M. Best, presented to .the church by members of his family. A most appropriate sermon was preach- ed by the rector, Rev. T. H. Brown. The altar is a beautiful piece of work- manship, being seventy-two inches wide, forty-two inches -high and 30 inches deep, of oak finished in the natural grain of the wood. There are three panels in the front; one on the left. has the Greek letter alpha, while the right-hand panel has omega. In the centre is the sign I.H.S., an ab- breviation of Iesous, the Greek word for Jesus, and meaning "Jesus, the Saviour of men," There is a brass plate inscribed, "To the glory of God, and to the Blessed Memory of Ade- line Harries Best. May 31, 1863 - December 11, 1921. A token of her children's 'love." The rear altar is twelve inches high. Minstrel Show Big Success. -The local minstrel performance given at the Strand Theatre on Monday night, was .one of the best ever offered in Seaforth. The company consisted of twenty-eight people •under the entire direction of R. E. Willis, and [tie stage setting, which showed an old Kentucky'•homestead with the log cabin in the background, was also originated by Mr. Willis. When the curtain arose the boys were greeted with big applause. A deep yellow spotlight playing upon the stage cre- ated a very pretty scene. 01d Massa, an old Negress, and several pick- aninies were seated in front of the cabin, and the soloists directly in front. Jt. E. Willis was interlocutor. The Blackstone -Buckley orchestra handled the musical numbers of the bill with extraordinary merit. The solo numbers and choruses were rend- ered exceedingly well and the harmony was all that could be desired. It would ,be -unfair to single out any special number, although special men- tion should be made of the solo num- bers by the two boy sopranos, Fired Willis and George Daly. The concert was gotten up in less than a week and the crowd was one of the largest on record, every seat in the (rouse being filled by 7.15 pan. Local Briefs. -Mr. W.
