AT THE BIG FAIR,
Messrs. A. J. Grigg, . John Rice, R.
Fitzsimons, W. Johnson and C. Levy
were among those of our citizens
who attended the Winter Fair at
Guelph last week. Mr. Fitzsimons
was, " of course, most interested in
cattle but the others mentioned are
chicken fanciers and were highly pleas-
ed with the great exhibit. To win
prizes in suce a display means qual-
ity of the highest and Mr. Grigg's
birds being awarded six prizes, is
indication of class that of it-
self will be 'nuff• said. He also made
several good sales.
AN ACCIDENT.

upon the walk on front of her home
on Wednesday evening last:: Nei .one.
saw her fall and her tails for • help
were unheard but fortunately . Gab.
Elliott happened along and he assist-
ed Mrs. Grigg into the house. The
doctor was summoned when it was
found that Mrs, Gnigg's shoulder was
dislocated and her hip injured. The
exposure had also chilled her through
and through and this together. ' with
the • ilijury she sustained •has since
kept her confined to her room. Mrs.'
Grigg is one of our oldest And most
respected. residents and .the friends
out' of town, who have noti • yet

gret,
ABOUT XMAS DECORATIONS:
The following is an abstract from
a circular sent to Mr. R. A. Downs,
,-Chief of our local fire brigade, . ,,by
the secretary of the Underwriters'
Association.
"Following our usual custom at
this season of the year I beg'te call
your attention 'ta the danger to life -
and property from Christmas dedora-
trons, displays, etc., . which, are Ire-
quently'rnade at this time of the
year. The use of Christmas greens,
harvest specimens and other inflate -
able materials • such as draperies,
scenery, cotton to represent . snow,
and the like, (especially in Connection

TEB SPECIAL MEETING.
A. special meeting of the• • Public
school board was held on Thursday
evening last, when general business
was transected. At the regular meet-
ing, held the week previous, . the
property committee was instructed to
have the .pump removed from the well
at the school and advertised for sale,
it being no longer needed, ' -water-
works having been installed. It so
happened, however, that several
families in the vicinity„ of the sehool
had been using water from the well
and as it is impossible to get water-
works in until spring, these people
were being very much inconvenienced.
1t Was decided, therefore; at the.
last meeting to replace the pump and
leave the same In until June 15th
next, the families being benefited to
re-einburse the board for -the cost of
rotaoving and replacing it. The fol-
lowing very satisfactory report was
received from Inspector Robb :
"I beg ?Lave to report that T vis-
ited your school on Nov, 16th, 17th
and 180. As usual, I found the
wheel house and premises in a per-
fectly satisfactory condition, The
progress,, management, discipline and
order of the various rooms were quite
satisfactory ; everything was runn-
ing as smoothly tee clock work. The
two new teachers seem to he quite
eonmett nt to do the work assigned to.
them. The trustees and teachers have
so lined up to the mark that there is
nothing to criticize advetxsely in the
entire management of the school.
The board and staff deserve the en-
tioe, confidenee of the ratepayers.

was a little less tlic past season than
ire 1909, being 1'6.9; but that was

Reyes pertains to the welfare of hum-
anity, be manages to keep busy most
of the time, At Conference last June
he completed his fifty years in the
ministery, During the past few
menthe he has been called into service
a great part of the time to fi11 ' the
place of pastors who were ;ill or away
and even when not thus engaged he is
seldom idle ; time never hangs heavy
on hie hands. Having lived sanely
and wholesomely, life has not palled
upon hien. With clean-cut •convictions
of right and wrong he has always had
the courage of those eonvietions and
has defended his prineiples without
flinching. Being a "Good fighter, and
