Though the weather cleared to some extent during the day, it was impossible to put on the big program of athletic events. The only part of the program carried out was the dance in the Town Hall in the evening, which was attended by three or four carloads from Durham. Durham Midgets were billed to meet Walkerton in an exhibition lacross> game, but will now have to wait for the scheduled games before getting into action. | Mrs. Enge!, Hanover, Injured ] Mrs H. H.

She received imâ€"| mediate attention and while it willi i)H‘ some little time before she is able to leave the hospital, she is making satisfactory progress. The other three occupants of the car escaped with al few bruises. 1.O.DE.

The object of their visit was to present an h:sâ€" torical pictrue, "Canadian Foresters in Windsor Park" to the school. This work is a section of the educaâ€" tional scheme of the Imperial Order Daughters of the Empire, who have and will distribute 18,000 of piciures similar to these to Ontario‘s urban and rural schools . They are framcds by the Ontario Government and upon the frame is the inscription of the Order. The picture alludes to the work of men of the Forestry Bn. in the Great War period, hewing down giant trees in the Windsor Park Esâ€" tate, with the battlements and iurâ€" rets of the castle in the distance. Mrs. G. Kearney, as Regent of Durâ€" ham Chapter, unveiled the plicture, followed by a short address by Mrs. G. McKechnie, who as Educational Sec‘y of Chapter said : Dear Boys and Girls :â€" When you look upon this picture, you will remember the noble deeds of Canadians who served their King and Empire in the army navy or air force, or as chaplains, doctors, rurâ€" ses, railway or lumbermen in the Great War 1914â€"1918. These preâ€" tures, copied from the originals in the National Gallery, Ottawa, have been framed by the Ontario Gov‘t and presented by the Imperial Order Daughters of the Empire, in the deâ€" sire to remind you of the heroic herâ€" itage of which you must prove wor thy in times of peace as well as nu.mbersr for the benefit of ;he\:lsl tors, and at the close, on behalf of the trustees, thanked the visiting ladies for their kindness in being present for such an occasion anc zi the close a tasty luncn was ;;;\Pd by some of the ladies of the districi.

At the present time there is a | case pending and just as soon as the ‘authorities satisfy themselves that they are on the right track, wili they act. The fishing reserves along the Sauâ€" geen‘s branches are quite numerous, and it is becoming as difficuit to seâ€" cure new pastures for this sport as it is to make a Conservative see a point from a Liberal viewpoint or vice versa. WM. LISTER There passed away on Friday evâ€" ening, May 20th, at the home of iis son James, 4th con. Sullivan, Wim. Lister, at the ripe age of 84 years. Deceased has been unwell for some time, and in his weakened condition, preumonia set in which proved to be fatal. In his passing, Bentinck, â€"where the greater part of his life was spentâ€"loses a respected pioneer and few are now left of that age who can tell the story of early hardâ€" ships and privations and with that indomitable will power and perâ€" severance characteristic of the pionâ€" eers. The late Mr Lister was born in Darlington, England, and at the age of 14 years emigrated to Canada. The family came to Bentinck Tp. and vhere later he married â€" Catharine Sweeny, who predeceased him 13 years ago. Thus bereft of his life partner in practically early married life, be struggled on and succeeded in making comfortable surroundings for himself and family. Of the union there were nine children, but now only four survive him, viz : Mrs P. J. Sullivan, Markdale: Mrs Steven Martin, Markdale ; Mrs Jas Sullivan, Dornoch and James, on the 4th con. Sullivan, with whom he has made his home for the past five years. The funeral was held from St. Paul‘s R. C. Church, Dornoch, Monâ€" day morning, a very large number attending the last rites. Father Lrcâ€" Naulty said Mass and Father . Roach delivered the sermon. The pail bearers were old friends and neighâ€" bors of deceased, viz : John Milis, Durham ; P. H. O‘Neill, R.J. Corlett, Wm. Hudson, Jas Walsh, W. O‘Mara. Also one sister, Mrs Wm Vasey of Owen Sound, survives her brother. According to the Magistrate, the three Guelph men were good fellows, only out for a day‘s sport and in levying a fine, he did so to se an example more than purge them with punishment. He is resentful of the lordly attitude _ adopted by some strangers who come to Grey Co. to fish and of the disregard of Sunday observance. There passed away in Guelph, on‘ Monday, May 23rd, Mary Atchison, relict of the late William Hill, in her 76th year. Deceased lady has made her home with her daughter there, Mrs. Geo. Searle, and who has 3:vâ€" en her mother in her last days every ; care and attention possible. Mrs Hill was a victim of a paralytic stroke| the only culprits who have been robâ€" bing and pilfering our trout streams and have as little respect for fishing laws as a bootlegger has for the O. T. A. in a wet district. They come in dozens * from Guelph, Kitchener, Hamilton, Toronto _ and elsewhere and it is hoped the game wardens and magistrate will continue the start they have made. two years ago and while partially reâ€" covering, never wholly regained the use of her limbs. Last fall she su{â€" fered a second stroke, which rencer ed her a complete invalid, and death has come to her as a happy release. Mrs Hill was born in Mono Townâ€" ship, near Orangeville, nearly 76 w' Catching a large mess of fine Sauâ€" geen trout, at the rear of Win Jack‘s farm in Glenelg, on Sunday last, a trio of Guelph fishermen were appreâ€" hended by a Game Warden for havâ€" ing fish smaller than seven incues required by law. _ Summoned before Magistrate Laidlaw, one of the trio returned to town Monday and paid fines for his companions and himâ€" self. In addition, their string of 78 fish was seized and donated to Durâ€" ham Hospital, their fishing apparaius confiscated and sent to the departâ€" ment in Toronto. The offenders were the Wakefeld Brothers and Geo. Hetherington of the Royal City. _ But they were not; Passing of the Pioneers Would Catch Fish on Sunday But are Laught by the Law MRS. WM.

Banting, | the discoverer of Insulin, leads folâ€" ‘lowed by Dr. Chas. E. Saunders, disâ€" , coverer of Marquis Wheat. The mair point of interest seems to be what | Canadians in general consider to be Itrue greatness. The letters received in connection with this feature leave no doubt on this score. Self sacrifice ‘and service to one‘s fellowsâ€"that is { Canada‘s idea of greatness. Dr. C. C. Ramage, Brussels, selected Canon |F. a. Scott, the great war padre, as Ian outstanding Canadian, and what he says regarding the Canon is to ibe found in the May 15th issue of MacLean‘s : |\ "During four long years of war, in | and out of the strain and stress of battle, the cheery ‘presence, indomâ€" itable courage and magnetic personâ€" ality of this man was a living inâ€" l spiration to thousands of his khaki clad countrymen. _ Even when sufâ€" } fering from grevious wounds at the Cambrai engagement in September | 1918, his parting thoughts were for , "my boys," whom he regretted leayâ€" |_ ing.
