Notices of the meeting have been sent out by the Secro- tary. J. H. Ormiston, to ministers of all churches, representatives of the V.O.N., Women's Institute, Town Council Relief Committee and other local organizations. The need for Christmas Cheer and Welfare Work this winter will be greater than for some years past, owing to so many heads of families being out of work. Last Christmas 38 babkets were sent out to families in need. The fund is accordingly being cpened earlier this year and tho commit- tee hopes that there will be a gen- ¢rous response, Under the direction of Arthur W. Lynde, a men's minstrel show will be staged on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings of next week. Every cent of tho proceeds will go to the Christmas Cheer Fund. It is hoped to realize a good sum from this show. The following week it is expect- ed Whitby Citizens' Band will give thelr second annual concert for the Fund. The band will be assisted by the best of local talent, Last year over $60 was taken up in a collection at this concert. This year, as last, places where citizens can leave their contribu- tions will be designated. COUNTY.

UNITER CHURCH ATNEWTONVHLE BURNED TO GROUND (Continued from page 3) -- the congregatien ventured inside the building to save what they could but apart from a few of the seats nothing was saved. Sunday morning saw just the bare walls standing where once had been the church while a mass of ruins marked the place where the church shed and Sunday School had been, Spkaking to the Rev, Mr. Wal. lace, pastor of the church, Sunday night a reporter was told that the damage is estimated at $20,000 He was practically sure, he stated, that the fire started in the hay- mow, Asked If tramps had been in the habit of sleeping in the shed Mr. Walalce stated that they had been doing so practically every night of late. "He could not however say whether there had been anyone in there at the time of the fire. His suspicions led him to believe he said that there was some one there and that the fire might have been started hy a carelessly dropped match, The church 1s seventy years old and was redec- | orated and completely renovated at a cost of $1500 just four years ago. Onjy $3500 {insurance was carried on the bulldings. Services for Sunday were abandoned but the other two churches on the cir- cuit, Kendall and Shiloh held their services as usual. Great sym- pathy has been expressed for the congregation in messages by phone and wire to the pastor on Sunday. The Presbyterian Church of which the Rev. W, J. Todd of Bowman- vill {s minister has generozsly of- fered the use of their church for any services the congregation has nntil a new building has been erected. In the short time since the fire it has been impossible to make any plans for the future but it is likely that an appeal wil] be made to help the unfortunate con- gregation in the loss of their fine church. It would take at least $20,000 to replace the buildings burned down a reporter was toid by the pastor, It has been very noticeable that when the Bowmanville Fire De- partment has one call it generally is followed by two more in a short time. This was so on this oceca- sion, Last week-end the brigade was called to a fire at Courtice. Saturday a small fire on Queen street necessitated the services of the brigade and Saturday even- ing's tire at Newtonville made the usual three in a row, NEVER SATISFIED Some people's curiosity reminds one of the little boy who opened his drum to find where the noise came from, Oddments and Short Lengths On Sale Tuesday and Wednesday Ladies' Cashmere Socklets, pair . . .19¢ Yard ....

The United Counties appointed a number of valuators fun the early part of the year and both Durham and Northumberland were revaluated, The result of the re- valuation left most of the larger municipalities with their assess ment practically doubled. Bowman ville was among those whose 8s- sessment increased the most and the town council immediately de- cided that along with other munlei- palities an appeal would be lodged with the county judge The presiding judge has stated that affidavits filed by officers making returns could not bear strict examination in the light of the assessment act of Ontario. Judge O'Connor is considering the facts that municipalities in the counties are not assessing for in- come, and that in some instances assessment for business tax is very low. while in others it is the op- posite, His Honor has commented that in the valuators' report business and income assessments have been totalled separately, He holds that business and income must be add- ed to the real estate assessment, Judge O'Connor further states the suggestion has been made that this phase of the inquiry be drop- ped. "I want to state that it will not be dropped. We will deal with mat- ters in this hearing as we find thew, and be governed by law," states His Honor, All assessment rolls for 1928 and 29 will be placed in the hands of the court In spite of the fact that a revalu- ation is required every five years, this has not been done since 1904, it is claimed. vecmemm----r------ Appeal From Pulpits In accordance with the request of the Community Welfare Com- mirtee, ministers of local churches made an appeal from the pulpits yesterday for ald for the Commit. tee in thelr work among the needy during the winter, By this means it #s hoped to get a more hearty response this year when the need fs more apparent than in other years. tlantic passengers as "Jock" selected to command the new 42, to Ca with the rank of 4th officer.
