The meeting ' was largely attended. One subject discussed was that of cig- arette smoking amongst boys. Quite small boys- are often seen smoking these on our streets. The law states that:—No boy under sixteen may smoke cigarettes, neither may anyone sell or give a cigarette paper to any lad under sixteen without breaking the law and incurring a severe penalty A reading was also given on the work of..Mrs Adams, W.

Reeve Joynt,Lucknow is charterin.ga. special train to convey the Bruce Council to Goderich on Thursday, June 9th- On the way down a stop maybe made at Clinton to allow the Bruce members to visit the Huron County house of refuge. In the even- ing a banquet will be held in Goderich for the entertainment of the visitors, and the visitors will return at mid- night: It is suggested that as this meeting is in the nature of a reunion,. 'Huron ane Bruce -being "` formerly' united,_ the gathering should include also the county Council of Perth, as in the old .days the three counties =were united, with their meeting place at Goderich. This would make a notable gathering and County Clerk Lane is busy m conference with Warden Irwin making preparations tor the event. Students Preparing Far Their Examinations The end of this month public school pupils in the fourth.: books, if their in- tention is to continue• their education further will be called upan to write on their entrance examination._ Two weeks later the high school students in the upper forms will puzzle over geometrical problems and verse and arose in the dead languages toqualify i i into the University their,admr anon or Model School. Failure to pass means the loss of a year. This may mar the 'career, of a student and it is a crisis in his young life. Mother,father, sister and brother will watch anxious- ly for the returns. Disappointment means more thin the fact of having to study another year. To the older. students in the upper forms of the high school, the seriousness of the situ ation is borne home very strongly. They are anxious to reach the Uni- vrersity and to complete their course of study in the vocation of life they have determined to follow. But to the students who write on the En- trance it is different. It is the first great test, of their knowledge to which they have been subjected; it looks big; has a glamour that fascinates them; but success means much to the pro- gress they will make when they reach the secondary school, They do not realize this, and some • who have the abilityto carry honors, fail to pass through neglect. It is the duty of every father and mother in Clinton to watch closely over the pupil at this stage. He must be encouraged and granted priveleges, Give him all the time he wants and allow the younger brother to run the messages to the store or chop the wood for the morn- ing tire. Fire him with ambition by inspiring talks on the lives of men who . have succeeded, Make him realize what failuremeans to- those who have paid for his education,and also what a detriment it will be to him to have to sit in a class with boys and girls who are now one book below him in school. If parents would do this there would be less failures in our schools. Principals and teachers would be 'encouraged and the boy or girl would make a better student. Let this year be the most successful Clin- ton has ever known for high percent - ales ht the various departmental palters and a lower pereentapre of 1 failures in the various examinations. ° THE We D.

Every town is peculiarly fitted 'forlsome.one enterprise more than another, and as soon as it is ascertained what would be most conductive to the growth and prosperity of the place the citizens should take hold of the matter and push it for all there' is in it. One man cannot make a town: The newspaper. cannot do it. But one man ora news- paper with the help of the wide-awake men of the place all pulling togethe can make a wide difference in a place Every man who succeeds in a town is a help to it.. The more money he makes if he spends it the -better for the community. The larger business, he builds up,•t-he more he advertises, the more attention is called to 'the Own. A man cannot build' up an honorable business in a town without helping the county. The interest of one is the interest of all. The rivalry that sometimes exists between towns in the same` county is -short-sight policy.. 44+++++ ++++++++++++++++++44-0+++++++++++++++++++++++÷* i-++++4•+++'l-+4fi-0++-1•+++'1-+++3'+d-d•+-F3-++-F+++÷,g, .1.
