The afternoon was spent by the and other ®ports, and by the older ones in re-newing old acquaintances. A very bountiful supper was served in the Sunday School room of the Church after which an organization meeting was held, Prof. A. G. Christie presiding which position he filled in| - a very acceptable manner. It was de- cided by the meeting to hold the re- union annually, the time and place being left to the executive committee.

Convener of Entertainment Commit- ner of Refreshment Commit- tee--Mrs. Lena Ward. "After" the election of officers ad- dresses were given by Miss Lizzie Mrs. John Anderson. Miss Christie, who is almost a nonagenarian, gave a brief but re- markably interesting history of the Christie's from the time they emi- grated from Perthshire, Scotland, time. Mr. Claughton gave an equally interesting sketch of the Claughtons from 'the time they left Leeds, Eng- land, about the year 1840. - Mrs, An- derson whose father was a Christie and her mother a Claughton supple- mented the remarks of the previous speakers. After the addresses a short .pro- gram was given consisting of vocal and instrumental selections and reci- tations by Miss Vera Miller, Mrs, Harold Sonley, Misses Lapp and the Misses Linton. ° The Christies and Claughtons have played a leading part in the life of this section of the Country ever since their arrival from the Old Land. The late John Christie, grandfather of the present generation of Christies at Utica, gave the land for the Presby- terian' Church, and another John Christie, father of Peter Christie and Miss Lizzie Christie, was instrumental in having the first church built which was opened in 1849, It was also through the generosity of-this branch of the Christies that the present beautiful new church: was built fifty years later on the same site, = Mr. Peter Christie served for many years in the Reach Council and was honored hy the County Council by being elected Warden.

Claughton, has _ been a noted breeder of thoroughbred saddle horses for many years.

All exhibits, races, parade, attractions and all that goes to make up the Fair, will be there that day. Pros- pects are that the exhibits will be large. People will not be tired from having been at Toronto Fair and there should be an immense crowd. The re- tail merchants of Oshawa are giving a beautiful set of dishes to the lady who has the lucky ticket. They are furn- ishing the tickets to every lady who comes to the Fair. - + There is no night show on the grounds, but on Tuesday night, Aug. 22, a big dance will be held in the Armouries and there will be booths and attractions on the streets. From present talk the streets will not hold the crowds. On Wednesday night there will be a street frolic after the Fair, and a Midnight Show in the Regent Theatre, commencing at 11. p.m. Everything is to be run on Daylight Saving Time. It 'is going to be a busy two days but the advantage to the guests this year is that everybody can see all their friends on the same day and see the whole show with two nights of good entertainment down town. The Directors ought to succeed this year as they have put a lot of effort into their job and expect big crowds. New Roof for Port Perry Schools At.a recent meeting of the Board of fe 'very bad conditions, * Mr.-and Mrs. A, E. Claughton, Ux- Mr. and Mrs, Ewart Dunn and fam-! Education, it was decided to put a new roof on the Port Perry Schools. The old roof, which was put on under has been giving considerable trouble for some years. Attempts have been made to repair the roof but without success. The com- pany that did the original roofing has gone out of business, so that there was no recourse but to do the job over again. The contract for the new roof has Jaen let to Messrs. Heather & Little, lof Toronto." The contract price is $1097.50. ° The new roof is to be of pitch and felt roofing, 'with a gravel finish. When the work is completed, twenty-year bond is to be, given to the Board, which4s to relieve that body lof responsibility as to maintenance, It has been decided to entirely res] move the former roofing, so thgt a {thorough inspection may be made of the deck upon which the roofing is laid. Any warped or defective boards "are to be removed. Middle School Examinations PORT PERRY HIGH SCHOOL Archibald D, Anderson, E. Comp. 1. Maxine M, Beare--Eng. Comp. 1, Eng Lit. 1, Anc.

D. Brown, at Brown's Corners, Scarboro, on Mon- day, August Tth. Of this pioneer fam- ily, many descendants are at present well-known citizens of the Western Part of the City, all of whom took an active part in the day's proceedings. "Greetings were extended and ex- changed between grandchildren, great grandchildren, cousins and friends, and it was a lively hour when some of the older members commenced re- miniscences of a quarter of a century or so back. Letters were read from members 6f the clan at distant points who all extended greetings to the gathering. . A review of the historical points in the family history, traced the coming of John Brown to Canada in 1820, of his establishing a home in the County of Lanark, and after a time, coming West to the District of Nassaue, and again later taking up a homestead in the district of York, a portion of which later became the County of Ontario. Fine Program The afternoon was spent in games and sports in which all the younger members enthusiastically participated. Addresses by members of the clan and their friends were much enjoyed, as well as the distinguished speech by the Hon, George S. Henry, who was the guest of Honor. Progress of Upper Canada Premier Henry delighted his hear- ers with his quaint picturing of the progress of Upper Canada during the past Century, and it was interesting to note that the pioneers of the Henry Family came into Ontario about the same time as the Browns, and both families had experienced the same mode of life and had travelled the same roads in their great work in building up the place of their choice. Other speakers included Dr. James Moore, of Brooklin; and the President, John Brown. A pleasing feature of the afternoon was a copy on display of the famous | Brown Family Tree, beautifully | en-| graved on Irish Linen and enclosed in a heavy oak frame, 36 x 26. This was presented to the York Pioneer His- torical Society, through their Vice- President, Mrs. O. B. Sheppard, and will be hung in the Temple Building at Sharon, Ontario. It is a 'perfect record of the John Brown family gen- ealogy for one hundred and fifty odd ients of a handsome carving-set..-- The clan gathered from many out- side points, including Glenboroe, Mani- toba; Winnipeg, West Toronto, To- ronto, Whitby, Oshawa, Brooklin, Myrtle, High Point, Port Perry, Sea- grave, Uxbridge, Sutton, Orillia, Cooper's Falls, Hamilton, Orangeville, as well as from Aberdeenshire, Scot- land, and New York.

The Conference was divided under three groups -- "Interdependence of Town and Country;" (1) Educational; (2) Economic; (3) Moral and Spirit- ual. Each group worked out its own ideas by itself and then brought its findings before the whole Conference. i The report of the group studying the "Kconomic Interdependence of Town and Country," under the leader- ship of Hon. E. C. Drury, was the sub- ject of much discussion when it was brought and so wide was the differ- ence of opinion that the suggestion of President Crozier that it be laid over until the next Conference was adopted. The report of the other groups, how- ever, were brought into Conference and adopted, The report presented by Hon. E, C. Drury's group was a very important one, and was as follows: "We believe that the present eco- nomic crisis, insofar as Canada is directly concerned, is largely due to the destruction "of the purchasing power of the farmer, which results in unemployment and distress in the urban centres. Among the rural pop- ulation, which constitutes one- half the ! people resident in Canada, this crisis has resulted in lowering the standards of living, in social and moral. deterior- ation, and it has seriously affected the effectiveness of the rural church and school. These conditions, are the re- sult of at least three causes: 2 71. The uneven distribution of the gold supply has been responsible for a sudden and- disastrous fall in prices.
