Holiday Vivitors.—Among the visi-
tors in the village for the holiday we
noticed the following: Mr. and Mrs.
W. R. Bell and family, of Windsor;
date for the Referm ;part' rr, •e
ing election. Fre , caJled '• on some .of
the .old time; aeformAnt from the Alt-
fereat divisions to express thernselyes
regarding, the present issues and'In.
particular the Temperance question,
and what has now been termed the
"wet" and "dry" aspect of the burn-
ing 'problem. Quite a number re.
sponded to the invitation, which made
the meeting quite an interesting one,
bringing out all phases of the ques-
tion. After pretty full discussion the
general feeling of the meeting was
found to be that as the U.F.O. had
already at their convention named a
supporter of the Temperance question
in the person of Mr. W. G. Medd, of
Exeter, that it might be best for the
convention, under those circumstances,
not to put a candidate in the field,
which would /dean three, and two of
them standing for the present O.T.A.
It yeas decided by a vote not to put
a candidate in the field at least not
at this meeting, but that it would be
well for the Executive of the U.F.O.
and that of the Liberal to meet and
discuss the matter and particularly
so as there had been some misunder-
standing in the proposed meeting of
those executives at the time of hold-
ing the convention. Mr. }Leaman
took the chair before the close of the
meeting- and very ably spoke on mat-
ters connected with the convention.
Mr. J. M. Govenlock, of Seaforth, very
ahly performed the duties of Secre-
tary. and Mr. Parliament gave a
splendid and. able speech in regards
to all the great questions that were
at this particular time before the
electors. The meeting was closed by
the singing of the National Anthem.
Briefs.—Mrs. Walter Moffat and
little daughter, Lois, of Brucefield,
spent part of last week with her
mother, Mrs. Peter Fisher and sister,
Miss Eleanor, returning home on Sun-
day.—Mr. and Mrs. Louis Fletcher,
of Kirkton; Mr. and Mrs. Matthew
Routly, of Sunshine; Mr. Louis

Woodstock, spent the week end with
Mr. and Mrs. James Priest and fam-

able day and weather conditions.—
Rev. Mr. McTavish, of James Street
United Church, at Exeter, delivered a
most interesting lecture in the United
Church here on Friday evening last
under the -auspices of the Mollard
Mission Circle. His subject was "The
Luggage of Life," and in the lecture
he very happily blended wit, humor
and instruction. The attendance was
not as large as the lecture deserved,
owing to other functions being held
the same evening, including a dance
in the town halls which always tends
to divide the attendance. We trust
on another occasion the revernd gen-
tleman will be greeted with a much
larger audience. — Large shipments
are being made from our railway
station from day to day, which shows
that trade is good and active. --Mrs.

in poor health for a number of
months. It certainly must have been
a great surprise to Mr. Johnston to
have been so kindly remembered on

rolumns, was passed. The matter nt
draining the baseball diamond W a al-
so taken up and discussed, hut nwing
to the long continued wet season and
the lateness now, it was thought ed-
visahle to leave the matter of drain
ing over until the spring, when it
might he deemed well to get an en-
gineer's ruling as to outlet. The
Reeve and clerk asked as to the cnm-
ing fire equipment stated that they
lind not received any word just late-
ly regarding it and that the time of
delivery wouild not be up for a couple
of weeks or so. A number of small
accounts were passed, and afterward:,
the Council adjourned to meet again

large number of delegates present
from all the municipalities in the

Thankoffering.—The W.M.S. Thank -
offering in St. Andrew's United
Church last Sunday was a very fine
service. The day was beautiful, the
congregation was large and the wo-
men had their part of the eervice well
arranged. Mrs. Monteith gave a
brief survey of the big work of the
United Society, Miss jean McLean a
short sketch of the work for the year
of the local auxiliary; Mrs, J. W. Mc-

for the purpose of hearing complaints
end revising the list for the coming
Provincial election. -- Thanksgiving
Day passed nff very quietly in the
village. Many of the sportsmen were
out hunting hut by all reports the
game was very searce.—The Provin-
cial election is creating very little
stir around the village and district.
The most exciting events thus far in
the campaign are the headlines of the
daily press and Mr. Ferguson's chang-
ing platform—Special services in
commemoration of the Reformation
were held by the Evangelical Luth-
eran congregation on Sunday.—
Among the holiday visitors over the
week end were: Mr. C. Eilber, of
Detroit; Clarence and Clayton Hoff-
man, Galt; Mr, L. Klopp and family,
Waterloo; Mr. W. Klopp and family,
Stratford; Misses L. Rosa and I.
Ho-wald, Stratford; Mr. J. Zettel, Kit-
chener.
Sudden Death.—This cranumnity
was startled on Saturday morning,
when the news was passed around ef
the death of Mr. Simon Dietrich, a
nrominent farmer living on the Baby-
lon Line, a few miles south-east of
Zurich. The late Mr. Dietrich heard
the dog barking during the night and
about one o'clock in the morning got
up, dressed and went out to see what
Was the matter. When be did not
return his wife became alarmed and
wakening the other members Of the
household, a !watch was started and
about nine o'clock in the forenoon he

Miss May, and son, William, accom-
panied by Mrs. John Miller, all of
Detroit, motored here to spend the
week end with Mr. and Mrs. R. Bon-
thron and relatives and friends in the
village.—At the morning service at
the United Church Miss Nellie Boyle
rendered very nicely a solo entitled,
"There is no Death," and at the evening
service Mrs. L. Hedden and Mr. W.
0. Goodwin rendered a duet entitled,
"Gates of the West," that was much
enjoyed. Mrs. Alice Joynt, Miss
Gretta Lammie and Mr. George H.
Follick took very nicely special parts
in the anthems.—Mrs. W. D. Kerr and
children, who have been visiting at
Seaforth, are now here visiting Mrs.
J. Hedden, Mrs. Kerr's sister.—Miss
Peggy McDonald, of Toronto, is the
guest of Mr. and Mrs. T. J. Sherritt,
of Trelaign Farm.—The services in
our three local churches qn Sunday
last (Thanksgiving- Sunday) were well
attended and splendid sermons and
music appropriate to the occasion
marked all the services.—Mr. W. A.
Houston, Manager of the Bank of
Montreal, motored to Toronto on Sat-
urday afternoon last and was ac-
companied home on Monday last by
his wife and two sons and are now

Houston recently rented from Mrs.
John Glenn, of this village.—Mr. and
Mr,.('. Lockwood and little son spent

er home at Blyth and also visited at

to be the order of the day judging
from all the children that are selling

Whitby, spent the week end here with
her sister, Mrs. J. H. Peck.—Zurich
Lodge, A.F. & A.M. at Hensall, are
looking forward to a very interesting
meeting on Monday evening, Novem-
ber 15th, when Rt. Worthy Bro. J.
Meyers, District Deputy Grand Mas-
ter of South Huron, is expected to
pay his official visit, and after the
closing of the Lodge, a social even-
ing will be spent including EC literary
and musical programme followed by
refreshments.—The snow storm of
Wednesday last was more than a
gentle reminder of the cold winter
months, but it takes something like
that to bring the best out in the way
of work and getting everything ready
for the winter. If we have a few
nice days, as we trust we will yet,
nothing that, can be done will be left
undone, but this has certainly been
the hardest fall almost in the mem-
ory of anyone, to get outside work
done, the securing of root crops, etc.
—Wedding belle have been ringing in
our village during the past week as
reports herein contained testify to and
the words of a bachelor's lament just
come to our mind, which ran in this
wise: "They're passing off the friends
1 know, they're going day by day ;
they're taking wives to tame their
lives, their jovial days are o'er; I
can't find one familiar friend to join
me ill 5 spree, they have ali grown
grave domestic men, they look ask-
ance at me." But for all that or be
as it may, we would not. like to dis-
courage our young men or more ad-
vanced in life bachelors, for it may
often he nice to have a wife to share
joys and sorrows with and to council
in times of danger or extremities. For
instanre, a young man who was driv-
ing down a very steep hill with a
spirited young colt when the harness
broke, letting the buggy run on to
the horse, and seeing what seemed
almost instant death facing them, he
cried to his wife, oh, pray, dear, and
the only prayer she could recollect
was, "0 Lord, for what we are about
.to receive, make us truly thankful."
---The usual weekly night meeting of
the Young People's League was held
in the Unity Church on Tuesday ev-
ening with a good attendance and with
Miss Nettie Pepper presiding and Miss
Dorothy Hefferan acting as secretary.
Rev. Mr. Sinclair opened the meeting
with prayer, after which a number
of hymns were sung, and the minutes
of the last meeting read. The fol-
lowing program gotten up by Ethel
Murdoch was well rendered and much
enjoyed: Solo, Miss Mary Pybus;
topic, Miss Jessie Johnson; instru-
mental trio, Misses Mildred Smillie,

ening, November 15th.—We regret to
state that Mrs. Chas. L. Jinks has
been quite poorly during the past
week or so.—Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Skin-
ner motored to Winchelsea on Mon-
day last to spend Thanksgiving day
with relatives and friends there.—
Mr. T. C. Joynt has been in Toronto
for the past, week or two where she
underwent an operation for throat
trouble. It appears that a former
operation of some years ago was not
as completely done as should have
been, thus necessitating another op-
eration, which we believe has very
successfully been performed by a
specialist in Toronto.—We just learn-
ed during the past week that a rather
unusual occurrence took place on the
farm of Mr. Robert Dick, of what is
termed the 2nd concession of the
Township of Hay, but which is really
the 3rd, a short time ago when a
very fine specimen of a deer ran out
of the thick bush into his fields, giv-
ing fright to cows that were feeding
there, and after running around for
some time, shot back into the woods
and onward westerly through the
swamps. We asked the young lady
who gave us the narrative if it might
have been a two -legged dear stray-
ing around, but she thought not.—
Quite a number from our village and
vicinity were in Exeter on Tuesday
afternoon last attending a political
meeting addressed by Mr. Sinclair,
leader of the opposition and also by
Mr. Raney and Mr. W. G. Medd and
report a largely attended and most
interesting meeting.—Miss Alda Bol-
ton received through the mail from
one of her relatives in Miami, Flori-
da, a very pretty cocoanut as taken
off the tree, with her name nicely
carved on its outer surface.—We are
pleased to learn at date of writing
that Mrs. Thos. W. Parlmer, who has
been so very poorly for a couple of
weeks or so, is now considerably im-
proved.—In response to a Thanks-
giving offering called for in the Unit-
ed Church on Sunday last, Thanksgiv-
ing Day, and for which envelopes
were sent out considerably over $700
was received and with Sabbath school
offering and ordinary collections over
and apart from that of special
Thanksgiving offering the total a-
mounted to within a very few dollars
of $800, which was certainly a fine
showing, and speaks for the liberal-
ity of the congregation and when
quite a large number of the envelopes
are received the total amount will be
very largely increased, as it was in-
timated that any not finding it con-
venient to contribute nn Sunday last,
could do so the following Sundays
during this month, or at their earl-
iest convenience.—The League of the
United Church are holding a sale of
hosne-made cooking in the town hall
on Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clock,
and as they are noted for good cook-
ing, the sale will be well worth at-
tending.—Mr. McConnell, of Dublin,
accompanied by members of his fam-
ily, motored here on Sunday last to
visit Miss Mary A. Hoggarth, who
had been quite poorly, but is now con-
siderably improved.—Mr. Mark Drys-
dale, our popular harttvare merchant,
looks this week taller than we have
ever seen him and perhaps the birth
column of this week or next week's
issue will serve to explain.—Traffic
on the C.N.R. was heavy during
Thanksgiving holidays.
