Jim was been and grew to man- hood thee° and on New Year's Day. 1875, the fancily got together, Jim's father and another, two sisters, four brothers and himself. Au revoir waa said to Jim, who was to set out for the =goldefields of the Cariboo and to return within ten ,years—with 'a fortune, they all hoped. Jim did not make his fortune and he never went back. For 49 years he did not l'ea've the Cariboo until in the fall of 1924 he visited his sons, Russell, in Van- couver, and Cyril, in Astoria, Ore- gone • For more than 10 years before his death he was the only survivor of the family gathering of 1845•.

The Board of Trade of Prince George, which is midway between the big country of jasper National Park, Alberta, and the end of the Canadian National Railevays' line at Prince Rupert, Bit- till Columbia, sent out a circular stating that a party in Los Angeles was making inquiries for a regular supply of ;bear grease which he pro- posed to use for hair tonic. The par- ty in question was not particular whether the grease carne from black,. brown or grizzly bear. It turns out, however, that there was already a well developed markot for bear grease locally and shortly afterwards an advertisement appeared in: the local newspaper which reach as foie lows: "You do not need to send your bear grease _ to California.

Bray, manager of the Cana, dian Bank of Commerce here, form- erly of London, was called to Ottawr owing to the death of his father. What came near being a fatality occurred at the home of Mee Wilkin- son last week. Returning home on Friday from a lengthy visit, Mrs Wilkinson, who resides alone, found the house cold and damp. He under- took to put on a fire in the coal stove and was overcome by escaping gas. He had turned ,on the electric lights and when they remained on all Friday night and continued during Saturday neighbors became alarmed and notified Constable Ferguson who summoned County Constable Smith, The two officers went to the house, and, receiving no answer to their knocking, forced the door. When they got inside they found Mr. Wilkinson lying unconscious on a couch. Dr. Milne was called, who, after some time, succeeded in resus- citating the victim. Chief Ferguson found that the chimney of the house had become file ( led with ice, preventing the smoke and gas escaping. Mr. Wilkinson is gradually recovering. The Government snowplow op- erated on King's highway No. 4, be- tween Clinton and W'ingham for gnome days and mountains of snow are pil- ed on sections of this road. The people appreciate the action of the Government in putting this section of the highway in shape for car traf- fic. Ever since union was declared be- tween the former Methodist and Presbyterian churches efforts have been made here to consumate union between the two local churches, but all their efforts failed until a solu- tion was arrived at by means of an- other vote. St. Andrew's United took the in- itiative by taking a standing vote at their annual meeting which went un- animous, then Queen Street United held a vote by ballot which gave e substantial majority for uniting, Up to this time the question or which property was to be used had been the stumblingblock, :but last week the property committee of the Huron Presbytery came here and af- ter investigation decided that St. Andrew's manse was to be accepted and that for the next year the cone gregations should meet for the ,first six months, starting July, in Queen Street Church and for the next six months in St. Andrew's, which seems to be agreeable to all. After the term of six months in each church, the committee will meet and decide upon which church will be used per: momently. While Postmaster and Mrs. Bert Tasker and fancily ware visiting at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Campbell, East Wawan'osh, their eld- est son, Glen Tasker„ who was out., side, was attacked by Mr. Campbell's, dog, which, de a.••erose betwcon a pol- ice dog and a ,collie, and before the animal could' be stopped the boy had been badly cute around' the head and face. 'Mr. Teske:• also received' a coot near the eye, resulting in a. badly swollen .conchae% Glen load to be taken to the Wing- haan ;Hospital, where several stitches- were put in rho head and sellp, while lois form was severely lktcerated. The dog had never shown signs of nttecke. hog'persoes before and it is difficult to anomie for its outbreak at this time, as Glen had not molested him..

After ten minutes of fast play Combe and Streets worked a pretty combina- tion to beat Stade for the second counter. The period ran out with the score at 2.0 for, the homesters. Youngblutt and Combes got the only penalties in this period. As in the former game the Beavers came on the ice for the second stanza determined to recover their losses and in three minutes the Rennie bro, there combined to notch their first. goal. A taste of victory put new life into the team. Foster anti Lep- pard combined for the second counter to knot the score, the former scoring on Leppard's pass. In the dying moments of the period Youngblut put the Beavers in the lead, scoring from o scramble in front. The hone squad drew four penalties in this stanza — Streets, Bingeman 2, and Pickett; Culliton ,also spent two minutes in the penalty box. With a lead of one goal there was no holding the Beavers and Brawn in the Clinton goal, was bombarded mercilessly. The Colts at the same time were working hard and Stade turned aside some red -hots conning from pretty combinations and solo ef- forts, but they just could not get through his guard. Bueknam starred for the Beavers in all assist to Ren- nie's counter and a solo effort, shoot, hog the rubber into the net fn•om an offside face-off near the boards, The game finished with the Cubs three goals up and the score 5-�2.

TOWN LEAGUE The final games of the schedule were played in the town league last night. The first game played was between the Leafs and Senators which ended in a tie of 4-4, and in tieing this game the Senators quali- fied for a play-off birth, and the Leafs lost their chance. The second game was more or less a scoring jam- boree for the Canadiens, when they ran up a score of 13-4 on the deplet- ed Maroon team. Tib Kennedy score ed an even half-dozen goals, the mnost goals for any one player in one game this season. No doubt the large score was due to the fact that the Mary ocns did not need this game, being sure of a play-off ,position, and they were minus some of their best play- ers. The Maroons and Senators are the two high teams and earn the right to meet in the play-offs. • The Leafs opened the sooting in the first game, when Fulford let go and Levis failed to stop it. McClin- chey put the Leafs two up on a shot fronrthe blue line. Dixon scored the only goal for the Senators. In the second. McClinchey, scored again making the score 3.1, but Sen- ators cane back with two goals by Smith and Hoy to knot the count. About half -way through the last stanza i'lcClinchey scored his third goal and put his team on top, and they hung on desperately until about two minutes of the final bell, when C. Johnson .nicked up a loose puck and heat Wilson for the tieing. goal. The final score was 4-4. H. Johnston, Dixon, R. McDonald, Cook, McClin- chey and C. Johnston drew penalties. Line-up: Leafs: Goal, Wilson; defence, R. McDonald, Holmes; centre, Cook; wings, O'Brien, McClinchey; subs, Fulford, F. McDonald, Draper, E. Neilans. Senators: Goal, Loans; defence, Mc- Dougall, Coombe; centre, H. Johnston; wings, Brown, Dixon; subs, Lamp - man, C. Johnston, Smith, Hoy, For, rester. Canadiens opened the scoring in tine second game, with two goals by "Tib" Kennedy, both were lone rush- es acid were nicely executed. Maroons could not score, although they load some nice chances. This game, was very clean, no penalties beteg handed. out throughout the game. Cater opened the scoring for Mar - 00135 in the second period- and Mc- Donald tied :it up. Then Finch scored on a pass from Gliddon. Tib Ien- nedy scored again and his brother Doug. scored the nest one 011 a pass from Glidden, The period ended 5-2 .Maroons worked hard but there was nio, stopping these fast -stepping Canadians. Tib. TKennedy waltzed through and beat Livermore quite handily.. Then Cuch nor°, who we be lieve eves the hard luck maned. the night, finally scored, for Maroons, "Cuddy" hacl many chances but, luck was against him. Bartliff scored for Canadiens and Tib. Kennedy again went dashing through, Canadiens g p final counter. Bartliff and D. Ken) nedy wound up the largest score of the season and the Canadians won by a score of 13-4, . We saw three unusual incidents, one last week and two this week. Last week Hawkins in the Maroon net skated the full length of the ice with the puck, and last night both Livermore and Streets tried it, but were not as successful as Hawkins. The Line-up: Canadiens: Goal, Streets; defence, Tib. Kennedy, Gliddon; centre; El., liott; wings, D. Kennedy, Finch; subs, Bartliff, Hanley, Campbell, Judd.

ANDREW'S CONGRE- GATIONS, BLYTH (The following is the text of the findings sof a commission appointed by the IIuron Presbytery of the Uni- ted church at its recent meeting. The .Commission having visited the churches involved, having canvassed the whole situation and having carte fully looked over the church proper« ties, as ordered by the Presbytery, the Commissions has arrived at the following findings. (1) The Commission deeply appre- ciates the action of the congrega- tions of Queen St. and St. Andrew's ,in making request to the Presbytery to proceed toward the merging of the two ocngregations into one pas - t°721) (2) That the union of the congre- gations shall take place at the open- ing of the next Conference year. July let, 1934., (3) That St. Andrew's manse be used as the ministers residence, that the Queen St. parsonage be vacated and that the final disposal of the building and its furnishings be left in the hands of the Presbytery for the benefit of the united. ongregations. (4) That the church buildings be used as follows: viz, Queen St, clewreh to be used for the first six menthe from July 1st, 1934 to December 31st 1934, St, Andrew's church for the next sic months, January let, 1935 to July 1st, 1935.for all church pure poses, including the Sunday School and that at the expiration of this period the Commission will make it: l final decision 'as to the use of the church buildings for the future. (5) That the pastoral relation of both ministers shall terminate at the eiul of the present Conference year and another minister shall be settled over the united congregations. We base this finding on the fact that both ministers, in order to promote a favourable union, have expressed their willingness to accept another settlement.

Oliver have thus voluntarily placed themselves on the list of minister moving,, this Commission eespoctfullj requests the Conference Settlement Committee to see that the interests of these men are fully safeguarded. (7) The Commission desires to ex- press and hope that the consummat- ing of this union, at the request of the congregations, may result in a great spirituel blessing to all con- cerrned and 'that in its details it may be carried otit withsuch unanimity that the people will be impressed with the dignity and beauty of a large and hai:monious congregation of the United Church of Canada in Blyth and Community.
