For some weeks he has been assisting in the installing of a $35,000 organ in Grace Chur c h , Brantford, which was started in October, It was dedicated December 23 by Right Rev. Bishop Hallam, as­ sistant bishop of the Diocese of Huron. All woodwork for this organ was done by John Reichhold of the Keates Oran aFctory. Keates secured many of pipes from Germany as they were more readily available there than in Great Britain. A new feature of the organ is the position division, the first of its kind in Canada. This organ has 3.035 pipes ranging in size from three inches to 16 feet, Men were brought from Germany to adjust the speech of the pipes. Lucan is proud that the Keates Organ Factory had a big share in the installation of such a wonderful organ.

She told them of the County Co-operative Bookmobile which began on such a small scale and which now brings new books every three months. She then explained the use of a library card, the care of books and how they should be returned prompt­ ly- The children found everything very interesting, particularly the many magazines, and went home very happy after their first to a real library. visit of1948 CHEV COACH, one cleanest 38 we have had some time! the for BRINSLEY The sympathy of the commun­ ity is extended to Mr. and Mrs. George Mercer and family in the death of their son Bobbie.
