Liberal standard, at the next elec-
tion for theeDominion parliament,
at a largely attended convention in
Hensel/ on. Wednesday afternoon,
All sections of the riding were well
represented and the hall was packed
The President, Dr. Shaw, of Clinton,,
occupied the chair. Ten names were
placed in nomination and each per-
son was allowed ten minutes to ad-
dress the convention. All withdrew
With the exception of Owen Geiger,
of Hensel' and Thos, McMillan,.' of
Tuckersmith, and on a vote being
taken the choice fell to Mr, McMil-
lan, Mr. Geiger moving to make the
nomination unanimous.
The ndil e ` placed in nomination
were 0. Geiger, T. McMillan, Dr. R.
R. Ross, J. M. Govenlock and W, H.
Golding,' of Seaforth; D. F. Mc-
Gregor, Tuckersmith, H. Smith, Hay
R. G, Seldon, Exeter; Dr. Shaw,
,Clinton and Jas. Watson, Seaforth.
Mr. McMillan gave a short addrees
thanking those present for the honor
that had again been conferred on
him to carry the Liberal standard
in South Huron. He stated that the
gathering was one of the largest and
one of the most enthusiastic that the
Liberals have held in many years
and augured well for success at the
next
electron.
Among the speakers were the
Hon. Nelson Parliament, who advis-
ed the delegates to carry the en-
thusiasm of the convention back to
their various divisions; and 'Mrs.
Beaton of Toronto, who appealed to
the lady voters, of whom there was
a goodly number present.
The principal speaker Was the
Hon. Duncan Marshall, Liberal or-
ganizer, who delivered an address
that was punctuated with applause.
He spoke of the cost of the war
which he said the Conservatives had
not tried to meet during war times.
He , dealt with agricultural con di -
tions, which he said, was the basic
industry of Canada. In 1921 few
farmers were making money, Pric-
es , received for. Western cattle
wouldn't pay the freight. Since the
Liberal government came into power
the ei 'bargo on Canadian cattle to
Great Britain has been lifted, large-
ly due to the efforts of the Prime
Minister. ' Freight rates on cattle
and ocean rates have been largely
reduced. Markets' must be found
for our excess farm products or agri-
culture. 'suffers, • and if agriculture
suffers it effects industry- Farming
and industry at the present time are
picking up.
Several resolutions were passed

sers for the Liberal leaders and
e singing, of the National Anthem.
willing to take a "stall" at him.
The sale' proceeded- and the horse
was knocked down to Frank, the
wily auctioneer. It was now that
the real fun began. An attempt
was made to halter him, but he did
not take kindly to the process, and
oh, how that horse did. kick, with
both heels out for business every
time. Talk about the Kentucky
mule he could not produce a shadow
beside this fellow, and had he been
in front of a mill -wheel instead of
where he was he would have pump-
ed enough water out of the river to
supply our water works system for
thirty days or more. , He kicked
himself down, got up again, took a
breathing spell and started afresh.
He took a slam at an old sow and
pretty near put her to sleep, wreck-
ed a pig pen of large dimensions;
kicked a broom out of .the hands of
Mr. H. Elwoi'thy and it' has not
been seen since; lambasted a bar-
rel and it said that 'st'aves, splinters
and hoops. are hourly falling yet
then he ran afoul an old mare in a
stall, her head and part of her body
going through a window. After
this they succeeded in getting his
horseship roped, but all the kick
was not of him yet and the hangers-
on dropped, off like a lot of ten-
pins. Then the horse started north-
ward. He jumped fifteen; fences,
nd Frank Taylor vouches for the
ct that lie went over as many
oases in his course as he did fens-
, and he finally landed in Russell
edden's flats on the river, where
spent a couple of nights when he
out for parts unknown. Frank
ys he is still in the horse business
rid says he will give a good deal of
tale" for the mate to this horse.

But Jesus loved Her more,

So, with farewells unspoken
She calmly entered t'Home."
