Senior, Clerk RESULT OP PAIR DAY RACES e following is a result of the races at the Exeter Fair, Wednes- day of last week. who have visited Europe this suni. mei', visiting Holland, Belguim France and the British Isles, may feel that they have travelled distance, but the magnitude of this fair Canada of ours is brought home to us when we realize that Mr. and Miss Jeekell have travelled many more miles and have not left the boundaries of our own Dominion. They had covered over 8000 miles. As for the scenery the European vis- itor saw much of hiPtoric inter- est, but for natural beanty, thhree is little, if anything that can surpass the beauties of the scenery through which' Mr. and Miss J eckell have travelled this summer. 1VIany'of our residents have been through to the coast and know something of the grandeur of the scenes through the Canadian Rockies but few have ex- tended their Journey north over an- other scenic route that rivals any- thing else for beauty and journeyed into the heart of that land of long clays and warm summer sunshine that is so often erroneously thought of aa the land of continuous cold t and ice. Our idea of the Yukon is much the same that many Europeans t hold of Canada, as a whole. 17Vhile in the Yukon Mr. Jeckell tells us Iv that he saw the most beautiful flow- s ers. Some of the pansies grown in there are among the fineat ',he had. f ever'seen. Vegetable growth in the -,ar Yukon is rapid due largely to the T warmth of the sun in summer and ti the moisture that comes from the th ground owing to the frost going so RI, deep in winter. Navigation in the a north is open. from. May to Septerab- ov th ular trip in summer for tourists es- It pecially for those from the United B States and bookings are made early ar the year as early as January and til are filled up long before the season th opens. Luxuriously -furnished u steamers, with every comfort and th Y for the Autunm District Meet- , sense, the program of`the meeting waS in every detail interesting and same highly- inspirational. 'The, finan- cial condition of the churches as ported, was most gratifying and objectives for the various connexi al funds including Church -Uni were, received with loyal unani ity. The Department of Religi Education was represented by R G. C. Gifford, of Lucan. The Educ ional Department was sapported ReV, (Dr.) Dobson, of Alma, Colle and Rely% F. E. Clysdale. The M sionary Department was represent by the president of the Conferen W..I. Mortimore, missionary on fu lough frora China. Mr. Uren gave very interesting sketch of pioue iVIethodism in Ontario., giving eloq afr, Mortimore's address on Chin was' the deliverance of a real maste interpreting the conditions on th frontier of our naissionary work i China, and giving a most encoura ing picture of an indigenous, sel propagating Church, actually uncle he control of native Christians. The Social Service Department o he Church was represented by Rev W. E. Millson, Field Secretary. Mr lillson's evening address was trong prohibition appeal. He re- inded the audience that since the irst prohibition law was passed we ere under Gov't ,controI. The 0 . A. is a system of government con- •ol. He commented on the fact at never had the people `of Ontar- nce referendum but they had voted erwhelmingly dry. He reminded e people again: that money . was uring into Ontario to -day from aly, France and Great ritain to defeat prohibition in' Onta io and that every brewer and dis- ler in the world had their eyes on is province. ,Answering the arg- inent that there is more- chinking an ever Mr. yillson asked how many saw the evnience of it pube firdiainkenness, and stated' that the breweries of Ontario in 1914 produc- ed 124,000,000 gallons of liquor and in 1923 only 6, 200,000 gallons and the latter included the 23h per cent beer which is allowed by the 0. T. A, Perhaps the most significant state-, naent of the speaker was his quota- tion of the Attorney -General, Mr. Nickle—"I hope that the people of Ontario will give us a further chance to show that we can and will 'enforce the Act; and Mr. Nickle's statement is significantly supported by the pledge of the Premier — "If the pepple of Ontario will sustain the 0. T. A. it will be honestly enforced and its weaknesses strengthened," Th.e issue is very clear, the ballott is very simple, there is only one , question to answer "wet or dry."
