Men‘s Class When the "Great Physician" was on earth there was continued appeal to Him from the sick and He worked long, hard and successfully to restore health to all. "Public Health" was one great consideration with Him and ought to be also for His church and people. It requires knowledge and coâ€"operation of the â€" individual, the community and government, the medâ€" ical and nu"sing professions. How shall they work together for the best advantage ? What about a school nurse or community nurse for Durâ€" ham and district ? What more can be done to prevent disease and lengthen life ? You are surely interested in this vital question so come to the class next Sunday afternoon at 2.30. Bring someone with you. Some of the farmers of West Bruce have very progressive ideas apparâ€" ently. The South Line correspondent to the Kincardine Review writes that Samuel Hildred says there is little use of owning an auto unless you keep your foot on the gas and make use of the machine. Having become Let your Car do your work an expert wheelsman he now takes the chariot to the wood lot when he goes to milk the cows. Bossie too, is becoming so accustomed to the pracâ€" tice tha: when the bus arrives she walks up beside the running board, places her left foot forward and conâ€" tentedly chews her cud while hor owner extracts the white fluid. Not altogether content with this either, he intends making further progress by placing a cream separator and churn in the rear of the car and some evening come home and surprise his wife by walking in with a ten pound roll of butter and a crock of butterâ€" milk with beads on.

E. and Mrs Cameron and children, to have a social evening with them, ere Mr Cameron‘s departâ€" ure for his new field of labor in New Brunswick. The evening was purely informal and comprised a short adâ€" dress from Mr Cameron on his recâ€" ent experiences in the Peace River Country and Mrs Cameron also conâ€" tributed something she had heard at the Baptist Missionary Congress recâ€" ently held in Toronto. At a certain stage in the evening, Mrs Robt McGilâ€" livary Clerk of the church, read to this couple an appreciative address, and Mrs Jas.

Tucker, South Line, Glenâ€" elg, was Wednesday last, Nov. 28th, the scene of a happy event, when their elder daughter, Gladys Sherâ€" wood, was united in holy bonds of matrimony to Mr Joseph A. Dixon of North Egremont. At 5 p.m. the bride entered the parlor on the arm of her father, who gave her away, to the strains of the wedding march, played by her cousin, Mrs. Thos. McMenemy, (nee Georgina Long) of Toronto. _ Here before her pastor, Rev. W. A. Curran of Priceâ€" ville, and under a ring of cedar and wedding bells, the young _ couple plighted their vows that made them man and wife. The bride looked charming in ivory satin, trimmed with seed pearls, her long tulle veil falling from a coronet of orange . blossoms, and carried a boquet of white crysanâ€" themums and maiden hair fern.

At the close of the supper, Rev. Mr Curran addressed the gathering in a few well chosen words, and proposed a toast to the bride. The evening was spent in music and mirth, Rev. Mr Curran proving himself to be the chief enterâ€" tainer of the evening, musically and otherwise. Many handsome gifts were received by the yourg couple who are highly estcemed in the section and beyond its limits. A silver casserole was the gift of some of the girl friends of the bride in Toronto, where she formerly was employed as stenographer. ‘The bridal couple purpose ° taking up housekeeping on the groom‘s farm near by, and their many friends, inâ€" cluding those of the Review, wish for them bon voyage through life.

Concert a Success Dan Cupid Busy Again While not a capacity audience for Durham‘s Town Hall, it was one of the most satisfactory audiences that ever left a concert hall program here. The Aeolian Sextette lived up to the guarantee given them by their manâ€" ager, for in the troupe was not one weak artist. The I. 0. D. E., under whose auspices the concert was givâ€" en, are to be congratulated on assumâ€" ing the risk of bringing to Durham, artists of the calibre the following proved themselves to be : Miss Agnes Aidie, Soprano : Wm. Baker, tenor : Miss Eileen Law, contralto : Rupert Lucas, baritone :Miss D. Ryan, enterâ€" tainer :Bertram Brown, violinist and accompanist. * Miss Aidie has been heard in town before and her singing of last evenâ€" ing won for her many new admirers as well as retaining the admiration of: those formerly hearing her. . Her voice is a high lyric soprano and of great strength and range and her sendition of Tosti‘s "Good Bye" left rothing to be desired. Also she apâ€" peared to advantage in grand opera purhim Reviens.

The other artists were warmly reâ€" ceived and in their respective roles, left a very favorable impression. It is impossible to single out any parâ€" ticular star for the nature of their art is quite distinctly different. The L O. D. E. will have very little receipts to call their own as a result of this concert, if any, but they have the satisfacton of knowng they have the appreciation of the audience that were present last evenng.
