Since the primeval forest was clearâ€" ed, it has always been in the possesâ€" slon of the Livingstone family and the present occupant has farme there for thirty seven years, or all his married life Mr Livingsione has been a sucecssful farmer too, having gone extensively into thoroughbred sheep raising, which Mr. Reay inâ€" tends to continue. He is selling all stock, implements and furniture en March 1st. It is with deep regret the Livingâ€" stones will leave their home: they are the last of the name now in that locality, but their family are now all away doing for themselves at Hamâ€" ilton, Chicago, North Bay and elseâ€" where. The parents have decided to take life a little easier henceforth, and will spend the spring and sumâ€" mer visiting the members of their family and among other friends, and thence purpose to take up residence in either Durham or Hanover. A â€" notable real estate deal was completed â€" Monday of this week, when Wm. A. Livingstone sold his 110 acre farm at Livingstone‘s cor ner, on Durham Road, Bentinck, to his neighbor, Chas. H. Reay. Mr. Reay already had 50 acres to the east ofi it, so now has 160 altogether. The latter sold his present farm on north side of Durham Road to Mr Rex Lawrence and both get possession aâ€" bout the middle of March. Hertinck Farms In renewing his Review for 1927%, Mr Jas. Edge of Elbow, Sask. says that they have had a cold winter sine Nov 15th and is still cold. There is a lot of snow and feed for stock is scarce. Quite a number of car loads of oats have been shipped in and some hay oats are selling at 62c. The Baptist Choir, numbering aâ€" bout twenty in all, held an enjoyable tobogganing party Tuesday night on the hills of the Stone and Sand Co., south of the plant. There was no doubt in the minds of any that the sport was a grand appetite maker, and the lunch provided by Mr and Mrs Pust at their home near by, was a welcome sight.

CARD OF\NTHANKS Change Owaers For Durham there were no stars. Every man worked together to win and the score shows the â€" result. Wingham‘s best man seemed to be Mcâ€" Gee in goal. _ He handled dozens of shots from avery angle and was only beaten from close in by the Durham puckâ€"carriers. Myers and Howson looked good too but they failed io get their short passing game working properly. It was this attack which netted Wingham‘s five goals here. The second period saw Durham score four goals and thus sew up the old game. â€" Buschlen slammed in a rebound for the third goal. Elvidge made it four when he lifted one over the prostrate McGee. _ Wilson got the fifth and McGirr flipped the sixtb one shortly before the period ended. The third period began with Wingâ€" bam playing a four man offensive to get a goal. Durham‘s defence was too good however, and while they held Wingh&m scoreless, Elvidge took advantage of an opportunity and made the score 7â€"0. The Durham players were extremâ€" ely well pleased with the way they were treated by Wingham fans and players. The Wingham round, won by a score of 11â€"5, or a 6 goal lead, placâ€" es Durham team right in the finals for the N. H. L. Senior championâ€" ship There are only four districts and Durkam has already captured two of them. Listowel are now playâ€" ing off home and home games with Paisley for the championship of their district and as Listowel won in Paisley Tuesday by 7 to 6, they are the probable district leaders. 7â€"0 Win in Winsham Pats Durkam ia NML. Finsls In a game which was featured by good hockey throughout, Durham wan the right to enter the finals of the Northern Hockey League. _ Although Durham had suffered a 5â€"â€"4 reverse at home, they went over to win and with them were about sixty supporiâ€" ers. With the vocal and moral supâ€" port given by such a body of rootâ€" ers, it is doubtful if any team could fail to bring out a win. The game was in charge of Dot Reld of Seaforth and was very capâ€" ably handled. The game was kept clean throughout by strict enforceâ€" ment of the hockey code. The first period opened at a fast pace About 7 min. had elapsed when Elvidge went around Wingham‘s net and shoved the rubber past MeGee. The second goal came when Wilson baited in Elvidge‘s rebound. Tavistock took the other district and they must play one semi final round with either Listowel or Paisley to be on an even footing with Durâ€" ham. ‘Tavistock is considered here to be the strongest team of the three, and thus Durham‘s most probable opâ€" ponents in the two final games. Whether Durham will have the first game away or at home, is not yet decided, but the opening final wili likely be next Friday, Feb. 25th. Wingham Won the First Semi Final from Darham Durham hockey team and fans were handed a rude jolt last Thursâ€" day night when Wingham team moiâ€" ored over and captured the first N. H. L. semi final by one goal, 5 to 4. In their district, Wingham had beatâ€" en out Kincardine and Ripley, but in O. H. A. games, they had taken secâ€" ond place to Palmerston and Listowâ€" el. As the Durham team and fans believe they are the equal of these latter towns in playing strength, they anticipated gaining the verdict ove: Wingham also. The visitors however displayed as good hockey as they have shown this season, according to their manager, while Durham had an off night and couldr‘t get go.ng properly except for the first hall of th final period when they smothered the Wingham defence but could get only two shots past McGee in the nets. All the game Durham had the better of the play, but their shots almost invarâ€" iably struck McGee‘s pads, and the locals were scarcely alert enough to ccunt by sfamming the rebounds. By @ctual count, +â€"Burham had 44 direct whots on the nets blocked by McGo», while Kress in Dutham nets had but 11. McGee stopped 11 in 1st period, 12 in 2nd, and 21 in 3rd, while Kress turned aside 3 in ist, 2 in 2nd and 6 in 3rd. Though five shots beat him, Kress played a strong game in Durâ€" ham nets and was not responsible for the loss. _ All five were scored from close in shots or from scramâ€" les in front of the nets, where he bad slim chances to save. Neither the local forward line nor dcefence played their usual game, but it i1lust be admiited Wwingliam ueckâ€" ed closely and gave them few op PURZAY. THU®SNAY FEB UARY 17, 1927 ©ith @=ch is :avcorporated the Uolstein Leages Knox St Valntive Social a Pleasant Affair Brown was the visitors most dangâ€" erous man, but Lockridge and How son were also strong, while McGee was a charmer in the nets, as alâ€" most every shot was directly at him and he turned aside dozens with litâ€" tle effort. Wingham counted first when Brown batted in the puck in front of the ~~‘1 / wetting a pass from rear of nets . The prettiest goal of the night was the culmination of fast team play, Elvidge to Buschlen, to Elvidge t adt â€" brovk. away. Winghaur had the trip developed to a nicety, to save sure goals. Buschlen was the chief victim in this regard, as Lockâ€" ridge tumbled him twice and Armâ€" strong boarded him when he had clear shots. _ Referee Ward of Harâ€" riston gave only 1 min. penalties for it, instead of the usual 2. The visiâ€" tors were handed 5 penalties to Durâ€" ham‘s 1, but Ward was lax in not benching more. _ His inefficiency cost Durham the game, as the visitors scored their 4th goal on an offside, and their last by a man who had bo n !nafing when he took the pass «ht in front of net and the score was tied. Patterson again put Wingâ€" ham ahead, but Buschlen again tied it with a swift side shot. _ Armâ€" strong put Wingham abead 3â€"2, at (Continued on Page 4) The school room of Knox Church carried a festive air on Monday evâ€" ening last, when St. Valentine was the honored saint in a social evening put on by the Ladies‘ Aid. The pasâ€" sing seasons have placed a halo over the old saint‘s head that he did not wear in â€"lifetime, and toâ€"day there are few communities that do not in seome way honor the 14th of Februâ€" ary. To many tradition is everything and toâ€"day the exchange of heart tokens has made a recognized busiâ€" ness for the manufacturers of these Valentine papetries. Streamers of red hearits festooned the school room and as well a warm, heartlike atmosphere prevailed. Miss Margaret Hunter, as President of the Ladies‘ Aid, officiated as chairlady in the absence of Rev. Mr Smith and i{ any comment might be made, acted as if to her, it were an every day alâ€"| fair. Community singing opened the, evening‘s program, . followed | by n| story of the origin of St. Valentine,| by Miss Jean Hepburn. The Ritchie‘ orchestra of Edge Hill supplied fire| instrumental music on violins and guitar, as did also Messrs D C Town,| B. Morlock, A. Clements and Mrs.! Town on mandolin, guitar, ukelele and piano respectively. Two new so~} loists were Dr. Bell and Mrs Will| Lawrence who were warmly applaud~l ed while Misses Jessie Bell and Winâ€"| nie Blyth and Mrs W. Porter and| Miss B. Stoneouse appeared in duett| form. There was & folk dance by four| girls under the tutelage of Miss F.| Nichol, B. A. and this completed the| first section of the program. | Valentine contests were arranged â€"one with Dr. Philander (Chas. Lang) and his xâ€"ray machine, which exposed the heart tendencies of his victims and so powerful was the maâ€" chine that these tendencies ran from triplets to diamond rings ! ! Another contest was "The Battle of the Hearts" and of the five hearts to be shot atâ€"Broken Heart, Faint Heart, Cold Heart, Warm Heart and Sweetheart, the latter proved the popular shot and was well riddled with bullets, Mr Douglas Ewen was the top notch shooter for the latter event, Miss S. McDonald the low shot. For the lunch period the men were secreted behind a curtain, showing only hands and feet and auctioned off by Dr. D. B. Jamieson, the ladies proving ready buyers. This was a great mirth producer, many of the men not realizing that such a high valuation was placed upon thei heads. The whole affair was well marâ€" aged and the Ladies‘ Aid account is enriched by $35 more. NOTICE TO FARMERS We expect abo March 15th, one carload of Western Oats, suitable for Seed.
