Bro. W. H. Whitâ€" church of Stratford, who was a faithâ€" ful worker with the Durham brethâ€" ren when resident here some 15 to 30 years agc. Mr Whitchurch was acceompanied by the master of Stratâ€" ford Lodge, by Bro Callighan and two others of that lodge. Following Mr. Dounelly on behalf of himself and wife, thanked all for their lovely gifts. The remainder of the evening was spent in card playing and daneâ€" ing.

Jlast Monday night the newlyâ€"elected officers for 1936 were ably installed by V.Ex. Comp., E. D. MceClocklin, assisted by Comp. Dr. Pickering, as follows: Zâ€"Dan McCallum; Hâ€"W. H. Kress; J.â€"M.

Following the cereâ€" mony, the companions repaired to the banquet room to enjoy an oyster supper, the retiring first prncipal, G. C. Webster, being the host. A social hour followed. Under auspices of the Young Peoâ€" ple‘s Society of Knox Church, this Society will not be embarrassed with excess finances, as a smaller aucâ€" ience than usual greeted the © troup, not through lack of appreciation, but from the fact that two or three othâ€" er public events were "on" this evenâ€" ing in question. | Both men were pinned under the wrecked truck with the driver, Mr. Dobson, escaping with a bad shakâ€" ing up and a few cuts, but Mr. | Thompson was serious‘y injured inâ€" ternally and rushed to the Hanover hospital. He was paralyzed â€" and while he became conscious, suffered a _ great deal before death came more than 24 hours later. He was in his 30th year, had lived all _ his life at Feversham and was an exemp lary young man in every _ respect. \ The funeral takes place at Feverâ€" sham Thursday afternoon. The troupe excel in part singing, though many of the audience felt they Cid not enunciate as clearly as former even‘ngs here. The old negro spirituels never become old as sung by their own race and the pep, rythm and feeling they injected in these numbers, were all enjoyed by the number there. The soprano of the troup had a remarkable lyric voice with great range and also was apâ€" preciated in a couple of readings by Paul Lawrence Dunbar, the colored poet. The numbers of the male quarâ€" tet were perhaps most enjoyed judgâ€" ing by the applause. The steam calâ€" liope number is a repeat number each year and never fails to be well reâ€" ceived . The caste was quite changed from last year‘s personnel with the excepâ€" tion of the pianist. The latter is gifted in being capable of brilliant piano playing and accompanying, as well as a baritone soloist. His renâ€" dition of the wellâ€"known classic, ‘Old Man River was dramatically sung. In this modern radio age, it is scarcely necessary to leave the home to hear good music and that is why so few concert companies are on the road toâ€"Gay. But the Southern Jubâ€" ilee Singers have a charm d‘stinctly their own and no radio can radiate the same atmosphere in listening to our colored friends sing and act.

Thompson of Feversham were taking a large truck load of logs to Hanover. Going down the Allan Park hill to the east of the bridge, one of the rear wheels came off. The truck skidâ€" ded across the bridge with the end of the axle digging a groove in the cement ficer about an inch deep. When the truck reached the west side of the bridge it turned across the roadway and turned upside down scattering the logs in all directions. ‘Feversham Man Fatally Iojured when .!

Mrs Brown had always been so generous of hospitalâ€" ity in giving her home for meetings and for work in the interests of the branch. She had been a regular atâ€" tendant at meetings and took an ‘active part in the program and in giving supplies. The audience stood and after silent prayer repeated â€" in unison "The Shepherd psalm", and: sang a verse of "Jesus Lover of My' Soul." | ‘ The December meeting of the Durâ€" § ham Branch of The Women‘s Instiâ€" | tute was held in the home of Mrs. 0 ‘E.

Voting , on the bylaw and taking care of the Gebentures follow. The speaker said 't that the taxes in the town had been f coming in slowly these past few _ years, but the status of the town , was very good. In a few words he . spoke brie‘ly of the work of the varâ€" j jous committees of the council. _ In â€" _ talking over relief problems he told â€" | the ladies of the best method any organization could adopt in assisting â€" in this work. Also they could help in / _var‘ous ways to beautify the town ! anc help in creating public opinion and civic pride. A vote of thanks ! was tendered Mayor Kress for his‘ instructive and interesting address. |« Mrs John Sharpe was convener of the group responsible for this splenâ€" did program and supper. Carol singing by the choir and "Luther‘s Cradle Song", sung by Miss W. A. Blyth were much enjoyâ€" ed. A Polish carol, and one of the 15th century were also sung. In the period for business, plans were made for Christmas cheer; a member from each church was apâ€" pointed to see their choir re the singing cf carols arounc the Christâ€" mas community tree on the Sunday cvening before Christmas, and a comâ€" mitiee was appointed for relief work. Mis J. M. Burgess, delegate to the convent‘on in Toronto gave a report of the meetings, the banquet and the dress parade all held in the Royal York Hotel. Miss _ Appleby, speaking on ‘Historical â€" research‘ urged that histories of old homeâ€" steads, mills, an¢ orchards in their districts be wr‘tten and preserved. Other speakers‘ addresses upon which Mrs. Burgess spoke were Dr. Clarâ€" ence Hincks, Dr. Christie and Miss McDiarmid.
