WILD,GEESE GALORE.
Mn. Albert A. Hill, formerly of
Clinton but now accountant for the
Doherty Piano and Organ, Company
at Winnipeg, spent a few days recent-
ly among the wild goose haunts near
Deloraine, Man,, and the following
are extracts from a :tetter to his
father 'in town in wliiuli he tells of
some of his experiences :
"I arrived in Deloraine at four in
the afternoon and soon stet a noted
wild goose hunter named "Cap" Kell-
er, who had a shack down on the lake
shore. 'We arranged to go together
but as' he did not show up l occupied
the shade alone. I took a nice little
25-35 Savage rifle with ire from Win-
nipeg but foolishly following other ad-
vice left it at the hotel, at Deloraine.
Driving down in the dusk of the even-
ing I saw a huge wolfe and how I

"If you have as good a memory
for dates as l' ,have," said Mr. John
Ransfdrd to l'he News -Record on
Monday; "you r,11 'recollect that
just two 'years,ago the weather was.
preulsely such as we are enjoying to-
day and thatthe thirteenth of May
five years ago was the dateofttae
fire which destroyed the foundry and
fife Rattenbury House."
THOSE SCI300L PHOTOS.
The photos of the pupils of the
Model school, made by our genial ar-
tist, Mr. Fink, have been much ad-
mired. There are two, the girls be-
ing in one group •and tlie boys in an-
other with ,teachers and several of
the trustees in each. They are , ex-

seemed to be agreed that the first

OLD ONTARIO'S SMILING.
The weather this spring has seem-
ed backward, that is there has been
a lack of the genial sunshine that
we usually look for in later April
and early.May, but it has suitedthe
farmers and, though other classes
may put on more airs, our, rural fri-
ends are,' when all's said and done,
the backbone of, the country. The
soil has worked up Inst fine and the

Miss Lilltie Edmestot of Maple

"We do not want to MISS a single
