Boys and girls should learn to swiss as it 18 au attomplisement that nfiay save their own lives and •those of others. Having learned to swim they should next learn, however, not to take risks by swimming when overheated, or just after eating a hearty steal. No matter how well one swims, there 1s need for good sense and caution. The many friends here and elsewhere of Rev. R. J. M. Perkins of Ingersoll, a former rector of the Trivitt Memor- ial church, will learn with muco regret that he has been obliged,to give up his charge for a time at (east to go aboad for the good of his health, he having been afflicted with a severe attack of 'nerve trouble. Under the heading "The right ratan In tit t right place" the Clinton News -Record last week gave an excellent write-up of a former Exeterite, Mr. L. C. Fleming, County Secretary of the Y. \1. C.

The Isaak Walto'i Fishing Club spent Thuraday last at Grand Bend on their, annual fishing trip. The day was not as suitable as on many previous occas- ions for the catching of fish -the wind, the water and the weather being unfavor able. However considerable of a catch wag made and the day was thoroughly enjoyed. Two prices were awarded; one b pocket -book, for the largest fish caught during the day. and presented by President N. D. Burdon, was won by Mr. Lyman Palmer. The other, an um - b. -elm for the largest number of fish ..fight within an hour and presented by Mr. Palmer, was won by Mr. A.

It 1s a pity that girls who are diepoi ed to be witty at the expense of others do nct know how unattractive they make themselves, and how often they of- fend against good taste. A smart girl sometimes says unkind and untrue things about her comrades, and thicks It all right when those to whom site says them laugh at them. Do not be deceived girls.

About eighty tickets were sold at this station for the Farmers' Excur- sion to Guelph on Friday last. Through some hitch on the part of the Grand Trunk no special train was pipvided, hence those gloing had to take the reg- iar at 8 48. while conte refused tp go and demanded their money back. A special. however, was made up at Lon- don, but it arrived at Guelph one hour let-ir than schedule time. The F'armer's Institute will have a good case for damages against the Grand Trunk for breach of contract.
