Refreshments will be servedin the basement, after which a progrmme of old-time songs, readings, etc. will be given by talent from Wingham, Jamestown and other places.

A., the popular pastor of the Presby- terian church here for the past fifteen years, The reverend gentlemaa has a splendid record as preacher and pastor and his progressiveness in church build- ing and improvements to church pro- perty are generally recognized. His services as Clerk of Maitland Presby- tery were most efficiently performed. Mrs. West has very energetically se- conded her husband in many avenues of usefulness. The desire of securing High School advantages for his children would be the inducement to accept a call, Bluevale and Eadies' would be sorry to have to say good-bye to Rev. and Mrs. West. He certainly deserves a good promotion as he. is a persistent and consistent worker.—Brussels Post. A pleasant time was spent by the members of the Ladies' Aid and Mis- sionary Societies of Knox Church when Mrs. J. C. Johnston, who is about to severe her connection with the societies was presented azith a beautifully illum- inated address and Hall Clock of Mission design. The address was read by Mrs. W. Maxwell, President of the Ladies' Aid, and the presentation was made by Mrs. W. J. West, President of the Missionary Society. Mrs. Johnston, in a few appropriate words thanked the ladies for their kind remembrance, re- ferred to the pleasant relations with members of both societies and closed by extending a hearty invitation to all to visit her in her new home in Saska- toon. The following is a copy of the address :— To MRs. J. C. JOHNSTON : — We, the officers and members of the Ladies' Aid and Missionary Societies of Knox Church wish to express to you our regret at the loss we shall sustain by your departure. Youhave been one of our most faithful members. Con- stant in attendance. Cheerfully ful- filling the duties you were called upon to assume. and always interested in the welfare of our Church. We valued your co-operation and beg you to accept this gift as a token of friendship and as a memento of your association with the Ladies' Aid and Missionary Societies. REV. W. J. WEST, Pastor. MRS. WM. MAXWELL, Pres. Miss M. COLLIE, Secy. of Ladies' Aid Society. MRs. W. J. WEST, Pres. MiSS M. COLLIE, Secy. of Missionary Society. Bluevale, Nov, 5th, 1912.

New Post Officea, During August, September and Oct. 170 new postoffices were opened in Can- ada, the majority being in the Prairie Provinces, to keep pace with the tide of settlement. The present Postmaster General has sanctioned for the new offices such inelegant names ,as Dirt Hills, Ground Hog, Molly Gibson, Need - more and Ferguson Flats. A happier choice is seen in such names as Sunkist, Homeside and Esperance. During the quarter some seventy postoffices were closed, of which thirty were in Ontario. An Editor's Duties.

C. Rockwell Sunny South Company, the show that leaves you laughing when they say"good night" will appear in the Opera House, Wingham. Monday evening, November 18th. This company was seen here about two years ago and those who were in attendance pronounced it one of the most complete and capable that ever appeared here. This season it is absolutely new and up-to-the-minute in every detail. It is characteristic throughout, being a mixture of fun, melody and dancing, consisting of all the features peculiar to the negro in Dixie Land, presented by negroes of the cultured and educated class, free from vulgarity, and objectionable fea- tures, at the same time sparkling with wit and good hnmor. Comedy is all that is aimed at and nothing else is reached bar some very clever singing, dancing and thrilling specialities, which will make the audience sit up and take notice. It is a snappy, gingery, enter- taining and well calculated to drive away the blues. Dating from the open scene until the final fall of the curtain there is not a moment when some of the numerous cast are not occupied rendering matters pleasing to the audi- ence. The Olio is composed of sev- eral high-grade vaudeville stunts. They are the kind that not alone please 'but have merit as well. The organization is accompanied by a solo concert band and a superb orchestra. The band will head the Koontown par- ade, taking place at noon. The prices of admission have been placed at 25, 35 and 50 cents. Seats are now selling at McKlbbon's Drug Store. • Unanimous Verdict. Newspaper publishers and citizens generally throughout the Dominion are unanimous in their opinion that the picture entitled "Mother's Treasures," given with The Familyerald and Weekly Star of Montreal, is season, is a most delightful and,beautiful sub- ject. Here is the opinion of one pub- lisher: " 'Mother's Treasures,' is a marvel of beaut he subject is one that will have a dency to strength- en home ties. We, in,, the same busi- ness, wonder how you can afford to give such value in pictures besides the vast amount of good things in The Family Herald and Weekly Star." Signed, E. W. Richards, The Mirror, Millbrook. No home in Canada should be without this beautiful picture. One dollar pays a full year's subscription to The Family Herald and Weekly Star, including the picture, which is ready for framing, size 23 by 29 inches. It is a big dollar's worth, indeed. He Met His Match. A certain gentleman of the Hebraic l persuasion, feeling exceedingly unwell, inquired of a friend whom he should consult, and was recommended to a West -end specialst. "Is he very expensive?" asked the patient; "!rum, no; he'll charge you a guinea for the first visit and half a ,guinea afterwards." ISo the invalid went off to the neigh- borhood of Harley Street and upon be- ing admitted to the consulting room, slammed down half a guinea, accom- panied by the remark: "Well, doctor, here we are again!" The doctor calmly picked up the half- ' soverign and the sixpense, opened a drawer in his desk, placed them in it, and locked the drawer. The patient awaited events. I "Well, aren't you going to examine me?" he said at length. i "No," said the specialist; "there's no need to do it again, Just keep on with the same medicine.
