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.

' 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 vet married to such a responsible posi- tion Hoy Wanted A good smart boy: wanted to learn printing.

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. TURD AA Fall and Winter Dress Goods. 1We are i.la and doing.
