However the program went ahead as scheduled, only with a very small at- tendance. The Winghtim branch of the VVomen's Institute did the cater- ing in the splendid way which only ladies know how. Mr. Wright was, the chairman and addresses were giv- en by the following; A. H. Musgrove, Mayor Willis, Rev. H.. W. Snell, R. Wilton, Robt, Cdultes, T. C. King, W. F. Vanstone, W. A. Galbraith, and the secretary W. T. Booth and A. G. Smith. Instrumental selections were given on the piano and violin by Mr. Jack Perdue and his sister, and solos were renderedbyMrs. Don, Rae, Mr. Gor- don Buchanan and Mayor Willis. The latter also gave a splehdid recitation as did also Rev. Mr. Snell and Mrs. W. P.-Vanstone. Miss Hazel Brandon was the accompanist. The object of the banquet was chief- ly to get together the town man and the agriculturalist, also for the hear- ing of the report of the delegate to the Ontario Fairs Association and it vvas indeed an excellent report given by Mt Coultes. The speeches of the men from the town assured the ag riculturalist of -their hearty co-opera- tion. Mr. W. A. Galbraith Suggested that we .go one step further and of- fer to give a couple of our Wednes- day half holidays to assist in the erection of a fair building or in pre- pagation of grounds. Ur. Musgrove said that although price of farm pro- duce was low there was a ready mar- ket for it and the farmer could get the cash; he compared this with an incident in his own life; when living on the farm he was sent to Bluevale to post a letter, the postage was five cents and he carried a dozen eggs to pay for the postage stamp but the ix erchant post master refused, as the eggs were not worth -more than four cents that day. 'The ladies of the Institute had pre- pared for a much larger crowd than were present and they were so very much behind because of the weather condition that President Wright and a few of the directors of the Agricul- 'viral Society decided to put on a inchre, and dance in the council cham- ber on Thursday night, Feb. net. Cards will cernmence at eight o'clock, lunch will be served, afterwards danc- ing with special music, Trains Tied Up Febreary of 1924 is proving that the fellow who said it would be an open winter was not very well posted. Af- ter having a -real blustry month of it,. the storm on Tuesday night put the lid on solid. The L. H. & B. got to Wingham about one o'clock in the morning and the Palmerston pulled in a couple of hours- later. The late C. P. R. did not get in on Tuesday night nor is it expected in on. Wed- nesday, All trains on both lines are cancelled for Wednesday. Passes Examination Mr, Russel Hopper who has been in theemploy of Mr. A. J. Walker in the Furniture and Undertaking-, sine the death of Mr.- Walkers father'th late jas. Weikel:, has successfully passed his examination of qualifica tion as an Embalmer, held at The Anatomical Section of the University of 1 otonto on Feb. 6th. We wish to congratulate Mr. Hop- per on his success, as he got all his experience right in' Wingharn and did aot attend any other school of Em- balming. This also reflects great credit on, Mr. A. J. Walker under whom he trained for 15 months: The Colonel's. Maid . This three -act comedy was well preseated in Wingham Town Hall, on Tuesday evening last, by nine resi- dents of Wroxeter, under the auspices of Junior Farmers apd Junior Wo- men's Institute. Mr. Gavin David- son' made an efficient old Col, Robt. Rudd and Mr. Arthur Wearring made a very fine Chin -ah -Ling. They all took their, parts well. The other characters were: Col.

MacLean Lumber & Coal Co. e Ice Harvest a Bumper • The ice harvest is on, Mr. j. A. MacLean has several teams busy hauling. Thompson Bros., of Tees - !water, have the contract of cutting and are certainly wasting no time. Once again the possibilities of a.Ford engine is exemplified; with the en- gine taken out of one of their trucks, hitched up to a 30 inch bevelled saw they are able to cut 6000 blocks per day. They cut out over one hundred tons of ice at Wingham and moved their outfit to Lucknow on Wednes- day. The ice is of excellent quality this year. Methodist Church Notes Commencing with next Sunday, the Pastor and officials of the Methodist Church are opening an evangelistic campaign. After much deliberation and prayer the progranune has been completed and will be as follows: Mr, Reg. Hudson, a very popular leader of song willbe here on Sun -- day, Feb. 24111, and will remain until Sunday, March gth. Mr. Hudson com- es highly recommended ,as an expert atones, this line. On March 71h, the Rev. J. W. Hib- , bent of Kingsville, will be here and . will remain for five days, Mr. Hibbert requires no introduction to Wingham. He spent four very happy and success- ful years in the Methodist church here. On March 141h., Mr, •J. Newton Jones of England will be here for two weeks. Mr. Jones comes most highly recomtnended. He has been most suc- cessful in evangelical services both in the Old Country as well as in Amer- ica. , We are highly favored in having a man of Mr. Jones standing with us. Thus everything that the pastor or the quarterly board could suggest to build up the spiritual interests of the congregation has been done. We need now the co-operation of every member and friend of the church. 1. Will every meniber and adherent of the congregation make a special effort to be present at the service on Sun- day morning next, that we may get away to a: good start? Field Crop Prize Winners The final score in the Field Crop competition in connection with The Turnberry Agricultural Society makes a few changes in the rotation of prize winners, Mr. Wilton has the distinc- tion of having the highest bin staore in the province and probably„in the Dominion.

E,stimable Lady Passes An old lady beloved by all, can truly be said of Mrs, A. E. Brock who passed to her Eternal Homo on Thursday morning, at the ripe old age of 71 years. Abotit a month ago Mrs. Brock, who lived over Mr. Gal- braith's store, fell down the back stairs while taking ashes out, and broke, her arm.

Subscriptions 00 Per yrs MOCK PARLIAMENT The fourth session of the Mock Parliament of the Methodist Church was held in the Sunday School room, on Monday evening last. From every view point it was a marked success. The attendance was remarkable, practically every chttir was occupied, planks were brought in, and even then some had to stand. On account of sickness two of the members of the government were absent, whieh de- pleted somewhat their strength both in members and. debate The parliament opened with various 1. estnnates. This gave all present a good conception of the custom of par- liament in dealitig with steal matters' Some of the comments were not only interesting but informing. It seemed unfortunate that the Minister of Agri- tcauclktiiire was not present seeing his de- partment came under such fire of at - The mai11 interest of the session -centred around the Bachelors' Bill. The .acidress on both sides showed careful preparation, and on account of the nature of the bill, they were very amusing, and at times very witty. The leader bf the opposition was at his best, and in his story of the cook who 'fell overboard brought down the house { in roars of laughter. A vote of confi- dence was taken and the Government defeated. The Hon. Alex. Coutts, leader of the opposition, was called -upon by the Lieuten,ant Governor to form a new Government. At the conclusion of the session the pastor announced that on account of the special meetings, which are be- ginning next Sunday, no session of the Mock Parliament will be held in March, but one will be arranged as early as possible in April. The new Government will be in charge and we may expect something out of the ord- inary. A hearty vote of thanks was tendered the speaker, Mr. A. H. Mus- grove, for the time, thought and dir- ection he bad given the Mock Parlia- ment. The session closed with "God Save the King."

There appears na be a certain amount of secrecy about the score for after asking several players they could not say for sure, all were agreed that Wingham won and the score was something like 54 to 8. The Wing - ham line-up was: Herb Mitchell, goal; Roy Cruickshank :and G. L ,trackee- bury, defense; G, 13, Flanigan and Fred Sturdy, wings; Dr. Howson, centre. forward; Stanley Harrison and Net.
