- VARNA
Barns Burned. -A fire broke -out on
Monday evening about ten o'clock on
the farm of Dr. Moffatt at Varna,
Ontario, in the driveshed. The blaze
apparently originated in the south-
east side and when noticed hid gained
such headway on account of a •stiff
breeze from the Rutheast that -for
a time it appeared that all the four
barns with contents of hay, cattle,
horses, implements aed grain would
be a total -loss, but due to the heroic
work of the neighboring farmers and
the villagers who had -immediately
came to the rescue with pails, trucks,
teams and water tanks, the fire was
restricted to the drive shed, which was
soon entirely destroyed. The flames,
in the meantime, however, reached
the horse stable and charred some of
the siding, but did no material dam-
age to this or any of the other build-
ings. Dr. Moffatt was at home in
London when notified about 10;45 p.m.
of the fire. He immediately got Clin-
ton Central by long distance phone
and sent out a hurried call for assist-
ance to all friends and nieghbors
around Varna, and then motored to
the City Central Fire Hall where five
chemical fire extinguishers were loan-
ed by Chief Aiken. He then motored
to his farm, a distance of 44 miles,
-in less than 2 hours, but foiled. on
his arrival that the fire had burnt
the drive shed' to the ground and all
the contents, of 50 hens, 2 buggies,
sleigh, cutter, tools and other con-
tents. It is most unfortunate as the
loss will be heavy, and only partially
covered by insurance. The loss is
doubly unfortunate as a few weeks
ago he had taken up the matter of
more insurance. with Mr. Sparrow, a
director of the Hay Townshinp Fire
Insurancq Company, who advised hied
at that time to place a thous -and dol-
lars more on all` the buildings. He
let the matter stand, and due to a
busy practice in London, neglected
doing so. Some time ago the doctor
decided to grass his entire farm in
the future. He gave his hired man
a motith'S notice to this effect as he
did not require permanent help in the
future and advertised his live stock,
hay, implements and three barns to
be sold by public auction on Friday,
November 5th, as they would not be
the right class or suited for this type
of farming. The blow, therefore,
came as a great shock to him. The
sale, hoWever. willbeheld on Friday,
November 5th, and everything sold
as advertised, just the same. The
origin of the fire is not known.

afternoon of this week at four o'clock
a happy event occurred at the Manse,
Hensall, when. Mr. Ross McLean', of
the Township of Tuckersenith, was
united in marriage to Miss Georgina
Jackson, youngest daughter of Mrs.
John Jackson of the London. Road, a
mile or so south of Hensall. The
ceremony was performed by Rev. 3.
A. McConnell. The marriage was
quietly celebrated, the bride being un-
attended and the happy young couple
took the evening train for London,
Toronto and Niagara Falls. The
bride was beautifully attired in navy
blue georgette crepe w ith hat to
match. We unite with the many
friends of the young couple in wish-
ing them long and continued happi-
ness through life. On Tuesday- af-
ternoon, just previous to the wedding,
st large number qf the relatiyes and
friends of the bride gathered at her
mother's home and presented her
with a fine _shower of useful and
ornamental gifts.
Briefs. -Our cuncil have learned
that ,the names of our fallen heroes
have been inscribed on the new statue

brother. -Mrs. George Mowbray, of
Edmonton, Alta., spent a couple of
days recently with their relatives,

Colin Hudson and 'children spent Sun-
daylast in Seaforth with Mr. Hud-
son, s parenes.-Our teachers were
pleased to receive a substantiai. ine-eeleared in preparation for changing the e ace
crease of salary, and we think no
teachers in the County are more de-
serving of an increase than that of
our own as they are faithful and
painstaking 'teachers and will now be
all the more encouraged to do, their
very best -Mr. and Mrs. Alex- Mc-
Allister, of Applegate. Mich., are here
visiting their many •relatives and
friends after an absence of nearly 40
years, and note many changes during
/that time, but are glad to meet again
so many they longed to see. -Reading
of the menet crimes and robberies now
so numerous in so many of our cities,
coupled with the high cost of living,
should make our villagers and those
of the rural districts thankful for vil-
lage and country life comparatively
free as it is from such conditions
that make life in the cities anything
but desirable. -The broken weather'
of the past week has spurred! up out-
side work with the thoughts of winter
coming on. -Our village -presents a
busy appearapce from day to day
with all the grain, sugar beets, apples
and potatoes being brought into mark-
et. -We are pleased to see Mr. Milne

splints, is able to manage pretty well

orable for getting in the large
quantity of flax still out in the fields
but with a few days of good weather
all will be secured of the very large
crop. -Nearly all those who went out
West on the harvest, excursions are
now home, the latest arrivals being
in the persons of Mr. William Dougall
and Mr. John Elder, who both enjoyed
the trip and time spent in the West
very much and met a legion of rel-
atives and friends, and have good re-
ports to give of conditions there. -
On Sunday last Mrs. Harkness, wife
of the Rev. Mr. Harkness, of Wrox-
eter, a returned missionary from the
foreign fields, 'conducted services •in
Carmel Presbyterian church both
morning and evening. She -also ad-
dressed the Missiop Band in the af-
ternoon, so that Mrs. Harkness cer-
tainly had an active day's work., Her
addresses were listened to with the
greatest of interest and pleasure as
she is a free and fluent speaker and
speaks from the heart. Het recital
of life in Indiar-China and Corea
proved most interesting and intensely
awakening as to the great needs exist-.
ing there and the call to the church
for workers, as never was there such
an opportunity for aggressive and far-
reaching work as at the present time,
Doors are opening everywhere for
mission. and evangelistic work and
Mrs. Harkness made a very strong
appeal for volunteers for the great
work. She dwelt .ort the blessings
that would ensue both to those
ministering and those being minister-
ed to, enlarging upon the joys of the
work as well as the responsibilities
and hardships connected therewith. -

such duties for Mr. T. Murdock for
the past number .of years and will,
no doubt, continue to give the good
service that he has given. in the past
years. -Dr. Peck received a message
on Tuesday afternoon last of the
death of hie mother-in-law, Mrs.
Maxwell, of $t. John, N. B., and' left
that evening to ettend the funeral. -
Many of our readers will remember
that Mrs. •Maxwell together with her
husband spent a number of months
here a couple of years ago with Dr.
and Mrs. Peck. Maxwell was
then in a very delicate state of health
and never regained her strength, so
that her death did not come with the
surprise that it otherwise would have.
-Our cauncil have received the in-
voice for a German machine gun for
our hall, which will prove of interest
to many, being one of the captured
guns in the late war. --Rev, Mr. Mc -
