DURHAM GHEONIGLE \Ve regret exceedingly to Chronicle: the death of Mr. Neil McKechnie who ? departed this life on Saturday evening 3 last after an illness: of eight or ten f weeks duration. The deceased was ‘ sixty ~t'our years of age, but exceeding- ly active till a a few weeks ago when he was prostrated by sickness, coming it is supposed, from some affection of the liver and other complications. In- timately acquainted with the deceased for the past five or six years we find the task of writing an obituary a sore trial indeed. Often have we felt that the present business bustle of this town is due in no small degree to the energies of the deceased who fought in the face of apparently insurmount- difliculties for the development of our natural resources. The Cement Mill, he saw completed, but he had other schemes in view. and his work, it seemed was not finished. To Neil JcKechnie more than any other man The (.‘onservntive party loses 21 vul- ned member by the death of the hm- Henry (Ru-gill which ovcurred so sud- denly and llTlt‘Xpt‘PtOdiy in the I-Itmse of Commons inst week. At home Mr. Cargiil was the most highly respevted man in the community. and in the House he was loved and admired by politir‘u‘. opponents as well :18 his po- litiml i'I'itflHiS. Interment took place at Corgi}! on Snturduy lust. and the funeral ‘.'21.\‘ one of the largest, if not the largest. ever seen in the County of Bruce. The Members of the House who were present on the occasion were Henderson. of Hulton. Boyd. of Sol- kirk, Manitoba, Clark. of Kincardine, Haliduy. of (Thesley. Sproule, of Mark- dale, and Senator )IcBIullen, 0} Mount Forest. Two hundred and eighty con- veyances were vounted in the sad cor- tege which followed the rz-uuz‘tins. Durham, Oct. 8, 1903. Not less mourned is the. death of Dr. Landerkin which occurred on Sun- day last at his home in Hanover. F or many years the Doctor represented this constituency in the House of Commons, and was looked upon as an almost impregnahle inu'rier until de- feated at the last election. after which he was appointed to .the Senate. over which allzshades of politics felt they could offer congratulations. Person- ally we always admired the genial Senator and we sincerely sympathize with the bereaved family in their sore. distress. The death of Mr. J. \V. Stone will leave. a big blank in the social life of Hanover. Few men were more retir- ing and unobtrusive and few men had more friends and more respect.

Mr. Mc- Kechnie was the essence of honesty and truthfulness and no man could charge him with the feeblest effort at misrepresentation. With a reputation for truth and honor, his faults and foibles, if he had any, were easily over- looked. Though dead. the name of Neil McKechnie should ever stand out in bold relief on the pages of Dur- ham’s history.

The death of Delbert Moore, the ten 3 ear- -old son of \I r and Mrs. George Home 33 as a sad blow to the fond pa- rents and a shock to the whole can}: munity . As stated last week the-little fellow had been apparently well on Tuesday morning and went to school as usual. During the day he took sick and came home very ill when medical aid was at once summoned. The case was pronounced an obstruction of the bowels. caused by an overlapping or telescoping of the intestines. It was decided to take him to the hospital in Toronto where he;33'ould undergo “an operation. The operation about ten ‘ o’clock on “'ednesday night confirm- ed the diagnosis of our local practiâ€" tioners. but sad to tell the poor boy survived the operation only a fe33' hours and on Thursday night the re- mains were taken to Durham and in- terred Saturday afternoon at Trinity (f-hurcl‘i (.‘emetcry, The following paragraph, which we take the privilege of clipping from the Hanover Post, is well worth re- peating, and we trust it may have the effect of setting some at the trick of thinking whether or not the 100w ends at which they allow their child- ren to run is a good thing for the rising generation. Laxity of parental discipline can- not be overcome by ringing.r a hell or sending a. poliCeman. though no doubt such methods help, in chase of vagrant children. It is not an un- usual thing to see the merest child- ren on the streets at a late hour at] night. and among the group there! are boys who can throw out more profanity in fifteen minutes than ag ~Kentucky Colonel could in aday, and: girls who can flirt. if that word can lill the bill, though in some cases it will have to he very elastic, with de- cidedly too much “finish” for their years. The preper place for children after dark is at home. and the father and mother who subject. them to the dangers that, lurk on the streets after dark and still confidentally expect that they will grow up to noble man- hood and pure womanhood, rest se- renely in homes that will not always be realized. Shocked they would be if the veil that precludes the view of the future were lifted and they be- held their sunny-tempered son or . darling girl a moral wreck or a social ‘ outcast. The boy of fifteen Who i spends his nights on the streets and ~ who can curse Strong enough to make your hair curl and your toes warp is f not likely to become a ” shining light ” of intelligence and intregity. I'l‘he girl who Spends her nights on the streets also and who can show, more “hot air” than the average ballet dancer is not likely to have Very much respect paid her let alone gain the esteem and admiration of 3 those with whom she resides. Boys, when you Speak of your father, don’t call him ‘° the old man” Of course you are older now than when you learned to Call him father. You are much smarter than you were then; you are much more manly look- ing.‘ Your clothes fit better; your hat has a modern shape, and your hair is combed differently. In short you are “ flyer” than youwero then. Your father has a last year’s coat. and a two year’s old hat, and a vesn of still another pattern. He can’t write such an elegant note as you can, and all thatâ€"but don’t call him the “ old man "' Call him father. For years he has been held to the thorny path of industry and the brightest half of his life has gone from him forever. But he loves you though he goes about without say- ing much about it, and. . if he- knew you were bad, it would be the heavi- est burden he has to bear. Fritz. , in Hanover Post. It may be a little too early in the season to ask a young man what he intends to do with his evenings this coming winter. Still it is not too early for him to be thinking about it. The average young man wastes a lot of precious time each winter which could be put to good use. Are you going to kick your heels at'the street corners, or are you going to spend some of your time at least in improv- ing your mind and thus improve your prospects? It is not too soon to answer that question, and each young man and young woman too; must answer it for himself and herself. Fritz, 'in Hanover Post.

Miss King. the organisr and leader of the Mt. Forest Methodist church, is no stranger to a'Duriiain audience. She received an enthusiastic recep- tion. Her merits as a soloist in sac. red music were ampiy evidenced by her rendering of “ Kin: David's ba- ment.” The power and pathos. the touching tenderness of her voice so sweetly and softly modulated in tone showed excellent training and great. ability. The appreciation of the audience was manifested by repeated encores. oThe duet, “A Sinking Ship.” bv Miss King and our young friend, F. Vickers. showed both voices to ad- vantage, and the artistic rendering of the sentiment of the song won well merited applause. The accmnpauists for the evening were Misa King: and Mr. Geo. Wright. The pastor of the church, Wi‘ay R. Smith. presided. The singing of God Save the King: brought to a close the anniversary exercises for the year 1903, the mom successful of an;r annual gathering in the history of the church, both temporally and Spiritually. The members of the Official Board. in behalf of the con- gregation, tendered thanks to all those who in any way helped to min- ister to the success of the efiort. The fraternal and kindlywvords of Revs. Farquharson and Newton, as repre- senting the Presbyterian and Baptist churches in town, were a pleasing manifestation of the kindly feeling existing between the pastors and people of the different churches.
