the best farms in Ushorne, a township
noted for its many fine farms. Mr.
and Mrs. Sweitzer will go west in the
spring.
The ringing of the fire alarm on Fri-
day morning only meant that the in-
surance inspector was in town. The
brigade had the engine out in quick
time and naught hut a good report
could be made of the town's flre-flght-
ing system. But just here we would
like to voice the opinion of the major-
ity of the townspeople that the insur-
ance underwriters have no right to
send an inspector around asking to
have fire alarms rung indiscriminately
and we believe the reeve should retiree
the request. With the Clinton New
Era we believe the practice is next to
it etinlinal offense.

by all that they excelled themselves.
Trivitt Memorial Church—It has
been decided not to reserve any seats
for the recital to -night (Thursday.)
The program is full of good music, old
and new works being about evenly
divided. The sacred songs, Jerusalem,
0 Divine Redeemer, The Palms are
always welcome items on a program,
and Mr. Dwight -Edwards interpreta-
tion of them and the arias from 'Elijah'
and "Samson" should please all who
attend. Mr. Brown's seieetions on
the organ are also well-chosen, includ-
ing both classic and popular organ
works. We hope Mr. Brown will have
a large attendance to encourage him
to bring more talent of Mr. Dwight -
Edwards' standing to our town.
Groundhog Day.
Saturday last was groundhog day.
If we are to be governed by the weath-

buds will soon began to sprout and
spring poets will soon be ready to har-

leaves his winter quarters on the morn-
ing of Feb. 2 and surveys the sur-
roundings. 1f be then sees his shadow
he retraces his steps with haste to re-
sume his warm quarters for another
six weeks, but, if on the contrary he
does not see his shadow he starts to
make preparation for spring, shake off
his lethargy and once more enjoy life.
The day was an unmistakably dull one.
