Terence. A. E. BRADWIN, Arnprior, formerly of Blyth, has purcbased the Comber Herald from E. A. Lancaster, who goes to Madocafter successfully publishing the Herald for some years.

A plan of these roads Will be given to every motorist when he bays a license. Signs also will be erected sear all dangerous crossings and sharp curves. OWING to the stormy day and badly drifted roads and no concerted attempt to open them up on Christmas Day the Rural Mail Couriers were unable to make their trips on Christmas. Many people on the respective routes would be so well taken up with Christmas din- ner and the like that possibly Ibe ab• sante of tbe regular call with the mail would not prove a serious matter, as a rule. THE Toledo Weekly Blade, for years one of the greatest weekly newspapers in the country, bas passed out of exist- ence. The circulation was purchased by Farm Life a monthly magazine pub- lished n a the Spencer, e r c lisped in p ° , I ud. Since Weekly Blade was founded in 1836, it has bad only four editors. The last of these, Jack Warwick, is now devoting his time to writing the editor. Tal paragraphs for which he is famous, and editorials for the Toledo Blade daily edition. The Weekly Blade cir- culation was at its peak in 1908 with a total of 255,000. Warwick has been editor of the Weekly Blade for more than 19 years, The tetters of Petrol- eum V. Nasby (12. R. Locke) appeared originally in theWeekty Blade. POSTMASTERS TROUBLES.—Postmast- ers have a cranky name, but their temp- er is often too severely tried. Different members.oE the family will ask for mail on the same day. Business men will de- lay their registered mail until the last moment, when it is difficult to get the entries mailed and the letters or pack- ages placed in the proper parcels. Pao. ple will ask for information tbat they might easily get elsewhere, Beside these there are a host of things to try the temper. Men who serve in other public offices have also their own pecu liar adnoyances, The pull together community is always uoticable for its good results. There 1s room for some improvement in our town, Let's all pull together. - ALTHOUGH Ontario's rural Public school system is to be further revised to meet the needs of the farming com- munity, such revision will not go the limit of separating rural from urban schools under a general institution. Premier G. Howard Ferguson made this statemennt Friday afternoon follow- ing a long conference with Dr, F. W. Mercbent, Director of Education, who last week returned from a study of the school system in rural Denmark, Dr. Merchant stated that .he saw many things in Denmark which could be adapted to the use of Ontario rural schools, but that owing to the essential differences in conditions the Danish school system could not be transpires ted.
