In July's issue of The Canadian

of Mr. .7. B. Hoover of Guelph, a
former: esteemed citizen 01 Clinton,
who was recently 'elected chairman

that he will make a very efficient

few weeks at present and one is
absent doing summer missionary.
work. There are, therefore, hut two
in' town. But we have a superan-
nuated Methodist minister now resi-
dent and a retired Presbyterian min-
ister, Rev. Dr. Stewart, visiting
here, and the S. A. officers are at
their post so the spiritual welfare
of the town should not stiffer.
A NEAR ACCIDENT.
A young married man of town,
who uses a motorcycle because It
gets him about quickly and he has
therefore more time to spend on his
really fine garden, met with a
slight accident yesterday morning as
Ile was hurrying down town to work.
Coming in contact with a big black
dog, which was no doubt tired after
such a dose of dog day boat as
we've been enduring and wasn't very
spry in getting out of the way, the
young man was thrown from his
motorcycle. Happily neither matt
nor dog was much injured except
that both were more or less shaken
as to dignity.
