West Huron Teachers.—The Execu-
tive Committee of the West Huron
Teachers' Association xnet in Exeter
on March 1.7th, for the purpose -of
snaking arrangements for the next
Teachers' Convention. It was decid-
ed to hold the Convention in Exeter,
on Octolier 11th and 1,2th. The Edu-
cational Department is being request-
ed to send Mr. J. M. Emery, B.A., of
Stratford Normal to assist. It was
also thought best to have Prof. Mc-
Laren, 0. A. C., of Guelph, to deliver
an evening lecture. An interesting
programme was arranged for. The
following resolutions were passed:
That in view of the fact that many of,
the poems in the readers Are difficult
to memorize and poetry • frequently
becomes hateful to children when they
have to memorize too much, therefore
in the opinion of this committee the
amount of memory work for the pub-
lic, school classes should not be in-
reased. 2—That we congratulate the
•Provincial Government upon introduc-
ing a bill to superanuate teachers, thuS
making the profession more perma-
nent. 3—That we take this opportun-
ity of expressing our gratitude to the
Provincial Government for enacting
prohibition until 1919. 4—That we
wish to express our appreciation of
the 'progressive action taken by the
Provincial Government in .granting
the franchise to womer.
Death Claims Both.—From •shock
due to the sudden death of her hus-
band, Mr. Hugh Birss, Vice -President
of the Williams Shoe CoeBrantford, on
Saturday morning, Mrs . Catharine
Hossack Birss died several - hours
later. The two deaths of such high-
ly respected residents coming within
a few hours of each other was a trag-
edy that startled the -town. Mr. Birss
was born in Aberdeenshire, Scotland,
and came to Canada when twenty
years of age. He settled in Ingersoll
and then went to Walkerton, where
he conducted a boot and shoe business
for 23 years. Since that time he has
been in Brampton with the Williams
Shoe Company. In Walkerton, -Mr.
Birss was a town councillor for many
years and mayor severay temns. He
was an elder of the Brampton Pres-
byterian church and chairrhan of the
Session. 'He attended a meeting the
evening of his death. • He was also
a member of the Sons of Scotland and
of the Masonic Order. Mrs. Birss
was the youngest daughter of the late
Alexander Hossack, a well known and
highlyrespected resident of West
Zorra, Oxford County. Three sons
survive their parents, -John and James
in Brampton and William in Galt. The
double funeral took place on Monday
to Brampton cemetery'and was large-
ly attended. -The late Mrs. Hugh
Birss was anonlysister of Mrs . A.
M. Campbell of this town.
• A Real Old Subscriber.—In a letter
received from Mr. D. Miller, of Spo-
kane,- Washington, on Monday, March
19th, he establishes, what we think
must be the record for old subscpibers.
He says: "I saw in your issue of the
0th inst., a short article from the pen
of Mr. Alex. Ross, of Edmonton, stat-
ing he had been a subscriber to The
Expositor for the last fifty years and
wishing anyone that could break that
record to make himself known. Well,
I left the port of Dundee in Scotland
about the end of March, 1850, and, got,
to Montreal in eight weeks' ; From
there I went to Hamilton by boat,
there being no railways in Canada
then except a short one at. Montreal.
From Hamilton I then went by the
four horse stage to Goderich and from
there I walked to •the Thames Road
in Usborne township, where,I bought
100 acres right away for my father,
then in Scotland. There was no- Sea -
forth nor Expositor at that time,the
only rural paper at that time was the
Goderich Signal, which I read for
some years. I am unable, however,
to say whether I became a subserib-
er to The Expositor the first or second
years it started, which was in 1860,
but I have been a steady subscriber to
the paper ever since and for the last
twenty years have hadlt sent by mail
to Spokane. I can enjoy reading the
The Late Charles 'Brodie, sr.--tt
iwas with great surprise and genuine
regret that theerelatives and friends
of Mr. Charles Brodie, an, received
the sad news of his sudden death,
which occurred at the home' of his
son, William. in Woodrow, Seek., on
Wednesday last. *Mr. Brodie spent
,the winter here, at the home of his
son, Charles, and while here was
bright and active and enjoyed visiting
his many friend, having lived here
for over 20 years, previous to moving
west two years ago to make his home
with his son William and daughter,
Mrs. Holman. The late bite Brodie
was .born in Peebleshire, Scotland, and
came to this country when only two
years of age. • He spent the earlier
years of his life in Dumfries, Water-
• loo Country. In 1852 he came to -Hur-
on County, helping to dear the, land
in Grey Township in the pioneer days,
About twenty-five years ago, he mov-
ed to Seaforth and while here he oc-
cupied his time at gardening. Being
a great lover of nature, he made a
great success of his work,and although
in his 89th year, tookas great an in-
terest in the affairs of life, as he ever
did. He was much taken with the
great west, and left here on March 5th
for his home there. He was accom-
panied by his daughter, Mrs. 'Holman
and stood the trip splendidly and was
in the best of spirits when he arrived
home OD March 10th. On the following
Monday he complained of not feeling.
well and a doctor was summoned, who
pronounced his trouble as tonsilitis,
but not serious. The following day
he became worse and the doctor was
again called, when it was found that
hie, heart was giving out, and despite
alt he and loving hands could do, he
gradually weakened and passed away
on Wednesday evening. He leaves a
family of three sons and four dangle
ters, besides his widow to mourn his
loss.

Y. M. C. A, .Lectute.—On Tuesdty
evening Captain Marais, of the Can-
adian Young Men's Christian Associ-
ation,gave an interesting lecture in
Cardne'e hall. The audience, though a
fair .sieed one, was not what the lec-
ture nor the work of the Association
warranted. However, those present
were, deeply impressed with the work
being done by the Association for the
Canadian soldiers. Cathain MeNab,
who went overseas in the early stages
of the war, gave a vivid description of
the battlefield with its front line
of trenches, the army behind the arniy,
• the reserve station, and the rest
where the soldiers spend their time
when in billet. At the latter place
the Y.M.C.A. have their huts. These
comprise a reading room where sold-
iers may find all sorts of reading
matter; or can write home with ma-
terial supplied by the Association.
There is also a canteen and a concert
hall. In the latter the best music a-
vailable is bought for the soldiers
and where the moving pictures play s
very large part in the entertainment.
Tfte lecturer also told of the dugouts
nearer the front line, where, day and
night the men may get a cup of tea,
coffee or cocoa as they go in and out
of the trenches. Indeed one could not
help asking what would the soldiers
do without the Y.M.C.A. The work
surely deserves the support of the
people at home. Mr. Yeigh, one of the
secretaries 'of -the Association, added
a few words -to what had been said
by Capt. MeNab, telling of the As -

Rumgrr.
A Good Colt—Messrs. George Dale
and Son have -sold their fine yearling
stallion to T. McMichael and Son. This
is an exceptionally good colt. He was
bred from Mr. Dale's prize mare and
sired by Glenne, and as a foal took
first in his class at the Western Fair,
London. At present he is not in
show form but his recent. owners say:
when fitted he will take a lot of beat-
ing in the shove ring, and there are
few better judges of a horse than the
Messrs. Dale. The consideration for
the transfer reached a tall figure but
we hope the colt's new owners will
have every success with their new pur-
chase.
LEADBURY.
Notes.—Saturday last, St. Pat-
rick's Day, was one of the stormiest
days of the winter, soenething re-
sembling a hurricane, and continued
nearly all day. As a result we learn
'that some of the windmills were de-
molished. — Mr. Henry Bennewies
jr., who has been suffering from a se-
vere attack of inflammatory rheuma-
tism, is improving.—Mr. Gordon Hul-
ley has rented the farm of Mr. Richard
Robinson for a term.—Mr. A. Broth-
erston, Who lived in this neighborhood
for over thirty years, died at the
House of Refuge, in Clinton, a short
time ago. He was a native of Scot-
lnd and was nearly 80 years of age.
--It Will be well for our Canadian
people to be industrious and saving
as there is almost sure to be hard
times for a period at least, after the
war is over. • What followed the
Crimean War is almost sure to be
repeated in the near future.—Some of
the people have had quantities of -po-
tatoes frozen in their cellars. This is
unfortunate,the price of potatoes be-
ing so high, but climatic conditions
work against us here in our lady of
the snows and this has been an exceed-
ingly severe winter.

Riverdale Farm, Tuckersmith, when
their daughter, Jean, was united in
in the holy bond g of matrimony to Mr.
James Love, also of Tuckersmith, only
son of Mr. and Mrs. John Love. The

Argo, of Egmondville, The bride was
tastiefully gowned in ivory duchess
satin and carried white roses and val-
ley blossoms held her veil in place.
The wedding music was supplied by
Miss Ida Love, of Toronto, sister of
the groom and during the signing of
the register, Miss Grace Walker, of
Clinton, sang very sweetly, "0 Prom-
ise Me." After congratulations Mr.
and Mrs. Love led the way to the din-
ing -room which was appropriately de-
corated with shamrocks and red roses.
The Young couple will reside on the
7th concession of Tuckersrnith, where
their friends good wishes for a happy
and prosperous life will follow them.

ton last week disposed of a very fine

to develop into a right good on.
