" GOT HIM AGAIN ".—Last week
we publishedoils-,. of a series of
refutations of untruths -which have
time and again appeared in the
columns of our cetera whon it is
dealing with the doings of Conser-
vatives. As a gentleman remarked
concerning our statement last week,
"you have got him agatu." But
our cotew seems to be incorrigible
as a retailer of statements, the re-
verse of facts. Not only istliils
the case when it.speaks of the do-
inge of conservatives in meeting
assembled, but also when it refers
to the corporate and personal doings
of Orangemen. In its last issue
the •Era states another untruth
when it stiys that " one of the
publishers of Lin NEWS -REconn
speaks for the Orangemen every
chance lie gets." That is a false-
hood. While we are proud of the
fact that one of our firm is an
Orangeman, and equally proud of
the fact that he has received numer-
ous calls to address his brother
Orangemen and protectants, we
regret to say that ho has not had
time to accept all tho invitations he
has received to address them. Yes,
we are pained to have to say that
our totem has in this case again
violated the ninth comn,aud'went.
Our Mr. Todd does not claim to
speak for the Orangemen as a body,
but, as a member of the Order he
has often addressed them on the
solicitation of his fellow members,
and to the 'best of his ability ex'
plained the principles of the Society
and the duties devolving .upon the
rnernbers. And he has tho satis-
faction of knowing that his address-
es have been received with appro-
val by his brethren and other pro,
teetants,both lay arfd clerical, present
on those occasions. And we be-
lieve it grieves him very much, to
not be in a position to "speak for
the Orangemen every chance he
gots," but he would often have to
bo in two places at the same time to
do so and have to give up nearly
his whole time to the cause 11e has
unselfishly at heart. For 11e has
persistently refused to receive any
remuneration for Itis services when
he has acceded to the pressing in-
vitations to " come over and help
us " received from the brethren.
And he has travelled in sorne in-
stances over a hundred miles to
fulfil this labor of love demanded
of him. Even did "ono of the
publishers " assume to speak for
the Orangemen, he does not assume
to speak for THE NEWS RECORD,
but so far as we know of his spoken
utterances, wo unqualifiedly endorse
them. But THE NEws-REconn in
any event is only responsible for
what appears in its columns. We
aro afraid our cotein will have to
look to a better source for informa-
tion than that which has beguiled
him so often into publishing tho
falsehoods wo have repeatedly ex-
posed. If that Source is an Orange-
man or a Conservative, ho necessari-
ly hail acted traitorously, yet the
Era is as much to blame for being
duped as the traitor is for his
willingness to lie in order to de-
ceive hits.
THE SICK LIST.—John Thompson
of the Bayfield Iiue, and Mrs. Harry
Stevens and Mr. Agnew, town, are
among the sick.

',.,..Outt Port Albert scribe notes the
death of an old lady there, on the

TROTTERS.—Mr. Lack Kennedy
is uow the owner of the splendid
stallion "Ike Groff," who has given
earnest of . possessing consider-
able speed, combined with the stay-
ing powers which a backing of racing
blood gives. Arcadia Wilkes, own-
ed by Jonathan :luster, Goderich, is

To PARENTS AND GUARDIANS.—
Do you expect your children to get
promoted at the public school ex•
aulinations in June 1 Do you send
your children to school regularly 1
Do you Seo that they prepare their
home -work? , Do you give -notes
to your children requesting the
teacher to excuse unprepared
lessons, or to allow them to leave
school at 3 o'clock in order to
escape preparation of neglected
work after 4 o'clock 1 Why is it
that the attendance is smaller on
Friday than other days ! Pupils
who neglect ” home -work " cannot
succeed in passing the approaching
examinations, and therefore, cannot
be promoted. In the two highest.
divisions from 1 to 1i, hoursshould
be given to shady, 1 hour in the
3rd an•d 4th divisions, and i hour
in the 5th and 6th divisions. Will
those parents who are anxious to
have their children succeed kindly
assist and cneouraye teachers by
seeing that pupils aro at school
every hour possible, and that they
come with lessons prepared,

Once,
we trust that the public generally will
eheerfullyecomply with the requirements
of the Board of health and remember that
the. Board is working for the good of all

Sanitary Inspector when he calls upon you
as a friend, he may bo worth many dollars
to you, he may save your life or the life

NEW SCiIooi .—The School board
have decided•to•build.ti new school
in section No. 4. In all probabili-
ty this school will he built on Mr.
Geo. Crich's lot. This is not .the
first mistake the board has made,
and in determining to erect this
school they are in no way going
back on their past record. If this
ecnool is built it will be against the
express wishes of the ratepayers of
the section. A petition signed by
the majority of the ratepayers was
preseuted to the board asking thorn
not to build a new school as the old•
one with a few repairs would be as
good as when built. The board,
however, have seen fit to overlook
the petition and have decided to
build a new school and add to the
excessively heavy school tax. The
people are beginning to see the
board in its true colors and if a
vote is taken to abolish the school
board, as is expected, it will in all
probability be given the hoist.
