A STRANGE FLOWER
A visit to the garden of Mrs. Hears
Barker, Palmerston street, one day re-
reeeatly, was awarded by the sight of a
botanical curiosity which, so far
as The Signal knows, la new to Gode
rich. This was the strange blossom
of the "Jewel" cactus -4 five -petalled
affair in the centre of welch was a
perfect ring, and the stamens and other
atrttons et she flower all repeated in
quintuple. The Gower was quite flat,
and Its shape and texture were trach
that the awl observer might think
it had been cot out of leather or card-
board, 1n the form of a Jewel, and at-
tached to the piant.
This queer flower ie not by any
mesas . the sole special attraction of
the Barker garden. The goldteote Some

SOME ARE DISAPPOINTED
Wesley Thompson's venture into the
fsbdesline business lasted for jest
two tripe. It was then brought to au
abrupt end. After being out of work
for some time, Thompson. a White-
church man, began bis fish business.
Everythlne went well until, on his
second trip, ha drove from the lane
of a West Wawanesb farmbouse plumb
into the aide of a truck driven by
Harvey Eckert, of Luckaow. Choice
trout, whitefish and perch were scat
tered far and wide over the dusty coun-
try road end the Ash truck was badly
damaged. As if that were trot enough,
Thompson was found guilty of reck-
less driving, although he paraded not
guilty before Magistrate Reid on Sat-
urday, and was assessed $10 and thole
or ten days. He was given a week to
nae re money, but -was- aeon con-
vinced that tbp necessary funds were
not use: obtainable, and so presented
himself at tbe jaU on Tuesday and de-
manded admittance. His only proof
that be was eligible for admittance was
the slip of paper bearing the amount
d court costs and the sinister words,
"In detente ten days In tall." Teromp
son was admitted on the strength of
this, and then Sheriff Reynolds west
to the Magistrate's office for the neces-
sary naam i tment pipers.

as a symbol of man's devotion to God
and as a means of engaging in that
worship which is a necessity of bateau

"Remember in these days of grow-
ing neglect," said the Archdeacon,
"that worship is a necessity of the

His divine love and grace there would

He exhorted the congregation to form
early habits of worship In the child-
ren, who need careful training, to teach
honesty, faith, loyalty and love. Tho
church le the only Institution respon-
sible for this. "This church with Its
beautiful memorial windows is an evi-
dence of the ' -ve and loyalty of past
and present congregations."
"The memories and associations of
this place will guide and bless you.
The church stands for the grace of
our Lord Jesus Christ, and is an as-

"Just when we need Him moat He

said, "and express to you as your
