Thursday as well as affected the live stock exhibits. However, every class was represented and there was a 'good show of tones and cattle. While the weather marked the outside ex- hibits somewhat, it did not affect the , dieply in the hall. Bayfield's inside show is always a good one, and this year was no exception, in fact it sur- passed former years and was the best seen. at any of the county fairs this year.

FROM AN OLD MeKILLOP CORRESPONDENT Toronto, October 4, 1920. Dear Expositor:—We are having bright, sunshiny days here now af- ter the little snowfall in the Province which was hardly noticed' here. I was delighted -to meet two excellent friends from McKillop a day or two ago. They were Mr. and Mrs. Albert Dun- das. I was pleased to hear of the continued prosperity of the good people up there. A pretty* sight was -wituessed in Queens Park a weeleago 'Sunday. This was a gathering of Free Masons who gathered for a parade to a church over on Spatlina Avenue, Than were an orderly and gentlemanly and well- dressed lot of rnen, Ind appeared to number fully a thousand members of this grand old society. I was over at St. Lawrence market a few days ago and the arena there was a lovely sight. Row upon' row of peaches in baskets, also grapes, apples, pears, and plums, bags of potatoes heaped, up high, and sacks of onions. At an auction sale of these fine things they certainly did not bring famine prices, potatoes $1.50 a bag, onions $2, peaches from 25 to "15 cents according to quality, etc. We should all be thankful for such an abundance of foodstuffs at reasonable prices, and yet there are many here who would rather have high prices and a scarcity, so they could have something to whine and complain about. This is the nature of some people. There will be an election in north east Toronto for the seat vacated, by the Hon. Canon Cody; a Soldier -Labor !candidate is in the field. The Con- servatives wanted Mayor Church to run but he has refused, his reason being that he can serve the city better to not be in parliament. The Liberals are not making mach of a move,- and intimated that he doesn't care a fig who gets in.. The quiet and orderly Sabbaths in evidence in this city for many years, helped to give it the name of Toronto the Good, but this is all over and past. Last Sunday evening there were four orators in one block adjoining Yonge street, and on Shuter street I took stock of them all. The one elosest to Yonge street was an ola sciatindrel. He commenced his harangue with the words: "Fellows ther2 is going to be a hell of a time in Toronto this coming winter," and he repeated these words again and again. His entire oration was encouragement to anarchy and reflections on religion. About a •stone's throw from him were two men in a covered wagon, one claim- ed he was born in Scotland and the son of a Presbyterian minister. The other said he was born in. England and was a retired Anglican minister. Their topie was religion and loyalty and their language, especially that of the Scot, was more forcible than polite. He held a Bible in one band and a Union Jack in the otter, and he shouted: "That old book and that old flag -will -flourish when these soap box hoodlums and their bastard and filthysfollowing' are writhing in hell." The Anglican had his share of had tongue also. I now come to one of {McLean Bros., Publishers - $L50 a Year in Advance the others referred to. Ile was close to the men on the wagon and was perched up high and dry. Whether he was an atheist, deist or agnostic or all three combined I am not pre- pared to say, as I am no judge of these things; neither will I give any of his words lest It might poison the mind of your youthful readers. W.- -flee it to say that he tried to prove that this present life was ali there 's to it and that there is no God. He roasted the men on the wagon and they roasted him in return. Again close to this unbeliever was a poor fellow, leaning, on two canes. He said he was born in Kentucky, that for many years he was about as bad as he could be; had made moonshine stuff and defied the authorities; was mixed up in feuds; . had shot and knifed men and been shot and knifed himself, but conversion had drivem. the devil out of him. His remarks were along the lines of the Salvation Army. Many a time I have been sick and tired of all this confusion and disorderly conduct on the streets of this great city,—J. J. I, MANLEY Notes.—Mr. W. Manley returned from the West last week, where he took in the harvest yields and helped to do some threshin.g. The crops are fair, yielding all the way feoin 6 to 30 bushels per acre of -wheat, but the oat crop is poor and a great many -farmers are cutting it for feed and not threshing it.—Mr. and Mrs. Archie McKay rnotored up from Guelph last. Saturday and on their return were accompanied, by Mr. and Mrs. W. Mee Kay, from Leavenworth, Wash., wine intend to visit friends in Guelph and London, after which they will return here for a few days, before they win leave for their western home,—Mit- chell Bros. have edinost completed the season's threshing In our vicinity and the crops were good ones, IDRYSDALE Denozny—Charette.--On Tuesday, September 28th, a beautiful wedding - was performed in St. Peter's church, Drysdale, by the Rev, rather Rondeau when Miss Juliette Charette, of St. Joseph, was united in the holy bonds of matrimony to Mr. Irmaed Denomy, of Drysdale. The young bride was led to the altar by her father, -while her two nieces, Misses Agnee Meidinger and Gertrude Ducharxne acted as flower girls. Miss Annie Badour assisted the bride, while Mr. John Denoiny, brother Of the groom, was beet man. The bride was ellen/l- ing-1y dressed in a pink silk crepe de chehe dress with a hat to match, while the bridesmaid wore a beautiful pink satin with a blue georgette overdress. The young couple left the church amid= the many congratulations of the relatives and friends, for the groom's home, where a very sumpt- uous wedding breakfast was served.. After' the pleasant afternoon was. spent the eornpeny adjourned' to the 'bride's parents home, where h public reception was held. Many and costly were the presents given them. .Mr. and Mrs. Denomy will reside neer - St. Joseph, where their many friends and relatives wish them marlY years of joy and happiness.

The day, though threatening in the morning, turned out most beautifully and the church was well filled while in the evening - it was peeked to overflowing and many could not get he Rev. Reginald Hudson' of Londton, occupied, the pul- pit andhis messages were very up- lifting and a great source of blessing to those who heard them. The an- thems rendered by the choir were most efficient while Rev. MT. Foster, pastor of the churl, gave a beauti- ful solo, "Alone With God," and rend- ered a very impressive- solo at the eNreming service. On the following Monday night the entertainment given in the Own hail fairly captivat- ed the audience which filled the Rraee. The selections and sketches, glann by the Rev. Mr, Hudson nearly raised the roof, while the. elocutloWat, Hiss. Millman, of Crediton, rendered, sev- eral excellent readings, one especially, it being a sermon on the "Old Mother Hubbard." The musical seleettona interspersed were also received! with MU& applause. The opening number wae a piano duett by the Misses Holeman, of Creditoni which was much appreciated. Miss Edson, of Kippen, rendered piano selections, which were highly received and Revs, Mr, Foster and Mr. -Hudson sang male &tett which fairly brought dawn the house.
