' oe a number of his friends, f give them free admission to ~ the concert which he had provid- ed. The public evidently took kindly to the program, for the .- hall was filled, and it "was very _ evident from the frequent and "hearty applause that: the people "were getting the kind of pro- gram they enjoyed. Of course Duncan Cowan, the] comadian, was a favorite, and if . some people could have had their way they would have kept him , on the "job till the "wee sma' hours,' By the way, Duncan was for- Junate to have had as good an accompanist as Miss Gibson, of Sonya. It is no easy matter to pick up this class of music and play it without previous practice --a rare piece of work. Miss Gibson's opening number was a brilliantly executed piano solo; which received a hearty encore. Ross Roach gave pleasure, as he always does, with his. cornet solo. Pleasing solos were sung by Miss Vera Miller, Mrs H Em- 'mérson, Miss K Ross, and Miss Viola Richardson of Whitby. Mr. Edward Evans, Whitby 'Pandmaster, was well received "am Yiig two cornet solos. ~ Joseph Goldring used to play '_ghe cothet with rare ability, and ~"Sdoubtless he does so yet; but he F=ig proving his versatility: in AREEY rendering some splen- violin selections. * It is some " fima'siticé we 'have heard such brifliantly executed violin music _ in Port Perry. Miss Hall, of Oshawa, gave sanumber of popular readings, and was heartily applauded and encored. Mr. W. H. Harris was in his wight element as chairman, and performed his duties admirably.

The AURA LEE Ts Good-Bye Weeds Fe It.is pleasing to note that the weeds are rapidly disappearing from our streets. The united efforts of the householders and Bob Bartley gave our streets a fine clean appearance. Many notable patches of weeds have disappeared during the past week or two. Of course there are a few patches to cut yet, but | the good example set will help to remove them, too. Good Fish Mark Twain was once asked if he considered fish good brain food, and he told his questioner that he thought a small whale would do him no harm. The editor of this paper grate- fully acknowledges the receipt of a fine bit of maskinhonge-- most delicious eating--from our} friend Mr. H. J. White, who has been holidaying at Caesarea. It| was a noble fish but its scales' were gone so we could not weigh it. - { Picnic Party The staff of F.
