Mr. Ken Mitchell of Downs- view. carried off a charmingly simple old pine church pew, apâ€" proximately five feet long. and with the back constructed of a single pine board about 20 inches wide. Mr. Mitchell said he would have gladly given twice the $18. he paid for it and was agreeably surprised to learn that it had come from his old home town of Port Hope. Another interesting (hair was a distinctive Quebec rocker which was put in the salehy the auc- tioneer himself. Mr. Gordon Sel- lers. MI'.

The cow bell. he suggested to his responsive audience. would be good for some lady to hang on her husband! Mrs. K.

An- other item which came from Thornhill. and which would cer- tainly evoke nostalgic memories from many oldtimers. was an old copper school ink can, with a graceful curved spout.
