There will be a sale of fancy work and homemade cooking, Mr. Frank Metcalf, who has been Dominion inspector of fruit, with head. quarters at Regina, is expected home this week. This is earlier than' usual, but he has had very poor health this season, having been in the hospital at Regina for some considerable time, His wife and daughter are with him and they also will return, Mr. Chas Burling has been doing some great work getting his open-air rink in condition, so that when the cold weather sets in he will go ahead and get ice. We have no doubt a great many of the young people will take ad- vantage of this pleasure resort to enjoy themselves at this invigorating exer- cise. W. F. Vanetone, of Wingham, was in town last week looking after the re- pairing of his sawmill here. We under- stand it is his intention to run it again full blast this winter, as he expects there will be more demand for lumber the coming year than there was the past season. This will be a good thing for the town, as the mill employs a number of men who have a poor chance to get any other work at this time of year.
