Rev. Holtueo of Lucan address( d
the Main street League Tuesday even-

We are pleased to see so many of
our citizens taking pride in their
homes. The word '.bombe," next to
that of "mother." is the greatest ever
uttered by human tongue. What a
refuge the home is when the darkness
gathers! How glad one is to get a
glimpse of home when time and space
have separated hits from it if even but
for a brief period! There seems to be
a good natured rivalry here in an
effort to make `but- borne" look a
little neater and thus he the more in-
viting to the occupants than all others.
Such rivalry is certainly pardonable.
This is the reason of the year when
Much may be done toward making the
exterior• of the house bright and beau-
tiful as well the interior.
It wasn't a Missouri editor but a
printer's devil who was going through
his first experience on "making up"
forms. The paper was late and the
boy got the galleys mixed. The fleet
part of the obituary notice of a pecu-
nious citizen had been dumped in the
forms, and the next handful of type
came off of a galley describing a recent
tire. It read like this: "The pall
bearers lowered the body to the grave
and as It was consigned to the flames
there were few if any regrets, for the
old wreck bad been an eyesore to the
town for years. Of course there was
individual loss. but that was fully cov.
ered by insurance." Tho widow thinks
the editor wrote the obituary that
way because the lamented partner of
her joys and Borrows owed him five
years' subscription.
In another column will be found an
account of the Anti -Barroom League
meeting at Hensel) on Monday. At
this meeting according to the corres-
pondent it was stated that there are
fourteen. licensed hotels in Stephen
Township. This is certainly not cor-
rect as there are but nine: Dashwood 1,
Crediton 2, Grand Bend 1, Shipka 1,
Khiva 1, Mount Carmel 1, Corbett 1,
Centralia 1, Although there are two
hotels at Grand Bend one is in Bosan-
quet Township, Latnbton County, and
we believe is the only hotel in the
township. Then apparently the four
hotels in Exeter were counted in. This
should not be done as Exeter is not
a part of Stephen township. The
number of hotels in Stephen is large
enough as it is without its being made
to appear larger.
lick's Forecasts for April.
A Reactionary Storm Pet iod is cen-
tral on the lltb, 12th and 13th. This
period embraces the Moon on the cel-
estial equator on the Ilth, and new
Moon on the 12th. These facts lead us
to believe that storm conditions will
be prolonged front the preceding per-
iod, and that a marked crisis of April
storms will fall on and touching the
lith and 12th. A very low reading of
the barometer at this time will presage
violence and danger. Vicious electri-
cal storms with hail, will visit many
sections during the passage of these
storm centres from west to east. Tak-
ing the 12th as the centre of a period
of five days, we may reasonably look
for reports of seismic disturbances
from various parts of the globe.
A Marked Success.
. This is what the Berlin Telegraph
relays about Green's High ('lass Moving
�'fcturee. "The success scored by
Pref. Green's Moving Pictures at the
Berlin Opera House on Saturday after-
ternoon and evening must have been
gratifying to the professor. He came
highly recommended and he thorough.
ly pleased the crowded house be drew.
The pictures shown were clear and dis-
tinct, and with none of that irritable
flicker
flicker which goes with so many
Ma-
chines. The picturespresented showed
the professor's thorough acqunintence
with the wants of the public. His var-
ied selection catered to all tastes, in-
structive, sensational, humorous and
even wonderful. is swayed from the
imaginative to the conunon place, from
the pathos to laughter. The assertion
of the professor that you can see noth-
' 1 better if (11 visit London, Paris or
