BOWMANVILLE [Sorry, to road of the death of Miss Aidaik Wrig'lilt, Toronto, daughter of the late Stephen Wright, weE-known in. this town in furniture and piano and organ work. Winy mot get on with the highway between Lindsay, Oron0 and Newcas- tle and give the out-of-work people a chance, Why wait until the winter season ortho relief funds are at the bottom of the list. â- So Shiloh, Clarke Town-ship, got away with the drama con rest at Osh- awia. - Well those countryside hamlets are ’certainly putting it over the hig- gler .places. After ’all why should they not- ? We have asked that ques- tion before. The schools in Cartwright and Dar- lington and also Clarke, are very for- t'uinia.te in having music teachers of this ’ability of Mrs. Luoile Siwitzer and Mrs. Donald Robb. A great deal of the success of the festival this year was through the efforts of those pains- taking teachers to whom credit, is due, 'We understand the! violinists, who appeared at the concert on Friday evening were coached by a. teacher from ’Oslbaiwa, who it happens is do- ing good Work in this line in town The piano acctunp.• ni i mehts were play- ed by an organist from Osbawa and was -of great assistance to the youth- ful laspirants. We notice the girls’ baseball lea-, gun is being formed for the season along the Lakeshore front. Well we do enjoy a good game of baseball, but as for gills in baseball we may be old: fashioned enough to imagine it is not a sport suitable for young women. The general atmosphere surrounding baseball is somewhat of a bois tenons nature and we do not look for that in girlhood! splort. We may be wrong but we have our idea of this line of sport. We understand Port Hope band has a new conductor. What has be- come of the last director Mr. Fro ft k ? Port Hope does not keep up tp the old days when Wm .'Philp was con- ductor and1 such members as Burns, 'Sketch, Joie Tyler, Alec Vint, Dick 'Smith and others we .could- mention were members. Then the old town had a! band that was1 known far and wide, but. it. does not line-up on ai par with the county town on the east, the Oo- boiurg. Kilties. Pleased to notice old No. 9 is on the comedy business. .No, 9 was .always in. it, especially in the old school -ait Belwoods Corners, but of course somewhat different at that period as it wias the real thing, while now it is1 the copying of some persons ideas in this line. The! ac- tors and actresses of that period were perhaps of Ithe Hollywood culture but it was the real life just the same, and the scenery was just as nature paint- s’, FOR YEARS the name of Delanty has stood for courteous attention, high class workmanship and fair and reasonable treatment.

Anderson Smith Co., gave a kit,chon shower and another group of friends gave a very enjoyable miscell menus shower and card! party at the home cif Mr. and Mrs. Fred Graham.

A good collection of wa-rr second-hand clothing was also received: to be sent to headquarters for Western relief. ed it. May the younger -Xo. 9 go tin to gre'ater things in this line. Last week the weatherman, prom- ised us- fine weather for the week-end but it was; not of the picnic kind and not, many overcoats have been shied uip to- the present time. However, we can depend on it, that it will be O.K. for lihe 12th alt Oi'uno, for that will be the objective point by the majority of people in this district. Prépara- tions are being made by ; the citizens and may it be as memorable a day as when John Hilliard Cameron, the great Orange orator, was the speak- er on that occasion. How many in the district remember that 12th ? A vote was taken on Sunday last at, both morning and evening service as to whether it would be advisable to do away with, in the summer sea- son, the evening service, and the vote was in, favour of continuing the ser- vice. 'Simail'ler attendantes is the rule in the evening but it, would 'be bet- ter if those that go would fill up the seats nearer the speaker and not have such a space between as there always «tom's to be'a feeling to get, near the exits, and why we cannot explain. This vote was taken by the congrega- tion' of iSJ, Paul’s United Church. Rev. F. Bannister, minister. A. start has been made on the rest room to be situated in the basement of the reading room library of the town hall building. It has been to us rather strange that some one of the fraternal societies' did molt buy the congregational cbuToh property which would have made a fine ball for Ma- sonic, OddlDelO'WS or Sons. of Euig- iiuvl. or such, as it: is it has been a costly affair to the town and the dtemises are, well, see it for your- self. At one time we bad1 ten chur- ches in town, that is counting the 'Salvation, Army, now we have only half and another decade or so this1 number willl be less. Mouth 'organ or harmonica, instru- ments must he quite a trade from the 'appearance of tho-se in the, variety •stores and each season there appears to be a different assortment on view but when it comes to a combination of those instruments to produce har- mony or a tirade of cords, we are in the clouds. Perhaps there are rules’ or treaties on the manipulation of those instruments, but we have not '•orne across anything of that nature. We can understand a soloist, with his., variation and divers and other gym- nastics, but no further. However, if it affords pleasure to any One we are glad to allow them to have it. Those who tookopart in the festival is what started this spasm.
