Ross‘ address in the Town Hall, sponsored by the Lake of the Wods Milling Co., to boost their product, Five Roses Flour. As well as the address, Mrs Ross was here to judge the entries in bread and cake made from this product. There was a tempting array of both edibâ€" les on display in the lower hall and Mrs. Ross had no light task in tastâ€" ing, testing and judging the merits of the several entries. BREAD 1st, Mrs Kenneth Park, R. R. 2, Hanover. 2nd, Mrs J. W. Wilson, Durham 3rd, Mrs Jas. Lewis, Holstein 4th, Mrs A. C. McDonald, Durham, The prizes went to the following ladies : Mrs. J. S.

O. D. E. Chapter were sponâ€" sors for this eventintown and Mrs. Ross was pleased to present the Regent, Miss M. Hunter, with a cheqâ€" ue for $25, for the interest the Socieâ€" ty have taken in the event. During the afternoon, solos .were rendered by Mrs T. M. McFadden and Miss W. Blyth: piano solo by Mrs W. H. Kress and a piano duet by Mrs Padâ€" field and Mrs Stauffer. Tea was serâ€" ved in lower hall at close and the entries were viewed with much inâ€" terest. & With the stormy day prevailing and a general feeling of satisfaction with the present Board, only a small atâ€" tendance of the electors of township were on hand. No contentious quesâ€" tions arose, and the gathering disâ€" persed about 3.30. Silver comports and bread knives were the favors to prizeâ€"winners. Dundalk and Durham were the onâ€" ly two points in Grey mapped out in the contest and the lady standing highest in these two centres is also the recipient from the Company, of the choice of 12 different articles of silverware. Bentinck Council Returned Without Opposition An _ acclamation _ was accorded Bentinek‘s rulers at Friday‘s ‘ nominâ€" ation at Lamlash, as predicted in last week‘s Review . The slate for 1934 will thus again be: D. J. Macâ€" Donald, reeve; Geo. Magwood, depâ€" uty reeve: Chas. Bailey, Fred Torry, John Wells, Councillors. CcoUuNnTyY PRIZE WINNERS Bread, Mrs E. G. Lucas, Dundalk Cake, Mrs J. S. Meliraith, Durham Mrs. Ross will speak at 43 cenâ€" tres in Ontario before this contest is over, as well as judging the varâ€" ious entries. In an intervew wth the ‘Review,‘ she stated that the quality exhibited in Durham was of a high average, particularly that of the cakes. She judges the bread and cake on the following basis : 1.

Palatability The RBurhim Reix. Fred Torry, Robt. McCaslin, Jno. Weidendorf, Mark Mervyn. A SALE | _ The evening was div.ded into ‘three sections. The first section was dovoted to spirituels and sung as onâ€" | ly the colored race know how : the | second section were ind‘vidual numâ€" bers by each member and the third section a plantation act in costume. It would be hard to say which was | the most enjoyable. Mr Shaver, the manager, announced each number, | describ‘ng the ‘brushâ€"arbor churches |of the southland which their colored }!or@!athers erected _ for themselves | following the emancipation of the | slaves. Here they gathered to worâ€" | ehip God in their own way and with the only means at their disposal,â€" | their own voices. Scme of these toâ€" | @ay, are handed to them as a legacy, | such as "Little David play on your | Harp," "Swing on the Golden Gate", | "Hard Trials, great Tribulations", ‘“Where the Saints go Marching in." M‘ss Lyle, contralto, is the possesâ€" sor of a voice of wonderful range | and power and her rendition of ‘Don ; Fatale‘ from Verdi‘s opera ‘Don Carâ€" | lo‘, especially showed the tonal qualâ€" ities of her voice, The encore brought | that _ appealing southern â€" classic, \ "Can‘t yo‘ heah me callin‘ Caroline‘, ; which to our idea was perfectly sung. | A male quarte‘te rendered two novel | selections, ‘Goblins will get you‘ by | Parks and "Calliope" by Shaver. The | last number was an effect to produce lthe sounds of a showboat train and lwas a wonderful exhibition of versaâ€" | tility as well as singing. The personnel of the group are Miss Alberta Pope, soprano ; Miss Ernestine Lyle, contralto; Jas Stokes, first tenor; Jas. Shaver, second tenâ€" «or and manager: Daniel Davies, first bass and accompanist: Roma Russel, second bass. Mr Davies gave most sympathetic accompaniment and his own piano selections from class.c e+mposers such as McDowell and Greig, showed fine artistry on h‘s part. For the third act the singers were in the costumes of their native land and nummbers sung _ wereâ€" "Hush, somebody‘s callin‘ my name," "Fly, Fly, Fly", "Swing low sweet chariot‘, "Kentucky Babe", "Bright Mansions Above." Mr Thomas Henderson, baker, reâ€" ceeived the sad news Tueslay, of the death of his brother James, at Montrose, Scotland. He was 45 years of age. Death has ended a long and valiant fight for life. For ten years James was a resident of Canada, reâ€" siding with his brother Thomas while in Walkerton and later in Durham. When in Walkerton during early war Aays, deceased enlisted with the 160 Bruce Battalion and trained at Carâ€" ling Heights, London, for overseas service. While at Carling Heights he contracted a germ, which troubled h‘m the remainder of his days and which even at that time, forbadehim crossing the ocean. Saléom in the present day and genâ€" eration w‘th the radio in many homes â€"do concerts come to town and leave such a satisfied feeling, as did the Carolina Jubilee Singers in Knox Unâ€" itel Church Tuesday night. There are six of them in the assemble and not a weak art‘st among them. The Young People‘s Society of Knox Church brought them here and feel happy that they were sponsors of a highâ€"class musical aggregation. The six members of this group are known far and wide to rac‘o listenersâ€"in and often are booked a year ahead for repeat evenings. _ After hearing them, it is not to be wondered at. He was marr‘ed while in Canada, to Miss Kathleen Saunders, a profesâ€" sional nurse of Walkerton, who preâ€" dAeceased him some years ago in Calâ€" ifornia. There was no family. Over twelve years ago, James returned to his early home in Scotlané and with h‘s aged mother, lived a quiet and retired life. There are also six brothers surviving, viz; Walter, of Montrose, Scotland; John, of Fergus; George, of Kearney, New Jersey : Thomas, of Durham: Will and Alfred of Dundee, Scotland. Death took place on the 15th November and he was interred at Montrose on the 17th Carolina Jubilee Singers Were a Musical Treat DURHAM, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 1933 THE ROLL CALL JAMES HENDERSON Election Card With which is incorporated the Holstein Leader | With the return of Elvidge to acâ€" | tion, and two other new outstanding _players available, Durham should be ready for all comers. And they‘ll be needed.. Owen Sound has coach Bill ‘ Hancock hired for both Junior and | Int. outfts, and they are out to make a splurge this winter,. Hancock knows his hockey and can produce winners. | Then Walkerton have also three new ‘ star prospects, two of them from <pro ranks. Watch this corner of the | province in a month or two! _ Officers elected are: ‘ Hon. Pres., P. Gagnon Hon. Vice Pres., Dr D. B. Jamieson | President, J. N. Murdock i _Vice Pres., Jas. B. Duffield | Soc‘y Treas., Alex. McQueen ‘ Executive Com., W. Alsop, Dr Burnâ€" | ett, C. Lauder, V. Noble, W. H. | _ Kress, H. Wilson, E. Schenk. | ] A plan is on foot this winter to‘ | combine Durham and Walkerton inâ€" |to one strong team in the Intermedâ€", ‘jate series, O.H.A., nsing five or six | players from each town. Such a team would undcubtedly "go places" with , |two fast forward lines. There are | ; those both for and aga‘nst such an amalgamation, but several of the players are among those in favor, and if Sec‘y Hewitt‘s sanction comes ‘to hand, it will undoubtedly go through. } ! Durham will enter a separate O.' H. A. team if not, and Senior and | Northern as well, in all probability, | so there will be no dearth of fast hockey. No entries will be made unâ€"| til this week end. \ Three in Lively Race For Glenelg Reeveship Next Monday Reeve Brodie of Gleâ€" nelg will face a stiff battle for his seat, Councillor John McGirr and Mr Angus McArthur both qualifying as well as Mr Brodic. Both new asâ€" p‘vrants are strong candidates and it will be a lively tilt, though with no slate for Council, the vote will not likely be up to usual strength. The Council elected by acclamation are Arch. MacCuaig, Jno. McKechâ€" nie (Glenroaden), Sam Wright and John Newell. The following were nominated: REEVEâ€"Thomas J. Brodie, John McGirr, Angus McArthur. COUNCILâ€" John McKechnie (Glenâ€" roaden), A. MacCuaig, John Mcâ€" Girr, John McCarthy, John O‘ Neil, Lawrence Chapman, John Newell, James P. McGillivray, Arthur Robinson. Newell is the only new face, he taking J. McGirr‘s place when John stepped out for the reeveship. Putting forward a month the date of municipal elections in some disâ€" tricts was partly to avoid the storm and bluster that usually happened toward the close of December. We rather should say "did happen" for since Bentinck and Glenelg changed their nomination dates to November, it has been the exception rather than the rule, that snowy rough weather descends on us in December. _ Friâ€" day last proved another bad Novemâ€" ber day for the municipal legislators. Robert Brigham has retired from the reeveship of Hanover, after seyvâ€" eral years of service. There were fow more gen‘al men in the County Council lineâ€"up and he wil be missed. We wonder if Hanover‘s new reeve â€"Austin E. Ball, will make the metâ€" eoric rise as quickly as did his late father, R. J. Bail, exM.P., in municiâ€" pal and federal politics? Durham hockey fans met in J. J. Murdock‘s office last Monday night and clected a slate to handle hockey locally this winter, which sport promises to provide keener compeâ€" titiva than usual in this locality. Organized for Hockey for Coming Season John Newell of Glenelg, is getting his first year of council experience with no struggle, slipping into the vacancy caused by the resignation of John McGirr from the Council table. vin tihe auinace s cheat mp io +4 4 If I am elected on . 4th, I will e se t K | serve the ratepayers the township When did Glenelg Township electâ€", to the best of my ability. ors last have the chance to select‘ I d‘d not cause an eld¢tion as I ofâ€" their Reeve from three men? | fered to withdraw if eitherof my opâ€" s s 5 c R | ponents w;uld d: in;;ull e. 1 "hew ours fait _ Campbell "Grant‘ was nominatea for| â€" _ Y9us (@ithfulin} _ _ Campbell Grant was nominated for the mayoralty, reeveship and counci‘ at Walkerton nominations.

The Chesley editor says it is comfortng to know that he can be saved without their blatant voices. If they omly realised it, it is THIS AND THAT that is maving them. ' Mr and Mrs J. T. Teeter returned last week from a two weeks‘ stay at l(;och.'.*ane and Brower, New Ontario. ! _ Mrs Jas. Kerr and son Walter, of Varney, accompanied by Miss Marâ€" jory and Caldwell Kerr, visited on ‘ Sunday with the former‘s Aaughter, Mr and Mrs Nichol Bell and family, of Elora. Madeline Knox Catton celebrated her fourth birthday on Saturday and entertained twelve young friends of a similar age. The young guests sat down to a table with favors at each plate, a marshmallow in which was inserted a miniature candle. The hanâ€" dle was a peppermint lifeâ€"saver canâ€" dy confection. Mrs Richard Barber has closed her home in town and left last week to spend the winter months with her daughters, Mrs Melbourne McKay, at Inwaosd, Ont.: Mrs (Rev.) Hill of Oak Park, II1. and Mrs Wayne Babâ€" cock, Morris, II1.
