A number of friends and neighbors were entertained at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Armstrong on Fri- day night. The evening was spent in euchre and dancing, A good time enjoyed by all. Mr. Lorne Campbell is spending a few days in Lindsay. Mr. and Mrs. Francis Stokes were visitors to Lindsay on Saturday, also Mr. Jack Tamblin and Miss Robert- son. A large number attended the dia- mond jubilee services of the United Church at Little Britain. Good roads and fine weather favored them. The Sunday services were inspiring to the congregations that filled the church. The minister, Rev. J. C. McKee was in charge and Rev. J. U. Robins, of Bowmanville, was the special speaker. Rev. Mr. Robins was a former pastor of the church, and took for his text "What is that on thy hand?" and challenged his hearers to consecrate their gifts no matter how inadequate these might seem to the Divine Lord, where they would be multiplied many times. In the evening another masterly message was delivered, based on the words found in Ist Cor, 2-4. But the natural man reeeiveth not the things of the spirit of God, because they are spiritually discerned. The choir un- der the direction of Mrs. J. G. McKee, rendered several numbers which were greatly apperciated. Miss E. Dix assisted the choir in pleasing voice. Great plans had been made for a large gathering on Thursday, January 1st, when the celébration was brought to a fitting close. Hot fowl with all the good things that go with it were served and the catering was handled with such order and care that the programme was started shortly after eight o'clock. After singing a verse of The Church's one foundation, a brief prayed was offered by the minister who acted as chairman, Mrs. Hurd-Best, of Toronto, appeared in a group of numbers--English, Irish and Scotch. The chairman read extracts from messages of congratulations from Revs. R. A. Delve, Wesley El- liott, W. E. Honey, W. W. Jones, J. S. I Wilson, S. J. Allin, Dr. J E Moore and Dr J. L. Stewart, Mrs. Greatrix, Mr. and Mrs. Isaac McKee, Mr. and Mrs. H. Rogers, of Peterboro, W. S, Pedlar, Vancouver, Dr, Greenway, of Hamilton. Greetings were received from California, Oregon, Toronto and many other places, too late to be read at the Jublle celebration.

Each member of this group received from the little basket in the hands of Mary Dix and Margaret McKee, a badge of satin ribbon, suitably inscribed. A lady, who in her early teens sang in the choir when the church was opened and who aided with the Jubilee, was called upon to cut the cake, Mrs, J. F. Dix appeared in a blue satin frock, the style worn at the time she left the home of her father (Mr. J. Broad) to make a new home for her husband. The silver knife was handed to Mrs. Dix by little Betty Mark, great-grand- daughter of John Mark from whom the land was secured for the building of the first church and also a great- grand-daughter of John Broad, both of the building committee of 1871. Every person present received a small por- tion of the birthday cake. A brief historical sketch was pre- pared and presented by J. Stanley Dix and some interesting items were re- lated.- It was found that the con- tract price for the carpenter work in connection with the building of the church was $1045, the contract to furnish lumber, shingles, glass, hard- ware and all other materials. The shingles were sold at $2.50 per M. The whole edifice, planned to accom- modate about four hundred, was erected at a cost of $3,500. Two of the mail routes which pass through our vicinity, coming from Little Britain, have exchanged hands. Route No. 1 will be handled by Mr. George Aldred, and No. 2 by Mr. Geo. Varcoe. We wish these men every success in their new occupation. Both of these mail routes were formerly held by Mr. John Connor. Miss Velma Hall spent Wednesday in Toronto.
