Several dances by 'the girls of 'the various forams Won applause ,From the audience, and the 'IIighland Filing by 'Miss Beatrice Aberthart and step dancing by (Robert Atberhart, were :splendid. A new''fea- ture, iii'' the pr.ogratnme :this year, was an oratorical 'contes't, five pupil. speaking on a wide range of snbjcets during the evening. The speeches were interesting and forceful and show that the'ISeaforth district in the future s'hould .not only contribute public men but also public 'women Three girls, Misses 'cava Wheatley, Margaret Armstrong and Elinor Burrows, took part, and twlo boys, Basil Duncan' apd Murray tSavauge. The three judges, Rev. Father Goetz, •Rev. 'W. -P. Lane •and Rev, T. H. !Brown met to select the winners, and. later in 'the _evening 'Mr, 'Lane an pounced that Miss Margaret Arm- strong :had won first place and Mur- ray 'Savaugg second. (Between the speeches, .•tbe boys of the school put on a fine display of gymnasium work, which showed their skill and excellent training, and. a "human" trained lion added humor to the performances Choruses given by the assembled school were well rendered. The Collegiate orchestra delighted .the audience. with several L undhers during the evening. The programme closed with a s'ho'rt play, The Templeton 1 ea'pot," which had many amusing situations and the pu- pils in the audience seemed to see many a joke on their chums who were acting., Elroy 'Brownlee (Prof. Algernon Gates) took 'the part of a monocled Englishman in a fine man- ner; A. iivlcLeatt ((Horace Templeton), Miss Bertha Grieve (Mrs, .Temple-. ton),'IMiss Laura McMillan (Hilda Templeton),, L.

MEDD AND NEBB. The similarity in` the South Huron candidates' names, Medd,. and Neeli (frequently pronounced Nehb) caus- ed a little confusion in -last Wednes- day's toting, 'bait if mistakes were made, they likely 'occurred as often on one ,side as the other.

'Parcel's under eight ounces should contain a statement of value, enclosed,- as called -for by the U.S. •customs regulations. • LADIES AND NOMINATIONS. Apparently the ladies o'f Wingham take slight interest in nomination meetings, as the Advance -Times last week says: "On taking his :Niece the chairman• addressed the ladies' and gentlemen, but to search our best, we couldn't find a lady in the audience,'', Seaforth can do 'better than that, as two ladies were present at last year's nomination. • ANNUAL MEETING.
