All the creameries id .this country
operated by Mr. Hannah - have been
'closed for thin season. Mr. Hannah
says this has been a very discouragiLg
year in the creamery business on ac-
count of cream being so scarce. This
was due partly to dry- weather and
short grass and .partly, to the scarcity
and high price of dairy • butter, many
making butter themselves, who inless
fayorable seasons send their cream to
the creameries.

have labored harder for the welfare of
the exhibitors and the glory of his nat-
ive country than that gentleman
There is not an exhibitor inany sect-
ion of his department who has not a
pleasant word to' say of the popular
superintendent, atld'he may, return to
his native country with the assurance
that he has performed his exacting
duties wih credit to himself and his
country and the exhibitors."

We made mention in our last issue
of Mr. Greg. Tom's recent appointment
in Vancouver B, C. ' The Vancouver
Daily Netvs-Advertiser and the Daily
World thus refers to it:—"After a little
discussion as to whether itwasueeessa ry
to appoint a teacher by ballot, Mr. Col-
lins moved seconded by Macgowan.
that Mr Tom be appointed principal of
the East End school. The motion was
carried without a dissenting voice,"
(World), "Matters in the public school
have resumed their normal condition.
Everything is working satisfactorily
and pleasantly under the principalship
of Mr. Tom." From what we learn
rom.the School Board minutes it has
been the usual custom of the trustees
to ballot on all applicants for, principal
ship; but in Mr. Tom's case the balloting•
was dispensed with and Mr. Tom ap-
pointed by a motion, and was carried
without a dissenting vote,which speaks.
much for Mr. Tom's efficiency and,:
abilities as a teacher. The school whieh
Mr. Tom undertakes to control con-
tains twelve : departments, with two
male and nine female assistants and,
is the largest public school in the city,
thus Mr. Tom undertakes a big re-'
�
sponshility but he has had a very'
successful experience and is fie every
way qualified for the duties which now
devolve upon him. Perhaps some of
the wise (?) people of Exeter may won-
der at the Vancouver School Board in
appointing a young man who is not

Wedding.
Last (Wed) evening theresidence of
Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Sanders, Stephen,
was the scene of a most pleasing and.
interesting event,, it being themar..
riage of their daughter Grace to Mr.
James Hill, of redit n. The ceremony
was performed by the Ravi,- Mr. Baker,
in the presence of a number of the con•
tracting parties immediate . relatives.
Afterthe happy couple .had received
the customary congratulations, all sat
down to a sumptuous repast provided
by the host and hostess; after which a
few hours of pleasant pastime were
spent. The bride was the recipient of.
many costly and useful presents.
Will Provide Stationary.
It is understood that the Ontario
Government haye resolved for the pur-
pose of securing uniformity, to issue
stationary for forms, etc.; to be used
in taking the vote in the prohibition
plebiscite on 1st January next. Ballot
papers and poll books Must, in compli-
ance with the act, be procured by the
clerk of each municipality. but the ordi-
nary poll book will be used, with the
addition of a ruled col arnn, headed,
"Prohibition." 'The yariens forms will
be supplied, without clielee'-,''andwill be
forwarded, with copies of the plebiscite
act, for use by the deputy returning
officers, in ample time for the coming
municipal ele;tions.
Literary Note.
The leading feature of the Review of
Reviews for November is its presenta•
tion of the-"Pcssibilities of the G eat
Northwest," in an article by Mr. S. A.
Thompson, and in;. a supplementary
article by Dr. R Johnson, upon "Inland
Water -ways for the Northwest!' Mr.
Thompson, as secretary of the DuUtth
Chamber of Commerce, has for several
a a•
years been actively en„a„ed in search-
ing out and applying effective means
for bringing the great states northwest
of the Upper Mississippi; and the great
Canadian provinces belonging gen•
graphically to the sanie region, into
closer communications with therest of
the North American' continent. He is
therefore able; to write with an enthtts•
iasm born of intimate knowledge of the
subject and supported' by very import-
ant and surprising statistics, Dr. John-
son is lecturer on •y I'ra.nsportatiotl in
the Wharton School of Finance and
Economics, University, of Pennsylvania`
and has recently pudlished a mono-
graph upon "Indian Waterways.' Dr,
Johnson particularly emphasizes the
importance Of canal and Aver trans-
portation as a tn'eans''of'ibefeting rail -
Way rates, and he; finds a ,every, lerge
social as well as deeeomic ;influence re-
salting from the extensieti of faculties
for shipping and for personal „travel.
These two articles suggest a futare`of
almost unimaginable' growth for the
great Northwest.' Each article is fit-
tingly illustrated.
