held its annualchurch parade on Sunday
morning. when over eighty members at-
tended Knox church and were addressed
by the pastor, Rev. R. C. McDermid.
The text was from Luke 10: 36, 37. the
parable of the good Samaritan. and the
preacher pointed out that the spirit of
duty to our fellowmen as illustrated in
this parable furnishes the foundation upon
which Oddfellowship is built. It was

CLUB. -A meeting under the auspices of
the Colborne Farmers' Club held here
last Thursday nigelakord0 to send dei
gates to join in a Provincial deputation to
tlttawa to lay before the Government the 1
seriousness of the farm help situation.
especially in view of the Government's
declared intention of cancelling the ex-
emption of farmers in the class now being
called up for military service. In the
very large gathering which crowded the
hall were several farmers from Ashfield, I
including Mr. John N. Mackenzie and
Mr. Murdoch Matheson. who brought
with them a set of resolutions on the same
subject which had been passed at a meet-
ing at Kintail the previous night. While
the need of backing up the brave men
overse's was recogruxed, the sense of the
meeting was that if further drafts were
made upon the manpower of the karma the
effect in lessening production would be
serious. Before the discussion of this mat-
ter was introduced, the Club had the
pleasure of hearing a brief address from
the recently -appointed agricultural repre-
sentative. Mr. S. B. Stothers. and a very
instructive address on co-operative mar-
keting of wool by Mr. Telfer, representing
the Ontario Sheepbretders' Association.
