The other clay Mr. W., D. Fair, a- mong a lot"of old papers, carne across an invitation to a farewell ball, W hich reads: "Sir, the pleasure of your company and lady is respectful- ly solicited to attend a farewell ball and supper to be given by Mr. W.

Mr. John Johnston of the harness emporium was out shooting last Thursday and brought down a good bag of black squirrels and rabbits. The News -Record was favored with a couple of nice specimens, for which we thank the doner.

From The New Era, Oet.. 23rd, 1896: A large , crowd witnessed an ex- citing contest between Ed. Cantelon and Jack Miller on Wednesday, which resulted in a tie. The gentle- men were shooting for the champion- ship for the C. G. C. in live birds. They each succeeded in getting 19 out of 21 birds, which is a high score. Special trains have been running every other day to accommodate the freight from hereabouts, mostly ap- ples and produce.

M. of this district, visited Zurich Lodge in his official capacity Tuesday evening . Messrs. Mc- Lean, Porter, Holloway, Taylor and McCool visited Hensall Lodge with Dr. Shaw on Thursday evening last. When The Present Century Was Young From The News -Record, Oct. 19th, 1911: Mr. 'Will L. Johnson returned on Thursday ,last from Terence, Man., where a n d thereabouts - he spent three months. He assisted in the har- vesting, the threshing, : etc., varied witha little 'bit of hunting, and while he looks the better for his trip he is glad to be back in the old town again. He is not altogether in love with the west and still believes that good old Ontario is and will continue to be the banner province. Dr. Woods of Bayfield was in town on Monday and booked himself pas- sage on the C. P. R. Empress which sails from Quebec on Saturday for Liverpool. He will be absent six weeks or two months and will visit the great hospitals of London, Dub- lin, Paris and Berlin so asto acquire still further skill in his profession. He will also visit relatives in Eng- land and Ireland ... During his ab- sence his practice will be in charge of Dr. Worthington, so well and fav- orably known in this county. Mr. T. H. Hardy of the Base Line is not one of those who are timid a- bout Fridays and who positively dread a combination of Friday and thirteen and to prove it we merely need state that he set the date of his sale for Friday the thirteenth. Not a -few of his acquainances shook their heads and prophesied a failure, but Mr. Hardy pooh-poohed the idea and as it so turned out the weather was perfect, the crowd big and the prices good. Mr. j. 'K. Wise of the Huron Road, Tucicersmith, has been doing well as an exhibitor at our country fairs this fall, has been winning prizes galore, thus repeating his success of former years. To get the red ticket in the different grain and dairy produce, his competitors have found, is a mighty hard thing if J. K. specially wants it and it means that the entry is not only fine but superfine. At Seaforth Mr. Wise made seventeen entries and took seventeen prizes. • From The New' Era, Oct, 19th, 1911; W. A. McConnell, agent for the C. P. R. Telegraph Co., had a bulletin each day of the baseball score for the World's Championship, which was eagerly looked forward to by the young and old baseball fane in town. The Clinton 'Collegiate Institute Field Day was held on Friday last. Both bylaws carried on Monday, ahnost unanimous favor shown for the new industry, the Motor Car By- law, the waterworks bylaw being car- ried two to one.

SPEAKING OF QUINCE A woman asked in a Toronto store for quince. The woman behind the counter:could think of nothing but "quints." On being assured that her would-be customer was not joking, she said she had never heard of such a fruit as quinee. By the way, could- n't The Toronto Star's punster make something out of that?—Dr. Dafoe's preserved "quints"? —Goderich 'Signal. THEY HAD THEIR FUN; Estimates of the attendance of .Or- illiens at 'the four games for the Mann cup run from five hundred all the way up to two thousand, and guesses at the cost to Orillians of seeing the games run to $20,000 and upwards. One thing certain is that as the result of having to go to'To- ronto for the four games, many Oril- lians claim to be "stony broke." Oril'lia -Packet-Times "CANADA CALLING" The snappy slogan "Canada Call- ing" has been adopted for the cam- paign to be launched in the United Kingdom this Fall for the purpose of advertising Canada. Experts say it will be the most concentrated and sci- entifically directed campaign ever undertaken by a Dominion. The need for such a campaign can hardly be doubted, particularly after hearing what-. Hon. Vincent Massey, High Commissioner to London, had to say in Toronto. Over there, he stated, we are still thought of very frequent- ly as a land of wide open spaces given chiefly to agricultural pursuits. .—Windsor Stet. ONE EDITOR DISILLUSIONED Editor George James, of t h e Bowmanville Canadian Statesman, believes the farmers down that way have been putting it over him. They have all been telling him how hard up they are and he hasn't been pres- sing them very much to pay up their subscriptions. But he's cured. Two of his delinquent subscribers went to the Oshawa Fair and one of them lost $57 and the other $86 gambling in the midway. —Fergus News-Recbrd.

CHAPTER IX The Fun of the Game' Far up the tundra slope, abobe the trough of his platinum placer, Garth found a dry moss -bedded nook on the sunny side of a boulder. He lay down, pulled his hat brim over his eyes, and let himself fall asleep. A full eight hours later the sun swung around its wide circle until the' shadow of the rock fell upon Garth. Roused by the passing of the warm rays, he pushed back his hat and sat up. Out of the tail of his eye he glimpsed a silver fox darting around to the other side of the•rock. Had be been a fur hunter, the pretty creature would have had rea- son for its panic. Even its. summer pelt was worth a high price. He pic- tured Miss Ramill in a night-club, with the white fur about her thin. neer and a champagne' glass at her scarlet -rouged lips. A sharp clatter of hoofs drew his gaze upslope. Fifteen or twenty caribou had come grazing aslant the tundra within close gun range. They had just caught the sight of him and stampeded. His hand .gripped the stock of Isis rifle, only to draw away from it. Let thecarping critics chew moose until they could appreciate his efforts for them. Caribou for fat- tening, moose for work. He came clown to the camp as the sun slanted behind the northwest mountains in a glorious splendor of scarlet and gold and crimson. Mr. Hamill sat beside the fire between his daughter and Huxby. All had their backs to that magnificent sunset. Two of the three pouches that Garth had hidden under the moss in the Matto lay open before the men. Miss Ransil' was emptying the last contents of the sugar pouch into a pot of thick tea. She . was first to see Garth's noiseless approach. Her eyes 'widened in a startled look that hardened to defiance and then' into derision. "Hail to the chief," she mocked. "My dear Mr. Garth, you are ,most fashionably late to dinner, Will you not join us in a eup of tea?" Her father turned to eye the un- invited guest with a shade of uneasi- ness. "You see we found what .you were holding out on us, Garth. It's the only trick you failed to put over."

Such a long time had elapsed since anything was impounded here that when Poundkeeper Storey was eal'led upon to lock up a frollicking cow at large on the streets municipal offi- cials were forced to spend some time thumbing through statutes and by- laws to learn the procedure to be fol- lowed, When finally the matter was settled, it was found the cow had broken out'of the pound and returned to its own stable —Seaforth Expositor. 'BETTER ATTACH THAT OLD LANTERN' Once more the perennial subject of unlighted horse-drawn vehicles o n the highways at night comes to -the fore in the warning issued by Provin- cial police that offenders ,against the law in this regard are asking for trouble. Why there is such a wide- spread indifference to the law in this Matter is one of the pnsolved 'myster- ies,''because in this day nearly every- one drives a car more or less, and no one can drive a ear at night without being fully aware of the frightful menace the unlighted vehicle consti- tutes. Self preservation alone should induce people to comply with this en- tirely reasonable regulation. —Ridgetown Dominion. WOLVES MAY. VISIT DOORS Judging from reports made by In- dians at Kettle Point .Reserve, near Forest it will be a hard task this winter to keep the wolf from the door as the animals are much more numerous than in other years. While hunting near Port Franks Edgar Sawnoo and Wilfred Shaw- kenese ran into a pack of seven, shooting one and wounding others. The '. same day Beattie Greenbird counted a pack of nine. —Exeter Times -Advocate. SHOULD A GOVERNMENT DEFY THE LAW? Three counties. in 'Western' Ontario, —Huron, Perth and Peel,—were dry by the vote of their people under the Canada Temperance Act until the pre- sent government high-handedly .open- ed beer parlors in what was hereto- fore dry territory. The right of the Premier to do so was protested by citizens of the three counties and the Supreme Court of Canada gave a decision to the effect that the C. T. A. is still operative and the three counties legally dry. Pre- mier Hepburn indicated his determin- ation to appeal to the Privy Council and in the meantime has allowed the beer -selling authorities to continue. Now, claiming that a recent lower court decision in Peel County makes the C. T. A. ineffective the Premier signifies that he may drop his appeal to. the Privy Council. The Premier cannot seriously urge that a County Court decision stands, against a Supreme Court judgment. Obviously he is only seeking delay. And in the meantime the government goes on selling contrary to a Supreme Court ruling in territory which was legally voted dry by the ballots of its citizens. Surely the premier ,of a great pro- vince might set a better example iri law observance. —St. Marys Journal -Argus. EAST AND WEST HURON , TEACHERS MEET IN, CONVENTION East Huron Teachers Express Regret At Impending Re - ^ tirement Of ,Dr. Field, Inspector, And Present Him I With Easy Chair. East Huron Blyth, October 8th, 1936. The East Huron Teachers' Institute met here to -day at 10 o'clock a.m., the chair being occupied by the Pre- sident, Mr. Bert Gray, of Blyth. Devotional exercises were conduct- ed: by Rev. Mr. Brook of Blyth, after which the convention was welcomed to Blyth by Reeve McNeil.. President Bert Gray 'gave the Pre- sidential address taking as his topic "Personality'. He described an in- dividual's personality as hon that in- dividual , behaves—"the total quality. of an individual's behaviour." H e stressed the necessity of personality in members of the teaching profes- sion, since the teacher' is often the hero of his pupils, who look on him as the embodiment of all virtue and 'wis- dom—the supreme authority in all matters both of knowledge and behav- iour. When the child has forgotten all the formal lessons his teacher has taught, his life will be influenced by the atmosphere of the classroom or playgrounds permeated by the per- sonality of the teacher. He asked for the development of the good qualities in children that their personality 'night be an asset to them through life. To this end he encouraged a study of the psychology as an aid to the cultivation of this better personal- ity. A very interesting and instructive paper on the Convention trip to Ot- tawa in 1935 was presented by Miss Baeker of Brussels, who related the details of the visit to the capital city, its schools, tours to places of interest, including the Parliament Buildings, the Peace Tower, the mar- ket, and the surrounding French- Canadian country. Such pilgrimages, she said led to a broadening of knowledge from interchange of ideas with teachers of other parts of the Province and a greatly increased interest in and understanding of the affairs of ourcDominion Government.' A .nominating connnittee consisting of Mr. M. Stephens and the Misses Jamieson and Williamson presented a slate of officers for 1936-37. This Slate was adopted by the Convention and was as follows: President, Miss Helen Ament, Ethel. Vice -President, Wilbert Fralick, Wingham. Secretary -Treasurer, George H. Jefferson, Clinton. Executive Committee, The staff of Seaforth Public School, Miss Barbara Simpson, Seaforth, Miss Norma Coutts, Auburn. Auditors, Misse-s Courtice and Fra- ser, Clinton. Delegate to 0. E. A., Miss Alberta Richmond, Dublin. A pleasing interlude at this time was 'a piano duet by Miss Elizabeth Mills and Miss Pauline Robinson. The question of automatic member- ship in Teachers' Federation was ab- ly presented by Dr. Joyce Boyle, and `the feeling of the convention on this Important matter secured. This ended the Thursday morning session. During the noon recess dinner was served by the ladies of thechoir of the Blyth United Church at which Mrs. Wilford delighted those present with a . solo. The afternoon session opened with an address on music in public schools by Miss Elizabeth Mills, Instructress in music in the Blyth Public School. She distinguished betweenmusic edu- cationists and musicians, stressing the fact that the purpose of music in schools is not to make musical per- formers of all pupils so much, as to teach enjoyment of the right kind of music, and to develope some of . the higher emotions and traits of• char- acter. With a class she demonstrated some of the methods' by which she felt good results might be attained. Dr. Field spoke briefly reviewing the spread of music teaching in the schools of the Inspectorate, and ad- vocating further advances musically. A discussion of the Course of Study in Art by Miss Hamilton of the Blyth Continuation School, together with a discussion of the methods of valuing the Art examination paper for 1936, was of interest to Fifth Class Teachers as well as to those engaged in teaching th e Upper grades of Public Schools. Miss Ham- ilton analyzed the marking system showing how marks, were earned, and how lost. The outside speaker for the Con- vention was Professor R. B. Liddy, Professor of Psychology of the Uni- versity of Western Ontario, London. Speaking on "Adjusting the School to the Child," he reminded the tea- chers of the importanceof their cal- ling both from the number of lives they influenced and from 'the in- vestment of money in the work of education, He felt there is need for a modification of methods of instruc- tion now in use, that a more efficient use of the time at our disposal may be tirade that more time can, be given to such important branches of edu- cation as training in citizenship, de- veloping special abilities, and adjnst- ing children, emotionally, rather than only intellectually, in short to devel- ope physical, moral, and emotional health. As illustrations he drew, from the subject of arithmetic that the mental processes required of jun- ior pupils were oftentimes too diffi- cult for their mental age, quoting. long division as an example. If left till the mind were more developed it might be mastered in a much shorter space of time. He reminded his lis- teners, however, that the school is only one factor inchild training; the home, the church, the playground, and the picture show all play their part. Education however must not be considered as static; educational institutions are changing rapidly for the better -better superivsion —bet- ter better physical conditions—better tea- cher -training, He recommended the study of educational books, particu- larly by teachers,—some of his re- commendations being: (1) "Adjusting the School to the Child," Washburne. (2) "Everyday Problems in Class- room Management." E. J. Brown. (3) "Psychology of the Exceptional Child," Dr. Scheidemann. (4) "Principles o f Education," Chapman & Counter, Friday On Friday •morning the sessions op- ened' with an address by 'Kenneth Ashton of Brussels on "Local Geo- graphy." He recommended commenc- ing with Nature Study of the local- ity in which the school is situated to develop observation in junior classes, passing on to the study of the most common substances produced locally' for food, clothing, and shelter. Visits to local industries, and imaginary journeys to other districts, reading of books of travel where stressed. He recommended the "Science Readers" published by Gage & Co. and "Play Story Geography" by the same pub- lisher. An interesting discussion of the Salt Industry of Huron, signs of the glacial epoch in Huron and an outline of the local history of Huron's early days with particular mention of Goderich, Clinton and Blyth, con- cluded a helpful geographical outline. "Manual Training i -n Public Schools" was introduced by Gordon Kidd, Principal of Wingham Public School. He stressed its value to the pupil and to the teacher; regretting that for many years our educational system has tended in a marked degree to prepare pupils for the University and the Normal School and neglect- ing to provide an introduction to the life work of the majority of ehildren. An exhibit of manual training tools, and models' clone by children in Pub- lic Schools was presented which in- terested many of the teachers pre- sent. Margaret Cudmore of the Pri:nary Room of Clinton Public School gave an excellent presentation of the sub- ject "Health in public Schools." Miss Cudmore had. attended the Health Training Course given in Toronto during the summer vacation and gave an outline of the work done there. Her rules for health for teachers and pupils reveal a change from the old order of things. She recommended f o r class -. instruction publications from the Canadian Tuberculosis Asso- ciation, Plaza Building, Ottawa; Do- minion' Dept, of Agriculture, Ottawa; Metropolitan Life Insurance Co., Ot- tawa; The Canadian Red Cross, To- ronto. This paper was full of help- ful suggestions. , "The New Third Readers" was the subject discussed by Miss Jean Web- ster of Wingham. Though but recent- ly introduced these readers .seem ,to be an improvement on the former rea- der, allowing for a wider range of reading in interesting and helpful va- riety. Inspector Field 'whose term as In- spector is to terminate shortly gave an interesting talk on the changes that have taken place in the schools and teachers of East Huron since he has been Insepctor, Numbers of pupils in some schools -have greatly decreas- ed; in others they have increased. School buildings and property have greatly improved; and East, Huron has provided as good or better facil- ities for the training of children as can be found in any, rural inspector- ate in Ontario. 'At the close of 'his address Dr. Field was presented with a chair by the teachers of the inspec- torate as a token of their apprecia- tion of his years of service in East Huron's Public Schools, Dr. Field replied briefly; assuring the conven- tion of his continued interest in edu- cation, and its problems. An explanation of the marking of the High School Entrance Arithmetic paper of 1936 brought to a close an interesting and instructive conven- tion. West Huron ' Teachers of West Huron, in con- vention at Goderich last week, unan- imously passed a resolution asking that a mini: mum' salary of $800 per year be fixed for public school tea- chers. Of the 185 teachers present, some stood on their feet and others waved their arms with shouts of "Yes, yes," to give approval of the resolution. About 80 per cent. of the delegates present were from rural schools where salaries have, been reduced in some eases as much as 40 per cent., I work my wonders all for you. I. provide a magic carpet to carry you into the homes of your friends, no shatter where they may be, In my seven -league boots you can hop in a moment from one shop to another, though they may be blocks apart, even miles, or perhaps continents!

HAVE YOU A TELEPHONE: IN YOUR HOME ? Our local business office will gladly supply information. during the last five years. Other resolutions passed dealt with the internal workings of the school system. Speaking for the Teachers' Fed- eration, Dr. Joyce Boyce, of Forest Hill, deplored the fact that public school teachers did not receive the recognition they should, as compared with a secondary school teacher. The task of the primary school teacher was equally as important and often much, more arduous, the speaker em- phasized.- G. Roy Fenwick, 'provincial super- visor of music for Ontario, in discus- sing "teaching of music" said it should have a place onthe curriculum if for no other reason than the bene- ficial effect music had on character. Dr. Liddy, professor of psychology (of the 'University of Western Ontario - spoke spoke on "Adapting the School to the ! Child." Splendid papers were given by Stewart Beattie, of Varna, on "Com- munity Leadership," and, by Miss Tila McCallouglr, of Woodham, on "The Ethics of the Teacher." The paper of Miss Evelyn Clark, of Centralia, oa "The Aim of the Teachers," also was• particularly good. R. Stonehouse, secretary, announc- ed that the registration of the asso- ciation was the largest since 1930. Officers elected were: Honorary president, W. H. Johnston, Exeter; president, Joseph Creech, Exeter vice-president, Miss P. ?enfold, Kip -- pen; secretary -treasurer, R. Stone-. house, Goderich; Delegate to Miss P. Penfound, Kippen. COLLEGIATE INSTITUTE NEWS Interestingly Written By A Student We are just a little disturbed to- night as we have recently succeeded in flinging ourselves down a flight of steps; we picked ourselves up and found that we had not broken any arms and that we would not be able to get out of doing our Latin after all. If we are somewhat bitter, you'll understand? Thank you! The past week has been fairly in- teresting, that is, there has always been something or other to do. Last Thursday, the first basket -hall game of the season was staged, and a most disturbing game it was. First and Second Form girls were the combat- ants, and naturally (being First and Second) they were noisy. First Form accomplished' a feat which has sel- dom been done by First Form in school history, i.e.—defeated Second Form. There were various reasons for First For'm's victory, four of them being the long arms and legs of Olive Finch. This infant phenom- enon was a good deal too fast for the guards they gave her, and whenever she was under the basket ready to shoot, her guard was somewhere in centre floor, trying to catch up. Ger- aldine Denomnme, who can run like a small Jack-rabit, backed up Finch and along. with Easom, a leggy new- comer, who gives great promise for future fame, made up 'a formidable trio of forwards. The guards aren't quite onto the game yet, but give them time. Second Form's defeat can 'mostly be attributed to laziness, The way they lumbered around was painful. Do you think they'd hurry?, Not on your life! Isabel Colquhoun played a consistently good game, she is a hard-working player, but she got very little co-operation. First Form scored seven baskets, Second Form one. Olive Finch and Isabel. Coign houn were the stars of the game. The score was 14-2 in' favour of First Form. Line-up: First Form—Forwards, 0. Finch,G. Denornme, G. Easom; Guards, A. Cornish, M. Miller, K. Ross. Second Form—Forwards,' I. Colquhoun, V. Elliott, W. Jervis; Guards, B .Snell, Daphne. Coleiough, Marie Plumsteel; Subs, Bernice Grigg, Joyce Gardiner. On Thursday, the 'foot -ball team went off to 'play Mitchell' with deter- mination in their hearts, fear in their faces, and gum in their mouths. The girls stayed home and hoped for the best, the boys "done their bit" and Cornish from First -Form scored a goal, which made the score 1-0 for Clinton at whcih they rushed 'home like mad things, and Mr, Franks danced Russian dances up and down the school steps, No, not really. We didn't see the game and can't, give a detailed account. The Literary Society has at Iast been formed, and has started upon its annual career of hard work. Fifth and Fourth Forms nominated Candi dates, and the whole school voted ors them. The candidate made election- eering speeches during opening exer- cises, and they were highly entertain- ing. The candidates for president, Ken. Dougan and Abe Filshie were called upon first. Mr. Dougan ap- proached the foot -lights first, and' spoke facetiously concerning political' promises, such as locking the ar- moury so that Mr. Pines could not have anyone shot by the proverbial squad of First -Formers at sun -rise - He remarked that if he was elected he would do his level best—Hereupon. he beamed sunnily on his listeners and sat down. Filshie followed'. him,. and promised not to make any pro-' niises, after which hepromised to do his level best (why level? They all promise to do their level best. Odd, we think it), and prophecied that Dougan would lose his confidence by the time the results were out. Fil- chie straightened his ti,e made his bow, and retired. Candidates for First Vice were - summoned next. Irene Robertson and Kathleen Cosens mounted the stage, fell over each other's feet a little, smiled nervously at one another, up' on which Mr. Fines called upon Miss Cosens. Kathleenmade some .witty' remarks, announced that she was Se- cond Vice last year and had evidently- become videntlybecome bored with, the position. We gat the impression that Miss Cosens political career is not going to be brilliant—she's much too unenthusi- astic. Bunnie Robertson, after ad- dressing her salutation to the wings- of the stage, spoke a very few words'. which we could not quite catch, but we gather that site promised to do her level best. ' The V. P. candidates seemed glad to get off the stage -- They They apparently bore no malice to -- ward each other. Third speakers were the Second' Vices- Second Vice -Presidents w e' mean of course, must you be literal minded? Faye Lindsaye and Ronald Peck opposing one another. Although.' it is women's privilege to have the last word, they made Miss Lindsaye' speak first. She smiled generously - upon the audiences and addressed' Mr. Fines, Miss Beattie, Miss Nixon,. Miss Manning, Miss Depew, Mr: Franks, Upper School, Fourth Form - Third Form, Second Form and First' Form. After all this, Miss Lindsaye' was evidently rather out of breathe (continued on . page- 6) )
