Splendid Donation to Yown lith Former Durham Resident Dead The death occurred on Thursday afâ€" ternoon last in Owen Sound of a forâ€" mer Durham resident, Mr Cuthbert (Joe) Firth. â€" Deceased has been in failing health for the last ten months and has been confined to his bed for several short periods during that time. Although he has not been able to work for several years, he was well known and respected. Mr Firth was born in Sheffield, England and 24 vears ago came to Canada with his witfe and settled in Indian Head, Sask. After four years in the West he came to Durham where he also lived for four years before going to O. Sound. He was fifty four years of age last month.

Mr Wallace Ingram then read an address of appreciation to Mr and Mrs Moore and Mr W Whitâ€" mee, on behalf of many friends presâ€" ent, presented Mr Moore with a purse of gold. _ Addresses which followed, showed in no uncertain tone, the high esteem in which Mr Moore was held by his many friends. Mr Moore 1J ome responded on behalf of himself and wife, expressing gratitude to the many who had deemed his ministry a blessing to their lives, also for the splendid gift. _A dellickms luncheon but d Li ie aicidudt.â€"snte d was then served by the ladies and the gathering broke up after singing old familiar pieces that bind good friends together.

Judge Creasor Here Tuesday His Honor, Judge Creasor, Revisâ€" ing Officer for the Plebiscite for S. Grey, held a court here Tuesday. Mr. Thos. Allan for West Ward had quite a list of names added, and Mr. Allan Bell for East Ward and C. Ramage for North Ward, also added their quota, but fewer than West Ward. The Judge was quite obliging and considerate. Now then, all there is to do is to get out the vote.

Elvidge was Durham‘s best athlete winning 12% points, while Lizzie Hind was the leading girl with 10%. _ Durham students won 3 out of the 4 relay races. Following are the winners : Senior Boys 100 vard dashâ€"Brown (Chesley), Durham Hish School Won Athletic Meet in Walkerton The Annual High School Field Day of Sports was held in Walkerton last Saturdayâ€"or rather, partially so. With less than half the events over, heavy showers which â€"fell interimilâ€" tently from noon on, put an end to the sports about 3 p. m., as it was imâ€" possible to race, jump or scarcely to navigate on the muddy track. The balance of the sports were held over until Wednesday. Three High Schools entered the meetâ€"Durham, Chesley and Walkerâ€" ton, and every event was keenly conâ€" tested. Rev. Major Graham of Chesâ€" ley was Clerk of the Course, and Rev. J.H. Whealan, Durham, one of the judges. _ Two only from each school were allowed to compete in each evâ€" ent, and when called off, Durham led with 25 points, Chesley 21, Walkerton 20. As afternoon events had been run on a more or less muddy track, Walkerton and Chesley wished to call all off, when Durham had gained up. Principal Robb rightly refused to concede this, but consented to drop the last raceâ€"Junior girls, till next time, in which Durham took 1st and 2ndâ€"5 points. This was agreed to, and final standing Saturday thus was Chesley 21, Durham 20, Walkerâ€" ton Durham wasn‘t in it in Senior racâ€" ing events, but Clarence Noble made a great mark in hop, step and jump â€"37 ft, 9 in., only 1 inch behind the winner. Clarence Elvidge won the Jr. boys‘ 100 yard dash with a beauâ€" tiful sprint, and S. Havens made a wonderful hop, step and jump for a juniorâ€"35 ft. 6 in. _ Becker of Chesâ€" ley broke the record a foot for Jr. broad jump with 17 ft. 1 in. Durham girls also made a good showing. That real athletes were competing, is shown by the records set up, beating in almost every case the winners of events at Owen Sound and Guelph field day meets last week.

Dean, Sec‘y of the Finance Department of the Methâ€" odist Church of Canada. _ Rev. Dean is an able, forceful speaker and two well filled congregations greatly apâ€" preciated his discourses. In the evening he spoke from Prov. 1: 9,10 and Luke 6 : 38. Both texts expressed the same truth, that a life of deep spirituality makes for materâ€" ial prosperity. Scripture contains many promises of this. If we are working partners with God we will get better things from God : when He provides the means, it is our business to use them. The speaker strongly advocated tithing, or systematic givâ€" ing to the church : in so doing both spiritual and material benefits would accrue He advised all young people to systematize their expenditure and money would go further. The great evil of the present day is that men and women are displacing God with all sorts of frivolity and vice. 50 yard dashâ€"L. Hind (D.),F. Mc Callum (D.), Silver (W.)

They had stimulated others as well to inâ€" creased givings. It was no sacrifice but a joy, to set gpart a tenth or some fixed portion of our income for the Lord‘s work. _ Excellent music was provided at both services by the choir in anthâ€" ems, by the male quartette, who renâ€" dered one number _ at each service, and in solos by Messrs Bert Saundâ€" ers at morning and W. Benson at evening service. The pastor, Rev J. E. Peters, towâ€" ards the close of evening service, gave a brief resume of early Methodâ€" ism in Durham. It was in 1851â€"73 years ago that Rev. Jas. Baskerville was ordained minister of the New Conpnection Methodist Church here, though odd services were held in priâ€" vate homes previously. There were 38 members. In 1852 Rev Henry Reid became the pastor of the Wesleyan Methodists here, and shortly after, the two bodies were united. _ There were nine appointments in Durham cireuit in 1874. At the present time the church is in a prosperous condition, spiritually and materially, and the objective of $400 special offering was exceeded at the two services.
