Supper front 6 to 8 o'clock: Short Course at Brussels' A short, course in Agriculture and Home Economics, under the Provin-, cil Department of Agriculture, will opeia in Brussels on Dec. est. It will be under the direction of District Re- presentative 5. B, 'Stothers, and will continue until,tbe last week of. Feb- ruary, These short courses, which are really a case of the college corn- ing to the people who cannot make it convenient to go to college, have proved very popular, so far, this be- ing the fourth held in Huron County, take advantage of this one. Two years ago the course was held in Clinton, Publishing Council Minutes In order that the Morris and Turn- berry readers of this paper may not misunderstand us, as to why we are not publishing the council minutes of these townships we wishto say, that until we were asked why the council minutes were not being inserted, we did not know but that they were. The editor is glad to publish the council minutes of these or any other townships, they are news, and news is what we are after. They are glad- ly published whenever the clerk's bring, or send them to us. We want them. The gentleman from Morris pointed out that the October meeting of the Council was last week publish- ed in the Brussels Post and we might copy them, Yes, me might. We are trying to publish an up-to-date paper and would any of our readers want us to publish minutes of a Council meet- ing in our paper of Dec. 4th., which meeting was held on October 2oth? Is it fair to ask us to, we are not dead yet. Speeches That Are Too Lengthy The after-dinner speaker who says he doesn'tintend to snake a speech, then inflicts his eloquence, or a lamentable lack of that quality, on a tiring audience for thirty minutes or more despite an hour that is late and a programme that is behind in sche- dule, is still one of the trials of mo- dern existence: Like the poor, he will probably be always with us. The Sermon on the Mt. didn't take nearly as long in deliverance as some after dinner speaker will take to, say "I am glad to be with you on this occasion" and a few more thousand words which mean precisely; the same thing. The more the .audience shuffles in its seat with the oppression, the more the speaker warms to his task, ' There are some speakers, like some singers, one would like to listen to for any length of time, but they only appear once in a while, It is a common error in pub- lic events to make a programme so long that it is arduous, and what is a delightful entertainment, for two hours, becomes a positive trial by the time the third hour is past, and every minute there after is a torture. Brevi- ty continues to constitute the soul of wit, despite the assaults made upon it. Celebrate Silver Wedding Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Halliday re- ceived their friends at /heir home on Inkerman street on Saturday evening to celebrate their twenty-fifth wedding anniversary, • The living room was decorated with pink and white mums and the dining table was centred with sweetheart roses : and dwarf mums.
