TO WHOM CREDIT IS DUE

TO WHOM RED IS DUE.
In speaking of the fair it would be unjust
and unfair not to mention the ladies to
whom credit for its success is due. For
over W. months a number of the ladies of
the church have been at work, early and
late, making fancy articles, accommodating
handsome ard attractive articles to
beautify the hall and enrich the treasury
of the church, and it is indeed gratifying
to their admiring friends to know that not
only were their efforts crowned with sue
cess, but that in a dull year they scored
one of the greatest triumphs since the
establishment of the church.
10 no one is more praise due than to
Mrs. Mathew Cunard, whose labors in the
interest of the tair have been unceasing
sirce it's inception. Mrs. Charles Kupitz,
who was associated with Mrs. Cunard in
another who has earned the appreci ,tion
of all who are interested in the welfare Of
the church.
The refreshment tables, which have be en-
so important a feature of the fair, were un-
der the supervision of Mrs. Gillespie and
Mrs. Westminster, and to them the thanks
OF all who took advantage of the culinary
excellence are due.
The fancy table, where presided Misses
Annie RoDidou and Alice Fox, showed
how faithfully these young. ladies had Ia
bored. Misses Della Halloran and Celia
Conway won laurels at the fish pond and
postofice, and Miss Maggie Richie rem
dered praiseworthy service at the confec-
tiOnery stand.
LII short, all of the ladies of the church,
including Mrs. Alexander Mckenzie, who
so generously aided all in their efforts.
earned the highest praise.

and his congregation are to be congratu-
lated.

reflect upon me and my house, and as
many Of the statements therein contained
are entirely untrue, I deem it well to make
some explanations.
