CHRISTMAS TRADE.—For many rea- sons the competition for the Christmas trade will he more keen this year than ever before. Business men are aware of the fact, and are cutting prices to the lowest rnargin possible.

When less than two years ago Rev A. H. Drumm, pastor of the Presbyte- rian church at Avonton, suggested that the building of a Sunday school room was desirable, and added that he would sotfer no objection if an auditorium Were built above the school room, he little thought that he would to -day be preaching in what is one of the most complete country churches in Perth =eoursty. ,buileas,a r'esult„ofstlie;.siiggesr tion. The Presbyterian church at Av onton.is made up of an offshoot from the Stratford and Motherwell congre- gations, and the first church, a frame structure, was erected about thirty - 'seven yeitrs ago. The present pastor is Rev A. H. Drumm, and the erection of '. he handsome new church stands as a fitting monuinent to his energy and worth as a pastor. Mr Drumm is now in the fourth year of his pastorate, and in that short time the church has made real substantial progress that must be gratifying to himself as well as to the congregation. When he took charge there was a debt on the old church of long standing and considerablepropor- tions. That is now a thing of the past and in its place is the new church, which was dedicated to the service of God yesterday. The church itself is really a city structure in the country, except perhaps in the matter of size.— Stratford Herald. CQUNT) COMMISSIONER'S REPORT, Mr Ansley referred to the recent fire at Bluevale bridge. Duff & Stewart's saw mill, situate about 30 feet from the bridge, was burned; the wind was blowing towards the bridge, which would have been destroyed, had it not been'for the exertions of a few, who at considerable risk went into the river to save the bridge, which they succeed- ed in doing, and have since suffered considerable from exposure. If the bridge had been destroyed, it would have meant a loss $300, and the parties who saved it, think the council should do something towards remunerating therp. The council made arant of $40. The improvements under con- tract at the time of the June meeting, and also the work arranged for at that session have been done. We found it necessary to erect several small bridges that were not mentioned at your last meeting. According to your instruc- tions, I examined the "Gully" bridge, situated in the township of Stephen, and found it in verygood repair. It does not appear to he on or across the boundary of Stephen and Bosanquet, nor on the lake shore road, but is situ- ated op a road that runs parallel with the river and in Stephen, The .follow- ing are some of the bridges that should be rebuilt early in 1895:—The Holmes - vide bridge, the bridge on con. 9, How - ick, and the Bluevale bridge. The two latter will only require the superstruc- ture, as the abutments are good enough for the support of another bridge. The Blyth bridge will require to be rebuilt at an early date. I think this bridge should be of, iron or steel, as the stone .abutnet its are already there. It is a small bridge, so the cost will not he very great. It would be well to have the tenders for three bridges ready to be opened at the January meeting. There will likely be several other bridges to be rebuilt in 1895. cher of leading Summaryof Count ure, f it could y •ohibiti n ques- f Proceedings. der h n a o er RONTO ince recei ed it is utterly grate Schoots. abolished, .is it.

All the repairs ordered at the June meeting have been made. There are 25 ,prisoners in custody, 8 females and 17 males, Of the females 3 are insane, all dangerous; they have been duly re- ported, and are avaiting removal to the asylum. Two are under sentence for street walking, and 3 are commit- ted as vagrants, viz:—Elizabeth Shep- pard, Colborne township; Sarah Mc- Kay, Goderich; Mary J. Donaldson, McKillop; all committed by C. Seager, Police Magistrate. Of the males 3 are insane, one a bad case. All have been examined' and reported. and are now awaiting removal to the asylum. One is under sentence for attempted rape, and 13 are committed as vagrants, all for 6 months except 3, and these are for 2, 4 and 5 months, as follows: —W. Ray, Ashfield; Rich. Burton, Colborne; Moses Burling, Blyth; Geo. Constable. Seaforth; Robt. Wallace, Tuckersrnith; David White, Seaforth; C. Dulinage, .0edereh sT; sliarlei =sot defais I ssi3 Seaforth ; D. McLennan, Durham; T. Ryan, Chatham, and Wm. King, Sea - forth. Of the vagrants 8 are totally unable to earn a living. Their ages run from 59 to 35 years. I may here, state that in 1893 we had only 11 pris- oners in custody, while we now have 25, and in the month of October this year we had a daily average of I5. In Nov. the average was 22, nearly three times that of the same month in the previous year, and should the usual in- flux for the next 5 or 6 weeks take place, the gaol will certainly be very much overcrowded. The Council met on Thursday of last week, all the members present except Messrs Hamden, Kennedy and Oliver. Dr. Smith and G. Good, Seaforth, re- signed as trustees of the Collegiate, and W. D. Bright and Dr. Scott were ap- pointed in their stead. Mr Griffin, of Ashfleld, asked to be excused from duty, owing to the death of his wife, and on motion the council adjourned for half a day. The sum of $10 was paid Rev Mr Carrier, of Grand Bend, for injuries sustained by a wash-out. A lot of minor matters were referred to various committees. EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE'S REPORT. After considering the House of Ref- uge report, we recommend thtit it be carried out in full. The Committee recommended that the original motion in reference to the Collegiate Institutes, stands, that is, that they receive the sums originally granted, but no ar- rearages. It was recommended that no action be taken on the motion of Mr Gray, to obtain opinion of County Solicitor as to claim of Collegiate In- stitutes. It was recommended that the salary of the Secretary of the County Board of Examiners be $20. HOUsa OF REFUGE COMMITTEE. The Committee reported that they had purchased the land for the House of Refuge; the title was passed by the Co, Solicitor, and deed and title paper are now in possessic n of the Co. Clerk. The Committee had accepted the plan of rt,wler &Fowler, architects, and Mr FiUvler had been present at a meet- ing of the Committee, in order that they" might be a thorough understand- ing; it was agreed to retain this firm to supervise the building of the Ilottse of Refuge, at 2 per cent on cost, one member of the firm to be continually( on the ground during the whole course, of the building. Reference was made to the advertising for tenders and re\ ceipt of 58 in reply thereto. All of these were examined by the Committee, who recommended the acceptance of that of S, S.
