the13th. 1n all reason this will prove
one of the most active Stortos for Dee -
ember, By the Mita general change

in western sections. The temperature
will increase and, the barometer con-
tinue to fall as these conditions pro-

rain and wind storms will evelop

On the north and west extremes of
these centers, blizzardous' storms of
sleet and snow, with gales, will set, in

Period is central on the 19th, 20th and

December, or winter, solstice period.
and also at the beginning of a:Mere.ury

period of prolonged stormy and seve

Annlyersary.
Rev,' De. Daniel as' preacher and Mr.
Albert Greenlaw a$ soloist were greet-
ed by immense' congregations at the
anniversary services on Sunday last
in the James street Methodist church.
In the morning the church was well
filled, the mass meeting of the Sunday
school in, the afternoon was • well' at-
tended, while at night the attendance
was so large that many people were
unable to obtain admission, the aisles,
stairways, eta, being all filled. Prob-
ably twelve hundred people were pres-
ent. Dr. Daniel has for years had the
reputation in Exeter of being .one of
best preachers in the conference.,. This
was his lrst appearance here and his
discourses were such as to ably sustain
his reputation.: He is a fluent and
forceful speaker and his subjects were
handled in a manner that was at once
pleasing, interesting and instructive.
The choir, assisted by Mr. Greenlaw,
rendered beautiful anthems, while the
solos of Mr. A. B. Greenlaw were re-
markably good. He possesses a deep,
rich voice, is clear and distinct in his
ennunciation and•sang familiar selec-
tions most of which were• by request.
Without a doubt no better bass voice
has ever been beard in Exeter, The
Sunday school mass meeting was a
pleasing feature. Mr. S. Martin occu-
pied the chair and he, Dr. Daniel and
Mr..F. W. Gladman gave short inter-
esting Addresses, and Mr. Greenlaw
sang. A freewill offering was taken
up and totalled about $300.

Successful Bazaar.
The Bazaar held in the Town Hall
under the auspices of the Ladies' Guild
of the Trivitt Memorial church on Fri-
day afternoon and evening last, was a
most enjoyable affair as well as a gra-
tifying success financially. The hall
was beautifully decorated with bunt-
ing, Chinese lanterns and other bea.uti-
fying effects and the handiwork of the
ladies of this most worthy auxiliary of
the church was in strikingevidence on
all sides. The large number in atten-
dence both afternoon and evening
purchased most freely of the many
useful and ornamental articles pre-
pared for the occasion until nearly all
were disposed of. The choice program
prepared for the evening was an inter-
esting feature and was heartily enjoy-
ed,as was also the refreshments served.
The rector, Rev. Collins,presided in his
usual happy manner, while -the organ -
Mr. Brown, had charge of the piano
and rendered excellent music. Mrs.
(Rev.) Perkins of Ingersoll delighted
her hearers and after each number
was compelled to appear a second time.
Mrs. Perkins is no stranger to an Ex
eter audience but -is none the less de-
lightfully pleasing in her singing. The
readings by Miss Petty of Hensell re-
ceived hearty encores as did also the
instrumental duets by Messrs. Berry
and Maguire. The Irish reading by
Rev. Collins (with apologies to Mrs.
Hatter for the Irish dialect)was an in-
teresting number while the vocal sel-
ections by Mr. Hector were well receiv-
ed. After a vote of thanks was tend-
ered those taking part in the program
a most pleasant evening was broken
up by all joining in. singing "God save
the King". The proceeds amounted to
over $85.
