NOT PAYING ATTENTION.
An •amusing little incident which
occurred at a threshing 'in Tucker
smith is recalled with delight by 'one
of the only ' two retraining persons
who -were present on the occasion
Both are still residents of the locality.
T remember some years ago when
younger .than Lam today, my neigh-
bor was threshing and she invited me
to assist her. I was delighted with;
the opportunity for an outing as it
was a beautiful day, but a rain storm
arrived in the .evening. Two old
gentlemen came to the house *nil
one of them said, ''Well, Miss, w;e
finished threshing and thought we
would come to the house where it is
warm." "You certainly did right," I
said. 'tto come in out of the cold rain
and let the younger fellows load the
machine," (which was the old horse
power in those days). The two gents
were enjoying a sociable conversa-
tion, and 1 was getting ^ the supper.
One of them apologized, saying, I'm
afraid, Miss, we aredisturbing you."
"Oh, no, not all, Pen busy and not
paying attention to you,." So they
w n
en tta
o n talking, g, one of them'rem
ark -
in
not 'Mr, "Is
g. So and So a ver
peculiar, kind of a man. It beats all.
He came to my place one morning.
And I 'was standing out in the yard
and so was nay wheelbarrow.. And he
saluted Inc with, -,bang it all, Jim
and will you be using your wheel-
barrow?' 'Oh begad, Jerrie, I will,'
says 1. And 'begingers, "he said no
more. And bejudas if. he didn't go
and get my wheelbarrow, And be
japers, he 'took it phone with him.
Weil, d.... it all, John, I thought he
was a h• ... of a man. Now, tell ate,
what do you think" The remaining
threshers were coming in for their
supper PP so John did not get time to
tell him what' he thought. But he
said to mc,- "Excuse us, . Miss,- I'rn
afraid we ,have annoyed, you with our
gossip. 'I must admit '1 was some-
what annoyed, but was able and 'had
the 'presence of mind to say, "I was
not -paying attention."

SEAFORTFI, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, -JULY 8, 1929:,
ed the .work of the committee giving
;diem a certain amqunt of 'latitude in
tna,king changes in the allocations
where the size and strength of the
congregation had been altered. •
The afternoon was to 'have ' been
given over to a picnic and social time
and a goodly number of the minis-
ters' wives and families had accoritp-
anlied them with 'hha't prospect in
•v'iew. The beautiful ,grpunds of Mr.
T. J, Webster had been very grac-
ionsly placed at the disposal of the
Presbytery, Unfortunately the busi-
ness session was so'protracted that
the picnic idea could not he realized.
For'the noon clay areal, tables were
set' in the church basement •and ;a
hotmtiful repast+and social hour were,
greatly enjoyed:"
Before .acljournntent the Presby* ry
recorded their deep appreciation `pf
Mite hospitality „of the Egmondville
congregation , and asked that this
should be conveyed to.the said con-
gregation.
At six o'clock the Presbytery 'as-
sembled along with the ministers'
wives, and the Official Board 'of
North Side United Church and their
wives, about . a' table that fairly
groaned with the good things pro-
vided. The tables, and -indeed the
whole 'room, 'was tastefully and lav-
ishly decorated with the,flowers for
which Seaforth is, justly famous..
Rev. 'Mr. Telford, of Blyth,. 'the , re-
tining,• Chairman Of Presbytery, pre-
sided in his usual felicitous way, sand
having introduced' Rev. W. P. lane
and wife a''s the bride: and groom of
the occasion, he exiled on a goodly
number to speak words of Welcome,
en opportunity that was heartily ap-
preciated. -
T'he induction service thatt follow-
ed was a new experience to many of
the congregation. IRev. Mr, Telford
presided and after the opening exer-
cises called on Rev. G. M. Chidley, of
Thanes Road, to preach. Mr. Chid -
ley preached a very eloquent and
heilpful sermon, from. Nehemiah 6:3.•
Following the induction prayer and
ceremony, in which all the members
of Presbytery took part, Rev. ,Mr.
Bennett, of Wingham, wtas -called
upon to give the address to the min-
ister, which he did in very able fash-
ion. This was followed in turn 'by
the address of •'Rev. E. F. Clysdale,
of Exeter, to theecongregation. If
the congregation are able to live up to
the":teats set 'before them by Mr.
Clysdale, they will. not 'go far astray.
Altogether the service was most im-
pressive and inspiring, and :formed a
fitting beginning for what is earnestly
-hoped will be a rich and fruitful aria:.
istry in this splendid congregation.
At the conclusion of the service,
'Rev, lir, Lane and Mrs. Lane, and
Helen, were introduced to "tine congre-
gation
'by Dr. Barrows and Mr. Hol
land, and judging 'the 'heartiness of
the welcome, Mr. Lane begins his
ministry under very happy 'auspices.
