Her mother took her to task for such ac- tions, but the girl silenced her by this quotation: “ Whatever ye would that men should do unto you do ye even so unto them.” The old lady wilted. Memories of old were brought forcibly to mind. “ Where is your mother, Johnny ‘2" '° Playing-golf.” “ And your aunt ?” “ She is out on Mr bicycle.” “ And yoor sister '2” “ She is training for the hockey match.” “Then I’ll see your father please,” “ He can’t come down.

A llitte less than a year ago they ap- peared in the Methodist church to a packed house, every one of whom, as far as we know. was delighted with the entertainment. The announce- ment of their coming did not seem to elicit much comment, and we felt the attendance would be small. On the contrary, however, the hall was packed at eight o’clock, and for two solid hours the rapt attention 0! the audience gave the highest evidence of appreciation of the program. A musical entertainment was given here on Monday night last by the Canadian Jubilee singers, who were present under Methodist church auspices. Much has been said and written about travelling troops, and almost any aggregation can furnish testimonials of the most satisfying character.
