STRONGLY CANADIAN IN TONE. -On New Year's day the Toronto Empire said editorially :-"THE HURON NEWS- REcoRD has entered upon its seven- teenth• year, and, for a youngster in its teens it is a most creditable sample of growth and development. It is strongly Canadian in tone, as all self- respecting newspapers should be, and it has been conducted with a full sense of what is seemly and honorable. Wo wish THE NEWS -RECORD success, for it deserves it." BRANCHING OUT. -Mr. James Medd, who was properly schooled in the art of tailoring in Clinton, is branching out. He has bought several stores at Dungannon, one of them a merchant tailoring business, from Mr. W. G. Grivin. He takes possession on the 15th.

It is graced with a well -executed photo of the editor, Mr. IL P. Moore. The Free Press is noted for doing fine work, and lots of it, so that the sample before us is no sur - THE TOWN BAN -D. -On New Year's Day the town band delighted our citi- ns by rendering a number of choice lections on Albert street, opposite town hall. Incidentally we over - rd the remark that such a high-class d progressive hand should have its TP as the 33rd Battalion Band. THE NEWS -RECORD would like to see our band in.military uniform. They would be a decided credit to the Battalion, its officers and the town.

A BAD PRACTICE. -There will be 'trouble if some action is not taken to prevent young boys and girls from hanging on sleighs on the public high- way. The week between Christmas and New Years, Albert street was at all hours, every day, almost black with little folks eager to place themselves in perilous positions. Now that school is again open the dangerous sport is most noticeable at morning, noon and night. The authorities should see to it that he practice is prohibited as far as pos- ible.-Otherwise broken limps, sick- ness and death through accident may be the result. firt With every $2.50 worth of goods a Beautiful Plate Glass MIRROR! -��OIt AL`s China Cup and Saucer Come along with your little $2.50, and secure one.

MUR- DOCK." OF INTEREST TO APPLE GROWERS. - A case of some interest to fanners having apples to sell was heard at the Division Court in Watford the other day before Judge Wrn. Elliott of Lon- don. A Warwick farrier named John Rundle sued Dodds & Keller, apple buy- ers, for the value of a number of bar- rels of apples. Defendants claimed apples were frozen in the orchard.

This is a Chiar that looks well in any BRING HiM TO CLINTON.-General Booth, the founder and commander of the Salvation Army, is paying a visit to many important points in Canada. We cannot see why he should not be induced to visit Clinton. Here we are centrally located and the Army has a footing in all parts of Huron. There is not a more central point or better railway accommodation. Thousands of people outside the Army would conte to see and hear General Booth. If the ructnhers of the organization are alive to their interests -and can secure the presence of the General -the greatest, and largest demonstration in its history might be snccesssilly inaugurated and brought to a final issue in Clinton. ON THE TIIRF.sIIOLD OF 95- SEASON- ABLE HINTS. --Did you ever hear the story of the tn;ur whose gnat was taxed for $8M0? He complained to the as- sessors. They said that anything that abutted on the road must pay a tax - $2.00 a foot. You see the man didn't realize that there were two entirely different ways of looking at the matter. He was just like some business men to- day. You ink them what their view of the present situation is, and they will tell you that they are going to "lie low and wait for better times.' But if these men would only look over the fence that separates their business from the rest of the work! they would see that. there is an unusual opportunity before them. We haves had a litti depression, but it is ended. In every direction trade is surprisingly active. There will be more business done in the twelve months of 1895 than in the combined years of 1893 and 1894 ; all authorities agree on this view. In other words, the plums are ripe and they are about to fall from the trees. Yoii want them ; so do all our com- petitors. What will you do?Lie low and wait for thein to fall, trusting to catch there in your hands.? Or, will yon get nn advertisement that will enable you to catch a dozen customers where you now have difficulty to catch one? You catch the idea, if you don't catch the plums. But why not catch the plums ? Why not mix a little courage with your hard work and get something more out of your business than just a mere living 1 Other busi- ness men have done it; some enterpris- ing business men are doing it to -day. You know it has been done ; you know it can be done ; you know it is being •lore ; you know how to do it. Somehow, the rest seems easy. Ad- vertise in THE NEWS -RECORD. room.
