There is a possibility that the garden party of Trinity Anglican church may not. be held this year, and, at any rate, the date of holding is called off for the present. ‘ The garden party was to have been held last Friday evening, but was {DOStDOHQd to Monday evening or this week on account of rain. Mon- day broke fine and clear and con- tinued so all day, but about five o’clock a heavy rain fell and so dampened the ground, and the-ardor of those in charge that another postponement. this time indefinitely was decided upon. The Pres- byterian garden party Friday night made further dates this week im~. possible, and as the season has been a very catchy one and other garden parties are in sight. there is a possibility that the 1924 event. for Trinity church may be called off altogether.

Tie didn’t ask him when he was married. nor to whom, but learned of his family of five. one daughter: .is engaged in missionary work in ‘China. . We are pleased to find him hale and hearty in mind and body after the trying vicissitudes of forty-one years in the ministry. either as a preacher or as a student. ‘We are not one of those who think the min- ister‘s life is an easy one. From our first meeting with Mr. Caldwell over a quarter'of a century ago, we have held him in high esteem and always enjoy his brief visits. The following stations have been held by Mr. Caldwell sinco 1890: Nassagaweya, Ponsonby, Everton. Kerr, Burt'ord. F onthill, Allenford. Hagersville. Waterford. Cum-ie‘s Corners, and now Georgetown, where he x'vas sent in 1923 in midsummer. ‘ After leaving Hanover in 1884, Mini Caldwell went, to Arkwright, where' he remained a year. In 1886 he en-l tered the Wesleyan Theological Col-' logo in Montreal. where he remained ! until 1890. when he completed liisi theological course and was ordained. we presume, but on this point we are. not sure. This was the way when Mr. Cald- well entered the ministry in 1883, especially in churches having su- perintendents and probationers. About that time. we think, the prac- tice ofhaving local preachers had partially died out. _‘_ __'â€"â€"â€" In the course of our brief conver- sation, we learned he was first sta- tioned at. Hanover as young man on the Hanover circuit. It may not be [known to all our readers that in the early days of Methodism two minis- ters were sent to each station, one being designated as superintendent, and the young man the probationer. In addition to this there were local preachers, men selected from a- mongst the laity. Church plans were found in the homes of all members. These gave the names of the appoint- ments and the name of the preacher for each Sunday in the quarter. By this means every church had service once every Sunday, and twice in some of the more important ap- pointments. Rev. and Mrs. H. Caldwell and daughter of Georgetown are visiting their many friends and relatives in the vicinity of Varney. Mr. Caldwell has been a reader of The Chronicle for many years, and it has been fol- lowing everywhere he‘has been since he entered the ministry in 1883. He was in to see us Tuesday and inci- dently tofollow his usual custom of paying hlS subscription.

Now that the wheat is being cut, the wet weather, while not doing any damage so far, will, if it con- tinues add more worries to the tillers of the soil. Especially is this true, we are told, if followed by much warm weather which will start the wheat sprouting. There are a lot of people, farmers included, who would like to see that jazz song, “It Ain’t Goin‘ to Rain No Mo’ ” become a reality during the next two or three weeks.

The catchy weather this season is working much hardship and incon- venience on the farmers of this district in the housing of their crop. Ever since haying started there have been but few days in succes- sion that it did not rain. During the past week especially, a great deal of difficulty has been experienced in finishing up and there are few who will not have more or less hay damaged by rain. ‘ ' Rev. E.
