rife about speeding horses ou our
main streets. .`

turned to town after spending a

at Belleville.
MRs. W. STEEP BR., who broke
one of her lower limbs in two places
Christmas eve by falling ie getting
along nicely.
THE January thaw of 1891 was
prompt on time. New Years day
it blew and "thew" and rained with
energy which if followed up during
the balance .of the year will snake it
wet for some one.
Miss MAGOIE JACKSON, who for
some time past has been operating
the "ticker" in a North Clarke St.
office in Chicago, has' returned to
her home, Ilighview Residence,
Clinton.
WILLIE AND CLARE, sons of M]•,
Chas. Tweedy, walked froiu Goder-
ich the other day and spent a part
of their'vacatiun with former school
churnshere. • Many of the older
heads would not attempt the task
that the young Ions accomplished.
PRINCIPAL LOUGH was up to
Wingham on school work during
the holidays and continued his
journey even Auto- Kincardine.
Afterward he went south to Bruce
field to thaw out the frigidity which
even the warm • greetings of friends
up north could not totally -dispel.
Mn, ALEX. CHRvsTAL, machinist
and boiler maker, of Goderich, was
in town Friday in connection with
work at the <tapleton salt block.
In. our Goderich items last week
the type setters gave him initials
that he makes no claim to, which
almost raised his dander. Ho pre-
fers plain Alexander.
RED. MR. EDGE had lots of woik
on the 1st day of January 1891.
In the ° morning he attended at a
burial in Clinton ; in the afternoon
he officiated at a marriage in Exeter;
in the evening he was again in
Clinton and .took part in the pro•
gramme of the New Year's recep-
tion entertaiumeut gotten tip in his
church by the Y. P. C. E. S.
A party in town is nisch pleased
to notice that at least one •edito'• in
town can afford to sport a "tile."
The acme editor also sports br s,
that is pantaloons. It is the tyranny
of custom or public opinion, me boy,
and the variability of the climate
that causes the poor editor to sport
such aeticles ; not a matter of choice
or being able to afford -it.

MAYOR CLARKE, of Toronto, has
been returned again by 1,193 mac
jority. There were some 4,000 votes
less polled this year than last year,
nearly all of whole would have
voted for Clarke, but were so confi-
dent of his election that they stayed
at home.
MR. WILLIAM TIPLADY was hitch-
ing up a young horse a few days ago
when the animal reared up and fell
over against him, throwing him on
a ladder and partly falling on him,
bruising his side severely. It was
though at first that some of Mr.
Ti''is1 y's ribs were broken, but we
understand that this is not the case,
though he had to be helped ou with
his clothes next day and the injured
parte feel quite sore yet.
Cowsiox.—Tuesday a horse and
buggy, containing Mr. Butts, his wife
and two children, were being driven
along the street at the same. time as
a flock of sheep. The appearance of
the sheep caused the horse to swerve
to one side and the buggy came vio.
lently into collision with the tele.
graph pole at Dickson's old corner.
One ;shaft and the harness were
broken and the horse scampered off
at a lively pane without the vehicle,
but was soon captured without doing
any further harm. Beyond the
injury to harness and buggy and a
nervous shock to the occupants of
the rig no other damage.

PUBLIC SCHOOL WORK. -0n ex
amination of classes it has been
found that they aro not ready for
promotion. Our pupils aro too
young for the work they are attempt-
ing. Classes have to be moved to
higher rooms and re -arranged, but
this roust not bo regarded as a pro-
motion. The best thing for the
school is to hold classes at work
they have been over for six months,
or a year. This will give them a
thorough drill on back work end
when pupils are older they can
proceed more quickly with advanc-
ed work, because of their -better
knowledge of work already gone
over. This announcement is made
because so many parents are object-
ing to the promotion of their chil-
dren. Let it be understood that
very few promotions are tnade at
present. Any parent's who prefer
to supply their ehildren with slates
instead of scribblers are at liberty
to do se. If parents will kindly
consult teachers, from time to time,
regarding the progress of their chil-
dren, it will aid teachers very much
in their word, as many children
neglect home work.
