NO GOOD ROADS BYLAW. I CHURCH NOTES.
County Council Failed to Agree at
Special Meeting.
The :county council held a special
meeting at 8eeforth on Tuesday and
\Vedueaday of Oita week to cuusider
the bylaw under which it was in-
tended the ceu•ty of Hwvn should
participate in the Provincial toad im-
provement feud. The mutter has
been 41iscusad off and on in the coun
it for two or three years, and itt the
Januetry session the movement was,
it was thought, advanced perceptibly ;
but the result of this week's meeting
set'ms to leave the council as far away
Jul
ever from ,In agreement under
which effective action can be taken.
The comical met in the Seaforth
town hull on'1'ieselay afternoon, and
after sumo discussion it was decided
that the url'an and the rural tepee-
txentativus should meet ,n separate
committee % to consider their respec-
tive interests in the project and to
draw up it plan of the roads to be in-
cludes! ill the scheme of improvement.
A difficulty presented' itself in the fact
that in melee parts of the county the
leading roads 1(11' in much better con-
dition than in other portions, and
some of the representatives were
afraid that their townships would be
placed at a disadvantage in the work-
ing out lit the scheme. However, u
Iplan wdrawn up which seemed to
" ars fairly tatisfnetory all round.
Yesterday morning the council met
again. and considerable progress was
made .luring the day. The prupusi•
hon that a system of county Wads
should be established was carried 1'
the narrow maturity of 2, but on the
second reading of rho bylaw the fatal
obstacle cattle up on the question as
to how long the county. after assum-
ing the roads to be improved, would
be obliged to keep them up. On
learning that the county would have
to maintain the road!, tor three years
after the completion of the scheme of
impnn•emeul, and thereafter until re-
leased from the obligation by the con-
sent of a majority of the 'moor multi-
, ipalitiea, some of the tnenilx'rs lib
jccted, and on the taking of a vote
the bylaw teal defeated by a majority
of 3. This ended the matter.
The bylaw under consideration was
not the one that was diaeusaetl itt the
January session. It had been ascer-
taiuetf len the interim that the On-
tario Government would not give its
assent to the latter, :and the Middle-
sex bylaw, which had received the
approval of the Government, wan
then adopted as the plan under which
Huron county should proceed.

garding a reunion of former member's

...............
Hundreds of Garments to sell at Maker's Price and Less
ONCE AGAIN we have been fortunate enough to secure from one of
Canada's foremost makers of white wear his complete range of
sample garments. These samples are charged to us at one-quarter
to one-third less than the prices of the goods they represent have been
sold at from one end of Canada to the other. All are in first-class con-
dition, save that some may be slightly soiled from handling. Before being
shipped all were sent to the pressing room of the factory to be refolded,
and to all intents and purposes are as fresh as if taken from the boxes.
In the lot are dozens of high-grade garments better than we usually carry
in stock.
Saturday, February 29th
the whole lot goes on sale for the first time. Hundreds and hundreds of
garments, all perfect and all marked at prices that are decidedly money-
saving. We bought them one-quarter to one-third less than regular, and
are going to sell the same way.
