Eraser, collector of customs, and as this is one of the beauty spots of Wingham we hope the taw proprietor will keep it trimmed up so that visit- brs entering our town ft oiri the east will receive a favorable impression Of our lOwn, strtution of the community. This year we haveto deal with the Redpath Chautauqua, the largest and best known of its kind in the world. The artists of the opening day were the Metropolitan Orchestra, and John B. Ratto, noted character delineator. The orchestra is composed of five young ladies who displayed a very thorough knowledge of popular and classicel orchestral music. Their play- ing was a constant delight to the audi- ence. It is a five -piece orchestra com- prising piano, violin, 'cello, flute and piano, These instruments blended per- fectly and the effect was very pleas- ing indeed. Piano and violin solos by members of the orchestra deserve special mention. It is seldom that the people of the community have an opportunity of listening to finer mus- ic than that of Saturday evening. • Mr. Ratto is a master of his art. His impersonation' of a cockney sol- dier and reading of Kipling's Gunge Dhin were 4eerfect . A unique feat- ure of the \program was his repre- sentation of a number of the old mus- ic masters including Verdi, and his direction in character of the Metro- politan Orchestra playing various com- positions of the old musicians. His portrayal of the leaders of the Allies during the Great War was •excellent. In concluding he gave a very interest- ing and irtstructive outline of the meaning. of Chautauqua and what it means to the community. • • One of the finest treats of the week was the lecture by Ex -Judge George M. Alden, a distinguished Boston jur- ist. Judge Alden was for a number of years a justice of the Supreme Court of Massachusetts. He is a member of one of Boston's' oldest families and a fine type of New Eng- lander, The Need of the Hour, ac- • cording to the Judge, is nothing but old-fashioned honesty. The people of the country and city like to gather around the corner store and discuss the graft, greed and corruption of the big men of the country. The speaker pointed out that the smallest deceit was graft. While he had a very seri- ous subject he dealt with it in such a bright way and interspersed it with so many anecdotes both humorous and interesting that his audience got the lesson well into their minds, and at the same time enjoyed getting it there. • In beginning the Judge explained he intended to deal with his subject as an American, and speak of the needs of the haur as they were needed in the United States rather than in Canada. However as he proceeded with his lecture it became apparent that the needs he dealt with were as much otir needs as -those of our sister nation. He loved .his country although he criticised it the speaker said,.- It had been said that love was an eye-open- er, when one loved one criticized. The relationships of life were four- fold, he said. They were business re- lationships, ' domestic relationships, political relationships, and religious re- lationships troubles are always aris- ing, largely because individuals do not play the gan-le and accept the re- sponsibilities of the relationship. That was the keynote di his message, he stated, Each •individual must play the game and do his or her bit. • 11 this were done there would be no "Need of the Hour." Grafters, he pointed out, were not only to be,. found in political circles. The smallest sort of deceit was graft. .1-1e told .of farmers in New Hamp- shire—with a sly implication that there might be similar persons out of New Hampshire—who went to church regularly, and boasted of their honesty who watered the milk, and gave short measure to their customers. He re ealled a. chap he knew in a Certain small town in Vermont, who for over forty-one years had occupied the seine their at the general store and never missed a night. He decried the graft and corruption of the great men of the land, But that same critic had been known on many oceasions to sell ancient eggs as fresh -laid. The country, the Judge said, could never be reformed by criticism, Each in- dividual must reform himself before graft could be got rid. of. He was inclined to think that this was an age of retrOgreSSion rather than progression. People were be - coining careless about their religion, and the country --in the past—that for- got God ,was invariably the country (Confirmed on page 6.) otooll&uponowsiti rho 11.40111*1111111111' 11111111110111, ree So ething.

In the shed was about So tons of pressed hay, and J. a Anderson had stored over moo bushels of flax in the grain elevator. A quantity of lumber nearby was also damaged. It was the property of John Joym. Coal sheds in the immediate vicinitN- were also slightly damaged. It is hard to estimate the total loss, but it will be in the neighborhood of $25,000 which is only slightly covered by insurance. Should Be a Good Game • Semi Final N. W. B. A.
