Last Tuesday evening, March 22nd, Ivy Lodge, No. 114, A. O. U. W. of this village gave an entertainment in the Masonic Hall to which were invited a large number of the citizens of the village and surrounding dis- trict. The inv1tations were cheerfully re- sponded to and the hall was comfortably fill- ed. Mr. John Brown, Master Workman, oc- cupied the chair. At the opening he explain- ed the obiect of the meeting and said the chief object was .to endeavor to increase the membership of the Lodge which now con- sisted of about 40 members. He was Sorry to inform the audience that two of their singers were nnevmdably absent but the committee had, to the best of their ability, supplied their places. The musical part of the entertainment was taken by Miss Impie, and Mr. Cameron, of Toronto. The former sang a couple of songs in a clear, distinct manner which were well received. The lat- ter though possessing a very fair voice might certainly have been more choice in his selec- tions. Miss Wallace, of Temperanceville, gave a couple of readings which were listened to with much attention. During the evening Rev. W. W. Bates delivered a lengthly ad- dress, showing that he was in thorough sym- pathy with the society. Mr. J. R. Miller, P. G. M. W. of Ontario gave a lecture on the benefits and workings of the order. This was given in such a forcible and earnest manner that those present could not but be ‘ favorably impressed with the society. He ‘ showed by statistics that the membership for the province was rapidly increasing. Since 1878, when the order was instituted, the membership is 180 OHO. The average cost per year is between $13 and $14; which insures the holder to the amount of 32000. In other words the tax would be about 5; cents for each working day in the year. He said the association embraced members from ‘ the President of the United States down to the laborer, who worked by the day. The entertainment was brought toe. slow by Rev. W. R. Barker pronouncing the benediction. MUNN A: 00.. of the SCIENTIFIGAMERICAN con- tinue to act as Solicitors for Patent, Caveat lI‘mde Marks. 00 yrhzhts for the Uplteg Staten. iéannd England, nee.

The meet- ing was held in the library of the Parliament buildings. The idea was to arrive at gnu scheme which would he just to one part of the province without being unjust to the other. One discussion on the matter has al- ready taken place in the House this session, and the subject will again be referred to in a. few days. Although it appears to be ll. dif- ficult question to grapple with, public opin- ion seems to be strongly in favor of abolish ing those lingering relics of burlml'lh‘l’l". .L‘uousanus of aulmrs are annually paid tut to toll gate keepers on Elongs St. ulmw, whn do nothng for their money but ptnnd nnrl cullect it. If this money were paid ‘into the treasury for taxes the amount would keep in repair a good stretch of the road. Dr. Gilmour thought a committee would be ap. pointed by the House to investigate the matter. and endeavor to arrive at some fea- sible arrangement. The greatest difficulty will be with roads in the. handiz of joint stock companies. Yesterday (Wednesday) a doputation conA sisting of Messrs. anklrmd. Reeve of York ; Andrew Rumell, 18f.

His 'mplemeuts are nearlv new and in first-class condition. [’ar- ties wishing to purchase brood mares will do well to at:end this sale, as several will he sold of the pure Clydesdale Type. Intend- ing pmcbasorn coming by train will he met at either Richmond Hill,’1‘boruhill or Union- ville stations, and taken back in tune for theevening train, 'by communicating with thopi'oprietor previous to the day of sale. No doubt farmers and stock raisers will at. tend from allparts 6f the province. The sale which commences at 12 o’clock will he under the management of Mr. Sulem‘Eckurdt the popular and well known auctioneer. Before‘commencing his sermon on Sunday evening, Rev. Mr. Barker gave notice that in future the mode of procedurn in the Metho- dist service would be slightly changed as fol- lows. At the usual time the congregatlou will he asked to repeat with the minister the Lords Prayer. Also the prayer usually given at the cioee will follow directly after the Ber. men. The service will close with the bene- diction. Mr. Barker said the change had been recommended by the Conference, and had since been adopted in the city and mauv other churches. He thought the new at rangementiwas probably better. and trusted the congregation would look upon it favor- ably, if for no other reason than to main- tain uniformity with other churches and ministers, Sermons in Methodist Church. Rev. W. R. Barker preached the first. of a. series of sermons on the “Lord's Day," last Sunday evening to a large and interested congregation. His theme was the perpe- tuity of the Sabbath as a divine institutlon. His arguments were forcible and convincing showing clearly that the Sabbath was insti- tuted at the creation of man, and that the obligation to keep it holy was perpetual and universal. He will preach the second of the series next Sunday morning at halfâ€"past ten. Such sermons cannot fail to draw large con- gregations. Dr. Gilmour Waited On. A Slight Change.
