We cannot understand anyone having any desire to live outside of good old Huron. WHAT PICNIC ORATORS OVERLOOK. Ono thing that Tura leaders seem to overlook ix . discussing the trek to the cities, is the depopulation or killing */ the business of the smell towns. For that condition the blame attaches to a laxge extent to rural residents. They allowed the pig mail order concerns to put many merchants in the small towns Out Ot busionas, and unless bus- iness can receive, the small town is for- ever a thing of the past. Every small town, and country store. was a com- munity centre where, the big affairs of the elation. were discussed, intelli- gently every slight, and eommunity leaders have not found a substitute, for it, Maurice Hervey got complete matric- ulation i,. bis recent exams., and not Partial ;as gnawed. in. the report as Published some little time ago. We congratulate hine on his success. Rev. brt A. B. Melbrum of 'Cleve- land ,Ohio, will occupy the pulpit of -Thames Road Presbyterian Church on Sunday next. The Dr. is an Us - borne Old Boy and, is now one of America's most able and eloquent peeachers, Doubtless many of his old friends will avail themselves the. Priv- ilege of hearing the Dr. on. Sunday.

Port Arthur is a ciiiy of pretty fair proportions and boasts of the larg- est consolidated grain elevator in the world, that .of the :Canadian Northern Systems, with a capacity of 9,500,000 bushels. The city baa also the most moder,a coal docks on the Canadian Great Likes. These docks .., can die - charge at the rate tof 1000 tons an hour and load considerably faster. We leave the steamer here for Kak- bea•a Falls by speciel dra.int These falls are said to be higher than Niag- ara Falls. One p1 the unusual sights at the Falls is the color of the water and spray. The river runs through iron ore deposits and as a conse- quence the water is tinted adeep am- ber. While we are at the Falls the ship moves to Fort William, aheee miles across the harbor, discharging and loading freight at various docks. Our first impressions of Fort Wil- liam are anything but favorable; view- ed from the boat, or as we enter the eity, and the most. of us would term it "shacktowite” This part of the city is occupied by foreign element and is very unkempt and no way at- tractive.

Late, in the afternoon, we board the boat again and pass out on, our way to Teuluth, arriving these about 9.30 a. m. We make the city of Duluth our home for the ,next few days. It is rightly called, "The ,Naples of the North." It is pieuate,d otl *be side of a 600 -.foot hill and overlooks a 49- 41 mile. water front. Aside from the im- mensity of Duluth's business and in- dustrial activities eye thing that wjll linger permanently en your-mentory of Duluth, is the scenee beaturty. It has five large and 29 small parks and pub- lic playgrounds. It has also develop- ed a system of boulevards that is equal to anythhsg in America, or abroad. - While in Duluth we met our old friend, Mr. Ent H. Gielley, an Exeter Old Boy, who has been a resident of that city for many yeaxs, and we 'spent a few- hours very pleasantly, together.
