Mi. Geo. H. King, who has been
organist and cboirmest•r of North
street Methodist cburob for the past
seven years, has tendered his resigna-
tion, hewing been appointed to • sm-
ilax position in the First Methodist
church at Peterboro'. We understand
the appointment includes the engage -
meet of Mrs. King as.oprano soloist.
Mr. and Mrs. Hing will leave Gods -
rich at the end of this month. This
announcement will doubtless be read
with regret, not only by the people of
North street Methodist church, but by
many others. Mr. King bee given
good and faithful service. and :Mrs.
King is one of the most popular
singers that Goderich baa had In many
years. The new appointment, however,
will provide • larger scope for their
skill and talent as ru.lcianu.
A Mysterious Disappearance.
A strange story comes from Detroit
of the disappearance of a young man
who formerly wan a reriideot of (lode -
rich. Two weeks ago last Tuesday
morning, about l o'clock, Mr. Arthur
Hopkins left his home in I hat city.to
go to the factoryln which baba -Wen
working in order to get his tools, hav-
ing secured employment at another
place nearer his home. He reached
the factory and procured his tools, and
that is the last that is known of his
movement's He has in some way
dropped completely out of sight. Mr.
Hopkins is twenty-eight years of age,
and has a wife and two children. His
mother, Mrs. Hopkins, lives in Gode-
rich. He is a machinist and for some
time worked with the Road Machinery
Co. here. The polioe have been work-
ing on the case, but so tar without
tangible result.
The Price
of Clothes
Like everything else, tail-
oring prices have ad-
anced somewhat ; but —
we are trying to keep
them within reaching
distance, and at the same
time maintain the stand-
ard of quality which
marks the clothing turned
out of our shop.
Now would be a good
time for you to order your
summer suit.
