NOTE' AND COMMENTS
The Australian subsidy providing
fur an expenditure of $180,509 to pro-
vide for a steamship line from Van-
couver to Australia has been dropped
by the Dominion Government, owing
it is said to the Australians having
raised a tariff against Canadian goods.
The Dominion Government in the
estimates asks for $110,x,091.88 to
cover ordinary expenditure during
3-908, an increase of $3,000,000 over last
year. With $2x),000,000 of debt falling
due in addition 8148,000.000 will be re-
quired. Kincardine gets $7000 for building and 812:)0 for the har-
bor, Goderich $75,000 for harbor, St.
Marys $10,000 for public building and
Parkhill $5000 for public building.

PRESENTATiON.--Wednesday even-
ing while a session of the Bible Class
was being held In the Methodist church
the teacher, Mr. Holland, who has
been teaching school at Khiva the past
year and who has resigned the posi-
tion, was agreeably surprised by his
class with a beautiful mantle clock as
a token of the respect the class had to-
ward their teacher as well as a slight
remembrance of his many warm
friengs in the class. Elmer Gower read
the address which was as follows:
MR. HOLLAND:
Dsaa Faesso AND Tsicusa:— As you are about to
sever tour connection with the class, u e desire to
tender our sincere thanks to you for your valuable
work. It has been so helpful and profitable and so
freely given that we feel we cannot let you depart
from our midst without some tangible evidence of
our appreciation. You will be greatly missed in all
our church work and especially this •• Bible Class."
However, we feel onr Ions will be others' gain, and
trusting circumstances wid be such that at some
future time we may have the extreme pleasure of
having you in our midst again. will you kindle ac-
cept this small token as a slight remembrance of
your many friends. As you look into its face may
you be reminded of this place and evening,
Geo. Hirtzel then stepped forward
nd presented Mr. Holland with the
ock, the latter making a short but
.ling reply and thanked his class for
heir kindness toward him. A short
ogreun was given after the presenta-
)n which was as follows: Violin solo,

of merely re hashing approved party

this in parliament, and members of

WEDDING. BicLr s.—The home of
Wtn. Lanunie was the scene of a pret-
ty event on Wednesday, when Miss
Jane Laramie and Mr. Henry of St.
Marys were united in marriage, the
ceremony being performed in the af-
ternoon by Ret -.Toll and was witnessed
by only the immediate friends. The
bride was attired in a beautiful robe.
After the ceremony and congratula-
tion a appetitizing tea was served.
Miss Laramie has been a resident of
this place a good many years and her
pleasant manners have won her a
prominent place in social and church
circles and while her many friends,
troth old and young, will wish her
ever) happiness yet they will regret
that the change of relationship will
necessitate her removal from the soci-
ety of which she has acted so graceful
a part. She has been president of the
Junior League for eight years and has
been one of the best church workers
in town hence she will be much missed
and her place will he hard to fill. Mr.
Henry is a stranger in town but in
hearing away one of our choicest lad-
ies thus becomes a relation and we
congratulate him for gaining what
we lose. The gifts received by the
bride were simply rnagnjjicent. Mr.
and Mrs. Henry left the same day for
St. Marys, where the groom has a
beautiful home and where they start
life together under the most favorable
circumstances and with the best wish-
es of a large circle of friends.

This publication has made great
strides under the new management,
The December number consists of
thirty-six pages of bright, interesting

special features of this issue, which is

portraits of the leaders of the evangel-
ical denominations, and "Messages
from 1Vouhen," with portraits of lead-
ing Canadian women workers. A re-
production of "Eventide," ,1. W. L.
Forstri's latest painting, is well worth
framing. Judge Routheir gives a his-
tory of the writing of the Chant
National and this is accompanied by a
new arrangement of Leveller's piece
by Mr. Edward Broome, of the Toron-
