Kennedy was elected by ac- clamation on Wednesday, Feb. 14th, to occupy the seat in the Kinloss Council, vacated by A. Salmon. We think the electors showed wisdom in their choice as we believe Mr. Ken- nedy will make an efficient and con- cientious councillor. Mr. John Webster of West Wawa - nosh, is another home which the angel of death has over -shadowed. hadowed. His eldest son, who was employed at T. Eaton's, Toronto, was a victim of paralysis. The body was brought to Whitechurch ou Monday on the night train, The funeral which took place on Wednesday, to Wingham cemetery, was largely attended. We are sorry to have to relate that Mr. E. Gaunt is seriously ill with blood poisoning in his left foot, but the malady is checked and it is hoped the worst is over. Fears were enter- tained for some time that the foot would have to be amputated. Mr. Gaunt is in great pain all the time, and we assure him that he has the sin- cerest sympathy of the community. Mrs. Thomas Murray passed away to her reward last Saturday. Last June she received a stroke of paralysis, from which she rallied, only to receive a second attack in August, which de- prived her of speech and partially of her reason. A third stroke last Mon- day week ended in death, and a happy release. Mrs. Murray was a consistent member of the Methodist Church, and was identified with Tiffin's appoint- ment. She led an exemplary Chris- tian life; an affectionate wife and mother, and a neighbor who was above reproach. She leaves a sorrow- ing husband, three sons and four daughters to mourn her loss. The funeral, which took place to Tiffin's cemetery on Monday, was very largely attended, which in itself was an evi- dence of the high esteem in which the deceased was held.

EDITOR:—In one of the Toronto papers of last Saturday's issue I notice the following in the Legal questions and answers, and give it for what it may be worth :— J. T., Roseneath, Ont. Question— "The members of the Council of the Township of Almwick have been tak- ing the Municipal World for several years, and have been paying fol. the MOO Out of the funds of the township. Is this Legal ?" Answer—"The Councillors had no more right to take the funds of the municipality to pay for the Municipal World than to use those funds to pay George, eldest son of Mr. John cillors for this county P Webster, of West Wawanosh, aged By inserting above In Advance, yang d..: years will obligee CntTIC, Howick. Wilfred Gamble has been engaged as cheesemaker in Goldstone factory for 1900. Harry Roberts who has bought the Wait -Bateman farm near Lakelet is moving his effects to the premises.

The funds are now in the treasury, and the organ secured. Owing to failing health, Janes King has rented his farni to his broth- er, Bert, but has reserved the house, and will continue to reside there. Farquharson Campbell, brother of Donald Campbell, of the Howick•Car- rick townline, with whom he resided, died on Monday. He was one of the old pioneers. We were pleased to see Jas.

MeEwan, the 400 -acre Minto farmer, bid up to 43c for hens, and Torrance says : "All right, Jimmie, how many will you have? "Oh, I'll take them all." So Mac took horne the whole roost of 80 hens. Messrs, Cyrus Hallman and Thos. Wallace left last week for Oklahoma where they intend to reside in future. Both left fine farms in this township and we would think they would labor assiduously for a long tune in that country, before they have ars fine homes and surroundings as they had here. Richard, son of John Watters, underwent a critical operation last week ; an abscess was formed in the region of appendix necessitating an operation which was successfully performed on Sunday last by Dr. Groves of Fergus assisted by Drs.

Cameron departed this life, aged 30 years. She was a daughter of Mr, Raymann, post- master of Oran brook. Site was buried on Tuesday, 20th inst., at 0rartbr'ook, Mrs. Donald Currie, an old resident of Brussels, died on Friday last and was buried on Sunday at Seaforth, Mrs. Currin had attained the good old age of 81 years, and was prepared for her departure. Her husband died at Brussels some 12 years ago. The past week has been a week of mourning and sadness in Brussels. Last Sunday there were three homes into which death had entered and loved ones departed. Surely "dangers stand thick through all the ground, to push us to the tomb," and to warn us all to be ready. Rev. Armstrong of Ethel preached missionary sermons in the Methodist church, Brussels, last Sabbath. The collections and snbscriptions passed last year's mark. The Rev. gentleman will always be welcome here. Rev. Cosens was at Ethel. We hope Dr. Gundy will be able to come next time. Two young men, Hugh Forsythe and Jno. McCutcheon, who left Morris township with their fathers and fami- lies seven years ago and made their home in Manitoba, have been here for two months on a visit ; they returned home Tuesday last.

There is considerable increase in the number of sugar beet growers for 1908 in the vicinity of Brussels as well as at other points. Those who grew beets for 1905 seern to be well satisfied with the financial results. Eli Smith had about 20 tons of clean beets from ono acre, realizing $80. R. 3. Hoover real- ized nearly $100 from one and a half acres, and others are not far behind. The sad news of the demise of Mrs. D. D. Ferguson, at Winnipeg, on Tuesday morning of last week, was re- ceived here with universal regret. She had gone through a stage of ty- phoid fever, and ten days prior to her 'death a baby son was born. De- ceased's maiden name was Jean Forbes being the eldest daughter of Mrs. Jno. Forbes of Brussels. She was married to D. D. Ferguson last March, and went to Winnipeg shortly after. The remains were brought to her former home in Brussels, from which she was buried on Monday, the 19th. Rev. J. Ross, D. D., now of Port Dalhousie, her former minister at Brussels, con- ducted the funeral rites. Great crowds were present to pay their last respect to the departed. Mr. Ferguson and the family have the sympathy of all the neighborhood. The Brussels Public School Board has written to the member in the Leg- islature, Arch. Hislop, M. P. P., ask- ing hirn to interview the Minister of Education, Dr. Pyne, calling his at- tention to the great disparity between the Government grants allotted to the High and Continuation class schools of Ontario. These schools are doing practically the sante amount of work, and the grant is only $200, whereas the average grant to the High schools is fully $530. Take the Brussels school for the past 3 years, what is the re- cord? In the year 1903, 18 pupils went up for examination and the whole number passed. In 1904, 8 passed out of 14. In 1905, 17 passed out of the 18, or an average 43 passed out of the 50. What could be better, and we greatly question whether the High schools can show such a percentage. Are these not good reasons for an increase of the grant. We hope the Minister will see his way clear, and deal out common justice to the schools having Continuation classes. St. Augustine.
