Miss May Muir, who has been teaching the past year at Peterborâ€" ough, arrived on Saturday to spend her vacation at the Six Corners. The pulpit of the Presbyterian Ch. here and at Swinton Park was filled by Rev. Mr. Carswell of Toronto on Sunday. â€"Mr and Mrs. C. G. Watson of Lonâ€" don, are visiting Mrs McKinnon and Miss Christena of the South Line. The play "The new minister" put on here on Friday night, by the S. Park young people, was quite a sucâ€" cess. About twenty five took part in it and the different characters were well taken. Much advice was handâ€" ed out to the new minister by the ditâ€" ferent organizations and it looked as though (like most ministers) he would have a mighty hard time of it to please everybody and at the same time please himself. We do not care to individualize, as all were good in their parts, but might mention Wm. Watson as "Uncle Alex., the old Sexâ€" ton," as being particularly good. He sure could shovel in the coal. Proâ€" ceeds amounted to $48.00. Mr and Mrs. D. McDougall spent Sunday with the former‘s sister, Mrs 8. J. Bowles of Vandeleur.

In giving a retrospecâ€" tive view of the many changes that have intervened in that time, we find the change of our present existence | to be the greatest of them all. Then ‘like the words of the good Psaimist, we may say then we were young. | And now the passing of the many years makes us feel to surrender by feeling the weight of the many years gone by bearing down on us fast. We don‘t wish the Editor any harm when we say (and probably truly) that he will have to before a great many years, lay down his weapon of â€"performing the faithful duties entrustâ€" ed to him in the many years that have passed since he became Editor | of the Grey Review, as it was called in olden times. !_ In passing up and down the many lines and roads in the old Township of Glenelg, we find hardly any of the aged veterans that entered the woods when only inhabited by wild animals of different kinds. Could the aged beteran trace his footprints to 60 or 70 years ago, when the oldest part of the municipality was all a wilderness, he would see queer sights. We imagâ€" ine we see the first settler winding his way up to what is now Edge Hill. We are told it was the late Jas Edge who entered the Edge Hill line about 79 years ago. Mr. Edge became a faâ€" miliar figure in the Township in after years. Here he hewed out a home in . the forest which is now the garden | part of Glenelg by fields covered ‘ with an abundance of crop and sowed ‘ by the owners, Messrs Wm. Edge & Son. The oldest person on the Edg»e | Hil lHine now is probably Mr Donald McKechnie, north of Glenroadin, Only a limited supply, regular price 35¢, rush .22 Reg price, $1.00 a can Sale Price........

What changes during the next two score and half years will be hard to tell. But one thing sure is that those who passed the allotted time, be they ediâ€" tors or correspondents, will we hope occupy a higher position in the home beyond where it is not necessary for the correspondents to ask the Editor to correct mistakes, for they are corâ€" rected by the Great Corrector already.

So there are alâ€" ways changes of a different nature. A young lad was looking for work some 60 or more years ago from the Township of Glenelg. He came to the residence of an old highlander in the Township of York and asked the old crust if he wanted a man. "Is it lookâ€" ing for work you are my boy ?" said the close fisted farmer. "Yes" reâ€" plied the boy. "Where are you from?" "From the County of Grey" was the reply. *"What part of the County of Grey are you from?"‘ From the Tp. of Glenelg" said the young man. In his own language he said : "Agus an ne sin Gleneilg nan clach," or is that stony Glenelg ?" If Glenelg was notâ€" ed for stones in olden times this hard hearted old sinner was as hard as the nether mill stone for he never asked the poor boy to come into his house and have some dinner as it was that time. Not so with the residents of Glenelg, for we might vouch that there is not one farmer in Glenelg but would ask a poor boy to come in and have something to eat. We attended service in the Presâ€" byterian church, Durham, yesterday, and was highly pleased to hear a good sermon from the pastor, Rev. Smith. We haven‘t attended any of the picâ€" niecs held lately but we take it for granted that they had all good times. This Monday, the 9th July, is kind of gloomy and we may have another shower before night. Some intend to start haying but is as well standâ€" ing until the weather settles. We see its only in the first blossom. In the ages gone past the mowers would be preparing their old mowers, the scyâ€" thes, to be ready to start their hard work about the 12th â€"or the 13th we should say for the 12th was generally observed in a different manner. Some of the old grinders of long ago used to say that a man that would not mow two acres a day wasn‘t worth feeding him and only giving him 50¢ a day. But we may say "Honi soit qua maly pangs," or "evil be to him that evil thinks" or "gu ma h ole dhasan a smuanteachaich an tolc." But we are not geing to say that all those hard tizers who only fed their hired men on stale bread and butter, which would not stand the test toâ€"day but would be used as axle grease, were evil thinkers. Nowadays the hired man is used with the best produced from the farm. â€" away time are now the aged residents of that fine part of the County of Grey which has become in many instances the garden of Ontario. If al lis well we intend to take in the Garden Party at Priceville on the 17th July. We are sorry to hear of the death of Thos. Fisher whose funeral took place on Saturday, the 7th, to the old cemetery in Priceville, where his wite is buried some 17 years ago. He was ailing for some time but death was not expected so soon. More particuâ€" lars may be had from Priceville. Mr and Mrs. Hugh McPhail and family paid the McDonald family a visit lately at Edge Hill. They were driven by Thos. Campbell in his car. Our curiosity was aroused by seeing the relics of the olden times in a fence corner, being that of the snath â€"and blade of an old muley cradle, now probably some 70 years old. _ If thai old implement of the past could tell a tale it would be interesting to the younger generation of nowadays. If they were asked to use one of the kind and cut from 3 to 5 acres amongst stumps and stones, as the old relic did by the early settler at Edge Hill what would happen. An old highlander was telling a story of how he used to cradle when down at the harvest in the old settleâ€" ment. He said he downed with a big tumbler of whiskey and would go around a 10 acre field, then stop and have another glass. _ So it paid the farmer to give the good cradler a horn at every round, for whiskey was only 50c a gallon. Messrs Charles and Neil McFarlane and Miss Flora, visited the first of the week with Mr and Mrs Fndlay Mcâ€" Cuaig at Mulock. Mr and Mrs A. B. McArthur and Mr and Mrs J. A. Browne and daughter Miss Ado, motored to Leith on Thursâ€" day and spent the day with friends there. Haying is the order of the day in this locality and every body will be pretty busy now for awhile. Mr. Chas. Kennedy motored to London Saturday morning and spent the week end with frends. _Mr and Mrs Cunningham Moore vsted Sunday with Mr and Mrs Hornâ€" sby of Egremont. es a Mrs. Chas.

To the Editor of the Durham Review, Dear Sir :â€" i I find it necessary to contradict a statement that has been circulated broadcast in the neighborhood of Swinton Park and Hopeville to the effect that I have been receiving a Mothers‘ Allowance. Whether this story has been started for election purposes or not, I cannrot say but it is absolutely false, as I never applied for the allowance. Mrs. Alex. McEachnie, . R. R. No. 1, Hopevilie I certify that Mrs McEachnie is not in receipt of a Mothers‘ Allowance and that she never applied for one. Mrs. Wm.
