A Clever Recital On Tuesday evening of this week Mise Maud Deverell gave a recital to an audience of above 40 invited guests, at the St. Paul's School House. Miss Deverell could not have made a better selection than "Richelieu' the master play of Lord Lytton. From a dram- atic standpoint, it one of the grand. est plays ever written, teeming with historic interest and strong situations. It deals with the period of Louis XIII„ of France, and portrays court in- trigues and conspiracies, which are all absorbing in their disclosures. Cardi- nal Richelieu is the central figure, s )ldier, priest and diplomat, and one of the most fascinating characters of French history. Miss Deverell's por- trayal of the wise and crafty old churchman was the very acme of character- acting. Her other imper- sonations of the characters in the play were very cleverly shown, and the at r y • in the County of Huron, gentleman, deceased.

Mrs Walter Cook, Sr., of Baker, whose death occurred Thursday morn- ing, July 7, at 8 o'clock, was well- known throughout this • vicinity, Death came as a result of old age and a gradual weakening until the end, which was very . peaceful.

Paris is favoring blue in all shades this summer. Never has there been such a year for this color. and there seems to be no tone of blue that is not worn.
