,Luster pupils motored down.
Rally day services at Main street
Church was a big success. The wea-
ther was threatening ante ,sept away
a few wito otherwise would have at-
tended. The attendance was smaller
than last year but the offering watt
greater. Splendid addresses were
given by Mr. Fred Hogarth and `.Sias
Medd. Mr. Hogarth spoke on "win-
ning every available member to our
Sunday School." He thought that !he
MK' way was for everyone to have a
word of Braise for the Sunday school
and for all to work in unison, He
aleo said the parents should have
ere at influence over the attendance.
Miss Medd spoke on "having Sunday
tid iteols in all parts of Canada." She
told of the need for Sunday schools
out West and of how site had taught
children of many nationalities out
there. She urged the boys and girls
to take up the work of spreading the
gospel in our Canadian West. Miss
E. X ollielt sang in splendid voice,
"'The Ninety and Nine." Several
selections were rendered by the
primary class. The superintendent
urged those present to take Mr. Ho-
garth's advice and boost the Sunday
school. Throw away the hammier and
get a horn. The offering was $14.68.
O,H.A. HO(`REY OR EXETER
Exeter will be put on the hockey
map this winter by Zurich and Exe-
ter going together and entering as a
Zurich and Exeter team in the O. H.
A, and the Northern Hockey League.
With the material that Exeter & Zur-
ich have we may expect a real fast
team. Exeter has some good men
this year and. Zurich with the three
Hoffman boys and a Couple of others
should form a team that will stand
out with -the best of them. Organiza-
tion will start at once so as to get a
good start. The rink will be put in
shape to handle the crowd and no
doubt the town will take an interest
and help the team along. The town
has been dead in the sport line for
some time and a good hockey team
should help to put the town on the
map. Zurich and Crediton were wide-
ly advertised by the baseball they
put up last summer. Let everyone
help to make hockey a success in
Exeter this winter. It will soon be.
time for the boys to Start a little
training. Everyone will be given a
chance whether a resident of the
town or community. .A. meeting will
he held shortly to organize.
