In spite of predictions of crop failure some farmers in the vicinity who have threshed report a splendid yield of oats; while the beans, which it was feared would be ruined by the excess- ive moisture, aro ripening nicely with the hot sun ot the past week. and with favorable weather-onditione for another couple of weeks or so a splendid crop will be reaped. When we hear also that the apple crop is fair to very- gnat, and the potato crop a "bumper," we begin to doubt the necessity fol the enlargement of the p sor house which some were sadly advising.

Its dilapidated condition could not erase from memory's wall the beautiful pictures that must ever cluster about so cherished a place as "Home, Sweet Home."

The younger mem- bers of the gathering with some of their• seniors who were renewing their youth on the occasion put iD the after- noon by engaging in strenuous game, of football and seashell. After all bad fully enjoyed themselves a sumptuous lunch was served by the ladies and the happy event was brought to it close. Those present were Rev. Mr. Gumming and family, W. E.
