FAREWELL PRESENTATION.- Before their removal to Durham, Mr. and Mrs John Collier, Edge Hill, were most kindly remembered by their neighbors on Tuesday evening. About sixty gath- ered at their home and spent a happy social time with them, the chief function being the presentation to them of an up- holstered rocker and arm chair, a parlor1 table. a jardiniere and a jardiniere stand, l Messrs Thos Ritchie and John D. Me) Fayden presented the furniture, while an accompanying address signed on behalf of the neighborhood and appreciative of the :worth of the recipients as residents, was read by Miss Kate McFayden. Mr. Collier appropriately replied, warmly thanking all for their kindness. Games and dancing' pleasantly p.assed the bal- ance of the evening.

Pinkerton and Pique: Durham Grand Trunk station last Sat- urday nihht was jammed to discomfort with crowds waiting to welcome Lieut. Alex Bell who saw some very strenu ms work in his three years of warfare. As it happened the welcome was shared by Ptes Pinkerton and Piquet. who wereonthe same train, and all were heartily applaud- ed. As a private Alex Bell enlisted with the 76th battalion in Toronto in July 1916 with his cousin Ernest McGirr, so they are among the veteran soldiers of this dis- trict. The boys trained that fall and winter at Niagara ard Barrie went to England in April 1916. and together to France in October 1916, where they were placed in the 49th batt. Alex. apparent: ly bore a charmed life in the ba tlefieids, as he came through Vimy Ridge, Hill 70, Paschendaele, Amiens and other Canadi- an engagements, was never wounded, nor was he off an hour through illness. His work earned him promotion to Lee, Corporal. Sergeant, and in August last he was sent to England to take out his lieu- tenant's commission. which he completed after the armistice was signed. As a clmax to his splendid military career, he was last fall awarded the Mili- tary Medal for his work in the Canadian drive last August. Pte. Alfred J. Planet, though yet a boy l in years. is one at the veterans ouhe war. l He used to reside here when a little fellow l, but the family moved West, and he .enlist- ed as a bugler in Regina in April 1915 when but 16 years old. He went over- seas in October and we at the front in February 191.5. He was twice wounded forst in the face and again on August flth last year, when in the infantry the lirst day of the great Canadian .drive, he was injured in hand and head. He has since l been in hospitals and convalescent camps and still carries shrapnel in the head. He goes to Toronto Jan. 31st for his dis- charge. Mother and sister here wicked on has arrival, and hope to welcome his father Sergt. A. F Piquet, who wasa prisoner ofwar, home also, almost any day now. Pte. John Pinkerton who returned Sat. urday evening enlisted nearly three years ago in the 160th Bruce battalion. but did not get to France until last spring. Pte. Stewart Grant, of Varney. arrived home last Friday, having received his dis- charge from the American army. Stewart enlisted in Detroit about l8 months ago, asa private in the mounted police, and was later a sergeant in the Ordinance Corps. He has been at training at a number of U. S camps, and was discharg- ed on Jan 14th. He purposes taking up a Business College course. Cadet Gordon Gun who has been in the Royal Air Force in England latterly. ar- rived at his home in Newmarket on Jan. t3th, where his father, Dr. A.. Gun is Supt. of the Military Hospital. Gordon enlisted in the 71st batt. in October 1915 trained at Galt, and in England h‘s father then at Orpington Hospital, had him transferred to that staff as an ambulance driver. He transferred from this to enter training as an aviator a few months ago. Owen Sound Wants At a combined meeting of town coun- cil, Soldiers' Aid Commissién and Vet- erans' Ass'n in Owen Sound Monday. it was proposed to erect a club house in o, Bound, as a memorial to those who have fallen The building is to provide more ation rooms, baths, etc. for the returned mem Also a museum of war relics. and incidentahy a hall that, would beavail- able for public meetings and concerts. The possible cost" was placed at $100,000 and the Ccunty would be asked to join and pay half, the town paying the other half and the maintenance. Such if built would undoubtedly be an ideal memorial but from this end it looks to be too much of a good thing to ask the whole Cour. y of Grey to pay half the cost of a concert hatltreneficial to Owen Sound and a building for re. turned soldiers which can be used only by thou residing in Owen Sound.

Davidson have had an anxious week, owing to him being stricken with paralysis on Wed- nesday last, He has had periods of im. provement that promieed bettemess, but he is still in a very critical state. His son Archie is home from Port McNicoll. We hope their anxiety will soon be re- lieved and the genial Cierk of Div. Court restored to his usual halth. SILVER MINI; IN Owen Sousa-A real silver mine that paid better than many in Cobalt was discovered a law days ago in McClean's grocery store, 0. Sound. Their big cash register refused to closecompletely. and it was thought‘ some part was broken. On taking out} the drawer. at the back was found 21 collection ot silver coins amounting to 8437 25, certainly a prize windfall as the firm were unaware of its existence. A couple of small cracks were discovered in the rear partitions of the drawer through which quarters and half dollars had been slipping away for years back, and though the till was often short, no blame was attached to the clerks, and it was con- 5 dered mistakes had been made in mak- ing change. Other merchants in the town overhauled their TS, istere on hear- ing of this eilver mi te','t,",'t' met with no similar success. Reception Committee Needed Among the appointments to Municipal i offices we suggest there is room for a ' Sol- 1 d ers' Reception Committee.' Soldiers 1 will be returning at intervals for months yet and the appointment should be made at once. The possibility of them stepping from the train without recognition is mo t repugnant. We cheered them when they went away .' there is equal or more reas- on that we should mark their victorious homecoming. It would be impossible to have the band out on every occasion but we think that a stated gathering in Town Hall, say once a month is desirable to welcome all who have come home in the month previous. Were we sure oi all being on hand when the last man arrives. that would be a good time to celebrate but the chances are many wou d be absent. Meanwhile the Reception Committee should take shape, and Mayor McKech- nie would be justified in making the ap- pointment at once. South Grey Ag, Society Out For New Members The Annual meeting of the Agricultural I Society was held in the Town Hall here on Saturday last, To boost the member ', ship it was arranged to hold a contest.
