The bride‘s parents were in attenâ€" dance for the nuptial event, having motored up on Wednesday and reâ€" turning on Friday of last week. The young couple are on an extended motor trip through the State of Masâ€" sachussets, U.S.A. and upon their return are taking up residence in New Liskeard, from which point the groom is a travelling salesman for The happy couple were attended by Mr and Mrs W.

Downie. eldest son of Mr and Mrs David Downie of Saskatoon, Sask. | _ Reeve A. MacArthur of Glenelg appealed ass‘t of shop and stables ‘In rear of Hahn House, which he reâ€" Icently bought, as too high at $1,700, also business ass‘t of $550. Properâ€" ! ty ass‘t was considerably more than ,{he pald for it. The Court decided , that in view of the type of business carried on, the business assessment | was rather high, and set same at 25% of value of buildings, which means ubout $125 reduction. Proper-l ty ass‘t was sustained. The John Ferguson property on College St. was transferred to name of James Moore, who has recently purchased it. R. L. Saunders appealed against $100 ass‘t increase on his property, claiming it not a time for raising assessments under present business conditions. Court thought it fair, and threw off the $100 added on condiâ€" tion that appellant install a water tap in his store and thus aid waterâ€" works revenue which he stated he proposed doing. Durham Council as a whole, sat as a Court of Revision on Monday | evening to adjudicate upon four apâ€" peals against assessment. Two were sustained and two slightly reduced. Fred Noble thought his assessâ€" ment of $1000 on house and 4 acre lot, lot 3, Gara. E., should be cut from $1,000 to $600 owing to disreâ€" pair of the property. Appeal was entered too late, and the Court did not consider it. Jos. McCaslin appealed his assessâ€" ment of $20q on 7 acre lot near stone and sand plant as being too high. The Court thought is reasonâ€" able and sustained it. Court of Revision Hears Four Appeals DOWNIEâ€"MacARTHUR Che Burhim Revie.

Two Fires in One Day Quencked by Brigade VARNEY POSTMASTER RECEIVES JUBILEE MEDAL Mr. _ R. J. Eden, postmaster of Varney, is also one of the honored icnes to receive the King‘s Jubilee medal. It has been given him for ’long and reliable service to the pubâ€" lic for almost 44 years. .In 1891 Mr Eden was appointed postmaster, sucâ€" ceeding his father, the late Frances Eden, who was the first postmaster in that village, being appointed about 65 years ago. Thus during all these years, Varney has seen only two postmasters, father and son, though there have been many assistants. We congratulate Mr. Eden on his services being thus recognized by the post office Dept., and hope he keeps handing out the mail for many years to come. ‘pared with today, with 50,000 young !men jobless and homeless in Canada and 25,000,000 unemployed in the world, 25 % of them young people.

Untit we once ‘more find roots in God, we‘re going on to the materialism which will destroy us altogether. In the evening his text was ‘When the outlook is bad‘, based on Mark 13. Jesus was preparing His followâ€" ers for the new Day coming, and giving~them advice as to conduct. When the outlook is bad, the speaker urged: keep cool, keep on your toes, try the uplook, and keep aâ€"going. Both messages were eagerly and thoughtfully heard by his auditors. The special music in the morning was a duet by Mrs C. McGirr and Mrs Stoneouse, and an anthem by the choir, while in evening aâ€"men‘s choir, 22 strong, supplied two numâ€" bers . * | _ Rev. Mr Domm is a former Ayton |boy. and a number from that district !took occasion to hear him. He deliâ€" vered two fine messages, in a style somewhat at variance from usual ’sermons. In the morning, his subâ€" ject was "That Good Samaritan busâ€" iness today." There are four attiâ€" tudes towards our fellowâ€"mea in the Samaritism â€" of today: the robber who creates the problem; the. comâ€" pany of folk who ignore social proâ€" blems of the day; those who treat it ccommerciaily; and that of the human brother who endeavors to soive the problem.â€" Acting the Good Samariâ€" tan 2000 years ago, was simple comâ€" Most successful anniversary serâ€" vices were held last Sunday in Knox United Cherch, when the special preacher of the day was Rev. Gorâ€" don Domm, M. A., B. D., pastor of Knox United Church, Owen Sound. Large congregations were present for both services, Queen St. church kindly withdrawing their service in the evening. Successful Anniver‘y Service _ THE ROLL CALL With which is incorporated the Holstein Llesc¢cr DURHAM, THURSDAY, MAY 30, 1935 Rev. W. H. Smith, The pallbearers were all Masonic brethren, Messrs D. C. Town, Clif Howell, Jas. Mcâ€" Lachlan, R. E. Richardson and two Brampton friends, Percy Warr and Bert Giles. Masonic brethren also acted as flowerâ€"bearers. The funeral service, held from the home under Masonic auspices, Monâ€" day afternoon, was very largely atâ€" tended. His Pastor, Rev. R. G. Halbert was in charge, assisted by In 1913 the deceased wedded a Mitchell girl, Miss Edith Diegel, who survives him with a family of six children, Orval, Mona, Gordon, Ross, Edith and Marjorie, all at home. Two brothers and one sister also survive: Arthur and Mrs. George Burnett, (Myrtle) of Durham, and Earl of Humber Bay. The deceased was a strong robust man, until recent months and a great lover of sports of all kinds. Lacrosse was his favorite game and he was one of the best defence players in Western Ontario 20 to 30 years ago. For twenty years he played for Durâ€" ham in the old days of field lacrosse some of them as captain of the team. When box lacrosse was organized here three years ago last fall Howâ€" ard was again prevailed up to use the gutted stick at his old position â€"point, and played effectively. He found box lacrosse a more tiring game however. He was possessed of qualities which stood him in good stead on the fireâ€"brigade, on the laâ€" crosse field and through lifeâ€"courâ€" age, never flinching in danger, or from an opponent; coolness in meetâ€" ing any difficulty or situation; coâ€" operation, working in closest harmâ€" ony with his teammates in any orâ€"| ganization he was connected with. | Over twenty years ago he was apâ€" pointed chief of Durham Fire Briâ€" gade, which position he held for 12 years, resigning the office when he went to Hamilton. In recent years he was made assistant chief which office he held up to his death, with his elder brother Arthur, as chief. Howard was the second son of the late Mr and Mrs Hugh McDonâ€" ald, born in Durham fifty years ago next July. His parents passed away in Sept. 1930 and January 1927 reâ€" spectively. He received his education in Durham schools, and upon leaving school entered upon his trade of mason and ‘bricklayer, working with his father for many years. His enâ€" tire life has been spent in Durham with the exception of ore summer in Hamilton, and eight months at his trade in Sudbury and Copper Cliff, five years ago. 3 p.m., he gasped for breath, and his wife opened the window wider. When she came back, he fell lifeless on the bed, the exertion evidently wrer taxing his heart. _ The last call came on Saturday afternoon to this wellâ€"known Durham boy, in the prime of life. It was a shock to h:s family circle and also to the town, most of the citizens litâ€" tle realizing that his iliness was so critical. A little more than a month ago he was forced to take to his bed with a heart affection, and at times scemed to rally. Last Wednesday he took a bad turn, but since appeared better and was able to eat a hearty meal Saturday noon.
