SOME OLD HOMES IN CLINTON Have you ever stopped to consider the number of families who. hohave v oc- cupied the same home for a great many years? There 'are many such 'homes in Clinton end we are giving a few instances of them below. In the. year 1830' the late` Henry Ransford 'befit his horde on the Hay- field 'river near .Stapleton, : This house has been the' home of .sone member of the elanaford family ever since, the present odcapant being Mr. John Ransford. It is a typical old English home. :The house' of Mr. John Gibbings was built by his father, the Iate Jonas Gi+bbing's, one of the early pioneers, and this borne has !been occupied by the Gibbings'°family ever since. The house of the'Pfisses"Bay was built iby their father!, the late Andrew Bay, who was the county engineer for many years alterthe county of Huron became a separate county. Perhaps the oldest public 'building in Clinton "which has been used con- tinuously is the ,St, Paul's Anglican Church. This was built in 1858,.par- tially destroyed in 1864 and rebuilt in 'that : year. IT WAS A NOVEL EXPERIENCE 1 A Mr. Kerr from Virginia was a visi- toe in town last week. Although it is over forty years since Mr. Kerr was in Clinton last,, he remembers one incident that happened while here quite plainly. It seems that he was a young lad living near Brussels and it so, happened that one of his neigh- bours had married' a'young ,girl whose home was in Goderich township. Now the parents of this young wife de, sided to give the happy young'cou- ple the ever welcome present of a cow., Calling on young'Kerr for help they offered hint the munificent sum.oe one. dollar to . chive the cow ,.from Gode- rich ode rich township ;to Brussels. Young Kerr deoided • that thiswould indeed make a nice little walk, ,eo the next meaning, he started out on foot brave- ly leading the cow, deciding to go to Brusselsi v a Wingham and led Clinton. For the first ; two br three miles things went along splendidly, the cow dragging Mi. Ketx along a r at a td P rate. The next few' miles were not so enjoyable, as Mr. ;I{err had to urge the cow. At the outskirts of Clinton he..per ceived a piece of car- pet left, out; to air by some careful and 'thrifty housewife. Tie appro- priated this, made a paddle of it and rode the cow to Windham, bad a rest, re -mounted and reached 'Brus- -sets in record time. AMONG THE CHURCHES The union services of the Presby- terian and Wesley churches will be held in the Wesley church, text Suns day morning. Rev. Mr; Holmes will preach on "Is the Young; Mate Safe?"

Last Sunday morning at the Wesley church, Dr. 'Chowen, the new Superintendent" of the Wesley' Methodist ,Sunday school, drew atten- tion to the fact that •moth attention. should be paid to the League of Na- tions among the churches, Mr. Hoboes sermon was very aptly chosen under the headed "What the 'Church should Teach the Nation" Ontario Street Church On Tuesday afternoon a thimble tea was hold on the lawns of the Ontario street parsonage, under the auspices of the Missionary Society, The tea was a great success, there being •a crowd of between forty and fifty present and a very enjoyable af- ternoon was spent, the minister and his wife :being very efficient at en- tertaining. Sewing and quilting was done for the coating bazaar, and"re- freshments of bread and butter and tea and cake were served, St. Paul's Church Mi'. W. H.

Dr.. Gaudier the other day, he made the foilowdng. ,'etaement to the News -Record: "It has been reported to me by n embaars of the school .board teat 1 have been quoted as not being in sym pathy with the work of the school nurse. This has evidently occurred through misunderstanding." While. there' may + be e difference' in diagnosis in a few cases, that does not on any way reflect on the efficiency of r the nurse, a` If she detects disease and reports it her work is efficient, and thisshe has done, I am glad to have this opportunity of expressing my full sympathy with, and ,apprecia- tion of school nurses in general .and our own nurse in particular."
