We often hear it stated that if local merchants would sell at the same rates as mail order houses the trade would be kept at home, but a local merchant told The News -Record the other day that he had his assis- tant busy all afternoon marking goods up to the catalogue price of a large Toronto mail order house. Ho said he didn't like. to be underselling a competitor. SEPTEMBER IS TI -IE TIME. The trustees of the Public school would, draw attention to the fact that the most desirable time for primary scholars to begin attending school is at the opening of the fall term, immediately after the summer vacation. New scholars coming in at Easter cause an overcrowded condi- tion in the primary department which the board and teaching stats would like to avoid. Attention to this recommendation by parents or guar- dians would be greatly_ appreciated. AN APPRECIATIVE "READER. The following is the sort of a let- ter we like to receive and comes from a former resident of Clinton, now living in San Francisco, but who does not lose interest in the old town : "Enclosed please find P.O. money order for $2.00 to cover subscription to your paper for one year.

ONE OR THREE—WHICH 7 The county council at its January meeting appointed a committee to take up the question of a county memorial hospital and report at the June meeting. There seems to be some agitation just now for the maintenance of say three smaller hospitals at different points in the county rather than of one largo one placed at a central Point, There are already three hospitals in the county, at Goderich, Wingham and Clinton, and each is no doubt doing good work. If one large hos- pital were established it might be considered necessary to maintain also one or two of the smaller ones and the -.cost to the county would be much increased without, perhaps, adding much to the efficiency of the work done. If each of the three hospitals already established were made memorial hospitals and larger yearly grants given by the county, perhaps the best interests•of the peo- ple would be served. DONATIONS TO HOSPITAL. The ladies of the Hospital board wish to acknowledge the receipt of the following donations : A miscel- laneous , shower from Holmesville, eggs, butter, cream, vegetables, all of which were thankfully received ; two pillows! from the Summerhill ladies ; live pillows from the London Road ladies ; two pillows from Mrs, Jas.
