M. CUTTS, Artist, Dies Widely known as a portrait and marine painter, William Malcolm Cutts, A.R.C.A,, 0.S.A,, died here on January 20th, in his 86th year. He had been a resident of Port Perry since 1914 and despite his advanced 'age was still active in painting land- scapes. Mr. Cutts was born at Allahabad, India. He began his career as an artist at Stratford at the age of 13. Ten years later he opened a studio in Toronto. . From 1909 to 1912 he re- sided in England and 'devoted his gifts to ocean studies on the coast of Cornwall. Returning to Canada he settled in Port Perry. He was elected to the A.R.C.A. in 1908. He was also a member of the O0.S.A. and was an Anglican. His most prominent marine, entitled, "The Close of a Breezy Day", hangs at St. James Club, Montreal. Mr. Cutts' hobby was playing the violin for which he had a talent. - He was twice married. . He was first married in 1882 to Charlotte I. Hogarth, who died some years ago. His second wife, Gertrude Spurr Cutts, artist and landscape painter, died 18 months ago. Surviving are two daughters, Mrs. W. S. Quint of Calgary and Mrs. E. I. Breckon of Port Perry, and two sons, William H. Cutts, of Toronto, and George B. Cutts of Freeport, N.Y. cil ---- The passing of William Cutts at his home in Port Perry, marks the -re- moval of an honored citizen of rare ability. He was an artist in the truest sense of the word. He sought to express-what he saw of the beauty and strength of nature truly, His marine pictures gave special evidence of his power in this respect. He loved his work and has left in his large col- lection of canvases, an enviable monu- ment of artistic ability. In social conversation he showed a keen understanding of both matters of current interest; and, what is more rare, an insight of the realms of the mental and spiritual. - It was a plea- sure to talk with him. He took nothing for granted; but thought his way through to well considered conclusions. The funeral service was conducted at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Breckon, Rev. Wm. Stocks officiating. His eulogy of Mr. Cutts and his work was a beautiful and understanding tri- bute. ' Interment was made at Pike Grove Cemetery, EVENING AUXILIARY W.M.S.

The meeting was opened by the singing of O Canada, ac- companied 'by Helen Peel. meeting in the absence of our presi- dent. The chairman's remarks were given followed by the minutes of the last meeting, which were read by Secretary Bob Wiliams and adopted. As the business' part was "short and sweet", 'the programmnie soon began, The White Phantom, a one-act play, was introduced by Doreen Johnson. It was a thrilling mystery play with a unique plot. Mrs, Drexel Blake, who had social ambitions, rented the old-fashioned residence belonging to the Kingsley Estate. She was pre- paring to move in on the morrow and was waiting for Eleven Moore, her coloured maid, who was coming to help with the cleaning. Eleven was late and while waiting for her to put in an appearance, the lights went out, pistol shots were heard and all sorts of weird happenings occurred. At- tracted by unusual noises, Officer Jer- ry Nolan arrived and took charge. The suspense was tense and gripping and the final denouement amazed and interested all. After the curtain call, we were favoured with musical num- bers by Bob Dowson and Wesley Jackson. Then followed the second one-act play, Brothers in Arms, in- troduced by Dorothy Tristram. Bro- thers in Arms was originally produced at Hart House Theatre, Toronto, in April, 1921 and included in the cast Walter Bowles, the well-known news commentator, as J. Altrus Browne, and Merrill Denison, the author, as Charli¢" Henderson. The play was a comedy with a slight plot. The Major wanted to get back to the city and Syd refused to be of any assistance until thé last moment. The suspense created by that conflict was sufficient to tide us over "the discussion of Charlie's whereabouts, of the war, and of the deer shooting. The surprise came when we learned that Syd might have driven the car all the time. This caused the Major's final outburst and brought the play to an end. Be- hind the stage were Jack Whitmore in charge of stage properties, Bill Hayes taking care of the sound and lighting effects and curtain, Marie Mitchell and Margaret Hocken as prompters, Everyone found the two one-act plays very entertaining. The occasion was a happy one as after the programme most of the "younger set" delighted in dancing, which con- cluded the evening, We wish to thank all- who attended. The girls have been playing basket- ball lately., On Thursday afternoon of last week, the Junior girls played a game. The competing teams were Grades 1% and X. Although these game wl to be very interesting with a final score of 15-14 in favour of Grade X. ut ue CHURCH OF THE ASCENSION VESTRY MEETING The annual Vestry meeting of the Anglican Church held on Tuesday evening was well attended, The re- ports of the Parish organizations gave evidence of a year of excellent work.
