TWO FIRES ON SATURDAY ~~ Two serious fire reported on Saturday last at Port Perry and dis- _ trict.. About eight o'clock on Satur- day night a fire alarm was sent that Mr. Thomas Brent's barn was on fire and in a very few minutes the whole structure was a burning mass fanned by a strong south wind which carried sparks for blocks, but at the same time blew the heat and ks from Mr, Brent's residence was only some thirty feet from the barn. All the stock was taken out in time, and the loss will amount to about $2,000, partly covered by in- surance, The other fire resulted in the total destruction of the L.O.L. Hall at Purple Hill. In this instance the fire wil started from a spark of a thresh- ing engine which ignited some grass about the hall. The volunteer fire- men devoted their efforts to the pro- tection of a nearby barn, and did not notice the blaze at the hall until it was beyond their control; The build- ing was a wooden structure valued at $1,500. ------() (msn: CHURCH OF THE ASCENSION Sunday, November 9th 11 a.m. service withdrawn owing to I1O.D.E. Memorial Service in the Methodist Church at 11 a.m. Service at 3 p.m. Baptism by appointment Sunday afternoons, November 11th 11 atm. service with the observance of the 3 minute silence. At 8 pm, the A.Y.P.A, will meet in the Parish Hall. The Rector will speak on the work and object of the Association, The Church Bazaar held under the auspices of the Ladies' Guild and the A.Y.P.A, turned out to be one of the most successful held by that body. After expenses were deducted from the total amoupt raised we are glad to relate about $300 were cleared. The result was a worthy ending to the work done by the undefatigable ladies who for some time past have been working perseveringly to the end attained. " The stalls numbering twelve in all, namely the fancy stall, sample stall and the candy stall were tastefully decorated, and the orange tree was a huge delight to the little ones. All praise is due tothe ladies who worked streniously hard in the basement of the hall where a sumpt- ious repast was in readiness to ap- pease the aching void of man. The musical items also provided pleasure, thé recitations especially so. Lim- ited space forbids the mention of names who participated in the great event but we take occasion to thank one and all who either gave price or time. The public also are to be thanked for so generously supporting the occasion . Last, but not least, the men deserve our appreciation in the part played by them.
