assume that very few of our readers
ever hear of the annual sale of lands
for text% which takee place in Gode-
FRIDAY, DECESIBER 11, 1808 rich. The date for the sale is next
Tuesday, 15th inst. The list embraces
107 acres in Arhfleld; two 1-8 acre lots
In Goderich township; a block of 50
acres and another of 90 in Howick; an
eighth and quarter acre lot in Ford-
wich; acres in Manchisster; lf acres
in Br user's; a few small lots in Exeter,
and three I acre lots in Wroxeter.
The towns all deal with their own
lands, the county having nothing to
do with then; so far as selling fer ar-
rearages of taxes are concerned.

LOCAL Carole—Last Easley evening
the Baptist church was taxed to its
utmost capacity, it was the regular
ineet ng ot the Clinton Young Peoples
Local Cnion, and the young people of
the several societies were largely re-
presented. Mr Frank Hale, of Gode-
rich, who was a delegate to the Do-
minion a E. convention held in Otta-
wa iri October, gave a very extensive
and instructive report of the sessions
of the convention. The Junior Ban-
ner, won by Huron County for having
the largest number of junior societies
of any county in the Dominion, was on
exhibition and served to enthuse the
young people with fresh vigor and
energy in doing their share in the
,great work of winning the world for
Christ. The President of the County
C. E. Union was also present and gave
an excellent address suitable to the
occasion, which was both pleasing and
instructive.
HAROLD JARVIS. —We are sure that
all lovers of music will thoroughly appreciate the opportunity of hearing in
our own town so distinguished a vocal-
ist as Mr Jarvis, of Detroit, who comes
here on Tuesday, Dec. 29, under the
auspices of the Oddfellows of this
place, and who intend to make this
entertainment worthy of the support
of all music hieing people, and al-
though they do not expect to make
money out of this venture, as the cost
will be nearly $100, yet they desire to
give a strictly high class program, and
we feel sure that a big, if not the big-
gest concert audience that has yet
been gathered, will greet Mr Jarvis,
and a big advance sale of seats are ex-
pected, as all members are pushing the
sale of seats, and an early selection of
seats should be made. Miss Fisher, an
exceedingly clever and talented elocu-
tionist; Mrs Wall, the well-known so-
prano; Mr Foster, Miss Combe are
among the artists who will assist, and
with the reputation that the Oddfel-
lows enjoy for doing things right, will
he fully sustained on this occasion.

cheaper; take for example our Overcoat trade, we never had such a good trade. When we
sell Frieze Overcoats for Men at '$4 50, 85.50 and $8; if we did not sell them in such quanti-
ties we would have to mark them up higher, and our 82 and 83 Pants the same way. Where
