One of these pictures showed the burial service over Major E. L. Knight, so well known to Durhamites. Major Knight fell at the Battle of the Somme, and as the Star states, he had at least the dignity of a funeral accorded him, â€" something which many a brave veteran had not. Maj cr Knight was wedded to a Durkam girl, Miss Margaret Munro, who still The Merrymakers, an offshoot of the famous Dumbells concert troupe, held forth in the Town Hall last Friâ€" day before a fair crowd. Capt Plunkâ€" ett is in charge, but only one other of the renowned Dumbells, Pat Raftâ€" erty, is with the new show. Their performance was entertaining, but not up to the Dumbells standard.

Chusley Editer Suffers Stroke While playing checkers in his ofâ€" fice last Saturday evening, with a fr.end, Mr Wm. McDonald, the widâ€" ély known publisher of the Chesley Enterprise, was seized with a paraâ€" lytic stroke. He has improved semeâ€" what since and regained . consciousâ€" ness, but it is not yet certain that reâ€" covery will be complete. He is in his seventyâ€"finrst year and has been actâ€" ively engaged in his business and editorial duties. Along with many friencs in Grey County, the Review hopes to soon learn that he has sufâ€" fAciently recuperated to be around, and to again wield his facile pen. Thirt@en Reeves in 80 Years Coâ€"incident with the announcement that the (Grey county council was 80 years old on Tuesday, January 23, is the fact that the township council of Euphrasia was also organized 80 years ago and has functioned continâ€", vously since that time. Attention has been called to the record of Euphrasâ€"| ia with respect to its reeve as during the entire eighty years the townsh‘p has had but thirteen reeves, whicb; is bolieved to be a record for any | township in Ontario. In one or two instances the reeves were returned' for a second period, but there are just thirteen names on the list. I McrtymaKers Performed Eng. McKnight gets a billet doux Robert McKnight, engineer of Grey County, received more brick bats than bouquets from Chesley business men last week, when he failed to put & snow plow on the highway beâ€" tween Garner‘s Corner, north of Elmâ€" wood and Hanover, causing a blockâ€" ade after the recent snow storms. If this had been done, claims the Enterprise, cars could get through from Chesley to Owen Sound via Durham, and Dirstein‘s truck could get through to Torento with ship ments ¢of furniture and goods could have been delivered by truck to Chesloy merchants. Three Fing®rs Gashed Mr Thos. Lawrence, son of Mr and Mrs. Chas. Lawrence of Albert St., had three fingers of his right hand hand badly cut while working on his gasoline engine.

February is toâ€"day, half spent and if the last half be anything nearly as severe, the month may set a record cold average for fifty years Novâ€" ember and December last were both several degrees below average tempâ€" eratures for those months, January was slightly above, while February is apparently trying to surphass any former low record. Still Spring canâ€" not be far distant and a week of mild weather may come at any time now to break the monotony. Both Tuesday and Wednesday mornings have supplied the below zero brand of weather again, though wot with such severe cold as last week, when below zero temperatures were recorded every morning. Toâ€" day, Wednesday, it is more moderate and probs,. are milder toâ€"morrow, then cold again Friday. Saturday afternoon and Sunday were agreeably mild, but on Monday, the cold blasts returned, culminating in a blizzard Monday night which blocked all roads and even the main highways hereabouts for car traffic. several of our citizens reported readings of 45, 48, 50 degrees below, and one even 52. There are some wao doubt the reliability of these thermometers, but they must be acâ€" curate .or very close, as Walkerton reported 52 below and Hanover and Chesley 50, the same night,.

The respite came about 9 a.m., Saturday, when the mercury climbed to zero and steadâ€" ily rose. buve zero and last Thursday night, dropped to the record depths of 50 below.

Record Cold Wave For This Lecality _ Early Thursday morning last, the citizens in district of Albert and Sadâ€" dier Sts. were roused by fire alarm. Mr Innis, who had his living room at back of workshop, was firing up, when suddenly the fire got beyond control and the frame building was soon a mass of flames. Mr Innes had a lot of good tools in his workshop, some of which were rescued. The fire brigade was soon on the scene, but the fire had made too great headway to be able to save the building. Walkerton Meets Owen Sound With the thermometer registering 30 below last Thursday night, a car of Durham High School hockeyists went to Hanover to compete with the home school.
