“Successful Barn Dances. There have been two very successful barn dances held at Mr. Shelley Anderson’s on the front of Thurlow. Very large crowds turned out for both and everyone had a delightful evening. The proceeds were very gratifying. There was $128 for the Thurlow Red Cross from the first and $100 to be divided between Thurlow Red Cross and the Belleville Branch of the Canadian War Contingent Association from the last.
A very great deal of credit is due both Mr. and Mrs. Anderson for all their work in connection with these entertainments. Besides a pleasant evening for all there was a large sum raised for a good cause.”

“Patriotic Youths. Some of our small boy citizens are doing their bit by making and selling lemonade. They have formed themselves into a club and are known as the ‘Boys Belgian Relief Club.’ So far they have made by their efforts $7.10 and handed it to Mrs. J. F. Dolan, treasurer, for the Belgian Relief to be sent for the poor Belgian refugees who are so much in need of any help that can be given them. These boys are to be commended and should be encouraged by every one.—And it is good lemonade, too.—Try it.”
