Far be it from us to discourage the growth of any other part of an hotel. There are hotels that are a joy upon the earth, where a man pays his bills as cheerfully as he did the person who married him, where you can't and the landlord unless you hunt In the kitchen, where the servants glide around like angels of mercy, where the beds lit a man's back like the feathers on a goose. and where the victuaia taate Just as though your wife, or your mother. had fried them.

Mouser, " ter a lengthy and unetul life, in which he fearlessly and well nerved his God and his fellow men. Hits health had been falling for some months, the death of his life part- ner last October being a severe blow, and the last week or two. he had been bedfut. The late Mr Renwick was born in Dumfrieshire. Scotland in 1852 and when a mere child ot three years. crossed the ocean to Canada with his parents. The family settled at Port Credit and later went to Georgetown, where his father had a blacksmith and waggon shop. Later they moved to Fergus. and in the summer of 1860, came to Dur. ham. Their Srtrt home here was on Elgin St. South; then for years they lived in a. house " corner of Garafraxa and Saddler sis. opposite the present Ford Garage. He attended the frame public school just north of the Public Lib. rary, and school days over, went to work for a farmer for " a month with homemade clothes provided. He attended Hampden chunch. Rev. Patrick Greig then being the minia- ter. He next worked a short time with Andrew Lind-say in Glenelg. and in 1866, the year of the Fenian Raid, was working in Smith’s tan- nery. He could well. recall the ex- citement prevailing " that time when word came from Owen Sound that the Fenian: were going to ctme with a gunboait; the summons for the soldiers to prepare, and the commandeering of a. waggon to con- vey them to Owen Sauna. When 14 years old, he went to work in Shield‘s sawmill ' Yeovil, rented by Mr. Romaine. The family eventually went to Holstein. then moved to Dromore district about 1870. There he worked tor three years with a Mr McCarty, with whom he finished his trade as a wag- on maker. At the end of three years he purchased McCarty's business. and started making nearly every- thing a man would need-waggons, pieizhs. washtubs. churns, window sash, doors. etc. m the year 1871, his mill was burned, but he prompt- ly rebuilt, and continued in the mill. ing business at Dromore until " teen years ago. when he sold out to Mr Thos. Johnston. THE LATE nonenf azumcx Mr Renwi'ck in 1875 chose as his bride Jane Beetle. daughter of the late James and Agnes Hastle, who proved a loyal helpmate to him for over sixty years. until her 7 death four months ago. On New Year's day, 1936, they celebrated their di- mond anniversary in Durham, sur- rounded by their family and friends. The family of six sons and two daughters are: Robert of Durham; James. teacher at Westlock, Alta; Hugh, of the Civil Berviee, Ottawa; Lewis, Manager of the Bank of Commerce, Palmerston; John of Toronto; Dr Edgar, dentist of Lake- fle1d; Miss Agnes, " home; Mrs P. C.. Luster (Jean) ot Vegrevllle, Alta Also surviving are one sister. Mrs Norris (Eliza) of Toronto and four brothers: William and Christopher of Toronto, Walter of Irma. Alberta, James of Dakota. After giving up business in Dre more. Mr Renwick retired from ae. tive life, and devoted much of his time in spring and summer months to his tine gsrden there. Eight years ago they moved to Durham, which has since been their home, and here also he cultivated a. splendid garden. TORONTO ed mun.

Our pastor gave his message on Sunday from the scripture pit-sage, “Grace be with all them that love our Lord Jeans Clu‘ist in sincerity." Ephesians 6:24. He apoke of Pope Pius of his passing and " some length of Father Cabot who labored faithfully for years among the lndl- ans at Cape Croker and was loved and respected by them and by those of other denominations who came in contact with him. Mr Kaye knew him personally, and of his great love and service to these humble people. Perhaps we are partial to our own denominations but let us not forget the words of Jesus._“0ther sheep l have whleh are not of this told" and ct His rebuke to ttte.diaeip1ets "He that is not against me is on my part" when they turned “my the man who followed not with them. God who knows the hearts of men is the judge and He makes no mis. takes. There were a number of bars and girls present on Sunday and the milieu of Mr Kaye's talk for them was "Helping one another." Mr and Mrs David Mush“ visited on Sunday with Mr and Mrs Wm. Marshall. We spent Sunday evening very mount» at the McAliater home. The meetng ot the WI.M.S. was in the church on Wednesday after- 1100, Feb 8th with an attendance of 13. Opened by singing hymn 376 and Mrs Marshall, Sr. led in prayer. Mrs Harold Mrataon lead the scrip- ture lesson. The study was on India. Mrs It, J. Marshall read of its vaat p:rcu1aticn and different forms of re- ligions, but Christianity is increas- ing faster than the population. Mrs Wilton read of the mighty Christian inf1ttettee pervading this great land. Mrs Harold Watson read of tho Bhils and of their crude and humble ways of living Mrs Wilfred Peter read of typical happenings in an Indian village. Miss Margaret Mitr- shall read of the atrange cuatoms of the people. The roll call was an. swered ty scripture verses on "Serve." Decided that we eootribute for a Lite Membership this year. Mia: T.
