He spent a few days with Mr. John John- ston, Rattenbury street, and renewed his -friendship with Rev. G. W. An- drews at Holinesville, and with many friends in Seaforth and McKillop. He naturally finds many changes in Hur- on after an absence of so many years. For years he farmed, but is now living retired. Mr. Lowe will visit relatives at Stratford before he returns home. THE WOODMEN OF THE WORLD. -- Among the latest of the societies that have come into favor with those who are carrying life assurance on the monthlyassessmentsystem is theWood- men of the World. It had its origin, like almost all the fraternal organiza- tions with which we are now so fatniliar, in the land across the lakes. But three years ago those who were members of the order in Canada believed they could carry riaks at a much lesser rate if separated from their brethren in the United States. They consequently sought and obtained a Dominion char- ter and since then have made rapid strides. In this province alone over 80 eaimps have been formed in the last two years Listowel, Stratford, Clin- ton and years, being the last to be added to tbe list. The object of this society is to furnish life assurance at the lowest possible cost, consistent with perfect safety. This they do by avoiding the payment of high salaries to the head officers, and by offering extra inducement to the younger men, thus' filling their ranks with the young ittlid: vigcfr its and leaving old and fail- ing to seek assurance elsewhere. The society is nrlder Dominion inspection and is thereby guaranteed perfectly ,'afe. The rates vary from 85 cents per month to those under 21,years, to 60 cents per month to those under forty for $[GOD fnsuranc&'. Over forty the rates aro very much increaset4 as the desire is for younger men.

THE VOLUNTEERS Os''8fl--here will be an anniversary celebration of the volunteers of '66 and their friends at the Point Farm on March 9th next, for which THE NEWS -RECORD acknow- ledges a complimentary ticket from the secretary, Mr. J. J. Wright. The committee of management is made up of Lieut. Horten, Capt. McGregor, Quarter -Master Beck, Capt. Montgom- ery, Robt. Ellis and Capt. Dancey. We are pleased to have at this particu- lar time such a public announcement. It goes to show that tbe spirit of loyal- ty to Queen and Country is not on the wane, and that the survivors of '88 desire to perpetuate and keep alive memories of the past. There should be a large attendance at this anniver- sary celebration. RUNAWAY. -A horse belonging to Mr. George Levis, Massey -Harris agent of Clinton, made things interesting for a while on Main street on Tuesday af- ternoon. Mr. Levis was driving to- wards the railway station, and when nearly in front of Dick's hotel attempt- ed to turn around. In doing so the cutter upset, frightening the horse, •whish made up the street at a lively pace. At the Queen's hotel it took to the sidewalk and after taking the cutter over a pump, returned to the road, and cotinued its peregrin ations on up North Main street for some distance, when it trotted into a yard and wasthen captured. Strange to say neither horse, cutter, nor occupants were 'ally the worse for the little escapade.-Seaforth Expositor. DEATH OF WILLIAM TaDFORD.-It is with extreme regret we announce the death of William, son of Mr. John Tedford, aged 23 years, 3 months and 4 days. He died last Thursday at the residence of his parents. The deceased had for some time been clerking in a dry goods store in Chicago and was forced to return , home over a year ago. He had contract- ed a severe cold, which under- mined the young man's constitution, and he finally succumbed to that dread disease, consumption. He a was thoroughly honest and reliable young man and had the confidence of his employers. The funeral to Clinton cenietery on Sunday was very largely attended. General regret is ex- pressed at the taking off of such a promising young life. Tun 12TH JULY, 1898. -As will he no- ticed in another column, the County Orange Lodge of South Hurop has de- cided to celebrate, this year, at Gode- rich. The business men there have subscrihed several hundred dollars to- ward the undertaking and we under- stand complete success is already assur- ed. A celebration of this kind means an immense amount of labor and ex- pense to bring it to a successful issue and the business men and Orangemen of Goderich realize this. All the bre- thren make out of these celebrations is criticism and whatever honor there is attached to such work. Goderich is advertising the county seat as a sum- mer resort and manufacturing town. The Council there should he asked to make an appropriation of $100 for ad- vertising purposes -to advertise the 12th July celebration. Every business man should become interested and every citizen should lend a hand in do- ing something to assist the promoters. If theydo, and we expect they will, one of the greatest gatherings ever witnessed in Western Ontario will he seen at Goderich on the 12th of July. c a T 0 t rc 0 a 5 fe t} tl or so 0 qr pr a h a rn T th • co h tr in re u pr to ar th do pa en w ee co T T in an M el w 0 Ul ho Re Fi 01 W SOUTH HURON ORANGEMEN. -In AC ordance with the Constitution Sout Huron County Orangemen assemble t Exeter on Tuesday of last week be large and comfortable hall w well filled, the attendance being in exces f many former years.
