There is a joke going around at the expense of a modest young news- paperman in a neighboring town width is so „shod that it nng111 be true. Tho young man in question, it appears, was recently invited to a party where the home had lately been blessed with an addition to the film - My. Accompanied by his best girl he met he kind hostesss at the door, and after the customary salutation, sk- ed after the welfare of the baby. The lady was suffering from ,t cold, which made her deaf, and she mis- takenly supposed that the young man was enquiring about her cold. She replied that though she had one ev- ery winter, this was the worst one she ever had; it kept her awake at night at first and confined ]ler to her bed. Then noticing that the scribe was getting pale, and nervous, she said she could tell by his looks that he was going to have one just like hers, and she asked hila to go and lie down, The paper came out as usual the next week, but the editor has given up enquiring about babies A THE BRUSSELS POST Improvements, (deo, 11,•81 hag rebuilt a garage and it p+'.•tis is the shingles and .eielirn, 11110', - John Logan is r, -modelling hie kits then at his hone, on 71i11 street, The top veraadlta i; b -Mg renl0V- i-d at tho Queelr a Hotel.

A feature of the congregational meeting of the United Church held 011 Good Friday evening and men- tioned in our laet issue, was the re- port of the "'Succes, Camp" of 'Trail Rangers. It was pointed out that this group is following the program for boys as suggested by the Ontario Boys' Work Board, and which pro- gram the m, to develop a bo nn gtratn u p Y four eith e 01 his nature, h.e., mental- ly, religious, physical and social. These; four departments were very briefly explained. The boys took an active share in the recent bond sell- ing campaign condunteo to rase funds to carry on boys' work throughout the province. In recog- nition of their' c,Torte, two of the lade had received bronze medals, re- presenting sales of $5 oath, namely Stuart Brighton and Stuart Glassier; and a silver medal, showing sales to the value. of $20, had been captured by Dean Davison, Chief Ranger, The group as a whole, was awarded •the, itistru 1 shield for Huron and Perth Counties, representing an average sale of 87 per member, The shield Was unveiled by Dean Davison and is indeed as handsome one,. It is of • bronze and re pre vents the four -fold development already mentioned.

When Ontario's new liquor act comes into actual effect, the degree of freedom with respect to liquor will not be so extensive as In the province of Quebec. In that prove the words: "Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, there shall also this that this woman hath done, be told for 0 memorial of her:" In the course of hie remarks Mr. Redden referred to the kind heart, kind thoughts, kind words and kind deeds which had always been characteristics of hiss Augustine's life. Rev. D. R. Patterson, pastor of Trinity United Church, offered up 0 prayer of consolation for the be- reaved, and Rev. R. 1M. Fothering- ham, pastor of Knox United Church, read the 14th chapter of St. John's gospel, which commences with the words, "Let not your heart be trou- bled." Had not Rev. P. C. Peed, pastor of the First Baptist church, been suddenly called to a caes of sickness, he, too, would have taken part in the service. The choir of the church was in attendance, the hymns sung being, "What a Friend we have in Jesus," and "Blessed be the. Tie that binds." Before the body was taken from the church, C. H. Wright, organist' and choirmaster, gave •01 impressive rendering to Handel's "Dead March in Saul." The pall- bearers were: Inspector Wilson, pub- lic school inspector, and the follow- ing school principals, R. 11. John- ston 1(Central); W. J. Judd (St. James ), R. S. McBurney (Cornwall) I,. Nesbitt (Pine street), T. R. I\Ic- Ewen (Prospect). The floral trib- utes were numerous and very beauti- ful. At. the conclusion of the ser- vice, the remains- were taken to the Canadian Pacific railway st^.tion , whence they were shipped yesterday morning to Toronto, en route to Lucknow, where interment will be made. Accompanying the body east were Mrs, Walker, of Brussels, sis- ter; Ormiston Augustine, Brentford, brother; Miss Pentland, Clinton, niece, who is a school teacher at Clinton; Laverne Augustine, brother, of Fort Saskatchewan, Alta., who journeyed east as far as Schreiber with the other members of the fun- eral party, taking last night's train back from Schreiber to his ]lone. in Fort Saskatchewan.

There is provincial , autonomy with respect to this phase of commerce. The federal policy is to prohibit the shipment of liquor by mail. Should any province, however, pass an act providing for such ship- ment by mail, or include a clause In its liquor act, then the post office must comply and cannot prohibit the shipment by mail within that prov- ince. 'Quebec has such a clause in its liquor act, but there is no such law in the Ontario act. D. B. Han- na, chairman of the Ontario liquor commission, said that the board had 110 intention of shipping liquor by mail, lint would use only- the express for such purpose. "Jacob's Bondage." The Dramatic Cantata, presented by the Blyth Choral Society, an the auspices of the Ladies Aid of United Church, given in the Town Hall Wednesday evening of a week, was a real musical treat from the first selection by the orchestra until the last chorus, "All Are Now United." The characters, both He- brew and Egyptian, were well repre- sented, from Father Jacob clown to his youngest son, Benjamin. 01d Father Jacob had a wonderfully clear, ringing voice for an old chap of one hundred and fourscore years_ S. Leslie took this part. R. M, Mc- Kay, as King Pharaoh, as usual made n good king and sang with his old i time 'vigor. Joseph, aged 10, was . welt taken- by S. Sidthorpe, and Rev. G. Telford as Joseph in Egypt, was C, a favorite throughout, both in sing- ing and acting. The trio by Mrs. Hawkins,. Mr, Telford and Mr. Leith, as Potiphar, Joseph and Potiphar's • wife, was fine. The duets, trios and choruses were all well rendered,, and ably assisted by the bassos led :by • Jack Brown. Misses Fraser and Cole and Mrs. Kershaw, as Jacob's - wives, as well as Princess Zella and ]Hiss Alice Rogerson as Benjamin, deserve honorable mention. Finan- cially, as well as musically, it was a glorious success. Blyth Choral Soc- iety will be welcomed back. ING Al CLERIC IS NEW SYNOD HEAD Hamilton, April 20.—Rev.
