Forest firemen, the church was saved from the flames, but not before the seuth wall had been blistâ€" ered. Before the firemen left the rcaritg inferno, it bhad died down, out of possible further danger, and some walls of store were shoved in. The store was a large brick strucâ€" ture with basement, with residence above, worth $5,000 or $6,000 and contained a stock of approximately $8,000 . None of it could be saved. Mr. Arnill plans, now that his busiâ€" ness is gone, to take a fortnight‘s hol.day. in _ Detroit and _ elsewhere, and rebuild a smaller and more modâ€" ern store, on the ruined site. _ No residence will be built. Mr and Mrs Arnill are at present living at Mr.‘ lert Eccles‘ home but will renovate their own sixâ€"roomed house to the ‘ear of the store, lately vacated by Mr. Duke. It was not damaged at the fire, and Mr. and Mrs. Arnil} will occupy it as a residence shortly. BORNM [ARBER â€" In Egremont, on Sunday ingust 14th to Mr. and Mrs. Cecil Harber a son.

Dirc:tors of South Grey Fair are ; sparing neither time nor thought| to put over a good Show and providâ€"? ing the weather man gives them a | square deal, all records should be| broken. There is a definite swing back to the rural fail and there is‘ where contacts are made for better. living and farming conditions. i Fcllowing the ceremony, the wed-j ding luncheon: was partaken of at the y bride‘s home at Vickers, by nearly; twentyâ€"five immediate relatives and| fr.ends of the bridal party.

Three fast preliminaries are carded when two Durham lads, Gordon Mcâ€" Donald and Gordon Gieenwood, battle Murray and Ross from Buffalo and Niagara Falls, while the stalwart Flesherton boy, Carvill, who won his last bout here, will meet Eagin of Buffalo. _ Some good reserved seats are yet available at McFadden‘s, and plenty of rush seats. Mecl. Glionna who boxes in the semi final against one of Michigan State‘s best, is training at the Apex Gym. in Toronto with Joe Bagnato, a stable mate. This fight :s liable to steal the spotlight, because these two never take a backwarc step, and they will trade punches from bell to bell. G!liâ€" onna is a slight favorite, but he will have his hands full and the fans can expect an upset. |_ Great interest is being manifested | in the first professional _ boxing !1‘olfrnnment to be staged in Durham Arena Fiiday night, when some hotly | contestced scraps are looked for. .!
