School Section No. 3, Morris, have passed a resolution to pay $1 per annum, each to the Britssele Post and the Herald for publishing the monthly reports.

The annual meeting of the Galt and Preston electric railway was held the other day, The report showed that on Deo. 31, 1894, the road had been in operation a few days oyer five months, and that the gross receipts for that time had been $5,988.27, while the running expenses had been $4,155.22, making the net earnings $1, 825.05. The costs in the Orange-Euphemia damage suit swells up to about $1,.500. This, added to the amount of judgment, makes the total cost to the township of Euphemia $7,000. The case was tried at the fall assizes in London a year ago. The plaintiff was a lady school teacher in .Euphemia, a farmer resident of Exeter, and seoeived severe injuries by being thrown out of a rig. The accident was due to a defective roadway. Mr. Wm. Bawden has disposed of the entire Samwell property, in small parade, making the last sale on Monday to "gem. Davidson, being the two acres on which the barns stood. The barns were . die: posed of to Mr. Thos. Yellow and R. Williams. respectively. The purchase survey and sale of this farm in a few months,under adverse eircumstanees,illus- tratee the superior business abilities of Mr. Bawden. We may expect to -hear of his further enterprise along this line. Mr. Geo. Baird has been engaged in teaching at Baird's school house, 2nd con. of Stanley for 3.2 oonsecuttve years. Daring that time he has kept the school folly abreast of the times, and many of his pupils -are now filling some important and responsible positions. The standing of the school bas never fallen behind in any respect, and is a decided credit to his patience and industry. We doubt if tbeie is another teacher in the whole Dominion who has remained, with efficiency, so long in one section, and the indications are that Mr. Baird will remain in Stanley for et:considerable number of years yet. The salt men of Western Ontario were closeted et the Tecumseh House, London, again Monday. This was the third meet- ing within a month, the object being to fix a standard price on the produot, Among the manufacturers present were: Rev Dr Armstrong, Moore; John Bansford, Clinton: E C Cole, Seaforth; Wm Gray, Seaforth; J 0 Carter, Sarnia. The meeting lasted all day and was, of oouse, held behind closedddoors. A committee was appointed to wait upon the Ontario Salt Company, of Kincardine, and the Windsor Salt Company, to tell them that their demands re allotments are excessive. The meeting then adjourned until the secretary receives a report from the committee. A prominent dealer who attended the meeting said: "Undoubtedly the pride of salt will go up." "How high?' was asked "Well, to 75 cents a barrel at least.' Tho price at present ranges from 50 to 65 cente.

The storm of last week was one of the most severe in the memory of the oldest inhabitant, For aeveral days bieainess and everything else, including the trains, were at a standstill. The snow fall was beavy,and acoompanied_by a strong wind, the bee flakes were packed like sand into huge drifts, ranging from eight to twenty - live feet high and located principally on the highways and railroads. So firm were the drifts that farmers could drive along on the top without making any impres- sion. Tue morning train 'from the south on Saturday was delayed in Exeter until Sunday evening and the betnrday morn- ing train from the north did not arrive un- til Sunday afterunon, being stalled in a heavy drift near Clinton, The snow plow which arrived from the north on Sunday, clearing the track for the express, was viewed at the depot by a large number of people. Trafiio was resumed on Monday and has been regular sines• Anniversary. The anniversary services in connect- ion with the Thames Road Presbyterian church on Sunday and ,Monday, while not so largely attended on account of the impassible state of the roads, were equal to former years from a financial view. The storm of the previuos few days not only blockaded the country roads but filled the railroads to such an extent that the trains for a couple of days were stalled here and there along the lines, all combining to render the affair a failure. On Sanday both ser- vices were well attended, while on Monday and Tuesday evenings the crowds were, as usual, very large. Rev W J Clarke, of London, was not present on account of no railway traffic on. Sat- urday, but notwithstanding, the plat- form meeting on Monday night was splendid, eudidspeakers the b em n Rev Stewart, of rI •m tone I artin Exeter; Coupland, Elinivilie;and Dr Gardiner, of London. The good things provided by theeladieswere never appreciated more, and their efforts in providing for the affair uader the adverse circum stances were well rewarded. The pro- ceeds, including collections and receipts from o tea and social amounted to a sum equal to former years—$125.

The Sabbath School Convention of the Methodists of the Exeter Distriut was held in Crediton on the 6th inst., 22• o and though the thermometer registered urn-9below zero, yet there was a good turn - 9 c c out. Representatives from both Eng- lish and German churches were on hand $1.50 to welcome the strangers. The after- noon and evening sessions were, wellattended. Rey Geo Jackson, chair- man of the Exeter District presided. The first subject taken up was "Sunday $1,00 School Entertain men ts." The convent- ion was in favor of entertainments for $1, 00 the children,and entertainment with moral and religious tendencies. "How $1.00 to inculcate the practise of liberality" brought out ttie old, old, question : Is' it right to give a tenth? . Some people are awfully afraid that they may make a mistake andivo the g Lord too much. Rev John l o n Ho mss, of Parkhill, drove against that bitter cold wind to be present and take his part in the pro• gram. Subject, "The Successful Teacher." Somewhat of a nsw depart- ure ivas introduced in this convention by the committee having Mr H E Huston introduce the subject of "Hygiene." Mr Huston advocated two kinds of medicine, the one to be rubbed on and the other t.r be taken, "water and pure air," But, perhaps the paper that was par excellent was prepar- ed by Miss Carrie Hicks, uf Centralia, 15c ".The `.Teacher and the spiritual interest of the Class." Mr Wm Stevens, of Crediton, awakened great interestin the able manner in which he handled the subjeot, "How to awaken interest in Bible Study. After the question drawer, Rev El W Locke took the "Children's Service," in a Sermonethe. There were about twenty bright little boys and girls present. D1rLocke took a little text, "We love Him because He first loved us." The little folks gave Mr Locke the best,of attention and it was ap- preciated by those older and outside of his little congregation. In the absence of Rev T B Coupland, Rev Mr Harper intrcduced "Church and School" and did itis a very able and enthusiastic. mannei. The subject assigned to kir 1 Jas Delgaty, "Danger and Safe Guards of our Boys" was the most important introduced during the convention. Mr Delgaty in speaking of dangers laid great stress upon selfishness. If the parent was selfish the child -would soon learn to be selfish too. Mr Delgaty said that some parents were too strict in their discipline and some too lax. He was a wise father who could strike the happy medium. First and foremost among the safe guards were Christian teachers in our Public Schools. That school trustees ought; to be ashamed of themselves to allow a few paltry dollars to cause them to part with a teacher who has the moral and Christian wel- fare of the children at heart. After the usual vote of thanks the convention was brought to a close. 25c 25c 20c 2c 25c 60 25c 20c $1.75 15e 15e 15e We have also a number of Remnants of various kinds of Goods which we will clear re- gardless of Cost and everything store will in ourbe sold at Tremendous Bargains for next ib days.
