HAD PLEASANT EVENING
The "Covenant" adult Bible Glass,
of Wesley -Willis church held a social
evening last week in the Primary
Class room. There was a splendid
considering attendance,g the severe
weather, including some of the hon-
orary members and borne readers. A
program of contests and games, con-
ducted by Messrs. J. B. Lobb and R.
Lonsway, provided a very interesting
evening, a duet by Mrs. (Dr.) P.
Hearn and the pastor, Rev.. C. W. D.
Cosens, was very much appreciated.
The social committee furnished re-
freshments, which were also muob
appreciated and a vote of thanks was
tendered this committee, convened
by Mrs. (Dr.) Hearn. An
evening hymn and prayer by the pas-
tor concluded a delightful evening.
THE PLAY LAST WEEK
The. Dramatic Club of Ontario
Street United church sustained their
reputation for good plays with the
presentation on February 23rd, of a
Baker Royalty play, "Mary Mado
'Some Marmalade:* The pliob con-
cerns the Ridling family and their
reactions to sudden wealth. Mary.
made some marmalade and opened
roadside stand for its sale. Her ven,
tura brought her father's patent to
the ` notice of Carter Boatwright, a
wealthy schemer. The Ridlings be-
came wealthy, but because Mr. Rid -
ling was not the kind to stand ,rich-
es, a broken home is the result. The
family's difficulties are finally
straightened out in 'a way that brings
Thome a lesson to any_ audience.
The cast was well chosen, each
actor being particularly suited
to the part played. Will Ridling,
played by L. Pearson,. and his wife,
Charlotte, by Virginia Rozell, were
difficult roles well played. Miss
Rozell's interpretation of the gen
tle
another was well kept throughout
the play. Myrtle Armstrong was
consistently good in the role of Mary,
the ambitious and .loyal daughter of
the house, while Isabelle Holmes
played very' acceptably the part of
the worldly -minded older sister, es,
peciaily in the third act, when she
has become blind as the result of an
accident. Kenneth Elliott, as George
Ridling, the son of the family and
Elnora McInnis as his wife, Nita;
-were well suited to their respective
parts. T. Rutherford, as Ernest
Hadley, was quite convincing. Mr.
Chas. Elliott, as Carter Boatwright,
played an unsympathetic part well,
and was ably supported by Lillian
Manning as his sister, Marjorie Boat-
wright. The comedy element of the
play was well handled throughout by
the inimitable comic, Arthur Groves.
as Uncle Jasper Beekman, the hen•
peckedhusband of his managing
wife, Aunt Martina Beekman, play Interment' was made lin Clintor
ed by Mrs. H. C. Lawson.. Eddie' El -cemetery.
NOT A THOROUGHFARE
The attention of the public is once
more respectfully called to the fact
that there is no thoroughfare across
the grounds of St. Paul's church.
The congregation of St. Paul's are
justly proud ' of their church and
grounds, and take pains to keep them
in good condition and irreparable da-
mage can be done by tramping a
pathway through the snow at this
time. The public is requested to
please use the public sidewalk, where
no harm can be done.

evening in the juvenile role of Jim-

On the whole, the play was well
interpreted, the director, Mrs. F. G

the play many extra touches which
put the play well 'above the average

good attendance, in spite of the ex-
tremely cold weather.
PASSING OF A. MORRIS
On Thursday last the death occur-
red, after an illness of some months'
of Alexander G. Morris, for many
years a respected citizen of Clinton.
He was in his seventy-sixth year.
The late Mr. Morris was born at
Whitby, Ont., but came to Huron as
a lad. For many years he lived at
Stapleton, being employed at the salt
works, but latterly he had resided in
Clinton.. He was of a cheerful, com-
panionable disposition : and in the
summer spent much time on the bowl•
ing green with others who had time
for this pastime. He will be greatly
missed by his pals when thebowling
season comes around again. He was
a Presbyterian in religion and in poi,
itics a staunch Liberal.
Mr. Morris is survived by his wife,
who was formerly Miss Jane Shep-
pard, and one daughter, Jean, Mrs
Alex. Drummond of Detroit, and one
grandson. A brother and a sister,
both in the west, also survive.
The funeral took place from his
late residence, Wellington street, on
Saturday afternoon, the Rev. Dr.
Dougan of the Presbyterian'eburch,.
conducting the service. The ,pall,
bearers were: R. 3. ,Draper, W. H.
Cowan, T. Livingston, F. Rogerson,
L. Murch and W. A. Grant.
Out of town relatives and friends
here for the funeral included Mr. and
Mrs. Drummond and son, Detroit;
Mr. and Mrs. Robt. Sheppard, ,Mrs.
Mason and Mrs. Greensides, London.
"HAPPY" MAKING GOOD
The following is from "Chick's"
sport column in yesterday's Beacon -
Herald, and refers to a Clinton boy,
Ellwood Campbell, now playing with
the Midgets:
"And right now we want to pay
special reference` to "Happy" Camp-
bell, left winger par excellence of
the Midgets. Many of our readers
wanted to know why we used Camp-
bell's cut in our story, and we are
going to explain our reasons without
any quibbing. It is true he figured
in the scoring of but one goal in
Windsor,irrespective of that he
but p
was just about the best man on the
ice. Itis backehecking and defensive
play was superb, and he contributed
a big share in the Midget's victor. y
We venture the opinion that of the
Midgets meet St. Mike's, in the finals
that the noted 'Pep" Kelly of the Ir
ish will not score many goals while
he is being covered by Campbell."

eurred at the home of her son, Roy
