Ist, 1914, we are pleased to be able to say that the Hospital has had another successful year and has been able to close the accounts with a milli balance on hand. Thee, he:I/eves,eves only ac- complished by the careful bantling of the funds available for the mainten- ance of the institution. Owing to the circumstances govern- ing the financial conditions of our country the Directors did not think it advisable to proceed with any of the proposed additions to the building, however, during the coming year it is hosed that it will be possible to ge on with at least part of the improve• ments, which are considered absolute- ly necceesery. 1 During the past year several of the private wards were painted, that is, the walla, ceilings, fi tors. etc., also tl e verandahs on the front of the building. the 'sh painting proposed to fins tis >< inside of the building during the com- ing winter. the clergymen of the town, also vocal and instrumental selections. To all those who have assisted us during the yeah we again wish to ex• prose cur thanke for their; support and continued interests in the well-being of the Hospital. R.

Scott—Cunningham On Wednesday, October 28th, at .c welve o'clock noon there took place the marriage of Lizzie Agnes Cunning- ham, only da,ughter of Mr. James Cunningham, cf the village of Beta crave, and Cyrus Walter Scott of East Wawauosh township. The ceremony was performed et the home of the bridled father by ,Rev, A. el, Boyle 'minister of Knoxleresbytetian church, Belsrave, assisted by Rev. J. A. Fer- guson of Norval. As the bride entered the room, conducted by her father, carrying a bcgnet of bridal roses, the wedding march was playedn by Mise Mary 1. Nichol of,Weetninster, cousin of the bride. There were about thirty guests present, relatives and intimate friends of the bride and groom from the immediate neighborhood and from Westminster, Blyth, Londesboro and Norval. The bride's wedding dress was of white silk albatross 'with hallow lace and pearl trimming and she wore real orange blossoms. Her travelling costume was a tailored suit of black serge with hat to match. After the wedding dinner the newly rnarried couple left on the afternoon train for Toronto, Niagara and other pointe, followed by the best wishes of their friends and of the whole neigh. eorhood. The bride and groom are both well-known and highly respected members of the community, having Lived for years in the district. Mrs, Scott" for some years was a most cap- able public school teacher in the vicin- ity of her home. As a member of Knox church.Belgrave she gyve a faithful and unselfish service in itis different activ;ties, as a member of tho choir, -a teacher and officer in the Sunday School, a member in the Young Peoples' Guild and in any kind of usefulness in the community, she could be depended on to take an active part. The bride and groom will re- main in the neighborhood, on the farm of Mr Scott on the sixth concession of E tat ' awanosh. We have to thank the County of Huron for their grant of $271.72, and the Town of Wingham for the annu- al grant of $2)3.05. The town also granted $303 00 towel ds our building • fund, to be paid when building opera- .. tions are started. Our thanks are al- so due to the Ladice' Auxiliary, to whom we are greatly indebted hr their untiring efbrts in keeping up the supplies of the institution ; such a8 linens, bedding, etc. With the co- operation of the Superintendent, Miss Mathews, the ladies are taking the en- tire charge of this pert of the work and financing f_tr the sante, which is a great help to the success of the Hospit- al, While we are grateful to the County pf Huron for the antual grant, it app institution ' colors of an institution, , stat e which is largely in the interests of the general public, and in no way self- sustaining, that some special off trt should be made to bear on the County Council whereby they would realize Hospitals tthe that itals in the County of Heron ate almost indispensible, and that a more liberal s±tippert be given. Other counties give generously to the support of hospitals and the wealthy County or Huron should not be bahibd in this charitable work, Doting the past year the hospital Gradua'ing Beeteiees wets held in the Town Elle 1 and were largely attended by the elt;zenis of the town and sur- rounding country, e'.o ving that the community in general is greatly interested in this workings of the hospital.

How Hard Times Come Said workman Cole to farmer Brown, "Its not a cinch to live in town, I've lots of work and fairish pay, But can't afford a holiday."

Said miller Dale to merchant Drew, "I'm laying off a man or two; X really do not know the cause,. But trade is not just what it was." Said merchant Drew to drummer Gunn, "My sales are falling off like fun; Close up your grip, call off Sour talk, And chase yourself around the block." Said drammer Gunn to wholesale Code, "There's nothing doing on ths road; There never were such blighted times; You couldn't sell gold bricks for dimes."

Both Peritans and Roman Catholics were disappointed; therlatter expected much from him since his mother Mary Queen of Scots was a Roman Catholio.

The thfir head, resolved to destroy at a blow both King and Parliament. Barrels ,.f powder. were placed ina cellar beneath the Parliament House; and while waiting fir the fifth of Nov- emrter, when the Parliament was sum- moned to meet, the plans of the little group widened into a formidable' con- spiracy. Catholics of greater fortune, such as Sir E rerard Digby and Francis 'Tresham, were admitted to their con- fidence, and supplied money for the larger projects they designed. Arms were bought in Flanders, horses were held in readiness, a meeting of Catholic gentlemen was brought about under chow of a hunting%party to serve the beginning of a rising. The destruction of the King was to be followed'by the seizure of his children and an open re - hunting party broke up in despair, the conspirators were chased from county to county, and either killed or sent to the block, and Garnet, the Provincial of the Boglish Jesuits, was brougbeeto trial and executed.
