The president. William Green, 1* addressing the meeting, gave credit for this good result to the fine co-opera- tion which existed among the (dicers and directors of the Society. Mr. Green went on to speak of the visit of J. A. Carroll, Provincial super- intendent of fairs. to the Ooderlch Ex- hibition last fall. Mr. Carroll was well pleased with the equipment and with the exhibition generally, tmt •• a few suggestions for improvement. One was that a show ring be provided for the judging of live stock, prefer- ably opposite the grandstand, with a load speaker for announcements to the spectators. Another was that some protection be provided for the baking exhibits. Mr. Green sold that having given two years to the office of president be desired to retire, but hs would be heartily behind whoever might he chosen for the position. He thanked all who had co-operated In the work, the municipalities for their grants, and everyone who bad given assistance in any way. The Society was now In good shape. be said, to go ahead for another year. Reports from chairmen of the var- ious anlous committees were then called for, and in response several of the chair- men gave brief oral reports of the operations of last year to their several departments. The question of holding a nes crop competition this year was tinctured and was referred to the new board of directors. l!I'OL lookout here for hockey sticks that Boom of tbe jua- easa broken into sight llitt- ain believed to bottom panel 10 the team's to admit a was gained to door. 1.

In the face d Liberal de- • cords that he withdraw the statement, Dr. Manioc stoutly refused to do so. seem he had not compared Mr. King b tihsptmnn.

WINTER =NZ DOS , BIN GETS TES OALL As a favorite mode of travel during the summer months the automobile without a doubt is the leader, but it bids fair to be almost eliminated In winter, according to observations inar this pt of the country, especially during stretcbes of very bad weather. 1t is admitted, ho, that cutters and sleighs, when the meow is deep, are preferable In place of autos for both romantic and practical reasons.

A MUSICAL TERM Those attending the concert In the parish hall of 8t.

The musical evening was given un- der the auspices of the choir of St. George's church.
