$5 00 and Costs.
Thirty-five beekeepers in the coun-
ty have paid the fine of C;5 and costs
for neglecting to take out certifi-
cates of registration as required by
the Foul Brood Act. The charge was
laid against thirty-five persons, and
was dismissed in four cases.
Very Quiet.
Municipal politics have been so
very quiet in our town that one might
think the officials had forgotten all ,
about an election. Official nomina-
tion-, however, will be held on the
clay observed as Christmas, and else--.
tion—if one is necessary --on the day
observed as New Years.
Change in Collection.
Notice of a change in the law gov-
erning collection of back accounts
through the taxes is causing public
utilities commissions in more than
one Ontario 'municipality to tighten
up on delinquents, and in some in-
stances, to demand a deposit where
necessary in 'order to protect the
commission and ,the landlord. Un-
der the old legislation it was possible
to apply back His of tenants up to
three months, on the taxes to bo paid
by the landlord. This under the new
bill will be disallowed although it
will still be possible to collect from
property owners on that basis.

You, Mr. Lewin have been a :faithful
!!''miter of the gospel, never in the
:four yoans that you have been with
us has your place been vacant,' even

have felt equal to the task. You
have been ever patient with our
faults and grumblings, striving to
turn our tlaougbd,s into nobler chan-
nels. Net only have you been our
minister but a friend to each and
every one, ever ready to lend a'holp
