Mr. Wm Keating also favored with two songs and accompanied the orchestra of the Sharpe boys on a horn. A laughable skit was put on by 5 Markâ€" dale young men, introducing names of local celebrities throughout, goodâ€" naturedly. There were some "sweer" words in the act which could easily have been left out, to the betterment of the skit. G. J.

Mr Innis McLean had his tonsils removed in Durham hospital and proâ€" gressing favorably. by the passing of time he‘s beginning to descend the hill. But all his old time ability as a faithful preacher he still carries. We noticed many gray heads in church on Sunday, not from the effects of age, but naturally some get gray before they are halfâ€" way in this journey of life. ‘ I It is a pleasure to the aged veterâ€" an when he is kindly greeted by the youth of both sexes. It makes them feel that they were young some scores of years ago, but yet kindly respectâ€" ed by the younger generation . |\ _ We thank Mr David MeCrie, Vicâ€" toria, B.C., for his kind words â€" for our old time history. It will bring to his memory when we put up for the night at his comfortable home on the Normanby side. Mr McCrie had a farm on Glenelg side of the Garaâ€" fraxa Road and for an excuse we went to deliver him his assessment . paper and to secure a night‘s lodgâ€" ing. Mr and Mrs McCrie being good church members, attended a meeting in â€"the Presbyterian Church â€" and before leaving to attend same, Mrs. | McCrie made us a good comfortable sleeping bed which I occupied before | they got back. In the morning . she ; missed nothing, but when the mornâ€" ing meal was over she found some oi the abundance . of good things misâ€" | sing which she with pleasure acceptâ€" ed the thanks of the partaker. | This Tuesday has a fine appearance the cool weather of the past week | will be taking a change. The early ‘ sown fields are quite green and alfalâ€" #a hav could almost be cut on account This Monday, 19th May is quite, cool and some frost last night. It lsi Crizzling iain this morning. | Last Sunday was Anniversary Dayi in the Presbyterian Church, Durnam, and Rev. Peter Nichol as the ofl’it:ia\-| ting preacher gave a fine sermon suitable for the cccasion. Mr Nichol is one of the good old style preachâ€"| eis, who after taking out his texi,| preachked an eloquent sermon, standâ€" ing at the end of the pulpit in a caim manner delivering his message to a . large audience who appreclated the sermons on the occasion. | Mr and Mrs Thos Tucker, Mr and Mrs Joe Dixon and Annie, visited recâ€" ently at Henry Tucker‘s.

PRICEVILLE & GLENELG Two or three carlcads fiom Priceâ€" ville and vicinity were there, being Nichol‘s, â€"McLean‘s and Campbell‘s, all good Presbyterians. Rev Mr Nichâ€" ol was born and raised on the 2nd con, Glenelg on the old survey and fa hay could almos of its rapid growth Mrs McCrie‘s father was one of the pioneers of the South Line, â€" Glen‘g eighty years ago. The first stone house probably built in Glenelg, by the late Chas. Gray on the corner of the Garafraxa Read is now tumbled Aown and nothing to be seen but a heap of old stones. Mrs Hill whose home was south of Camp‘s Creek, is living yet, nearing her 100 mark. Presbyterians being~ good protesâ€" ants had a good attendance at their scâ€"ial on Monday night, despite the unfavorable evening. When I was a small boy I thought no other boy tad such a good father. So every boy should think the same and every good member of the different branchâ€" es of the church should think that his or her church as the best, not at VICINITY THE DURHAM REVIEw depriving others to think the same of heir branch. We in the Park are still trying to keep on in the usual way, but the rainy cold weather is very trying on the patience, especially in the middle of seeding. But as we can do nothing to better conditons we will just trust in Providence, knowing that if we do our part well we will have both seed time and harvest. General health is very good but we are sorry that Mr. Jas. Hay is not regaining health and strength as his many friends wouid like to see him do and most of the time compelled to stay in bed. We hope the sunny days ahead will help him to better health. We were sorry to read in the Owen Sound paper last week of the death of a young man of promise, the son of Mr and Mrs Michael Norris, Markâ€" dale. Mrs Norris was formerly Miss Margaret Hannam of this place and her many old friends and acquaintâ€" ances will sympathize with the famiâ€" ly in their great sorrow. Mrs Hardy and brother, G W Parâ€" slow, enjoyed a short visit last week from their cousin Miss Halpenny who for several years has been engaged in missionary work in the far northâ€" west and is now home on furlough and attending college in Toronto. She expects to resume her work on the Kolo Kreeka mission field in the the fall. monthly meeting Tuesday of this week at 2.30 p.m. in the church when Mrs . Rev.

The Dramatic Club of the Park have been invited . to present their play ‘Two days to get Married" at Eugenia _ shortly, but owing to the busy season, have not yet fully deâ€" cided if they will accept. A number from the Park attendel the dance in Stewart‘s Han, HOPC!: ville last week. They did not see any rats on the way home but of course we have no government sale in this locality.

As an honor to pioneer Motherhood of Southern Alberta, Mr Lachie Mcâ€" Kinnon, Calgary, but formerly a Grey boy and native of Priceville district, has carved his name in that city‘s roll of gratitude and honor for his magnificent gift. On Mother‘s Day, in Wesley United Church there, a large new gallery was dedicated to the above brave mothers, made possible by ~ the gift of $10,000. There â€" were two â€" stipulations to go with the gift: (1) that the gallery be built well and (2) that it be dediâ€" cated to the pioneer mothers of Southern Alberta, Mr McKinnon, who as the pastor stated, "is a bashful young man of 65", is a pioneer himâ€" self of that country, and knows first hand the bhardships and privations of these pioneer mothers. Referring to the gift from the pulpit, Mr Peacock stated Mr McKinnon as a man of few words and that he expected Mr Mcâ€" Kinnon would be the most unhappy one in the congregation to receive this publicity for he did not want his name mentioned in connection with the gift. Wesley Church has done the graceâ€" ful thing in placing a tablet in the church to his memory. There were five mothers present who represented these picneer mothâ€" ers: one Mrs McDougall, who had the distinction of being the first white woman to enter Southern Alberta. Her husband was a missionary with the Indians and they were the only white people among that great tribe. Their first mission at Morley and Banff and their church is still standâ€" ing, also a fine stone memorial on the sde of the road, in memory of the MceDougail‘s. Her husband died 13 years ago and his father, Rev Geo. McDougall lost his life in a blizzard. One other lady had the Gistinction of being the first white child born in Alberta. They were presented with flowers, also Mrs McKinnon. Mr McKinnon is a cousin of Mrs. John Burgess and the Misses Annie and Julia Weir of town and a brothâ€" er of Mrs Wm Aldcorn, Priceville and brcther to Chas. McKinnon at Basâ€" sano, Alta: Queer St. Auxiliary Hear Conv:nfon Miss Norma Gagnen entertained the Ladies‘ Auxiliary of Queen St United Chuich in her Lome on Thursday evâ€" ening, May 15th. Mrs Padfield occuâ€" pied the president‘s chair and about twenty ladies were present. The meeting opened with hymn 85 followâ€" ed by the Lord‘s Prayer in unison. Miss Metcalfe, Secy., gave the minâ€" utes of the previous meeting which were adopted. Roll caill followed. Misses Twamley invited the Auxilâ€" iary to meet in their home in June . Misses Bernice Whitmore and Eunice Moon were appointed to act as a memâ€" bership committee. The bible lesson taken from Joshua 1: 1â€"10, was read by Miss Juanita Holmes. The Watchâ€" tower reports were given: India by Miss Inez Twamley; Community by Miss Gertrude Glass and Stewardship by Miss G. Saunders. The third chapter of the study book} was very capably given by Miss Norâ€"| ma Gagnon. A choice piano solo was | rendered by Miss E. Kinnee. M.ss | Etta Twamley gave a splendid report | of the annual Convention of (‘.reyf Presbytery held in Hanover. Miss"‘ Twamley emphasized the need of Atâ€"| tending these Conventions not so | much for the information acquired as | for the wonderful inspiration gained . | A thought on prayer was "We wlshl God to answer our prayers favorably butâ€", are we doing as God comâ€" mands ?" The Blue Book now being prepared was recommended to each | one as a book of helpful informat.on. Bales of supplies to the value of $800 was sent out from Owen Sound as Grey Presbyterial contributions last year . Last year the total memberâ€" ship was 1034, this year it is lessâ€"961 yet the money raised was $300 more. Of a $12000 objective, 92 per cent. was raised, the trouble being the heavy expenses, which we must try to lower. Of the $7 organizations in Grey, the one at Latona (Dornoch), won the highest praise by raising 160 per cent. Our Auxiliary came in the 100 per cent class, others were below that. The objective for next year wili be about $13000. The Quiect Hour was taken by Mrs Davey of Chesley, a member of Bruce Presbyterial. Her idea on prayer was that we do not spend enough time in earnest prayer. 15 minutes seems a long time to some, while others deâ€" light in 3 hours. John Wesley beâ€" lieved in prayer. Of the afternoon session, an interesting feature was the President‘s message, who read a letter from Miss Rutheiford, foreign missionary . Dr. Margaret McKellar gave an inâ€" teresting address. She was sent out from Ingersoll Presbyterian Church over forty years ago, and Was won several medals in India. Her hospital is built of graystone and accommoâ€" dates 50 patients indoors but using the wide verandahs may increase the number to 150. It is built rest the church. Their motte is "We wash the wounds, God heals them." _ In rton Repoits ONTA at the evening meeting, told of how Indian students who are educated in England and America, on their reâ€" turn to India, must suffer many hardâ€" ships to reâ€"enter the caste system in order to be of missionary help to the members.
