Lane THE DURHAM REVIEW Miss Catharine Sim pagsed into the Great Beyond last Wednesday mornâ€" ing, Aug. 15th, at the home of her niece, Mrs. A. Haas, with whom she lived the past six years. Although ailing for a long time, she was apparâ€" ently no worse that morning, eating her breakfast as usual. But shortly after when her niece went into the room, her spirit had fledâ€"so suddenâ€" ly had the call come to cross the Borâ€" der into Life Eternal. She was born in Forfarshire, Scotland, Oct. 29, 1843 and with her parents, three sisters anda brother, came to Canada 66 yrs ago in a sailing vessel being six weeks on the ocean. Her brothers, Robert, David and James, were here several years before, so they came directly to lot 3, con. 14, Egremont, where, with the exception of a few months, she remained and where she died. She was the youngest of a large famâ€" ily, all of whom predeceased her ex-‘ cept one sister, Mrg Sheriffs, now in California. _ She kept house for her brothers, Andrew and James until their deathâ€"later selling the farm to A. Haas. She was one of our sturdy, hard working pioneers of whom so few are left, very fond of books and flowâ€" ers, of a kindly disposition, loved by her nephews and nieces and respectâ€" ed by all who knew her. She was a staunch Presbyterian and at the funâ€" eral service on Friday, her pastor Rev. Mr. Scott spoke appropriately from the text 1 Thess. 4:13. The pall bearers were Robt Christie, Wm. Sim, Robt. Sim, Alfred Haas, Geo. Calder and Wm. Clark, who tenderly carried her to rest beside many of her loved ones in Reid‘s cemetery. Mr. Robt. Cowan and daughter from near Harriston, spent a day with his relatives here last week. The harvest will soon be a thing of the past. Nearly all the grain is cut and a lot in the barns. The hum of the threshing machine will be the next in order. There will be plenty of strev and we hope a good yield of Messrs Murray and Roy McKenzie were among the party that went west On the Harvesters‘ Excursion last Wednesday.

H. Lind. She found the trip very delightful, going as one of a conâ€" ducted party of twenty. Large Crowds on Sunday and Monday to Hear Former Pastor After an absence of nine years ul pastor, Knox Church, Normanby, enâ€" joyed having with them for their anâ€" niversary Sunday and Monday last, Rev. Geo. Kendell of Dundalk. The weather was ideal and large congreâ€" gations greeted him at both services. At the morning service before his sermon, he made kindly and sympaâ€" thetic reference to the changes he obâ€" served. He missed Wm. Allan, Jas. Mclivride, Mrs. Jas Watson, Mrs. Wilâ€" ton, Mrs. Jas. Marshall, Miss Margarâ€" et Marshall, Louis Kellar, Alex Smith and many others, and without doubt his auditors mentally filled in his own loss in the death of Mrs. Kendell. Miss Nina Scott of the Toronto Road, a student at Flesherton High School, is at present on a visit to he! sister, Mrs. Frank Scott. Mr. and Mrs. Jas. H. Coleridge and daughter Jean of Toronto, returned to their home the beginning of the week. Mr. John Smail, elder son of the late Charles Smail, is laid up with a severe attack of typhoid fever. Mrs. Woodward and her two daughâ€" ters, after spending a couple of week‘s holidays at the home of their uncle and aunt, Mr and Mrs,. Austin Hann, returned to Toronto Sunday last by motor. At the Parsonage, Prireville on Wednesday evening last, by Rev. Mr. Curran, there wags married Miss Allie Harrison to Mr _ Wesley Heard of Swinton Park. A reception was held in the evening at the home of her brother, Mr. Crawford Harrison, when only immediate relatives were present. His topic was founded on Philip pians 3 : 13, "This one thing I do, forâ€" getting those things which were beâ€" hind and reaching forth, &¢" and he lucidlypictured the great +Apostle‘s condition, now old, a stranger, an exâ€" ile, but here was his plan of life, an example worthy to follow, for God exâ€" pects every man and woman to make the most of their lives.. The world should be better because we have lived in it. Under the three divisions Paul emphasizes: Past, Present and Future life, he wove a suggestive discourse. Too many people, he said, grovel in their past. We should cultivate the art of forgetting.and rid ourselves of the burdens of the past : "The man glorying in the past, is stamping himself as a failure..‘ Respect it, but do not be a slave to it." He drew picâ€" tures of the soâ€"called "good" old times to which few would like to return. "Don‘t be always looking for a soft job," he said, in dealing with the Presâ€" ent, the day‘s work is calling for you and activity in usefulness is better than medicine. ‘The motto should pe "Do something for somebody quick." Your loved one is not dead.‘ We loved him, we loved him; But Jesus loved him more; And He has taken him to rest To yonder Heavenly home. A voice we loved is stilled; A place is vacant in the home, Which never can be filled. Days of sadness still come o‘er us; Tears of sorrow often flow; Memory keeps our grandpa near us, Whom God called one year ago. God knows how much we miss him: God knows the tears we shed, But whispers ‘hush! he only sleepsâ€" The booth on the grounds did a good business and the total gross proceeds of the anniversary gatherings will be well over $100. In loving memory of Mr. John Me Donald, who departed this life, Aug. 14th, 1922. Dromore, Ont. A precious one from us has gone, "I press toward the mark for the prize" said â€" Paul. He had Vision, kept his eye on the goal, that goal for the christian being Jesus Christ. He objected to the sentiment in Newâ€" man‘s hymn "I do not ask to see the distant scene" and he dwelt on the value of the forward look. He sumâ€" med upâ€"Forget the past : do someâ€" thingâ€"Keep your eye on the distant scene. The garden party on Monday was the largest attended ever on the school grounds, the gate receipts being $65. The night was milder than preceding ones, but a breeze then prevalent, made singing and elocutionâ€" ary work very difficult in the open air. Rain threatened all evenng, but held off well, only a slight sprinkle coming on two occasions. _ Rev. Mr. Kendell remained over till Monday night, to enjoy a social visit among his former members and outside of the pastor chairman, Rev. W. J. Burnett, was the only speaker of the evening. Relating a few stories in opening, his address was both entertaming and inâ€" structive as he impressod upon the gathering the three fundamentals of prosperityâ€"integrity, faith and reâ€" sponsibility. _ Quite a number heard Mr E. D. McClocklin, Durham, jor the first time, whose several readings and recitations delighted all. The moâ€" gram was entirely contributed by outâ€" side talent. On the musical side, Mr. Wm. Ramage and son Reggie, Misses Grace Ramage and Nellie Bunston, all of Dromore choir, rendered two fine quartettes, Misses Jeanette and Florence Kerr, Varney, a pleasing duett : Misses Winnie Blyth and Katâ€" ie Kerr, Varney, and Mr P. Ramage, Durham solos Some popular numbers were violin instrumentals by Miss Ada Browne, Bunessan, accompanied by Miss Margaret Petty, to which they were forced to respond. The evening service was thronged to the doors, with some unable to gain admittance. _ Many from neighâ€" boring congregations almost filled the church alone, a tribute to the place held by Mr. Kendell, in the hearts of his former community. â€"Grandchildren, Anna and Tena NORTH EGREMONT TORONTO IN MEMORIAM Through pressure of work and lack of time, our correspondence has some what lagged and our pen grown rusty. To our mind this has been an exeeed-i ingly rushed season,â€"possibly an °Xâ€" ample will suffice: a few acres of Barley which was sown the last day of May, was cut on the 15th of Aug: uest. It was about as good a crop for bulk, at least as we ever cut But rip ened too quickly. ME ECE NERERCCTE C In the removal by death of the late W. E. McAlister on Friday last, the community has lost another of . its elderly and highly respected citizens. Mr. McAlister was a well read and inâ€" telligent old gentleman and his smilâ€" ing and cheerful manner will be misâ€" seéd by all. We extend our sympathy to the bereaved family. Knox Church has passed another milestone in its history when on Sunâ€" day last 19th inst. very successful anâ€" niversary services were conducted by Rev. Geo. Kendell of Dundalk, but formerly a respected pastor of this community. Large crowds were presâ€" ent at both services morning and evâ€" ening, particularly the latter when the church was taxed to its utmost capaeity and could not all get in. The garden party held in the public school grounds Monday evening, was also a splendid success ,the best for crowd and program in its history. We feel it scarcely necessary to go into detail to give the many and varied numbers ag we noticed Peter Ramage of the Review and also Mr Frank Irwin of the Chronicle in atterdance and will give the write up better justice than Misses Florence Mcllvride and Elsie Petty are two of the lucky few to pass their 3rd form examinations and have made application for Normal. Both lassies are worthy of a bit of praise as neither one have missed an exam. since leaving the public school.
