The Y. P. 1:;: of tike North Side
'United church was 'beld as usua'I on
Tuesday evening. As this will be the
last League meeting until September
the Young People invited the congre
gati•on for a social 'evening. After

in costume, also a piano solo by

a violin selection by -14i and Mrs

LA, pleasing. feature of the evening
was the presentatiott of a purse con
tanning $181 to our worthy pastor' and
his wife, 'Mr. and Mrs, Irwin. The ad-
dress was read by 'Dr..Ha.rburn and
the presentation made, 'by Mr. fro.
Finlayson, Mr. and Airs.Irwin re-
plied in a very pleasing way, showing
their appreciation, After partaking of
a bountiful lunch and spending a soc-
ial hour, the evening was closed by
tinging "God be with us till we meet
again.”
Rev, IR, Fulton Irwin,
Dear Sir and Pastor:—As this is to
be the last social- occasion on which
you will meet with your people be-
fore ydttr pastorate closes in this
pace, we feel that we cannot let the
o nasion pass without some reference
to your work with us during the past
four years. During this 'time we have
listened with pleasure and much pro-
t , to your preaching. In this respect
you :have been to us both preacher
and teacher, and"it is with great satis-
faction that we have found the funda-
mental truth of the 'Holy Writ well
stressed and adhered to: As a pastor
your visitations have been helpful and
have provided •comfort and hope at,
suchtimes as they were most needed,
'Moreover, we have never found- yon
absent front your work here, for, dur-
ing the en'ire four years you renounc-
ed even your annual month's ho'l'idays
during the summer in order that the
work—of the church might continue
tvithout interruption. In the Sunday
school and Bible class we have felt
the value of sound and faithful teach-
ing, ,which will surely have an endur-
ing effect on all who 'have been pri-
vileged to hear. The Junior and Sen-
ior'Leagues also have expressed their
appreciation of their pastor so that
old and young have profited by your
presence.
'Altogether we regard your pastor-
ate
astorate very highly, and as very success-
ful, indeed.
Finally, if we have succeeded in
saying the good things- we wish to
say, it is our expressed' wish that in,
and through it all your good wife,
lies.' Irwin, may ,'have a generous
share, In every department of work
she 'has undertaken, signal success has
been achieved, and her quiet and°win-
ning ways, have made for her a host
of friends 'in whose memory she will
ever live.
In conclusion, with the best of
good wishes for you both, we ask
you to accept this purse, trusting that
it may provide something that will
permanently link you up' in a kindly.
way with your friends in this congre-
gation. Signed by C. H. Holland, F.

FOOTBALL
(By "Spec,")
Winthrop and Kinburu met again,
Wednesday, June 16th, at Winthrop,
ILinburn winning by _3 clear goals.
The game was not of the usual high
order, both teams playing -below
their form. Winthrop played a very
poor game, and Kinburn deserved
their win. 'Govenlock missed a pen-
alty for the losers. •" Kinburn have
now won 4 straight -garnet.
'Winthrop and St. Columban met'•at`
Winthrop, Monday Juine'21st, and a
hard fought game took place A v ry
'Strong wind,,made 1t hard
'playing.
Winthrop won the toss and had the
advantage of the Wind the first half,
but did not make useofit and' there
was moc f
sore St. Ca umbar defeind-
ingin fine style 'In 'the 'second half
it was mostly St. Colutnban's game
and they scored two goalq, thus win-
ning 2 to 0. Dill, for _ St. Columban,
was in great form.
'St. Columban and Kinburn met at
'<inborn Friday, June 18th, the game
being a tie, 0-0, St. Columban thus
breaking Kinbyrn's winning streak,
Fitzgerald it St., Columbauu .•goal
was excellent. 'At times it(,looked as.
if St, Columbam would snatch a vic-
tory, their forwards trying hard for a
tinning goal. Kinburn forwards were
put o11 their game time after time,
and could not get going. St. 'Colum -
bait defence played at the top of their.
form. Great credit is due to all St.
CCoittinban`team for their display and
for taking the first point from Kin -
burn this season. St. Columban has
now a. good team and should get
second place.
STRATFORD BAND HERE.
Lasa Saturday and Sunday Seaforth.
was favored with a visit from the
Salvatio n Army Stratford Silver
band. The 'Band arrived by bus
about 6 o'clock and after a march,
had supper together at 'the S.A. hall,
which was donated by friends in
totvin. A full programme of services
was held during the week -end Con-
sisting of street meetings Saturday
night and Sunday morning also ser-
vices in the hall which Vere very
well attended. In addition to this
two concerts were enjoyed by large
crowds in Victoria Park in the after-
noon at 3.15 and ni'gh't at 8,15. Cap-
tain Tidman and Lieut. 'Huson ex-
tend to all who helped make the visit
of the 'Band a success a word of ap-
preciation and the band left with the
kindest `thoughts of Seaforth.
GYPSIES FORBIDDEN.
The gypsy camps have appeared
on the roadsides again: These sum-
mer tourists, .who :were never aver:
come guests, have formed a habit (or
a system) of always locating in one
spot in a tonality, until/it has become
a nuisance. McKillop township has
passed a bylaw prohibiting gypsy
camps on the roads of the township,
Last year there were seventeen en-
campments during the season at Mr.
Win, Deyereaux's corner on 'the
I-Iuron road,: a mile and a quarter
cast of Seaforth, and there are inany
other spots similarly visited. The
gypsies are of slight benefit to the
community as they pay practically no
taxes, get free use of the roads and
free forage for their 'horses and
sometimes get into trouble with the
residents. Their presence along a
lonely road at night is an. annoyance
to passing traffic.
