The good taste of the ladies of Oxdrift, added to the willing effort of the men, produced a scene in t pretty hall that furnished the best of settings for an entertainment of the | kind, And the fine touch was given by the lovely bunch of flowers on the centre table. Sarely a tender hand put it there! And somehow, the combined genius of Sid Bartlett and M. F Cook had contrived to bring out the whole scene in the most brilliant fashion by pro- ducing an electric glow that rivalled the brilliance of the sunlight, Not a wire in sight, not a power plant within miles. Surely here was magic indeed! : When the chairman, Dougald Ken 'nedy, M.P. opened the programme, and D. Lane wth this Cello, Miss Marguerite Morris and Miss Aldra Smith with their Violins, and Mrs J. E. Gibson at the Piano struck the first sweet notes of the prelude, a little touch of something like ecstasy thrill- ed the listeners. The soft blending of fine tones from the Violins with the deeper notes of the Cello and Piano underneath, was something a little finer than many of us are much accustomed to hear. And what a pretty picture they made! No wonder the audience recalled them to the for 8.00; 9.00; 10.00 & 12.00 dollars, that are being display- ed at $3.95.

Camphell next spoke for a minute or two, and suggested endless purposes which the Hall could serve. The advantage of the location in the centre of the town made it specailly attractive to visitors, because of its convenience. As a community hall, it would be helpful to every phase of endeavour and to all sections of the people--for enjoyment, business meet- ings and church. He had heard so many comments on the inconvenience of reaching the school in Oxdrift that he felt certain the present location would attract much of value to Oxdrift. One more tus a and the end of the program was in sight, Mr M. F. Offer changed the atmosphere of the concert in a moment by his rendering of a funny song telling how "Father laid the carpet on the stair," followed} by a clever imitation of a choir sing- ing an anthem. Being recalled, he was accompanied to the platform by Miss Hoyland, Miss Morris and Rev. J. M. Beaton, and these four joined in a quartette «Sweet and Low," which was a rev- elation in part singing, throughly en- that the Ford gives roads.

It was intended that the performers should come on without being announced, This did not lessen the interest when Miss Hoyland, of Toronto, (a guest of rs S. N. Dixon) came forward and sang "the Long Road." This lady needed no interpreting. Her singing won its own applause. Mayor Pitt, speaking for the town of Dryden, expressed th e pleasure it gave him and them to visit a neigh- bour community uncer such pleasing circumstances. His impression when he left Dryden was that the only peo- ple left to guard the town were the license inspector and the cop. He And the excuse was the best Nothing was so beneficial to progress between neighbours ac ooo will. And today's affair was one of 'he best examples of goodwill he "had ever seen. It-was his earnest 'hope that such a happy condition I would always continue. With a few gentle digs at people in general and tone or two chestnuts told in the re- { freshing Pitt way, he took his seat amid a gurgle of delighted laughter, Again an interval of expectation, possible. ended by the appearance of Miss Queenie Thomas with a song that melted the audience and touched them into silence: " "Though the heart be weary Sad the day, and long; Still to us at twilight Comes love's old song." And Miss Thomas never sang more effectively. There was something in the fine appreciation of the large aud- joyed by the audience -- and the concert was over. Mrs H Pateman thanked the various artistes for their contribution towards the evening's entertainment, which wag expected to produce about $300.00 to the hall fund. ® ok kk A Golden Memory. During the busy fall days, as the shortening nights hasten the approach of winter, there are many to whom the memory of the concert will remain to bring a little brightness into toil- some days. To such the players and singers gave their services with the | best of goodwill, lockng only to such success for reward. And indeed the | charm of the evening, in which no jarring note entered, will remain as a golden memory to all who whole- heartedly enjoyed it, Notice of Registration of By-Law NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that a By-law was passed by the Council of the Municipality of Machin on the 19th day of August 1922, providing for the issue of debentures to the amount of $5000.00, for the purpose of assisting ' the Red Cross Society in providing a Hospital in the Town of Dryden, and that such By-law was registered in, the Registry Office in the District of; Kenora on the 22nd day of August 1922 Any motion to quash or set, aside the same or any part thereof must be made within three months? | after the first publication of this i Notice, and cannot be made thereafter. i | could give. ience that produced the best a singer GEORGE RUETE, Clerk. |!
