Association of South Huron, as con-
stituted for both Dominion and Prov-
incial purposes, will be held in Dixon's

An order -in -council bas been approv-
ed of by the Lieutenant -Governor of

Minister of Public Works, providing
that residents of the Province be pro-
hibited from fishing in any Provincial

The West Huron Teacher's Associa-
tion hold their annual Institute meet-
ing in Goderich, May 21st and 22nd.
This promises to be one of the best in
the history of the Association as in
addition to a large number of live top-
ics to be discussed by members of the
Association, Dr. Goggin of Toronto
is to be present and deliver tbree ad-
dresses.
The funeral of the late Mrs. Edward
Hunt took place to the Seaforth ceme-
tery on Friday last, the service being
conducted at the home of Mr. Irwin
Armstrong at 10 a. in. and the remains
being taken to Seaforth by carriage.
A large number of sympathizing
friends were present at the service
which was conducted by Rev. D. W.
Collins of the Trivitt Memorial church.
A mean contemptible dog poisoner
is at work again in Exeter. Period-
ically some brainless individual deve-
lops a maina for poisoning dogs and it
is regrettable that the offender has
not been caught before this. The
poison has been found to be strychnine
and it is known that only one person
has bought this poison in town in sev-
eral months. On Friday three dopes
died, Dr. Browning's "Pat", S. Fitton's
hound "Dick" and T. Hawkins' little
black dog, "Minnie".
Dr. A. S. Ramsay on Thursday last
received word to report for duty at
Toronto as early as possible as Domin-
ion Meat Inspector. The Dr. during
the winter has been taking a course in
meat inspection and some weeks ago
wrote on and passed an examination
on the subject at London. That the
Dr. passed a very creditable examina-
tion is evident from the fact that he
so soon received word to report for
duty. He will dispose of his practice
here and move to Toronto. A. S. is a
real good fellow and the people of Ex-
eter and surrounding country will be
sorry to lose him, although they
heartily congratulate him on his ap-
pointment to the position.
b. S. Literary Society At Some.
The parents, guardians and others.
who were favored with invitations to
the "At home" given by the High
School Literary Society in the Opera
House on Friday evening, as well as
the teachers, students and ex -students,
spent a most enjoyable evening.
Promenades, a varied program of
music etc., and a lunch afforded ample
amusement for all present. Subjects
were chosen for discussion during the
promenades, and these gave plentiful
supply of ,nater•ial for the brilliant in
conversation. Mr. Win. Brown furn-
ished excellent music, which was high-
ly appreciated. The hall was nicely
decorated with palms, bunting and
flags. it was nearing the midnight
hour when the affair broke up.
Miss Manatee Married.
At Crystal City, on April 29th, the
marriage took place of a former Exe-
ter lady, Miss Clara Maud, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. John T. Manning, to Mr.
A. B. Jamieson, manager of the l'nion
Bank of that place. She was attired
in a dainty princess gown of white
organdie trimmed with embroidered
muslin, valenciennes lace and inset. -
tion, and wore the time honored bridal
veil. The only ornament worn by the
bride was an amethyst and pearl
brooch. the gift of the bridegroom.
The ceremony was performed in the
presence of only the immediate friends
of the contracting parties. The esteem
in which they were held was evidenced
by a very large number of useful and
costly presents. Following the ser-
vice, the guests partook of a delicious
breakfast, after which the bride don•
ned her travelling dress of brown
Venetian broadcloth. the coat opening
over a cream lace blouse; brown shoes,
hat and gloves completed her going -
away costume. After a short trip
they will reside in Crystal City.
Ricks' Forecasts For May.
A Reactionary Storm Pei igal falls
centrally on the 7th. Sth and 9th, with
the moon at apogee and at first quar-
ter. On the dates named look for ste-
cided reaction to warmer. with falling
barometer. soot hetly winds, cloudi-
I ness and rain. At this and all other
periods during much of this month,
the astronomic causes are sufficient to
excite careful watchfulness on the ap•
proarh of the storm clouds. Change
to rising barometer, much cooler, and
probable frost in many sections central
and northward, will come progressive-
ly from about the Sth to the 11th. Let
observers in southern, central :and
eastern sections watch for reports
from the northwest about the 8th, and
one to three days later, according to
locality. see if change to much cooler
doesn't reach their !oral patches. A
regilar storm period falls nn the 12th
to the le' h. The Moon is on celestial
equator or. the 12th, and full on the
15th. At the very beginning of this
*
♦ period, look for high temperature in
1 ail western extremes, attend:al by low
and filling barometer, cloudiness and
e idden thunder storms. A series of
daily rain. wind and thunder stomps
with probable tornadoes. during the
13th. lath, 15 h and i6th. will he most
natural results. if rains have been
general and copious thus far in the
Mars period. excessive downpours,
and floods over wide sections, will re.
stilt at this period. Another time of
seismic strain lies between the 13th
and 17th. being central cn the lath.
s,'hange to rising barometer, nod h•
west winds and much cooler will be
due from about the 10th to the 10th,

sionary services in the Trivitt Memor-
ial church on Sunday last, while Rev.
Collins filled the vacancy in Lucan an -
der similar auspices. Rev. Carlisle
made a strong appeal in behalf of the
missionary object, pointing out the ex-
treme necessity of a liberal giving by
the Christian world and the individual
responsibility that devolves upon all.
The 1908 Edition is out of that most
useful and valuable booklet, "5,000
Facts about Canada," compiled by
Frank Yeigh of Toronto, who is widely
known throughout the Dominion as
an authority on things Canadian.
Nearly 25,000 copies were sold of the
1907 edition, the demand coming from
every part of this Continent and the
British Empire. The idea worked out,
that of a concrete fact in a sentence, is
an excellent one, the data being ar-
ranged under such self -indexing titles
as area, agriculture, banking, com-
merce, finances, mining, railways,
wheat fields, etc. The wealth of mat-
erial contained in small space is a revel-
ation to even a well informed Cana-
dian of the standing and resources of
the country. The latok is published
at 25 cents a copy by The Canadian
Facts Publishing Co., 667 Spading
Avenue, Tnronto, Canada, or may be
had from Newsderilers.
