Entortaired Knox Church Choir ‘The choir and a few friends from Kno: United Church were royally entertained at the home of Mr= and Mrs ‘Thos. Beli, Glenelg, on Friday cvening last. This was no choir reâ€" hearsal affair but a real social night, of which the guests took full adâ€" vantage. That some of the diverâ€" sions brought forth considerable talâ€" ent from the members, was evident tfrom â€"the responses â€"received, A tasty lunch was served near midâ€" night, after whch the host and hostâ€" ess were "good fellowed", coupled with a vote of thanks for their hosâ€" pitality . Rocky Saugeen W. M« S. The June meeting of the of Rocky Saugeen Church, regret at his departure and hoping for his success in his new venture. Rev. W. H.

All friends ‘OPICS:â€" of Toronto, will Friday, June 19, Bloor St. entâ€" of the Club are Gems of thought from Mr Lisâ€" mer‘s Address "A child‘s drawing has the courage torn of ignorance. He is fresh, does not know too much. _A child is all artist." Truly the audience sat at the feet of a master and no doubt carried home the thought emphasized by Mr Lismer, that while we worthily laud the artistic productions of the Italâ€" ian, Polish and children of other naâ€" ticnalities, we should realize more fully that our own Canadian Angloâ€" Saxon children are, too, highly posâ€" sessed of creative ability . Simple Simon by a boy of 10 years was a revelation to all of the child‘s power of expression. The waterfall by a lad of 9 years was among the many outstanding productions shown. Fc:lowing the portrayal of childâ€" ren‘s work came pictures of the celâ€" ebrated artistsâ€"Robert Holmes, Micâ€" ael Angelo, Turner and cthers. ‘Woest Wind‘ by our own Tom Thomson was the concluding picture and the speaâ€" ker paid a fine tribute to him, whom he described as having absorbed so well his own environment. "Child life is a spark waving in the wind, Without encouragement the spark goes out." Of special interest was the portrayâ€" al by a child of the first verse of "Noel." In the foreground _ stood shepherds, little people, (the child‘s idea) well cloaked for the cold of the night and standing with bowed heads â€"above, his image of the Herald anâ€" gels, child faces, the remainder of form tucked up in the billowy clouds. "A picture has to live in the heart of man before it becomes art." "Art is mankind talking to itself" "Great pictures are always simple" "There is a lack in schools in feelâ€" ing that this is the most beautiful country God ever made." "People of our period should look witi the eye of Beauty instead of the eye of Possessedness." Mr Lismer‘s subject "Child Art in Canada‘ was dealt with in a 15 min. talk preceding an illustrated lecâ€" ture, the slides showing the creative art of children ranging from 4% to 13 years. Mr Lismer describes his work as experimenting with childâ€" ren in Art. He has a class of 500 children drawn from the city schools, in the Art Gallery each Saturday for 3% hours. _ Here the children have the freedom of the Gallery unâ€" der his supervision to express themâ€" selves. The Art Gallery of Toronto, by the way, extends assistance to the teachers throughout the Province upâ€" cn request. Last Friday night an early lead asâ€" sumed by the Factory was sufficient to nose out the Bachelors, who finâ€" ished strong with8 runs, the last 3 frames.

At their lodge meeting on Monday night, Grey Lodge I.O.O0,F. unaniâ€" mously sanctioned the purchase of the former McKechnie store building for the sum of $4800. _ It is a wellâ€" built structure 100 feet in length and 26 wide, and the second floor, now vacant, will make ideal lodge rooms, for which purpose it will be renovaâ€" ted, at a cost of from $700 to $900. E. F. Graff & Co., merchants, occupy the main floor and their tenancy will be continued under the new ownerâ€" ship. It is a forward step for the local Oddfellows lodge, which having grown considerably in strength, finds the present accommodation rather limited and they are to be congratuâ€" lated upon acquiring such a valuable and suitable property. The country to Wiarton is too well traversed by citizens of Durham and near Durham to comment upon, and the interest for us lay in what was beyond. From Wiarton to Toberâ€" mory, registered 54% miles, and inâ€" cluded in this were a few extra for the up and down "shoot the chute" en route. Around Lion‘s Head the land is beautifully level and the type of farm buildings typifies a healthy ecndition among the farmers.

The popular suppoâ€" sition is that cnee north of Wiarton, you enter the wilderness of Judaca, the natives live on "locusts and wild honey." We have visited the district and find the citizens as good as we deem ourselves to be and just as kindâ€"perbaps a little kinder and comeatâ€"able.
