To Mr. and Mrs. Grasby,
Dear Friends :-We, your neigh-
bors and friends, have met here to-
night to bid you farewell and to
wish you many years of happiness
and prosperity in your new home,
During the fourteen years you
have lived in our midst, we have
found you both to be good neigh-
bors, always willing to lend a help-
ing hand, in a cheerful way which
made it much more acceptable.
In 'a social way, too, we have en-
joyed the cheeriness of ,your Home
hero. Many a plasant evening :we
have spent by your fireside. Just
here Memory lingers over other oc-
casions, of a happier nature, when
we met together here to celebrate
with you the wedding receptions of
your daughters, and with music and
song wish them good speed on their
way.
These happy times we will never
forget and whenever wo think of
the Grasby family it will be to as-
sociate with them, good -will, cheer-
fulness and loyal friendship in tha
neighborhood. Our wishes to you
are well expressed in this little
poem: -
The song -bird seeks it's nest,
The sun sinks in the west;
And kindly thoughts are, speeding
otit to you.
May
oy with you abide,
May Hope bo aye your guide,
And Love proteot you all life's jour-
ney through.
That you may always remember
your friends on the 2nd line of Mors
cis, we ask you, Mr, and Airs. Greg -
by,
to accept this Coleman lamp and
you, Mrs. Grasby, this fountain pen.
May you be spared many years to
enjoy them.

Address and Proeentation:-La:,t
Thursday ev@Ding the ratepayer, of
S. S. No. 9, Morris, gave Miss Clara
McGowan an unusual, but neverthe-
less delightful surprise, when over
sixty people gathered at the 1tonee of
Robrt and Mrs. Bell, to show their
appreciation of her services as teach-
er in their school. Mr. Robert
Shortreed addressed theratluring,
expensing in a few well chosen
words the purpose of their meeting
together, at the close of which Miss
Katie Laidlaw read the following
address and bliss Mary Kelly pre-
sented Miss McGowan with a beau-
tiful set of French ivory.
Dear Miss McGowan: -We, the rate
payers of School Section No. 0;
Morris, have assembled to -night to
do honor to one who is so deserved-
ly popular. It is customary to pre-
sent an address and a gift to a re..-
tiring teacher but we think Ulla is
a fitting oportunity to step in in ad-
vance of he custom by showing our
appreciation of your valued services
while still receiving the benefir. of
them. The school is an important
factor in the lives of the children, as
a teacher, next to the parents, has
a wonderful influence in Moulding
the lives of the young . Dr, Ecrr-
ton Ryerson, who has thoroughly
studied the question of educatio,l,
has said that it should be es neces-
sary as light, as common as water,
and as free as air. - Of course, it
cannot be exactly free, but we fully
understand that Education among
the people is the best security of It
good Government and constitutional
iberty. All this, then, has Its foun-
dations in the school with its cap-
able teacher. In our case we feel
that the children are not oafs get-
ting an Education in the 'ordinary
lessons, but are being trained to
take a creditable place on the plat-
form, as was exemplified :at the re-
cent entertainment.
We thank you. for your efforts on
I behalf of the pupils and also for
tate assistance you have rendered to
the grownups. Last year then we
decided to send out invitations to
the Old Boys' and Girls' Reunion,
and to make plans to welcome them
to their old surroundings and also
to entertain them while in our midst,
your time and talents which were so
cheerfully given, formed a large
contribution to thes plenclid success
of the Re -union.
As a recognition of your faithful
attention to duties, and your willing-
ness
illingness to do more than duty requires,
we ask you to accept this comb,
brush and mirror, and hope you may
be long spared to use them and that
they will ever serve as a rcm:ndcr
of your friends at Button's. May
success attend your efforts and 111i1y
God richly bless you in the years to
1 come.
Signed in behalf of the section,
Joe Bewley,
Fran!( Bell,
John McAether.
Jan. 13 1927,
Although taken completely by
surprise, Miss McGowan expressed
her gratitude for the kindness shown
her, also her appreciation for the
, co-operation given her that helped
and encouraged her many times.
A few others expressed their sen-
timents, and a vote of thanks was
given Mr. and Mrs. Bell for the use
of their fine home. An enjoyablo
evening was spent in games and
dancing, at close of which a tasty
lunch was served.

counsel from Mrs. Geo. Backer, sr.,

ance from Mrs. Dark. Mrs. Stanley
Wheeler, the Misses McCracken and
others, so altogether the cake was
