F. VIRGIN DIES SUDDENLY IS OBSERVED EXAM RESULTS Much Respected Citizen and Veteran Omngfman Puxsed Away on Sunday Evening. Maxwell Stevenson, Chilliwack's oldest and highly esteemed citizen, passed away late on Sunday afternoon after an illness of a few He had been a resident of Chilliwack since 1887. Mr. Steven eon was born at Dawn Patrick; County Down, Ireland, in September, 1830, and came to Canada at the age of 16.

with his parents, tj 'brothers and two sisters, in the three masted sailing ship Waterford. The trip across took six weeks and three days. lie made himself so useful to the crew that the captain endeavored to sign him on when the vessel arrived at Quebec. One of his feats during the trip was climb the mainmast and hang his hat on the ball at the top. The family lived some years in Norfolk 'County, where Mr.

Stevenson followed farming and building, erecting many buildings in that section of tbu iprovince, some of them of field stone construction, un moving to uaun wack Mr. Stevenson continued to farm and engaged in the building trade as well, the Presbyterian church and the 'residence of Dr. Henderson being among the buildings erected by him. Mr. Stevenson was very proud of his association with the Orange Order and was ardently loyal to its principles and membership, and was probably the oldest member of the order in Canada.

He was a member of the Royal Black Preceptory, the highest degree of the order, and was an encyclopaedia on the work and lectures in the many degrees. He first joined a boys' brigade in Ireland at the age of twelve, and on coming to Canada joined the older ody. During the eighty years of membership it is doubtful it Mr. Stevenson missed celebrating the Twelfth of July by taking his place in an "Orange Walk" on a Bingle occasion, and last year went to New Westminster with the members of Chilliwack Lodge, which he with others was instrumental in forming. He was intensely loyal to Canada and the Empire and proud of the old flag.

A year ago yesterday morning, the writer saw the old gentleman running up the Union Jack on the flag pole on the top pi his two storey building on Nowell street, after he had ascended to the roof by climbing a ladder at the rear, and after resolutely declining any assistance. At the celebration of the Armistice here in November, 1918, hl8 "hitting up" the big drum was one of the enlivening incidents of that lively afternoon. While suffering several serious accidents during his life he enjoyed good health until a few months ago, and retained bis memory to a remarkable degree, remembering distinctly the incidents in his life from early youth. Among the latter was his recollection of the celebrations connected with the cor oratlon of the late Queen Victoria, while one of the proudest and happiest incidents of his life was his meeting the Prince of Wales at New Westminster during, his visit to the Coast in October, 1919. Mr.

Stevenson was a staunch Presbyterian, an elder in Cpoke's Church during almost his entire residence here, and rarely failed to occupy his accustomed aeat at one or both services each Sunday, in politics he was a life long Conservative. Stevenson is survived by one son, Mr. Maxwell Stevenson, of Rpsedale, and two daughters, Mrs. John McLeod, Camp Slough, Mrs. Bartlett.

Campbell and about forty members of the Orange Order attended in a body pay their trtbuute of respect and regard to one who had for bo many years had been so closely Identified with the Order in Canada and in Chilliwack. The pall bearers were official members of Cooke's church.

The late Mr. Stevenson was a fine type of that sterling, rugged pioneer character, which marked many of Canada's early' settlers. Imbued with a great love of thelt adopted Canada and the Mother Land, a deep reverence for things religious, and faith in the moral certainties of life, honest, neighborly, generous and true to friends and principles, they (built the foundations of Canadian Citizenship, which in peace and war, is characteristic, and ha9 won the praise of nations, and the admiral tion and loyalty of the Increasing numbers who are taking their places in the building of a still greater and Total of One Hundred and Seventy Three Preprae for High School Tests at Four Centres. One hundred and forty eight students, by far the largest number to have taken the entrance examinations in the Chilliwack Valley at one time, completed the government tests on Friday. Last year the examinations were all written at one centre, the Chilliwack High school, but this year with an increase of twenty two above what was then considered a large number, it was found necessary to hold the tests at four centres In the Valley, namely, Central school, Sardis, Hosedale and East Chilliwack, Principal Woodworth of the High school making regular rounds of supervision.

In addition to the 148 taking the tests there were also 25 passed on recommendation, making a total of 173. The total number last year was 147 so that an increase all through the school system in Chilliwack is evident. Providing the usual aver age passes the examinations, the attendance at the high school at the re opening in September will likely break all previous records and extend that institution's facilities to the utmost. The number from the different schools taking the entrance examinations were: Central school, city, 31 (also 25 passed on recommendation); Atchelitz, Camp Slough, Cneam. East Chilliwack, Fairfield Island, Lotbinlere, Robertson, 15; Rosedale, 21; Sardis, 22; Strathcona, Sumas, Vedder, Cheam View, Coqua leetza Institute, total 14 8.

ROBERTSON P. T. A. SPORTS Residents of Robertson School district and particularly members of the Robertson P. T.

A. are very proud of their branch of the national association. Only two years old, this P. T. A.

has a very enviable record, gained from its unusual en ergy and activity in all lines pertaining to betterment of conditions in the Robertson seat of learning. Further laurels were gained on Friday, when through their second annual field day, another highly successful affair, they were able to pay off the balance of the debt on the piano. Though an Interetsing display of school work in all Its phases, par ticularly in manual training, alone was well worth the visit of the many parents and others who signed the visitors book, a varied programme had also been arranged by the P. T. A.

A full card of field and track events was worked off under the direction of Messrs. John Keenlejy slde and Principal C. C. The Cadets' band was in attendance in full uniform and added a pleasing touch of color to the scene as well as their numbers on the programme. Accompanied by Miss Gwennie McCutcheon on the piano a number of "selections" were rendered by Cyril Trott on the "jazz whistle." Violin solos were rendered by Miss Ethel Rogers, accompanied by Miss Berle Banford, and piano solections by Mrs.

M. E. Smith. One of the most popular of the children's attractions was the fish pond, presided over by Mrs. C.Katzman and Mrs.

A. Anderson. Mrs. Harold Densbam was general convener of the affair and besides those already mentioned in charge of the various attractions, she was assisted by Mrs. II.

Raine, Mrs. W. J. Vick erson, Mrs. C.

E. Davis, refreshments; Mrs. J. Keenleyside, candy stall; Mrs. Wilfred Kipp, soft drinks; Mrs.

S. Eatock, ice cream; Mrs. W. McCutcheon and Mrs. Wheaton, home cooking.

The basement of the school was wonderfully decorated and the refreshment tables laid there. TROPHY FOR BASEBALL LEAGUE Further impetus will be given the fixtures in the Intermediate Baseball League by the offer of Messrs. Fox Spencer, city merchants, of a handsome cup as a trophy to the winning team of the series. Through another local firm the cup Is now on order in the East and will shortly be on view In the donors' store windows. The offer of Messrs.

Fox Spencer was accepted by the league with great appreciation as a suitable piece of silverware was considered the only thing lacking to make the prospects of this league exceedingly bright for the summer months. Naturally the appreciation of the teams will be noted in a keener competition. more ennobled Canada. The late Mr. Stevenson did well his part in his sphere, and has won his plaoe among those pioneers of Canada, whose memory will be revered and cherished.
