Gilchrist of Maxwell was Argyle Martin visited on Thanksgiv- The church was the scene of a large gathering last Friday evening when the people of the village anc community gathered to honor Miss Millie Cook. Miss Cook has been a life-long resident of the village, "where she has conducted a general store established by her late parents, Mr and Mrs. Robt. Cook. She has a;- ways taken a keen interest in the affairs of the community, particularly the church and Sunday School, where she was seldom absent on the Sabbath day. She is leaving shortly to take up residence in Toronto. Rev. W. J. Scott acted as chairman for a fine program of duets, recitations, song and violin selections. At the close of the program he spoke with great feeling of the loss occasioned by Miss Cook's departure. He called upon Mrs. Sinclair, who read an address while Laura White and Edna Mar- shall presented Miss Cook with an electric lamp and bed lamp. Mrs. CoU- inson read a poem composed by a for- mer member of her clas=. Although deeply touched Miss Cook made an ,able reply, expressing: her apprecia- tion of the gifts and extending a warm invitation to all to visit her in her new home. Candy was pass- ed at the close of the evening. Dear Miss Cook:- We cannot let this evening close, without expressing to you, our sincere regret, at your departure from our midst. You have always been so faithful and untiring in your devotion to the Sunday school and church, and not only here, but in the community as well. You are leaving a place which will be very difficult to fill with both the grown-ups and the children, also on behalf of Ceylon and the commun- ity we ask you to accept these gifts. May you long be spared to enjoy them and as you do so, we trust you'll remember your old frieilds with happy memories. â€" Signed on behalf of Community. MRS. KNOX, MRS. WHITE. MRS. SINCLAIR. To Miss M. Cook, Ceylon, Septem- ber 29, 1933. Bygone days of your Sunday school class, 1902 to lyiO, written by a member of class. A little maiden, with dark brown hair. To a Sunday school class. She paid great caie, every Sunday at 2 p.m. Those two long seats in the old Orange Hall, Were filled with maidens, both short and tall. All were eager, as their countenance told. To hear Miss Cook the lesson unfold. unfold Many were the prizes, the girls did win. And a Sunday missed, was considered a sin. In Millie's heart, a great pride arose. From seeing twelve young o-irls all in those rows, The lessons she taught, we are sure to this day. Has helped one and all, on life's rugged way. And we all, with one great voice proclaim. That Millie was ever, and always the same. â€"Signed on behalf of your old Sunday school class, 1902 to 1910. Zella McLeod "Patteraon", May Adams "Brown",, Ina McMullen, "Hawke", Sybel E.
