S. concert was held Thursâ€" daygxight which was an ideal evening The crowd was large. Tea was serve ed between 7 and 8. After that Superintendant Allan took the chair and began the prom‘amme by giving an account of the standing of the school. The first speaker was Rev. Truax. His advice was to keep both eyes open for opportunities and make the best use. of them before they flew away. He was in a happy mood and told some good stories. ‘ ‘UOI‘ ‘vaâ€" â€"__ . The Rev. Mr, Bell made his first ; appearance in this place and he adâ€" ? vocated socibility ainongt the people, ; and told of n time when through anxiety and worry he grew to look ‘ more like a bean pole then a Bell and how he got a new start in life by ‘ laughing at his brothea-in-law falling : off a. log into the river while fishing 3 and at thought of it yet he could lay ' on something less than 100 le' Dr. Brown sang so sweetly, that it} caused Rev.

He of course had to reSpond to encores over and over again. The Misses A. and V. Cornish were just as popular asever with the audience in their recitations, and Mr. { Wm. Lawrence impressed the crowd with his first appearance in a recita- l tion. The school under the training . of the theacher gave a good per- i formance in singing reciting and '; dialogues. The drill prepared for the i show was reproduced with the ad- }dition of music which so added to its 1 attractions. that many thought it : would have taken first place had it 1 accompanied it at the fair.

DURHAM. 061'. 28. 1903-. 10 to to to 10 QU‘HIOIO The ancient hills that slopes one to the east and one to the west and on whose top our school building is erected are situated one and one fourth miles from the gravel road S. D. R. Glenelg. Fifty years ago the side road No 40, that leads to this place was not opened and a path way through the woods in the most con- venient places that could be survey- ed by the first settlers in the newly settled country was the only leading road to the south line. Phe first settlers that landed east of this place were the late Neil Mc- Cannel, who came in about 53 years ago pitching his tent in a solitary wilderness to hew out a home etc. Mr. Isaac HOOper. father of all the HOOpers in this place came in also about the same year as Mr. McCan- nel. Samuel Chesler, was another pioneer. Then we'will come back again to the late Mr. Finlay McCuaig whose son Archie is now an exten- sive farmer of some 3 or four hun- dred acres of land. The lot from which the place founded its. name. Was owned by 311' George Tucker, originally. All the old residents have passed away with we exception of Mrs. Jas. McDonald. Mrs. Rev. McIntyre, and I'IECE-Or Moliinnon who took up his residence in Priceville years ago. Our old cuduroy roads are now! chiefly replaced by gravel ones. Buck add the jumper are replaced by top buggies and gay drivers. The old fashioned. tire-places where our dear old mothers cooked the family meals on the old fashioned frying pan,‘ held to the fire, havlng giving place to grand cooking stoves. The old 10;; school houses that serVed their day are now replaced by fine brick or stone. The old teachers are sleeping in our several churchyards. and the small, boys and girls that attended school then are now aged men and women, some struggling hard to face the diificulties of life while others lare prosperous on life’s journey etc. The old fashioned reaping hook and ' cradle are now replaced by binders. The old fashioned way of threshing by flail, and later on by Open cylin- der and oxen are a thing to be more imagined then real to the youngsters, of today, when nothing but steam power is used in all directions in threshing our grain. The ancient stone mill cannot be found and now while our digestive organs tell us it is harder for them to do their duty now-a-days then it was when stone flour was in use etc. We find that there is a change to everything ex- cepting bachelors and they are the unchanged and are the same now as in days of yore.
