The following article taken from
the Vi-apella Post, will have special
, interest for our Ashfield and Dun-
__ _ gannon., reaciers:__ _
"Another name was stricken from
the ger-lessening roll of our old
settlers on Friday.. September 26th..
when Mr. James. Girvin, of Parkin
district, passed away at the age of
70 years and- 5 months.
The deceased gentleman was born
at Dungannon, Ont. He was a true
pioneer of the West, having come to
Winnipeg in 1880, and in 1883 he
moved to Wapella and located on a
homestead close to the banks of the
Pipestone in , Parkin district. During
the early years of settlement and
when the west was "in the making,"
by his 'energy and example he in-
stilled confidence and enthusiasm a-
mongst his neighbors and friends and
it is largely due to him and others
of like temperament that the West.
and particularly this district, has
been moulded into form.
By his jovial manner•and willing-
ness at all times to lend assistance he
won the love and esteem of friends
and neighbors, and he will be greatly
missed in the social and business life
of, the community- The strantrer
. even though a bezzar. never failed
to find food and shelter if he sought
it at his hands and this same gener-
ous spirit in all matters won for him
the respect of all with -whom he as-
sociated. How much this community
owes him and such as he it is im-
possible to estimate.
A wife, one son, George, and four
daughters, Mrs. E. Codd, of Leth-
bridge, Mrs. Halladay, of Denholm,
Miss Eva, of Winnipeg, and Miss
May, are left to mourn and to them
is extended the heartfelt sympathy
of all. in the community. °
The remains were laid at rest at
S. Paul's cemetery on Sunday, Sept
28th, a large number of friends ac-
companying the funeral cortege to
tht. grave.

leaning on the arm of her father, and
took her place benesai an arch of

of the bride. The bride was beauti-
fully gowned in White satin and geor-
gette, with trimmings of beads and
satin ribbon. She wore the custom -
uv bridal veil and' carried a beauti-
ful sheaf of white carnations and
maiden hair fern, with satin stream-

forty, adjourned to the dining room,

kinds sof- old, fashioned . lights
have been pressed into service since
the .current was shut off, various
kinds of gasoline lamps having the
preference.
The Table Company, A. R. Finlay-
son, the Cain House and Mr. W. Mac-
kenzie having Delco electric lighting
plants are in no 'way inanvenienced
until they go out upon the dark
streets.
Mr. G. Drinkwalter procured a
whole lot of gasoline lamps, tanks,
wiring, etc. at Goderich, and did a
land-office business for a few days
installing these. They are giving
very. good satisfaction. -
The "town fathers" had a practical
demonstration of the new order of
thingti» at their meeting Tuesday
night, when they had to requisition
the Fire Co.'s big gasoline lamps to
light up the council chamber. •
The Public Library has been badly
.off, •for -lights the -only. -source rbeinw

This want, .however,,will be -overcome'
before the end of the week. The
Council, of course, will make provi-
sion for lighting the Hall
So far as lights from the plant of
W. -Stewart & Son were concerned,
the town was in darkness last Sat-
urday night, the supply of current
having ceased acording to schedule.
However, Mr. Stewart very obliging-
ly supplied current Sunday eyening

PRINCIPAL OF MANITOBA ,
COLLEGE
A clipping from a Winnipeg paper
received this week tells of the in-
stallation of the Rev.. John MacKay.
D.D., as principal of Manitoba Pres-
byterian College at Winnipeg. •
Special local interest attaches to
this installation because, aswe
scarcely need mention, Rev. MacKay
is a Kinloss Township old boy—pe
haps its most brilliant son. He is
the son of the late Hector McKay,
who at one time owned a farm on the
3rd con. of Kinloss, near Murray's
School. The fainily came originally
-from West Zora.
We are told that at the age of six-
teen, Mr. MacKay had a flrst class
teacher's certificate, and that as a
very young man he .taught in the
Holyrood school. He later attended
college in Montreal where he had a
brilliant career, and there, too, he
studied for the Presbyterian ministry
His ability as a scholar and educa-
tor were recognized at Vancouver. B.
C., and he was made principal of the
college there, a position he has held
up to the present timeet The position
which. he stow take.s at Winnipeg is..
one of first-rate importance, and will
afford unlimited scope for the exer-
cise of his splendid talents.
The article from the Winnipeg pap-
er reads in part as follows:
"The installation ' of Rev. John
MacKay, D.D. in the principalship
of Manitoba Theological college was
formally made last evening at an Im-
posing ceremony in Knox Church.
Rev. A. B. Baird performed the cere-
mony and the charge was delivered
by Rev. P. Ee Scott, of Portage la
Prairie. Several eminent -ministers
took part in the service, including
Rev. Dr. Bryce. Rev. C. W. Gordon.
Rev. Dr. F. B. Duval and Rev. II. J.
Robertson.
• In his inaugural address Rev. Mac-
Kay touched on many of the vital
problems of the day and outlined
briefly his conception of the part
Manitoba college might play in the
solution of these problems.
"The only tielution of the present
world unrest isto be found in Christ
and Maitoba college is going to do
its share in raising high the Cross of
Christ.
"The church must recognize the
great%underlying principles of the
league of nations and help to make
thein real in a way the peace confer-
ence has failed to do. For we cannot
help but recognize that the peace
conference blundered seriously when
it denied Japan equality of race."
said Mr. MacKay.
Rev. MacKay attributes the cause
of the war. to the growth of com-
merce, the progress of physical
science, the dominance of -German
philosophy and, the development of a
nation of specialists. "Had the world
realized the place of Chr:st • there
would have been no. such disaster and
our only hope of recovery is to make
Christ supreme," he said.
'The church and college must in-
spire its students with a love of God
and love of literature. The college
Must give the people the benefit of
Modern scholarship through lectures.

VILLAGE COUNCIL
The village- fathers-lracl ssrompara-
tively light bill of fare for their
meeting Tuesday night—just routine
business and the passing ttf accounts.
Mr. Paul Smeltzer wanted to have
a number of trees, which grew on the
street opposite his lot. cut down. He
said the trees were only about twelve
feet apart, and they shaded and de-
stroyed his garden- He thought that
every 'other- tree might be cut out
without iitifirims the .appearance 'of
the -street. The council promised con-
sideration of the matter. Mr. Smelt-
zer further wanted the street opened
up as far 'es his gate. It appears
that a fence belonging to Mr. Lyon
occupies a part of the street, and Mr.
Smeltzer wants this removed. The
reeve and Conneillor Hcnticrron were
appointed to See Mr. Lyons about the
removal of the fence.
The clerk read a letter from the
Deputy Fuel Controller of Ontario
asking for a survey of the local coal
situation., Owing. to a shortage of
hard coal, and the labor trouble m
thesoft. coal ..mines; there is ,a deem-
eeof an all round scarcity of fuel and
the controller evidently wishes to
give each district its share of the
coal obtainable.
Among the accounts presented for
paymenu was one froM the Toronto
firm which recently did extensive re-
-pairs on the pumps in the fire -pro-
tection power house. This bill of
charges amounted to more than $1,-
000, and with express and other
charges, -the repair work cost alto-
gether about $1,250. The question
as to why the work was not submit-
ted to tender instead of having it
done as piece work, the reeve explain-
ed that no firm would, tender on re-
pair work, a fact well understood' by
those who have had to do with that
sort of work.
It was stated too that, the council
had been severely criticised for in-
curring such a large expenditure in
connection with the plant—someone
having even suggested that it might
be as well to let the plant go out of
Isusinesa. This, however, would not
do, as the clerk had been advised that
if the fire protection plant were not
put in proper condition fire insur-
ance rates in the village would, ad-
vance immediately; and, speaking as
an insurance agent ile stated that
without a power fire protection sys-
tem, inaurance rates would certaihly
advance not less than 50 per cent -
The reeve further pointed out that al-
though the item of repairs seemed
large, it amounted to only $40 per
year since the pumps were installed,
and the pumps are now as good as
wheg they were new: It was *mat-
ter of cleaning up a lot of work that
had been accumulating for many
years. Had .it been done before the
war it would not have cost more than
half as much.

were as follows: Lucknow Table Co-,
