I Mr Ernie Brown,. who has begn a resident of Walkerton for many years and who was head of the roted musical organization known as Ernie Brown‘s Orchestra, moved on Yandav with his wife and four childâ€" Che Buri C. Nichol‘s. Pivzer for In a minute or so, Bowman Jamie-i son motoring to Wilder‘s Lake was on hand, having seen the blaze leaving town. He with neighbors â€" who~ soon srrived, saw the barn and contents were doomed, but saved a small shed about 15 feet south west of the barn by regularly dousing the roof with pailfuls of water. Beâ€" tween the barn and house is anâ€" other shed used as a workshop* and blacksmith shop, containing many tools, and closer to the house, the garage. Fortunately the night was calm with little wind. Had the wind blownâ€" southâ€"westerly, it is unlikely that sheds, garage and residence could bave been saved. By five or six o‘clock the barn was in ruins, with ouly the stone _ foundation standing, but fire still burned all day within the stone walls. The silo to the north was badly cracked. The Patterson children feared their pony was burned, as it sometimes was put in stable overnight, but luckâ€" ily it was left in the field. ‘The barn was 60 X 75 feet with 22 foot posts, the largest along the 2nd con., and ore of the finest in Scuth Grey. It was built in 1904, and reâ€"roofed with arrowlock shingles only four years ago. When W. B. Patterson‘s . fine large barn on 2nd con. Glenelg went up in flames in the early hours of this Wednesday morning, there was the greatest loss of any conflagraâ€" tion in this community for some years. Such a start did it get about 2 a. m. that it was all ablaze when first seen, and as well the stock, season‘s crop, and many of his implements were destroyed. 16 young cattle, 2 good. horses about 12 years old, 2 cows, 3 pigs, 35 hens and about 25 roosters suffered a terrible death in the flames. ‘The season‘s crop in the wellâ€"filled barn included 30 tons of hay, 75 tons straw, 200 bus. wheat, 700 bus. oats, 100 bus. rye and about 100 Ibs. Mr. Patterson is unaware of the| cause of the fire, and does not! think spontaneous combustion likelz,‘ while possible. About two o‘clock Mrs Patterson was awakened by a| crackliny sound, and looking out thci window, _ everything was bright.; Thinking the heuse must be afire, shei aroused her hbusband and the childâ€" ren. Dressing quickly as possible,l they soon beheld their barn ablaz-! ing, not the house. _ They rushedi some 200 feet to the barn, but it was too late to get close to atâ€"| tempt to rescue the stock. l The implements consumed were the owner‘s threshing machine, binâ€" der, seed drill, waggon, roller, corn scuffler, gang plow, seed cleaner, culâ€" tivator, hammer mill, litter carrier, grain chopper, Ford engine, and many â€" smallâ€"articles. Barn, Stock Crop Destroyed by Fire Insurance carried on barn â€" and contents will cover considerable, but not by any means close to the total loss which will approximate $8000 or $10,000. Much sympathy is felt for Mr Patterson and family in their heavy loss at this season. His mink ranch with 95 animals, to the west of house and some distance from the barn, escaped any damage. The usual weekly meeting of the Voluntary Aid of the Red Cross took place on Tuesday afternoon in the basement of Queen St United Church with 56 ladies present. . ‘The work on szarments for British war victims is proceeding at a good pace. ~There were also knitters on hand , and several of the ladies spent a busy time at the quilt. Letters from sevâ€" cral of our boys were read, all exâ€" pressing appreciation for sweaters and socks received. Some tickets on the bed set, which is on display in Mrs. Myles‘ window, were sold.

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 10, 1940 WITH WHICH IS INCORPORATED THE HOLSTEIN LEADER Msm Bet prtrarty Appearing in Owen Sound police court last Friday because their child ren refused to salute the flag or sing the Naticnal Arthem in several rural schools, five parents pleaded not guilty to charges of advocating ©r defending the policies of an illeg: al organization, the Jehovah Witâ€" ness sect. These charges were laid as a result of investigations by R. C. M. P. «Langille and Jefferies, and the authority of the Attorney General was filed by Crown Attorney Birnie, with Magistrate Spereman in cach action. _ After hearing the eviâ€" dence the Magistrate reserved judgâ€" ment for a week. 5 "She told me," declared the offiâ€" cer, that she was a Witness of Jeâ€" hovah and that the children were acting on her instructions." Three actions were against Keppel residents, one against a Derby tp. farmer and the first tried was aâ€" gainst Mrs. Olive Noble, who lives two miles north of Durham. R. C. M. P. Langille testified that he bad visited the Noble home on Septem:â€" ber 17th as a result of complaints that the two children had refused to sing the National Anthem in the Bentinck and Glenelg School No. 2 He had gone to Mrs Noble‘s home to inquire why. Mrs Noble told the officer at that time that she had been on the road as a Witness of Jehovah before the organization _ was declared illegal, and she herself under cross examinâ€" ation, admitted having. distributed literature of the Judge Ruiherford sect. Nh Cns * "I have told them," the accused is alleged to have said, "thait thoey carnot owe allegiance to two kinzs. They must obey the laws of the King, Christ, and not those of the king on earth." Called to the stand in her own| defence, Mrs Noble denied that she had ever been a member of any soâ€" ciety or organization. "I am a folâ€" lower of Christ and every true Christian is a witness of Jehovah." Asked why she bhad instructed her, children not to sing the National Anthem, Mrs Noble stated, "I did-; nt think it was in obedience to (lod‘s commands to sing God Save the King." Questioned further, she stated that the Bible told her to| pray in secret, and to pray for the‘ Kingdom of Christ, and to sing the National Anthem was to pray in public and to pray for victory over the enemies of the King. | Judgment Reserved on Jehovahk Witnasses Little Business "The enemies of the King of England." she stated, "are not necâ€" cessarily God‘s enemies." Evidence in the other actions was all somewhat similar to Mrs Noble‘s.
