We trust he will soon be up and around again. Latest reports are that Mrs. Sandy, |" who underwent an operation in a To- ronto hospital, is getting along nicely. ' It is reported that Mr. Robt. Wells has purchased the house on Caleb St. from Mrs. Arthur Rose, now occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Bentley. Mr. and Mrs. T. Currah and family have moved to Haliburton district. Mr. Currah has been Section Foreman on the railroad here for a number of years, and is retiring from the service. Mr. Currah's place is being filled by Mr. Warren, of Whitby, for a time. THOMAS C. FORMAN Mr. Thomas Chalmers Forman one of the early residents of Collingwood, (Vancouver), after a lingering illness, passed away at his home, 3262 Van- ness Avenue, on New Year's morning. The deceased was a native of On- tario, having been born near Port Perry seventy-five years ago, and was the last surviving member of a family of four brothers and three sisters. Collingwood (Vancouver) old-timers still remember David Forman a pio- neer business man and the first night operator on the Carleton telephone exchange who died here in 1914. Wil- liam, also a resident of this district passed away in 1930. During the year 1891 the late Mr. Forman mar- ried Miss Diana Heard (of Whitby, Ont.), who died ten years later leaving one daughter, Elsie, who has been her father's pal ever since and to whom the sympathy of the community is now extended. The funeral took place on January 4th, conducted by Rev. R. N. Matheson, of Collingwood United Church, associated with him was Rev. Robert Wilkinson, a former pastor and a friend of many years standing. Note--The above was taken from a Vancouver paper. Mr. Forman was a cousin of the late J. L. Forman of Port Perry. 'He lived .in Prince Al- bert, Ont., before moving to, Van- couver and had three sisters and three brothers, Margaret, Annie and Elsie, James, David and William; who have all passed away: - SKI CLUB NEWS Most people are enjoying the mild weather but ski enthusiasts are not. Will we have snow by Saturday? "To be or not to be." If king winter permits, the ski club members-will meet-at-the-town hall on Saturday at 1.30 p.m. All those who are interested in outdoor sport are invited to come. "On to Green- bank" is our slogan. Greenbank hill is almost green in reality as well as in name these days. Next Saturday eve, the club is plan- ning to have a skating party at the rink, followed by refreshments and an hour's dancing at: the school. Last Saturday night, the club en- joyed a social evening at the school. About thirty-five persons were on hand for a- delightful evening of en- tertainment. Secretary--Why was our President awake until 1.30 a.m. on Sunday? Vice-President--I don't know unless he had some of my coffee a le lait? The average person obtains enough outdoor exercise in the summer but not in the winter. Skiing is a good form of exercise in the winter. It is good exercise and it is really enjoyed The beginner is advised to start on gentle slopes and to do cross-country skiing. Our club only wants members who are good sports and who are interested in the out door life. -- to -------- MARRIED DAVEY-HEAPS--On January 9th, 1937, 'at the parsonage, Myrtle, Ont., by Rev. W. E.
