days before the celebration started and
have been getting my hearings ever
since. Who do you think I met last
week? Tom McLean, have you -seen

anybody, as he seems to be the big

mostly in the hands of new nten. The
Advance has changed owners four times

Times has changed its office but 'is- still
owned by H. 13. Elliott, It looks- as
natural to see an Elliott in a printing
7 office as to sen a red head on an Irish- -
man. Tom and Bob King are carrying
on their father's business, the old Beav-
er Block was burned a few years ago
but the boys rebuilt, and have a fine
store, and good business, The T. A.
Mills stores are now owned by J. A.
Mills. The only medical doctor of the
old class is Dr. Kennedy, Macdonald,
Towler and Chisholm have moved
away and Dr. Tamtyn has passed out,
Bill Chapman, Cline, Button, Green,
and other enterprising hien have, -1
understand, left town because of the.
short sightedness of town councils. Dr.

.ienght to the family 1 feud which at the

Liberal candidate, Mr. Fraser, -
Mr Fraser, the speaker declared, was
not elected by the voice of the people,
but as a result of the Conservative split

ation, expressed his desre to resign, and
urged that the hatchet be buried and the
old tiine unity prevail,

servative and fellow -worker iii the associ=
ation, They also drafted a resolution of
confidence in premiers Hearst and Bor-

they are heads; Both resolutions were
unanimously carried.
Hon. Mr. McPherson in opening his
address, congratulated the Conservatives
of North Huron on the splendid attend-
ance and on the good feeling evidenced
at the meeting Mr. Fraser he declared

People and would not but for the.unfortun-
ate family feud, have been in parliament.
The speaker then dealt at length with
questions out of the war which eventually
closed with the great edefeat of Ger many
and her allies.
It is in the discretion of the Govern-
ment, he declared, when"the next election
will take place, .Premier Hearst has filled
the office with general satisfaction during
a most trying period and the province to-
day stands in a position superior toeany
part of the British domains...

Mr. McPherson declared that the action
of the Government was purely a war
measure in the interests of the people.
Referring to the "present destructive
rtrike at Winnipeg, he declared, "law and
order must be uwheld for the honor of the
nation."
In closing he urged that a candidate
for the Legislature be brought ont by the
Conservatives of North Huron as early as'
possible.

was well received
The meeting coucluded with the pass-
ing of a very hearty vote of.thanks to Dr,

congregation was small, their zeal was un-
bounded and the first church, dedicated
to St. Paul, was indeed a fine structure
and does credit to the• earnestness and
zeal of those early pioneers, Mr. Mur.
pity continued rector until 1871. and the
church grew steadily in strength. Frons
Wingham as a centre, he went afield and
under him Churches of Brussels, Blyth
and Lucknow had their beginning. In
1872 he ` was succeeded by Rev. Wm
Davis, who is well remembered by many
of the present congregation. Mr. Henry
Davis, present collector of customs, still
remains a member of the congregation,
keeping his father's name and tradition a
living force in the parish, In 1881 Mr.
Davis was succeeded by Rev, W. T, Hill
present rector of Petrolia, Mr. Hill resig-
ned in 1883 and Rev. Robert McCosh be.
came fourth incumbent having charge of
the parish until, 1887. The old rectory
was purchased during this time. The
next rector was the Rev. J. H. Moorhouse
who was followed in 1890 by Rev. E. W.
elughes now in S Cortina, although Mr.
Hughes remained only until' 1893 he saw
the beginning of the present handsome
church the cor
her stone of which was
laid in 1892. The work was completed
under his successor Rev Louis G Wood
at present in Charleston Va..- -
The new church was opened in October
1893 and will ever be a monument of the
zeal and devotion of the congregation of
that day. In 1895 Mr. Wood - was suc-
ceeded by Revs Wm. Lowe who for ten
years served , most happily. It was in
1903 that the debt was finally paid off
and in May of that year the church was
consecrated by Bishop Baldwin, In 1905
Mr. Lowe moved to St. Matthew's church
London, and was succeeded by Rev. Dr.
Boyle, now principal of Kirig's College,
Windsor, N. 8. It was during the incum-
bency of.Dr. Boyle that Mills Memorial
Hall was purchased and fitted up as a
Parish Club- House, a large part of, the
cost being contributed by the Iate Mr. T.
A. Mills.
In 1908 Dr. Boyle resigned and Rev. C,
E. Jeakins became rector remaining how-
ever only until Dec. 1909. Though his
stay was short the church prospered con-
gregations were perhaps never larger than
at this time. The next rector was Rev.
E. H. Croly, who was much beloved by
all. _He was succeeded in 19I4 by Rev.
E. G. Dymond who was followed in 1917
