(From our own correspondent.) July 19. The Hibernian Society held a social on Friday evening, July 11, at which there was a large attendance. Last Sunday night the choir gave a sacred concert in aid of the bazaar funds. The church was crowded to the doors. As this one was so successful, it has" been decided to hold another shortly.' On Friday evening, July 18, the Children of Mary held a well-attended euchre party in aid of their stall. An entertainment is given every Friday night, and it is very encouraging to the committee to see the people attending so well.

Last Wdnesday ;: night " the Druids entertained the members of the' local H.A.B.C.- Society; at a- euchre tournament. The Druids won by 18 games to 15. Songs were given by Rev..
