In view of the ,Fact that the public are apparently laboring under a false: impression, Postmaster Sills wishes to once agRin inform ''the publik of the rates of postage. The rate to any place in North America is 2e per oz. or fractions British• Empire .is 3c' for first oz. and 3c for each extra, For- eign postage is 8c ,per first oz. and 4c for each additional, Local drop letters, sealed or unsealed, are 2c for oz. and lc additional. Postcards are 2e." It is on Vile postage for -.local let- ters where the public -have been using in many cases just le stamp. When it is 'remembered that ,double ,the' de- ficiency must ,be collected frons the addressee before delivery can be nttatte, one, can readily , see -the an- noyance created and therefore. it is hoped the public will help towards' eliminating the above by placing 2c stamps on "drop" letters in future Liberal -Conservative Public Meeting Cardno's Hall, Seaforth Thursday, Sept, 9th at8 P. wt.

Tilos iu the Middle and Upper school 755swcre >In tt n t eacl n a e made 634 of these were successful. The percent- age then for the combined Middle and Upper school, is approximately .84, Last year in the• Middle. and Upper school the percentage was 81, while two "'years ago the percentage was 75. These figures show that the work of the school has continually improved tilt the present high grade of efficiency has been readhed. iAn- :other pleasing feature of the results this year.is :the number who obtained -honors._ `Considerably more than half. of the successful attempts, obtained honors, The record of the following pupils are worthy of note.

Thursday evening, while the weath- er pian was none to kind, an ex- ceptionally good crowd attended the Tions and Band Tattoo held at the Driving Pajak.- With the programine, nothing but, praise was heard from every spectator and though the ex- tremely cold weather made real en- joyment impossible, yet the com- mittee in charge are more than satis- fied -d-ith the results and wish to thank the various' chairmen ` for their hard work as well as the general public for their patronage. The expenses were 'heavy but a substantial sum re- mained over and above, approximate- ly two hundred dollars. \Vhile all of the seven hands did well, special mention should be made of the performance of the Guelph Band under the leadership of Mr,- Thos, Miller.
