the program of the,Maintenance and
Extension Fund. Re*, W. D. Mac -
!Donald of Eginondville gave e ver
encouraging report of the Fund so
far, and with' the information glean-
ed from many of the charges, it
was shown that the Huron Presby-
Lety.was well on the way to it's ob-
. jective, which was $70,000. Some

parcels of church property were re-
ceived and dealt with. It was point-
ed out however, that Trustee Boards
should be advised against the sale
t of any property or buildings that
might be -kept under the control of
_ the church for commUnity purposes
Unused churches might well be fix-
ed up to fulfill a long -felt need in
many communities, where our young
people may enjoy clean healthful re-
creation, and .the- hope was express-
' considered before 'parting with our
church properties,
The Trivitt Memorial Young Peep-

A unique event tOok place in Us -
borne on Saturday last when Mr.
and Mrs. Wm. Kydd celebrated the
diamond jubilee of their wedding.
At noon members of their family to-
gether with a number of neighbors
and friends surprised them in their
home having prepared a very bounti-
ful repast. A very' pleasant after-
noon was spent in the course of
which the honored couple were
made the recipients' of suitabee pre-
sents. Mr. Kydd who is in' his 84th
year, was born at Arbroth, „Forfar -
shire, Scotland, and carae to ,Cane -
da in a. sailing vessel 76 years ago
with his parents, taking up land in
'Osborne where Mr. Kydd has since
resided. Mrs. Kydel, whost maiden
name was Elizabeth Crawford, was
born near Pt. Dalhousie, Lanark
Co., Ontario 8,1 years ago. They
were muted in marriage 60 years

acute attack of -kidney trouble and
Mrs. Acheson was called to the city
Monday evening. Latest reports

Mr. C. C. Film has installed a
lacquei•oid system for painting cars
and he has already put a fine finish
on Dr. Hyndman's and on Dia Kins-
man's autos: With the laequeroid
system the paint is sprayed on
through a gun much in the shape of
a pistol and leaves a beautiful gloss
finish. There is 110 brushing what-
ever. Metal or furniture can be
done with the same results.
Last week we had two persOna
