NEWS AROUND TOW’ N BUSINESS LOCALS Mr. Parker Lost Everything. Many of our readers will remem- ber Mr. and Mrs. Richard Parker, who left. here about twenty years ago to settle in New Ontario, and will regret to learn that he lost evâ€" erything in the destructive forest tire of two weeks ago. On leaving here he took up land a few miles north of New Liskeard, and a year or two later the country was fire-swept and he~lost considerable property, and with his wife and family nar- rowly escaped with their lives. As, many will remember, the Parker' family, were all fond otjmusic, and Were good church workers. In the vicinity of their new home a church was soon erected and what they left here in church work was entered there with equal enthusiasm. In the new country, and under the new ,conditions,‘ they sufi‘ered the hard- ships of pioneer life, but through thrift and industry they brought up their family and acquired a little property. We believe they were doing well, and to have. their prop- erty swept away in a few hours is a hardship few people of such ad;- vanced years can scarcely hope to overcome.

Inspector Wright was about the first to arrive at Markdale Soho-01 the {morning of the first day and about the last to leave on Friday‘ evening when the meeting was over.

Mr. West and Messrs. Thorn and Bur- rows of Holstein, accompanied by Miss Rosie West; a recitation by Mrs. (Rem) Cole of Durham, and suitable addresses by Revs. Cole and Cameron of Durham Methodist and Baptist church, respectiVely. 'On Monday evening a fowl supper was served and the attendance was so large that, we learn, some were unable to gain admission. The edi- bles in every line were the best to be obtained, and those who were fortunate enough to participate in the function enjoyed themselves to the fullest extent. The good peOple of V’arney are noted for the excelâ€" lence of their suppers and enter- tainments and seldom fail in securâ€" ing the patronage they deserve. VARNEY ANNIVERSARY SERVICE DREW BIG CROWDS SUNDAY Anniversary services in connecâ€" tion with Varney Methodist Church were‘ held on Sunday last, followed by a fowl supper on Monday even- ing. Both Sunday services were conducted by the Rev. G. S. Scott, Presbyterian minister of Holstein, when excellent and apprOpriate serâ€" mons were delivered to large and appreciative audiences.

Mr. Nicholson preached two strong serâ€" mons and was listened to by large congregations on both occasion who were much impressed by his utterâ€" ances. The work at Chalsworth for the day was taken by the Rev. F. G. Hardy of this place. Tomorrow night, from 6 to 8 p. m. a fowl supper will he served in the Town Hall, after which a program will be given. ANGLI CAN HARVEST ~ FESTIVAL WAS WELL ATTENDED 011 Friday night the first or a ser- ies of Harv est Festivals was held in 'lrinit3 Church, when a community serxice was held and a full house listened vs ith interest to a refreshing seimon delix ered by the Rev.

Taking his text from the \\ ords “Happy are the people whose God is the Lord.” he emphasized mateiial wealth and educational fa- cilities imbued with moral tenden- cies as factors in making a great and a happy people. But material 1110sper1ty is onl3 a minor part and a nation to be truly great and happy is under the necessity of a consci- ousness of God possessed by the individual.
