H. Golding; ,-"Mr. Rus- sell Bolton, President of Seaforth Agricultural Society, R.R. #1, Dub- lin, Ontario. Dear Russell: During the years that I was Mayor of •our Town and ever since I have repre- sented our constituency in the Feder- al field, I have been making an an- nual contribution to our Seaforth Fall Fair. While I do not wish to curtail my annual contribution I have decided to present a trophy to, the agricultural society. This trophy will be for the best showman in the Junior Baby Beef Club of Huron and Perth Counties to be .competed for annually at the Seaforth Fall Fair. I believe this should prove to be an incentive, and an encourage- ment to our young people who are interested in the breeding and show- ing of good stock. It should help also to 'increase the attendance and give added interest to our Fair which has shown narked ' improve- ment during' the last few years. I sincerely hope that the donation of this trophy for the purpose as above stated will be of assistance in the ef- fort to make our Fall Fair a real success. Sincerely yours, Senator W. H. Golding, The Senate, Ottawa." MRS. MARGARET MILLER HONORED ON BIRTHDAY Mr. and Mrs. Win.

The ehurch was beautifully decorated with flowers. At the mor- ning service a basket of flowers was dedicated by Rev. R. Duncanson, minister of Cromarty congregation, to the pioneers, who with a great faith and earnest labour, gave us a church of which we are justly proud. During the dedication one verse of the hymn "For All the Saints who from Their Labours Rest", was sung. Another basket of flowers was from the funeral of the late James Norris, Mitchell, a former member of Cromarty church, who had planned' to be at Cromarty for this occasion but God had called him to his rest. Rev. R. E. Dennys, of Toronto, a former minister of Cromarty, was guest minister, who preached the sermon taking his text in the morning from Joshua 4:6, re- lating how the twelve tribes of Israel were instructed to each carry a stone from the river Jordan and ga- ther then into one pile; in the same manner our forefathers had gather- ed the stones to build the churches, and woe unto us if our children should have occasion to ask what these stones meant. During the service the choir with the direction of Mrs. Ken McKellar•, organist and leader, rendered the anthem, "0 Magnify the Lord." Mr. Ernest Gra- ham of London, a former member of Cromarty, rendered two solos. The Cromarty finale quartette com- posed of Robert Laing, Eldon Allen, Frank Stagg, Ernest Templeman, sang "The Beautiful Land." After morning service lunch was served under the statelymaple trees in front of the church. This was unique and will not be, forgotten by most everyone present. As the people ate their lunch served by the ladies of the congregation they visited with one another, renewing old acquain- tances and occasionally you would hear the remark, "Do you remem- ber?" from some one who may have been away for several years. The guest register showed visitors from New. Westminster, B.C., London, Wyoming, Woodbridge, Seaforth, Hensall,. Tiverton, Paisley, Chelsea (Mich:), Belmore, Detroit, Brant- ford, Harriston, Komoka, St. Pauls, Woodham, Galt, St. Thomas, Strat- ford, Toronto, Wallaceburg, Mitch- ell, Munro, Staffa. At the evening service Rev. R. G. McKay of Tiverton, a former Cro• rnarty minister, read the scripture from 1 Peter 2. Rev. George Lamont of Mitchell, a former member of the congregation, led in prayer and Rev. D. B. McKay of Knox, Strat- ford, brought greetings from the Stratford Presbytery. Rev. R. E. G. Dennys took his text from .1 Peter 2-9, and he enlightened the people with a wonderful history of the Presbyterian Church and also the Cromarty Church. During the ser- vice the choir rendered the anthem, "Hark, Hark, My Soul." The quer- tette sang "Jesus Saviour Pilot Me" and "Nearer My God to Thee." Let- ters of regret in not being able to be present were received from Dr. Mar- garet Patterson of Toronto, a for- mer member, and Mrs. D. M. Rit- chie, a former matron of the manse, whose memories of Cromarty seem quite precious.
