(Intended for last week)
Last Sunday in Main Street Unit
ed Church Sunday School an incident
of unique interest took: place as a
culmination of the Temperance Ex
aminations held last fall under the
auspices of the W. C. T. U. and Do
minion Alliance. In other years
good marks were made by a number
in this Sunday School and hopes '
were high that this year some mem
ber of the school would succeed in
securing provincial recognition and
they were not disappointed. Miss
Murray had the privilege of congrat.
ulating Gordon G. Greb in being one
of the six highest in Ontario, when
all papers were examined in Ottawa.
The best papers from each of the
provinces were sent to Montreal and
i here Gordon succeeded in capturing
■ one of the Dominion awards. Gordon I 15 years old, was called to the front
and in a neat impromptu speech that
would have done credit to a much
order boy or man acknowledged the
honor accorded him. He is the son
of Mr. John Greb, of Concession two,
Hay and in his school course has
proved to be a diligent and capable
student. He is now in his first year
in the Western University, London. *
Few farmers ip these hard times are
able to send their sons past High
School but Mr. Greb’s boys are help
ing one another to’ get the best. An
other son, Harry is a B.A., fppm the
Western and an M. A. from Michi
gan University, at Ann Arbor. He is
teaching in Bracebridge, Ontario
[ and has the honor of financing his
|younger, brother. If health' and a
chance to work be the" lot of these
older boys we may expect to hear of
continued honors coming to the
younger members of the family. What
an advantage it is to a family not to
be wealthy if they are industrious,
honest and ambitious.
