ORONO WEEKLY TIMES X Local News Mr. Gordoi: Teamen, received a very nadty sprain of bis right ankle while playing football on Saturday evening last. He is at present con- fined to his home, the ankle being so swollen that he cannot wear his shoe. Mr. and Mrs,. Conner George and two children, Stanley and Janette, of Royal Oak, Mich., who have been visiting Mr. and Mrs, Howard Wialah left on Monday for their .home. Mr. George is- connected with one of the 'broadcasting stations in- Detroit, Mr. Or-me ,Gam-shy has sold his building lot south of his palatial resi- dence recently to Mr. J, J. Gilfillan, who- will erect; a modern up-to-date residence. This, is considered the best building lot in town and we are pleased to see Mr. and Mlrs. Gilfillan will not leave our midst. In Wednesday evening’s Telegram we noticed that Win. Riddell won $45,000 on the Derby sweepstakes. We •thought what a lucky man Mr. Rid- del] was, but when we looked at the picture -we noticed it wais-n’t our Wil- liam who won the stake, but another by the Same name from Mo'unt Pleas- ant, who only yawned and seemed1 in- different over bis win. He can, prob- ably foot some of the people all the •time but lie can’t fool all the people -all the time. The band stand at the Agricultural grounds is looking for a new home. It was moved to the edge of the park, ndar the exit for the time being, but on information] received, we bear that it will most likely rest in the vacant tot just south of Mrs. Honeywell’s residence on, Main street. If this is true the only thing needed is to have the -Midland Regimental Band fill it very week. If this is not possible-, we would like to shggest to the band- that they hold their practises on. the stand instead of the armouries for the com- ing warm weather. â€",â€" ------oâ€"--------â€" Work has- been, started at, Port Perry on -the whitening of the street in the business section and the re- moval of poles from the main street, Excavations -are also being made to carry the telephone lines to the backs of tike lots in- the main business sec- SUNDAY SCHOOL ANNI- VERSARY SERVICES Rev. W. II. Stirling delivered an interesting sermon to a, large congre- gation in Park 'St. Church or: Sunday morning. His sermon was interesting to the children as well as the adults. He spoke on the religious educa- tion to children, saying that the in- fluence of the Sunday School is what brings men and women out to church today. The young people’s choir sang two lovely anthems “A Carol for Chil- dren” and “As You Go.” The or- chestra, under the capable leadership of Mr. A, I. Knox, assisted with the hymns and played a special number “Let’s Go.” Mr. John Taimblyn, treasurer for the Sunday -School, gave a report of the financial standing. They have tf>4.90 balance on hand, with all debts paid. DOG, THE INTELLIGENT ANIMAL â- Rev. Stirling a;t the Sunday: 'School Anniversary on Sunday last told a story of a -dbg that would go to the store and bring his master hack some cigarettes1. iMr. Ormé Gamslby brought an arti- cle into this office one day this week about a small dog that was owned by a young lady in this town, which reads as follows : “His name was Mickey, is 25 per cent. Bull Terrier, 25 per cent. Airedale and 50 per- cent. just. dog. He is -of a scrappy nature, and occasionally gets trim- med. When this happens he goes in •search of his friend- called Rex, a mas- sive bound with no hunting instinct bur. possessing a, wonderful appetite. They hunt up their adversary and, clean up on him. Mickey then takes the dog home, walk up the stairs1 to- gether, barks for admittance, and! af- ter being looked after, they both go away looking for new fields to con- quer. I LOCAL AND SOCIAL tions.
