The hymns sung were "Unto u the Hills Around Do I Lift Up My Longing Eyes", and "Abide With Me'', and a favorite hymn of the deceased, "In the Sweet Bye And Bye" was sweetly renv:lered'by the choir under the direction of Mrs. Marion Anderson.

Personally being unable to be present, I know the thoughts of all who were there, as they saw the 3 casket containing the remains of a dearly beloved rieiid lowered to mother earth, recalled the words of the Master "Well done good and faithful servant, enter into the Joys oi the Lcrd."

Successful Play At St. Peter's Hall

."Ilhe hilarious comedy "Maid of Money”, one of Vivian Mayo's best liked comedies, played its last date for the summer season at St. Peter's Legion Hall on Wednesday evening, June 4th, under the sus- pices of the St. Peter's Community Fire Department.

Notwithstaiiding other entertain- ments being lield in the immedi- ate vicinity, a splendid audience turned out to enjoy a real good show throughout and assist the most viorthy cause. The entire cast of players gave a. most realis- tic portrayal of the parts assigned them by their veteran director Mr. Trainor.

The vaudeville specialties be- tween acts were of the big time variety, including Scantlebury and Mills, acrobatic artists, who pre- sented a. brilliant lesson in phys- icnl fitness at its best. Between the second and tlilrd acts, the guy with the green gloves put over twenty verses of comedy songs and patter that had the audience ask- ing for more. Ding Connolly was musical director for the show and was highly praised for his splen- did work.

Much 'credit is due Fire Chief Henry MacDougall and Daniel MacDonald, School Principal, for thcir splendid co-operation, also to the stage property donors and the ladies of the community who assisted in serving adelicious buf- fet lunchcon after the stage show.

Austie's players have been en- gaged to appear here again in the fall with a new show under the same auspices.
