try to the spirit that to the body was
the Highest of human callings. He
dwelt on the need of infinite patience
and of unfailing assiduity, if to this
the nurses added Christian charity,
they would be true followers of their
master "who. went about doing good'"

and at its close the friends who, with
the pupils of Sc. Anne's convent and'

the thumb and the first two fingers on
his left hand blown off and the thumb
on his right hand 'partly injured.

cattlemen of the vicinity and was well

gtoo-
short.

Bayfield,Dashwood, d

Zurich Are Miles From the
Nearest" Depot,
Bayfield, June 15-Godeii_Ii Board
of Trade has started a movement to
bring the County of Huron into the
limelight. The county has decreased
very materially in population the past
ten years, and any movement to ar-
rest the exodus or replace it should be
heartily endorsed.
It would appear that the first step '
necessary 15 to provide better railway-,
facilities, .The villages of Crediton,
Zurieli, Dashwood and Bayfield arid'
farming lands surroauding are corn -
,sly cut-off from the railways, each
being about, ten miles apart, and ten
miles from the nearest station.
Hence it would' seem that a line
touching
h
tes evillages a es
cul
to ,scent 3 would do more
Huron thau anything else.
A meeting will be held in Goderici
shortly wall the object of :laying he-'
fore the transportation companies the
advantages of a line through the sec-
tion. The businessmen of the county
are.being asked to join in any such
movements for the betterment, of
