News Late Thursday Noon - Again we call
attention to the fact that news item
reaching this office at noon Thursday are
too late for the current week's issue. By
noon a good part of our issue is on its way to
subscribers. Matter should not reach this of-
fice later than noon on Wednesday to insure
insertion, although we accept important
news all afternoon, although last week we
were obliged to hold over a number of in-
teresting items for a lack of space.
Mail And Empire And Globe Merged -
After this week there will be but one morn-
ing paper published in Toronto, the Globe,
which has recently been reorganized with
plenty of financial backing, having bought
the Mail and Empire. The paper, which will
be larger than either of the existing papers,
will be published under the name of The
Globe and Mail and will be independent in
politics.
Wolf Shot Near Town - Wolf hunting in this
vicinity is a somewhat rare sport, but on
Wednesday afternoon last a couple of
hunters rather unexpectedly bagged a wolf.
Messrs. M. Batkin and Kenneth Stewart

The First Order - Though this is merely
the preparatory stage, the getting ready
period, the Clinton Motor Car Company is
already accepting orders. The first to be
booked was for a $3,000 motor truck for a big
house in the city. There is certainly every in-
dication of a bright future for Clinton's new
industry.
Let's Hand Pick Thein - Clinton has
entered upon a period of progress and what
is almost equally important appears to rank
high in the esteem of the neighboring
municipalities.
It is an important period and so it is up to
us, to as great an extent as ever before, to
exercise care in the selection of the men who

All Corn Still Not Harvested - If things
were bad for Huron County farmers, as
reported in this edition two weeks ago, they

fallen.in the last 14 days, nearly eclipsing an

Young Mother Pleads For Care, Courtesy
- A young mother has asked this newspaper
to appeal to motorists to use good manners
and common courtesy as they approach the
area of the Clinton Post Office, and at other
crossings that are heavily travelled.
She recently found herself and her baby in
its carriage, in grave danger of being in-
jured at the post office crossing over Vic-
toria (Highway 4.) "It's not me, so much,"
she said, "but for the baby. It's getting so
