The Public School trustees wieh to most emphatically deny the report that the school has not been fumigat- ed. Great care was taken by the trustees in seeing to it that the school was thoroughly fumigated in the holi- days. Robert Elliott, reeve of Goderich, passed away on Saturday in Hamilton, where he had gone to undergo an operation for an inward trouble which had bothered him for some time.

Frank Weaver, assisted by Misses Broca and Mitchell and first class talent from London, Those pupils taking part will be from Teeewater, Clinton, Goderich and all the local pupils. A real treat is in store for those who will patronize this concert. Mre. E. Aitchison, mother of the late Pte. L: Aitchison, who died of wounds in a hospital in England, and was accorded an impressive military funeral, has recently received someex- cellent photos of the funeral of her son, also a letter and a package of the shrapnel bullets which the doctors took from his body while operating. They thought by doing so they would save bis life. Some effective advertising should be done by the local merchants, at the present time. No less than 36 mail bags of catalogues from mail order houses have been. circulated through Wingham postoffice during the past few few daps , The merchant whose advt. does not appear in Tn'E. ADVANCE should bear in mind the fact that as a rule the public will trade where they are invited to trade. Considerable interest is being taken here in the charge, which is pending against Thomas Groves of being intoxicated in tbie unlicensed district on August 13th.

Tho defendant claims that he was not the worse of liquor, but that he had received a heavy blow or shock on the train on that day which ,caused hint to lose consciousness. Ells son, Earl, testified that several days afterward he found that his father had a swolien knee and severe bruises beneath the heart, A number of witnesses were sworn, but none of them would take the responsibility of saying what was wrong with the defendant on the night of the 13..h. It ie one thing to believe a man to be drunk an'i another to swear to it, if yon him drinking did not Seo h i or staggering or hear him say anything. 'To new subscribers only.

This week Daniel McIntosh, of Kin - lose township, in Lucknow locality, was here to visit Mr. Alex. McIntosh. They 'were old neighbors when both were farming near Langdon, North Dakota. The visitor spent 21 years in Dakota but it is 13 years since he came back. Many old incidents were review• ed in the visit and we are sure it was mutually enjoyable. Mr, McIntosh goes to Dakota next Saturday from Brussels for a businees trip of a few months to his farm at Langdon, which is rented. Mrs. McIntosh will remain in her home here. Good reports come from North Dakota as to crops, etc. Mrs. McIntosh accompanied her hus- band from Lucknow to Brussels'. —Brussels Post. . WIN. FROM SOUTHAMPTON Huron Oaks win the First Game in the Semi -Finals. A large crowd witnessed the lacrosse match on Friday afternoon in the Wingham park. It was the first game to be played in the semi-finals, and a much closer game was expected. Ale though the Southampton team played very good lacrosse during the entire game, the score 25-3 does not indicate it. It was a very clean game and the excellent combination and checking of the IIuron Oaks was, as one man from a neighboring town puts it, well worth coming to see, To mention any of the players in particular would hardly be fair as all the boys played excellent lacrosse. Knechtel made a number of good stops at the nets, The first quarter opened with an ex- hibition of clever lacrosse. Southamp- tan scoring the first goal. After a few minutes Wingham swept down on the Southampton ton g nal t and evened matters P up. The second quarter opened With the game centred around the visitors' goal, and after a few minutes playing reached the net. In this quarter the Huron Oaks seemed determined to make the lead as large as possible and by fast playing took the visitors off their feet. The game was now all Wingham's, and goal after goal was scored, wbile the Southampton team failed to score, and at half time the game stood 12 to 1. In the third quar- ter the home team Blackened their pace, and the visitors scored their second count. The Winghamites, however, soon came back and added four more goals, making the count 16 to 2 at the end of the third quarter. The last quarter was again Winghame, the first tally being made in short order. The visitors worked hard, however, and scored their third goal, Wingham run a very good chance of winning out in the 0, A. L. A. finals. Their present team is possibly the fleetest ten players that have congre' gated in any Ontario town the size of ours. The teams meet again at Southamp- ton on Wednesday, Sept. lst, and from the start they have on Southampton they are sure winners even thougk they are beaten, which is not a very likely thing.

The follqwing "Chronicles of Goder- ich Football Club" written after the style that prevailed during the latter part of the sixteenth and early years of the seventeenth century were clip- ped from a paper of over twenty years ago, , and presented to us by an esteem; ed citizen, for publication. Among the names of the Modellites thenat tending Model at Goderich are some Huron boys which have since been a credit to the county which gave them birth, CHAPTER I t The Book of Chronicles of the Football Club of the City of Goderich which lieth to the West of Ontario, on the borders of the great lake which is called Huron. 2 In month called September of the eighteen hundred and ninety and third year, the young men of the "Model- lites" did gather themselves together. 8 And one Tigert arose and spake unto the assembled "M odelltes" say- ing:- 4 Behold we he valiant men and strong and lack employment. Let us, therefore, send into the city and purchase a football. 5 So they sent into the city and purchased a football even as Tigert had said, and they diel kick it, and did many mighty deeds. 0 And they chose one Sillers, a mighty man among them to be their captain. CHAPTER II 1 Now it came to pass that the young men of the "Modellites" did again gather themselves together and Sillers arose and said: - 2 Behold now, we have become ex- pert with the football and our fame has gone abroad through the city. 3 But the young men of the "Col- legiate" do also kick upon the foot- ball, and they say they are mightier than we, 4 Let us, therefore, send unto the "Collegiates" a messenger. And he shall say unto them: - 5 Gather together thy young men in the city and your strong men of valor. 0 For we shall contend with thee at football, and thy bones shall whit- en on the desert. 7 So they sent a messenger unto them and did all things even as Sillers had said. 8 But when the messenger had drawn nigh unto the 'Collegiates" and spake these things unto them, Lo! they were filled with wrath and said unto them: - 9 Go thee back unto the "Model- lites" and say unto them.=Lo! we will come in a day thou woulds't not and will defeat thee utterly. 10 So it came to pass that on the eleventh day of the ninth month they met within the city, 11 And Sillers did lead the "Model- lites" on the field, and Arde did stand upon the centre to shoot upon the goal, and one Morrison did stand in the goal and defended it right valiant- ly. 12 And they played until eventide and prevailed not the one against the other. CHAPTER III 1 Now when the "Modellites" saw that the men of the "Collegiate" were mighty they sent a messenger unto them saying: - 2 Lo! ye be right valiant men. Let us therefore be united and go in- to the neighboring cities, even to the great city of Clinton. 3 And we shall challenge them to play ball with us, and we shall defeat them utterly and gain great glory, 4 So it came to pass shat they sent a messenger unto Clinton. 5 Now when it was known in Clin- ton that the young men of Goderich were coming unto Clinton, Behold! a commotion arose in the city. 6 And the elders of the city gather- ed together and said: '7 Behold these men shall come in a day we know not. Let us therefore gather together our young men to meet them, 8 And it came to pass the "Model- lites" and "Collegiates" did go into the city and purchased horses and chariots and set out for Clinton. 9 And when they nigh come ni h unto the city, the elders of the city came forth to meet them and conduct- ed them into theY it and set burnt cr offerings before them, 10 And it came to pass that the men of Goderich did defeat the risen of Clinton utterly, even two to one. 11 And there was much sorrow and desolation in the eity and the young men did mourn and the maidens did weep bitter tears. 12 And the young men of Goderich did return unto their city, and there was much joy and rejoycing in the city. CHAPTER IV 1 Now when the young men of Canton had mourned with sackcloth and ashes even seven days and seven nighte theyarose a r e and said one to an. other: 2 Behold! now the men of Goderich do exult exceedingly, and the children do revile us in the streets because we were defeated. 3 Let us therefore be revenged, for hath not the man said . "Revenge is sweet," let OA therefore arise and go into their city and defeat them.
