When he pulled up at the main corner under the bright electric lights, a fine young cockerel perched on the front top, stood up, flapped his wings and zgave a clear challenge to the town.

Addresses were then given by Reeve McCuaig, G. M. Leeson, M.P.P., and Chas. Kenneay. Misses Annie Graham and Mary Beaâ€" ton both gave splendid recitations, while violin selections were given by Miss Ada Browne, accompanied by Miss Flora McFarlane.

It was a strenuously fought game throughout, and always close. _ Boothville had defeated the Durham girls in Durham on show day and the latter were anxious to reâ€" trieve their laurels, which they just accomplished. It was a game deâ€" manding the maximum amount of agility, and proved quite interesting to many in the crowd who had never previously witnessed a basketball exâ€" hibition. Durham High School staff and a number of other pupils were in attendance, and the students made their presence audible in rooting and in High School yells. The Women‘s Institute conducted a booth, also a sale of fancy goods, and a minature "Midway", consisting of ‘hitting the cats‘, throwing darts for kewpie dolls, etc., was attractive to the young people. Miss Agnes MacPhail, M. P., was on the grounds, meeting old friends and_neighbors. She was the only politician present. We were informed there are now no fewer than 60 in the pens, young and old, and before long under able manâ€" agement, this ranch will rank among the best in the province. "Priceville, the home of good foxes" was in evidence, for Mr. McGillivray had a pair of slick black beauties, a year and a half old, on exhibition, and they were a centre of attraction. What‘s the matter with the stock classes ? The display this year was quite below Priceville‘s average in quantity. As will be seen, Kinnee and Picken, two Durham horsemen, captured some of the red tickets. The sheep and swine classes had some real good specimens. NOTES Swinton Park Pipe Band were genâ€" erous _ in furnishing _ fine music throughout the afternoon, and a little kilty lassie‘s dancing took the eye. 2 __ * 70°~ n quality and quantity, fruit being abundant. Good judges say the ladies‘ work was excellent, and the culinary display was attracâ€" tive. At each end of the hall were fine art displays, in which the Cairns® of Ceylon, carried off most of the priâ€" zes. Farm and garden roots and veâ€" getables were well represented, and we can‘t help mentioning the spienâ€" did cauliflower of Miss Stothart‘s, than which we have seen nothing to equal it at any time.

Dixon, Juige TORONTO There are many districts contiguâ€" ous to the Canadian National Raiiâ€" ways where the hunter can get his limit bag of game. In the provinces of Ontario and Quebec they are numerous and within a few hours travel of your home. ‘ The excitement of the chase is wonderfully fascinatâ€" ing, and in addition a week or two in the woods furnishes the finest kind of a vacation. Abundance of moose, deer, bear and game birds are to be obtained with a minimum of expense. Apply to nearest Canadian National Grand Trunk Agent for hunâ€" ting literature, or write C. K.

A Hunter‘s Paradise on Canadian National Railway con. 14, could fill Priceville grounds with their Polled Angus herd : John Plester has pigs that excite a crowd twice as much as the midway : Neii McLeod always has some good sheep: Kinnell has horses and hosts of othâ€" ers we might mention in Proton.

Come out rext year with a more genâ€" _erous prize list and a better exhibit. Miss Rachel Ferguson who has been away for four years, waiting on her sister, Mrs. Thos.

Mr. Wm. Knox has some grade Durham cows fit to be seen in any company : the Campbell brothers or to the Fair. Ten, twenty or forty years ago, when less interest was taâ€" ken in the frivolities of life, such as concerts, kewpie dolls, and other midâ€" way attractions, there was a far more instructive and interesting exâ€" hibit in the small shows. There are any amount of good animals through the country, that would do credit to their owners if brought out to the Fair. Well, Mr. Editor, how did you surâ€" vive the World‘s Fair at Priceville ? We believe it was the last fair ot the season, also the last day of fine weather. Most of the Agricultural Societies should be on fair footing this year. _ Could they not do someâ€" thing to encourage interest in t he show of live stock. It is strange that in a locality where live stock is the main source of income for the‘ farmer, if there is none fit to bring STOLENâ€"The party‘s name has been lately secured who stole an overcoat out of a buggy in church shed in Priceville on night of Show.

C. P. Kinnee, Durham, Judge SWINTON PARK SHEEPâ€"OXFORD G. S. Silk, Judge Judge The late Mr. Cochrane was in his 48th year, and had been in the serâ€" vice of the Standard Oil Company in foreign countries since 1906. He went with the Company at Omaha, Nebraska in the year 1893. During the last 15 years he had been in Yoâ€" kohama, Japan. The remains are being forwarded to Sarnia for burial. _ The despatch says : Sad and unexâ€" pected news reached Mrs. J. J. Broaâ€" erick, London Road, Sarnia, about noon Friday last in the form of a tetegram from the offices of the Standard Oil Company, New York, stating that her brother Roderick D. Cochrane, had died suddenly that morning in Yokahama, Japan. The tidings were all the more grievous and sad in view of the fact that Mrs. Broderick had received a cable from her brother on the previous Monday advising that he would sail on Satr urday, Sept. 30th, on the Empress ofr Canada for Sarnia on an extended furlough but death claimed him thel day before. _ The Sarnia Observer last week narrates the death of Roderick D. Cochrane, a native of Durham, and a son of the late Adam and Grace Cochrane of St. Thomas, former resiâ€" dents here. _ Many of the old resiâ€" dents here will remember the famâ€" ily, who were among Durham‘s promâ€" inent citizens over forty years ago. Mrs. S. F. Morlock and Miss Kate Cochrane are cousins of deceased. Death of Roderick Cochrane I THE CONCERT As usual at any High School conâ€" cert, the hall was crowded in the evâ€" ening. The program was given by both schools, Principal Danard actâ€" ing as Chairman. There were many good and varied numbers, all won enâ€" _cores, though the students had little _opportunity for â€" preparation, â€" so quickly was the day arranged. Markâ€" dale girls gave two fine dances, eight in each, one with duett accompaniâ€" ment "In an old fashioned garden being especially popular. The Camâ€" eron children were versatile enterâ€" tainers, and Misses Elsie Boyce and Adeline Graham, Esther McComb and Emily Smith rendered pleasing duets and quartettes Miss Eula Burnett was the accompanist. Harold Mounâ€" tain displayed some wire walking, the Durham Glee Club two choruses and Principals Danard and Morrison presented badges to the day‘s prize winners. God Save the King and the school yell closed a busy day replete with physical activity, entertainment and comaraderie. Heard, who came up from Varsity for the day, took the Sr. with 22 points, and Bill Vollett was second with 14. _ Bill‘s mark of 37 ft. 10 in. for hop, step and jump was a recordâ€" breaker in school sports anywhere. Harold English of Markdale won Jr. boys honors with 16 points, while Clarence Noble followed with 13 and Oscar Moon 10. For the third year we believe Katie Kelsey carried off girls honors with 22 points, though Nellie McGirr with 20 made the race close. We have not yet receivâ€" ed the list of prize winners. Durham total _ 154 Markdale 62 With "Pete" Mountain pitching, Durham made a runaway of the baseâ€" ball match,â€"after seven innings it was 15â€"0. Durham girls were also unbeatable in baseball, and ran up a 43 to 9 score in five innings. Markdale boys captured both Sr. and _Jr._ individual championships. Durham Markets About 70 pupils came with Prinâ€" cipal Morrison from Markdale | and all of Durham‘s 130 odd must have been on the Show Grounds too, where the sports were pulled off. Durham won Sr. and Jr boys and girls events in points, the girls making almost a clean sweep. The figures were : 1 Durham boys Sr. 33 , Markdale zr‘ Durham boys Jr. 35 Markdale 25 Durham boys Jr. 35 Durham girls 86 Nearly opposi tetke Port Ofi : School was contested here on Tuesâ€" day, and keenly too.
