LAST OIe HALF HOLIDAYS.
Wednesday, August 25th, is the
last of theweekly half holidays in
Exeter for 1920. The short break in
the weakly activities by those who
are tied tip to business six days in
the week, is much appreciated and
the end of the half holiday comes
all too soon.. The Times would like
to see the half holiday continued
thru September. For all the half
holiday is not a time for sport, lost
gives to many the opportunity of
accomplishing many things that
might otherwise be left undone,
STAPP CHANGES
There have been' several changes
011 the staff of the Canadian Bank of
Commerce in Exeter during the past
week. Mr. C. R. Howard, accountant,
has received notice of his transfer to
the branch at Sault Ste. Marie and
Mr. J. M. Bray. of Ottawa, has taken
his place Here, Miss M. Wood has re-
signed her position and her place
has been taken by Mr. E. J. R. Ber-
tram, of Orangeville. Mr. Howard
and Beverley Acheson have both
been laid up during the week with
the plumps which they contracted mit
Grand Bend.
POTATOES IN PLENTY
Tidings of a record potato crop
are drifting in from all corners of
Ontario. From all parts of the Prov-
ince reports indicate that there will
be spuds in plenty for the suffering
city dwellers, who in months past,
have had to pay high prices for the
privilege or having the humble pota-
to grace their tables. They will wel-
come the news, for a record crop
should mean lower prices anti. boun-
tiful supplies. In sight of the great-
est potato crop in history, Ontario
can look for relief from the famine
prices which have ' been prevailing
and the poor man and his family
will be able to secure plentiful sup-
plies of this, our most popular tub-
er.

TO THE MEMORY OF
REV. JOHN G. YELLAND
O servant of the most high God
Who vvallted the path His Son had
trod;
The weary way of toil and strife,
And yet, the road to peace and life.
'A noble brow, so pure and high,
.A. voice proclaiming to the sky
The Son of God, who came to save,
The blood red sins of man to laver
Of righteousness a preacher 'true,.
Who pled with evil mento sue
From Hint so filled with truth and
grace,
•And thus to see His smiling face.
Of humble lowly contrite mien,
He ever to his friends (lid seem,
To live so near his Master's throne,
A foretaste of his heavenly home.
His years of faithful toil shall last
):n grateful lives, as time Inay pass,
His monument shall ever shine
In lives which linger long as time.
There is no death to one so true,
The eternal years shall yet pursue,
In gifts o'f wisdom for his mind,
In .Christ his fullest riches find.
Honours roost true rest not With bran
But One niiore true shall ever Scan,
A record, ever true and kind,
And in His crown rich jewels shall
sh ne,
