Brotherhoods of different churches
and denominations form a federation
for community and national service.

gress will be held in Washington in

tonal life of the world will be great-
ly influenced by this movement.
Without the Brotherhood the work
of the League of Nations cannot be
fully realized. The Canadian Broth-
erhood Federation has been supply-
ing War relief since the opening of

phans. The story of the movement
and its work will be fully presented

these services will bring.

Society .was somewhat unfortunate
in the selection of a spring show day
when last Thursday, April 811i, was
chosen: The weather was more like
what one would expect of that date
in March. But, as has been remark-
ed before, it takes more than unfav-
orable weather to spoil the Clinton
Spring Show. •
There was a good exhibit of both
horses and cattle, though no doubt
the number would have been larger
but for the unfavorable weather.
Old exhibitors and new ones were
both on hand and some important
sales took place during the day.
Many more people would have
been in, just for the outing, had the
day been as balmy and spring-like
as one would naturally expect the
eighth of April to bo. .
The evening brought the banquet,
which for four or five years has been
a feature of the show. The spread
was laid in the town hall and it was
a very abundant and well -served one
the Girls' Auxiliary and the Wom-
en's Institute being the caterers.
When the banquet had been thor-
oughly enjoyed an extensive toast
list was gone through, Dr. Shaw
being toastmaster. "The Ring"
brought everyone to his fent and re-
sulted in the hearty singing of the
national anthem; "Canada and The
Empire" was proposed by Magis-
trate Andrews and responded to by
Mr. Thos„ McMillan. "The Pro-
fessioiis" was proposed by Dr. Gunn
and responded to by Rev. J. E.
Hogg. "Agriculture" proposed by
County Representative S. B.
Stothers and responded to by Prof -
Wade Toole of the 0. A. C., Guelph;
"The Veterans" was proposed by
the chairman- and responded to by
Capt. (the Rev.) S. E. McKegney,
M.C.; "Huron County Spring Show"
proposed by the president, Mr.
Herbert Coxand responded to by
Mr. Janes Snell; "The Municipal-
ities" proposed by Mr. Harriston
Wiltse and 'responded to by Reeve
Trewartha of Goderieh township and
Reeve Miller of Clinton. "The
Ladies" was the last toast and was
proposed by the chairman, and elo-
quently responded to by Capt. Mc-
Kegney. Phelan's Orchestra sup-
plied music at intervals during the
evening.
The attendance of agriculturists
at the banquet was not nearly so
large as the executive of the show
would like to have seen present.
Some of the farmers say that af-
ter being in all afternoon they can-
not wait over for the banquet but
must get home to do their chores,
A number of younger men went,
home, did their evening work, or a
part of it, and hurried back to be
on hand for the banquet.
It has been suggested that the
banquet be •served earlier in future,
starting promptly, at six o'clock, and
that the speeches be fewer, thus en-
suring the whole proceedings being
over not later than nine o'clock.
The banquet was at first inaugur-
ated for the purpose of getting the
townsmen and agriculurrists togeth-
er. As it is turning out the towns-
men make . up, by • far the largest
number who attend and it is felt that
the encs for which it was started
is not being entirely accomplished.
If any change could be brought
abort which world make it easier
for a larger number of farmers to at-
tend it would be a good thing. In
the cities when a distinguished vis-
itor happens to be in town he is
often invited to address a number
of men at luncheon, Would it be
possible to have the banquet at
twelve o'clock and the speech by the
special visitor immediately after?
Of course there are entries to make,
etc. and various matters to be at-
tended to, but those interested night
get in , earlier.
Secretary McMurray says that
those who attend one banquet are al-
ways anxious to come again but he
would like to see a lot more come.

ODDFELLOWS' AT-HOME.
Lodge No. 83 I. 0. 0. F. gave
an at-home in their lodge rooms on
Tuesday evening which proved to be
very enjoyable. The members and
their wives and friends were invit-
ed and a "large number responded
to the invitation.
Cards and other games were in-
dulged in during the first part of
the evening and afterwards a, short
musical program was given, Mrs.
McMurchie and Miss Hattie Greig
and Messrs. Mitchell and Roberton
sang a quartette and Mrs. J. A.
Sutter played a violin solo, Miss M.
Torrance acting as accompanist, and
the Phelan Orchestra contributed
several selections during the even-
ing, Lunch was served at the close
and a happy hour spent over that.
Itis several years since the Odd -
fellows entertained but those who
attended Tuesday evening hope it
will not be so long again. They '
make excellent hosts,
ITS "SLICKING UP" TIME.
A visitor in Clinton a few weeks -
ago remarked that what most towns
like Clinton needed was the expend-
iture of a few thousand dollars in
paint. A great many of ±310 build
Inge in Clinton do need paint. Last
season a number of property bolders
on the front street brightened up
by an application of the brush, ad-
ding greatly to the appearance of
that section, but there is still room
for improvement.. "But paint is so
high in price" exclaims everyone.
Yes, it high, Wo ate taking that
into consideration, But those who,
can afford a bit of improvement in
their property will find that it pays
