M The July meeting of the W.A. was held at the home of Mrs. F. Vickery, with a good attendance. There were upwards of forty present. The Presi- dent presided and after the devotional period, the' minutes of 'the last meet ing were read and approved. Several favorite hymns were. sung. After the business session the committee took 'charge of the following programme; piano instrumental by Mrs, L, Hunter, reading by Miss G. 'Vickery, "The Ladies' Aid", plano selection by Miss Strickland, 'of Oshawa; reading by Mrs. Murphy. The principal part of the program was a pleasing and inter- esting description of her trip to Europe, visiting England, Iteland, Scotland, and® Holland, last summer, by Mrs. A. H, Johnston of Alex- andria. Following this; supper was served in the dining room by Mrs. Vickery asisted by Mrs. Luke, Miss Strickland entertained at the piano while supper was in progress. Pro- ceeds were six dollars, We were pleased to have Mrs. Fallis and Mrs. T. Dobson at our meeting, as well as several other visitors. A former. resident of the village, Mr. Richard Robertson, late~of Osh- awa, passed away quite suddenly on July 80th, while he-and his wife were visiting- relatives at Markham. : The funeral took place on Monday to Pine Grove Cemetery and was largely at- tended. Besides his widow, formerly Miss Almeda Prout, he leaves two village and Mr. M. Robertson of To- ronto, and one sister Mrs. E. A. Walker, of Port Perry. Mrs. J. Warren and sister Mrs. F, Watson are visiting in Oshawa. The latter has just returned from a trip to British. Columbia and Saskatche- wan. Mrs, Watson esteems British Columbia very much.

Williamson and Betty, of Toronto, also . the former's parents, | and Miss F. Barkey of Stouffville. Rev. F. A. Lawson, a secretary of The Lord's Day. Alliance, preached.a timely sermon here on Sunday, on the subject "The Sabbath as a Memorial". He informed us of the good work this organization is doing. A full and enjoyable day was spent by many from here-at Port Perry on 'Monday. Following one of the after- noon's main attractions, the dust- raising, thrilling motorcycle races, doubtless soap and a basin of water were the most wished for attraction. 'Mr. Roy Thoms is spending a few days in Toronto, Miss I. Swanick was with Mr. ajid Mrs. Philp on Sunday. . Mr. Worden Sonley called att old home here on Saturday. Mrs. L. Strickland and daughter, the latter of the Simcoe St. South Public School staff, Oshawa, visited with Mr. and Mrs, F. Vickery on Wed- nesday, The past week witnessed a rather contemporary display of the good old days of gallantry. Almost wherever one looked could be seen some knight --errant with a set look on his face, an anxious glance in his eye stead- fastly approaching his prospective lady, be it by foot, auto or-even horse. Then on Tuesday evening the same chevaliers, some rather bashfully (these were the less experienced) others as bold as lions (the ones who had been in the game long r) could be seen, each one leading hid fair com- panion towards ~the. school where 'stood Herb. Tombes' truck. - When Herb. sounded the "all aboard" even as in the days of Noah, two and two they entered the wheeled ark. Our merry journey led us down to Steph- enson's Point, where we eagerly dis- embarked to go trouping down to test the water first with our hands and then after a full dress alteration with the whole anatomy. Soon most of us were flopping around like "revelling" chickens might 'act, Unlike chickens, however, in the respect that we did was the sojourn on account of the chilliness: of the air when we had to finally emerge for breath. By the time we were dressed some of the "bachelors" (or they may have been widowers), had almost complete- ly prepared a tantalizing, appetizing pot of weiners over a small stove. Every person received three 'red hots" each" snugly lying in its "bun bed" and warmly tucked in, with a profuse covering of mustard. Then to make sure every .stubborn "dog" reached its destination safely we each received about one and a half bottles of "pop. " PRINCE ALBERT: charge of the service. perb's ark. The journey home was rather quiet in places. Probably we had been seized by a mood similar to pussy cat's following such a feast, 'the journey was safely accomplished and the disembarkation occurred at Aldred's corner. + No doubt in every heart burned the fond desire for an- other 'weiner roast: or something in the near future, . About thirty-five young people were present. Much credit is due to Roy Thoms, who in the main, was respons- ible for the Smooth way the event was held. Monday, Wednesday and Friday still find the boys kicking away at the football. : While picnicing with his taihily at Chalk Lake, on Saturday last Harold Edwards, lost his life while swipm- ing. Frantic efforts were made to rescue him but all efforts failed. Interment was made at Pine Grove Cemetery after service at the family residence here. The sympathy of the village is extended to Mr. and Mrs. Edwards and family in their tragic bereavement. : y -re- -- MANCHESTER /| One -of our oldest and highly re- spected residents passed away at his home here on Thursday evening, July 30th, in the person of Joseph Mitchell beloved husband of Alimina Emery.

What might have been a very ser- ious fire was noticed last week just south of Miss Adams' house, on the concession line. Fire started in the dry grass and was spreading very fast toward house. It was within 20 feet of the hedge before it could be extinguished by Mr. Gerrow and his neighbours. People should be very careful these day with fire when everything is so dry. BE SURE. Messrs.
