H MacDonald Dairy Horse Ran Away And Milk and Bottles Were Dis- tributed Along Highway for Con- siderable Distance. QUICK DELIVERY BY [OCAL MILK HORSE What might be termed a record in local milk delivery occurred yester- day morning shortly after 10 o'clock when a horse belonging to the Mac- Donald Dairy and driven by Frank Lake ran away. While the delivery was "quick" it wasn’t entirely sat- isfactory. as the milk and bottles were.spread along the highway from Upper Town to the Middaugh House corner and the former was not in fit form for human consumption when everything was quieted down. The cause was a broken hold- hack. and when the rig ran up. on the horse he started on a dead run down the Durham hill with the driver hanging on in a manner sim- ilar to the Roman charioteers of old. When the wagon hit the C. P. R. crossing at the foot of the hill the first spill occurred, and the run- away continued on down through the main street until the horse ran into a telephone pole at the Middaugh House corner. fell on the sidewalk, anol was captured. The animal was somewhat, though not seriously in- .iuruul. several milk bottles broken and 'Hlt‘ contents spilled. but the worst damage was to the wagon. which sull’eretl a broken front axle and hther mishaps.

JAMES TAYLOR TENDERED FAREWELL Pastor of Baptist Church Here Pre- sented with Purse Before Leaving for New Charge at Grimsby. Last Thursday night was “Rev. J. Taylor” night with the local Bap- tist congregation when the members of that body, with visiting clergy and the local press gathered to bid this popular pastor farewell before has removal to Grimsby and incid- entally to give him tangible proof of the. good feeling that has existed be-- tween him and his congregation sincenhe came to Durham four years ago. The evening programme commen- ced with a big supper at 8 o’clock, two sittings being necessary to ac- commodate the guests, and at which the ladies of the congregation ex- celled themselves in providing for the multitude. Following the sup- per, which was held in the Sunday school room of the church, the gathering adjourned to the auditor- ium, where numerous felicitous ad- dresses were delivered by the visit- ing clergy and the press. If there was any doubt regarding the pepularity of Mr. Taylor before this meeting, this was certainly re- moved by the time the various speakers got through with him. The addresses were delivered with a frankness that was genuine, and it must have been very gratifying to the recipient to know that he was held in such esteem by the clergy, the congregation and the press. With the exception of Rev. B. D. Arm- strong of the Presbyterian church, unavoidably absent while in attend- ance at a meeting in Toronto, all the local churches were represented and all spoke in the very friend- liest of terms for the departing pastor.

The exhibits this year are said to have surpassed in number those of any prg’gous Show and in talking to Secretary Neil Calder, The Chron- icle was told that it might with truth be said to have been H01- Stein‘s greatest. Show from the stamlpoint of entries and the ex- cellence of the various exhibits. The inside exhibits,\yere,especial1y good. From the cookies to the fancy work there was a superabundance of domestic art on display, the qual- ity, too, hould scarcely be excelled, and the judges were hard put to it. all along the line to pick the differâ€" ent Winners. Eyen those who failed to capture a prize had every reason to he proud of their handiwork and would most assuredly have been in the money at, may we say, almost any other show but that of the Eg- remont Agricultural Society. This year the directors thought it 'aiilvisable'to have a concert on both nights of the fair. and accordingly entertainments were given on Mon- day and Wednesday nights. The talent for the shows this year were local. the Holstein Dramatic Club, and they presented a farce entitled "His l'ncle‘s Niece". It was a most laughable production, created a good deal of interest. on account. of its local cast of characters, and put on a most credtable show. At the Monday entertainment there was a good crowd. .but on Wednesday it was a sell-out long before the gates opened for admission to the fair grounds. At 2 o’clock it was im- possible to secure a seat. and as we write this the play is in progress. ()n the grounds there was the same evidence of competition. W 1th the exception of the sheep class, which “as below last 3931‘ in en- tries, 8V erx other class had a great- er number of entries than at any othei exhibition in the history of the society. In horses and cattle, es- pecially. ‘the exhibits were very heavy. The sheep classes, however, rleSpite a shortage, had 81 animals on exhibition. ~ We have said before that the H01- stein ShOVV is the best. township fair in Ontario. bar none, and as the years go by and we see more of it weuare more than convinced that we are right. Wednesday is a bad day for a fair from the point of View of the editor of The Chronicle. This is our busy day and we have insufficient time at our disposal to take in all the fair and our observations were therefore made “on the fly”. We arrived on the grounds shortly after 3 o’clock and from then till dark Spent a busy but enjoyable time in looking over the different departments, espec- ially the outside exhibits._ GENE TUNNEY TRIUMPHANT An application of cold cash warms man up. A Good Concert HELD YESTERDAY The Presbytery of Gre of the United Church of Game ', which met at Division Street Church, Owen Sound on Tuesday, September 20th, listen to an address by the Rev. E. H. liver, M. A., Ph. D., principal of St.- Andrews College, Saskatoon, and one of the leaders of the church in Western Canada. Dr. Oliver stressed the fact that the Cross was in the Roman world the gallows, and that before Christ died upon it He bore the gallows in His heart. As His fellows the church and the believer must also hear the gallows in the heart.‘ There is de- manded real sacrifice and suffering if His kingdom is to be extended. The W'est of today is different to the West of the old days. There was the Old West, the Recent West, and the West of today. WESTERN CONDITIONS DISCUSSION AT . PRESBYTERY Rev. B. H. Oliver, of St. Andrews College, Saskatoon, Appealed to United Churches of East to Pur- ther Work of Church in Western Canada. The Old west is new esented bv the day of the explorer and the fur tre‘.der the day of missions among the Western Indians. days of conse- oration by the missionaries to their great task. The Recent West was character- ized more 113 settlement especiall3 01 British stock. the tolks from Ontario and further east, from the United States and from t..he:British Isles. During this period missions were established among the settlers, and towns were beginning and de- veloping, railways \\ ere being built. and life was pas sing irom the pioneer and explori 1ng age to that oi agricultural and social conditions. The Four Wests The Modern West was a West. with its new problems and outlooks. The development of the country was rapid and romantic and today we. have to face the results of that growth. Ponulation. agriculture. wealth, and social life have. increas- ed. and that increase has brought the problems of today. Every second person in Saskatchewan is nonâ€" Angloâ€"Saxon. with traditions and ideas that have not been such as we have received. Yet these people do desire to he- come Canadians, and we have to face the problem that their presence and purposes present. We cannot im~ pose upon them every detail of life. In their traditions and their outlook they have things to contribute and we should be willing to receive them and their contributions into our life. They need our fellowship. We need to understand them. Sympathy, co-operation, and fel- lowship is the demand of the peo- ples who have come to our Western lands. ' The task facing the Church today is to provide religious ser- vices. and Christian service to these peoples. Western Canada needs men on the frontier, in pioneer scuttle- ments. mung men, men of \ision and of faith. D1. Olixer indicated a new phase of \V estexn life when he said that he knew the East, and most of the people of Canadian birth in the W est todax had knovsn the East, but his boy did not knoa the East. Born in the West, educated in the W est, \\ ithout experience in On- tario and its life and conditions the new generation knew only Western Canada. Rev. \V. H. Smith, B. A., of Dur- ham the Chairman of the Presby- tor}. \\ ho had been to the meeting in Toronto on behalf of the Main- tenance and Extension Fund, S‘boke of the place of the church in the life of Canada and the need for the church in the life of the peeple. To maintain the work of the church would raise a twelve months’ budget for this part of the activities of the Church bx December the 3lst., then we could meet the past expenditure, balance the accounts and go for- ward to maintain the work of the Church. An interesting discussion followed these addresses and the presentation of the Presbytery Committee on Maintenance and Extension by Rev. J. E. Peters, M. A... of Meaford. Our local expenditure to keep up our own local church work was stated in the discussion to return in bene- fit to ourselves. Giving really start-. ed when we gave to this fund. Within the Presbytery enough had been given to organizations other than connected with the. funds to have decreased by half our failure to reach the mark we had antici- pated. The presentation of the need and the calls of the work impelled the Presbytery to endeavour to raise by December 31 the full year’s allotment, and to accept the obJec- The students sent from our col- leges that are due to leave their fields have never done better work than they have done this year, but the fields they are leaving are be- ing left vacant. The plea‘ of Dr. Oliver was for men. young men, strong men. the best men, to win and to hold Western‘Canada for God and for Jesus Christâ€"the Life and the Means of the Church to carry on, to advance the work in the prairie provinces. He showed that the money needed was but a small percent of the money spent on either gum, tobacco, candy and such things. and money translated into human life, sympathy and ser- vice was the call of the Maintenance and Extension Fund.
