GOODBYE FORE VER. to bottle-filling messinesdl rWITf THÉ WORLD'S ONLY CARTRIOE.FILL[b FOUNTAIN PEN Watermian's Warden and Mrs. Allan Beer of Bethany were honoured in traditional fashion at the Warden's Banquet at Cobourg Pavilion, Wednesday, Nov. 23rd, when she was presented with a beautîful bouquet of roses and he received a gold watch. Warden Beer announced that he would retire from municipal politics when his term of office was completed. One of the outstanding features of the Warden's Banquet was the entertain- ment provided by both amateur and pro fessional performers. In this group of accomplished entertainers, Dorothy Merrili of Oshawa is at left, singer Norma Davis is in the centre and dancer Dorothy Stedman is at right. The men are members of the Silverton Trio Wvho went through the zaniest antics for well over a haif hour, much to the enjoyment of the 160 diners. The large chap at left is the singer of the trio with a magnificent voice that left his audience spellbound. These three charming girls entertained with several vocal selections during the evening. They are Kathryn, Shirley and Beverley, daughters of Warden and Mrs. Sherman Moore of Ops Township, Victoria County. Mr. DeCarlo of Campbellford was an additional entertainer. Reeve Roy W. Nichols, Courtice, acted as Master of Cere- monies. LOADS tf A GUN.. CLEAN AN& QOICKI SUPPLYI.

"The person who lives bis life on the basis of adjusting haà no sense of God and littke sense of moral values in his lite", Mr. Morgan declared. 1 Mr. Roenigk made the point that a man can adjust to things which are right 4s well as 10 those which are wrong. "lIs il always wrong to adapt and con- form with the majority?", he asked. Mr. Morgan stated that the adjustment lîseif is not theý important thing, but the reason for which the individual ad- justs. "When a man adjusts 10 the world with the ultimate objective of Christian love, his actions are right. Howqver, when he adjusts for greedy, or selfish reasons, he is actually a type of crook", he declared. Mr. Strike pointed out that with the present emphasis on doing things as a group or Imass, it takes a strong indivi'- dual ta avoid being an "ad-1 juster".

Minutes'of E -Show Interes It is impossible to read through the minutes of the Durham Club without having a feeling of sadness. One real- izes that time marches on and that men come and go and by their works both great and smali we shall know them. Many who came froin Durham lived long and useful lives and their achievements were any- thîng but small. Recorded in the minutes of many meetings are tributes bo some of tbem. Oi January 31, 1935 is recorded: "During the evenîng Mr. Clemes called on Mr. J. ]p. Keachie to read an obîtuary prepared in memory of Dr. James L. Hughes- and Mr. Robert W. King both of whom were old members of the club. Dr. Hughes was the club's first president and held this office for 35 years. The club stood in silence during the reading of this tribule... The secretary was instructed to record in the minutes the pass- ing of these lwo gentlemen and the deep regrets of the members of the club at their death." The obituary in part read: "On Jan. 3rd, 1935 death dlaim- ed ils past president, Dr. James Laughlin Hughes, a man of dominant will power and ener- gy, a great educationalîst, a leader and the moving spirit of Ibis club for many years as its president-until the fraîity of body and mind lhrough age obliged bim la give up active work. On Jan. 17, 1935, our greatly loved friend Robert William King lefI us . . . We shall long remember the great interest he took in the welfare of this club . . .

On Jan. 28, 1937 another tri- bute read: "There were about 200 gathered ta do honor ta one of our own members May- or W. D. Robbins. (of Toronto) our Mayor is a native of Dar- linglon Township (spent bis boyhood days in Enniskillen) came ta Toronto in young- lite and worked bimself up to the highest position in the gift of the city of his choice." On Jan. 27, 1938, a year la- ter: "Dr. Treblecock also paid tribute t0 Sir Thomas Stanton, a Durham boy, whose death oc- Thomas' early manhood he was aclose friend of aur president the lwo attending the same model school. (Dr. L. B. Wil- liamns was the president at Ibis time.) I am pleased ta make Ibis reference in the minutes of our club about these two men who have made such a great success of their lives. And may the old county neyer be scarce of this class of men. There are many we couid namc who have passed on but very pleased to know there are ath- ers coming along and filling in the ranks and we have them with us here this evening."
