Whit- more and baby, of Lake, Mr. and Mrs. C. Whitmore and Miss Adams, of To- i ronto, were all recent visitors of Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Redman, i What might have been a serious ac- | cident occurred last week when -Mr. W. E, Redman was unloading sheaves in the barn, something went wrong with the sling chain outfit, part of which fell, striking him over the eye, We are glad it was no worse. Mr. and Mrs. Harry A.

Did you know that our cousins to J south of the Great Lakes are really $i taught very much about this - fair 5% Canada of ours? An example of this came before us only a few weeks ago, when friends motored from the South to this neighbourhood. They brought along their winter flannels which they thought they would surely need when they reached this frigid zone. Be- fore leaving Windsor, they said to the "bowser man"--I guess we had better take along plenty of gas, as the filling stations will be so far apart in this country." "How far are you going?" said he. "To Toronto". "Oh you will be alright, they put up two or three stations there last winter." (A true story.) A terriffic storm of rain, wind and electricity passed over this district on Tuesday evening of last week, It rolled up very rapidly from the south- west, about half past seven. The black, angry clouds seemed to open up and let fall from out pf them a sea of water. The wind roared about the buildings and tore through the trees, swaying and bending them as though they were shrubs. The lightning was wicked and so vivid and sharp that the picture of the surrounding landscape remained in front of one's eyes for seconds gfter each flash. We, who are 8o favoured in this part of the world, wondered what would be the result of the storm, as thoughts flash- ed through our minds of cyclones and tornadoes which visit other parts of the. hemisphere and bring such de- DON CHRISTIAN ELECTRIC 38 Simcoe St., N.

The electric power went off al- most as soon as the storm commenced, leaving the village in darkness. Then we stumbled and groped about in the dark, ly seeing our way by the flashes of lightning, until we found the humble little candle or coal oil lamp. There have been many electric storms this summer but not one of such violence as that of last Tuesday; and we hope there will not be another one like it this summer. Mr. and Mrs, Elwood Masters, Mr. and Mrs. Hervey Painter and June, spent Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. L. Webb of Manvers. Much sympathy is felt for Mr. C. Holman and Mr, L. L. Ross of Dag- mar, who suffered the loss of a barn and contents by fire, during the storm of last Tuesday. Mrs. Moran of Demorestville, who has been with her mother, Mrs. L. Mitchell, for sometime, has returned to her home, } Mr. Geo. Williams and daughter Doreen, of Toronto, spent Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. Robt. Britton. Mr. Barton, who was home from Orangeville where he is relieving, re- turned Sunday evening. OSHAWA PRESBYTERIAL TO MEET IN"BOWMANVILLE ON OCTOBER 28th, The executive meeting of the Osha- wa Presbyterial of the Woman's Mis- sionary Society of the United Church, was held in Simcoe Street Church, in Oshawa, Monday, August 22nd, with an attendance of 23.

The date of the annual meeting of Oshawa Presbyterial will be October 28th, in' Trinity United Church, Bow- manville. There will be three sessions, viz.: morning, afternoon and evening. It was suggested that the various secretaries present their reports by means of posters at the annual meeuw ing in October. Suggestions for these .posters will be found in "Missionary Windows" and at the School for Lead- ers, which will be held at Ontario Ladies' College, Whitby, August 29th to September 2nd. It was requested that the posters be uniform in size. The treasurer's report showed a slight increase for the first six months of 1938. Mrs. N. Rickard, Secretary of Christian Stewardship and Finance, presented her report in a very capable manner. She stressed immediate at- tention to plans for finance for future activity, that the year 1938 will see the allocation met. She said the re- sults of efforts are subjects of con- tinued prayer, The tentative date of the meeting of the 1938 executive was set for Jan, 19th, 1939, at 2 p.m. in Simcoe Street United Church, Oshawa, Refreshments were served under the convenership of Mrs. W.
