never thought of concealing.
"Not at present. What i; the use,
since your stepmother has forbidden
me the house?"
"Has she?" cried Lilith.
He looked at he rwith an air of
reflection.
"Yes," he said slowly. "It was
not said that I must see her ft hun-
dred times before J—asked her a
certain question. She replied ir the
negative, and gave me to understand
that I was not to hold any further
communication with you."
Lilich's fare flushed crimson.
"She never told me," she said.
"Oh, what shall we do?"
Hc could not help smiling at her
naivete.
"Do, my darling?" he answered,
and she let the endearing term ernes
with surprising unconcern, consider-
ing that she had forbidden h:m to
propose to her till they had met a
hundred times. "When the time

Till then we must circumvent her.
.Yes, certainly I shall conte to Bord-

will have to be brave—you will have

Had an impartial listener been
there, it would have amused him to
hear Haddis counselling Lilith to
pursue the line of conduct he thought
so reprehensible in his own sister.
But there was no one 'chute to )tear
and only one to see. Jack glanced
from time to time from his break-
fast to the pair, and smiled a little
grimly to himself. But he wou]d net

guard came into the buffet announc-

chair and approached them.
"I think, Miss Mansfield, yon bad

suppose you have not paid for your

"I have paid for Miss Mansfield's
breakfast," interposed Haddis; and
Jack laughed and said no snore..

She was white with agitation when

"I am afraid you are terribly tired,

she could not see hint or speak to

carefully studied the little time -table

of one-time familiar faces long since
forgotten.
It was a happy thought of the
ratepayers of U.S.S. No. 1e, 1row•elc
and Grey, when they decided Last
January to hold an Old Boys' Re-
union on July 4th. The occasion of
''his decision was 'the presence of
Wm. Doig on January 3rd at the on -
ening of school when it was expected
that as many of his old time pupil,
of years ago as possible would be
present. The weather was so In-
clement that few were able to attend.
Then it was that someone suggested
an Old Boys' Reunion and definite
arrangements were soon carried out
which culminated so succeszfullr in
one of 'the best organized and well
managed Old Boys' Reimens ever
held in any community. 1'verythint�
was provided for and the program
was carried through without a hiten.
The committee of management was
composed of Messrs, George Robert-
son, George McDonald, William
Grainger, Mrs. Jno. Brown, Miss
Sperling, along with their splendid
associate members, and are to be
congratulated on the success of this
most happy and enjoyable event in
the life of the community.
At two p.m. a parade was formed
it a neighboring farmhouse end
headed by the Mount Forest Kittie
Band, marched to 'the school grounds
which were beautifully decorated.
Revs. Pritchard and. Williams acted
as judges of the costumes and an-
nounced the following winners: best
dressed, N. Doig, Jean McDonald. M.
Doig, D. Brown, R. Me•Lennon; best
comic, Harvey and Everett Sparring;
old .fashioned, Verna Harris, M. Doig
best ealithumpian, Alex Brown. The
cos'cumes were varied and egored
highly amusing, also some very in-
structive, for it gave an insight of
the costumes worn when grand-
mothers went to school.
Following the parade a softball
tournament between girls' teams
from Cranbrook, Bluevale, Wroxeter
and Gerrie was held. Cranbrook
and Bluevale played first, Cranbrook
winning by a score of 7 to 4. Gerrie
won front Wroxeter 15 to 7, leaving
Corrie and Cranbrook for the play-
off. After a closely contested game
Gerrie won by a score of 13-12. Tho
line-up for the teams were:

ing 31 to 1. Horseshoe pitching,
which has come back as a sport, wee
keenly contested by two teams.
Messrs. Elliott and Guerney ,of Wing
ham won first and Messrs Muir and
Edgar of Wroxeter, second. While
the younger generation were enjny-
ing themselves in games the older
members were listening to a splendid
program at 'che school, consisting of
readings, violin selections, and
speeches by old residents. William
Doig, the chairman, was the teacher
50 years ago last Janpary and is
still hale and hearty. He is at pre-
sent engaged in the pursuit of law in
Port Huron, but spends his summers
with his family at the old homestead
at Kippen, Huron County. He has a
family plot in the cemetery at the
school and expects some of his old
time pupils to lay him away there a-
mong his own familiar friends in the
course of time.
Tom Ball, of Harristoct ,in giving
the history of the school, made a
happy speech, He gave the names of
teachers from its earliest days. many
familiar names being recalled. A-
mong them of fifty •years ago and
on down were E. Snell, Wm, Doig,
George McIntosh, 3. J. Denman, Geo.
Fowler and John Griffith. •
Dr. Fowler, of Teeswatlr spoke of
Canada's place in the Empire and
eaelx commmtity'tt worth as a unit in
our great land. 3. W. Sangster, of •
Listowel, spoke of tate sterling worth
of the early pioneers and the far-
reaching influence of loyal and de-
voted teachers on the youth of our
country
Dave. Savage of Listowel, was there
too and gave two of his old time
humorous selections to the satisfact-
ion of all.
Walter McCnteheon, of Hamilton,
was there out of loyalty and devot-
ion to the memory of his mother
"Miss M. McLennan", and his grand-
father, William McLairnan, whose
prayers in church and prayer meet-
ing gave no uncertain sound of his
Presbyterian faith in God.

What Makes a Town ?
A prosperous rural population which demands a community
centre where may be established business, educational, relig-
ious and entertainment facilities. Where these flourish and
are active it is safe to surmise that the people of that section
realize and appreciate the value to them of such a centre.
What Maintains it ?
The towns are largely maintained by the surrounding districts.
But the organization, the direction, and to a great measure the
up -keep. of the institutions in such towns are In the hands
of the business Interests, together with those directly and ine
directly connected therewith. Without the active business and
professional men to supervise and govern these public institu-
tion:, and undertakings no town could thrive.
Wh is airily Affected?
Every citizen either in or about a town should be concerned
in seeing to it that they do their part in carrying on any good
cause which niay be promoted, either by financial or active
support. Only in this way will any town prosper and develop
as It should. •4i
ublicity is Required
In promotion work your local paper takes the leading part.
It is over the champion of worthy causes and philanthropic
and patriotic eindertakings. But to function properly, and
fully carry out its natural prerogatives, it must in turn have the
financial support of the community it serves. When needing
advertising or printed matter always first think of
