LITTLE LOCALS.
Schools closed on Friday and
teachers and scholars have hied them-
selves off to spend the vacation per-
iod "under the old roof tree."
Mr, J. A. Sutter was laid off for
as few days during the past week, be-
ing threatened with pleurisy. But we
are glad to say he is now improving,
and able to be about again.
Next Monday night will tell wheth-
er or not we shall have a municipal
election and give sone indication as
to who will be candidates for the diff-
erent offices. It hardly requires a
prophet to predict the likelihood of
an election, for the mayorality and
reeveship, anyway.
TURKEYS GOOD :PRICE.
It would appear that we might
change it a little and instead of, or
rather, in addition to, saying "Pigs
is Pigs" we might say "Turkeys is
Turkeys." Mr, D. Churchill brought
in a load of thirty-six turkeys to
Gunn, Langlois and Co. the other
day for which he received a cheque
for 3246.96, and Mr, M. McGregor,
for fourteen was paid the sum of
3111.60. .If the women on the farms
still centro] the egg and butter money
and the fowl money, which used to be
considered the proper thing on farms,
we believe, then we venture the opin-
ion that many farmers' wives com-
mand a snug little bank account at
the present. limo. .
