TIMELY ADVICE.
Rev, Tr. McShane has been 'tell--
ing the boys of St. Patrick's school
?totrtreal, that the holidays should

A'HEAVY FINE
FOR THE GUILTY ONE
Many people do not seem to he
aware that the fine for selling rotten
or bad eggs to stores or produce men
is a heavy one. The minimum fine is
$200 and by reports, the law will be
enforced to the full extent. People do
not seem to know that eggs, when
brought to the stores, are kept in Sep
ate lots and if any bad ones are among
them, the offender is easily found out

From the Chicago "Tribune."

We love them not; we hate them not,
We love a hundred, we hate but one;
Of all the victuals in pot or plate,
There's only one that we loathe and
hate.
We love a hundred, we hate but one,
And that web hate till our race is

Bread Pudding!

you ail,
It casts a gloom and it casts a
By what so name they mark
You take one taste and you
guess.
Come, let us stand in the Wailing Place
A vow to register, face to face;
We will never forego our hate
Of that tasteless fodder we execrate—

Dominion Day
Celebrations
Godericle
Dominion' Day was celebueted ir..
Goderich by one of the biggest
days, of sports'' that the town tris
had for years. The morning was'
taken up with' children's sports
and trade procession. The Gond
d
Roads Machinery xYCo
m anY
had an
immense \\ display having some ten
teams hauling different machines.
Thos Paget Crrain Door Company
showed the first auto truck that
wan 'turned( Out to Goderich, that
firm having taken up that line.
The afternoon sports were held at
thy fair grounds.
Goderich defeated Kincardine
a•t I feast game of baseball by five
ilo 'two,
The' lacrosse. match between the
public schools was won by Victoria
Sch oo'1.
A fo'otbali match( between the
town league teams' was won by the
Big: Mill team.
The 33rd Reeiment Band supplied
mussc and, gave a concert en the
square in the evening.
Wingham, July 1.—The Dominion Day
celebration here drew one of the biggest
crowds the town or Victoria Park has had
for some years. Early in the morning
passengerladen vehicles were coming in a
constant stream; also the trains, both C.
P. R. and G. T. R., unloaded quite a
number of people. The only disappoint
merit for the visitors was that the ball
oon flights of Madam De Vonda could
not be seen as the feminine aeronaut was
in a wreck in Chicago. She sent word to
Commitee.
In spite of all, the weather was ex
cellent and a grandstand which would
seat about 1,000 people was well patron
ized by the fans at Victoria Park, in
which games and other spectacles were
put on.
The first was a grand parade of school
children, fire brigade, decorated automo
biles, calathumpians and bands—the
Kincardine Pipers and Citizens' Brass
Band.
The Clinton Wingham baseball game
for the championship of Huron County
in the forenoon, and in the afternoon a
a good clean game of lacrosse between
the Huron Oaks (Wingham) and the Six
Nation Indians (Brantford ' Reserve)
were excitingbaby ,tin events. A show in
front of the grandstand was immensely
Y
enjoyed in the afternoon
Another game of baseball, Wingham
vs. Clinton, and a football game between
Listowel and Wingham, were played in
the afternoon. Excellent music was giv
en by both the Kincardine and Wingham
bands.
In the evening an interesting exhibi
tion of native dancing by Indians of
the Onondaga tribe in full costume' dis
playing the "war dance" and the "Ham
Ham" was much appreciated, after
which a splendid display of fire works
was enjoyed. The pyrotechnics were
the finest ever seen in this vicinity.
There were special police on duty un
der Chief Geo. Allen, but there were no
disturbances to worry them. Much
credit is due to these gentlemen of the
committee, President L. Kennedy; man
ager, Ald. F. L. Binkley, andsecretary
treasurer, W. H. Gourney.
Patriotism was the ruling spirit, and
the spirit ran high. Inspiring patriotic
choruses were rendered by a choir of
sixty children—all children of soldiers
who have gone to the front or have en
listed for service.
The results of competitions were as
follows:
Parade features—Auto decorated -1,
Dr. A. J. Ross; 2, Dr. Ford, V. S.; 3,
W. A. Currie.
Bicycles decorated -1, Cecil Markley;
2, Percy Markley.

resenting "Kaiser Bill, killed in action");
2, W. J. Boyce, commedian.

In the sporting features, Wingham
came out mostly triumphant. The home
team beat Clinton in baseball by 8 to 5
(first game), Wingham beat the Brant
ford Indians at lacrosse ,by 15 to 5. Lis
