Rink Opened On Tuesday. Tuesday night of this week saw the Durham Rink Opened for the season and a large crowd availed themselves of the first opportunity to spend the evening on the ice. The ice this year was pronounced the best over yet seen on a Durham rink for the Opening night. The old price of 15 cents for adults and 10 cents. for children under 12 is again in; vogue, and with the big Mam\ ct supplying constant music during the whole evening the Rink this winter promises to be the big attraction on tiaptain \. \.

Last week we told Of the call re- ceived from Brantferd by the Rev. F. G. Hardy, Rector of Trinity Church here for the past four years, and intimated that he was likely to accept the call. . When our last. issue came off the press. Mr. Hardy had not then decided as to what. he would do. but has since decided to accept the call and will preach his farewell sermon on January 21.

From the. present. outlook, Durham will have two hockey teams this winter, holh junior. At the last minute the locals, we understand, wnt clown their entrance fee and entered a team in the (Z).H.A. High school hockey will also he run, too, if the contemmlated arrangements ran he made, So far as we learn, it is proposed to have a district com- prisml oi' Sholhurne, Dundalk, Mark- dale and Durham High schools, with any others. that. will come in. These ;n'rangoment.s, however. are not com- iiii-lod and it is impossible to predict what will turn up. Intermediate or; sehior hockey this year is absolutelyi out it the question. This, however, will not hinder the rink company from getting in other attractions and plans are already being laid for a good measure of amusement this winter at Durhami’s ice palace.

In Glenolg, Mr. Thomas 'l‘urnhull, who has been a momhoi' of tho ('llonelg Council for a number of years, will oppose M 1'. Motluaig this year for tho Reeves-hip. We learn that Egremont is likoly to haw, an vloction. and if rumors that Doputy-Roow Filsingm‘ intends to try l'oxgtho Roowship of Normanhy are true, that township will [at :u have a light. 'l‘horo are some Bent- invk I'atmiayoi‘s who aro in favor of an oloction this war. but it is liko-. ly that the- old Council will get an acclamation, though not. at all cor- lain. So far as Durham is concomâ€" ml, nothing (lotinito will ho known until to-morrow night. The Township Elections. The employees of the Durham Furniture Company are again being made the recipients of substantial Christmas» remembrances, the form this year being like last, a goose for each married employee and suitable gifts of a different nature for the single men and lady workers. This bend of friendship between employ- er and employee is to be commended and in a measure possibly explains why the local company is able to keep" running when the furniture business is somewhat slack in other places. This fall the Durham Fur- niture Company has been kept very busy and still the orders roll in, and from the present outlook this winter will be a busy one at the local fac-i tory. 3 The Royal Bank at Mount Forest was broken into and robbed on Fri- day morning by what is believed to have been profess'onal yeggs, who got away with the contents of 18 safety deposit boxes containing mostly registered Victory Bonds, 53 Wills and 23 cents cash from the stamp box. The vault door was blown off, but the time lock was ev- idently too much, or the burglars got scared and decamped without try- ing for any of the bank’s money. That the bandits knew how to work is shown by the manner)n which the telephone and telegraph wires had been cut, otl‘eetively isolating Mount Forest from the rest of the world. So far, no clue has been secured, but the Provincial police are working on the,case. Christmas Greetings for Employees. Mount forest Bank Robbed.
