The annual meeting .of the Crom- arty, Presbyterial}: church was held'. in the church last Thursday. The fin- ancial reports state it has been one of the best years' in the history of the congregation.

Thames Road Several of the leen of this vicinity are taking advantage of the agricul- tural course being held in Exeter now. A few of the young ladies are also attending the course in Domes- tic Science. It's a good . thing to see, people interested in things that tend to improve their knowledge. Rev.

The Farmers' Club at Sexsmith held an interesting session at the school house on Monday evening when a debate was held, "Resolved that a Power and Light System are more beneficial on a farm than an Automobile." The ailirmative was taken by Beu. Case, Chas. Tuckey, and Miss Jeekeil, the negative 'by Geo. Penhale, Miss Case and Roger Northcott. The judges. decided . the negative. side won by three points. The school house was well filled and the debate was most interesting. A couple of weeks ago a grand re- ception was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. James Earl, Zion, in honor cif Mr. John Earl and bride, of Sea- forth, lately returned from overeaa. The hostess provided a bountiful supper for some 'forty invited guests. Atter supper a programme of speeches, songs and recitations were given, which was greatly enjoyed by all.

There was only one army ready at the begin - ;Ong of the war, it was the greatest army aver seen, thoroughly equipped from every standpoint. Serbia and Belgium had no chance against them but held them tack for two weeks. God knows what a difference it • made. France sent forward one half million men, short of many things but who had stolid determination to save their country or die. England sent their "contemptible little army" of eighty-two hundred thousand. Nothing moved on earth faster than than this little army which never lost it's morale. At the Marne when orders cane to take offensive there was no chance whatever. They were short of ainniu- nition, men and everything. Generals refer to the outcome as the iniraele of the war.
