FINE Tisez,—A very successful little Play entitled "I Can't Afford It" was staged by the Young People of the Methodist Church in the Foresters' Hall, Belgrave, Friday evening last, April 29th. This drama has an On- tario farm setting throughout, and carries with it many characteristic phases of rural, life which are real, humorous and yet pathetic, - To say that our young people carried their different parts well is putting it mild- ly, and they certainly are deserving of great credit for their splendid attempt at characterization The Hall was filled to the doors, and from all re- ports everyone was exceedingly pleas- ed with the entertainment. During the program the duet was rendered by Mrs. Clayton Procter and Mise Maude Bell entitled "Keep on Hopin" which was well received also. The proceeds of the entertainment amounted to $93,00. The parts taken by Carl Proc- ter, Van Hopper and Stewart Proc- ter represented a certain type of farm- er, more or less prevalent in all neigh- borhoods, who can never' be shown that it pays to promote any cause that has the welfare of the community as its object. The cause of the coun- try boy was well represented by Dave Deacon, Wilbert Procter and Harold Procter, while that of the wives was given by Aletha Hopper, Lulu Procter and. Luella Hopper, whose ability in carrying their parts was all that could be desired. As no Ontario country play would seem quite complete with- outia part played by the minister and his wife, these were very successfully represented by Howard Wilkinson and Helen Deacon, while the more ro- mantic parts between the little Irish maid, Peggy McPhail and Jim Hart- ley, the Parsonage visitor, were taken in a very proficient way by Mande Bell, and Russel Hopper. The maiden lady with the college education wae- taken by Edith Procter, whose com- mon sense curtain lectures to the farmers furnished a great deal of amusement for the audience and Verde Procter certainly carried the part of the winsome country girl with great credit indeed. Only two of these young people had ever appeared in any public performance before ,and, they have every reason to be proud of The Teeswater Foundry and , Machine Works Now open fp; business in- cluding Mqulding, Machine Work, Wood -working and General Repairs, and General Blacksmithing in near future.

Paul N Milloy Dies After Long Illness The following is taken from The Commercial Appeal of Memphis (Ten.) tinder date of April 23rd and refers to afoi'mer Brusselites :—Paul Neil Mil- loy, one of the leading photographers of the city and popular with a wide circle of friends, died Sunday, April 28rd, at 4:30 o'clock at his home, 1960 Union Avenue, after an illness ex- tending over a long period. 'Mr. Mil- loy's death was due to pernicious anaemia. He is survived by his widow, Mrs. Lotta Cornell Milloy, and by one sis- ter, Mrs. Coleman of Toronto both of whom were with him at the time of of his death. Funeral services will be held this afternoon at 4.30 o'clock at the Scottish Rite Cathedral, The pallbearers will be : Active—Harry Liggett, Oarl Davis, Burns Cook, Charles Quinn, William Cavett, Frank Barkley, Harry L. Cook,Dr.Frank Robinson. Honorary—Hugh Jones, R. G. Walker, P. D. Clack, Dr. Winston Carter, A. E. Cameron, John Opp, Edward Rona, Stave Fransioli, Rob- ert Palmer, W. M. Gregg, Charles Devine, Lewis Head. 0 The remains will be taken to De- troit for burial. Mr. Milloy would have been 51 years old on May 1, He was born near Orangeville. Be came to Memphis in 1897, and was connected with the studios of Bingham and Gray. Later he opened his own studio on Main street and Monroe Avenue, where he remained for several years, and then moved to the present location in the Byrd Building, His wife was associated with him in business after he opened his own studio and both were deservedly pop- ular with their large list of patrons. .ir. Milloy's contagious smile had a way of getting itself reflected in the face of the "eater" who was posing before his camera. Especially was this true of the many babies and ehil. dren whose faces smile down from the walls of his studio. But it was not only in his hours of business that Mr. Milloy made friends, He was interested in the life of Mem- phis, many of whose notable incidents he recorded io pictures that were re- produced in many cities. He readily gained the friendship of other men, and having gained it he kept it. He was prominet in Shrine circles, and his fellow Shrinere will conduct his funeral services today.
