The open meeting of the Farm ers’ Union held last Thursday was quite a success. The speak ing was very good and it is en tirely superfluous to say that the supper was enjoyed by all.

B. services next Sunday evening will be in charge o f De Vere Fendall, the topic being “ Our Denominational and For eign Mission Boards: Their His tory and Achievement.” The C. E. society was to have held a so cial at the chnrch Friday even ing, November 16th, bnt it has been postponed because of the scarlet fever in the community. Through some misunderstand ing, Rev. F.£L£tannard failed to arrive last Sunday, and the time which would have been taken in preaching services was given to Supt. A. C. Stanbrough and Rev. H. G. Crocker o f Newberg. They devoted their time to the solicita tio n of subscriptions for the Y. M. C. A. campaign, and though many people were not prepared for such a meeting,, the amount subscribed was quite gratifying. The money which would ordi narily have been paid to the minister was, by vote of the con gregation, turned over to the Y. M. C. A. The school fair which was held at the Bwing Young school last Friday, though not widely ad vertised, was very well attended. Cash prizes on the exhibits were awarded to the extent of $66. As was to be expected, District No. 10 “ came in” for the largest share in the money, nearly every pupil of the school getting some prize. Miss Rosie Hesgard was the highest individual prize win ner, gaining six firsts and tw o seconds. In the cow judging con test, Leonard Versteeg was high point winner, and his sister, Miss Beulah, was a close second. The program presented intheevening was highly entertaining and combined not only local talent but also the talent of County Agriculturists Shrock and Jame son of Yamhill and Washington counties respectively. Jameson gave a review of the exhibits and j dwelt upon the standards to be ; attained in prize livestock and j produce, while Shrock kept the crowd in an uproar with several comic recitations. We hope to see the school fair an annual event. REX and they will spend several weeks visiting relatives and friends. Mr. and Mr*. J.
