WELL-KNOWN PUBLISHER VISITS DURHAM FRIENDS There breezed into the Review or.. tice the other day, a well tret-ttp man, we should judge in his early sixties, who wanted to see the Editor of the Review. We could not put a. name to him, but soon Hugh Maclean of the famous Marleen Publishing Co., of Toronto, had us at our ease. While 'Hugh' admits that his brother 'Jchn n.' gets all the publicity, that is no reason for saying that Hugh cannot hold his own with the bestot the Maciean‘s. He simply ran away tram business in Toronto, which he (unll'lldv‘ll is tar from good.. "In fact. the bail”! is the busiest man there,," he said. Like his brother, John B., he has a great reverence for his peo- ple. now lying in cemeteries at Dur- ham and other points. His special interest in Durham cemetery lies in the fact that his uncle and aunt, Rev and Mrs Charles Cameron are buried here and he was a visitor to their graveside. With his brother, John B., they have completely remodelled the burial place of their father and moth- iiht Butt er. at East Puslinch,---Rev. and Mrs. Andrew Maclean, now ot saluted memory. Miss Fanny Mockler was one of his earliest teachers here and he made a short call on this now frail lady, who started so many of Durham's early students on Educa- tion's pathway. when she conducted a. private school. We were pleased to renew our friendship with the Mac- lean family and think this certain member of it might tear away from business more frequently. Durham can offer him many interesting side- lights. MRS J. A. GRAHAM A PASSENGER TO TORONTO Mr and Mrs David G. Morrison, of Forest Hill Village, Toronto, cameto the home of her parents, Mr and Mrs John A. Graham Sunday. On Monday they returned with Mrs M's mother, Mrs Graham, in her invalid chair, tMV companied by her nurse, Miss Mar- garet Leeson. Mrs Graham stood the trlp in an excellent way and will spend a week or two under new con- dltions and environment. We do not realize scarcely what this change means to a shut-in, as is Mrs Gra- ham. who was six months old, died at Ho- tel Dieu Hospital, Windsor, Thurt day last, where he had been receiv- ing treatment for ttve weeks for bow- el Infection.

Wilson again Northern League President Tuesday ot this week the annual meeting of the Northern Hockey League was held in Palmerston, those present from Durham being Pres. Harvey Wilson, R. L. Saunders and J. B. Dumeld. For the ensuing year, President H. W. Wilson, Durham; Vice-President Ross McKenzie. Paisley; Secretary E. L. Buckley, Southampton and the Treasurer, F. Edwards, Palmerston, were all returned by acclamation. The Executive elected are: J. H. Sanders, Erin; Harry Fair. Arthur; J. Blacknrd, Harriston; J. C. McDon- ald, Chesley. New rulings made were that no eertiliaates are to be issued after Feb. lat, and that defence ot any protest must be entered in proper form and $25 tee posted on all protests. Last winter Milverton simply made an ex- planation, and entered no defence on the Durham protest. Had this ruling been in force then, Durham might have been N.H.L. champions. Fergus Seniors won from Durham in Lacrosse By long odds the beet lacrosse ex- hibition seen here in many moons. was last Friday's game when Fergus Seniors, recently beaten out by Mim- ico for the Ontario championship by 1 goal only, were secured to give Durham exponents of the national game a real battle. They proved too much tur the locals, winning out by 11 to 5, though Durham held themto a 2---2 tie at half time. Fergus brought up all Senior play- ers, and ot the ten tlve also played Junior lacrosse all season and one Juvenile. It was regretted that Joe Bergin and Russell, the two Fergus members of the team who partleipat- ed at the Olympic games, were un. able to come, but the team was little, if any, weaker by their absence. The visitors on the whole, were a. heavier crew than Durham and used their weight effectively. They play aciean and strong defensive game and their short, snappy passes were a, treat to watch. Ritchie, their 16 year old youth at centre, is a finished little pcrrcrmer, while Jack Bergin, Day Richardson and Simpson were also br.:liant both cnt attack and defence. Durham tor the tirst two periods displayed surprising strength against one of the best teams in the game, leading 1-0 at quarter time and hold- ing the count to 2-2 at half. Dur- ham again led at Mart of 3rd frame. when Becker ran in on the nets to Continued on Page 4 The Moderation We of Ontario, m other words the friends ot the li- quor interests, have been active in endeavoring to have legalized the sale of beer and wine in hotels, and have taken a straw vote of the industrial population throughout the province, i. P., factory employes. Though Premier Henry refused such, the League has addressed an open letter to the Premier, ostensibly to show how strongly the workingman. is in favor of his beer and wine. In the list. of cities and towns published in the open letter, the factory straw vote shows M per cent. in favor ot beer and wine sale and 14 per cent. against. Durham is not included in publish- ed list, but the ballots were sent to Durham Furniture factory, and we understand the local vote showed a majority of 10 or 15 for present Govt. Control law, rather than tor beer and wlne open sale. Mr and Mrs Chas. Hallway. ot Blythe's Corners.

The HaiL'days were returning home from Durham this night, and had in the back of their buggy a 50 pound sack of flour and in front other groc- eries. Shortly after turning in on the Varney s'deroad, they were hail' ed by a car coming oft the highway, wishing to know the road to Durham. This, the Hallways thought. asome- what strange question. but gave the directions and went on. One of the party ot the car got out to ask the question and the other occupant was not watched. When the Hull- day's reached home, they (mud they were short their not of hour. It MINUS A BAG OF FLOUR WHILE DOING A KINDNESS WANT BEER AND WINE SALE DURHAM, THURSDAY.

In a. copy of a statement which has already appeared respecting the Ex- change it said: ‘that the question of making these charges was thorough- ly considered. also that many muni- cipalities have paid these accounts in full without comment: others are making inquiries as to whether the amount is chargeable to the year's operations or to surplus account while yet others have raised various ob- jections to the charge.
