COME EP HERE BILL
Kincardine Will do its Best'' to house
Your Dredge and'Outfit
"B111' lt'orrest, who keeps his dredg-
ing
redging- and contracting outfit in Goderich
hasme•
b asked
by the council of that
town to give up the name ”Goderich"
Nei -hell is on his big dredge. The rea-
son 'fo •
i the iecjuestod change is that,
the Canada Steainship' :`Company'
wants- to name one of their vessels.
"Goderieh;'
Bill is:a: bluet bird in his ways and
has a vernacular all his own. Appar-
ently he feels that he Ts not appreci-
ated hi his home town, and it'looks
as if the council' didn't just recognize
that out of loyalty to the town he had
named the dredge "Goderich." ' IIe
might have called it "Kincardine" or
any other good, name, but he didn't:
He liked Goderich and 'always has
been a good booster for it: '
LI answer to the request : of the
council lie sent them the following
letter. It`justbreathes out Bill's feel-
ings. ib was not published in the
Goderich papers.` It's worth reading:
The Mayor and Council of Goderich:
Gentlemen.—Yours of the 24th re-
ceived and contents noted. Re chang-
ing the name of my dredge from
"Goderieh" to,..,,,.?, particularly
where you express your "sentiment
that you do not wish to press the
matter, I know it would be duck soup
for you to put me out of this or any
other.,seaport town,
The writer' cannot understand what
his predecessors were thinking of to
have the ,audacity to name ;a dredge
after his home town, without first.
taking into . consideration what suc-
ceeding councils might wish.
Your -wish will be complied with -at:
the earliest possible moment and in
view of the consideration my work-
men receive in the way of 'keeping
the steps and approach to the harbor
in such a condition. that they are not
safe to life or limb, I will at the
earliest date possible look up a new
location, as I know from information
at hand there may be other ports
where I can locate, and the labor'I
employ would be a eonsideratiop,
while here amongst big interests it
is beneath notice, in fact a detriment
to the advertising of your town.
Yours truly, •
W, L. FORREST.
P.S.—I haven't a doubt in the
world that the -small amount of adver-
tising that the town - of Goderich
would receive by the 'name "Goder-
ieh" on one of the C.S.L. Steamers is
of much more benefit to the rate-
payers than the $40,000.00 that I
spend annually employing labor.
Bill, if you decide- to leave Goder-
ich there's a snug little harbor right
up here. It isn't so big, but it's going
to grow, and you can bet this town
is looking for you and your kind. Be-
fore changing, Bill, give us the -once
over anti`•let us see if the town -can't
accommodate you, -Kincardine„ Re-
view -Reporter.

tion came from Professor J. A. Mir -

"At the request of the National
Confmissarat of Agriculture at Nar-
comzen, I have the honor to inform
you that they have decided not to
send official delegates to the World's
Poultry Congress on accountof the

applicatiops had been received for ten
reservations on the "Seeing Canada"'
train that will tour Canada' from

ITS WORTH SOMETHING
TO KNOW ,HOW
The machinery was out of order at
one of the cotton.; mills and several
machinists, were sent for to repair it.
All declared that it could not be re-
paired and that a new engine would
have to be bought. An. Irishman em-
ployed about the place asked permis-
sion to try to fix the engine, and they
consented. He hammered it a little,
put in a few screws, and finally got
it working all right.
They asked him how much he was
going to charge, and hesent in his
bill for $200.50.
They asked him why he had put in
the 50e and he replied:
"The 50c was for doing the work
and the $200.00 was for knowing
how,"
