ROBINSON Real Estate Dealer and Auctioneer Phone 78r23, Colborne VERNONVILLE November 29th, 1927 "The Colborne Express" has been a welcome visitor in our house for era! decades, and is usually pretty thoroughly. Many times in these later years on receiving our copy I see a whole column, yes, often nearly two columns called Vernonville News. Being a lover of the quaint little village, settled down by the "Grampian Hills" in all their woodland beauty, I quite naturally say-- Well! What has happened at Vernonville? Then immediately proceed to read the correspondence which at times lias interested, amused or bored, and find it is nothing serious or very funny, only another outburst from the voluminous vocabulary and prolific pen of the correspondent. In a recent issue there appeared very minute and detailed account of Mr. P. Rixon's auto accident. However, this person whom the writer has often taken for a topic--as it would seem target, paid for his car when he purchased it. so it happened t his own property when damaged. The said writer has had several rather expensive smashes which prerhaps his inherent modesty refrained him from publishing under Vernonville ie many friends is, why didn't author, y i other literarv he might have 't heard of his 3 a high st heard dvaned poultry raising or any other line of agriculture being perfected unless it were keeping the lawns in a superb state of beauty, training the Cli mates, the favored flower that bears the name of "Maiden's Bower.' Now I would say to the correspondent; Take an old friend's advice-- get busy on this journalism an your God-given talents. Why yet, you might exceed the late Peter MncArthur, who gave to the world very interesting compositions homelv subjects such as "His Breachy Cow," "His Old Sow," "Tapping the Sugar Bush," or "Naming the Dog Bildad." etc. These letters with evens others as readers know an published in a book called "Friendly Acres." Vernonville has produced sc tirguished doctors, Inspectors, and teachers, and the citizens would indeed be glad to have one of their number classed among the authors handed down to the future generations of readers. "On-Looke: FACTS ABOUT EYES By Dr. Ralph B.

These lenses correct all annoyances from these causes. There is no reason why, if you are bothered, will be glad to explaii further to you at any time. (To be continued) PRODUCTION OF AUTOS For the ten months ending October 31st, 1927, production totalled 169.374 automobiles, having a sales value for plants $110,762,754. These totals marked a reduction of 10 per cei numbers 3 per cent in value from the figures for the corresponding 3 when 187,536 cars valued at $114. 116 were produced in Canada, duction this year to date included ?5,844 open passenger cars, 95,280 closed passenger cars, 21,444 trucks, 16,796 chassis and 20 taxicabs or With the world's nicest scenery and the nicest girls in the universe Canada is infinitely happy.--Kingsti Standard. VERNONVILLE miversary November 29th, 1927 rvices are being held at Eddystone on Sunda ^th. Rev. J. N. Norton of Cobour; be the preacher for the day and ser-1 vice will be held at 11 and 7.30. Assistance is being given our Eddy-stone friends In the praise part of the services by members of St. Andrew's choir -here. We understand Miss Lena Locke is about to sever hef connection with Mr. C. B. Turk, our local store-keeper. Miss Locke has been the efficient and faithful clerk in Mr. Turk's store ever since he started business. It is' her intention we hear to remain at her h.ome in Eddystone for a time, before assuming more important responsibilities. Her place here is being taken by Miss Marjorie Mcintosh. Coutnry store business has greatly improved during the past ten or fifteen years and that is largely on account of bet-trast old conditions and old mehods tract old conditions and old methods with those prevailing at present, but space does not permit. Farmers to the south of us who are shipping milk to Toronto were glad to learn a day or two ago that a truck service for transportation of this important dairy product, is being put on. This new service will be started December 1st and will be available for all those living on No. 2 highway, and it is expected will call at adjacent farms. There is one thing certain, no truck from the city will attempt to give farmers on the road south of Vernonville any service. This road is in such deplorable condition that ft is about as much as a truck is worth to make a trip over it. Travellers tell its that in travelling over the Province they find nothing quite as bad. It's a shame and a disgrace to any municipality. The executive committee of the Young People's Asssociation is meeting to morrow night (Wednesday) in the Sunday School room at the church tc complete arrangements for the winter months programme. Assignments of subjects will be made to the members and committees Appointed to look after the various activities of the Association. It looks as if the members are in to carry on activities of unusual proportions this winter. Several are preparing to take examinations in specialization courses under the Ontario Education Council, and others are desirous of taking standard or special courses at the Winter School to be held in Cobourg early in January. The League at Castleton has invited the Association over there and they are asked to furnish the entire progromme for the evening. Then we understand an invitation has been received from the Port Hope Society to come up and visit them. The membership are looking forward to a series of interesting and profitable meetings during the winter months, and these special features will give them an added zest. On Friday night of this week the first regular bimonthly meeting will be held at ; o'clock. The subject will be "Canada's Christian Quest." It is hoped that every member will be present rally service. On a recent Sunday a number of the officials and teachers of the V ronville Sunday School went out Tait's School house north of here 1 the purpose of organizing a new Sunday School for to serve the needs of the young people of that neighbourhood. A survey of the several families in the neighbourhood had disclosed the fact that nearly thirty children were without any means of public leligious instruction. The school board were approached and permission asked to use the school house for a meeting place. This they quite readily consented to. Under most favorable, auspices a new school-of some thirty pupils was formed with a full staff of officials and teachers. Teachers from this school here assisted them for" a Sunday or two in getting the work under way. The superintendent of the new school is Mr. George Lehman, the secretary Miss F. Ludolph, the treasurer Mr, John Goldsmith, and the missionarv treasurer Miss Margaret Smith. Last Sunday the Vernonville congregation had the opportunity and privilege of hearing a missionary home on consulate orders, in the person of Rev. Dr. C. W. Service of Sz-Chwan, Western China. Dr. Service is the senior medical worker on this our largest field in China and is a member of the staff of West China University. He has been in this field for 25 years. His address on Sunday was a graphic account of present conditions in this much distressed land very informing in its first-hand knowledge of the serious situation there. Miss L. Howard of Eddystone and Mr. Arnold S. Robson sang in duet "The Rugged Cross," and Miss-Howard sang moost acceptably an appropriate selection entitled "Alone." SHILOH j November 29th, 1927 \ . W. S.
