.Wcdneslay, December 29, 1937 THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE i VICTORIA CORNERS IfOU sure? Nothing gives so much for the little it costs as the telephone, and it keeps on giving all the time. It keeps you in touch with markets and buyers; it ends isolation; it is an" ever-present sentinel in times of illness or danger. Many a valuable animal has been saved by a timely call to the vet. Many a pleasant social evening is arranged the same way. The value of telephone service grows as you continually find new uses for it. Nothing yields so much For what it costs as the TELEPH ONE CENTRELINE We wish one and all a very Happy and Prosperous New Year. Kev. S. Elliott gave a splendid Christmas message a week ago and this Sunday a New Year message. Next Sunday his text will be "Who Did Hinder You?" The sei-vice at Mount Zion will commence at 1.30 o'clock p.m. Commencmg at the New Year each appointment on the Maxwell circuit will miss one service every four weeks, allowing our minister to preach three times on Sunday instead of four during the winter months. It is very difficult to drive so far in fuclvi^hort time. The Mount Zion service^tell not be held January 9th. Victor OBJbwcne has returned homo from Mr. WesW||j Plantt's, near Rock Mills, where he has spent the past six months. Mr. Edwin Little visited recently with friends at Clarksburg. We are glad to know that Mr. Neil Mclntyrc, who returned home from Owen Sound hospital recently, is re- covering nicely at the home of his niece, Mrs. Harry Fisher.

Bannon was held on Wednesday af- ternoon, December 23rd, 1937, at two o'clock at her late residence. The service was conducted by Rev. G. R. Sei-vice of Flcsherton, his text being "Where your treasure is, there aUso will your heart be." Mr. Service drew lessons from the hfe of Mrs. Bannon, exemplifying this text. Her troa.surcs had been her home and family, and the beautiful and spirit- ual things of life. Interment was made in the family plot in Flesherton Cemetery, the pall-bearers being Wes. Dover, George Ludlow, Chas. Moore, Earnest Stinson, James and Ward Harrison. The flowerbearers were grandsons: Jack, Frcil, George and Delbert Bannon.

Armstrong, Toronto; Mr. and Mrs. H. Highland; Mr. Al- fred, Mr. and Mrs. Ward Harrison and Mr. Jas. Harrison, the Dover Bros, and Mrs. Wes. Dover. The pupils of S. S.

At this concert George Duncan auctioned the beautiful autograph quilt, the property of the committee looking after Tnistiogo Cemetery. Mrs. Louie Bannon and family of Dundalk arc visiting at Milton Ban- non's as is also Mr. John Robinson of Hamilton. Mr. Wm. Acheson held an auction sale on Friday. Mr. and Mrs. Ache- son, we understand, intend to move to Ventry to live with their daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Earl Walton. The neighbors and partic- ularly the members of Inistioge Church are very sorry to see the Achosons move away. Commencing next week Flesherton stores will close each Wednesday night during the winter months.

Flesherton senior hockey team will swing into action for the first tin-o when they play in Shelburne this Wednesday eveninfr, in the first game of the Centre Grey* League schedule l^st year's championship team will be almost intact, the only absen- tee being Bill Patton. Flesherton's second game will he played on Tues- day evening of next week when Mark- dale will play in local arena for the opening game here. For some un- known reason Flesherton has the most of their games in the early part of the schedule. Maybe there was de- sign in that action, as it is known that Flesherton does not start the season at a fast rate, but do finish well. Let's all be on hand Tuesday evening next to give the champions a big hand and encourage them to bring another championship to Flo.«;herton. Small Ads. SKATES FOR SALEâ€" Good pair of ladies' skates.
