The Ladies' Aid of Grace church, Stara, purpose holding a strawberry festival in klibbert Town Hall, on the evening of Tuesday, June 26, and are working up an excellent program. We regret to hear of the serious i11- ness,caused from astroke,of Mrs. Wm. Levett of Parkhill, mother of W. A. Levett of town. Mr. and Mrs, Levett. visited the patient on Sunday. A number from here took in the Farmers' and Teachers' excursion to Guelph on Friday last. The ;trip was very enjoyable and those attending found much of interest at the Model Farm and the McDonald Institute. The Ladies' Aid Society of Cavan Presbyterian church will hold a lawn social on the grounds of Mr. E. Chris- tie, on Tuesday evening, June:26.. Ad- mission 15 cents. A cordial invitation is extended to all. Band in attendance. Owing to ill health Mr. W.J. Hawk- shaw, who has been conducting the hotel at Yellow Grass, Sask., has been forced to give up business. In conse- quence Mrs.Hawkshaw and daughter, Miss Jean,will return to Ontario to re- side in future. The Cemetery Committee desires to thank the estate of the late Charles Perkins for the donation of $100 to- ward the perpetual fund of the cemet- ery. Mr. Perkins provided for this in his will. This provides for the perpet- ual care of the lot in which deceased was buried. On Sunday morning next there will be a special service in the Trivitt Mem- orial church at eleven o'clock. At this service the Rev. F.G. Newton of Park- hill will address the children of the Sunday School. In the evening the Rev: R. J. M. Perkins will preach his farewell sermon. Miss Enema Young, another of Exe- ter's former residents, was a few days ago married at Dauphin, Man., to Mr. G. A. Wyness, of the same place. It will be remembered that Miss Young was for several years a member of the Trivitt Memorial church choir and during her stay here made many warm Mende who will extend well wishes for her future happiness and prosper- ity. The funeral of the late John C. Gould took place on Wednesday of last week to Mount Pleasant cemetery, London. Rev.Lansley of Dundas Cent- re Methodist church and Rev. Daniels of Colborne street church officiated. The late Mr. Gould was a member of the latter church but for some time had attended the former. The floral tri- bute from relatives and friends were numerous and beautiful. Shortly after noon on Monday No. 6 Company of Exeter district, 33rd (Hur- on) Battalion, left by special train for Carling's Heights at London under the command of Capt. Rance, Lieut. W.J. Heaman and Ser -Major Hector for a two weeks' camp. The company con- sisted of twenty-eight members. They are a particularly bright and intelli- gent lot ofyolun teers and will,un doubt- edly, be a credit to the battalion. Mr. J. A. Stewart has this week commenced preparations for the erec- tion of an addition to his already large general store. The addition will be 25 by 50 feet at the rear of the south. part of the present building. When finished the store will be second to none in any town in Ontario. Increas- ing business necessitates this change. Mr. Stewart is one of the most progres- sive merchants of Western Ontario and it is a pleasure to note that his energet- ic methods and business ability are meeting with the success that they de- serve. Tee Suanancr Girls' Dress. The '06 Summer girls will be frocked i nfrills and furbelows deiighfully fem- inine, writes Helen Berkely-Lloyd in The Delineator for July. From para- sol to boot tip, curves, dainty touches, and artistic color effects will disting- uish everything they wear. Their eld- ers, too, make a generous use of color. They are permitting it to appear in their tweed frotteurs and motor coats, and their afternoon and dinner gowns of light, silken fabrics, are as often of the new mauve -blue and the warm American Beauty shades as of white or the always charming pastel tints. Among the little accessories that the Summer girl is wearing, are bracelets of black velvet held with jewelled buck- les, and wisps of tulle twisted about the upper arra and the wrist, tied in fluffy bows. Arm or glove garters of Isatin ribbon, shirred over elastic and edged with frills of lace and ribbon are quite new, and as practical as they are ornamental.

Mrs. Bax- ter was formerly Miss Hodgins of Bid- dulph township. The recent marriage near Grand Bend of James Wilson and Miss Grat- ton, daughter of Mr. Louis Gratton, all of the Bee Line, Stephen, has, it is alleged, been declared null and voict owing to the young lady being under age.

Mr. Thomas Smale of Elimville who usually has early vegetables weeks in advance of the average gardener brought in a surprising early bunch of stuff Wednesday morning, comprising potatoes, peas and 'strawberries of ex- cellent quality and maturity. Mr. Smale takes the pasty for early vege- tables. At this time of the year people are naturally discussing in their minds the question, where shall we buy our goods? As our answer to this impor- tant problem we refer them to the ad- vertising columns in this issue. In our columns will be found proclama- tions from all the principal business hous es in the town. Never trade with a man who does not advertise, if you want nice, fresh, clean goods at reasonable prices. Find a man who does not advertise, and you will find a man who is rusty and old-fashioned as the goods which he is trying to sell. The doings of some of the boys of town will necessitate action shortly that will land. them behind the bars if their nefarious practices are not dis- continued. Several of the got to- gether Saturday night and after ac- quiring a liberal supply of white pep- per started down Main street, throw - it in the eyes of every horse standing on the thoroughfare and also every dog they could get near, thus causing no little distress and suffering to the poor, unfortunate brutes along their path. Not satisfied with this again on Monday night as Miss Lily May Ache- son was passing the Molsons Bank she was accosted in a similar manner. She was almost blinded for the time being, but managed under great difficulty to reach her home when it was found necessary to procure the services of a physician. That an end should be put to this kind of thing goes without say- ing and the law authorities will be neglecting their duties if they do not take action. Sovereign Bank Shares.

Public Meeting, At an informal meeting of the coun- cil Friday evening it was decided to call a public meeting of citizens at `the Town Hall on Friday evening nertfor the purpose of discussing the proposed loan of $10000 for fifteen years to estab- lish a canning factory in town. This is a matter of vital interest to the town and arepresentive meeting is earnestly desired. Mr. Edgecombe, a practical canning man, and others will address the meeting. Country people are in- vited to he present also, Pleasant Recognitions. The home of Mrs. Geo. H. Bissett was the scene of a very pleasant gath- ering of young folks on Thursday night last, the occasion being the re- cognition iu a very happy manner of one of their number, .Miss Lille How- ard, by presenting her, prior to her marriage, with a "china shower" com- prising many articles of use and beau- , ty. The evening was pleasantly spent! in harmless amusement, after which luncheon was served.—A similar gath- ering took place at the home of Mr. W. J. Statham on Monday evening at which Miss Ada M. Horne3, prior tp ber marriage, was presented with 'a "kitchen shower." This also compris- ed many articles of every day use in a home. These kindly remembrances could not have been more worthily bestowed. Death of Mrs. liartnoll. Death bas claimed another of our old and most respected residents, this tinae removing from earth Mary Ann llern, beloved wife .of Thomas Ilartnoli, who passed to her reward on Monday last. For several years Mrs. Heetnrel has been in very poor health, the com- mencement of which was caused by a stroke of peralysis a+hetet seven years ago, froro which she never recovered.

Fisk Retires , After over thirty years of continuous active business life in Exeter, Mr. E. H. Fish, tonsorial artist, has decided to retire for a time at least and on Mon- day sold his building and business to Mr. Ed. Willis. Mr, Fish came to Ex- eter about two months before the open- ing of the London Huron & Bruce rail- way, which took place in January,1870 and since that time has successfully carried on a barbering business. He has been rather ill of late and a good rest, which he has well earned,will,un- doubtedly, soon restore him to his us- ual good health. He has no intention at present of leaving town and will oc- cupy bis present residence for two months. Mr.Willis took possession of the shop on Tuesday morning. Notes Educational. Six pair of feet, assorted sizes slipped modestly under the table whilst their proud owners gathered round the lit- tle table in the south east corner of the Public Library on Monday night and there in the dull glare of the new elec- tric service thoughtfully listened to the recital of the last month's doings. What they said, they had said and no change in the Secretary's notes were required. The business on hand was soon ender discussion. The Grounds and Sanitary committee reported a further cleaning of the well and trou- ble there ended. Oae of the important subjects that arose for consideration was the salary for 1906-7 which now stands as follows: L. C. Fleming,Prin- cipal, $975; Miss Dorrington, first as- sistant in the H. S. Department, 8600; Miss Chidley, second assistant, $525; Miss Vosper first assistant in the Pub- lic school, $400; Miss McCallum $350; Miss Walrond $375; Miss Martin $300; and Miss Winona Howard $300.. The two last are aspirants for educational favor in Exeter. We believe they will try to do their dutyand wish themwell. An account rendered by the Secretary for school supplies. stamps, telegrams, telephone messages and membership fees in the Educational Association of Ontario, amounting to $18.87, was, on motion of R. N. Rowe and H. Huston, ordered to be paid. W. J. Carling then applied the wet blanket and the bea- con lights of our educational way im- mediately winked and went out. J. Grigg, Secretary.
