Mrs. -Richmoond of S. Ja.cons in re-
naitting her renewal for 1928 to The

,paper and I would not like to do with -
'out it, It has the preference over all

it hardly seems possible, that it is
.over 5o years since the event referred
to in paper of Jan. t9th, of the floor
of Queens Hotel giving way' the night
,of the late Thomas Farrew's victory.
There were some verses, written at

YOUNG/CONSERVATIVES OF THE 1LOCAL ITEMS
HURON RIDINGS PLAN CLUBS
David Walker, 2e -year-old Univer-
sity of Toronto student, was chef
among the speakers of the evening,
at a gathering of Conservatives of
Huron County in Clinton on Tuesday
He was introduced by Mayor Combe,
Clinton, who is also president of the
local Conservative association; Mayor
J. H. MacEwen, Goderich, secretary
of North, Huron Conservative Assoc-
iation, and Harold Blackstone, Goder-
ich, president of North Huron assoc-
iation. Col. Combe was chairman.
The mentsing, despite bad road con-
ditions, was largely attended. At its
conclusion a• resolption was passed
with a view to sthnulating interest
among local young people which will
eventually result in the organization
of McDonald -Cartier young people's
Conservative Clubs in both North
and South Huron. The resolution fol-
lows. "That a social evening be arrang-
ed for in March to • consist • of
cards and a -musical program, and that
the following be a committee to make
arrangements, .Mayor H. B. Combe,
Dr. Fred Thompson, George Elliot,
Hugh Rorke, John Schoenhalls and
Miss Lydia McKinley, G. Hicks, G.
Thompson, George Jenkins, Nelson
Trewarth and Miss 11, Chia"
• "It is a favorable corepanisoti to Mr.
Bennet to compare him with the leader
of the other great party, the prime
minister, who personally inspires con-
fidence in no one and: whose eduties
and acts have branded hint not as a
constructive statesman, but as a theor-
etical scholar," Mr. Walker said dur-
ing the course of his address. "He
lacks the personality, force of charac-
ter, dynamic power- and constructive
ability which has been displayed by
the new leader of the Conservative
party," he added. "It is these person-
al qualities which inspire the confid
ence of the young element of the
Conservative party which will be the
deciding force in returning the Con-
servatives to power at the next
Domipionnelection," he said.
"Even now it is said Mr, King fears
the organization of this young Con-
servative movement, as well as the
general organization of the party, and
will call an election before the party -
is properly organized for victory," he
said
"In the provincial field Mr, Fergus-
on has endeared himself to the rank
and file of the province because of his
transparent sincerity and his homely
qualities. lie is leader of the people
who feel he is giving them a construte
five business Government, stressing
especially the development of the
North country and an efficient system
of education,". Mr. Walker said in
conclusion.
He declared that young Conservat-
ives were opening on a period of
prosperity which he believed came on
the threshold of a great Conservative
movement. It was through Premier
Fergusion, who; was responsible for
the orgenizatioe of young people's
associations. •
Hon R. B. Bennet had stressed in
his speech at the Winnipeg convent-
ion that the future of the Conservat-
ive party depended on the incarnation
of the young people into the party, he
said, This, he believed, will be brought
about by the forming, of McDonald -
Cartier clubs. At the, next election he
said he vote of the young people will
count; "If we can make the clubs in-
teresting for them the next election
will be successful,"
The 0. T. A. was proof of the per-
ty's failure, in that it did not bring
satisfaction and temperance to theepro-
vince, he saidt He stressed the fact that
"if you want the history of Canada,
you will find it bound up in tne Con-
servative party."
"We can sec nothing but hopeful-
less and success in the provincial field
for the next 20 yeas and in the fed-
eral, field at the next election." Mr.
Walker asserted. "I hope South Hur-
on will follow the example of other
constituencies that have organized.
McDonald -Cartier clubs of young men
and women, I trust the present move-
ment will be instrumental in return-
ing our 'party to power four years
(hence," he said in conclusion,
NEW ERA
A new era was born at the Winn
ipeg convention in the, recognition of
women and young people in the ranks
of a political party, Mr, Fallis, told
, Tier audience at the commencement of
her address. She informed her 'Haien-
ers that during the past four years
she had given up home and, social life
simply because there "is work for her
and other women in the ranks of the
Conservative party that can only be
done by women,"
Mrs. Fallis said .that 99 per cent.
of thote present were Conservativea
because their fathers were Conservat-
ives.i She stressed the point that one
must be a ,Conservative by conviction
as well as by birth. Some of the great
Conservatives who were members of
the party by conviction were Sir
Thomas White, Hon Hugh Guthrie
and Hon. Dr. Manion. "Wily should
they not be Conservatives?" she ask
len "Because the Conservative party

put through •every bit of important
legislation in the Dominion's history,"
she said.
If a political leader is criticized it
shows he is trying to do something,"
Mrs. Fallis said in denouncing Prem-
ier King. "The present premier has
been at Ottawa for six years, during'
which time many national problems
have come up," she stated. "Can you
point out any one of them in which
he has shown leadership?" she asked.
Mrs. Fallis said that Premier Fergus-
on was strongly criticized On many
occasions. "The reason is because he
has made thorough and comprehen-
sive studies of the problems brought
before him, has picked out what he
thought were the proper solutions
and has stuck to them," she asserted.
Mayor Combe said that he had been
a Liberal part of his life, but had
"finally saw the light, and could be
classed as a Conservative by convic-
tion." He declared he was known to
the Grits as a back -slider and
renegade for changing his poliey. He
urged the organization of a county
young peoples association.
WINGHAM TOWN COUNCIL TO SUBMIT
FRY & BLACKHALL LIMITED BY-LAW
For a day or two Wingham town
officials were somewhat concerned a-
bout the legal status of the coancil,
none of whom took the oath of of-
fice within twenty days of election,
according to an amendment of the
Municipal Act passed at the late ses-
sion of the Legislature. They decided
to hold a new nomination on Tues-
day evening, but in the meantime re-
ceived assurance from the Attorney -
General that remedial legislature win
be passed at the coming session of
the Legislature validating arty pre-
vious action taken by each corpora-
tions which fittd themselves in a sim-
ilar position. It might jest be added
that this change in procedure slipped
through the house without newspaper
comtnent, and as the statutes for that
session are not issued no person was
aware of the change.
Dr. Redmond and W. H, Gurney
appeared on behalf of the Arena. Lim-
ited, stating they did not wish to have.
the loan by-law resubmitted, lest it
might affect the Fry- & 131ackhall pro-
position, and asked foxa cash grant
of $500 instead.
Mayor Fells seemed opposed te
hn-
niediatti action, and after the council
had expressed -themselves favorably,
the matter was left over until next
meeting, when all grants will be con-
sidered, and also any legal questions
examined.
Me E. S. Copeland, was spokes-
man for a deputation of shareholders
in Fry & Blackhall Limited' who were
asking a loan of 05,0oo repayable in
annual instalments of $r000 with in-
terest at 3%, This Money is wanted
to purchase the *Union factory, on
which they have an option, and to
provide for new machinery, etc., that
the company may effectively meet
the growing demands of their busi-
tees. As security the council will
have a first mortgage on the build-
ing and machinery, The council were
unanimous in the matter, the By-law
received its first Fend second readings,
and the assent of tile electors will be
taken on March 5th.
The report of the auditors was pre -
seined and adopted. A stumoary of

Wa4GHAM'S.SENIOR HOCKEY TEAM
WINS DISTRICT GROUP HONOURS
Wingham Senior Hockey team sur-
prised it supporters Friday night by
slipping out( an the ice and adminin
stering a 5-1 trimming to :the boys
from T 5 Hunter's town, There was
nothing, lightning fast about the
game, the hand players shonring the
result of playing seven games within
ten days. The visitors were fast
skaters, played a three rnan rush al-
ways, and at once fell back behind
the blue line for a five man defence.
This put the greater part of the of
feeeive on the home team, and with

CURLERS' EUCHRE AND
DANCE PROVES POPULAR
Wingham curlers last year estab-
lished a precedent for a big crowd at
the euchre and dance, and this year
a still greater attendance favored the
social affair on Friday evening. The
crowd filled the council chambers, ov-
erflowed into the firemen's room, and
then some had to play in the hall-
way. Play continued until eleven
o'clock when refreshments were ser-
ved, after which dancing lent an ad-
ditional pleasure to the eVening.
Prizes for points went to Mrs. Jas.
Cummings and for lone hand to Miss
Wheeler. Similar prizes for the gen-.
tlemen went to John McKinnon and
Lorne Hudson,
