Adam, Cain, Abel and the Children of Israel were all religious in their way. He also referred to Jereboam, Martin Luther and the Covenanters, who are now regarded as right or wrong inltheir conten- tions as decided by history.

A The above was the result of the first bowling tournament ever at- temptedby the Durham Club. The tournament yesterday was a success in every way, the only objection, perhaps, being that it was a bit too cold for the spectators. “ The Hahn trephy, a handsome one donated by Mr.' Oscar Hahn of the liahn House, was played ten for the first time yesterday, and though it is now in Owen Sound, the locals have hepes of ultimately bringing it back to its native heath. ' ”WV“ vv In all, sixteen rinks were in at- tendance, there being nine visiting rinks. Though small in number, it may be accounted for in two ways. In the,first place, the Durham club has not got the accommodation to accommodate a large tournament, and only a limited number of clubs were notified; in the second place there were big tournaments held at *Listowel and Fergus yesterday, and these, no doubt, drew some of the rinks that would otherwise have come to Durham. The local club, however, is well pleased with their first entry into the tournament game. The following is the score: ‘ FIRST EVENT First. Round. Chatsworth 1 McFarlane, 15 Owen Sound.

The couples will spend their will later leaxe for a camping party at Rocky Camp, a iew miles from Durham.” Needless to say, the citizens of Durham are a unit. in wishing the young couples a full measure of hap- piness and prosperity.
