Victoria Day Celebrations. ' ADDITIONAL LOCALS
Victoria Day, May 21th, is to be roy-
t'ly celebrated in Exeter this year as
usual, and as the date falls on Sunday
this year, the celebration will be held
on Monday, May 23th, A most en-
thusiastic committee has taken the
matter tin and have completed ar-
rangement, for a more than tit dinatily
successful and entertaining day. Live
men have the looking after of all the
details and if efforts count for success,
a good time is assured to all those who
are present. Processions, horse races
and athletic sports. with possibly a
display of fireworks and a concert,
will make a full day of pleasure and
enjoyment. Trot or pace and running
races are on the program. In a full
list of athletic sports a special feature
is the Marathon Race, a distance of
six utiles. which is already interesting
many of the boys.
Crediton, our neighboring village, is
also preparing for a celebration, and
when the boys in Crediton put their
hands to the plow, they do not fail -
so success is assured.
While it is regrettable that the vil-
lages of Exeter and Crediton should
choose the sante day in the year for
their celebrations, still there is no rea-
son w by both should not be it succus.
People feel in the month of May like
having a day off, and consequently ev-
erybody goes in for having a time on
Glorious Victoria Day.
Oddfellows Attend Church.
The members of Exeter Lodge,
1.(I.0,F. celebrated the anniversary of
the founding of theorder by attending
divine service in the Main street Meth-
odist church on Sunday morning 1.►st.
when the pastor of the church, Rev.
E. A. Fear, delivered a very fine dis-
course to the brethren who were pre-
sent to the number of about ninety.
He took his text from the fourth
chapter of Genises and part of the
ninth terse: "Am I niy brothel's
keeper."
He described how jealously Cain
killed his hrother Abel and how when
asked where Abel was replied to the
Lord in the words of the text. in ex-
panding his text he drew a vivid word
picture of how the ,few was robbed
and wounded on his way to Jericho
and left for dead on the roadside; how
the priest, being accustomed to such
scenes. passed by, and the Levite com-
ing along, after pausing and looking
at the wounded pian, also passed him
by, but a Samaritan chancing along
that way willingly gave heed to the
wounded man's cry for help and gave
hint food and shelter although the
Jews and Samaritans were the bitter-
est of enemies. How touch better it
is to help the needy than to pass then,
by. Ile spoke also of the great loge
existing between Jonathan and David
and how Jonathan pleaded with his
father, King Saul, on David's behalf;
and of the noble work being done by
the Oddfellows in helping the widows
and orphans, and the sick, needy and
distressed; of the influence for good a
lodge like the Oddfellows would have
if they would all put forward their
best efforts in the work of God.
The members of the lodge expressed
themselves as deeply grateful to Rev.
Fear for the excellent sermon he had
preached to there,
From The ADVOCATE
of 20 Years Ago.
Exeter. April 20, 188.8.
On Thursday last the Scott Act met
its fate in Huron County and also in
other counties. The Act was repealed
by a majority of 1300. After three
years trial the people decided that the
act was not in the interest of temper-
ance. A vigorous campaign was wag-
ed for and against the repeal.
The other counties to repeal the Act
were Renfrew, Bruce, Simene, Duffer -
in, Not folk, Dundas, Stormont and
Glengar ry.
