Mr. Grieve lik- ed Alberta better than Manitoba. He says they can grow great crops of wheat and oats there, and tells of one field that averaged 00 bushels to the acre; while he liked the Clim- ate better.

Now I beg to differ from this writer. A good man can always get plenty of employment in thie country at good wages, and at other work too besides on the rail- ways. I know of many 'farmers .in Ulla vicinity who were looking for good Ontario boys. -to drive their horses and being unable to get them had to hire green Englishmen who knew nothing of the work required of them.

Our noya,—For some reason the boys in our Allege have obtained a reputation that was not altogether complimentary for their conduct dur- ing public meetings. Whether it was deserved or not in the past we are not prepared to say, but we can cer- tainly vouch for their behaviour now. Within the past couple of weeks two entertainments have been, held here. On each occasion the buildings were crowded; and yet the order was of the very best, and that at a time when, with sitting room at a big premium. it might have been expected that there would have been some commotion. But such was not the case on these occasions and we think the boys are to be highly com- mended for their excellent conduct under not too favorable conditions. That Ts right boys. Keep it up, you can put to shame many' places that consider themselves a little better than the rest of us. Foresters' Night. -Thursday night of last week was Foresters' night in our burg, and every person for miles around was out. The occasion was the oyster supper and entertainment given by the Foresters' lodge of this village. Supper was served in the, basement of the Methodist Church frorn six to eight o'clock, and dur- ing the entire time the waltere were kept busy. The ladies of Constance neighborhood have a great reputa- tion to sustain, and they did it to perfection this night. After sup- per an adjournment was made to the hall, where the entertainment waa held. - When Mr. Bert Stephenson, who acted ad 'chairman for the evening, took the chair, the ball was packed to the doom, and a number were unable to get in. While the supper was be the very best the programme fur- nish d was in full keeping, and cer- tainly every person should have been mor than delighted with the entire evening. Mr. C. LeRoy Kenny, of Toronto was the star of the evening, and his comic songs, witty sayings and funny costumes and poses kept the u ,d le4ce in' the best a 'good • ese The Most 1 NOVENI •—••••••••••••••••••.„......,,,„„. 4,ti4action3 Buying G�oi I8 obtained by trausacting business in a store where you may lee your own judgment or depend on the salesperson's where you you risk nothing either way.
