The -quarterly religious services.
were held in the Methodist church
on Sunday. A good attendance and
splendid services marked the day.
A recruiting meeting held in the
lecture room of the Methodist church'
on Monday evening,, was addressed by
Rev, J. A. Robinson of Clinton. and
Mr. 11'. 'Proudfoot of Goderich, The
161st quartette rendered some fine
selections.
The farmers are having quite a
hard time this spring with their
seeding as just so soon as they have a
field prepared: for the seed down
pours the raih and the work has to
be done all ober, again But it is
hoped weather conditions will im-
prove.
'rhe ,Stewart Estate delivered a
number of trees in the village for
spring planting the other day.
The school was started again on
Monday morning' after a long vaca-
tion owing to the epedemic of meas-
les.
Half a dozen or so of the officers
and men of the 1011st are about the
country looking up recruits to fill
the number of the Battalion to 1h11
strength.
Next Sunday is Young People's
1Day in llolmesville Methodist church.
A large choir of the young people

"The Hurons It Is.
The prize, of $10.00 offered by Mag-
istrate Kelly of Goderich .to the
person suggesting the most appropri-
ate name for the 1101st, Battaifon
was

County Treasurer, Goderich, who

Dr. Holmes generously handed the
$10.00 over to the War Auxiliary.
Have a Municipal Clean -Up
Day.
In many Canai,dian towns "Clean-up
Day" has become an established cus-
tom, and, without any special effort
on the Part of those interested the
work is efficiently carried out. In
litany others, however, practically
nothing has been, or is being done.
Due to the inefficiency of those re-
sponsible, indifference, numerous
municipalities are in a sadly neglect-
ed state, as evidenced on every hand.
Canadian conditions make a clean-
up in spring a necessity. Owing to
the cold weather and the abundance
of 511017, sanitary conditions are 'not
at their, best. Lanes and aliop•ways
become 'littered with garbage, ashes
and waste -paper baoky'ards, cellars
and attics , harbor refuse which are
both useless and dangerous. With the
melting of the snow this accumula-
tion is exposed to view, the thawing
of garbage permits of speedy decay,
and a very dangerous condition is at
once established,
Municipalities should provide suflic- ' Limited. "Tales of the `trappers and
lent cartage facilities for removal of i Hunters of :1914-1915" is the title
the refuse collected, furnish places of the article by this • well-known
-for its disposal or destruction, and writer who can always be depended
upon to know what he is talking
about when the writes of the creatur-
es of the wild. Frank Yeigh, an-
other well-known Canadian writer
contributes "One llye, Bunny and
the 'Tenderfoot : The Tail of a
Trail," a story that depicts some of
the idiosyncrasies of the sturdy
little pack ponies of the Mt. Robson
region. There are a dozen or so
other articles of interest before the
regular departments, w'hicn are up-
to-date and full ot interest to the
lover of out-of-door sports, whose
equipment includes rod, gun, dog or
trap.
Not Very Patriotic.
(From Luekliow Sentinel.)
A,Wslkerton paper tells of a school
trustee in (Kincardine township, who,
because the teacher had at ono :time
taken a half-day oil, and at anoth-
er time, owing to bad roads, lost a
half-day while assisting in entertain—
meats given in the interests of the
Red Cross rund, called ata indigna-
tion meeting of the School Board,
with a view to seeing what should 11e

This chap is on a level with the
farmer, somewhere near ' Lueknow,
who recently entered a drug store to
purchase a quantity of formalin, but
declared he would not hate it if there
had to be a war tax stamp put on
the bottle. "He wasn't going to pay
no war tax," 11e said.
Fortunately, this contemptable ele-
ni'ent, willing to enjoy all the advan-
tages of Canadian freedom, bought
with the blood and the money! of
others, begrudging t0, pay even a
penny'* or maize the least sacrifice, is
not large.: The pith is they cannot
