No'vEh1BEHt Furrn.-The .Oraagein n
of Clinton celebrated the fifth of No-
vember last Thursday evening at the
new and commodious residencts of Bro.
Peter Uantelon, Princess etreet. Sp..uue
fifty members along with their wives
assembled. and the spread, if to peed
less to say, was one of tt!Q best ever
tendered under the auspices of 14 0, L.
710. When assembling the brethren
learned of the sad and sudden death of
Bro. Cantelon's sister, Mrs, D. 0. Mc-
Roberts, of London township. In con-
sequence the menu was served in
silence and the after programme de-
ferred until some future time.
I. 0, G. T.—This lodge met as usual
last. Friday evening. A. committee was
appointed to secure the co-operation of
the W. U. T. II. in holding gospel tem-
perance meetings during the coming
winter. The members of this oder
are determined to do all in their power
to stent the tide of withering desola-
tion, which for years has been rolling
on frorn generation toeneration, in-
creasing ever as it rolled; and in their
endeavor to raise fallen humanity, to
abate the severity of maternal anguish,
and to restore departed joys to conjug,
al affections they should have the
hear ty support of all fair-minded peo-
ple.
IMPORTANT.—This is very important
to every person who has any poultry
to sell. The merchants cannot ship
fowl if not properly killed. Fowl
should he starved at least a day and a
half before killing. Pick dry, heads off
all kinds of fowl except turkeys and
ducks. Tie string over the neck so the
blood will not stain other parts of fowl.
Von will get better prices in doing so.
Merchants should refuse fowl if net
properly killed.
WHERE PEOPLE BUY.—
Why do you trade with So -and -So
I asked a maid so wise.
"Why do 1 trade with So-and-So9"
Said she with some surprlso.
"Why—why, I trade with So -and -So r
She continued with laughing oyes,
"The reason I trade with So -and -So,
Is because they advertise."
"If you'll allow I'll tall you, sir,
We ladies, with one accord,
Read and believe advertisements
That appear in THE NEWS -RECORD."
To ALL IT MAY CONCERN.—To tbose
subscribers to TIrE NEWS -RECORD who
were in arrears, who have responded
to an invitation to pay up we return
thanks for their attention to our re-
minder. We regret, however, to say
the number who responded tfl,,c.nr in-
vitation to attend to the call of dirty
by paying a debt. honestly incurred is
very small. To those who have oyer -
looked the notice of
the amount of
their indebtedness, we hope this will
prove a reminder for them to look at
the label on their paper when they can
ascertain the amount due, and remit
at once. "RI"sl:'rESS IS RUMNESS."
IMPORTANT S0NS OF ENOLANI MlcicT-
rNO.--A very enthusiastic meeting of
delegates frorn the different, lodges in
Huron in response to it circular from
the District Deputy calling a meeting
for the purpose of organizing a District
Council to he composed of the subor-
dinate Lodges in Huron, Perth and

A PECULIARITY.—The other day
Mr. Wur. Perdue, of Goderich town-
ship, noticed a hawk after the chick-
ens and secured a shot gun to des-
patch the intruder, but found he did
not have any shot to load up with.
He loaded theun with wire shingle
nails and a small steel roller, but was
too late for the hawk. A few days
after Mr. Perdue had occasion to use
the gun on a mink and killed the
animal. Afterward he was unable to
load the gun, there being au obstruc-
tion in the barrel. An expert found
the steel roller and a number of nails
lodged in it, and it was with difficulty
they were removed. This goes to
show how a serious accident may have
been avoided and bow careful the, in-
dividual should be in the use of a gun.
THE PRICE OF WOOD,—It would
seem that there is no regulation to
gauge the price of wood on the market
in Clinton. TEE NEWS -RECORD iS
of the opinion that the town should
instruct some person in the proper way
to inspect all wood offered tor sale
on the market, and measure and
brand it. People then would know
what they are buying and paying for.
Twenty inch wood is not worth as
much as twedty-two inch. A poor
quality is not worth as much as good
wood. Just now first-class cordwood,
44 inches long, is selling at $3 per cord,
while first-class short wood, from 21
to `L'?, incheslong,principally the longer,
is selling in the single cord at frorn $1.56
to $1.75. A wood inspector is wanted
on the Clinton market, in the interests
both of the buyer and seller,and the
Town Council could make this change
without any extra cost to our people.
SCHOOL BOARD.—The regular meet-
ing of the Public School Board was
held on Monday evening. Present—
Chairman Harland, J. C. ,Stevenson,
I. Jackson, John Gibbing*, J. W. Ir-
win, Dr. Agnew. Inspector Tilley's
report was highly complimentary,
stating that "this school passed a very
satisfactory examination ; the students
were unusually intelligent and gave
evidence of thorough teaching." Prin-
cipal Lough's report for October show-
ed a great falling off owing to irregul-
arity of attendance ; boys enrolled 243,
girls 209, total 452, hut the average was
only 372. Inspector Robb's report was
received and filed. Accounts were
passed as follows :---Thos. McKenzie,
repairs, $20.14; W. Cooper & Co.,
maps and supplies, $9.90. Mr. Cann, a
night school teacher, asked the use of
the Model School free, the Board to
furnish fire and light, but the request
was justly refused. Adjourned.
REMEMBERING THE WIDOW AND
CHILDREN.—One of the noblest works
of the many benevolent organizations
is the provision made for widows and
orphans. Although not known by
many people the Orange Order has an
insurance department which for relia-
bility is second to uone. There are a
good many brethren in this section
who are menibers of it, sortie for ten
years or more. The first to }nee away,
however, was the late Thos. M.Carling,
who carried a policy for $1,000 in his
wife's favor. On behalf of L. O. L. 71))
Bros. I)r. Freeborn and A. M. Todd
yesterday presented Mrs. Carling with
a letter of condolence and a cheque for
$1,1100. The lady desires to thank pub-
licly the ()range Order for the prompt
and satisfactory settlement of her
claire, and highly commends the I nsti-
t.ntinn to the favorable consideration
of the public.
