The Friend-hip of devcuon I: the highest form of devotion and the friendship of God is the love that seeks to save the sinner. Rellgion is knowing this friend and seeking to be like Him. I. Friendship of Sympathy. which forms a bond between us. Friendship cannot live amid suspicion and dis- trust. Things that. oppcse friendship create war and strife. All organiza- tions that create the spirit of Friend- ship are allies. There should be a fellow feeling between races. classes and individuals: " an example, Mr. Netram, a native of India, was made a member of Toronto Conference. The purpose of the League of Na. tions is to create Friendship. i Jane and peonies are a hard com- bination to excel, - the loveliest l month and the loveliest flower of the l month. With this as a base. they are i bound to make any event successful. l Such was the annual Peony Tea, which came off on Tuesday in Queen (St. United Church basement. The ( Peony was holding its proud head a- ! loft in many places and coupled with ' the streamers of pink and white t crepe paper in festocns trom corner i to corner ot ceiling, it made a beau. titfui scene. Many ladies took advan- l tage of the occasion and found the I social and refreshment side up to the T high standard usually set by the lad. ies of Queen St. Church. Mrs Fiddes and Mrs H.

Deceased was born in Durham near- ly 60 years ago the eldest son of the late James H. Hunter, who represent- t ed South Grey in the Provincial Leg- ' islature for many years, and at Mrs. . Hunter, who today ls plunged into mourning. He grew up here, received his early education here and succeed- ed to his father’s business, which he developed and enlarged. He was a capable business man and in every way a citizen to be proud of and _ there came a day when Durham {grieved to learn that the allurements (and advantages or the Western city Iwas to deprive them of his presence. In addition to his fine business ca- pacity. he was a lover of manly sports and took pride in moving amid sporting circles, where he won dis. tinction as a man ct honor and an advocate of fair play in every situa- tion. As well he was a music lover all his life and during residence in Dur- ham, was a stronghold in Trinity Church choir. The last few years in Minneapclis he has been President ot the Apollo Club there, a celebrated male organization of ever 200 trained voices, which each February rendered oratorlos and operatic concerts. Interment. will of course take place trom his WPstern home though many friends here would have liken him to lie in Durham. Ho had an extensive real estate business in Minneapolis covering a wide territory. Almost 25 years ago he married Miss Whyte, daughter of the Vice Pres. of the C.P.R. at that time, who with a son and daughter mourns to-day. At last a letter Came announcing acute illness and his sister Blanche, Mrs borne Somerville left in haste to minister to him. But alas the end had come before she reached him and sorrow reigned. JAMES A. HUNTER On Saturday last the sad news reached his mother, Mrs J. H. Hun- ter at "The Hedges", that her eldest son, the well known James A. Hun- ter, of Minneapolis, was dead. At this writing we have no details, but it must have been sudden tor letters not long before made no mention of illness.
