After an illness of about eight months' duration death came as a welcome visitor on Friday last to re- lieve the sufferings of Mr. Charles Perkins. During that time the decea- sed was a great sufferer, but he bore his affliction without a murmur and with patience that depicted the beautiful Christian character he pos- sessed. Mr. Perkins was 59 years and 1 month old. He was born on the 4th concession of Usborne on the farm on which his son resides. He was a son of the late Charles and Almira Perkins. For many years he fanned the homestead and then retired and came to Exeter to live. Mr. Perkins was a quiet, unassuming man, but few met were admired more for their stirling upright character .than the deceased. Iie is survived by his be- reaved widow, whose maiden name was Madeline Pollicic. Also one son Harvey on the homestead and Mrs. Alwyn Daman, of Usborne Tp. Six sisters also survive, Mrs. Thomas Harvey and Mrs. S. M. Sanders of town; Mrs. S. W. Rowe of Galt;Mrs. Albert Johnston of Lucknow; Mrs. Duncan Buchanan of Rolo, Sask., and grs. John Loadman, of Battle- foret i Sask. The deceased was a mem- ber; of the C.O.F. and members of the order attended the funeral in a body 'The rnneral was held on Monday af- ternoon, interment in the Exeter cemetery. Mrs. Goodison and children of Sarnia are visiting Mrs. 1). Johns of town. The Trivitt Memorial church held e successful Hallowe'en Supper on Friday even3ng last.

The annual High School "At Home" was held in the Assembly Hall of the school on Hallowe'en, October 31st, was the greatest suc- cess in years. The hall was beauti- fully decorated with evergreens and oak leaves and held the suggestion sloe of parliament and the Sunday of Hallowe'en, by a number of pump- services, kin lanterns, black cats and witches, which were arranged in various places about the room. 'The recent installation of the hydro, added greatly to the attractiveness and brilliance of the occasion, The chair was occupied by Mr. Gladman in his usual genial manner and the evening opened by the sing- ing of "God Save the King", after which the chairman gave a brief ad- dress. The programme eousistecl of solos by Miss Edna Follick and Miss Margaret Moodie; 'a vocal duet by Misses Thelma and Mae Ford; a boys' chorus; an instrumental solo by Miss Dorothy Baikwill; readings by Miss Verna Walker, Miss Nellie Petty and Mr. Maurice Ford; and a three -act play entitled, "How are you going to keep them down on the farm," composed by Mr. Charles Ford, and acted by the writer, his brother Maurice, Miss Dorothy Balk - will and Mr. Earl Russell. The var- ious members called forth the hearty applause of the audience. During the evening, Rev. Wilson of James St. Methodist church was called to the platform, and besides expressing much praise for those who took part, gave a very practical and instructive talk to the pupils. Perhaps the most important event of the evening was the promenades If one could judge from the smiling faces of the boys and girls. During the evening a dainty lunch was ser- ved and the final promenade brought the event to a close. • It was indeed encouraging to the pupils to see a number of the mem- bers of the school board present on the occasion, and gratifying to see aur worthy principal moving thru the crowd enjoying himself so thor- oughly with the young people, BOYS* PARLIAMENT The Boys' Parliament to be held" in James St, Methodist church on.
