Thuraton fit Son, Proprietors X â- <i^-. .i' < FEVERSHAM Mr. and Mrs. Glend«nning, hia sis- ter and her husband of Detroit were callers at Geo. and Thos. Cooper's last week. Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Joy and family and Mrs. Robt. Joy of To- ronto also visited with the tetter's brothers, Geo. and Thos. Cooper. The school fair was held here for the different schools in the township and was well attended, the people taking more interest, and the pupils did their parts well in the contests for public speaking. Miss Doris Taylor of Singhampton was first and did herself credit. We believe she is a daughter of Reeve and Mrs. Taylor of Singhampton. Her subject was on "How Canada is Governed," Miss McPhail, M.P., being the contri- butor of the prize. There were three girls and one boy in the public speak- ing contest and all did well. In the school parade contest Ma-xwell school took first prize, Singhampton second and Feversham third. The races were run off in grand style, the adults as well as the children taking their part to make the fair a success. Mr. Joe Taylor of Singhampton was judg3 for the races and took care of the winners. We think that for the short time the new teachers had to train their pupils all did exceedingly well. The show in the hall was fine. Miss McPhail spoke briefly, as did Inspector Huff and both were highly applauded. â- Â» The agricultural repre- sentatives at Markdale are untiring in their efforts to make these fairs a success and Mr. Cooper is worthy of great praise. An ideal day and good success all round this year was everj-body's comment. Mr. and Mrs. Jackson of Toronto and Mrs. John Stewart of Flesherton were visitors with the latter's uncles, Geo. and Thos. Cooper, last week. We believe that Robt. Alister was the first to finish harvest in this lo- cality this year, he having drawn in the last load on Monday of last week. Mr. and Mrs. Harry Hale of Sud- bury visited with the former's broth- ers, John and Fred Hale, recently. We are glad to see Jim Davidson able to sit out on his verandah for a short time these fine days. Our villager, Mr. Wm. Davidson, Sr., who has been enjoying the sea breezes off the Atlantic Ocean at Portsmouth, U.S.A., has returned home. J. J.

Our village was quiet on Sunday, a number of our villagers having at- tended the camp meetings at Clarks- burg. Captain Jolley of Collingwood con- ducted a meeting in the S. A. barr- acks here on Sunday, night it being he occasion of Willis Pedlar's fare- well, as he goes to the S. A. training college in Toronto this week. Willis's many friends wish him well in answer ing the call in his life service. There were many there to wish him farewell. A temperance meeting will be held in the Presbyterian church in this village on Thursday evening, Sept. 25th. All welcome. A fairly good crowd attended the football game here on Monday be- tween Collingwood Town and Fever- sham, the lattr winning the gam* 1-0. The hall was filled at night for the play "The Little Clodhopper." by the Mclntyre Dramatic Club. It was well received and the artists were highly applauded, and the concert was certainly worthy it.
