R. BENTLEY JEWELLER and OPTOMETRIST EXHIBITION OF CANADIAN ART AT PORT PERRY HIGH SCHOOL. It was most unfortunate that so many other attractions were offered on Friday evening, because it made the attendance at the Art Exhibit at the High School quite small. . The exhibit was good; and consisted of Prints, Water Colors, Oil Paintings. There were original paintings by many famous Canadian Artists in- cluding Kenneth Forbes, George Thomson, Mary Wrinch, Arthur Lis- mer, George Reid, Arthur Heming, Herbert S. Palmer, Fred S. Coburn, J. W. Beatty, and many others. One of the most' striking pictures was "York Boat" by Arthur Heming. The coloring and scheme of the pic- ture both showed great boldness. "Trees" by Mrs. McGillivray Knowles, was a delightful contrast. The quiet beauty of the woodland scene carried its own spirit of rest- fulness. Still another contrast was the piece of commercial art by Philip Smith, depicting the smelting of iron. It was a perfect. representation of its kind. George Thomson's "An April Snowfall" was a very beautiful and delightfully accurate picture of snow in the woodland. "Francisa" by Kenneth Forbes, de- picted a young lady of wonderful beauty and poise. It is worthy of note that Kenneth Forbes has had the honour of having three pic- tures hung at one time at the Royal Academy in London, England. The collection of pictures was put on exhibition by "The Canadian Fine Art Guild," and was brought to Port Perry by the Literary Society of the High School. Mr. Carl G. Shearer was in charge of the exhibit. Mr. Shearer showed a couple of Lpictures by Bobby Everett, an eight year old boy living in Bracebridge.

The following is taken from the St. Petersburg Independant of February| ~ "The annual lawn bowling tourna- ment got away a- good start on Monday afternoon. The proceedings were opened by President Charles Gordon, who welcomed the visiting teams. Remarks of appreciation of the bowling club's activities were made by Mayor Adams and Al Lang. "Among the surprising upsets of the first day's games were the wins of 8S. Jeffrey over Dundas, McCartney from Ormerod, and the heavy scoring of Candelet in his game with the team led by Turnbull. 8. Jeffrey, skip, with F. H. Downs, A. J. MacDonald and Gury Richardson defeated W. W. Dundas, skip with H. H. Davison, C. L. McNaughton and H. H. McConaghy, 19-12 i A GEORGE CAMERON 94 George Cameron, hale and hearty, celebrated his 94th birthday by- a euchre party at the home of his daughter, Mrs, Hunt, in Long Branch. The Mail & Empire gives a picture of Mr. Cameron walking down town, looking like a young fellow of 70, amd devotes a full column to his history. Quite a few will recall George when he ran a shoe repaif business near where Mr. Owen is building his dairy, 40 years ago. el AP IN MEMORIAM In loving memory of a dear hus-|. band and father, Robert Town, who passed away February 17th, 1928. Oh, could I hear his voice once more And see his loving smile; The one that would my heart still cheer, But I must wait awhile Sometime, some day, my eyes shall see ir The face I loved so well; Some day I'll clasp his loving hand, And never say farewell. Sadly missed by his wife and son Clarence and family. -- iin eas wo FISHER NO-DRAFT VENTILATION COW SAFETY GLASS VENTILATOR IN MNDSHIELD FULLY ALL SCREENED VENTILATORS INDIVIDUALLY CONTROLLED CRI Eg 77 HORSEPOWER STRAIGHT 8 ENGINE A .

Mr. Editor: In your last issue we read the report of our Council's pro- ceedings regarding timely ggjustment of salaries and grants, and am sure our citizens quite approve if reduc- tion in salaries apply all round. 'We have yet to hear from our School Board. We have no desire to under-estimate the valuable services rendered by both our municipal and school officers; but we are all called upon to sacrifice and do our bit, through this period of depression, a condition which Prevails throughoys the world. We must not increase taxes, nor must we add to our capital debt. It 'is to be hoped that Port Perry will not be compelled' to adopt drasti methods applied in several other sec- tions, of our Province--close schools, or in some cases ask teaching staffs to take a few months' extra holidays without -pay. --RATEPAYER Pll ree - TIME TO PURCHASE SEED "The quality of the 1933 potato crop", said J. T. Cassin of the De- partment, "will depend to a large ex- tent, on the quality of seed planted. "Growers who have not selected seed for planting next spring, should not lose any time in doing so, as the supply may be limited by that time. "At present, the supply of Irish Cobblers is small. There is con- siderable quantity of "Rural New Yorkers (Dooley) variety. It should be remembered, however, that much of the certified Dooley crop is being marketed for table stock."
