S. Martin, J. Grigg, Chairman Secretary —0 ---- Since the coming into force of the Canada. Temperance Act in Huron a thriving liquor business has been go- ing on in Mitchell. Tuesday almost a costtinuuous stream of automobiles came from Seaforth to town, the oc- cupants of which carried hand grips, in which they took back with them large supplies of liquor. Some of the men indulged pretty freely while here and an their return trip they made the air hideous with their yells. Wed- nesday was little better. If this thing is allowed to continue we may look : for a serious accident before long, .or they sun their cars at terrific speed, which not only endanger their own lives but respectable travellers are place( la thesame category. Con- stable,: should be on the alert and assist it putting an enol to such prac- tices.—Se says the Mitchell Advocate.

The showers of rain, Sunday night. and Monday afternoon were greatly appreciated. Coming after a dry per. iod of eighteen days they were very welcome. The pastures, roots, end corn, were beinning to show, the ef- fects of the dry spell: The necessity of keeping matches beyond the reach of children is dem- onstrated almost every day by the fa - tee "accidents in the days's news. If matches are only placed in safes that are high enough there can be no ding er. Aad it is. quite as, easy to place the holders well up ora the wall as to have them within, reach of todd- ling children. Tabulated returns of the results of the voting in the different constitu- encies in the Provincial elections in June gives the Whitney Government a popular majority of about 60,583. This is' something like 11,000 ,none than. in the general election of 1911. This inccrease is largely caused- by the fact thatthere were fewer ac- clamations - clanations this time. "On no accou;at bathe shortly after a hearty meal." This is a rule with which few people aa•e unfamiliar, yet. one that is more frequently lroken than observed. The fact that clfovn ings have been unusually numerous is Ontario recently, and that a number of them are reported to have been due to this cause, is sufficient proof of the need of stricter obser- vance of the rule.
