Turkeys Durham proved ‘conclus.vely that they are the class of Saugeen Box Lacrosse League last Friday night, when they applied the whitewash brush to Hanover‘s aggressive crew, the sceond strongest team, by an 8â€" 0 score. The visitors after their deâ€" cisive win at home on Tuesday, came over to again put it over Durham, bringing a good crowd of rooters, but it wasn‘t their night. Durham was right back in form, the addition of "Yank" McEachnie in goal and Howâ€" ard McDonald on defence, strecgthâ€" ened the team‘s defensive play, and Hanover was unable even to pierce it. It was the first shutâ€"out in locâ€" al box lacrosse and Durkam had to be "there" to accomplish it, before the biggest crowd of the season. It was about the roughest setâ€"to of ; the seascn as well, with both teams | indulging in the swatfest. Several ; scraps broke out and this was exâ€"| pected after the rough passage Durâ€"| ham received in Hanover three days previous. _ The referees, Devlin of Hanover and Bert McDonald, Durâ€" ham, penalized players for major inâ€" fractions orly: had they ruled them of for every offence, at times there might have been no game in progâ€" ress. With only one minute left to play in the third period, Hanover team suddenly left the playing field, and> refused to continue. They had had enough, saw no hope of victory and the game was over. Durham scored four in first and four more in second frame: Alton, Harsver goalie, made some wonderâ€" ful stops throughout, particularly in‘ third period, which he held scoreless against the Durham bombardment. l ney, among them C. C Middlebro, I. B. Lucas, Jr., Markdale, a member of the firm of Lucas, Henry & Lucas, and C. S. Cameron, who held the poâ€" sition previous to Mr Herry‘s ap pointment last June. Arglican Young People Reâ€"organize. The Anglican Young People‘s Assoâ€" ciation met on Monday night under the presidency of Miss Florence Kress. A very interesting program was proâ€" vided, consisting of: a piano solo by Miss Olelda Hahn, a reading by Miss Emily Hunt, a quartette by Misses Alma Kress, Rita Graham, Mary Firth Jean Rowe. Mrs E. Hayes presided at the piano for community singing, musical games and contests, after which the election of officers for the ensuing year took place. The followâ€" ing were elected: President, Miss Emily Hunt; Viceâ€"President, Clarence Elvidge; Secretary, Miss Alma Kress; Treasurer, Don. Knight. About twenâ€" tyâ€"five were present. Refreshments were served and completed a very enjoyable evening, Durham Quashed Hanover‘s Hopes by 8â€"â€"0 Defeat The short, snappy passing game of the Durham home was effective in bafffing the visitors on many occaâ€" sions. Hanoveralso displayed some nice team play, but could not overâ€" come the rugged defence of McDonâ€" ald, Graham or Kress, with McEachâ€" is right on the job in the nets. Crown Attorney W. D. Henry‘s name is receiving some prominence in the press, over the fact that heis considered as one of the eligibles to fill th place of the late Judge H. P. Innes of Dufferin Co. Should he reâ€" ceive this honor, there are several in line for his position of Crown Attorâ€" Durham has still two league games with Walkerton, then will again meet Hanover in the playâ€"offs, when for the good of the game and the players themselves, strict outside referees should be in charge, Hanover: goalâ€"Alton: defense, Muâ€" ter and H Boettger: rover.

H. Leonard, singing evangeâ€" lists . Mr Torrie presents the oldâ€" time religion in a vivid and forceful way. He holds the rapt attention of both old and young from first to last. His lantern slides are beautifully colored and clear and enhance his gospel message. Mr Leonard‘s singâ€" ing is an inspiration. There is no ostentation about him, he is just a mocern, energetic, gospel singer of pleasing personality. Tuesday evenâ€" ing, Mr Torrie‘s theme was Mount Moriah and Mount Calvary and emâ€" phasized the voluntariness of the sacrifice of Christ for the sin of the world. Evangelistic Meetings in Baptist Church Mr Torrie announced that he had a special message for the High and Public School students on Friday night and on Sunday his topics will be: 11 a. m., "What the Christians of Durham are" and 230 p. m. Sunday, "Choceing a Wife". 7 p,m., "Whata Woman Did.". Everyone is cordially welccme to all these services. Hampden United Church Holds Anniversary those of war. _ _ & It was a well thought out address and fitting to the occasior. The clergy of the town were all present and Rev. W. H. Smith conâ€" ducted the service, Rev. Mr Hayes reading the scripture passage and Rev. B. D. Armstrong leading in prayer. The choir of Knox Church rendered as an anthem a commemorâ€" ative _hymn from the new United Church ‘ hymnal, "O Valiant Hearts." Remembrance Day Obâ€" served in Knox Church Such were some of the closing thoughts that Rev Walter C. Almack brought before his large audience in Knox Church, on the occasion of the annual Veterars‘ service on Armis tice Dayâ€"to be henceforth known as "Remembrance Day."~ Mr Almack claimed that fighting for a principle is a commendable thing, How easy it is to be a paciâ€" fist! The Western world was eager to acclaim President Hoover‘s proâ€" posed moratorium offer, but warâ€" seething dissatisfied Europe did not see it in the same light. There are too many old sores to be avenged : Hungary does not even observe Armâ€" istice Day. The Versailles Treaty of 1918 became only a pieâ€"slicing affair where each nation looked after their own gains. To gain the universal Brotherhod of Man, we should cultiâ€" Rev. Mr Aimack and Mras W.

On Surday and Monday last, the members and adherents of that pretâ€" ty liitle rural church, Hampden, were marking the passing of time in thei cycle of years of service to the com munity, by an Anniversary occasion The weather for November, was or unusually good behavior and was an important factor in making the o casion a success. »â€" This charge is faithfully supplieA each Sunday afternoon by Rev W.H.

Many thought it was a mistake to bring the Elgar Male Quartette of Waterloo back to Durkam, aftertwo lprevioua appearances within a year. 'But they came, and any vision of a mistake vanished into thin air when | the program was over. In sacred or i secular, their numbers were equally | pleasiug and what is more. they have a sense of the finer things of life, in what should. emenate from a pulâ€" pit. Knox United Church auditorium where ‘the concert was held, was three quarters full and we have yet to hear one adverse word about the artists and assisting artists, The latâ€" ter were Ruth Bechtel Whiting, reaâ€" der and Anna Hymmen, organist and }accompanist. Miss Hymmen‘s art in ‘in her accompanying was freely comâ€" ! mented upon and at close she gave lan organ number, Handel‘s "Hallelâ€" ‘ujah Chorus" which left the audience longing for more. Mrs Whiting is a reader of much charm and her selecâ€" tiors took of the unusual. The majorâ€" ity of her numbers savored of war and its tributary effects on the peoâ€" ble who braved all, as well as those who never came back,. Approaching Armistice Day, it allowed room for | thought. Her lilting rendition of "‘Robert of Lincoln" was most birdâ€" ‘like and the audience lived in â€" the irealm of feathered songsters for a time. $T.

The personnell of quartet as an+ nounced in last week‘s Review, in Cuet, sclo or four part numbers, was without exception, strong in all secâ€" tions. Durham audience is no excepâ€" tion in preferring old favorites, such as ‘Nearer my God to Thee‘, ‘Drink .0 me orly with thine eyes‘, ‘Rock of Ages‘, ‘John Peel‘, ‘Far Away in the South‘, etc. A negro spirituelle ‘Op en up the Gates of Glory‘ in words and rhythm, depicted the characterâ€" istics of the colored race. ~ Rev. W. H. Smith, as chairman, fourd his duties light and in an interâ€" mission period, dwelt a short time on the French word ‘Encore‘ and what it conveys in our language. Mr Mistele also spoke a few words, expressing his pleasure in being among former friends. At the close, a few of the Ladies‘ Aid members, under whose auspices it was held, served refreshâ€" ments in the basement to the artists previous to theirâ€" departure. Proâ€" ceeds were $74.00. Hampden ladies provided another of their popular fowl suppers, all for the modest sum of 35¢ and the laden table would have dene credit to Belâ€" shazzar‘s feast, Service in attending to the numerous wants of the inner man was splendid and the coffee was really hotâ€"which is more than can be said of some suppers.

He urged the need of "fighting the good fight" in the battle of life and reminded his auditors of the glorious protmmise awaiting those! who have "washed their robes, and ; made them white in the blood of the| Lamb."
