Brewer, of the 7th line, She had been sick for three years, and spent the past year in Guelph to be near her favorite doctor, She had been a cheerful and brave sufferer, and just as she was being able to en. joy life and outside pleasures, fell in her bedroom and fractured her hip, She was rushed to the ho'pital, where 'It set with the heat of care, She suf- feted for six days, and despite all that mild be done for her in mediral aid and loving care, we Met her.

The other day he was telling L r. McMaster all about his new gas wagon.

The .well thought for a min- ute and asked, "Well, Quest, how the mischief, do you knots it is there at ifll?" One evening last week George Eck - mire and 13. F. Carr were drawn into a rather serious argument over the construction of a prettily made gate by the former for the latter. The question in dispute seemed to be just whether the support on that gate should run East and West or North and South, Now George Eckmtre, has been making gates so long that he is an authority on the sub- ject. It is even stated that with Saint Peter he has a thorough idea of the construction of the pearly gate. However in this case there seethed to be a hitch in the proceedings and B. F. decided that the wisest plan would be to call in a third party, a person not prejudiced either way, and Jinni McLelland was summoned as a royal commissioner and fence viewer to hold'Sn inquest over the gate. Ho is now working on the case and as soon as possible we will report ]tis finding. 'i'he softball game staged on the Park on Friday night was not as well attended as it should have been after being advertised during the week, Sporting events in our village, sad to say, attract about as much support as a sleigh ride party in mid-sumnmer. Whether it was the price of admis- sion. (15c) or just lack of interest, we are unable to say but it is this lack of support that will guarantee our village 'dead and buried in the near future, or at least, will make the carrying on of sporting events at impossibility, However, to return to the game under discussion, We must add that it was a good exhibi- tion of the favorite pastime and the style of game played. The Drussels team on short notice fielded a team that plcyed a good game, and al- though losing by one run Scored by Ethel in the 9th inning, the Brussels Ayers gave a good account o£ them- selves and the management appreci- Ste their spirit of sportsmanship very much: George Dunbar was invited by the Brussels eaptain to bandit. the game and he had no trouble at all as his decisions were received without question throughout tine gang., Mrs. Pear, of Jlrussel.e. is r :;iti It tee Immo of her .son, ,i, 11.

Our usually quiet village was somewhat stirred up on Saturday afternoon, when George Meneics staged a little act on the street, when his spirit team decided to show sone "life" and the result of George's careful feeding, and ran away. After he. ltad intuit' his trip down th.i street the villagers were out and ready' to form an escort for George if he dingo to repeat the perfo•manee.
