Priceville Fair Favored With Fine Weather While driving to town in his bugâ€" gy last Saturday, Mr Campbell Watâ€" son was approaching the railway crossing at T. C. McGirr‘s, just east of Durham, when his horse took fright at the jigger on the track and broke loose, smashing buggy and harâ€" ness. The horse ran into town, entâ€" ering the blacksmith shop. Mr Watâ€" son was not seriously hurt and after having his wounds dressed at the hospital, he returned home next day. Walkerton had a masquerade bowâ€" ling tournment on Monday night last when 32 rinks competed. There were some beautiful costumes as well as comic . Comic won the day, comâ€" ing to Durham at that. Mr and Mrs. Thos Henderson, Miss Winnie Blyth and Mr Alex Hay, the party, were all attired in chanticler costume and made a Aecided hit with the judâ€" ges.

Wednesday saw ideal weather for Priceville‘s annual fall fair, but the day was perhaps too fine for the busy farmers, as the crowd was a little smailer than last year. When the fairs were held in October, Priceville usually experienced wet or cold days, Durham Takes the Cake Injured in Runaway Exhibits in the Hall were of splenâ€" d‘d quality, though rot so numerous as usual. In roots and vegetables, W. J. McDougall, T. MceDougall, H. Tucker and J. G. Whyte were the main exhibitors. Campbell Watson showed the most fruit, and Mrs W. Clark, Durham, the most flowers.

SEPTEMBER 22, 1932 Hampden‘s Native Son Preaches at 75th Annivers‘y Sunday and Monday, Sept. 18th and 19th, will long live in the memâ€" ory of the members and friends of Hampden Church. On these days, the 75th anciversary of the founding of the congregation was observed, and in response to invitations sent out by the present congregation, a great many of the former members and old friends came back for the cocasion. Many were the hearty handâ€" shakes both days, as those who had not seen each other, perhaps for sevâ€" eral years, coâ€"mingled and â€"recalled former days. Rev. E. O. Young, of Magnetewan, Addresses Crowded Congregations. Grand Reunion on Monday Evenâ€" ing . No more fitting choice of Anniverâ€" sary speaker could have been made, than that of Revy E. O. Young, now pastor at Magnetewan, Parry Sound District, _ Mr Young was born at Hampder, spent his early days there, and is the only minister to come from the membership of the congreâ€" gation. â€" To him, it was a delight to be back ard many of his fellowâ€"pionâ€" eers in the congregation were greatâ€" ly pleased to welcome him amongst them once more. At morning service, Mr Young preached a thoughtful sermon from Luke 12: 15: "Take heed and beâ€" ware of covetousness: for a man‘s life consisteth not in the abundance of things which he possesseth." This is an age of things: their number in cur homes has grown wonderfully ; the danger is we may covet what others have. Jesus tells us what life is not, not what it is. There is mind in the making of all things; in all work. Life consists of reason also; this gift shows us we are made in God‘s image and through it we disâ€" cover our relationship to God and understand Him better. Then imagâ€" ination is the foundation of progâ€" ress. Life has also brought to us memory, and without it, there can be no progress. _ God means we should enjoy these things He has given us in our natural life. But we also have a soul or spirit life, and God intends it should bring us near Him. _ God holds us responâ€" gible for the development of cur talâ€" ents. Faith is a great gift, the ladder by which we climb to heaven : the gift of hope bears us up in the strugâ€" gles of life, but Paul says the greatâ€" est gift is love. There are different kinds of loveâ€"that of the sexes, that of friends, and the Divine love, which is exemplified in the command "Love your enemies, do good to them that hate you." The Divine love loves allâ€"it is the hope of the church and of a better world ard is manâ€" kind‘s greatest need. MmMONDAY‘S SOCIAL TIME A NIGHT OF MEMORIES (On Monday evening, for the feast cof body and soul, all the Sunday atâ€" terdance was back. This was the night when ‘Reminiscence‘ (with a capital letter please) played such a large part in distinguishing this year from other anniversaries. _ It was in a sense, a quarter century‘s stockâ€" taking ard calling of the roll The past twenty five years have made great inroads en Hampden‘s church membership : the little _ cemetery near by claims some and more have left the section for other points. But as one former member put . it, "all those who have run away were back again‘ this night in question. It took the nature of an oldâ€"time reâ€" union. And what was more : the program was entirely "home brew", with the possible exception of the Hanover Victoria Quartette and Mr. Baritrop. However they have been coming to Hampden for years and are locked upon as part of the family. The teaâ€"meeting part of the Anniâ€" versary, could be summed up as "eat and be merry" and the tempting tabâ€" les were filled and refilled. Still they groaned with wonderful baking. At 8.15, the program in the auditorâ€" as the audience, they were working under difficulties. A Night of Reminisence With which is incorporated the Holstein Leader REV. E. 0. YOUNG â€" Rev. E. O. Young, the preacher of Sunday, was there with wife and sons ard in an exceedingly interestâ€" ing resume, told of the church life as he knew it in its earlier years. He remin‘sced, paying a high tribute to the founders of Hampden Church. They were men‘ of keen mentality, and the moral and religious welfare of the people ever â€" before them. He well remembered the old log church, built in 1857, on the line north of the present church and the people who attended same. He recalls a cerâ€" tain old cedar log, which the pioneer woman used as a bench. They came in their bare feet to this certain point, but previous to entering the House of the Lord, they donned the shoes and stockings. The people of that day were deâ€" pendent on no one for entertainment and amusements. They were a law untc themselves. The big days of the year were the church picnic, 24th May, Fall Show and Christmas. They were isolated from other centres and made their cwn good time. Mr. Young well remembers the singing of the earlier day. The majority of the men folk, through the coaching of a Mr Proctor, a singing master, could sing by note and independent of an instrument. The old Psalms tcok on new meaning a&s the melody rose from their lips. REV. A. L. BUDGE Rev. A. L. Budge, Hagersville, and a pastor at Hampden for eleven years, was the other reminiscent speaker. As the audience sat drinkâ€" ing in every word, the years rolled back to 1907,â€" and to the memberâ€" ship of the church at the time of the Golden Jubilee. _ Mr Budge gave a characier study of the outstanding men and women in the congregation at that period and it lost nothing in effect as it came from his lips. He These were the days when the axe, the saw and the oxen played an imâ€" portant part in clearing the land and the men of that day worked with an objective, viz: making a communâ€" ity where‘n the Kingdom of God should reign. at one of the sessions of the Guild, the Session, a wedding, or travelling the old bypaths with ‘Yankee," the faithful horse, who knew the people as well as he. The present generâ€" ation had much to live up to. _ His successor, Rev Mr McLean, found it impossible to get away and sent his greetings and also regrets with Mr. Budge. Time has dealt gently with this former pastor and he yet carâ€" ries that spirit or talisman that beâ€" friends him to all. was glad he had good heels on his, y boots to enable him to stand squareâ€" ;, ,., ly facing those rugged~people. He ;. ; would like once more to be present| "_~‘ There was for music, a mixture of sacred and secular: It was a pleasure to hear from the senior members as well. Messrs John Milligan, James Mather and Alex Cooper, Galt, were before the audience in a trio "The Tall Wife." Allan Gilmour, Burgessâ€" ville, a rising vocalist, and a grandâ€" son of a pioneer of the section, conâ€" tributed a solo, as did also his couâ€" sin, Miss Allan of Chesley: Mr Jas. ard Miss Helen Milligan gave a vioâ€" lin duet: there was a trio by Mrs. W G Henderson, Mrs Ranton, Stratâ€" ford, and their brother, James Park: solos, Wilfrid Anderson, Jas Park : Organ solo ‘Land of Hope ard Glory‘ by Allan Young, son of Rev and Mrs Young: recitation, Harry Barltrop, Harover. Rev Mr Smith called on Alex Cooâ€" per and John Whiteford, as former members to add their quota of greetâ€" ing at this time. Rev. Mr Smith gathered up the fragments and made a wonderful litâ€" tle closing speech, in which the keyâ€" note was the word "Remember." Memory gathers up the riches of the pastâ€"those who remember most are the richest. Out of the tall timbers the pioneers built for God and here (Continued on page 8.) Last week we told our readers aâ€" beut a $5 honcrarium that fell to Mr R. Burnett, for the good taste and skill shown in dressing a winâ€" dow for the Lux people. It appears the half has never been told of the qualities of this soap, merely as an incentive to window dressing, for two more of Durham‘s business peoâ€" ple have received a cheque for the same work, accompanied by such a letter as Mr Burnett received and which appeared in print last week. j Mr W. J. Vollett received an aâ€" ward of $7.50 and Mr T. M. Mcâ€" Fadden one for $5.00. \ IF the Lux people hand out prizes to all towns in Ontario in the same ratio as they have in Durham, monâ€" ey flows a little more freely in that corner of U. S, than it does in most places. It is a tribute to advertising and what it has done for this firm.

The slides were beautifully clear and his comment upon same, revealed. many new thoughts on Bibâ€" lical lore and history. Relating something of the history of Palestine, "The Cross Roads of the Empires of the East," he quickly sketched for his hearers an outline of the important events of history which have transpired there from the time of Abraham to the conquest by General Allenby in 1917 and the presâ€" ent conditions under the mandates of France and Gt.
