemed business men who in his lifetime found numerous opportunities to gladden weary hearts. The late Mr. Iiling was well known in recent years for his philanthropy, always extended in a modest, quiet way, and his sudden death in Atlantic City on Monday morning was a shock to his wide circle of friends. In recent years he had gone to considerable expense to outfit himself as Santa Claus. He performed the function of the Good Saint principally at the K-W hospital and St. Andrew's Presbyterian church. For many years he was an officer and patron of the Kitchener Musical Society. Deepest sympathy is extended to his bereaved widow, and his aged mother and his son.
