A citizen calls the attention of The
S' al to • statement in a recent issue
of The Godrrich Star to the effect that beep all the teachers and scholars ct
there are nearly one hunthis
vacant t Victoria and Central schools and the
houses in town. If this number is
anywhere nearly correct, says this cit-
izen, it most include the summer cot-
tages, a large number of which are
always unoccupied at this time of
year. The statement of The Star is
ing quoted in many outside papers
and is not doing Goderich *ly good.

Protect um Squirrels.
It should be made very plain to the
boys of Ooderich that tbey must not
interfere with the squirrels in the
court house park. The little creatures
have become ver y tame and evidently
delight in the freedom they usually
enjoy ; but if they are to be chased or
otherwise annoyed by cruel or
thoughtless fess they will soon become
timid and fearful of showing them-
selves. We hope that the boys not
only will not molest the squirrels but
will protect them in every way. They
are one of the pleasant features of the
park, and it would be a pity to lose
them.
(Trouble In South Huron.
There is said to be considerable
1 excitement in the southern part of the
county over some expressions Nati to
have
been used by Rev. Mr. Smith cf
Hensel) at • recent meeting at Exeter
of the Ministerial Association of South
Hui on. Rev. D. W. Collins wrote last
week to The Exeter Advocate stating
that Mr. Smith bad made a shameful
and uncalled-for attack on the British
army, which, he (Smith) said. "goes
inti battle singing Tlpperarywhile the.
oerwao army goes into battle singing
psalms, praising God, and crying to
(loft for victory." Mr. Smith is charged
also with describing the British Army
chaplain• ate 'A hunch of boozers.'
The attention of Crown Attorney,
Seeger war drawn to the matter, and'
he referred it to High Constable
1Vbiteside, who io turn bas cotnmun-
icated with Col. Sherwood, superin-
tendent of Dominion Police, at Ottawa
not only with regard to Rev. Mr.
Smith's alleged statements but also
' with respect to the expressions of
'some other people in the southern part
of the county. in official and other
'circles Rev. Mr. `smith is tact looked
upon as possessing any traitorous
1 intent, hut is regarded rather as an
eccentric who makes foolish state-
' ments with the seeming desire to be
different" from other people.
