The Chautauqua sustained its high reputation right to the end during its four• -day course in Clinton, the last two days, Thursday and Friday, being eens'dered by many the best days of the four. The Wagnerian Quartet, which fur- nished the musical program on Thursday afteroon and also a per- lude at the evening entertainment, delighted the audience at each ap- pearance as also did Miss Cooper, so- loist, who was with them, In the ev- ening, Mr. W. H. Stout, president of the International Chautauqua and Lyceum Association, gave his inter- esting lecture, "Seeing Life Whole," • On Friday afternoon the Old Song Singers gave their charming concert and in the evening a generous prelude, delighting the audience with their rendering of old, familiar songs and their quaint old costumes, prior to the lecture by the Rev. Robert Nor- wood, D. D., rector of St. Paul's church, Philadelphia, a Canadian writer and poet whose work is not well' enough known among the Can- adian people., He was a little late arriving as he hacl gone to London to fetch his wife and was somewhat de- layed. During the interval Mr. Alber, general manager of the Dominion Chautauqua Movement, gave a short address, explaining the origin and growth of the movement, and an- nounced that as arrangements had been made for a Chautauqua again next year he hoped to become better and better acquainted with the people of Clinton and vicinity. Dr. Norwood's address was entit- led "The Dominion and its Destiny," his subject was well handled and he was listened to with much attention, although the hour was late before he finished. ro 9 8 * Clinton's Chautauqua was a great success, Every number given during the whole course was appreciated and the interest grew as the time wont on, u :a 9 ,a The people from the surrounding vicinity proved their interest in en- .tertainments of a high order by their attendance, at almost every session, although the season is a busy one on the farms. a a, ,u::n "You will not need to ask us to buy tickets next year," was the wel- come remark heard on all sides by the members of the Girls' Auxiliary 9n the last evening of the Chautau- qua. Hronh The Collegiate grounds proved to' be a most suitable place for the pitching of the Chautauqua tent. The surroundings were pleasant and the Chautauqua being an educational movetent,.it is most fitting that the 'sessions should be held in the envi- rons of the highest educational in- stitution of the town. It was a little to one side of the town but that could not be helped as there is- no suitable place nearer the centre. ,x 4: 4.

HOW ABOUT THIS? "We are looking now for outside competition" remarked Capt. Pax - man, on Wednesday morning in dis- cussing Tuesday evening's ball game when his Champions won from the Firemen, among whom were a um- ber of old and new -time ball players. "There's nothing in this town can beat us," The News-Record"is in- formed on good authority, however, that the "Roadsweepers" a team of slim but ambitious youths, challenged the Champion's to a game but were turned down. It may be that the said Champions are students of Bib- lical history and having read the story of David and Goliath are not looking for defeat at the hands of mere youths. Be that as it may the youths are disappointed, their young enthusiasm running high, LAYMEN MEET IN CLINTON. A meeting of the Goderich Dis- trict committee for the consideration of the question of more adequate salaries for Methodist ministers was held in Wesley church yesterday af- ternoon, all charges with the ex- ception of Bayfield and Blyth being represented. Mr. A. T. Cooper gave a report of the meeting of the Con- ference Committee held in London last week. It is the desire of the lay committee in charge of this mat- ter to place the minimum salary for rural ministers at $1500 per year plus $150 for horse feed, $1800 for towns of 2000 and $2000 for cities. The delegates present seemed quite optimistic regarding the outcome. At the conclusion of this meeting a com- mittee to consider the readjustment of the district met for a short con- ference and will report at the Octo- ber meeting of the district. CURRELL , :SHIPLEY NUPTIALS. The marriage took place at twelve - fifteen Saturday in the Ontario street church of M. E. Pretoria (Pearl), youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Shipley, and Mr. Lloyd W. Currell, son of Mr. and Mrs. E. Cur- rell of Goderich.

IIer niece, Miss Dorothy Levis, was maid -of -honour wearing a. pretty frock of white silk mull with white picture flat trimmed with baby plumes and carried Sweet- heart roses, Columbia rbses, Gypso- lhilia and ferns. ' The ceremony was performed in the presence of a large number of guests and others, who •gathered in the church to witness the ceremony, . by the Rev. S. Anderson, pastor of the church. The weeding music was played by. Mrs. J. W. Treleaven' and during the signing of the register, Mr. J. E. Doherty sang `Beloved." Mn Harold Turner, the bride's cou- sin, and Mr. Wm. Walters of London, cousin of the groom, acted as ushers. At the conclusion of the ceremony the bridal party and guests, number- ing about seventy-five, drove to the home of the bride's parents, Ratten- bury street, where the wedding lun- cheon was served, the dining room being decorated in pink and white, At the conlusion of the feast toasts were proposed and several speeches made during wl ich the bride had ,to slip away and ange her chess, Mr. and Mrs. Curr ll left on the after-• noon t forraintit Future hone at mix Oshawa, where the groomholds a responsible position in the office of the McLaughlin Motor Worts. • The bride was the recipient of very many beautiful and useful gifts.

She has been employed for some time in the office of he t t Clinton Knitting Co. The groom is al- so known to many here, having tak- en a course in the Sehool of Commerce, He served hi Trance during the war, Clinton friend's extend hearty good wishes to the .young couple for a happy married life together, ,_,•, WHERE IS - HD? TTas Clinton got a weeds inspec- tor? If so we would suggest that he 'takea walk down Mary stxeot . Tho north side of it nearest the postoffice is about as shaggy a bit of. weed- land as one would want to see, espec- ially in a generally neat and well kept town. like Clinton. It is not fair to '• the residents of that thorou 4tforo, most of whom KWeep their lawifs care- fully, fully, to allow weeds to grow and flourish as these particular ones are doing. A man with a good sharp sythe for half an hour would greatly improve the appearance of the street. A TRAGIC DEATH.. Clinton citizens will regret to learn of the tragic death of George Panter, of Winona, formerly of Clin- ton. Mr, Patter was employed by the E. . D, Smith Nursery and while spraying trees .on July 6th bis team took fright atsomething, g s Hell ing, ran away with him and he was so severely in. jurecl that he died on the way to the hospital. His wife and a small fam- ily survive. Mr. Panter was for a time employ- ed with Mr, C. B. Middleton of God- erich township but when war broke out he enlisted and his family resided in town while he was overseas. He was a veteran of the South African war also. Those who knew -the fam- ily here will deeply regret his untime- ly end. He was forty-seven years of age, t • CLINTON'S CELEBRATION. • Clinton intends having a celebra- tion on August the second, which has been proclaimed civic holiday. Committees have been appointed and arrangements are being made for liaving.a first class celebration, When Clinton undertakes a matter of this kind •there is always some- thing doing and this will be no ex- ception., _ The town band will, of course, as- sist in 'the celebration and it is ex- pected the Macdonald entertainers of London will also be present. There will be a parade, League baseball game between Zurich and Cinton and races and games in the morning and a program of sports in the afternoon. It is expected also that Premier Drury or some member of the Government will be present to give an address. Two years ago we would have been happy to be able to celebrate peace, we'll prove that the "thrill" has not all died out even yet. All roads will lead into Clinton on August and. You alight just as well come with the crowd. PROSPECTS NEVER BETTER. According to reports from every quarter, crops in Western Ontario, and in Huron County, -have never giv- en better promise than this year. The hay, which early in the season looked like almost a complete failure, has turned out not a bad crop at all and in some cases is good. The saving of it has been rather uncertain but it is being gathered and is a much better yield than it promised in June. Fall wheat is excellent as are all spring crops. Roots, also, promise well and fruit for the most part is plentiful. The apple crop will be Iarge. Mr. D. Cantelon the other day ordered 8000 barrels for use in this vicinity. Po- tatoes never looked better and while the•acreage is less titan last year ow- ing to the scarcity and price of seed in the spring the yield, unless a late blight strikes them, ought to be normal or over. In fact the pros- pects for a good crop of almost ev- erything for the sustenance of man and beast in this vicinity at any rate is good ad there ought to be plenty for the needs of' -all and a good sur- plus to send out to places less fa- voured by nature. LITTLE LOCALS. Mr. J. Lovett has put in a stock of mens' and boys' shoes in connection with ,his repairing business. Mr, Fred Livermore has resigned his position of might -watchman at the piano factory after ten years' serviee. We understand he• has taken a position with Memel.

G.

Paxman's Champions and nine members of the fire r br,igade played da game of ball on Tuesday evening, the former winning in a score of 18-16 with one inning to play. It was evi- dently "some game" too. "What were the outstanding• features of the game?" asked .The News -Record, who was too hungry to put off sup- per to watch it. "They were all 'out- standing' was the reply. We do not know just what that meant but take it that those who were present got the worth of their money, so to speak, though these games are run on the "free", The line-up was as follows: Fireman pitcher, .L E. Cook, catcher, J. E. Johnson, bases, Dick= son, McEwan, Tasker, short stop, C. Draper, field, Chief Glazier, Cudmore, 'Kennedy. Champions—pitcher, B. Herr, catcher, J. L.
