With his brother Will serving a second term on Durham council and giving useful service as Board of Works chairman, the Mcâ€" Gowars are becoming prominent in the municipal field. As the Chesley Enterprise aptly remarks: "If Jack only puts half the energy into his municipal work that he does into the look:ng after the affairs of the ball club he would still be a mighty good councillor." Mr. John Schutz has bought the James Whitmore bush at McWil liams, and has a gang of men workâ€" ing in it. They are making their headquarters in the house on Mrs. Whitmore‘s farm. With their truck they are keeping the road open to Durham.

VOL LYIII NO. 4 NEW HIGHLAND CHIEF OF THE FARQUHARSON CLAN The Review Editor was pleased to receive the official announcement of the arrival in this world of "Duart Wiljiam Fafwmharsan."" This is the first son of this line of the Faurquâ€" harson dynasty and has been duly acclaimed with all the traditional honors. In every truth, time has pas wed quickly by since the father of this cighland chief was on innocent m.sclylof bent around the corners of the Review Office. The son cannot help but be a chip off the old block. That he is also a stalwart young chief, is evident in what the birth card says: of Duart William Farquharson on January 11, 1935. Duart William, nine pounds and two ounces, has earned the title of the Highland Chief in the Private Pavilion Nur sery, and proudly shows his tartan on ‘his shoulder."

I nanalttes \te T Pmrham‘in Di nhlls Over two years ago the "Review" prepared an article on Miss Gun, which so embodied her lifeâ€"work and characteristics, that we make no apâ€" ologies for publishing the same aâ€" gain. On Sunday evening, Jan. 20, the frail tenement of Miss Artina Gun, passed to a fairer realm, after some years of invalidism. There was no further illness which brought on death: rather the life blood forces refused to operate any longer. Since the death of her sister, Miss Lizzie, in 1926, Miss Artina has made her home with Miss May McCracken, in Upper Town, and from her has reâ€" ceived the comforts and consideraâ€" tion any mother would receive from her daughter. She is one of the few members of the Gun family left here. Death has made heavy inroads in the family circle the past 5 years. The funeral was held on Tuesday from Miss McCracken‘s home, and was conducted by the deceased‘s pasâ€" tor, Rev. W. H. Smith. Interment was made in the Gun plot in Durham cemetery . The pall bearers were Messrs Arch. McLellan, Alex. Hay, Dr. Grant, Peter Ramage, J. C. Howâ€" ell, and D. B. McFarlane. Among the floral tributes was a spray from the present Public School staff. Many â€"school sections surrounding Durham were privileged to have Miss Gun as their teacher. As far as recâ€" ords tell, her first school was at the Rocky Saugeen, teaching in the old school on the farm of Mr. Archibald McKechnie, now occupied by his grandson Malcolm. The new school on the present site, was built in 1873. The salaries given teachers were nbt princely in those back years and on Jan. 7, 1874, Miss Gun‘s first salâ€" ary receipt reads in fine Spencerian handâ€"writing : "Received from trustees of Union §$.S. Bent. & Glenelg, the sum of $123.80, as payment in full of my salary. Artina Gun, teacher" , Similar receipts are in the books for 1874, 1875 and 1876, with salaries| at $155.57, $187.25 and $190.98 re-I spectively. While teaching in the uc-; tion she boarded for a time with Mr: Archibald McKechnie‘s family and! in £o@##Â¥#"weather walked the distance| to her bhome at Durham. c l Other schools wherein she wielded an infuence were at Priceville and South Line, Glenelg. At the latter school she taught at two different periods, the first time staying with Mr and Mrs Donald McKinnon, the grandparents of Mrs Wm Smith, Misâ€" ses Julia and Annie Weir and Mrs. J. Burgess of Durbam. During her latter teaching period Mhere, she stay ed with the McCannel family. S. S. No. 9, Glenelg and Crawford schools also had ber at different periods and in 1893 she commenced duties in the Durham Public School, which were unbroken until 1918 when she resignâ€" Miss Gun had the faculty of makâ€" ing her pupils work and neither did she spare the rod nor spoil the child. Cc | _ It was Durham‘s smartest effort of the season, with every player disâ€" | playng headsâ€"up hockey. Speed and ‘at times more speed, predominated _and with more systematic team play as well than their opponents, Durham mounted up the score. The forward pass was worked as never ;befc-re and was a potent factor in providing more speed. The defence, C McGirr, Wilson and Bolger valiantly upheld their end of the conflict. Their work was 100 per cent eflicient, as neither Listowel DURHAM 11, LISTOWEL 2 Fresh from a 95 victory over Harâ€" riston last Friday, Listowei hockey team arrived here Monday with ‘bright hopes of snatching the first league game from Durham, in the O.H.A. Intermediate _ series, but the match was not long under way until they were disillusioned, for right from the start the locals comâ€" menced to pile up the goals. It stood 112 for Durham at the finish with pericd scores of 5â€"1, 8â€"1, 112. The smoothest working combinaâ€" tion on the ice was the Raybouldâ€"Elâ€" vidgeâ€"Tucker line. Raybould never showed better form here, netting 4 goals in 1st period alone, the first a sweet indvidual dash, when he drew goalie Oliver out of his nets, and lobbed the disc in behind him. Elvidge is also in improved form, his stickâ€"handling teaming with Rayâ€" bould producing three goals. The fans are delighted to see Dean back in real form again after a. slow start. He is a neat puck carrier and a dangcrous rusher. Two goals were his portion. With him (were teamed Murdock at centre and E. Schutz. who checked, backâ€"checked and rushâ€" ed most effectively but were unfortâ€" unate in not breaking into the scorâ€" ing column. The game was livened by two scrapsâ€"at beginning and just before the close, with Bean and E. Schuts the centre of action. They were sent to serve time, also numerous others during the game. Listowel drew 4 penalties to 1 Durham in 2nd, while Burham gathered 4 to 1 in final perâ€" iod.

In Arthur Monday night, Arthur and Harriston tied, 5â€"5. Durham has now won 5 stmaight league games. Their record this seaâ€" son to date is, won 7, lost 0, tied 1, the tie being an exhibition game in Fergus. The speed and the timely checking of the two youths of the teamâ€"Tuckâ€" er and Bolger, was a big factor in the decisive win.

The boys claim it ‘was their best game of the season, ‘and remarkably clean as well, only one penalty being given by referee McCurry of Stratford. 4 stacle than Owen Sound, in their quest af it. Durham‘s closest call yet in O.H. A. games was in Milverton Friday night, when they squeezed out a 4â€"3 win, after leading at one stage 3â€"0. The boys made the trip by cars in a couple of hours , over snowâ€" ploughed roads following Thursday‘s big storm, going via Harriston, Lisâ€" towel and Monkton. Winter‘s blasts no longer tie up highway traffic as they did even a decade ago. HOME GAME IN WALKERTON Durham‘s _ last scheduled home game in Int. O. H. A. series, with Harriston next Tuesday, Jan. 29th, has been transferred . to" Walkerton arena, and will commence at 8.30. Harriston are in second place in the district. FLESHERTON HERE TONIGHT In the Int. No:thwestern League, Flesherton plays in Durham tonight, Thursday in a crucial fame for the locals, Durham lost the first game 1â€"5, but a win over Flesherton will tie the two teams for district leadâ€" ership. THURSDAY, JAN. 24, 1935 Period scores were 2â€"0 for Durham, 3â€"1, and 43. Durham‘s sharpshooters were Elvidge, Dean, Bolger and E. Schutz, 1 each. The gama was transgNerred as a compliment to the many fans from that town and district following Durâ€" ham team, also to the two players with Durham from Walkerton, Rayâ€" bould and Trushinski. The latter has signed and will likely be in action Tuesday for his first game. Won Two Games Durham â€" defeated. Chatsworth in that village, Tuesday night in a Int. Northwestern league game by a score of 5â€"2. It was a cleanly played game, with some fast and clever hockey. The winners deserved their victory as they bhad a district marâ€" gin on the play. Mel McFariane of Chatsworth forâ€" ces tallied both goals for his team, making nice plays before banging the disc into the net. He got one in the 1st and one in the 3rd. For Durham Midllraith scored 2, Rowe 2, and Black the other. Durham 11, Chatsworth, 5, was the‘ result of the opening game of the | new Senior Northâ€"western League in ; Durbam on Friday night.
