The congregation con- sists of about sixty families. only one charge, and the contrast between this and the three charges oi Rocky Saugeen, Dor- noch and Williamslord is most marked. We have not heard if Mr Mills has accep- ted. A large cow-breakfast hat, grey flannel smock neatly belted in at the waist, grey riding breeches, canvas leggings and stout boots will be the serviceable and smart costume which National Service girls will wear on the Ontario farms this summer. Each girl will wear on her arm the honor- ed National Service badge, and after two months' service will be the proud posses- sor ot the National Service button. On May Mth, a very successful Red Cross meeting was held at Mrs James Ellison by the Saugeen Workers when 2 day shirts, 2 surgeon robes, 2 suits py. jamas and 6 personal property bags were made. 12 towels and 12 handkerchiels were hemmed and 3 pairs of socks started.

Nine appeals wtre allowed temporarily and 12 were disallowed. Mr A. D. Crea- sor acted as Military representative. A Thrilling Delightful Lecture The town and community are under a debt of gratitude to the I. O. D. E. for bringing Miss Ward here. Her lecture on Thursday evening last in the Town Hall was refreshing all through. Thrilling in spots as she pictured the wounded broken men returning from the trenches, yet showing indomitable resolution to "go on" ; pathetic as she pictured reading the names on the flower decked crosses in cemeteries and most pathetic of all the ages of the boys, 18, 20, 22, 25, all "lying here, silent and still, their work over, just at lite's beginning, dear young lads;" not only thrilling and pathetic, it was inspir- ing and made the blood run quicker, and I through it all ran a current of good humor _ which was as refreshing as think in a l desert. Judge Widditiehl Penis Tribunal Heard More Appeals Miss Ward is physically slight in ap- pearance, and lirst impressions would not lead one to expect the vim and vigor in the address which followed. She has the order-compelling eye of the practised platform orator, and she is not talking two minutes till she has her auditors on the alert and holds them there till the end in pleasureable listening and looking, for she attracts both ear and eye, having a black-board beside her on which she makes sketches, grave and gay, to illus- trate her comments. With two splendidly drawn sketches ol the typical doctor and nurse, (drawn with Bengough celerity.) she dilated on the splendid work done by them, often under difficulties, but always effective. At this point and at several others she expanded on the work of women in the war. "If these hospitals were Heaven these nurses surely were ministering angels." Miss Ward's ability as a chalk artist coupled with her natural vein of humor, were the means of her getting an appointment from a committee whose purpose was the entertaining of our troops on active ser- vice. With charming naivete she related her examination as to fitness before Prin- cess Helena Victoria. President of " Con- certs at the Front," and Miss Lena Ashwell, a brihiant English actress. She "passed , creditably her "comic stunt," A most pathetic picture was that of a hospital full of returned men after eight days in the trenches, all asleep for about two days and a regular concert of snor. ing ! She told with pathos also of the delight of a boy in once morebeing put to bed with a white sheet, after the grime and mud ot the trenches, Young Priceville Lads in trouble Two young boys from Priceville. a Mc- Rae aged about 14 years and McLean, 12 years old, created some excitement in Durham and Holstein on Tuesday. Mc. Rae is from Owen Sound and was visit- ing in Priceville and was the instigator of an alleged burglary at the station there, when 525 was taken we are informed, and other depredations committed. The boys were intending to make for O. bound, and had crawled above the rods under the Superintendent's coach on the G. P. R. ‘ when he noticed them and took them in- side, but it was going to Durham instead. l Constable Adams was thus notified to1 take them in charge here. He had them in custody over Monday night and gave than liberty Tuesday morning to walk wand from street on the solemn prom- is: not to disappear.

With tl Cases I), With which is incorporated the Holstein Leader on foot, having passed through there over an hour before and enquired for the next village, which they learned was Holstein. Mr Adams proceeded at once with his car, traced the delinquents down the 2nd cm. Egremont to Holstein, where he learned they had had dinner shortly be- fore at Geo Calder's. With Mr Calder he struck out towards Mount Forest. and caught up to the lads two miles south of Holstein, where the boys seeing them ap- proach while resting on a bridge, jumped off and hid in an adjoining swamp. Here after some search, Mr Adams found them lying flat amidst a clump of cedars. .con veyed them back to Durham. and had them appear tor trial before Magistrate Calder that evening. McLean has a good character, and as he had been led by his companion and was never previously in trouble, he was released on suspended sentence. The other lad. who it appe.ars, had been previously convicted in Owen Sound, was sent to the shelter there where his disposition will be arranged. Miss Bertha Falkingham. trained nurse ot Halifax, is visiting at her father's, Mr W. L. Falkingham. Though fortunately not in the city at the time of its great disaster, she relates many vivid stories of its results. The Women's Institute will present their play"Pricevilie in 1862" in Priceville orrFriday, May 3lst. under Red Cross auspices. Pleased to have a call from Pte. Wm. Seim, the stalwart son of John Seim, Normanby, home on his last leave and must report on 29th inst. Quite a num- ber of the young men in his district are answering the call, More than 300 farmers met at Malcolm near Chesley on Monday night to hear the reports of their delegates recently sent to Ottawa. After discussing the situation, it was decided to telegraph R. E. Truax. the member for South Bruce, urging him to light against the order in council con- scripting farm labor, and use all influence he cm to have it repealed In the event of his not doing this, he will be asked by the larmers to resign. The message was wired to Ottawa Tresiay. Mr David McKelvey of town received the sad word last week that his brother Wm. J. had died suddenly in Buffalo Deceased was the eldest of five sons of the late Jno McKelvey and his mother is still alive and living with her sons Angus and Dan of New Liskeard. The other broth. er is George of Toronto A sister, Mrs James Hastie. Fort Frances, will also mourn. lie is also survived by his wife and four children, to whom sympathy will be extended in the bereavement. The writer knew him as boy and man nearly all his life. He wasa good citizen, a splendid workman and a good husband and father. Under this heading in Tuesday's casual- I ty lists appears the name of Pte. H. Stanley Willis. of Allan Pare, who was reported ' missing" after the severe battle of Passchendaele on Oct. 26th, and no further word has arrived. It is evident) that search has failed to discover his fate, 1 and that another of Grey's stalwart sons now sleeps in Flanders fteldir. Stanley enlisted " a private in the 147th Greys in the fall of 1915. and advanced in rank to sergeant, in which capacity he was very popular among the men. He reverted in rank to private to go to the front, and was there over a month before the fateful 26th of October, when so many more of his Grey chums fought their last fight But little over two weeks after, his cousin Wm. Willis met death in action. To his bereaved parents, Mr and Mrs Mark Willis, one brother Walter and sisters, l Misses Ethel, Edythe and Hazel, the sin- cere sympathy of town and community is >extend:d in the loss of a gallant con and brother On Saturday morning at 6.30, Mr W. _ H.
