Mr. Dugald H.

During the latter years of his life, Mr. Gilchrist was an invalid, sutfering more or less from various ailments, but he bore all with Christian fortitude and humble resignation to the will of God, in whom be trusted with an unfaltering faith, rarely seen in these latter days. For some years the deceased was an elder in the Port Elgin Preshyterian church. and so far as he was ablediSCbu'ged his duties to the church and congregation with a conscience void of oflence toward God nr man. Many there will miss his‘ regular visits as elder, and his kindly words of comfort and cheer at such times will inspire to better deeds and nobler living for many a day to come.

The Ancient Order of United W'ork- men at Priceville are giving a. grand concert on Friday evening, Dec. 11th. With such talent as Bert Harvey, Miss E. Campbell, John Dundas and the Proton Orchestra, the concert is almost sure to be a success. It’s quite a pleasure to see the regu- larity with which the C. P. R. trains, I arrive at the station here. Travellers ‘ intending to use the line must be on 1 hand in time, as the train generally arrives and leaves right on the minute. This condition of things is very satis- factory, as connection from the east is always made with the trains from Toronto going north. So far there have been no blockades to interfere with the traffic. A Progressive School.--Tbe Central ‘ Business College of Stratford has proven itself to be the great practical training school of Western Ontario. They have three departments,â€"â€"Cmn- mercial, Shorthand and Telegraphy. Their graduates are in demand. The management are extensive advertisers, being firm believers in the use of m-inters' ink. See their card elsewhere printers' ink. b in our columns. Election matters are very quiet in?L town so far, but when the time comes there will likely be a sufficient number of aspirants. The present council doesn’t suit everybody, but there is nothing strange in this. No body of men, however good, could please the whole community. We believe Mayor : Calder will be out again for the' Imayoralty, and some slight whispers iby Mr. Hunter. The latter is mere ICOHJBCLUPB, and beyond the answer "sure thing” from Mr. Calder, on ask- lingif he intended to run again, we l‘have no definite knowledge of his 1 intentions. DURHAM. \Ve understand that Mr. Thomas McFadden intends to retire from Municipal life at the end of the present year. For many years he has served on the council board in Glenelg town- ship, for anumber of years past as reeve. Few men. we believe. pass out. of public life with . a cleaner record‘ than Mr. McFadden, and though he may have opponents in his municipal contest, we believe he has but very few enemies. The names of George I Arrowsmith and Edwin Hunt are :spoken of as probable candidates for i the reeveship of 1909. and it is thought . too that Mr. Archie McCuaig will offer 1 himself again this year as a candidate. I They are all good honorable man. and l are sufficiently experienced to fill the l position. Until after the nominations, ? however. nothing definite can be said. It will pay all readers within a rea-' sonahle distance of Durham tolread' the advertisements appearing in the Chronicle from week to week. Our business men are determined to get the attention of the public by a judiâ€" cious use of printers’ ink. We do not i know that we are giving away any secrets when we say that many of the merchants have been carrying heavy stocks and they have decided to reduce them at a. great reduction on the orig- inal cost. It must not be inferred, however, that the goods offered are old and out of date. ' Many of them are fresh and new, and purcnasers coming to this town are sure to get good values for their moneys. Some, of course, are dissatisfied, as they al- ways will be. but we are safe in saying. that in our twelve years’ experience: we have heard more satisfactory re-i marks about bargains than we ever did before, and we believe that real bargains are being given every day.‘ and that many purchasers are leaving f town fully satisfied and determined to i return again soon.
