GOOD RALLY Cavin Presbyteeiau Sunday School Rally was this year one of the most successful iu, the history of the school. Rev. Fames Foote, B.A., the pastor, delivered a most;appro- priate addressto a large congrega- tion, cohiposed of scholars and friends'. ,The music was led' by the excellent orchestra of the school,. consisting of ten pieees. Special numbers by the orchestra and a vocal solo by Miss NettaPryde were much appreciated, The Rally Day eallection amounted to $50, which is considerly in excess of former years. Here is what one of our patienif has, to say in reply to an inquiry we. made: --- In reply to your question "Wliat have glasses done for yon? I au pleased to report that I scarcely ever have any of the oid-time di; zle spells and headaches which gave no much trouble ,previous to you fitting 'me with glasses." The above is only one of many; testimonials we have in our possess. ion and what has been their exper- fence may be yours. S. Fitton OPTOMETRIST .w. ..... M1s a...... I -t 'DSON'' AI) • FAMOUS WOMEN The above curt will bring to your attention the most famous women's organization of its kind on the Am- erican. Continent. We will tell you more regarding them farther down this page. Just here may we ask the question. Why dopeople become famous, and live for ages in the memory of good thinking people? Far the very reason that they have rendered a distinguished service to mankind and by an unselfish devo- tion to duty have created a condition in some sphere of life that makes this old `'world a better place in which to live. When we step out of the well-worn rut of life, to attempt something larger and newer, we at once make a new demand on our best thought and our greatest re- sources. The Ladies' 'Aid of Cen- tralia are bringing to Exeter on October 16th the famous Hudson musical organization. In so doing they are blazing a new trail in this Province along the line of entertain- ment. - An organization of less than 50 women are accepting a financial ob- ligation which some of our cities feared to undertake. Will they succeed and carry this undertaking to a successful conclusion.? All we say here is come and see. Every committee has their given work' well in hand; every detail has been pro- vided for; the great crowd on con- cert night will be handled with a smoothness and despatch. There will be no waiting nor any inconvenience to annoy our patrons. Next week we will give you a personal write up on each entertainer. We will tell you just where and how you can secure a ticket in your own town. The programmes will be available to yea. The' public are already ask- ing for more information regarding this concert, and manifesting an in- terest beyond expectation at this early , date. • We have one request at this junc- Kirkto S ,. QUARTETTE' tore, save all the articles appearing in the Exeter Times -Advocate and when the big concert is over, look then: over carefully then, and we will take your owls judgement on this great concert. May we issue a prejudgment for, you, it will be the famous Centralia ladies' Aid have delivered above and beyond our highest expectation in the realm fly entertainment, when • they broutha to Exeter the Hudson entertainers In conclusion we say a few words about the Ladies' Quartette:• Hudson Ladiesi Quartette \inning Laurels on Merit The 3. L. Hudson. Company's, ~ . ladies' quartette, of Detroit which appears in joint with the Hudson male quartette, October 16th at the James Street church, is an organi- zation rganization combining musical talents of widely recognized merit. .A quar- tette to be a success in ensemble singing does not necessitate each member being a solist. In the case of the Hudson quartette, however',• each member had achieved a liberal measure ofsuccess sand fame as s soloist before affiliating with this popular organization. The smoothness, richness and fine shading displayed in theirwork has' been widely commented upon and praised by critics, and on various,'' occasions they have been acclaimed "the finest ladies quartette in Am- erica." • Their appearance here is doubly, interesting, in that one of their, members, Miss Carmen Morlock, al-, though claiming Hamiltonas her. birthplace, is :widely related in and around Crediton and Dashwood, and as a consequence, her success as a musician has the interest of the entire community. The Hudson quartettes are ap- pearing under the auspices of the Ladies' Aid society of Centralia church, at James St. ckurch, Exeter through the courtesy of the Tatter. 1 Tuesday : Wednesday, SPEEDING IN TRE RING PUBLIC SCHOOL DRILL.., AND PARA► air a 6, A WONDERFUL EXHIBIT IBIT OF BABY fEEV:ES S b Marys it i13atid Will be in.
