Deputation from 2nd line, with a petition of 00 names, asked fol' change of location of what is known. es the Stone.sohn01 house iron bridge from peasant site to a point opposite alderoad. a short distance Least. Or- iginal bridge stood at latter place un - (111879 when it was changed to short- en span and thought to be better site. Present bridge was erected in. 1900. A. legal tilt ensued in which C. Carp bell entered suit againstTownslup Council for flooding part of his farrn on account of the current ofriver and piling rip of ice being charged against the bridge and approach. Judgment went against township who were com- manded to put a 10 foot culvert through and raise roadway Easterly. Nothing has been done yet as Council is referring the case to the Advisory Board, who may. have a solution. Span of present bridge 1s only 115 feet but the new bridge would require to be about 140 feet and the estimated cost of the proposed work would be well up to 50,000. About 4e feet of water cover's the roadway on North hend•of river at freshet periods, The situation is a peculiarly difficult one to decide what is hest to do for the future, Some have suggested that the township purchase the portion of the Campbell farm submerged at flood tide as one way out. The future of this much discussed bridge will be watched with no small interest. Mfr.

The pr0ceediegs opened with a celebration of the Holy Com- munion, the Rev. S. S. Hardy, Gode- rich being the celebrant, assisted by Rev 0. Llewellyn Bilkey. At 11 o'clock the Women's Auxiliary of the Deanery met in the church and the Deanery Chapter in the vestry, the former being presided over by Mrs. A. A. Tramper, and the latter by Rev, S. 8 Hardy, rural Dean of Hur- on, Miss I. L. Isaac, Missionary on furlough from Japan gave an interest- ing anti inatt'uetive address on bee work there, At the afternoon session Rev. W. 13. Hawkins, of 1317111 spoke on the Huron College Jubilee Campaign, which is to be launched next year, tbe object nf which is to raise the sum of $160,000 as an endowment fund. Rev. H. W. Snell of Wingham set forth the advantages offered by the Dioce- etan Summer School to be held next month at Aima College, St. Thomas, The Rev. Canon Vernon, D. C. L., the Secretary of the Social Service Coun- cil of the Church of England in Can- ada, followed with a most interesting survey of its work. He stated there were there three definitions of Social Service. (1st) it is applied Chtistian- ity, (2nd) it is the Gospel in action, (3rd) it is the science and art of human friendship. It has a three -fold work to do, based upon the example of Christ, namely preaching, teaching and doing good. To accomplish this it must have efficiency, training and sympathy, Although the Couneil is still iv its infancy it has already un- dertaken work in the following de- partments ;- 1, Literature and Publicity : 2, Welcome and Welfare of Newcomers ; 8, Family life and Social Relations ; 4, Child Welfare ; 5, Christianity and Industrial Relationship ; 0, Naval and Military Service. Captain the Rev. C. H. Buckland outlinedthe e Social n 'Service Mein ac- complished by the Province of On- tario, emphasizing especially the Mother's Allowance Act, the Juvenile Courts and the Industrial Schools. At 7.80 p. m. there was a service in the church conducted by the Rev, C. Llewelly Bilkey, assisted by Rev, F. L Lewin, Brussels. The sermon was delivered by Rev. Canon Vernon, who took as his text Psalm 24, Verse 7, "Lift up your Heads, 0 Ye Gates, and be Ye Lift up Te Everlasting Doors, and the King nf Glory Shall Coyne in." Christ's Ascension he de- clared, was the coronation and en. thronement of the Victor over death and the grave. It typified the enter- ing of Christ into all the kingdoms of this world and His ultimate victory over them, let—He was entering the kingdom of the regiens of the shadow of death, k, e,, heathenism, 2nd—He was entering the kingdon of the mind of than,—the kingdom of all educe, tion. Tba fundamental purpose of all knowledge is to open the into to Christ. `Ve live in an age of wonder- ful developetoent of science in ail de- pattments.

Alt the 10251000 of the Deanery were unusually well attended, The Deanery will meet next Fall at Wing - ham, feishauer Cantata The ptesentatiou of the fine sacred Cantata Belshazzar, by the 50 mem- bers of Blyth Churai Society, in the Opera House here elicited well deserv- ed and unstinted praise. It was a credit to the individual member of the chotus, an undoubted compliment to the various soloists who carried their onerous parts with a freedom and ability that was a real pleasure to the packed house, Blyth should be proud of their tal- ent, both vocal and instrumental, ready to back up the worthy organi- zation and Rev. G. Telford is doing a work as Director that should be far- reaching in its effect, both at home and abroad. The chorus showed care. ful naming and well balanced parte, with clear enunciation, effective ges- ture and dress. and in the limited stage area was well set, The 5 acts were well sustained and improved in their climax instead of lagging as is sometimes the case, Cantata is a heavy one and the talent , showed ambition of high class to em ter upon its rehearsal and carry it through to such a successful issue. Briquets would have been in order to superior work of Miss Sara Milne, Mrs, Kneeshaw, Mlatgaret Hawkins, Rev. Mr. Telford, R. M. McKay, Geo, Leith, S. A.

Financial proceeds were 5100.(x). At the close of the Cantata a tasty lunch was served the talent and they proved willing to be wooed back to modern life after their journey among the notables of the far and historic East. Well done Blyth, flume again, East Wawanosh Council Council met May 27th, as a Court of Revision on Assessment roll. All the members present. Only appeal con- sidered was that of Jas.

A number of ratepayers from Cons, 8 and 9 were present stating that they weteof the opinion that the Council should not have had the road from Bolgrave West to Division line re- moved from the iest of designated roads under the Good Roads System and placed again as an ordinary town- ship road, apparently wanting to have the road designated again its a County road. Council however thought otherwise .,and refused to change their attitute on this matter. Representatives from the Satayer• Massey 00, waited on Council in ref- erence to ef-erenceto the sale of road machinery.

At this point the wrathful liquorite paused long enough for the temper anee woman to interject "But the figures are against you. Our two wettest Provinces—B. C. and P.

A NOTA»LIt CONVERT Speaking of England reminds one of Lloyd George. He came to this Con- tinentprejudiced against our legisla- tion. Asked on his return home— "Who got the most out of the war 8" Hisanswer was—"The United States of Amevica. They got Pro- hibition out of 10." Lloyd George is long-headed. He saw that the lurid tales of crime and business depression following its the wake of the Volstead Act, that had been given prominence in the British press, had no foundation in fact. He became convinced that the nation that wastes huudreds of,millione in poisoning its citizens and paraliziug its industries with alcohol, cannot compete with the nation that bane it, Watch Lloyd George.

Picture a little clearing at the side of the railway track in the heart of North Ontario. All about are the hilly foreata of Jack -pine, hemlock and fiaming yellow poplar. A brilliant autumn sun falls on lake and forest and rocky cliff and in the centre is a little patch of cleared ground surrounding a tine log cabin. At 1te door a woman and three or tour sturdy children are grouped. They are listening. From behind the bilis again comes the exultant whistle of a locomotive, and in a few moments the train sweeps into view. It flashee past drawn by an engine of the latest type such as engineers talk of with joy, and including six plum - colored coaches, steel built from end to end. Their varnished sides reffeot the warm autumn sun, Bright brass trimmings and polished windows glisten as the train sweeps along its narrow path towards the West a thing of pride and power, The children standing beside the log cabin are silent; each holds a tiny flag that carries to the train a message of greeting, for David, Lloyd George 18 positing by. The little Welshman of humble origin, the war -time Prime Minister of Imperial )3rltale is on his way from Toronto to Winnipeg and all along the railroad the people tome down to see him pegs, It was a wonderful trip. Heralded by newspaper front pages and by years of power, the man who led half a world in war, moved serosa Ontario through Scene after scene such as this which has been eketebed above, 'What a country, what a 'wonderful country! ry! r I t was Lloyd George who spoke. Seated in the drawing' room of the private ear at the end of the train he gazed over the eountlese lakes and endless fereste that flew past. About bim were one or two Officials of the railway that carried him en his Way, and a large number of tows ap er representatives for whom accom- modation modation was provided' on the train. It was the time of the morning interview, when the Drees men gathered to ask him questions bearing on the news 0f the day which had tome . to the train by radl.0 from all parte at tate world, but mostly (ram Europe, and to every question came the Lloyd George 'newer, quick and to the point—no evasion, even when the tiuestfon was a little personal, as now and then it might be. But the questions were meetly relevant to the great Issues of the day. The twenty odd newspaper people from Great Britain, Vatted States and Canada werethe pick of "the game." They and the moving picture men, the. newspaper reporters of the camera, were a "star" crowd, and millions of people had from them a daily report of what Lloyd George Bald, did and looked like during bis flying trip over the Canadian Pacific line, • The baggage car, like all the Teat, wire of steel, The dining car was in command of "Jimmie" Watson, the man who looked after the Prince of Wales' menu when he made his first trip across' Canada, There was an all steel standard sleeper and two of the ten -comport- meet care that are becoming more and more popular as they are better known. Behind them rode Lloyd George's private car. Both American and British cor- respondents bad seen nothing better than this train. In some reepects they had not seen their equal and they were loud in their praises. When they were told it was regular equipment such se rune on the "Trans- Canada" they wero all amazement. Deme Lloyd George and Miss Megan W020 110 less appreciative than was their famous husband and father. They went through the train and examined it all, and the kitchen of the dining ear was of, the most especial interest tothe ladles. After having seen the comfort of the coo- partment care, Idiss'Megan appropriated one of the coo- partmeuts for her own use At the conclusion of the trip Mr. Lloyd George expressed his admiration and gratitude to the Canadian Pacific ilatkway for the way he and his family bad been taken caro of while passing over the line, As far est air Fort William 3, ; fnly, General l Manager Canadian Pacific lines, accompanied the train, while A.

Shipments of grain from the Grande Prairie and Peace River diatricts over the Edmonton, Dun- vegan and British Columbia Rail- way during the past season have to- talled 2,471,000 bushels of wheat and 1,700,500 bushels of other grains, Tie longest solid train of red cedar edge e grain shingles ever 1 hauled acrosthe continent left, Vancouver, B.C., recently for Ch1. cago and the Eastern States. Sev- eral other long trains of this prod- uct will be shipped in the near fu- ture by the Hunting Merritt Lum- ber Company, by'whom the consign- ment was forwarded. A despatch recently sent from London states that Professor Car- lyle, of the E. P. ranch, is sailing for Canada shortly, taking back with him a number of brood mares and other, stock for the ranch. The Prince of Wales continues to evince the deepest interest in all the do- ings of the ranch and keeps in close touch with things there. Approximately the same acreage as produced the West's bumper crop last year will be under cults- + ration this season. The outlook now is that over 14,000,000 acres of land will be ready for seed under generally favorable conditions. The estimated acreage to be seeded this year! by provinces, is as follows: Manitoba, 4,450,400; Saskatchewan, 9,354,190; Alberta, 3,472,315: The value of boots and shoes ex- ported by Canada during the year ended March, 1924, more than dou- bled the value of Canadian boots and shoes bought by other countries during thepreceding year. Last year the exportations were valued at $304,913, and for the preceding year at $130,034. The United States was the chief buyer, taking 2,22? pairs, with Japan second, tak- ing 1,628 pairs.
