Apâ€"* ply to Mrs A. W. H. Lauder I Laterâ€"On Wednesday noon, Dr D. B. Jamieson received further word to report in Toronto that evening as they then expected to operate upon the patient. No word has come to Durham this Thursday morning as to how the Doctor stood the strain. noon and on arriving, was pleased to find his father some better, the troubâ€" le being stoppage of the bowel. While Dr Jamieson is yet active and useful and never busier, in the discharge of uuties in connection with Mothers‘ Allowances and Old Age Pensions, he is also acquiring a good many years to his credit and an illness at his age, n.eans much to himself and family. _ DR. DAVID JAMIESON ILL | IN HIS HOME AT TORONTO, The news that went over town on Mcnday that Dr David Jamieson was | seriously ill, caused much concern aâ€"| meng his many friends. His son, Dr D.

The illness of two weeks‘ duratior, developed into pneumonia and this fine life has now become a memory. For two months the past summer, with sister, Miss Kate, he was welcomed into the homes of his old section in Bentinck, where he was universally respected. He was a faithful member of the Baptist Church and a Liberal in polâ€" itical leanings. * Deceased was the son of the late Alexander McKinnon, and bern on lot 29 con 8, Bentinck. This was his hon.s until he made his first trip to the Canadian West in 1900, engaging in the carpentery trade. _ Since that date he has returned to early scenes at intervals. He is survived by a brother and sister at Basswood, Dunâ€" can and Kate and Donald at Lethâ€" bridge, Alta. and many cousins in the vicinity of Durham, who mourn his death. ves from God, we separate ourselves Iffrom the greatest scurce of power. Much else of an edifying nature will recall the visit of Bishop Farthâ€" ing, who is a power in his own church and in the Christian world. ‘g' Taking his text from Psalim 36 : 9, "‘l-‘cr with Thee is the fountain of lfe." _ Opr Saviour said I come to | give you life and John reminds us, |‘in HIM was life and the life was the \light of men." This generation has a greater view of nature than any gone ‘beror(:. Material things pass away | but Christ and His teachings remain: , He comes to give us life, and life, he ;messed. gives unity. The world is suffering toâ€"day by this aloofness from God. In spite of Peace Conferences we see the nations piling up war materials. People in churches even worshipping mammon, helding the truth but not exemplifyâ€" ing it in life, nor abiding in Him, who is the fountain of life. We are baptized into God, not into any c hurch. God in us, we in God, and to have fulness of life we must abide in God. If we separate ourselâ€" | The presence of Bishop Farthing of Montreal in Durham last week end, awakened interest, in Trinity Church especially. In his cpening remarks at the commencement of his sermon on Sunday morning, he feelingly recalled that he had, 45 ycars ago, been instalâ€" led as rector of this parish, of which they were touay celebrating their 80th anniversary. It was well for us to louk backwards sometimes, but it was better to look within and forward., It was a strong feature of human| nature to celebrate time and to him. this day was most interesting. t THE ROLL CALL Biskop Farthing Sunday UHT: FOR RENT him / ed hac ‘of Wa : 9, nor ot i of say w : to few at us, mains, the and we s a pipe c( Bylaws 915, 916 and 917 took up much time and discussion. 915 fixed | Nominations cn Monday, Dec 29, and lgl:;t:cns. if any, the following Monâ€" y, with following officials in charge, | the Councilâ€"selecting unemployed men ifor the polls : Noith Wardâ€"At Library: Jos.

Where . to taining episode of the night. A motion was first moved and seconded by two The Library Board were going aâ€" kead with drain, but cold weather was now holding up the work. Enginâ€" eer Lad advised against connecting the drain into catchbasin in front of Knox Church, as« with drain from septic tark into it, odors might arise. It shoulu be run into main sewer. W. S. Hunter of Board of Works said they hau graded up several of the unâ€" paved streets and they were now in good shape. $24 had been spent in improving condition of the town dump, but its value was undone in 24 hours. Some protection must be givâ€" en work here. Accounts totalling $5,821.35 were passed. This includes County rate of $5130. Much of the balance was for salaries and street work. Chairman The C.N.R asked in what time watâ€" er supply could be provided. _ The Mayor stated both railways were anxâ€" ous to secure supply as early as posâ€" sible, as pumps were giving them trouble. work in connection with preparing byâ€" law and issuing debentures was read. The fee will be approximately $65 and a motion by Stoneouseâ€"Noble, that they be engaged was carried. Earlier in the night the agreement with the Gov‘t., conditional to receiv-" ing the grant of $12,500, was read by | the Mayor, and he asked the Council| to familiarize themselves with it, that , they might correctly answer all enâ€" quiries. A communication from the‘ Dept. of Public Health was also read, which was a mandatory order for the installation of waterworks system in the interests of public health of the townl. A communication from Long and Dely, Toronto, Solicitors, re legal men are at work excavating for the mains, and about a hundred are on unemployed list at Clerk‘s Office. After considerable discussion over the matter, a mction by Bellâ€"Whitmore, carried, that the Board of Works, town clerk, contractor and engineer, be a committee re who should be emâ€" ployed. _ The action was evidently quite satisfactory to the audience, as they left the hall after motion was passed. Reeve Bell said many were com-l ing to him, and some doubt had been | expressed as to all local labor being engaged, but it was embodied in specifications that as many local men as possible be employed. Coun. Nobâ€" le mentioned that specifications al-' lowed contractor to use a ditcher if he wishes, but opinion was expressed that lscal job was too small and, ground not all suitable for its use. j As present, scarcely a dozen local | on, and he assured the gathering that more men would scon be engaged and probably week about, if too many deâ€" siring work, but he had nothing to say as to selection. Later in the evening, Mr Mcintyre, resident engineer for James, Proctor and Redfern, engineers, was called mains, had first applied to contractor and were taken on. He had seen stand pipe contractor and expected some could be employed there also. More would be engaged this week and he believe@ in giving married men the preference. Coun. Hunter stated the unemployâ€" ed had made a Gead set on the Board of Works on Thursday last, but he nor cther members had no authority to say what men should be engaged. The few at present at work digging to lay Unusual intcrest was manifested in Mcnday‘s Town Ccouncil session, when 50 or 60 of the unemployed men in town atterded, to learn what steps the Council was taking towards getâ€" ting them work on laying mains, etc, for the new waterworks system.

Perhaps more than any other man, Dr Endicott is posted on Missions, having travelled wdely throughout the various fields. Though not now in the active ministry, he is yet busily _engaged at the church offices and is & most pleasing speaker. _ The gicat challenge is to win the world for God, stated the speaker, and his text was from Isaiah 21: 11, 12: "Watchman, what of the Night ?" The prophets of Israel taliked to the people honestly and sincerely. _ The message to us is that night will last just as long as men fail to dedicate themselves and their lives to Christ. "Wlat of the night in Africa" he quostioned. Africa‘s two dark nights were slavery and paganism. Slavery is now over and the morning has come. He graphically Gescribed the great slave trails across the desert, where all weaklings died like flies. He contrasted the darkness of night of a pagan village with the totally new world of a Christian village with schools, churches and family worship.
