J. Snell 0000100000-1 The Cemetery. The Exeter cemetery is naturally one of the finest to be found iu the district, its location on a beautiful mound adding to its attractiveness. But all this beauty is surmounted when one enters the grounds and finds the walks, plots, and the place generally over -run with grass and weeds. It is a sorry sight, especially to those who have the remains of dear friends interred there. Some of the lots are nicely kept, free from weeds or grass, and ornamented with fragrant flowers, while many sur- rounding are allowed to remain wild, and destroy the beauty of others Why can- not this order of things be changed, and the grounds made to correspond with their surroundings ? We would suggest that the caretaker be engaged to look after each lot and be paid 25 cents per year by each holder of a plot for so doing. There are none who would not be willing to pay this sum annually, and if the work be done as it should be for this cum, our cemetery take on a now and very much beautified mantle. It would require that every lot be looked after ; one k ee.eaand' another there wn1,1,1 . ,n ice. Let the directors award -in this matter.

A grand time is anticipated. A. granite monument was erected in the Exeter cemetery on Friday last by Mra. Jory in memory of her late departed hus- band, Mr. Simon Jory. It i.a among the fineat on the grounds. The fall of rain for the twelve hours from midnight Thursday till noon Friday was the heaviest recorded ,here for many years As measured, the extraordinary quantity of 3.45 inches fell during the twelve hours. The rumor that has got abroad that Snell Bros. & Co. had sold their butcher business to Mr. John Manning •,is' foanda- tionless. The business is still owned by the old firm, Mr. Manning havinggivenup his intentions of buying. Those people wno are situated where the land is hilly and rolling should appreciate their locality. It is the other way in other places. Away down in the county of Kent, the Raleigh Plains are covered with water—probably 4,000 acres are flooded and crops destroyed to the extent of $75,- 000. The act passed at the recent session of the Ontario Legislature to prohibit the sale of tobacco, cigars or cigarettes to per- sons under 18 years of age is now in opera- tion. The penalty for selling or giving to such persona is not less than $10 nor more than $50. Any person actually or appar- ently under 18 years found using cigars, cigarettes or tobacco on the streets or in any public place is liable to a fine of 81 to $5 for each offence. The anniversary services of the Kirkton Presbyterian church will be held on the 19th and 20th inst. On Sunday at 11 a.m. and 7 p.m. sermons will be preached by Rev. Hector McQuariie, Moderator of the Synod of Hamilton and London. On Monday the annual picnic will be held in Wiseman's Grove. Besides the usual amusements,etc.,addressea will be deliver- ed by Revs. Messrs.McQuarrie,McDonagh, of Exeter; Grant sad Cosgrove, of St. Marys; Scott of Cromarty; and neighbor- ing ministers. A grand time is expected. The "Eranciatown Larks,"which is com- posed of mere boys, some time ago issued a challenge to the Bethesda foot ball club, which it was expected was also boys, and on Tuesday visited Bethesda to knock shins. They drove there only to find that they had to drive a mile farther. Here they met their opponents, strong, burly men with beards, all togged. out in the manner of professionals, with a deter- mination on their face either to win the game or kill the little fellows. After some delay the ball was faced, but the evening being late, only one half hour could be played, whioh resulted in favor of the mon by 1 to 0.—Colt, Sisyole Club. A meeting was held in the town hall on Friday evening last for the purpose of or- ganising a bicycle club. There was a fair attendance and much interest was taken in the meeting. The preliminaries settled the election of officers took place, as fol- lows; Dr. Lutz, Pres.; N. D. Hnrdon, Vice -Pres.; A. J. McTavish, Capt.; Frank Wood, Lieut.; W. Browning, Sec'y; Ed, Carley, Treas.; Frank H, Lutz, Bugler. Thele is already a membership of 12, with more to follow. The fee is 81. The Agricultural Works, The Verity Agricultural Works still hangs in the balance as to whether it shall be moved to Brantford or remain in Exeter. The offer by Exeter of $10,000 in cash,froe switch, exemption from taxation, etc., was favorably considered by the oth:r rnem- hers of the firm of the Verity Plow Works Co., and if Brantford,the seemingly objec- tive point, will not do what is asked of them, which is almost equal to our offer, the works will remain in Exeter and be doubled. The matter has not as yet been decided by Brantford, there being consider- able objection,but will in a dew days. The partnership papers have been sicned by the %reritys, and the Co. formed. The location is the finale. Messrs. Verity & Sons yesterday sent an additional offer of $5,000 to the Mas- sey -Harris Co.'o supplement the $10,000 offer already made to allow the manufac- ture of the plows in Exeter. They have hope of the offer being accepted. Personals.

The History of the Year, The success of periodicals—daily, week- ly, and monthly—which treat with current history, proves that Canadian people want history tingling with the air of action. Such a work is "The History of the Year 1S91"—a year full of striking events the world over The author has written this book for a Canadian audience and very properly gives prominence to Canadian affairs. It is a history of the times and affairs in which you are personally interest- ed. 11 would take too much of our space to give even a lair review of this valuable work, and we must therefore; confine our- selves to a mere enumeration of some of its features.

The Agricultural grounds were rented last Saturday to Mr.J.Haw't d':aw There appears to have been some misunderstand- ing in the matter. The committee author- ised to rent the grounds had received several offers for the same, but instead of putting the grounds up for competition, saw fit to rent them to Mr. Hawkshaw privately. Mr. Bawden, who also wished to rent the grounds, ',protested vigorously against this proceeding, and only yielded on the anderstanding that the grounds should be thrown open for games and sports and pleasure driving and for the use and pleasure of the general public. a suitable gate to be placed so that the public might pass in and out at their pleasure. The rental paid is 880. A correspondent calls attention to the heed of a cross road or belt line by the 0. P.
