Thurston &c Son, Proprietors t KIMBERLEY (Last Week's Items) Apple picking is about over, a few are left mainly because the varieties are not so well known as the Spys and some others. Hallowe'en passed off quietly, only a few jokes not worth mentioning. Mr. and Mrs. D. L. Weber's young people gave a Hallowe'en party to a bout 20 of their young friends, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Arnold Lawr- ence. The rooms and tables were beautifully decorated in keeping with holiday spirit and all enjoyed the chicken dinner and social evening. Miss Geraldine Weber spent the week end with her parents here. The Hammond family spent the week end with Miss Blanche. Mr. Jack Baird visited with his friend, Ted Myles, and other friends. The Young Peoples' society put on a Hallowe'en party in the Community Hall, Friday night, which all enjoyed. There were a goodly number masked. The costumes were splendid especially the tramps, hard time, and brides and groom. Numerous prizes were given and all enjoyed a lun:h at the close. Mr. D. L.

On Wednesday evening about 7:30 the people of the valley were horrified to see the barn of Mr. F. Weber in flames. The barn was on the "Hill farm" and none of the family had been to the barn for two days. It looks very much like the work of some evil disposed person and mu.-'h sympathy is felt for Mr. Weber. The barn was full of feed and his binder and some other implements were in it, with no insurance on the contents. EUGENIA PORTLAW (Intended for Last Week) Rev. R.
