The Minister's Bible class had an
attendance of 41 last Sunday after
noon and there is still room for more.
The sacramental service last Sunday
morning was one of the largest in the
history of the church. It speaks well
for the spiritual life of the church
when, without distribution of com
munion cards, or other special effort,
so many gather to celebrate the Lord’s
Supper. Every indication points to
the belief that our church is facing an
era. of renewed spiritual influence and
power. We were glad to see the choir
back to normal strength after the holi
day season.

of sermons on the history of Israel,
taking lor his text Ex. 33: 21, 22: Be
hold there is a place by me and thou
shall stand upon a rock, and it shall
come to pass while my Glory passeth
by, that 1 will put thee in a cleft of
the rock, and will cover thee with my
hand while 1 pass by. The Rector, in
speaking on Visions of God, stated that
visions came to men during or immedi-
---------------------------j “«ely after a time of heaviness and
The League is’ sorrow. In^upport of this he referred
to the Vision of Isaiah, the Transfigur
ation, the Apocalyptic vision as well as
the vision of God that Moses had after
the sin of the golden calf had dark
ened the whole scene. Visions -also
come to men in the path of duty, but
especially when men stood on the Rock
of Ages and realized that the Rock
was cleft for them. The choir filled
completely the choir stalls and ren
dered very acceptably the service of
praise. Mrs. (Dr.) McQueen and Mr.
Charles Hill took the solo parts in the
anthem during the offertory.
The A.Y.P.A. had a most enjoyable
outing on Monday evening last when

from the local branch attended and a
like number entertained them. A real

was rendered and games enjoyed until
a late hopr, when coffee, sandwiches
and cake were served in abundance. A
hearty vote of thanks was extended to •
the Culloden young people by Mr. A.
V. Vincent and the rector. Three
rousing cheers were given for each
branch of the society, after which the
young people motored back to town,
arriving about 12 o’clock.
The meeting of the chancel guild was
held on Tuesday evening at the home
of Mrs. Burn. Mrs. (Dr.) Weston
opened the meeting, after which the
rector took charge for the election of
officers. Mrs. Weston felt that owing
to many other duties, she could not
continue as president, and the rector,
while expressing his regret that Mrs.
Weston could not hold the office for
another year, appointed Mrs. Ben Burn
: president. The other officers were re
elected as follows; Hon. presidents,
; Mrs W. H. Dunbar. Mrs. (Dr.) Joy;
vice president, Mrs. C. Waller; treas.,
Mrs. E. J. Malone; secretary, Mrs. G.
Clark; directress, Mrs. (Dr.) Joy; as
sistant directress. Miss Elizabeth Nich
olson. The treasurer reported some
S6.00 on hand to begin the year with.
A hearty vote of thanks was tendered
Mrs. Dr. Weston for her very success
ful efforts during the year and to the
other officers who had assisted her. A
dainty lunch was served by the hostess
at the close of the meeting.
A social meeting is being held by the
choir this (Thursday) evening in the
parish hall. All choir members attend.
Next Sunday evening the rector will

When they reached Howlet Hall,
and the carriage drew up before the
door, Daniel Hunter alighted, handed
his daughter out, and, pausing a mo
ment, while he held her hand, said:
“This is your home, my darling.
Come to my heart and hearth. Wel
come I" and he embraced her and led
her up the stairs.
“Mrs. Hunter has arrived, sir,” said
the servant who attended the door.
“Ahl indeed I How long since?”
asked Mr. Hunter, with surprise and
deUfhL
"Only this moment, sir. She has re
tired to her chamber.”
"How did she come?" inquired
Daniel Hunter, hurrying in.
"In a hack, sir—it has just gone
around to the stable.”
“My darling, where shall I leave you
for a moment?" asked Mr. Hunter,
turning to his daughter. Then opening
the door of the drawing-room on the
righthand side of the hall, and seeing
a fire burning in the grate, he led her
thither and’ drew forward a deep, soft
chair, and placed her in it, saying:
"Remain here', my dear; I will see your
mother," and he left the room.
He hastened upstairs to Mrs. Hun
ter’s apartment, and found the lady
seated in a lounging chair, leaning
wearily back, and under the hands of
her maids, one of whom was removing
her bonnet and veil, and the other
kneeling at her feet, taking off her fur
overshoes. At the sight of her hus
band all signs of weariness fled, and
the lady started up to meet him, eager
ly inquiring:
"Have you seen her? Is she well?
Have you brought her?"
"Yes, dear. I have Seen her, and
brought her hither, and she is well.
She awaits you in the drawing-room."
"Betty and Tilda, leave the room; 1
do not need your assistance," said the
lady to her attendants; then turning to
her husband, as they kit the room, she
said; "Oh. bring her hither immedi
ately, Mr. Hunter. I do so long to
embrace her!"
"Compose yourself; it is unusual for
you to be so excited.”
“It is an unusual occas;on.”
"You .'allowed me very quickly."
"Yes, poor Norah breathed i.cr last
the morning after you left, and within
an hour after her death I left town.”
"And Honoria and Percival?”
"They are at the hotel. Letty is with
‘Lctty is in her usual health and
"Oh, certainly! Oh, do go and bring
tell you excite
ment is always enfeebling, if it be not
a sign of original enfeebkness. I am
going to bring her now," said Daniel
Hunter, turning to go down-stairs.
“I wonder what could move him,"
said the lady, just a little impatiently,
as she walked up and down the floor.
The door opened, and Daniel Hunter
re-entered, leading Maud. The lady
stopped in her walk and turned around.
There she came—the long lost child—
the beautiful maiden—aye, more beau
tiful than even the mother’s fancy had
ever pictured her; there she came, with
her eyes seeking her mother. Their
eyes met—they did not rush into each
other's arms—their emotions were far
too real, too deep, and the maiden’s
feelings too nearly awful for that.
Their eyes were fixed upon each other,
their faces instinct with emotion; they
approached each other slowly, and met
in a silent, close embrace. And then
the soft sound of smothered sobbing
was heard. And Daniel Hunter went
to the window and looked out, wonder
ing why women wept at everything—
at what they were glad of as well as
what they were sorry for, and—wiped
his own eyes. After a little while Mrs.
Hunter led her daughter to a sofa, and
they both sat down. And the lady held
the maiden’s hands and gazed in her
lovely face until her snowy eyelids fell
over the sweet blue eyes, and her soft
check suffused with a rosy blush, and
she grew lovelier than ever. And then
the lady raised her hand and looked at
its exquisite beauty, and next took off
her little black bonnet and set free her
long, bright ringlets—those peerless
ringlets of that rich, rare hue, between
the golden and the auburn, which old,
classic painters loved so well. "She is
perfect; she is perfect," was the ver
dict of the lady's judgment. And then
she thought, with a transient swell of
pride, of the sensation, of the wonder
this matchless beauty would have cre
ated in the circles of London. Paris.

The Restored Daughter.
was a lofty, spacious room, with fayr
high windows—two east and two west
—where all day long the sunshine en
tered. Those windows were heavily
curtained with blue damask, lined with
white sarcenet, looped back with cords
and tassels, showing inner curtains of
rich lace. The hangings of the bed
stead and the coverings of two loung
ing chairs and a sofa, were of the same
material and color. The elegant toilet
that stood between the east windows
was draped with lace, lined with blue
silk. And the style of the carpet on
the floor was a light, running vine of
violets, over a white ground. The
dressing bureau, wardrobe, washstand,
little table, etc., were of white satin
wood, highly polished. A few cheer
ful-looking pictures adorned the walls,
and pretty, quaint-looking vases, etc.,
stood upon the mantelpiece. A glow
ing coal fire, in a polished steel grate,
completed the comfort of the room.
The low. luxurious sofa was drawn up
to the fire, and Mrs. Hunter sat in it
with her daughter at her side, with
her arm around her waist, never tiring
of caressing her, never weary of con
templating her, ever seeking a deeper
and more real consciousness' of the
joy of possessing her. Combing her
fingers through the soft, glittering
ringlets, the lady murmured: .
"Strange. I never thought you were
my lost child, yet ever felt it. Passing
strange, yet perfectly true. When I
first saw you. little one—when, looking 1 bs

thing in their look that was familiar,
something that was intimate, that was
my own, that was of myself. Your
eyes have the very same expression
that they have often worn when you
were an infant on my bosom, when
waking up from your infant slumbers
you would look out upon life with new
wonder, and then up to me with a
questioning, loving, trusting look, as- if
asking what it was. And so when our
eyes met that day in the Sunday school
I felt that they were the same eyes
that used to look out from your baby's
face, which years before had laid upon
my bosom; the same eyes gazing up
into mine with the same earnest, wistful
questioning, loving gaze. Now- tell me
love, you can recall your feelings at
that moment—can you tell me why
you looked at me with such a search
ing, eager, fond look?"
“Yes—yes, lady—yes. dear mamma,
I know I" said the maiden, gravely, al
most solemnly.
"Why was it, then?" asked the lady,
bending over to press a kiss upon her
forehead.

"Half recognized me?"
“Yes, dearest mamma."

walking up and down the hall. Let us
ring at the front door bell, and the
servant who answered it returned and
brought a letter, which, he said, was for
the young lady. Daniel Hunter took it
with the design of passing it immedi
ately to his daughter, but in doing so
his eyes fell upon the strange super
scription, "To Mrs. Falconer O'Leary.
His brow reddened with a look of sur
prise, displeasure and annoyance, and
no one here who bears the
name upon this letter. There is pro
bably a mistake—take it back to the
person who brought it." and without
even condescending to inquire who that
"person who brought it” might be.
^Daniel Hunter turned upon his heel
and continued' his walk. The servant
bowed and left the hall. And Mr.
Hunter had scarcely taken a second
turn before the servant re-entered with
the letter, saying:
"If you please, sir, the messenger
who brought this letter is Young Lcn,
Mr. Falconer O’Leary’s man, and he
says there is no mistake, and that it

'and taking the letter from the ser-
isss
“Read it. then, and tell me if you
answer to such a name.”
Maud turned the letter up and read,
"Mrs. Falconer O’Leary.” and her fair
face flushed almost purple, and then
paled, and she looked from the letter
to her mother in a kind of amaze
ment.
“There, you percievc, my dear, what
sort of a right this misguided young
man wishes to establish to you. Now,
give me the letter that I may return
it. Come, my dear, why do you hes
itate?”
But Maud still detained the letter,
and looked in doubt and anxiety to
her father and mother. Daniel Hunter
had patience with her and gave her
time. At last she said:
"Father, I know you arc a just man,
and that you will tell me what is right.
I am very ignorant, father, and I wish
to know whether this really is my true
name that is written on this letter—
because if it is I must keep it I"
“Your name, my dear? Why. assur
edly not I What do you mean by such
a question? Answer me."
"I meant, father, to ask whether
that ceremony which was almost over
had not made me Falconer's wife?”
“No, not if it had been quite over!
Assuredly not. You are under age.
Miss Hunter. You belong to your
father and mothed. Only they can
give you in marriage."
Maud, for all answer, silently handed
her father the letter. Daniel Hunter,
after a few moments' reflection, seem
ed to have conquered his first emo
tion of haughty indignation. He sent
his servant to tell Little Len to wait
for an answer. And then leaving the
mother and daughter together, he
went to his study, taking the letter with
him. Here he sat down and wrote to
Fakoher O’Leary, intending to enclose
Falconer’s letter in his own. David
Hunter seated himself in his leather
chair, drew his writing table before
him. and sat retl cting what he should
do in this case. Most fathers, in Mr.
Hunter's circumstances, would have
felt themselve more than justified—
would have felt themselves constrained
to break off all friendly intercourse
with the wild, unpromising young radi
cal agitator, and *xo destroy at once
and forever every shadow of hope of
his future union with h daughter and
heiress. Most fathers would have
punished the boy's insolence by send-
dor and luxury to charm her fancy,
and win her from the memory of her
childish love. And as far as the
daughter’s welfare alone was interest
ed, this might have been well, and it
would have promised not unfairly for
eventual success; for it was evident to
Daniel Hunter, as to all others who saw
it, that the affection of Maud for Fal-1
coner was only the tender, guileless out. I
spoken love of an only sister for an only
one reason,
than other men, and he did not feel
obliged to damn a poor boy who he
might redeem, or with egotistical in
difference, to turn and abandon him
to his own destruction, when he cou d
form guide and elevate him to fame
and fortune. Falconer O'Leary was
a wild, impetuous, ungovernable young
radical—a polital ignisfatuus, likely to
lead men into bogs and quicksands,
where he would only quench himself.
All this was true. But instead of hurl
ing this fiery young spirit down hill as
to a native element. Daniel Hunter
would snatch it "as a brand from the
burning," would place it on a hill, where
it should be a light to the world, "a
burning and shining light." That was
a glorious thing to do, and Daniel
Hunter was the man to do it There is
no great deed ever done that is not
founded on self-conquest, self-sacrifice
power to do it. And the greater the
these conditions Daniel Hunter had the

He laid the paper before him, took
a pen. and wrote to Falconer. No
words of mine could do justice
to the spirit of this letter. He began,

words for two reasons. First, I am the
father of the maiden you love, and
your father also in years and in know
ledge of life. And. secondly, because
I am really and disinterestedly seeking
your good as that of my own son."
Lastly, he wrote that in returning the
letter, he acted in no spirit of resent
ment. but from mature deliberation,
and under the strong conviction that in
writing and superscribing such a letter
the boy had been influenced by passion,
under a total misconception of his
true position toward the maiden. He
concluded by saying that he should be
pleased to see him at Howlet Hall.
Daniel Hunter placed his own epistle,
together with Falconer’s in an enve-
• lope, sealed and superscribed it and
rang for a messenger, in whose hands
he placed it to be given to Mr.
O'Learys servant

HYMN
“He Icadrth esc! O blessed thought!
0 words with heavenly comfort fraught!
Whatc'er I do, whate'er 1 be,
Still ’tit God's hand that leadeth me.”
PRAYER
"We praise Thee. 0 God. that Thou has*
not left ns to grope our way amidst the
shadows of life alone. Thou hart promis
ed to be our guide even unto death. We
have suffered so much in the past be
cause we have not been willing to follow
Thy leading. So often we have followed
ourselves in the wilderoes*. Now we
would hearken to the voice of the Good
Shepherd. Lead ua beaidc the still waters
and make ua to Be down in the green
pastures. Strengthen our’ heart* for the
t*«k* that the pauiDg difs bring to u*.
Help us to be faithful in the little thing*.
Grant ua grace to endure whatever the
future may hold, of aorrow and trial. And
the<e mercies we ask in the name of Jeaua,
our Friend in every time of need. ‘
SCRIPTURE
Psalm 46; Deut. 33:24-25.
MEDITATION
Deut. 33-25:—“And aa thy daya, ao shall
thy strength be." Thia promise ia but
another way of saying that sufficient
strength will be given to meet each day’i
needs. The principle ia well illustrated
in the steam engine where the throttle
valve admits steam in greater or lesser
measure, according to the varying load of
work to be performed. Thu* an even speed
maintained, and everything work*
smoothly and regularly. God doc* not de
sign that we should live by fits and starts,
possessing an overplus of strength’ when
the burdens are light, and falling beneath
the load for lack of strength when they
Amen.*
are heavy. It i* Hi* purpose for u» that
we should be provided with the necessary
strength to bear whatever the day may
bring to ua. Il ia God’a plan that we
live and enduro one moment «t a time.
God does not promise ua alrength to live
in the pan and bear the burden, of
in the future, and borrow the burden* ol
tomorrow, and bear them piled on lop of
the load of today, and often the load of
yesterday aa well. He simply promises
u* prosent strength for present needs: “As
thy days, so shall thy strength me." Some
one ha* said that God has broken the year:
into days and hours so that the burden of
life might not be loo heavy to bear with
Hia help.
“Cod broke the yean to hour, and daya.
That hour by boor aad day by day
Juw going on a little way.
We might bo able all along
To keep quite strong.
Should all the -eights of life be laid
Across our ahouldera and the future, rife
With woe and struggle. meet ua face to
At just one place, we could not go.
Our feet would atop, and *0
God lays a little on us every day.
And never, 1 believe, in all the way
Will burden* bear *0 deep.
Or palhway* lie to steep.
But we can go If by God’* power
Wc only bear the burden of the hour.'
This well expressed the meaning of the
promise we have been considering: “As
thy days, so shall thy stregntb be."

“As thy days thy strength shall be—
This should be enough for thee;
He who knows thy frame will spare

The 37th annual convention of the
Delhi and Middleton Rcligeou* Educa
tion Council wm held in the Delhi
United Church on DecembcrlSth, there
being morning, aft^ooon and evening
sessions. The attendance this year was
not m good as in some former years
but enthusiasm and interest ha* not
Maned.
The morning session was opened by
Rev. Mr. Cook of Delhi, who led the
exercises. Mr. Quance, superintendent
of the Delhi United School, welcomed
the convention to Delhi. He was glad
that the work of the Sunday School
wm processing, just a* the opportuni
ties of . our parents were in a measure
not as good m ours, so with the Sunday
SchooL The S. S. of today is better
organized and better manned than it
ever was before. Mr. John McKim of
South Middleton replied to Mr.
Quance, thanking him for his kind
words of welcome.
The president, Mr. Geo. A. Ronson
of Courtland gave a real enthusing
address. He compared, the Sunday
school of today with that started by
Robert Rake* in England many year*
ago. Little did he know what a won
derful work he was starting and the
untold good it would do for humanity.
Rakes, he said, ran hi* own little school
on Sunday afternoons. Helper* were
scarce, but now the great snowball of
Sunday school work ha* grown to such
a size that workers in every part of
the civilized world ore busy, keeping
it rolling.
The report* of the superintendents
of the various departments of Sunday
school work for the township showed
that much interest is being taken by
most of the schools in keeping all de
partments working. The hardest one
to keep going was the teacher train
ing. Mrs. Dcloss Sandham, the super
intendent, reported that three school*
out of the eight had taken some work.
Miss Harvey’s report-on missions show
ed that interest is being taken along
this line. The Delhi United and Bap
tist Trtitoois 'eadi- give regular instruc
tion and offerings apart ifuGX*HE.school
offering. The former gave $178.00“aB<r *>,
the latter $152.00 to mi»*ion* last year.
Mrs. B. G Buchner reported that
ten classes of the Young People of the
township arc organized, four hold mid
week meetings and three sent dele
gate* to summer schools. Mr. A. Wil
kinson reported that most school* give
temperance instruction and the Delhi
United had fifty-one pledge card* sign
ed during the year.
Owing to the train on whicfi the pro
vincial speaker, Miss Laine, of the To
ronto office, being late, she was not
present to address the morning ses
sion- The afternoon meeting was open
ed by Rev. Mr. Lee of Delhi. In hi*
few remark* he stressed the import
ance of teachers and parents holding
high ideals before their scholars and
children.
The schools were each charted by
the secretary and showed the follow
ing totals out of a possible 105: Delhi
United, 100, they gave during the year
$178.43 to missions and had seventeen
delegate* at the convention; Delhi
Baptist, 100, gave to million* $15247
and had eight delegates present; Delhi
Anglican, 80, gave to mission* $35.00
and had two delegates present; Court
land United, 90 gave to missions $10.00
and had three delegates present;
Courtland Baptist. 100, gave to mission*
$36.63 and had nine delegates present;
Bethel United, 60, gave to missions
$4.42 and had one delegate present;
Goshen Baptist, 90, gave to missions
Kand had eight delegates present;
Middleton United, 100, gave to
missions $6.00 and had one delegate
present.
Rev. Mr. France of Eden addressed
the afternoon session on “The Neces
sity of Personal Bible Study.” He said
progress along any line wm based on
bible study. In the history of nations
we are told that darkness and ignorance
came when the bible was not available.
There have been many martyrs such
as Wycliffe and Luther, who gave
their live* to bring back the script
ure*. No one can realize the help and
influence that the bible ha* exerted
on England as well as other countries.
The speaker thought that individual
study of the bible was the best way
to become familiar with the scriptures.
The bible contain* some of the finest
literature in the world. There could
be found no better poetry than in the
53rd and 55th of Isaiah, and the story
of the prodigal son is an example of
the finest ol prose. The bible stand*
for the highest code of ethics “Do un
to others as you would have them do
unto you." We study the bible be
cause it is the actual word of God,
and it reveal* to a man exactly what
he is. It give* a person a dear vision
of God in His love and holiness.
Mrs. Clark of Delhi favored the audi-
ance with a well rendered solo after
this address. “The World is Growing
Better Every Day."
Rev. R. E. Fairbairn of Courtland
gave a very enlightening address on
“The Spiritual Value of Routine.” This
subject was suggested at the meeting
of the executive when the subject of
reports was brought up. Mr. Fair
bairn covinced u* that the following
of a route or a routine of some kind
in almost any line of work is what
get* results. The speaker thought
that the following of such program
mes m the GGI.T. and other* of like
nature were the best means of going
about getting spiritual results. Routine
may mean two things a rut, or a route.
A route is the way to get somewhere
but when it becomes a rut it means
spiritual decay and failure. A commu
nity will not get any good out of re
ligion until they get in the routine
of regular worship. Only he who es
tablishes a religious system in his life
Vts out of religion what he should.
routine programme in Sunday school
work gets more results than a hap
hazard way. System in doing thing*
means effort and following a routine
gets you somewhere, as exemplified in
the teacher training course. If you
don't make duties a matter of routine
they will likely be neglected. The
speaker said that the OTA. was a
routine for the working out of tem
perance.
Mrs, C. Berry, superintendent of the
children’s department, reported a mem
bership on the cradle roll for the town
ship and Delhi ofl56.
Miss Laine, of the provincial office
in Toronto, gave a helpful address,
checking up on the work of the town-

schooL Successful teaching is that,
that is transformed into actual living
of the scholars.
In the evening Rev. A. Carr of Til
son burg gave an excellent address on
"Winning the Teen Age for Christ.”
There arc different ways and means
of attaining the same end. Above
everything else the winning of the soul
for Christ should be the teachers*
great aim, it is above keeping order or
teaching the lesson in importance.
Teach them afterwards, "The fear of
the Lord is the beginning of Wisdom."
The teen age is the easiest time to win
the boy* and girls for Christ, but don’t
wait till then if you can do it sooner.
They have a vivid sense of sin at this
age. The speaker said there is a hung
er for serious things at this age under
the mischief, don’t be airaid to talk
to them about sin. We would be
anxious to save the life of a child in
danger, are we as anxious about their
souls? When the boys and girls drift
from the Sunday school they also drift
from the church and if not won now
they may never be won. A good mean*
of winning them is to teach them the
need of a personal Saviour and also
their personal responsibility in the mat
ter, this is the teachers duty. God is
profoundly interested-in this work, thus
we are co-workers with Him. Mr. Carr
said this business requires the wisdom
oi an archangel ando the teachers’
source is from God. It is better to
try and blunder or fail than not to
make any attempt at all, the man who
doesn’t make mistakes doesn't make
anything. If we try we have done our
duty and are not responsible. AH the
resource* of heaven are at our disposal
in this work and nothing will give a
teacher more joy than the winning of
a soul.
the subject ol “Sowing the Good Seed
in the Soul of the Young Child." She
said that early years are important as
[irejudices and attitudes in life ore
ormed in early life, psychologists tell
us. Great is the person who can see
the possibilities in young lives. Sir
Henry Stanley who was sent to Africa
in search of Livingstone was an im
migrant boy who was almost deported
when some one noted him and adopted
him. When asked at the time what
good he was by an officer, he sad.
“They make men of things Eke me.”
Has your school caught the vision
of Jesus setting the little child in their
midst. Do you look after thier com
fort in your school and give them good
teachers who are interested in their
welfare? A good teacher should un
derstand the law* of human nature and
co-operate with Jesus in training and
teachng the young. The chid can best
be taught in interesting simple stories.
Start with what he knows and lead to
the unknown. Picture* are a wonder

Historical Park at
Turkey Point
(Sigtcoe Reformer)
It win be of interest to the people
of Norfolk County to learn that the
Province of Ontario has secured about
1,500 acres of the sand lands near
Turkey Point, commonly knoun as the
Normandalc Plains, which includes the
historic townsite of Charlotte Villa,
laid out by Governor Simcoe in 1795.
Turkey Point is rich in historical
memories and it may be of interest
timbered, the chief tree* being oak,
beech, pine and walnut. Making our
way through the forest we reached
the lake at a place which, from the
abundance of wild fowl, is named Tur
key point. A ridge or cliff of con
siderable height skirts the shore for
some distance. Between this and
Lake Erie is a wide and gently slop
ing beach. The long ridge of hard
sand fixing Point proper) encloses a
safe and commodious harbor. The
view from the high bank is magnifi
cent. Altogether the place presentf a
combination of natural advantages and
natural beauty but seldom found. Here
we have laid out a site of six hundred
acres for a town, with reservations for
Ercrnment buildings, and called it
arlotte Villa, in honor of Queen
Charlotte.”
The town of Charkxteville did not

: early history of Upper Canada.
The earliest record we have of this
locality is in the journals of the Sul-
Ccian priest. Father Galince, although
ather Daillon is »upi>oscd to have vis-
I ited this spot in ItJo. Father Galinee
and Father Dollier made a voyage of
discovery through lakes Ontario, Erie
and Huron in 1669 and 1670, spending
the winter of I6rfl near Port Dover.
They reached Turkey Point in the
spring of 1670 and the record speaks
of immense herd* of deer, game of
varioii* kinds, and the abundance of
nut trees, wild grape* and apples.
Although the early French c*plor-

nired its suitability for settlement, it
was not till a century later that the
Long Point district was opined to
civiltialion by the United Empire
Loyalists. Between the years I7M and
1795 a number of Loyalist families
settled in the vicinity of Turkey Point.
Perhaps the chief point of interest
historically in the area acquired is the
now extinct town of Charlotte Villa or
Charlottcvillc. Licutcnant-Gov. Simcoe
having heard favorable reports of the
Long Point district visited it in the
summer of 1795. His actions and im

The site of the old fort and the
Turkey Point embankment are being
menaced by shifting sand, and the.
erosion of the banks. It is proposed
to prevent further encroachment of
this menace by judicial tree planting.

The following Interesting letter from
our old friend, .Mr. K. E. Freeman,
who is enjoying life in Sunny Califor
nia. has been received, and we cheer
fully pass it on to our readers:—
Long Jlcacli. Cal., Jan. I.
Editor of The News.
Dear Str:, WelL we are starting on
the new year, and 1 have been thinking
that a letter from Southern California
might l>e of interest to some of your
subscribers. In the first place we shall
give you some of our experiences. On
the 1st day of October we planted our
sweet peas. They are now thirty inch
es high. \S e also have a fine tomato
vine, over three feet high and bearing
fruit. I have yet to see our first frost
this winter.. We have a row of calla
lilies along the cast side of our house:'
been there two and a half year* and
never remember the time when there

and plenty of vacancies, in fact too
many, although people are still budding. The big Ford plant now being
prepared for erection is a source of
great ioy to our merchant*, a* it is to
be budt at Long Beach harbor.
Our winter rains arc coming early
this season. No rains on the high
mountain*; it i* sno* there, and as the
sun shines on it it doe* look beautiful.
But we don't care to get too close
to what vqu people call "the beautiful."
They tell inhere that snow early in the
season on the mountain, is far better
than craning bier tow*rfT .pringTK

As regards oil. Well, Signal lliil, on
the outskirts of lx>ng Beach, where oil
was first discovered, is still gt»ing
strong. The city receive* over a mil

the coast about twelve mile*. Hunting

(or rather village, a* it is too small
to be called, a city) to cut loose, it
would have amused you to sec the
houses licing moved off and the oil!
derricks go up. Some think the great
er part of Southern California is ly
ing on a great bed of od.
On the 15th of this month we ex
pect sonic cxcitmcnt as the gum man
Wrigley, who has a fine house on Ca
talina I.land, has offered $25,000 a* a
prize to the first man to swim the
channel from Catalina Gland to Long
Beach, a distance of twenty-three
miles; also $15,000 to the fir-t woman.
You wdl all read thi* fool trick in
the pre** later on. It will be well for
the gmn chcwcr* about Brownsville
to know how some oj their chewing
gum money is being disposed of. Well,
1 would like to »ce some of the *;>orty
fellows back in Ontario swim twenty-
three mile* in Lake Eric on the 15th
of January. They expect between 150.
and 200 to make the attempt. So far I
only one man claim* to have .done it. I
and he is a 2>ig iat fellow weighing j

Well, I was reminded this fall that |
1 must be getting old
of our* living here
Brownsville last fall lor a few days,
and when she returned she wa. trll-
iafc u. of seeing old Mr. So-andSo.
and another old Mr. So-and-So. I
won't mention names for it might not
sound good to So-and-So. Suffice it
to say that many time. I sat at the
same desk in school and received my
undeserved punishment (as I thought)
as I stood up on the platform touching
my big toes with the end* of my fingers
a* the strap landed away down at the
end of my back bone. Thi* punish
ment was always harder to take in
the summer than in the winter, as our
little garments were thin, and at that
season of the year we did not have
our woollen mitts and mufflers that
we used for padding. This that I am
writing may all be Latin to some of
you readers, but Mr. So-and-So will
remember it although it happened
about sixty years ago. The teacher
that administered the punishment was
a lame man, yet he could strike an
awful blow. 1 remember that some
of us when the strap came down would
go up about three or four feet. Al
though the punishment wa* severe sel
dom would one hear a squeal from one
of us. That was one thing that help
ed to t.irage this old lame teacher. I
expect he has gone to his reward long
before thi*. Be that a* it may I don't
want to meet him whik in the flesh.
Although over seventy years old I am
afraid there would be some bloodshed.
Well, when I began my letter 1 did
not think of getting on thi* line of
ancient history. Although it happened
sixty year* ago it wa* at the time very
interesting a* well as amusing.
Now. just a few lines as to the pres
ent. We are much interested in golf.
We drive out to the link* three time*
a week, just ten miles from our home,
a beautiful drive along the ocean front,
play the eighteen holes while the mock
ing birds sing to us, which Uke* us

Federated Brotherhood Club dinner

"There I* nothing like MILLER'S

Acids io Stomach
Cause Indigestion
Create Go, Soumeu and Pain
How To Treat.
Medical authorities state that near
ly nine-tenths of the cases of stomach
trouble, indigestion, sourness, burning,
gas, bloating, nausea, etc., are due to
an excess of hydrochloric acid in the
stomach and not as some believe to a
lack of digestive juices. The delicate
stomach lining is irritated, digestion is
delayed and food sours, causing the
disagreeable symptoms which every
stomach sufferer knows so well. \
Artificial digestents are not needed
in such cases and may do real harm.
Try laying aside all digestive aids and
instead get from any druggist a few
ounces of Bisurated Magnesia and
take a teaspoonful in a quarter glass of
water right after eating. This sweet
ens the stomach, prevents the form
ation of excess acid and there is no
sourness, gas or pain. Bisurated
Magnesia (in powder or tablet form—
never liquid or milk) is harmless to the
stomach, inexpensive to take and is the
most efficient form of magnesia for
stomach purposes. It is used by thous
ands of people who enjoy their meals
with no more fear of indigestion.
