ROBBING FLOWER BEDS • We have heard several complaints this spring from citizensabout, hav- ing their tulip beds stripped of bloom. This is an offence and anyone caught., at it might be severely dealt with. but it is also such a mean form of thievery that it is amazing that any- one should be guilty of it. Citizens. who ,take the trouble to beautify their grounds are public benefactors; t flower bloom not onlyfor their he s b o 00 1 own enjoyment but can be enjoyed equally byeverypasserby.Chi td ren should be taught to leave flower beds alone ,and grrbwnnps should ;.know enough to` do so. ' EXPANDING BUSINESS Owing to .the expansi:ort of bus- iness Messrs. Gunn, Langlois and Co. age taking over all tha elevator build- ing ` at the G. T. R. tracks, which Messrs. W1.

This isow-important business and is ,,conducted with" so little fuss, although there are of 'nec- essity a good many feathers, that its hnpotttance. is >sonretunes over- looked. But the company pays out to the farmersofthis county a good many- thousand dollars yearly. • AMONG THE:,OHURCHES „Do not fail to ,attend the public meeting in Ontario street church this Thursday, evening, in connection with the Goderich district meeting.

"BITS PICKED UP" A young mal; in Exeter found a lady's bristle on the street -the 'other morning as he wended his way,down town. It is a puzzle how he knew what it was, as we believe bustles have not formed part of • a lady's "make-up" for a good many years. However, this was 'evidently a very "knowing" young man and he seemed toe recopnize, it at once. Ile' didn't want to carry the thing about, with hint, of course, and he didn't seed; to want to leave it reposing on the walk, so he carried it •into a .house nearby where a popular young lady happen- ed to .vesicle. • She disclaimed . all knowledge of the thing, however, and informed the young man that ladies didn't wear ern now. The matter was finally cleared. up :by ' the remem- brance that a "Spinsters' •'•Conven- tion" had been put on in one of the churches the, prededing night and it was supposed that :one of the' per ftormume.ers had' lost this part of her cos - A BANQUET The .two groups . of Canadian Girls ie Training, connected with Wesley church,entertained their -mothers to banquet' on Friday • evening last in Wesley Hall. • The tables and _dining • hall were very, daintily, decorated, the colors of :the organization .being ' carried out in the : main decorations,' while the table decorations Were in yellow, a huge bowl of daffodils forming the centre piece o1 the head- table, while at each 'plac'e was a stall' basket containing, an individual flow- er, White menu.. cards printed in blue•were at each plate also; Besides the mothers the wives, of resident min isters 'and'` the Sunday -school •teach ers of the girls •were also guests,, and, Miss -Rankin of -Stratford was the guest of. honour'.` and the :speak er of the evening ,The girls, dressed, in their white, middies with blue skirts, sat down with their guests.: The• banquet had been well `,planned.. and was, nicely served by friends of the girls.:. At the conclusion' of the baiiquet a number of toasts: were proposed That to "Our Mothers" by Miss_. Jessie Ball and responded to by Mrs. Snyder; that to -"The- Seniors" by Miss Doris Dui'ilin and responded -to by :the Owasso group -"yen", that to "The Juniors" by Miss Marjorie Lyon and responded to by the Busy.Beav- er rou "yell." s ell. Mi L' ,g P Y ss anile Nedi- ger proposed a toast to "Our •Lead- ers" which• was responded to by Miss Stone and 'Miss Ward. Miss' Winnie McMath, president of the senior group, acted as toastmistress, When the toasts were 'drunk ' Miss Rankin was galled' upon and gave an address on the work of Canadian Girls in Training at the •conclusion of which Miss Florence Rorke Moved a - vote of thanks Which was heartily endorsed. During the evening Mt. Ball, the •photographer, camedown and took 'a photo of. the .group. The ,Canadian Girls in Training is an interdenominational organization started ,about eight years ago for the, training of, girls Min twelve to•seo-' enteen, under the direction, of the'.

G, I.. T. and later on a' second one, the younger girls being::in one, group and the older ones -in ` another.. These groups are made up' for the -most, part of members of Wesley: Sunday school, but a number are .front: otJtee schools, girls" who wished to take advantage of the training. 'The organiz, ation • is ie connection with Wesley school, as the parent organization would not , recog., nine it unless it 'were sponsored by some particular 1 church. The object of the orgainzation is to develope the girls in a fourfold sense, spiti.t tinily, mentally, morally and physi- cally when the organization becomes batter known the probability is that other groups Will .be formed with a central, interdenominational e dnt7eni]nAt]bnAl e0ilnoll, tiros grouping ,together into one, and; under t1 odirection 0 P1,hori'• several churches, the girlhood and young WO-' manhood of the town, If similar aetioh is taken in connection with the boys it aught to be a goad. stove.
