From this historic field,fourteen
men have gone forth to preach, the
gospel and two others aro now .pre-
paring for it. Remembering the won-
derful past and still full of hope, the
people decided, under the leadership
of their • pastor, Rev. J, W. Hibbert,
to fittingly recognize the history of
Methodism for 50 years and plans
were made for the now historic Jubi-
lee Services. We had ideal weather;
visitors came from far and near,
'Tho West, Detroit, Goderich, Toron-
to, ..Wingham, . Woodstock, Trow-
bridge, Bolgrave, Brussels and many
other places were represented. .'The
unity of the congregation, the tact
and enthusiasm of the pastor, the
presence of former pastors and Work-
ers, the• splendid work of the choir
under the leadership of Mr.- 0, An-
drew, all conspired to make the effort
a success. Especially the presence .of
two distinguished preachers — Rev.
Thos. Kelly, D,D,, of Philadelphia,
who 55 years ago was converted in
Gorrie and half a century ago was' re-
commended for the ministry by this
Quarterly- Boa,rd, acid Rev. Robert

The banquet , on Fridayy night will
long be remembered on aceonnt of the
tangible expression of • gratitude,:
which was displayed. After a bounti-
ful repast provided by the ladies, the
auditorium of the church was literally
packed with an intensely interested
audience. Mr. Anson Spotton, Mayor
of Harriston, occupied the chair with
dignity and ease. The musical part of
the program• was pleasing: Miss Mc-
Cormick of Trowbridge won favor ;
Mrs. Rayson of Harriston had a most
pleasing voice and her splendid ap-
pearance made her a favorite ; Miss

The interest centred about the debt ;
for . sometime a debt of $2,000 had
rested upon the parsonage. Could it
be lifted ? Under the eloquent appeals
of Rev. Dr. Kelly and Dr. Forbes,
$2100 was subscribed. No wonder the
people sang "Praise God from whom

East Wawanosh,
East Wawanosh lost one of its few
remaining pioneers, when. Ann Jane
Golley, relict of the late John Bee-
croft, sr,, lot 31, con. 8, passed away
at the advanced ago of 81 years and
0 months, - Death came peacefully at
0.30 Saturday evening, July 1, when
one of the most useful lives terrain.:
ated, having devoted her usefed life
to her children, grandchildren and
great .grandchildren. Deceased was
a life-long member and worshipper
at Brick church, where she was a reg-
ular adherent until last August, when
during a church service she had a
fainting spell and was never after-
wards able to leave her home.. For
eleven months she was a patient suf-
ferer ; her quiet moments filled with
thoughts • of eternity, about which she
was so thoughtful during her entire
life. As a mother she was beloved by
all her children and children's child-
ren. She was ever more thoughtful
for others than for herself ; her's was
a life of true self-denial. Deceased,
with her husband and four small chil-
dren, settled at her late home 48 years
ago, when the majority of East Wa-
wanosh was bush, and ever since she
has passed heroically through the
vicissitudes of the pioneer. She was'
a woman of special endurance, being`
endowed with a spirit of true deter-
mination and motherly love. Her
life has been a constant example of
what a great spirit can do. As the
mother of ten children, she keenly
realized the responsibility of the home,
and ; from the married altar to the
grave she was a true helpmate to
her late husband, She was ,of Irish
birth, being born in Belfast, Ireland.
As a young. girl she emigrated with
her father, brothers and sisters to
Canada, settling near Oakville. Later
with her friends she settled near Lon-
don, where she, was wedded, and later
lived in 11ieGillvray. Forty.- Dight
years ago husband and wife followed
the trend of settlement into the Hur-
on -tract, where she has resided ever
Once. . She leaves two daughters—
Mrs. Chas. Campbell and Mrs. henry
McGee ; also three sons—John Bee-
croft on the old homestead, Thomas
Beecroft of Barrie, Ont., and David
Beecroft of Chicago, Ill, Her life has
been an example to all.

Dudley Holmes
T. A. Morton
R. Vanstone
The Editor'of The Advance.
Dear Sir :—An article appeared in
last week's issue of your great family
newspaper under the heading of the
W. 0. T. U. of Wingham which I
think cannot go unchallenged, for •a
more scurrilous, 'scandalous article
t don't remember of ever reading in
any respectable newspaper, even the
"yellow" journals as a . rule would
hesitate before issuing such an , un-
justifiable censure and libel, on the
good name of the citizens of the town
f Wingham. Emanating from the
source to which it is accredited, ono
naturally expecte something more sis-
terly. I think myself, that this 'Wo-
man's Christian Temperance Union of
your fair town have made a mistake
in adopting the naive they have; the
organization should be called by an-
other name, if the article referred
to is a sample of their efforts for the
best welfare of the great Temperance
Cause.
The article starts off very well, riot
many would take exception to that
first paragraph, but when it makes
the charge that "the bar represents
the vicious and degraded element, be-
ing supported by demagogues, pot -leg
politicians, corrupt officials, toughs,
bums, rowdies, harlots, gamblers and
criminals," such statements are base,
slanderous and • criminally libelous.
This great Woman's Christian Tem-
perance Union most certainly have
a high opinion of their fellow citizens
when they class them in such a cate-
gory of baseness, filth, and crime.
My dear Christian women ; how
many of you have fathers, brothers,
husbands, sisters and other 'near and
dear ones whom you have stigmatized
in your category of filth? I, person-
ally, know many among them who
patronize the bar occasionally, but I
have yet to meet any among them
who could even Masquerade hi the
characters accredited to them by't you.
Your harlots, If yon, have any in.
your fair town,. are not patrons'of any
bar, I am quite sure, as' women never
are allowed in bars to be served;with
liquors, and boys also are most strictly
prohibited and 'kept out of the tear in
this town. - • '
Yon say the bar destroys the virtue
of girls—a most scandalous charge—
shame, shame ' upon you. You know
sir, as well as l and .ethers, that the
bar is not to, blame for .the .morals or
downfall of girls ; 'hut the 'blame fn
such cases must be laid at the door of
their parents or guardians or to their
own uncontrollable .passions. Yon
know, sir, and. an editor• of a great
family newspaper like the Wingham
Advance should be in -a• posistivn to
verify or qualify this statement, vi',.
that many parents and guardians al-
low their girls too much freedom of a
certain nature. Instead of keeping
them a little closer in check they are
allowed to deck themselves out in the
very latest prodnctions of the tilillin•
ers' art and sport themselves around
the streets, and especially about train
time the railway station Is their ren-
devous, to attract the attention of the
young men with the result Of deterior-
ation of morals and loss of virtue.
Well you know sir, that human na-
ture is still human nature as in times
of old, and these things will he done
as of yore, and when girls lose their
virtue and good morals the Christian
Woman's Temperance Union blame it
on the 'Ara Rot ! •
,Inst one thing More I wish to eay,
and that le, the hotels of the town are
conducted on as clean moral prinetples
as any other house in the town and
there are employees in these hotels,
young women of as pure moral ehar-
aster, and clean virtne,as are. to .be
found among the beet of the W. C. T.
U., and young men who are working
to the bars of these hotels. Whohave
the right to the hast respect any
other citizen. These hotel -keepers
have to pay a very largo suin of
money for the privilege of keep-
ing the bar In their houses; at the
came time they have to eonforrn to a
very° strict law which was meetly ail
made by the temperance people.
e 1
Bence it is very ill-timed, edm un-
, est
christian like to try to place the blame
upon the bar for the immoral oonaluot
of a few fallen ones, and a few others
who can't help being what they are.
Y onre Truly',
J'. W. Beetttta.
