PROSPERING. —Mr. Joseph Walker, a graduate from THE NEws-Ruccm office, is evidently propering in the windy city —Chicago. For several years he has been a partner in a printing firni there.

There was a good turnout and the hearts of the little ones ---the future men and women of this fair Dominion— fairly leaped with joy. Mr. W. J. as Santa Claus was, as he always is, a great success. Rev. Mr.. Fraerlie ac- cupied the chair and the intellectual programme was one of the best, ever rendered. It consisted of Christmas carols, recitations, etc, THE DOMINfON DRAUGHT HORSE SOCIETY. —This society held their annual meeting in Clinton an Wednesday last. John McMillan, M. P., occupied the chair. The cauncil's report, which was adopted, ehowed the membership to be 250 and 350 entries for tile third volume. There are no liabilities and a cash balance in the bank of over $1,600. The recom- mendations of the council approved in- clude the suspension of alt members whe are over two years in arrears for annual dues at Feb. let, 1893 no meinberto-he allowed the priviOf regis tratiou unless he be clear of all arrear ages at. the time of making an entry; the reduction of the annual dues from $1 to 50 cents; and other provisions re- garding the issuing of duplicate certifi- cates of registration, and strengthening the safeguards against fraud in pedi- grees. The officers elected are: Mr. John McMillan, president; Mr. D. Mc-. [ntoeh, vice-president; Mr. James Mit- chell, Secretary; Mr. James Connolly, )Goderich township, treasurer. The retiring members of the Council were re-elected, Mr. Thos. McLauchlin, of Greg, taking the place of Mr. J. J. Fisher. AMONG Tnn APPLES. —Mr. John West, of Lucknow, who was the loading packer for- Cook & Cook, of Clinton, apple dealers at Lucknow, enclos- ed cards in about, a dozen barrels, asking the receiver to write him how they turned out.. Mr. West has just reoeiv. ed a reply from one purchaser, a Mr. Lee, of Bolton, Lancashire, England, in which he says I enclose a card written I presume by you, and enclosed in a barrel eiBaldwies; marked Cook & Cook and "horse -shoo" brand. You ask how they turn out? Well, they are tip top, color good, pecking splendid, and have few Iota tiny better. The only fault is that they might be a little larger. eNe better color. The condition was per. fectly bright. I purchased them from Connolly & Co., brokers in fruit, Liver- pool, at 'public sale, on Nov. 22, and in a lot of mixtures got them at 14s. and 3d., which means in Canadian money $3.75 per barrel. Mr. Lee, the writer, goes on to say that he Would be happy to hear from Mr. West, aed if an English- man, would enjoy hunting up his friends in the Old Land. Mr. Lee closes his nice business and friendly combined letter, by Wishing Mr. West "a right down good British merry Xmas. and a most prosperous New Year." ' JOINED THE MAJORITT.—One by one the early residents are passing to their re- ward. Last Wednesday Harriet Pear. son, a well known and respected lady of Clinton, joined the silent majority. For av year or more she suffered extremely from cancer, inwardly. During all that time the best medical skill and the kindest attention,"good care and atten- tive nursing were of no avail. The case was one of the kind that death was the only possible cure or relief for. Her *go was but 47. For many years the de- ceased was a firm and consistent mem- ber of St. Paul's church. To the major - Hy and the best people of Clinton she was long known as e faithful Christian and upright woman. In her profession iv nurse the deceased was endeared to many who will deeply mourn her death. To her daughter Hattie the sym- pathy of our'people is extended. The ffineral took place from the residence of leir. Thos. Sheppard last Friday to St. Nuns church, where service was held, and from thence to Clinton cemetery. There was a good attendance, Rev. Mr. Fairlie conducting the beautiful burial service, and tbe pall bearers being Meagre. R. Irwin, James Sheppard, James TWitehell, Postnvaater Fair, II. E. Walker soot Wm. Dodds: Robins Bros., Book Store and News Dot, McKay Block, Clinton. SCHOOL TALE. —The letter from Prin- cipal Lough tie the Public School Board, which appears in another column, is timely. It goe& to show that the aver- age cost per pupil for the 90 towns of Ontario is $9.70. Clinton costs $6.25, less than 70 Ontario towns, is higher than 18 others and the same as one. Our cost is even lower than neighboring towns. THE, NEWS RECORD is pleased that these figures are made public offici- ally, for they will tend greatly to enlight en the electors of Clinton. But we do not desire our people to understand that Ten News-Re:coup was finding fault with the cost of our Public School sys- tem. Far from it Of coulee we refer- red to the great cost of our sohools and pointed out the lack of interest mani felted in school matters citizens of Clinton. Eight iniof the 19 collected goes for purposes. Many people are disposed to grumble at the coat but stop right there. Mr. Lough is A pains taking and affidiant prineipah manifests deep interest and la a faithful and hard woilter. The people of Clinton know thia and we think are willing to concede. But what Tile NEWS- ReCteite desires is to hays the people manifest more interest in the schools and school Waal matters. • ESLEY & CO. HOLIDAY ATTRACTIO.
