EXETER ' The hockey carnival held in the rink Friday night gave the fans a full night. The first game was played by Dashwood and Exeter, the score .being 2-1 in favor of Dashwood. The sec- ond game was between Grand Bend and Crediton, the score being 1-0 in favor of Crediton. Crediton and Dashwood being the winners-, , played off, Crediton winning by 3-1. The ex- hibition of the one -legged skater was in itself wonderful. The large at- tendance kept breathless silence as the . skater on the one foot, danced and waltzed to the music, and did fancy cuts and curves on the ice. The inclemency of the weather kept many home who would have otherwise at- tended. Death of Alfred Bowey.—The death occurred early Monday morning of Alfred Bowey, at his home on Wil- liam Street South, at the advanced age of 73 years. The deceased had been in failing health for several years and death was not altogether unexpected. The late Mr. Bowey was born in Bristol, England, and he came to Canada when a young man. As a vocation in life he followed the stone masonry business, at which he 'was an expert during his working days. He was an Anglican in religion'. When the Trivitt Memorial church was er- ected he was one of the chosen bell ringers, which position he held as long as his health permitted. His wife predeceased him during the flu epidemic of 1918. He was of a quiet disposition and spent his latter days around his garden. •He leaves a fam- ily of three girls, Etta, at home; Mrs. Thomas Clarke, Windsor, and Mrs. M. W. Pfaff, of Exeter; two sisters, Miss Francis Bowey, of Pasadena, and Mrs, Norley, of England. The remains were laid to rest in the Ex- eter cemetery on Wednesday after- noon at two o'clock. Annual Congregational Meeting.— There was good reason for rejoicing at the congregational meeting of the Crediton United Church when the last payment on the last note on the mort- gage had been made. To commem- orate the occasion, George Hirtzel, being the oldest member among those present, was called to the front and asked to take the note in hand and touch the lighted match to it, which .he did, in the presence of the presi- dent of the Ladies' Aid, Mrs. F. W. Clarke, who held a dustpan under the burning parchment to catch the ash- es, while the whole audience looked on. In 1922 the former Methodist Church was burned and the handful of members set about to build a new edifice in which to worship. A com- mittee was appointed to view other churches and make a selection. Sub- scription lists were passed around, the various bodies of the little church congregation got busy. Fin- ally a plan was selected and the fin- ished product in figures looked like $20,000. They immediately set to work, built a church of red brick, in modern fashion, and in nine years time, paid off every last dollar, be- sides keeping their end up in every department. The Rev. Brooks wast pastor during the building of the new edifice and much credit was due his untiring efforts. The present pastor, who is in his second year, deserves much credit. He is Rev. H. W. 'lfagel- stein, and he serves Brinsley, Shipka as well as Crediton. The reports for the past year showed the church to be in a flourishing condition. The Ladies' Aid have stood behind the various organizations of the church. The M. & M. and W.M.S. funds have showed an increase over the mast years. The Sunday school, under the able direction of Superintendent Jas. Mawhinney, has an enrolment of 120 and an average attendance of 80. Mr. Mawhinney has held this position for about four years. Memorial windows were placed in the church by members of Mrs. Banes, Sr., family; the Hills' family; the Young People, and the Ladies' Aid of the days of the build- ing. Crediton United Church congre- gation certainly deserves credit for the grit and zeal displayed in build- ing and the clearing of debt of the monument for worship in such a short space of time, TUCKERSMITII Mr. John C. Doig, of Detroit, vis- ited his parents over the week end returning on Tuesday, accompanied by his father to Port Huron. Miss Etta Bell, of London, visited her parents, Mr. and Mrs. A. Bell, over the week end. Misses Margaret and Ross Patrick of Stratford Normal, spent the week end with their parents, Mr. and Mrs M. Patrick. Mr. and Mrs. S. Laidlaw, of Climax Sask., are visiting at Mr. and Mrs Robert Doig's. Mr. and Mrs. Thomas O'Loughlin entertained their neighbors on Friday evening to a euchre and dance. Prizes were won by Mrs. A. J. Houston, Mr. James Love, Mrs. S. Laidlaw and Mr. Sams Doig. The music was supplied by Messrs. McLaughlarn, S. Gemmell, Hodgert and Doig. School Report.—The following is the report of S. S.

The future egg production of your Chicks must be inherited. Three years of trapnesting and pedigreeing under Record of Per- formance, three years selection and blood testing under Ontario Breeding Station Supervision, and four years in the egg -laying con- tests, puts us in a' position to produce chicks that possess an inborn ability to reach a high pinnacle in production, under the proper care and management. 'Poultrymen are becoming more educated to the underlying ,principles of 'breeding, and are quick to recognize the in- herent value of tests off' performance and uniform results of stock. Sufficient proof of this can be had by referring to our long list of satisfied customers, who place repeat orders with us each year. We will gladly send you a copy of our 1931 catalogue. t, fa JAS.
