That is, when the rhe- ostat is turned on too far to be taken care of by the tube, the set sends out from the antenna a whistling noise, similar to the whistle heard from a regular broadcasting atgtion. It is possible a radio set may be turned on too far without the oper- ator having any knowledge that-he is annoying his neighborss, more especially if the set of a one or two tube type. A simple way to test your set, is to tap your finger on the post where the aerial is attached to the set; the rheostat should be turned backward until the "click" disappears. nme (Ypres. PRESBYTERIAN ANNIVERSARY The 69th anniversary of St. John's Presbyterian Church' was celebrated last Sunday and Monday and was generally conceded to have been one of the most successful in its history. "The Sunday services were conduct- ed by Rev. A."C. Reeves, formerly of Moose Jaw, who preached two inspir- ing sermons. The choir added great- ly to the services by the exceptional music "rendered. both. morning ahd evening. On Monday evening the ladies of the Church served a splendid supper "to a large gathering which later filled the town hall to its full capacity. The concert was thoroughly enjoy- ed by the large audience. Miss Jessie Butt and Jimmie Read made their first appearance in Port Perry "and made a tremendous hit. . i Miss Butt has & splendid contralto "voice and her rendering of some of the old favorites--Scotch and. Irish songs, delighted the audience. Mr. Reid had a choice selection of humor- ous songs all new to Port Perry, and sang thém with a voice that pleased everyone with its range and quality. Particularly delightful were the duets of Miss Butt and Mr. Reid. Mrs. Westlick is well known to Port Perry audiences and added to "her reputation as a pianist. ~~ Mr. Ross Roach, with Miss Merle Rergwon as accompaniste, 'SACRIFICE We do not Intend\to oontinue the wall paper end of this business, therefore, we will sell what we have at COST and below in some lines.

GOOD PIECE OF WORK On Sunday evening, October 18th, there will be installed in the Church of the Ascension, a pulpit of, Gothic style which hds been built by Mr. E. Brookes.

It will be dedicated 'next Sunday morning. It is pleasing to know that such a creditable piece of work can be done locally, and Mr. . Brookes is to be Somplimented upon the production. ---- I -- FROM THE NATIONAL DAIRY : SHOW Indianapolis; Oct: 10, '1925 Editor of Port Perry Star: Dear Sir,--I was surprised when in Woodstock, on Monday, to see. them taking up the. street railway |- track and paving where it had been.
