A neat verandah has been added

W. Caldwell, a prosperous farmer

About thirty scholars of the

Mr. Alexander Muir. principal of

"The Zdaple Leaf,"
Ontario mechanics who went to
the Northwest expecting to get big
wages, are returning disgusted
with the prospects there. They say
the labor market is greatly con-
gested ; wages low and board high.
They advice no one to go there un-
less they have a job secured ahead.
For people of some means or for
those who purpose homesteading
the Northwest is all right. The
country, however, is overrun with
land sharks, speculators, and dis-
honest government officials ready
to prey upon the unwary.
We are pleased to see so many of
our citizens taking pride in their
home. The word "home" is the
greatest ever uttered by human
tongue. What a refuge the home
is when the darkness gathers ! How
glad one is to get a glimpse of
home when time and space have
separated hint from it even for a
brief period ! There seems to be a
good natured rivalry here in an
effort to make, "our home" look a
little neater and thus be the more
inviting to the occupants than all
others. Such rivalry is certainly
pardonable.
Would it not be a good idea to
make some arrangements to have
the main streets of our village
Sprinkled during the dusty season.
The cost could be easily defrayed
by each business man paying a
just portion of the expense, and
the comfort that would result
would be well worth the money.
It is not very nice to have all the
doors and windows closed in warm
weather, and neither is it nice to
have a big cloud of dust sweep
down the street and into the doors
and windows, settling down on the
goods and counters. The water
wagon would do away with all
that. Who will make a start in
the matter?

tinued till nearly noon. After this
the day Was all tbat could be desir-
ed. ,:As a result of the wet forenoon
many did not attend the picnic,
sti.l those that did attend had a very
pleasant time.
The Band played a number of
selections in the village before leav-
ing for the Bend. After the arrival
there dinner was soon ready aucl all
did ample justice thereto. At half
past elle the Band led the way to
the playground where a most in-
teresting programme of sports was
,one through with. In the football
match between Zurich and Crediton
juniors, the score at the end of the
game was 1 to 1. The game was
very fast at times.
.After the sports, supper was soon
'ready and after this was over, some
Started,for• house, others went fish-
ing,others boating, and all were
willing enough to turn their faces
homeward when the time came. The

tended as in other years, was a
great success, and it is hoped that
