C. Town are a wmwch-feted pair, and several events bave been held in their hemor, and several pregentations have been made erc their departure from our midst. The former has disposed of his furniture and undertaking busi- ress to G. BE. Judson and Son, of this place, who have now been in charge for several weeks. In the local churches on Sabbath last (22d inst), appropriate refer- ences were made to the close proxim- ity of Victoria Day, and patriotic principles were "inculcated and en- couraged. On Sabbath evening, in tho Baptist church,-Rev. G. G. Up- ham, B.Th., conducted a helptul "song -service," his address being interspersed with hymns, known and loved." The choir rendered excellent service, solo work being taken by Miss Bresee, Messrs, 'Bates and Young. The First Picnie, Epworth Leaguers opened the pic- pic season.on Monday by holding their annual outing at Butternut Bay, St. Lawrence river, where the pastor, Rev. H. E. Warren, M.A. B.D., has his summer homie, Sports snd pastimes constitute a pleasant day. A Victoria Day dance was held in bthe town hall on Monday evening, the Island City orchestra being in at- tendance. Mrs. Mervyn Brown, who Las a class in violin here, is a mem- ber of the orchestra. To few of us comes the opportun- ity of going abroad and seeing the peoples of other lands, but to hear one who has actually had such an interesting experience tell of her travels is perhaps a good substitute, and when the narrator is Miss Edith Giles, of the staff of the Brockville Collegiate Institute, it goes without saying-that a very vivid description is received. Miss Giles is an experi- enced traveller, a fluent linguist with an attractive personality, and the story of her experiences in Great Britain, Belgium and France as told in her inimitable manner in the high school assembly hall on the evening of May 25th will be long remember~ ed.

Along with many other treas- ures, this tablet was destroyed, in the disastrous fire which demolish- od our far-famed educational insti- tution. To replace the former, 2 {i new tablet is being unveiled to-day in the high school community hall at 2 p.m., in the presence of all who care to attend. An ex-student, Rev. Arthur Hagan, (resident here during the pastoral of his father, some years ago), chaplain of the 156th Bat- talion--to which our local men be- longed--Iis expected to give an ad- dress, Consummation of Dream. The consummation of Reeve M. B. Holmes® dream . takes place ' this afternoon at four, when Lieut.-Col. R. J. Gill, Brockville, unveils the soldiers' memorial tablet in the council chamber of the town hall. The tablet is a beautiful penmanship executed in Toronto, and, when draped with the flags of the allies, will be most effective. The "key" to the memorial tree-plant- ing system adopted some time &gO, will be also included and explained. Russell Pierce, whose eye was in- jured while playing ball about the middle of the month has been able to return from the General Hospi- tal, Brockville, where he has been under treatment.

Blackwell, Lindsay, has arrived to spend some time with her mother, Mrs, Irwin Wiltse, who has been in fll-health for some time. An- other daughter, Mrs. W. W.
