A feature of the evening was the fine music by the choir from Durâ€" ihmu, another was the address by Rev Mi Farqubarson on Buru your own Smoke,." which being _ interpreted means control your own spirit. words, actions. etc. 1t was well received, still another popular feature. from Durham, were the contributions from Mr Drysâ€" dale, who sung two fine solos and was heartily encored. _ Miss Alexander, a ycung Toronto artist, sang and recited pleasantly and in time will make her work. She was at her best :perhaps in * The glories of the Highland Brigade. " The contributions by the young people showed careful training and aptness on their part beyond their years. The debate on the merits of " a clean but cross wife " and "a diry but goodâ€" natured one " was thoroughly enjoyed. The club swinging, scarf and military drills were also stirring features showâ€" ing at once, good time and skill and a useful training.

During ail that time you have been faithful in attendance earnest in teaching, diligent in ruling, and fervent ia spirit. Your work has been done in the midst of a busy and exacting life and many an honr has been given to the toil of the school tnat might reaâ€" sonably have been claimed as nature‘s due for rest and refreshment. For all this work you hava neither received nor expected any fee or reward. possibly have never in any formal way received even the thanks of the school. The noblerreâ€" ward of being a helper of many you have honorâ€" ably won, and scattered over this and ‘other lands are many who remember your efforts only the more lovinfly as the lapse of time gives a truer sense of their worth. We now desire to voice the appreciation, not only of all at present on the roll but also of those scattered up and down the world who have not forgotten you though they may selâ€" dom have told you of the debt they owe, Mr Archie McDougall is expected home from Collingwood on Saturday.

Glenelg, A very Clever piece. "The Phantom Doughnuts " showed the worries caused a housekeeker by frivolous callers, The acting was good ; another leading piece was * The Cnristmas Conspiracy ‘ where the ‘Sandman‘ with a can of * Dream Dust‘ put the parents to sleep instead of the children who expressed their deâ€" light at being allowed to stay up to see Santa Claus by literally, bounding joy. The snow flake piece was perhaps the favorite of the eyvening. It wasza very pleasing entertainment and reflects credit on Misses Margaret Hunter and Margaret Gun, on whom fell the weight of preparation.

Some harsh words, uttered by Mr. Ludiow towards Mr Irwin in the hearâ€" ing of his son brought upon the rash chemist a blow he will not soon forget.

Mr Ratz, oneof the Directors, is in town, and will likely gccompany the expert and in due time we will get the report.

Insp. Campbell was in the chair and in addition to contributions by the children addresses were given by Messrs Alex Firth, lately teacher there, Wim. Irwin and Geo,. Binuie. Proceeds aâ€" mounted to $29.00. Little has been doing during the week except that certain strange and mysterâ€" jous trips were made to Shallow Lake by Secy Ehrhardt and Chemist Ludlow, the latter a few days after the former. The purpose of these trips was no doubt to interview Mr Woods, the independent expert both parties have agreed upon to make the investigation. _ Just why it was necessary to make these trips may yet be made clear, but under the cirecumâ€" stances people will be suspicious. A letter containing some pointed sugâ€" gestions on the cement question from Mr R. Legate, Greenside, is unavoidably held over till next week., Other matter we regret bas to share the same fate, Christmas work and matter has to take first place.
