SEAFORTH CITIZENS' BAND This organization hasmet with every success this past summer, due to giving good musical programmes, and these programmes have been ac- complished by well attended rehears- als, and when the' programmes were... to be played to the public all mem- bers were in their places to do the part. Shortly speaking, on account of the management having the right pep behind the band, it was necessary that each' player get to practice or when the time for playing to the public came he was not equal to his part, which did not make It pleasant for the player,' and for this reason splendid attendances, good interest by the members, the band reached the height of desire for this summer. Plans are being formed for next season. To have a band; players must be had, and we have arrived at the season of long evenings when we should have something to do, and what is higher and shows more re- finement than music, so we appeal to all young men of Seaforth and vicin- ity to consider learining a band instru- ment this winter. A band instrument can not be learned in -two weeks, which has been a comman fault of beginners, to start and finish in this time, be- cause they had not learned to play in two weeks nor lead they given the task a fair trial by practicing. This appeal is for young men be- tween the ages of 15 and 30, pre- ferably those who expect to remain in Seaforth for a few years.. There are three essentials before you make your decision to learn an instrument, namely: 1st. It takes a lot of prac- tice at hone. 2nd. It takes one- night -a week in the band room for a class lesson. 3rd. Unless a good rea- son could be given, a class lesson must not be missed.. Use of instruments and lessons in band room are free. These lessons will begin in two or three weeks, so make your decision, and hand your name to the Secretary. Don't ahways be a listener. You can do it. ft is interesting. T. G. SCOTT E. L. BOX. Vice -Pres, Secy. ,�. r MILL PHONE 216 BOX 229 the County, and the District and -resident' Engineers spoke on the good roads movement. Mr. Biggs aslKtred us that the road _ from Stratford to Goderich would indeed have particu- lar attention, and that it would be completed by, this time next year. The speakers were very much disap- pointed, as well ass ourselves, that we , were unable to go through with the programme. ?Thanking you for •alp the trouble you have taken in connec- tion with the move, I remain, Your very sincerely, A. W. Deacon, Secre- tary." . G. W. V. A. Notes.—Owing to the preparations for the Thanksgiving dance on October 18th, 1920, there will not be a dance this Friday night or next. Fire Prevention Day. — A Royal proclamation has appointed- Saturday, October 9th as Fire Prevention Day and the earnest co-operation of every sincere and patriotic Canadian is ex- pected towards extending this move- ment and lessening by a .good clean-up the menace of fire. Canada has, the unenviable position of heading all countries in the matter of fire losses per capita. Let us change this. Clean up our yards, old buildings, outhouses, see that our chimneys and pipes are. in good condition, use all preventions in regard to matches, instruct the chil- dren. and cut down the fire loss, which in Ontario alone, amounted to $11,- 000,000 last year. Egmondville Notes. — Mr. James Nolan and family have moved on to the fine farm he purchased just south of town, known as the old Stewart farm. We welcome them as he corns recommended as a good citizen and an Al farmer, having farmed in Brussels district previous to moving here. We are also pleased to state that Mra Walper, from whom he pur- chased, is not going to leave us, hav- ing purchased the old. Leatherland farm, one mile south.—Mr. and Mrs. Dinni.n•, who have sold their farm to Mr. L. Walper, have taken apart- ments with Mrs. Jas. Cumming and are moving in there this week.—Mrs: Jason Birchall, of Mitchell, spent a few days with Mrs. F. Sprigg's.— Mr. and Mrs. Wni.

McDermid, of Goderich, will occupy the pulpit both morning and' evening.—Quite _a number in the village are having elec- tric lights installed in their houses, The old coal oil lamp will soon be a thing of the past.—We understand there have been a dumber of gardens destroyed in the village, by /cows roaming at large.- Most of those people depend on their gardens to produce vegetables for winter use, and it is most distracting to have them tramped and eaten by cows. Is there a Jaw forbidding cows on the street? If so, why not enforce it.—Mr. and Mrs. Jos. Atkinson are moving into the house they recently purchased from Miss McQuaid. No Motor Hike. -The motor hike planned for Friday last by the Strat- ford Chamber pf Commerce, which was to have accompanied Hon•. F. C. Biggs. Minister of Public Works for Ontario; Hon. Peter Smith, Provin- cial Treasurer, and R. Home Smith, of the Dominion. Department of High- wee:a on a tour of inspection of the road from Stratford to Goderich, had to be cancelled on account , of bad weather. This ' was a great disap- pointed to the people of Seaforth as the town had made extensive pre- parations to entertain the distinguish- ed visitors, when they arrived here `and many had, intended joining the h:.ke on to Goderich, where a banquet was to have been tendered the motor- ists. However a provincial good road froin. Goderich to Stratford is assured as shown by the following, letter from the Secretary of Stratford Chamber of Commerce to Mr. F. G: Neelin, secretary of the local Board of Trade, which speaks for . itself :-- "After the decision to cancel the trip we hastily prepared a luncheon in the Chamber of Commerce Rooms. The Hon. F. C. Biggs, Mr. R. Home Smfth, His Worship Mayor Steenson of Stratford, Warden McCallum of Death of Ada Sleeth.—The death of Miss Ad's Sleeth on, Thursday, September doth, meant a welcome and happy release to a worthy young woman, who had been a sufferer for a number of years. The bright promise of her childhood was fulfilled in a teaching career thatwas un- usually successful. Her last appoint- ment was in the Seaforth Public. School where she rendered service of the highest order, being greatly be- loved by the children under her charge. In addition to the qualifica- tions of scholarship, Miss Sleeth brought to her work high ideals of duty, a kindly nature and the teach- ing gift that made it so profitable for her: pupils. She was held in wide and sincere esteem which gave an added sadness to the breakdown in her health that compelled the giving up of exacting public responsibilities. The hoped-for restoration to her old- time vigor and efficiency did not take place, and her death was not alto- gether unlooked for. The funeral, which was private, took place on Sun- day fromthe residence of her widow- ed mother, Mrs. William Sleeth, to whom the sympathy of the community is extended. The death of her father - some ten yearseago was ever after a bitter sorrow to Miss Sleeth. Coal heater in good condition for sale. Apply to, Wm. Stoddart, Seaforth. 2755x1.
