ALE In the Hands of a Receiver | Only three years and the Great Oshawa Reformer Printing Compan_v.' which undertook to show the printâ€" ing trade of this county and district how to work for half recognized priâ€" ees and live, has passed into the hands of the Receiver, which is next to saying that it failed. The eminent gentleman introduced from the clty with their high toned connection of the great daily press, have doubtless learned a few things they did not knowâ€"among others that work canâ€" not be done at less than cost and the business . succeed. When this new company was floated in Oshawas, | one of the first things its execmlve. undertook was to capture everything in the printing tine throughout the country by writing the several munâ€" fcipal councils, suggesting that their municipal printing be turned over to them : the size of their plant and the wondrous business knowledge of it« executive enabling them to work at greatly reduced prices from those prevailing. It hadn‘t much effect by the way, the councils standing loyalâ€" Iy by their local offices in the belief that they were getting fair values in the prices being chargedâ€"as they are. â€" And now the end.â€"Beaverton Express.

There were three or four tablefuls who ,wire waited upon in the basement |b¢ the young ladies of the church, and all enjoyed the liberal spread | provided. While waiters were being satisfied, Revy Mr Peters read an inâ€" ‘teresting passage to the gathering (assembled upstairs for the proâ€" |\ gram) from "Letters of a selfâ€"made | merchant to his son." He first calâ€" | led upon the orchestra, comprising | Messrs Harry and George Hugill, on | cornet and snare drum, Cliff Buschâ€" ‘len on slide trombone, Hugh MceCrae |Frank Gardiner and Geo Yirrs on | violin and Miss Stella McCrae at 'organ. who rendered several delightâ€" | ful selections.

Accompanied by their sister, Mrs E. McDonald, the three responded with "Come back to Erin" in pleasing harmony. The feature of the program was the able and elâ€" oquent address of Rev. W. H. Smith on "Keeping Step." He pointed out its value in discipline and effectiveâ€" ness in the army, and applied it to the churches and their workers.

St Patrick‘s Banquet The chairman, Rev. J. E. Peters, referred most appreciatively to his brother pastor‘s address, and hoped the visions of greater coâ€"operation and service in the Master‘s work would be fully realized. How the fire started is a mystery, it being noticed early in the morning and too late to save any of the conâ€" tents. It is a total loss to the boys as there was no insurance on conâ€" tents. They were going to town the next day to insure contents. This i¢g the second fire they have experâ€" ienced, when a little over a year ago, they lost the house they occuâ€" pied on another place, also by fire.

It was then the Walkertonians discovered that next to keeping their powder dry in war, keeping the graniteware cool in peace was the first essential in cur ling. Wherever a Walkerton stone lay a holé would melt in the ice, and instead of gliding over the crystal, when thrown by local sinew and brawn, the disk would stall in a pathway of water of its own makâ€" ing. It was no go and the stoutest of the Bruce capitalists couldn‘t get a shot across to the other end. Inâ€" stead of avenging their defeat here, the Walkertonians got a walloping that would make Napoleon‘s retreat from Moscow look like a triumphal march of victory in comparison.

Arriving at Durham they lifted the At the close of these numbers, the winners in the crokinole shooting were announced by Dr Bell who were Mr Cecil Blyth and Miss Barbara Ritchie, while Mr Stanley Pust and Miss Blanche Murdock captured the booby honors. Dr. Alex. M. Bell was appointed Chairman and a short program was placed in his hands, which he acceptâ€" ably presided over. The program had a real Irish flavor and were solos by Mrs C. C. Middlebro and Miss W. Blyth ; two quartettes by the Bell trio and Mrs Moore McFadden and a piano solo by Miss Alice M.

The schoolroom of the church was pretâ€" tily decorated in the St Patrick‘s Day color, green, paper festoons of the dear little shamrock of Ireland being suspended from pillar to pilâ€" lar. It is exceedingly doubtful if St‘ Patrick would have in his busy life, found time to enjoy a crack on the crokinole board, if such a board worv‘ existent at that time, but his annivâ€" ersary in Durham ‘was celebrated inI this manner with much ginger amlt go.

Referring to Miss Kathleen‘s orâ€" gan work, the Brantford Expositor has this to say : "Miss Kathleen Milne contributed Stainer‘s "Fantasâ€" ia," Duncan‘s Ava Maria," Lee‘s "Festival Postlude," and gave a good display of technique and sympaâ€" thetic interpretation." As referred to in last week‘s issue of â€" the â€" ‘Review,‘ Miss â€" Kathleen Milne was â€" recently in Brantford, where she went to assist Mr Frank S. Weaver, Mus. Bach., and formerly of Knox Church, Walkerton, in a musical recital, which he arranged for his pupils. Miss Kathleen assisâ€" ted Mr Weaver in organ numbers, while Misses Marie Schwindt and Lucy Wettlaufer of Walkerton were also present to assist in vocal numâ€" bers.
