WE LIICE THE NEWS
The News -Record is always grate-
ful when its friends bring in, send
in or telephone in news. The more
news we have the better we are
Pleased and it is obvious that no one
person can gather all the news of
a community. So when our friends
assist uA they win our sincere thanks
and gratitude.
But the one thing we do not like is
for someone to come or send in some
item of news, which we should have
been pleased to have Wednesday
morning, on Thursday afternoon or
Friday morning to be inserted the
following week. Events which oc-
cur Thursday afternoon have to be
reported the following week, for we
go to press in the morning, but all
events happening between that and
the • following Thursday morning
should go into the current issue.
"Oh, it will do next week," is a fre-
quent phrase with these "late" peo-
ple, But that never appeals t0 us.
We want news while it is news.
Another matter which gives us a
good deal of trouble from time to
time is the fact that many people
who wish happenings taking place
on Friday or Saturday reported, wait
perhaps until the following Wed-
nesday afternoon to send them in.
If we say anything about it they will
ask, innocently: "Why, has the pa-
per been printed?" No, the paper
may not be printed, but perhaps the
side in which this story would go is,
for we run off one side Wednesday,
But if everything we intend publish-
ing had to be put in type Wednesday
afternoon, we should not go to press
Thursday at all.
AS soon as an event happens is a
good time to report it. If you do
not wish the trouble of writing it up,
give us the facts and we shall put
them together. Tell us over the
telephone, but do it right away, give
us a chance to get in all the news as
soon as possible after it happens. holiday. School opens Tuesday

GOING T� THE FAIR
A girl and a boy from Clinton will
visit the Canadian National Exhibi-
tion this year as guests of the Wrig-
ley people in their Anniversary Plan
of taking 600 boys and girls to the
Ex.
The wont of choosing the boys and
girls from each municipality was left
to the mayor, or a committee of his
appointing. Mayor Trewartha turn-
ed over the choice to a committee of
teachers, from the Public school and
Collegiate, and they named Jack
West of the Public school, aged
twelve, and Violet Fremlin of the
Collegiate, aged thirteen.
These children will be entertained
while in Toronto and looked after
by competent people, men and wo-
men, who will be in constant atten-
dance, The Wrigley Company gives
as its reasons for planning this ev-
ent a desire to give 500 deserving
children a chance to see the great
educational features of the Canadian
National; to see some of the sport
events, and to have a lot of fun.
Railway transportation, including
meals and berths, as required, to,
gether with badges, will be forward-
ed to the mayor on his sending in
the names of those chosen. The last
two days of the Exhibition has been
chosen for this visit.
Mr. Denton Massey has agreed to
act as master of ceremonies while
the children are in the city and ar-
rangements have been made for pro-
per chaperonage and care of the chit,
nren from the time they leave home
until they return.

THE BAND'S BIG NIGHT
Thursday evening last was the date
of the Kiltie Band's annual? concert
and street dance, and proved a fine
success, the evening being an ideal
one for an outdoor, event,
The music on this occasion was
furnished by the C. N. R. Band,
Stratford, under the direction of
Leader Bell, and a very enjoyable
program was given. The band men -
pied a place on the postoffice square
and a platform was placed at the
end of this plot and fenced off for
dancing. A. portion of the street
was roped off, also, making a safe
place for those wishing to gather
around to listen to the band and
watch the dancers. Mr. J. M. El-
liott kindly allowed the use of his
private driveway, connecting Vie•
toric with James street, so that
there was little inconvenience to
motorists,
A very large crowd gathered for
the concert, many coining from sur-
rounding towns and the program was
well worth hearing. Many also in,,
dulged in tripping the light fantastic
until a late hour.
As usual the band hada number ok
prizes which were drawn for, and
some ticket holders got as many as
four prizes. There were over ninety
in all, varying in uesfulness and val,
ue.
HERE'S INTE•RPRISE
A lady who t'ecently moved frone
another city to Ottawa tells of the
way they look after new corners in
the Capital. Shortly after moving in-
to her new home she had a call from
a lady who described herself as the
city's hostess. She had a letter of
welcome from the mayor, which she
presented to the newcomer, also r,'
loaf of bread from 7a. local baker; a
couple of theatre tickets from one
of the theatres; an invitation from a
down town restaurant to a free noon
meal; a ticket entitling her to 81
worth of latmdry work at a certain
laundry; another offering a 60c re-
duction on coal purchased; a box et
soap from a druggist and an offer
of 20 per cent. off purchases made
at a certain hardware and furniture
store.
Suvely that's going after business
in the case of newcomers with a
vengeance. One would feel as if one
were back on the back concession in
the early days, with all the neighbors
trying to make the corning into a
new neighborhood as pleasant as pos-
sible.
By the way, the mayor is Mr. J. J.
Alibi, 'a former citizen of town, and
his wife is also,an old Clinton girl,
a sister of the late Tom Jackson.
This may be an idea of the mayor,
who was always an energetic busi-
ness man.
Could Clinton business then do any-
thing in this Iine when new people
come to town?
