The Goderich Home Ottani is now an established tact. A meeting we - held on Monday evening at which Captain H. C. Dunlop was unanimous- ly elected as drill instructor. Within a few minutes of his call to office Cap- tain Dunlop had the company fall in, when it was found that the town hall did not supply sufficient space for company drill and an adjournment was made to the roadway below. For upwards of half an hour the newly formed company was kept vigorously on the alert learning the Initial stages of milker y drill. Captain Dunlop will need to exercise much pat ience before bre will be able to get anything like a military bearing to fit upon the Home Guard, composed as it le of men in every walk of life, many of whom have had not the slightest military ex- perience. That the Captain means business was displayed by the fact that ooe of the first orders war: "Pipes out, and quit talking." One thing we did not just understand was why there was such a large number of able-bodied men it) the crowd of spectators,. who might have taken places in the ranks of the Home Guard. Encourage the Children. The people of Goderieb will have an opportunity next week of encourag- ing a very laudable effort which is being made hy a number of yomog children of town.

To This end they in- tend to bold a bazaar and afternoon tea in the Tempersnoe Hall on Satur- day, the 10th inst., from 2 to 7 o'clock. The charge for admission and era is only 10 Dents. sod everybody ought to go and show appreciation of the ehildren'a effort to assist and et the same time add to tbe fund for Belgian relief.

Some particu- larly sad cases were cited which re- quite the exercise of great skill and care. It war decided to acquaint the county council with the facie sur- rounding some of the cases, as it is probable they s ill become a perwa- neat charge to the mussy, During the last week or so particularly good work has been done and homes have been found for some who would other- wise have faced a winter of great hardship.

Government seta very liberally, paying two-thif the salaries of tbe teachers of each drama and forty per ceot. of the cost of equiptnent the first year, and twenty per cent. each of the next three years. The board with the aid of the advisory committee would have to make all the necessary ar- rangements for the chimes, and would bave full control over them.
