Mr. Smith went on to explain the doctrine and policy of the basis of uninn, specially emphasizing things that would continue in the Presby- tvrian llhurch the same as at present and 3150 those that would he differ- nut. meet immigration ships at ports of entry, and also in the missionary field.

Hunter is an old Dur- .ham boy in the real sense of the term, having been born and raised here, and his success in his chosen life as a member of Britain’s mili- tary forces is very gratifying to many old friends and acquaintances.

I" ._ J l ‘ ‘ “In a recent letter home, he stated that he had been meeting with good success with the {our horses he was racing, but his win of yesterday is the best of his racing career, as the Grand National is one of the big classics in India.” Since leaving Durham nearly 30 years ago, Lieut.-Col. Hunter has been in many lands and undergone many experiences. Graduated from the Royal Military College at King- ston, he entered the army as a young man, going out to India about 25 years ago. During the great war, Colonel Hunter and his regiment distinguished themselves in India, Persia, Mesopotamia and other places, as a result of which Colonel Hunter was decorated with the Dis- tinguished Service Order. After the armistice, Colonel Hun- ter was the British representative in the United States, but returned to India three or four years ago to again take command of his regi- ment. “The Grand National race at Cal- cutta, .India, was yesterday won by The Gift, owned by Lieut-Col.

He left Scot- land with his parents when six years of age and settled in Vaughan Town- ship. Three years later the family came to Glenelg and settled on the farm on which he died, and which is now occupied by his son, Mr. James MacGillivray with whom the deceased and his estimable wife, who survives, has made his home for several years past. About 37 years ago, Mr. MacGil- livray was married to Miss Janet McNab. Two sons and two daugh- ters were born to them, one son dy- ing in childhood. The survivors are James on the homestead; Annie, (Mrs. Gomm) Wilkie, Sask.; and Miss Christena, in Toronto. A'bro- ther, James MacGillivray, in Glen- elg, survives. Neil MacGillivray, a brother, died January 6, i924, and a sister, Mrs.“ Webbcr in April,__1924_. Another of the pioneers of Glenelg Township, in the person of Mr. Don- ald MacGillivray, passed to his re- ward on Monday eveni about 10 o‘clock after a brief il ness from heart trouble. Though ailing for a considerable time, Mr. McGillivray was able to be up and around up to the day of his death. About a week ago, he was taken suddenly ill but recovered somewhat only to be tak- en suddenly worse on Sunday even- ing. On Monday evening he was up and sitting in hs chair, and about eight o’clock complained of not feeling well. Unassisted he re- tired to his bed, and passed away about ten o’clock the same evening.

N. R. pens for shipment, and while :the animal did not. trot along quite :as harmlessly as Mary’s little lamb, it gave but little trouble on the way to the station. The animal was one of those high-strung creatures, and we understand, had on a former occasion cut up similar didoes when the time for shipment arrived. Shortly after heng incarcerated in the cattle palace. it broke out and headed back over the beaver mea- dows for points not on its schedule. The crowd made chase. but the steer made better time over the rough surfaces and was soon lost in the swamp near the Saugeen river west of town. After this second exper- ience, Mr. Noble decided to shoot the animal and enlisted the services of Mr. McLachlan for that purpose. After a hunt or half an hour or so, the animal was located and disâ€" patched. “Shooting the bull” around the cm'nor'grocorios is conceded a pop- ular pastime in small town life dur- ing thewintor months, but it re- maincd fur J. A. McLachan, grocer of this town, to invent a new amuse- ment {0? outdoor exorcise. He has namml it. “shooting tho steer" and thereby hangs a story.

An interesting part of the pro- gram was the presentation of prizes for regular attendance during the year. First, there was a prize for each class, ald also two special prizes, one for children under ten years and the other for those over that age. The priZe for the former, a mamma doll, was won by little Miss Mary Firth, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Firth. Master Clif- ford Ri‘sadhead was the winner of the hook given to the pupil over ten years of age. Last Friday night the children of the Anglican Sunday School were treated to a sleighing partK by the officials of the school. Wit the as- sistance of Messrs. W. J. Firth and George Noble, Jr., who provided teams and sleighs, the children were taken for an extensive sleighing par- tv, after which all adjourned to the church basement where refresh- ments, games and other amusements were indulged in. The evening is reported a most successful one, and one which will long be remembered especially by the smaller attend- ants at the school.

Lloyd, Mcllraith and Catton, has been in continuous op- eration since that date, has provided good, clean amusement for its pat- rons and has prospered, we believe, as well as any similar institution of its kind in a town the size of Durham.
