MONTEITH, Manager Londesborough (Sub -Agency): Open Monday and Thursday "a bank inhere small accounts are welcome" 4OF INTEREST TO YOU AND ME Five weeks from tonight will be -Christmas Eve. It will soon be too •late to start your Christmas. shop- - ping early. Wouldn't it be swell if modern •singers quit "interpreting" songs and . just sang them?—Toronto Globe. Yes. Wouldn't it? Premier Icingg has announced that beginning at once mail will be deliv- ered every day but Sunday. This 'tvill be fine for the recipients of mail, business houses, etc., who often find it inconvenient not to be able to re- ceive their mail on holidays. But 'what about our rural mail couriers, for instance? Are they never to have a holiday? No doubt the city postmen will be relieved sometimes, but who is to relieve the rural man? Canadian cheesemen have discovered how to make a Blue Cheese of much the same quality as the famous Roquefort cheese, which will soon be • on the market. There is no reason why Canada couldn't make any kind • of cheese people wont, we•suppose, if they can only get a mould with the proper flavour, some folk seem to be particular as to the particular mould they taste in cheese. Personally, we prefer ours without. They are trying to debunk the Mil- lar will, at least the part of it which has to do with the number of children born in Toronto during the past ten years. This clause, it is deemed, is not in the "public interest." Perhaps it isn't. But surely it is too late to. talk of that now. It should have been taken up ten • years ago,- We • see Am -thing for the executors of the will to do but pay this money to the per- son designated by the writer of the -will. • This roan, who was supposedly in his right mind, executed a legal ,and in that case there would' seem nothing to,' do but carry out its in- •structiotts. Neither the Government nor the executors have any right to decidewhatought to be done about 'it. It will create a pretty state of ' things if any man's will can be set ',aside just because it is peculiar .And, anyway, it. -is ten years too , late to 'talk about its effect on the public weal, the effect is already in effect, 'and nothing anybody can do will af- feet the effect. 1'or some time Mary Street, from the Isaac street corner,'west had been `iia a bad state. There'are just three carne that the worst trouble develop -i ed. The catch basins on Mary street at tke foot of the bowling alley and the one beside the roadway into the Trewartha produce house, early be- came choked up and• the water had nowhere to go but to pour clown the sidewalk,, which it did whenever' we had a heavy rain, carrying down sand and earth which lodged oh the walk. Recently, however, the street com- mittee took note of this condition and sent men to clean out the catch bas- ins and to plow out at the edge of the walk all the way down the street. Men also carried away the sods turned, out by the plow but they were not very careful to scrape off what had grown up in the cracks of the walk nor to clear -off all the accumulation which had been left by the ram. • A woman living on this street, just beside the town plot, a woman who is wearing up to eighty, but who keeps her own grounds shorn and neat, turned out with her broom and swept off The walk from her own house to the alley- way. That part of the walk is now clean and -appreciated by those who use the walk. The street committee no doubt has done plenty of good work this sea- son, but this trouble, which is annual, though not always attended to an- VARNA Mrs. McConnell and Master John have returned home after spendinga few weeks in Toronto as the guests of, her daughter, Mrs: John Argo.

Lloyd was nine years old and was 111 some time but was taken to Hotel Dieu about a month ago for an opera- tion, after which complications set in and he passed away on Nov. 70.
