DURHAM BHRflNlClE -' PAGE TWO Canadians are taking a great inter- est in our great exhibition. For many years it has taken the lead in annual exhibitions and stands first in the world. It has been well managed and each year for the forty-four years «if its existence shows an improve- ment on its 1"i1'edeeessi;ir. Every year shows need of added accommodation and new buildings are being added yearly. Since last exhibition the Coliseum and Pure Foods Buildings are nmgnilit-eni nil- ditions. Additional land was added margin in spare. Judging from for- mer records it seems the total at- temlanco for 1922. with favorable weather tlirm glmut, will encourage the dimctorate to, make a million and a half as an objective for 1923. Foods Buildings. are magnilieent atl- ditions. Additional land was added a few years and and now tho-5' arc crowded again and there is talk of filling in part of the waterfront in make the needed expansion. The buildings on the PXhihltinH gruumls are all substantial structures. The place is a city in itself, and yet the buildings. are used only a couple of weeks every year. It. is a truly wonâ€" derful exhibition and is getting het- ter every year. , \V'hy does it. succeed? may be a puzzle. to some, but we think the puzzle may be easily solved by watching the doings of the manage- ment. This year‘s show will scat-ce- ly be cleared away till preparations are begun for 1923. They never let up. i At time of writing we have the figures only up to Monday night. T 0 reach the objective of a million and a quarter, the attendance for the re- maining five days must total 339,000, or an average of nearly 68,000 a day. Opening day showed an attendance of 71.000. and if theOpening (lay pace can he kept up for the remaining days of the exhibition, they wiil eas- ily go "over the top" with a good FORMER BENTINCK RESIDENT GETS BIG LONDON CONTRACT Labor Day always draws a large crowd.

CANADA’S BIG SHOW â€" The Canadian National Exhibition, now in full swing in Toronto, is enâ€" joying tine weather and meeting, with excellent success in the way of large attendance. Their objective this year is to beat a million and a quarter and set a new high record. The attendance from the start has been in excess of 1921, every day, with one exception, being an increase on the corresponding day of last year. '1‘ he exception was on Tues- (lay of last week. when the turn- stiles registered only 186,000 against 23{‘>.000 on the COI'I‘CSpUnttlIlg day in 1021. This caused a temporary back- set. but. large increases over the pre- ceding year every (lax since has swelled the graml total to 911.000 on Monday night. or a total increase of 81,000 at that date over the attend- ance at the same time last year. “Mr. Putlierbough has} constructed much of the several public buildings of the city. including the new :‘igmli- cal School. He is busyjat present on the bridge leading to' the new uni- versity. buildings. Those who know him and his work assert that the arts building will be one that the city may take pride in.” - Both’gatisflod. \ (Toronto Telegram.) Coal miners and operators are both satisfied With agreement reached in V “IN, Editor and Water Thursday, September 7, 1922. -vvvv w vnsumers to A successful garden party was held under the auspices of the Ladies Aid of Priceville Methodist'Church on )Thursday, August 3-1- The spacious and pretty lawn of the parsonage was the scene of the festivities. The weather man favored the promoters with the most beautiful evening that could be desired. The air was balmy and the moon was bright. It coaxed the farmers, busy with harvesz, to put away Dobbin and get out Lizzie and take their wivesâ€"«or sisters. for a pleasure trip. They all agree that it was well worth while from exeryj standpoint. Supper was serwd out the parsonage lavm from 6 t) 8 pm.‘ and then it was dark enough to go into the church for the purfmse of listening to the numerous enterâ€" tainers present. Rev. J.’ H. Oke, theâ€" !pastor of Fleshcrton Methodist Church, made amost amiabl‘e and ef- ficient chairman, interspersing his witty remarks througlmut the pro- gram instead of making a lengthy I address. 111 order to save time and space just let us say that ex ervs election on the program held a high standard of excellence. The male quartctte of the Durham Methodist Church, c011- sisting of Messrs. MCCrae, Smith, Benson and Glass, accompanied by Mrs. McDonald, organist of the same church, rendered four selections. be- sides encores, and a special number by request. Miss Smith, a dainty lit- tle maid of tender years, also of Durham. is a child \vonder 111 vocal music and brought torth h earlv en- cores alter each number. Mrs. ll. McLean oi this \illag. 1 rendered lxvn selections in a way that. always deâ€" lights her numerous friends. Miss Sarah Tucker of Ebenezer gave 9 .1 o readings that were loudly amilaud- ed. especially the. 0110 that deem-"vi “The Ladies Aid" to be an indispe 1- sable department of any church. Robert. Dingwail ol' Saiem. a buddingr Methodist minister, recited tvve stir- ring 1111111bers that. showed up‘his platform ability. Rev. C. S. Jones, the resident Presbyterian pastor, arrived later f1't.1n1-l‘1ol(li11g prepara- tory service at. Swinton Park and gave :1 short address of greeting l'rem his coxtg‘reg‘alinii. Rev.

Bunt. Armstrong and the two Large buys. This orchestra is in a class by itself, because we do not knew of a similar group in this part, of the country, consistiig of violin. guitar, mandolin and ukelele. The most. wild and wierd music was ren- dered. calling to one's mind the pic- ture of halfâ€"clad natives and medi- cine men in the far-oft“ Pacific Isâ€" lands. lrlvery number was encorcd and by special request the t_)rchestra lmt the airlmiring audience back to the moon-lit lawn and played for over half an hour after the program was completed. Everyone present conceded the program to be one of the best they have heard and the lmlies ot' the Methodist Church are congratulating themselves on the successful evening brought. about by their efforts.
