(ALFRED DUCHARME, Correspondent)
Visitors at the house of 1'1r. and
Mrs. Fred Ducharrne over the
weekend were from Detroit, Mr.
and \Irs. Lawrence Ducharme
and from Grosse Point Woods
were lair. and Mrs. Tvrus Stans-
berry. They returned rto their
home on Sunday. Sister Precille.
Theresa, daughter of the Duch-
arme's accompanied the Stans-
berrvs to Chatham to attend to
some business for a few days be-
fore returning back with her par-
ents. Also at the senior Duchar-
me's were from London, Mr. and
D•1rs. Gerald Hartman and son,
and Mrs. T. Hartman from Zur-
ich.
Mr. Roy Forbes of Sarnia on
Friday last attended to some
work at Ducharme's beach in his
cottage, perhaps making every-
thing in readiness for another
year.
Father Martin of Paincourt call -
,„ed on friends in this neighbour-
hood the past week on his return
from a trip to Montreal.
On Monday last, callers with
yours truly and Mrs. Ducharrne
were from London, Mr. Ray-
mond Jeffrey and Miss Sarah
Ducharrne also of London. Both
of them are nephew and niece
to the Ducharme's.
Mrs. Joseph Corriveau had the
misfortune on. Monday in some
way and the result had fractured
her arra and was rushed to South
Huron Hospital. To I'Irs. Corri-
veau we often hear it said "it
was a blue Monday."
The recent rain of late has
softened the land for the farmers
so that they may complete their
fall ploughing and as well help
them in their water supply.
Mrs. Adeline Denotnme of this
highway spent the weekend in
London visiting with her daughter
Mrs. Alphonse Masse who was
Lutheran Women
Discuss Bibles
The "Bible, " its effect on
different people's lives, differ-
ent versions and meaning was
the topic for the Lutheran Chur-
ch Women's October meeting.
Mrs. D. Armstrong, Mrs. E.
Datars, Mrs. Leona Rader, Miss
Ethel Hess were in charge of
the meeting.
Bibles were on display in dif-
ferent languages; Greek, Hebrew,
and German.
Mrs. Lcn Prang presided for
the business meeting. A motion
was made for each member to
bring a gift for the Children's
Aid Society, to help with their
Christmas boxes. Woolen and
leather mitts, gifts, games
were a few of the articles men-
tioncd that they could use. These
gifts are to be brought to the next
meeting..
confined in the hospital for a few
days.
The end of this week brings the
end of daylight saving time for
this year. It is hard to predict at
present what the coating year
will decide. For some Iaylight
saving time was much agreeable
to them. It gave them an extra
day -light hour in the evening to
enjoy themselves in their sports
games and perhaps for inany of
thou they have no early morn-
ing responsibilities for rising
early the next morning. For
those people, we believe,
they will put in an early bid for
the same another year. Others,
especially niothers with a few
children to get ready for school
it is different pulling their child-
ren out of bed in the dark hours
of the morning at a time when
they are enjoying their deepest
slumber. To parents and child-
ren it is not aireeable. But
what to do, so far there is noth-
ing in sight to correct the error.
