PURCHASED MAIL ROUTES Durham mnil_ routes DURHAM, ONTARIO, CANADA, A drizzling rain, which continued most of the afternoon. and a cold, damp wind did not deter Durham and vicinity citizens from turning out en masse last Saturday after- noon to attend the funeral service of the late David Smith of the firm of Smith Bros, whose death was reported in our last issue. The ser- vice was held in the Queen Street United church, and shortly after one o’clock. friends and sympathiz- ers began to gather in the building, and by two o’clock, the hour set for 'the funeral, the building was filled to capacity. During the service, the basement of the building, too,‘ was filled, and many others stood in the aisles, at the back of the church and on the steps leadin into the building. It was a remar able demâ€" onstration of the sympathy felt for .‘u Shortly after two o’clock, the fun- eral certege left the residence on Queen street and slowly made its way to the church building where the service was in charge of the family pastor, the Rev.

Mr. Peters, in delivering the address, referred to the Splendid tribute paid to the character and 1 reputation of the deceased by the large gathering that had assembled to render this last tribute of re- spect. Some of them had been the friends of his boyhood and young manhood, others had had business relations with him. while others had grown to know him and respect him for his sterling worth as a citi- zen and a friend in his maturer years.

Cm?‘ DAY DREAMS ORGAN RECIT Al Boys' Choir of St. George’s Church, Owen Sound, Were Big Surprise to Durham Audience Tuesday Night. “Real good and then some" was the verdict of those who were in attendance at the organ recital and choir concert in the Knox United church Tuesday evening. The tal- ent, Mr. R. G. Geen, organist, and the St. George’s Church Choir Boys of Owen Sound, with Mr. F. Higham, baritone, and Mr. G. Boorman, tenor, also of Owen Sound, were all that could be desired, and the I.O.D.E., under whose auspices the recital was put OIL are. to be congra’itulated on having secured such excellent talent. About the only fault to he. found was in the smallness of the crowd, the auditorium of the church being only about half tilled. This. how- ever, cannot be attributed to any- thing but the disagreeable night and the fact that with so much going on this week. nearly everyone had ad- ' Vance engagements that could not i easily be broken Tho prugram in its 0 one of the best music presented here in a [on the singing of the Boys’ of whom were not over of age. was a revelation Intornatipnally famous ag‘x'll lsttfl IMrUv.E“anH0hu,\vhn ported tn have dismvm'mi wheat which promisos to black stvm rust.
