TBE Toronto News in its sketches of Local House celebrities, refers to. the member of East Heron as follows : -Thomas Gibson, Al. P. P., East Huron, was horn in Berwickshire, Scotland, on, Jan. 8, 1825, .and re. tains the broad Scotch accent to this day. He was reeve of ilowiok for 7 years, and then turned his ambition a step higher. In 1867 be unsuccess- fully contested his present seat; but was elected In 1871, and afterwards lir 1815, 1870, and 1888. Ho is one ,,1f the old heads e seldom speaks, but esu tallc when he wants to; and is an invaluable man on the DOniniittee8, being gifted with that`sound common sense that is' characteristic of his na- tion. In appearance his bristling, iron -gray Bair and clipped beard stanch out not unlike the points of the Soot- tfeh national emblem: Gibson is not. a Conservative.

On Saturday the Institute will be continued when in- teresting addresses are expected from the leading agriculturalists of the Province, followed by disoussions on the various topics. A large attend - anus of persons interested will add greatly to the success of the gather, ing and it ie to be hoped that the meeting will be productive of good. - AT the meeting of the Direotores, patrons and shareholders of the Cheese factory, held last Saturday, J. W. Robertson, the. new dheese maker, gave a very wore/ding and instructive address on cheese making and dairying interests generally. itir. Robertson is a practical man aud'un- doretands his business thoroughly. He has recently been appoointod In- spector of the Dairying interests of Western Ontario, by the Ontario Government. A hearty vote of thanks was passed to the speaker. John Forbes was appointed salesman for the incoming season. Several of the milk routes were lot by auction and the remaining routes will be let on Saturday, Feb. 27th, 'at the Town Hall, Brussels. R. Mannino, of Exeter, 1)ietrict agent for the.Confederation Life As- sociation, was in town on Tuesday attending to the preliminary arrange- ments for the settlement of the claim of the late A. Webster for $2,000 against that Company. Mr. Man- ning is one of the beet agents in the Province. One of 11i:r. Webster's petioles had been in force for five years and the other was taken last November and therefore only one payment, (or his note for it) had been made. The nioney will tie paid to the widow as soon as the will is prov- en and the guardianship papers ready. One thing that elan be said in favor of the Confederation Co., and their estimable agent, is that they are very prompt in settling all just claims and $1.000 of the $2,00 would have been paid to Airs. Webster be. fore this had there been no will but owing to this ' the usual legal .form must be complied with', ' • Hasonslvss has just received a very handsome stock of Wall Papers. First ohoioe is the best, remember. THE SKATING Rias. -Considerable ,discussion has been raised over' the letter read by Rev. Mr. Smyth, tont Sunday evening, and his reply to the enquiry. The writer asked if the rink was a proper place for people professing to be Christians, and dealt some hard blows about the "mixed" society found there. The rev. gentle- man stated that no 'lady should at- tend the rink without an escort; no member of the church should go there .while meetings were in progress' in their church and if a person could not ask Ihs blessing of God upon them as they went to the rink they should not go, if they are Christians. We agree with Mr. Smyth in the main but we do not fall in with the a long. mous interrogator. The skating rink is like every other public gathering, there's theewheat and chaff, but a lady can boas choice in her company there as any place °lee and need not take up with persons who are not to her taste. The Directors have rules governing the conduct of those attending and anything ungentleman ly or inclining to rowdyism would soon be snuffed out. We believe in' healthful' exercise, not indulging in it until exhausted, and while there may- be objections raised to an enclosed rink we are of the opinion that ,they are more than counterbalances by the dangers, and exposure of out -door skating. On the Brussels skating rink may be found some of the most respectable people of the place and to set it.down as a resort for the great unwashed ie a•libel on our best oiti.seas. Mr. Smyth's idea of youngster being sent to the rink, if at all, in the after- noons instead of the .evenings in in accordance with our 'Melte of what is right. Children should not bo allow- ed to remain on the rink until 10 o'- clock at night, but as, every parent think themselves capable of managing their own household we suppose we will have to allow them to engineer this business.
