There was a large attendance of Visitors who expressed themselves well pleased both with the proficiency and discipline of the pupils. The teacher was ably assisted by Messrs Tebbutt. Hackett and Bowles, teachers of ad- joining sections. Interesting addressee, were given by Rev J. Oaten, visiting teachers and trustees. A eocial and a very interesting pro- gram Was held at the close of the ex- amination, also a Chi istmas tree for the children. The following address was read at the close of the entertain- ment by MK Anderson: To Ma R. E. lirtowre-Diseat ratinvo-Per• mit tui to address you to -day, that Inc formal manner we may express to you a few words of appreciation which aro in our hearts. You hate been a many Bided man in our midst. Bo we must resort to divisions in our statement. First then, your record as teacher of S. S. No 8 has been unique in the history of rural schools within Huron county. In there fifteen years you have been faithful to a degree rarely found. The generation which Is noW seising hold of the problem of life has had the mould- ing influence of your personal character as teacher, greatly to its benefit. We cannot let you relinquish your position here without thus recording the fact that you have discharged your duties with honor to yourself and advant- age to those wno have enjoyed your instruc- tion. In the second place you have had suction intimate connection with the. Sabbath School of Zion church that all interesecd in its welfare join in these words of sincerest appreciation, Successful work in Sobbatli School demands character in the worker. This you have posseosed to an eminent degree and wlaen the near future your projected removal from 'us severs your connection with the work in this department, we want you to 'know that you will leave a vacancy lard to fill and that we should feel at your departures many riigrets. Again your church relation with us has been a close one,and in every particular such aa might be the envy of us all. Whether hi preaching or in practice we have your conception of the Christ life to be lofty, and we have been helped to the realization of our ideals by your Christly living', and. as a man and a citizen you have shown us how trne patriots should live. And now, sir,we were met the other day by dear old Santa Claus, who informed us that his faith in his personality was waning. Ro insisted that you. were not altogether in fault in this as he had neglected you, He gave us this fur coat and instructed us to try and restore your faith in him by seeing you received it as near Christ mas aa possible' we hope, sir, you are now re- stored to and confirmed in the fsith of your childhood. we cannot close without expressing the ove which we feel for Mrs Brown, who has thist sh ld be assisted • • SUMIL110rh1111 • SERIOVS VIRE.-On Xmas day the house and contents of Mr Noble Lovett were entirely destroyed; there ,being nobody at hon3e the fire got Quite a etart before it was noticed.

Mr and Mrs Lovett had iust been away from home about an hour when the fire started, having gone to spend the day with Mr and Mrs Tyner, and at this season of the year to be left without a home is very sad.
