"Ou, of every 81000 damage by lightning to buildings in Ontario, $999 would have been saved by a proper use of lightning rods,” was the inter- esting statement made by Prof. W. H. Day of the O. A. C., Guelph, recently in a lecture on. "The Truth About Lightning Rods," The efficiency of rods in Ontario is 943 per cent. Mr. Albert Penwarden told us on Saturday that he saw a robin near the home of Mr, John. Pedler, when driv- ing into town that day. The bird was as lively as one could be and did not seem to mind the cold, and that morning' was the coldest of the win- ter A ` robin at Christmas in this country is an unusual thing. Almost every trade and profession, has its newspaper or journal looking after its special interests. There are several farm papers, but only one that can truly be called The Farmer's Bus- iness Paper. That paper is the Week- ly Sun. Every farmer should sub- scribe for The Sun; It will be found very helpful and pay for itself many time' over. TO EXAMINE LIQUOR. -Samples of liquor taken. in Western Ontario hotels will be analyzed at the Insti- tute of Public Health in London in future if negotiations now under way with. the authorities at Toronto are successful. Inspector Galpin of Lon- don is strong for the idea and be- lieves more frequent tests would be made if analyzed in London instead of in Toronto. Delay would also be reduced. EDITOR BLAI4IES HOUSEWIFE. - James Livingstone of the Grimsby In- dependent sizes up things in this way The foolishness or the bad manage- ment of the housewife has had a great deal to do with -the rise in the cost of living. As, for instance, former- ly the housewife was content with good, .old-fashioned oatmeal, for the. making of the porridge for herself and family This • oatmeal cost four or five cents a pound, while to -day the same housewife is buying all the high- faluting, high-priced breakfast foods (that she can ,get hold • of; at twenty- five cents a pound. Instead of the boys and girls of to -day eating good, health -giving, strength-giving,.unger- satisfying oatmeal porridge for break- fast, they are eating a lot of dried- up crisp flaked, pasteurized, airified petrified ossified remains of once -use ful, grain but now without either strength' or substance, which has been bought by their mothers under the name of breakfast foods and sold by the groceryman at about twenty-five cents a pound, SURPLICED CHOIR. -The Choir of the Trivitt Memorial Church ap peared for the first time in their new vestments on Christmas morning. The vestments consist of the regular cas- sock, and surplice and in addition the ladies wear the conventional college cap. The new door from the south transept into the vestry admits of a processional and recessional hymn. The choir numbers twenty-eight, in- cluding, the n-cluding'the organist, and the com- ments the congregation upon the e reverent rendition of the services were very favorable, On Sunday ev- ening the musical service was very fine, as it included the Magnificat and the Nunc Dimittisanthemsetting in se rn Mr Allen, recently. out from Ireland,. e and who possesses a tenor voice of rare power and sweetness, ably as- sisted the occasions. The new vest- ments are a gift from Mr. C. H. Sanders the Rector's Warden, and werc given with a view of ad o g reverence and devotion in the regular. services of the church. On Christmas morning the Rector. gracefully accept- ed the gift and on behalf of the con- gregation ongregation thanked the donor for this very subst litsal gift. The musical services of Sunday evening will be le -- pea -tea e-peated next Shuday evening, on the occasion of the first Sunday of the new year, and the sermon will be ap- propriate to the occasion, INSTALLATION.
