HATS OFF TO McKILLOP
A couple of weeks ago we had a
big cucumber, weighing almost 4
pounds, grown by Mr. Thomas Fer-
guson. Last week Goderich also
found a big one. Thi` Goderich Star
says:
"Now we hear of one grown by A.
D. McLean, of Goderich, that went
50, ounces over the four pounds, and
measured 15 inches round one way
ancl 2834 inches titar,other. Who next?"
The Goderich • Signal remarks thus:
"The Seaforth News last week stated
that there was on display in its of-
fice window a monster cucumber
weighing only one ounce short of four
pounds and measuring 28 inches
1.334 inohes
around the long wayand
g
in circumference, -grown b
Mr.
y
Thomas Fergusonof Seaforth. 'It is
doubtful if there are any larger than
this one,' added The News, Well,
Goderich can 0o one better than this.
On Monday morning County Clerk
Holman brought into the Signa'l of -
Ice an immense cucumber grown by
Mr. A. D. McLean, of town. This
monster weighed 4 lb. 534 oz. and
measured 2834 inches around the long
way and 15 inohes in circumference.
Mr. Holman, having noticed the item
in the Seaforth paper, remarked that
Goderich being the larger town would
naturally grow larger cucumbers."
Last Friday Mr. J. W. Thompson,
con, 7 McKillop, brought to The' News
a hefty cucumber that weighs 434 lb.
and measures 32 inches x 13 inches
around. This specimen seemed to
have decided to stop growing when.

later she will be able to show it to her friends -
still as beautiful as when she received it.
Our lines of fancy pieces of silverware include the
newest designs in entree dishes, flower baskets, tea
sets, pie plates, casseroles, water pitchers, bread
trays, cake and sandwich plates and etc. In flat-
ware we have in stock the newestp atterns.
The Community Library of Entertaining, which
includes some of the fancy pieces boxed in attrac-
tive book -like cases, is truly one of the season's
"hits", and is a real solution to the Gift Problem.
We are -pleased to have you drop in and look
around our store.

to encourage systematic giving and of
measuring tip to the allocation. Sym-
pathy was expressed for the Wesley-
Willts organization but we are glad
to see how brave and courageous they
are and bow desirous they are to do
their part to keep the missionary work
alive..
In some Auxiliaries, the vice presid-
ents lead the meetings in turn, thus
giving more women the experience of
presiding.
It was inspiring to hear from each
and every auxiliary that they are try-
ing to measure up or go over the 'top
of its allocation.
The majority of .auxiliaries used
the study book last year and by the
eagerness which was shown at the
literature table many are planning to
commence our new :book, `Drums in
the Darkness," a study of the work in
Africa this year.

The afternoon session was called
together at 2 p.m. and the devotional
exercises were led by the Londesboro
and Burns Auxiliaries. Mrs. Childs,
of London, in her charming manner,
gave a most inspiring address present-
ing the needs of some of our foreign
mission fields. It truly made many
hearts long to help more in the Mas-
ter's vineyard.
Mrs. McIntyre, of Toronto, told a
real story of our Home Mission work.
'Short but interesting reports' were
given' by each of the Presbyterial Sec-
retaries present.
Resolution of thanks was tendered
to the church, the people and our
hostesses, the Wesley4Willts Auxiliary
