EARLY CLosING.-The question of early:closing by-law should be mit into force, or rather the merchants 'n town ought to agree among them.. elves to close their stores certain nights in the week. One solution of the problem is that we think ft nothiig'but fair that the merchants themselves, to say nothing about, their clerks, should have some even." Ings to themselves and 'not have to keep their noses dawn on the grind. stone from early morning tis late at night, week in and week out, year" after year. Those who follow this up during their life in business do not know that they'are living, never having a moment for pleasure or re• creation of any kind whsttever. We feel satisfied that the buying public will bear 118 out in Old and, should the merchants agree to close their respective shops at an early. hour, would govern themselves accord- ingly and do their shopping earlier in the day, All other towns and villages -many of them smaller than Blyth -have been in the habit of closing early for some years, so why should the thriving village of Blyth be 100 years behind the times. Get busy and let everyone agree to close their respective places of business during the summer on certain evenings, starting by May 110, Death Calls Dr. Willoughby. Hong Dt'.

Oddfollowe at Church. The Blyth Lodge of the Iniepen. dent Order of Oddfellows, No. 366, celebrated the 89th anniversary of the Order on Sunday by attending service in the evening at the Metho- dist church, As no invitations were sent to other lodges, about forty members of the lodge msrehed to the church, Robt. Sloan being marshal]. Itev, S. Anderson, pastor, was the preacher. As a scriptural lesson he read the second chapter of Hebrews. Ile took his subject from the 21st verse of tine 1st chapter cf Philip- pians. "Far to me to live is Christ." He stated in preaching this ser- mon that he would not give the usual class of sermons preached on these occasions, but decided that a gospel sermon would be a benefit to the members as well as the congre- gation and in choosing this text that it might help everyone and they might say as Paul said "For to me Go live is Christ." The life of Pau) was presented to the congregations and showed the results after eonver. sion: He showed the folly of living for either business of pleasure. Hymns were sung that were fs- nines to everyone and the choir gave two excellent anthems, The Oddfellows was founded at Baltimore on April 260, 1819, by Thos, Wildey and four others, These men sowed better than they new for now the organization has roaches in Germany, Australia, he Orient and other countries.
