IN MEMOR1AM BROWN â€" Tn loving memory of Mrs. Milfoil Brown (nee Ruby Miae Burley), who died at St. Michael's Hospital, Toronto, on January 20, 1935, in her 32nd year. We mourn for one we dearly loved, For one we coudl not save; Beloved- in life and mourned in death. Remembered in the grave. Her loving- voice we’ll never forget, Those years may pass away ; The loss of her we greatly feel As keen as that first day. When ail. is still and silent,V - A nd sleep f orsakes our eyes ; Our thoughts are in the silent grave Where our dear Ruby lies. â- â€™Tis. lonely here without you, And sad our lonely way ; Hot is the world to us the same iSin-ce you were called away. You ate not forgotten Ruby dear, For true love never dies; The dearest spot on earth to us Is where your body lies. - â€"-Fondly and1 always missed by Mother, Sisters and Brothers. Mr. ,1.

Raymond Hughes at Mr. S, Thomp- son’s, Our fast flying boys hockey team suffered defeat at the hands of the Welcome team 6 to 4. The hockey provided by our boys, while far from faultless, is interesting to watch and the improvement shown in each start speaks well for a good J-unior team m a few more years. The first regular meeting 0f the newly organized Home and School Club was 'held in the school on Tuesday evening, January 25th. The program, presided over by Mrs. Bowen, was presented by -the Home and iScbob-l Club Gouncrl. The meet- ing opened with 0 Canada, after which the Lord’s Prayer was re- peated. The Rickard orchestra, un- der the direction of Stanley Rickard, rendered some -delightful selections.

What is' it ?" lie ice down at; the marsh is 14 inches thick which would make it safe for skating or travelling or for stowing away for the summer months. On Monday, Feb. 7 th, a travelogue by Ken, Witden will be given in iS-t. Paul’s Church. This i-s going to bo .worth- going to -see and the ad-missiou. i-S only 2-5e. Pleased to note S. Rickards, school orchestra of Newcastle, is- still keep- ing to the “Front Line” "in their work throughout the district and nothing finer or better for young or old. Rev. IT. F. Banister, 0f St, Paul’s Church, occupied the Osha-wa Sinicoe United Church pulpit on Sunday morning last. The disagreeable wea- ther kept many home on account of suc-h bad walking and icy conditions of the streets. What a wonderful people we are, so far as music is concerned. “-Swing music” i-s- the lat-es-fc cult in fashion- able circles, and the “big apple” is also the latest freak of nature in the da-nee line, Other garden stuff will come along- in due time probably. Mrs. E. jR, Bouns'all was a visitor at Air, Chas, Bounsa'll’s at Milton last week, where he is employed at the large radio plant recently erected. Mrs. B-ounsall intends leaving for Tndiannap-olis this week for the bal- ance of the winter -season to be with her sister, Mrs. J. Noble. In many localities the residents are bothered with pedlers and trans- ients.: We have our share of each as for pedlers we can get what we need from dealers here who help to keep the town in the way of taxes and otherwise. So patronize your own people is our idea of what is just and fair. Three Sunday -Schools -in town have an orchestra in eachâ€"‘St. Paul’s the leader is- Mr. Max Tuerk; in (St, John’s, Anglican, Mrs. Gale is organ- izer and leader ; in Trinity United, Dr. Par-!ridge, organist of the church, conductor, all of which goes to show the interest taken in this line in our town. Air. George Wight, farmer of Pro-; valence section, passed away the past week. The funeral -took place on Wednesday last from the Morris Fun- eral Parlors to the cemetery. George will be missed among the oidtimers as a réciter of Scottish and other poetical literature of which he had a large stock. Mr. Wiggins, secretary of the Bandmaster’s Association, was in own Monday evening and. paid the Legion band a visit. Mr. Moore, band master of Toronto, was also present and conducted the band dur- ing the rehearsal. There wa,s -a large turnout of members, but during the holiday season on account- -pf sickness and doings of various kind's the at- tendance was not very good, -but from now on there will be, nevertheless, if musical organization or anything else wishes to make progress those who put- down their name should stay with the, job and be at their desk when practice night comes around. The Statesman says the first time in the history of -a, Bowm-anville church the entire giving t<> meet the expenses of the church came from voluntary giving without the aid of teas, suppers or rummage sales, and this for the year 1937 by the people of St. - John’s Anglican Church after everything was cleared up, leaving a balance on hand of $278.00. The dis- ciples church in this town never ask- ed a non-member for a cent towards e expenses of the church, all was Contributed by members only and that was continued u-p to the last.. In the early days of this- church, collection offerings were refused from strangers which was the means of keeping some from visiting and joining in the -ser- vices. It was certainly a free church in that respect- The past week in this and other bungs as well, the all absorbing topic has been the Niagara Flails ice block with some, with others the opening of parliament at Ottawa, with a great many the extra 50c. on the radio li- cense which is a-n imposition of the first water, with the sport class it is hockey, and for that we have to go to Whitby or Toronto to see a game. Oh pardon, we just had for the moment forgotten Orono, and with the musi- cal fraternity it was the Oshawa Musical Study Group Concert. This week it will the dance at the Bad- minton hall and various bridge club affairs. The sale of daily papers has fallen off since the price went up, while with one it may be “hang-the price, give us another herring,” with another “I must have my newspaper even if I have to go without a meal,” and the “tightwad” will do the bor- rowing act, all of which goes to show that whether it takes all sorts- of peo- ple to make a world, which we do not believe, still w-e have them just- the same.
