It came in .phe midnight clear,
That glorious song of old,
From.angels bending near the earth
To ,totich their harps of gold.
Peztee on earth; good -will to men,
• From heaven's all -gracious King!
The world in solemn stillness lay
To hear the angels sing.
But with the woes of sin and strife
The world has suffered long;
Beneath the angel.$11-ain have rolled
Two thousand years of wrong;
Anti, man, at war with man, hears not
The love -song which they bring; •
0 hush the noise, ye men of strife,
And hear the angels sing!

She weaned child sball put his hand

The description by the prophet is
highly, poetic andis that of a goldee
age. The figtire is taken , from ' the
cpeclition of animals of various kinds
living 'together itt harmony; where
those whichare by nature defence-
less, aed which are esually the prey
of the strong, are 'permitted to live in
security. •

Peince of. Peace, a state of things
which wohld be well represented 1)y
the wolf dwelling with the lamb, the
leopard hrouching with the kid, arid
the little ehild safe in their inidst.
This picture became a reality in .part
in the . early gospel days, for Jesus
calmed arid subdued :the angry' pas-
,
sins of Men until they sat at his feet
.clothed and in their right minds' and
children Were ' no longer afraid of
them as heretofore.- The gospel has
often changed „the bitter persecutor,
as it did' Saul of Tarsus to the mild-
ness.' and: dentleneSe of a l'amb. It
bas. had ie all succeeding times.,an

Sluence over nations tending to pro-
duce "peace on earth, good' will to

SUPP,ORT YOUR LOCAL
•• NEWSPAPER
The local newspaper is an institu-
tion of prime importance in the d,evel-
opulent of our great Dominion. The
local paper serves as tile "magnaox"
of that fortunate majority which lives
outside of the big cities, helps lare;cly
to develop and encourage the coni.
intmity spirit without which co;kdin-
ated • progress is impossible. Its
strength as a newspaper lies in its in-
timate' knowledge of local conditions,
local aspiratioes, local persouelities,
and locatincidents. It has established
a contact' with its constituency which,
has no parallel amongst the great
daily newspapers or the journals of
national circulation. The ,lo'cal week-
ly neWspaper is it a class by itself.
In order that local natryspapers of Can-
ada may function as a virile influence
in the progress and well -„being of their
respective connumnities, they need and
deserve the active eupport of all good
citizens.—St, Marys' journal-Argns.

There were three absentees when
the roll was called on Tueeday after-
noon at the, opening session `of the
concluding nmeting of ,the Huron
county council ..for the yeare x923,
namely: Reeve Ovven Geiger, Hensall„
Reeve Francis 5. MeQuaid,
and Reeve Alfred Backer, Brussels.
All three couocillors arrived later dur-
ineothe session, however. Reeve Os-
• wald', Ginn, of goderich tovvnshiP,
elected to fill out the unexpired term
of the late D. Albert Lindsay, was
welcomed to the council, the d.eath of
Mr. • Lindsay being referred to in fitt-
ing terms by Warden B. W. F. Bea•Na,
erse of Exeter, and also by Clerk G.
W. i-lolman.
Warden Beavers, in, his address to
the members of the, council, 'stated
that heberieved the Period of depress-
ion to be passing, following a bounti-
ful harvest and fine weather to garner
in the crops. ,,Tinese wiro were will-
ing to work had been able to do so,
he, said, It beehaves us, a.s,Canaclians
to Make Canada one of the first na-
tions the world.today.
• Proceeding to the business carried
out by the various committees since
the June session Warden Beavers
drew the attention of the members.to
the bright and cheery appearance of
the council chamber and .court room;
which had been entirely redecorated
during the interim.. Repairs had al-
so been 'made to the, building in the
way of a new chinmey, new boiler,
and coestruction of outsidestairway
to the cellar. The upper storey and
cupola at the jail had. been closed
off asdirected at the Ione session in
order ;to ccmserve heat, which work,
had been done largely by the turn-
key, who was. a carpenter: by trade.
A hew- verandah and redecoration of
nefeber of` rooms • had 'been corn-
pleteeat the Children's Shelter.
A septic tank had been installed at
the I-Itiron County Home at Clinton.
The., onion crop off 'three acres had
been a failure this year, only $87 be-
ing ecalized in this, way. On Novem-
ber ,the 1,3111 the committee had held
a, special meeting to, consider the .re,
quest of the, lccePer of the Home .for
an increase of $2oo . per annum fox -
both himself. and :his wife, failing to
secure which their resignation was in
of'der. The committee, being unable
to • accept their resignation, had
thought it wise to advertise the posi-
ifionewhich had been done. This are
peintreent, hemaiked Nsiarden. Beavers,
is`one which deserves a great deal of
serious consideration..
New offices had been secured by the
county property, cotionittec:ifor Magie
sirate C. A. -Reid and „Mr. GM.
• Elliott', county superintendent of -the,
Childreh's Aid Society, in rooms over
the Union Bank, which had been rent-
ed for a ferm of two years at a month-
ly „remal of $25. The county derives
fees ..efetem the . Magistrate's office
which niore than compensates for se-
curing' and „equipping an office for his
convenience.

, other .reasons; Isaid •the. Ward.en,in
referring to, the department, of good,
roads. The total aniount le'vied for
good roads was $68,248 while the
Provincial grant amounted to $79,315-
07. To date orders had been signed
to the amount of $152,000 for expentli-,
ture on the roads. Our roads are not
in as good shape as they were last
year, declared the Warden,so that if
We wish to keep up our roads in the
best shape it is seen that more money
will have to be spent on them rather
than less money. The Provincial road
levy this year was for $8572; last
year it was. $15,19o.i The county of
Middlesex got' a bill from the Pro-
vince last year .fort $98,000, , It ibe-

We, the members of ide Girls' Phil -
thea Class .of Ebenezer Church, de-
sire to 'correct an item in last week's: -
"Advance". In ilt was stated the feet
that a shower and dance was put on
by the,S. S. Class at the' home of Mr.
and, Mrs. 1Vallace Agar. • The:.reason
the corresponcle.nt gave our dais the
credit of it, is that we planned a
shower forMrs. Agar, who is a ment-
bet- of cnir class, we intending to be
the only ones present., However,
when several community 'heard
of our intentions, they also ...desired to
show their wisilles by their presence
and gifts. As we learned they wished
to have dancing for amusement, we
gave over the whole proceeding: to
their auspices, We sincerely hope
this will entirely correct the mistaken
impression of last week.
