The speaker took his text from Joshua 8 : 4; | owelling particularly on the words, "for ye have not passed this way hereto- tore." His plea was for an aggressive, fighting church, and he hoped that pas- tore and people would be one in thenew relation they were entering upen. A Sweceseful Suppor. The local Canadian Order of Forest- ers' Society has always been: noted for its successful suppers in years gone by. | That of this year, held on Thursday evening of last week in Mitchell's Music Hall, was just as pleasant and. enjoyable as those of former years. Notwith- standing the stormy night a geodty number of Foresters, with their wives and sweethearts, sat down to as elegant a& spread as one could well wish to enjoy. At 9o'clock D. G. Anderson, editor of THE BEE, took chargé of the programme which was of a thoroughly enjoyable nature. Those who took part were as follows:--Messrs. Darcy Grierson, Gee, Corrie, Geo.. Cocks, John Matthews, and Masters Cameron Struthers and Everett Coghlin and Mrs. Draper ef Brandon, formerly Miss Edith Harris, and Misses Elsie Struth- ers, Jennie Harvey, and Newcomb, who aoted very. efficiently as accompanists, Al the singers excelled themselves, ead received hearty encores. Mr. to Atwood audiences, but his sweet tenor voice made him an instant favorite. He is a member of the Listowel] Maie Quartette. Mr. Cocks sang with spirit and received a bearty encore. Geo. Corrie, with his goodnatured smile showed that he is still a favorite with home audiences, Mrs. Draper sang very sweetly, and upon being encored responded with an exquisite piano.solo. Masters Cameron Strathers and Everett Coghlin rendered a duett in pleasing style and the former sang two catchy songs which were vigorously applauded.

A private service would. necessitate a switch board at Hoimes's store and would also necessi- tate Mr. Holmes having an employee to look after the services entirely, The service however will prove a great con- venience in many ways and in course of time we may bave it strictly private. E. J. Smith of the: Whyte Packing Co., Stratford, was a guest at the Odd Fellows At home on Wednesday even- ing.. He showed us a group photo of six Elma boys taken. by a Stratford photographer. These six stalwarts totalled in weight 1260. lbs. an average of 21¢c lbs. Their names are as follows: E. J. Smith, Dr. Sam Gray, Jas. A. Gray, J. W. Ward, Wm. Hamilton and Richard Gray, Itis a splendid photo and we suggested that it should be reproduced in the Toronto Saturday Globe, just to show what Elma can produce in the way of brawn and brain. 4. 0. 0. F. At Home. The local Odd Fellows held another very successful At Home in Mitchell's Music Hall on Wednesday evening when about 100 people were present to enjoy a social evening. The early part of the evening was taken up with games of various kihds an¢* ith a short bat much appreciated p.cgram. One of the attractions of the program was the music provided by the pianola owned | | by Dr. Langrill. This instrament is attached to the piano and the perform- er sits in front of the instrument and by turning the motive power furnished by a small motor, many different tunes can be played, the {performer controll. ing the expression by use of the-pedals. The sound of the piano is toa certain exteht muffled, but still the music pro- vided is very pleasing, The program was as follows: Pianols solo, Mrs, Mc- Bain; Song, Mrs. Kidd; Solo, Miss Smith; Addres#, Dr. Kidd; Solo, Miss}: Ageie Dickson; Address, E. J. Smith; Violin Instfamestal, T. G. Tennant; Recitation, Jas. Donaldson. Refresh- ments were sefved about mid-night, after whieh dancing was indulged in enjoy#) for some. few hours.
