Sunday Funerals.
Through the influence of, the
Ministerial Association"in Toronto, the
Sunday funeral has become almost t
thing of the past in that city. lu a
town or city, the custom disorganizes
the regular services of the church, and
panders to vanity by inaking.;t large
display or to a greed for gain by givin;,
an undertaker an opportunity to ad-
vertise a new outtit, 1f the minister
was consulted' with first as to the ap
propriate time for a funeral fewer o
them would be held on Sunday.—Com
all branches of banks in the association
may loan money to farriers to btly
seed this spring. Any one applicant
may obtain loans to the maximum of
8200 up to and including July 1, 1918,
on application to the branch biuik man-
ager, Loans must be repaid by Nov-

Must Give Notice.
Something will drop on those men
in glass One, although they are ex-
empted, who do not notify the Re-
gistrar 01 any change of address. In
spite of L.msiderable publicity on
the subject, exempted men have not
yet comprehended the fact that
whenever they change their place of
residence the Registrar must be no-
tified immediately. Some of the
questionairres sent nut by the Regis-
t•t•ar are coming Back on his hands
because the addresses had moved
somewhere else, and could not be
located. in all such cases it is very
probable that application will be made
to the appropriate Tribunal and the
exemptions of such men withdrawn.
Good Wort,'at Kincardine.
The Kincardine Reporter makes the
following reference to a former well
known Clinton ladya—On 'Tuesday and
Wednesday evenings, March 5th and
Lith a splendid minstrel show was given
by the ladles of the town in aid of the
Red Cross Society. . . Mrs,
Penotiere's sono, "Are You from Dixie"
was capitally rendered and full of action
in fact she was on of the lending feat
ures of the entire show and from the
rise of the curtain until its fall, she
was busy helping the laugh line. Much
credit is due Mrs. de La Penotiere for
the preparation of this very creditable
program. The proceeds for the two
evenings amounted to 8265.00 ---The
Review says: Great credit is due Mrs,
Penotiere on whoa the hulk of the
work in getting up the entertainment
fell. She worked hard and her efforts
were crowned with success.,

scutes were made by Murphy aunt
Kitty, who scored six apiece. .Amon, -
the Factory men the stars were Drip
er and McDonald. In spite of the siz
of the score, the game was fast an t
well played. It was also one of tin
cleanest games ever played in taini„n
and the referee did as good a 10!) a
could he wished. The first goal o'
the game was scored by the Factory
but atter that things kept going tui

When he was off, his place was taken
by .McDonnell, a Hensel! boy attend-

on goal, and scoring once. The

It will not be long now until those
who are going to work on the farms
will start writing on their tests. A
few of the easier examinations will
be Reid immediately before Raster, and
the remainder just after Easter. There
will be no exams for some time for
those ivho attend writing in June. \Ve
made a mistake last week when it
was stated all the students would be
writing on tests.
Quite a number of the boys and
girls front the Collegiate are going to
work on the farms this stunner, al-
though there will not likely be as
many out as list year as those who
got lower school certificates last year
cannot get middle school certificates.
Special pamphlets urging the boys
to go out and assist have been receiv-
ed and distributed among the boys.
Everybodj' who can possibly go should
go in order that the 25000 needed for
farm work may be secured,
