As I write and look on a report sent me by the present Sunday School Secretary I see that no account of meetings seem available from 1880 to 1889, but I think I can supply that mostly. After Union Geo. Quernie who had been superintendent of the Primitive Sunday School was elected to the chair of the church and as the history of the school seems to centre around its superintendents after Quernie, Geo. Brown was in the chair. Then from 1889-1892 Henry Hopper.

THURSDAY, APRIL 20th, 1933 The Sunday School, as now, com- menced at 1 p.m., and functioned for an hour. The meeting Was held in the body of the church as there was only one room. In the South-West Corner was the librarian’s cupboard with the books, also a dron door for a desk. Divisions of tin kept the books in place and one could get a book every two weeks. We leai‘ned the catechism in those days and were expected to repeat all without the book. Of the teachers, I can say veryl little, the first one I recollect was‘ John Love, who taught our boysl class. Later Maria Brown (now Mrs.‘ Geo. Love) was our teacher and from; this excellent teacher we learned‘ many of the truths that have followed. us down the years. Mr. Ansley, a‘ teacher of 8.8. No. 4, was one of the S. S. teachers, a Mr. Matthews was another. Mary Trudgeon was tea- ther of a girls class and I believe Mrs. Mary Cook taught the primary class. Jos. Perkins was organist and at Christmas time trained the school in singing. We had to obey him im- plicitly and then all was well. He gave us excellent training and the Christmas choruses were of the very best. Often his hands woud leave the keyboard and we soon stopped sing- ing to be put back on the right track. Then he would get one of the girls to playâ€"usuallyâ€"Hermie Mustardâ€" and go back and listen. But he was very fair and kind if strict and thor- ough in practice. Others dealt with the dialogues, etc., and the platform in the old church built for this Christ- mas occasion rose from the floor step like stairs and those sitting on the top step could touch the ceiling. From these steps we descended to speak pieces or take part in dialogues. We all stood up to sing and with well-filled and nicely decorated Christmas trees on either side the sight was very imposing and inspir- ing. Santa came and presented the candies. oranges as well as presents and at that time many got “cells” of various sorts. \Stephen Lawson once got a very very small cabbage head wrapred up in an immense parcel. Some one got a very nice looking donkey that would wag its head and ears when the spring was touched, and Pete Hagerman got a can. of ‘mustard to remind him of the name of his sweetheart. After the laugh no one seemed peeved and the‘ Christ- mas spirit ruled the hour. I once found the old secretary book Paying $650 for three “antique” but not wishing to take what was not tables for a reception room in the mine left it in the new church, but Parliament Buildings, Toronto, was when I searched for it, this relic of an unnecessary extravagance even in former days had vanished.

Lawson Jr. readingflxnectorating‘ at a crack in the side- the secretary‘s report and later his walk and bragging about the things brother Charles filled the position. she used to do. Later the Wesleyan Sunday School grew stronger as its sister Sunday School to the North g'rew weaker and when the terms of Union were signed in 1884 the scholars of both churches had mingled for so lon~ that; the change was scarcely noticed as from 1880 to 1884 there had been a partial union locally. Before taking up the Sunday School would like to refer to the passing of two old timers mentioned in these glimpses. Recently there passed in Toronto at the home of his daughter Mrs. Lowe, John Querrie, a Victoria Square boy who in the youthful days ‘was interested in music and organ- ized a tin whistle band. Later after leaving,r the old town he became noted band leader and was bandmaster of the 12th battalion band Aurora. More will be said of this family later. The other, Rev. W. A. Rodwell, a former Primitive Methodist Pastor for some years on the Stouffville circuit of which The Square was an anoointment. Mr. Rodwell was very highly respected and if any of his church members are still living they will regret his passing. He married Mary J. Garner the daughter of a former Pastor who lived at The Square when The Square was head of a circuit. The Weslyan Sunday School dates back to 1845 or thereabouts. Of its founding there is not much to show. but we all went there as well as to the Primitive Sunday School so long as I can remember. Twice to Sunday School on a Sunday in those days was of frequent occurrence. The reason for this, the Primitive was on Sunday morning, the Weslyan in the afternoon just before Church service. GLIMPSES OF THE PAST THE SUNDAY SCHOOL Victoria Square 5. S. from 1832 (By E. J. Hitchcock) The farmer wofks hard and as soon as he can. he moves to the citv. As scan as a citv man can afford it he builds him a home in the country. SENSATIONAL DISCLOSURES AT MILK ENQUIRY The milk inquiry continues to fur; nish the most sensational news at the capital. A former book-keeper of a Montreal dairy} company swore that by use‘ of ‘i‘ictitious’ surplus that is, giving only surplus price to farmers and then selling the milk to consumers at the regular rate, the company in the first nine months of 1931 had paid producers from 3c. to 19c. less per hundred pounds than the farmers were entitled to, and that in the one month of September, 1931, alone, this was equal to cheating the farmers out of $1,370. After all, mused the philosopher, you never saw a woman lolling a- round town, leaning against a wall, exnectorating at a crack in the side- walk and bragging about the things she used to do. W. H. Taylor (Lib. Norfolk-Elgin) told the committee he had been inâ€" formed that the Bordn Comepany of New York had telephoned its Can- adian office to ‘clear all files’ of ev- idence which might be damaging if brought out at the inquiry. Officials of the company were unable to throw anyrlight on this alleged conversation. The Borden subsidiary at Ottawa, 21 $1,700,000 company, has built up reserves of over two million dollars. of which $745,761 represents profits made in the past five years; The New York company owns all the‘stock and can at any time remove this profit surplus to the United States, witnesses stated. Asked if he knew of any farmer in the Ottawa area who had built up any kind of a re- serve by producing milk for them, the general manager of the Ottawa dairy admitted that he could not name any. Bradford municipal council has given public notice that in future for no reason whatsoever will the town supply vegetables to those on relief, and advises those who in the past have been dependent on the munici- pality for such vegetables to get busy right now and cultivate a garden. George Draper has been appointed as superintendent of works for the town of Orillia at a salary of $18.00 per week. The former oceupant of the position received $1300 per year. York County farmers are now ready to get ahead with the seedingâ€"just as soon as the weather settles. Next week should see spring operations well under way. As usual we would like to hear from the first farmers in the different communities to com- plete seeding. McCag‘ue. 1905-7 Geo. Gee, 1908-11 Geo. McCag'ue, 1912 L. L. Nichols, then from 1913-1920 Geo. McCag'ue, 1921-23 R. F. Boynton, 1924-26 L. L. Nichols, 1927-34 R. F. Boynton. (To be continued) The Collingwood Enterprise-Bul- letin aptly observes that “no news- paper can retaih its high standard and continue to give the service that is expected or demanded of it with- out the loyalty and support of those whom it serves.” ‘ Paying: $650 for three “antique” tables for a reception room in the Parliament Buildings, Toronto, was an unnecessary extravagance even in 1831 when these pieces of furniture were bought. Penetanguishene spent $5.425 on re- lief orders in March or 8175 per day, as compared with $214 per day in February. Mr. Bennett appointed his brother- inâ€"law as Minister to Washington, and now President Roosevelt has named his cousin as Minister to Otâ€" tawa. Kind of a familv affair. Premier Henry is still debating whether 01' not to face the electors of Ontario this year. The electors are waiting for him, when he makes the decision. In feeding barley to horses, care should be taken that it is never finely ground because it makes a sticky meal which adheres to the horse’s teeth and cheeks. ‘ It appears that cool moist weather such as we have in spring is the most favourable for the development of apple scab.

It is to be hoped that Mr. MacKeracher will soon be restored to health and able to be in our midst again. Mr. Lawrence, Principal of Agin- court Continuation School, was the speaker at the Y.P. meeting held on Sunday evening in Ebenezer Church. Mr. Cecil Brittian had charge. of the meeting. On Friday night there was a col- lision between a motor car and a motorcycle just North of Milliken on the Kennedy Road. Robert A. Geall, a passenger on the motorcycle, was removed to the Toronto East General Hospital with a broken collar- bone and internal injuries. . The motor car was driven by William Curtis, 225 Gledhill Avenue, an East York grocer. Both the car and the motorcycle landed in the ditch. Cur- tis suffered a broken knee cap and his wife minor injuries. Mr. and Mrs. Curtis are well known in this community. a visit ‘to their grand parents in Scotland.
