TEACHERS.— The Executive Com- mittee of 'West Huron Teacher's As- sociation met at Goderich end com- pleted arrangements for the fall meet Ing of the association. It will be held in Goderrch on Oct. 3-4, the first session to commence at 7.30 p.m. 5TH CLASS IN PUBLIC SCHOOL—The statement in this weeks News -Record that the Collegiate Institute Board had expressed itself as opposed to the intro- puction of 5th Class work in the Public School, is incorrect, the fact being that the Board has taken no action in the matter. QUIET AND ORDERLY.—Chief Win- dred, of Sarnia, remarked last week that Clinton was a most quiet and orderly town, as he had seen no "drunks" or "disorderlies" since he was in town. He said further, that it was a very rare thing when there was not at least one or two prisoners be- fore the P. M. every morning in Sarnia. PLENTY OF HAY.—The scare on the scarcity of hay is said by those suppos- ed to be posted to be very much exag- gerated and that the price will be lower than is anticipated. The lower pro- vinces are not only cutting a large crop this season, but also have thou- sands of tons of last year's hay on hand. PEOPLE WHO TRAVEL.—W. Jackson reports the following travellers:—J. R. Holmes, H. Catling and J. Cantelon for Manitoba on Tuesday's excursion; Miss Mary Ross for Fargo, Dak.; J. C. Gilroy for Montreal; C. C. Rance, King- ston; Mrs Jas. McM tth, Kina•ston; W.

The Collegiate gave instruction for half the day, observing the afternoon as a holiday. The band came out in the afternoon and gave several popular and well executed selectione. TRAVELLERS.—Mrs Goodfellow who has been visitng her parents dnring summer months, returned on Friday to her home in Lowell, Mass., going via C. P.R. to Montreal and Boston and Main route to Lowell.=Mrs Bert. Potts ac- companied Mrs Fred. Potts cf Detroit to the latter's home, going by steamer Carmona. They were ticketed by C.P. R. Agent, A. T. Cooper. PAINFUL ACCIDENT.—One day last week the three year old son of Mt Bacon, Toronto, (son-inslaw of Mr A. Gorrell) met with an exceedingly pain- ful accident. The child pulled a frying - pan off the stove, the hot contents thereof pouring over his breast and limbs, scalding him so severely that in removing his clothes, the skin came off. For a time the little fellow's life was in danger, but he is now nearly well again. THE HURON CENTRAL.—Though much interest is not taken in exhibit- ions until after the Toronto Industrial and Western fairs, still the secretary of the Huron Central, Mr. Wm. Coats. reports a steady inquiry for prize lists and the prospects are that the coming exhibition will be one of the most suc- cessful held. Exhibitors should com- mence early to select their exhibits and by making their entries early both they and the secretary will be saved unneessary t rouble. NEWSPAPER NOTES.—The Wroxeter Advocate has ceased to exist, and the plant has been moved to Fordwich; the proprietor might have known he could not spread himself as he tried at a place like Wroxeter.—We are surprised at the number of papers accepting "Nursery ads" on the basals offered. The Blyth Standard has extended its borders very materially. Mr Simons, of Wingharn, intends to start a paper at Wroxeter. MODELITES.—The following are the Modelites in attendance at Clinton Model School:—Misses Aitcheson, Bell, Bentley, Crich, Consitt, Caves, Doherty, Jamiesob, Johnson, Higgins, Murch, McNaughton, McCut.ebean, McCallum, Pearson, Padfield, Shep- herd, Turner, Vansione, Messrs Breckenridge, Bradwin, Oourtice, Creech, Campbell, Duff, Hartley, Hogan, Jeckell, Russell, Smith, Whidden, Dunlip. A CORRECTION.—THE EXPOSITOR SAYS:—A paragraph appeared in our Huron notes last week to the effect that nodgens Brothers, of Clinton had compromised with their creditors for 60 cents on the 9, This was on error. The firm writing to us says. As we have only been in business one week, this is obviously a mistake, What we have done is; Purchased the stock of the estate of John Hodgens, at 60 cents ou the S. This will he seen is quite a different thing, and we are sorry the. mistake occurred. The Messrs Hodgens Bros. are most estim- able young men, who have a thorough business training, and with the enter - prizing spirit and close attention to business, which has hitherto been ehartttteristic with them, there is riot rltirifl danger of soy+ suchfate ovdrtak-- ifi theta. , *. Wennao.—North St. church, Gode- I rich, was the scene of a happy event it on Wednesday, when Mr J. K. Greig, one of the popular young businese men of Seaforth, was married to Miss Min- nie Acheson, one of the favorites of the circular town, and daughter of 1VIr J Acheson The bride was assisted by her sister and cousin, while Mr Greig had the support of Mr Cowan, of Seaforth, and Mr R. J. Macdonald, of Clinton. Among�the guests pres- ent were Mr and Mrs J. W. Chidley, Mrs Greig, Mr T. Jackson,r., and Misses Doherty and Gor ref, Clinton. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Jos.
