The undersigned is just closing the

but this finds us still in the race.
Duringthose fifteen years many
changes have oorne over the business
visage of Exeter. There are only three
places of business now in operation
showing the same managing head and
other two that have made partial changes
with new managers,that were contempo-
raries in 1876. I feel myself indebted
to my many customers for their liberal
patronage afforded me during these
years. Whether large or small "pur-.
choses, they have my sincere thanks,
and I, would ask a continuance of the
same. It will be mine to study their
needs, seeking to place before them
goods equalto those of the past, assur-
ing the purchasers of proper attention.
and doing our best to meet the wants of
the most fastidious.

FooTs.a,L-The Eden foot ball club went
to Grand Bend on 25th to play a game with
the club there. On arriving, tbere seemed
to be no such a thing as a oldb of any kind;
but about 12 o'clock the supposed captain
turned up and set the matoh for two o'clock.
When that hour arrived both aloha were
arranged on the field, both seeming oonfisl-
ent of victory. At call of play Coates' kick-
ed to Dempsey who parried it down on goal,
but the "egg-shaped" ball was kinked book
to centre in an instant. Eden again got
the ball, and with a few passes from one
man to another, seoured their first goal.
This seemed toencoarage the boys a little
for they worked the next half time like
trojans • The Bend goal keeper could not
withstand the shote that were rained on
goal from time to time by Coates, Dempsey
and Bowden, and to 1 the second goal was
scored, Grand Bend has a .strong team but
the old time luck of the Edenites did not
fail them and they came off victorious
Score, 2.0. Eden also has a junior olub,
oomposed of younger and smaller players
than that of the first. It wouldn't do to
say they were as good as the first team, but
just the same would not take a bank net
from any of them. About three weeks ago,
these young juveniles went to the town of
Elimville and defeated the club there by 1'
goal to none. Of course Ellaville had to
play the return match, and on Saturday
niht last game to Eden to try to win bank
'what they had lost -bat no 1 the little club
was again too much: for the champions of the
swamps, and played io the tune of 2 goals
to none. Go on boys and may the luok
that has attended you for so long never fail.
Challenges will reoeiye the greatest of at-
tention by either club. Now is your time.
Send them iu as soon as possible.

time honored customs of our torefathers
are discarded by their descendants ; but.
it is all right as long as the change is for
the better.
