The Hanover chariot struck and tore of the running board and back fender of the Walkerton bus, and in doing so swung into the ditch, where it turned turtle after ripping off the {ront wheels and breaking the axle, besides bad‘y damaging the hovd and other parts of the car. The occupants of the Hanover roadship were slightly shaken up, but otherwis> escaped unhurt.

Reeve Calder Secures Grant for Durham Hospital Walkerton‘s lacrosse team came to Durham last Friday for the return exâ€" hibition match with the Bluebirds and were vanquished 12 to 2. The visitors make no pretence of being a formidable team, as Walkerton is a baseball town, and they did not enter lacrosse circles this season. Theclass of lacrosse Durâ€" ham‘s homeâ€"brew team is putting up, was demonstrated by their one s‘ded victories in both games with Walkerton, who have several old players in their line up. The Blueâ€"birds bave a bye till the semiâ€"finals, and then they promise any district winner a real argument. 46 EntrRaNCE CanDpioatEs.â€"There are 20 Durbam pupils and 26 from the surrounding country writing on the Entrance examinations here this week.

Mr Cole being the officâ€" iating clergyman. The bride was given away by her uncle. and to the strains of the wedding march plaved by Mrs Cole ‘the vows were taken that made them | man and wife. _ Heurty and warm conâ€" | gratu‘ations followed, and shortly after | the company sat down to a sumptuous |repast, the table being graced by an handsome bridescake, the work of the \ bride‘s mother. A musical evening followed and goodâ€" will and happiness prevailed and the separations took placewith abundance of good wishes for the future welfare of Mr and Mrs Philip A. Harrison _ The Review joins in the congratulations. The groom‘sgift to the bride was a string of pearls. to the flower girl a bead necklace, and many other gifts spoke goodwill and respect to the young couple., Her cousin Marjory Nelson was a charming flower girl, dressed in white organdy with satin trimming. . She carried a basket of roses and orange blossoms, which also contained the ring. The bride looked attractive attired in white satin with overdress of georgette, trimmed with crystals.

Forest "Lornes" Wednesday evening when they took the best end of a 14 â€" 2 score. After last night‘s exhibition, it may have been well for the group in which Mt. Forest play lacrosse, that they reâ€" fused our team. Neither team seemed to be playing their best and men were not covered as they should be. Blueâ€" birds missed many chances to score and the play in the main was centred more around the "Lornes" net. The Scoring by 5 periods was 4â€"0, 3â€"1, 3â€"1, 2â€"0, 5â€"1. Geo. Hughill refereed the game. Lineups as follows : Durbiamâ€" goal, W. Snell ; point,B. McDonald :C point,E. Elvidge :‘ Defence, H. Kress and W. Vollett : Centre, S. Rowe : Forwards, C. Buschlen and C. McGirr Outside Home, R.Mitchell : Subs,H. Rowe and R. Burnett. At the Sunday evening service in the Baptist Church, Rev. Mr. Cameron spoke on "Queen Esther‘s call to serâ€" vice," emphasizing the fact that every person has a definite call to service Mr. Cameron urged every one to be ready totake a daring stand for the benetit of some one else even at great risk to themselves. The final disciosâ€" ure of life‘s transactions may reveal an atonishingly great victory. "Who knoweth but thou art come to the kingdom for such a time as this." The next meeting will be held in Mt Forest in September. The committee on Presbyterial visâ€" itation was instructed to visit those congregations not yet paying the new minimum stipend and confer with them. | _A call from Toronto to Rev. W. J. ‘ Richardson of Arthur was then dealt with. Representatives from Arthur and Gordonville spoke of the fine work done by their pastor, of the new _church built, membership increased _and superior sermons. Mr. Richardson referred to the length of the pastorate nearly 15 years, and the difficulty of deciding, but finally said he would acâ€" cept the call. Rev. J. A McLean of Conn was appointed interim Moderaâ€" tor with instructions to declare the pulpit vacant on July 23rd. ‘ Rev. F. 8. Milliken then presented a call from Palmerston to Rev. C. V.

The Presbyâ€"| tery sanctioned the call and ordered it; to be sent to Rev, Mr. McLean. Proâ€"| visional arrangements were made for | induction on Aug. ist, Messrs Mitchâ€"| ell, MeLean, Gallagher and Milliken toj conduct the service. | The business of the Presbytery was largely routine. _ The members who had been at the Assembly gave reports dealing with the matters there discussed and impressions reâ€" ceived. There was alarge attendance, over 60 being present, and while the Presâ€" bytery was acting business, the ladâ€" ies had a delightful social gathering. A bountiful luncheon was served at noon.
