of this appeal for the "Y" work among

tion at the court house neat Wednesday at

Look Out for Kincardine.
The Kincardine Review takes a glance
down this way and says: Mr. J. t. Fell,
Goderich, offered a tive-dollar bill for the
best slogan to be adopted in boosting
Greater Goderich in the campaign that
has been going on with an eye to the en-
largement and advancement of the old
circular town. Over one hundred head-
liners submitted their ideas. Mia Marion
Inglis. of Goderich, was the winner. The
slogan suggested was "Huron's Golden
Gate" and seems very appropriate from
the location as a gateway for. the lake
traffic between the East and West. We
are not envious of our friends to the
south, and admire the progressive spirit
they are displaying in the endeavor to
advance their town, but we would suggest
that they keep up their "boost." as Kincar-
dine will show the world when the war is
over, and our harbor complete, a much
shorter haul than Godench can offer.
County Council Next Week.
The cArnty council will rneet next
Tuesday for the regular June session.
Sorra of the items of business will be the
appointment of a caretaker of the court
house and registry office, the selection of
a Goderich Collegiate Institute trustee to
succeed Mr. W. L. Eliot. who has re-
moved to London, and the reception of a
deputation in behalf of the Y. M. C. A
work among the soldiers.
A deputation from the Middkxx
county council will be here on Tuesday to
discuss some road question with the Hur-
on council and the meeting for this pur-
pose will oe held in the council chamber
at 8 o'clock in the evening.
A brass tablet is to be placed in the
court house as a memorial to the late
Dr. W. J. R. Homes. county treasurer,
and if the tablet is received in time there
will be an unveiling ceremony during the
session of the council.

A Clever Performance.
Longfellow could take a worthless piece

$65.000.
That's genius.
There are some men who can write a

A splendid audience greeted the Sea -
forth amateur players at Victoria Opera
House on Friday evening last, when they
presented the dramatized ' version of the
well-known story "Within the Law." un-
der the auspices of the Maple Leaf Chap-
ter. 1. 0. D. E. Seaforth has a reputation
for clever people, and it was well sustained
on this occasion. The performance was
carried out with a precision and finish
that would do credit to a high-class pro-
fessional company, and the audience fol-
lowed the development of the story with
rapt attention. Mrs. R. Murless-Jones
as the heroge, Mary Turner; Mr. K. J•
Francis as Joe Garsgn, the professional
crook; Mr. G. W. Israel as Dick Gilder,
eon of the department store proprietor;
Miss Evelyn Greig as Aggie Lynch. the
heroine's girl friend in her career of adven-
ture —these were some of the outstanding
characters in the play; but all performed
their parts with marked ability. it is hoped
the company will come to Goderich again
at some future time. and a bumper :hove
will be assured. The proceeds of the per-
formance were 8205.
An Anonymous Letter.
Someone signing himself (or herself)
"A Lover of All Dimb Animals and
Birds" writes to The Signal stating that
cruelty to animals is being practised in
this town and asking if there is a Humane
Society. Anonymous letters are not en-
titled to much respect. but we shall de-
part from our timid rule to the extent of
stating -that[ alis ranter. of this lettter
really knows of Qlses pf cruelty such as
are mentioned in the latter it is his (or
her) duty. not to write an anonymous
letter to the newspaper. but to inform
the members Qt the police force and give
the necessary particulars so that proper
action may be taken by the authorities
Why should the writer of this letter stand
by and ask others to do what he (or she)
apparently is unwilling to do for the de-
fence of dumb creatures? "A Lover of
All Dumb Animals and Birds" has just
the same responsibility for the protection
of defenceless creatures as anybody else
and should not try to get rid of that re-
sponsibihtp by asking. Where is the
Humane Society?
The United States can take an ounce
and a -quarter of gold and make it worth
twenty dollars.
That's money.
A mechanic can take material worth 85
and make it into watchsprings worth
11,000.
That's skill.
A fisherman can set his net and lift them
the next day and find them full of sticks
and slime.
That's leherrnan's luck.
There's a man in Paris who can take a
fifty -cent piece of canvas, paint a picture
on it and make it worth $10,000.
That 's art.
A merchant can take an article costing
seventy-five cents and sell it for one
dollar.
That's business.
A man can buy a suit for $10 or $15,
but prefers paying 520 or $25 for it.
That's foolishness.
There are people who will tell you that
other clothing stores are selling as cheap
as ROBINS.
That's nerve.

licious ice cream in bulk or bricks for all
