A large flock of wild geese, that had
spent their Christmas on the shores of the
James Bay, and who were on the way.
south to join in the New Year's festivities
with their kinsfolk on the shores of the
Gulf of Mexico, passed over the town last
week. Judging from the cheerful tones of
their honk, honk, they were enjoying the
trip.
Time to Reverse
The Post believes in connection with
Municipal speech rnaking that every other
Year the order of the program should be
reversed and let the school Board nom.
inns have the first "go." Usual plan is
to have all the oratical fireworks from the
Municipal, pathfinders and then if any
persons still remain to call for School
Board information. The school is a most
important part of our public affairs and
also costs a large: amount of money, but'
under the old rule little chance is afforded
methbers of Board to place it before the
electors.` Last Nomination was an im-
provement as to conditions, but we fancy
a reversal of the order with an understood`
arrangement as to who would represent
the sLhool so as not to leave it to the nom-
inees of the hour as they might not have
the statestical information, would prove
more satisfactory than the rule that gener-
ally prevails. -Brussels Post.
I-lowick School Concert
A very successful concert at S. S. No. 4,
Howick, by the pupils and ex pupils was
held on Friday, December 30th. The
building was packed to the doors. Visit-
ors were ::there from a Toronto, London,
Milverton and Owen Sound. ' Mr Charles
Simmons occupied the chair and every-
thing passed off without a single mistake.
Miss Stewart, who is a most efficient ' tea-
cher, deserves great praise in the training
of the children as each one knew how to
perform his part and the best order was
kept. The.closing item on the program
was a short address from Mr Matthew
Dane, who was one of the first scholars to
attend No. 4 school and now has a grand-
son going to the same school. This makes
the three generations who have attended
the same •school. Santa Claus then app
eared and unloaded the tree which' -con-
tained presents far -each' of - the children
aod'for the teacher. Closed by singing
God Save the King.-Vidette.
