By a stroke of bad luck or bad man-
agement somewhere, the dates for the
fall fairs at Lucknow and Winghain are
this year th,e same—September '28 and
29. • Realizing the disadvantage of this
arrangement a delegation from the Wing-
hans Agriculttiral Society visited Luck -
now last Friday everting in an Uffort to

for Lucknow changed, A conference
with representatives Of the Lucknow
Agricultural Society was 'held at the
secretary's office, and the whole matter
threshed out?. No arrangement fOr
change, however was arrived at, both'
societies feeling that preparations for

Fire At teeswater
--,' Mr. G. H. Hasenflug's general store t t
Teeswater last week had unarrow escape°
from copeAlete deetruction by fire. Early
in the evening -a bonfire of Waste paper
and boxes was made in the back yard,
and it is thought'that from this fire had
crept to a wooden structure at the rear
of the brick building. There WaS a
lively conflagration' but, the fire* brigade
Was early on the job and suCceeded in
getting control of the flames, not, how-
ever, until a good deal of damage Was
done. A large quantity , of fur goods
• being carried over from last winter was
stored in the rear of the store and these,
together with the furnishings Of the resi-'
dence, which is over the store, were
greatly damaged. The stock was fairly
well protected by insurance and it is
thought Mr. Hasengug will not be a
heavy loser. With everything as dry as
tinder alight wind would have made
it impassible to prevent the store being
completely gutted.

rather than by the quality or number of

"a joust of arms". At these tburnaments

There are many reasons Why a man

Ment Canadian physician recommends
-bowling-as' being the Most beneficial;
physically; of all sport% ' Any form of
exercise whfcli does not -entertain the
mind, or which the individual does . not
enjoy, is practically useless. Forced
recreation fails in its purpose. The
interest- in .this game keen •and it
devolops the judgment and self-control
of the player. Then, again, it is a gentle-
man's game. Profanity, wrangling 'and
the indecent conduct which mar the
enjoyment of inany„ other sports, are'
conspicuous by -their absence on the
bowling -green. Harmony and fairness
prevail and men, whose friendship has
beeonie somewhat strained through busi-
ness competition, forget their little differ-
ences in the general enjoynient. Finan-
cial and ether worries are thrown aside
and for the tunedull care loses its effect.
Probably the observer is most struck
by the optimistic spirit which prevails
et the, present tournament.' The partic-
ipants in thegame have in almost frantic
desire to be agreeable. For instance, a
bowl intended to be lodged somewhere.
near the kitty comes wobbling down the
green. ."Well," yells the skip, "you're
about ten feet short, pretty narrow and
with the wrong'draw. Outside of that;
though, it's a pretty fair bowl." A
nunute later a bowl comes whizzing down
the green, misses the kittiky seven feet,
bumps into the ridge at the end of the
lawn and over it, crashes through the
fence and goes Completely out or the
premises. "tittle strong, AAA a good
back bowl," shouts the skip again, still -
undisniayed. Just at 'this moment a'
'sensational shot ie-madit bran artiet onH
a neighboring rink. A &aerie of ladies
and their admirers sitting Closeby show
their appreciation, of this good w.irolc by
a hearty outburst ofhand-clapping. The
gentleman who has just delivered the
"good hack bowl", naturally thinking
She applause is for himself, recognizes it
by lifting his hat. Another player corn -
Plains that "his bowl&nil always bowl
the same", and receives mmiediate sYm-
pathy. It is always the seine thing --
optimism, rules.
