To Represent Ontario Public School Teachers on the Advisory Council Ot Education. At the last o f the Ontario. s session Legislature, an Act waspassed, estab- lishing an ADVISORY CouwwIL to con- fer with the Minister of Education on questions pertaining to educational afl'aire.• To this Council, the Public School teachers of Ontario, holding permanent certificates and engaged in teaching, are entitled to send four representatives. The first election will be held in the latter part of Octo- ber, and the voting papers must be re- turned to the department not later than the first Wednesday in Novem- ber. The Advance understands that Mr. A. H. Musgrove, Principal Wingham Public School, has been asked to be a candidate for the Advisory Council, and that he has consented. We are quite sure that Mr. Musgrove would prove an able and efficient representa- tive of the Public School teachers of Ontario. Having taught for a num- ber of years in rural schools, he is fully aware of their needs and require- .' equire- . ments. In addition to this, his fifteen years' experience as Principal of Wingham Public School (where he has successfully conducted Entrance, Leaving and Continuation classes) eminently qualifies him to intelligent- ly represent those engaged in the sante work. - In addition to these qualifications, Mr. Musgrove has been a regular at- tendant at the meetings of the On- tario Educational Association, and has taken an active interest in all its proceedings. In 1898, he was honored by being unanimously elected Presi- dont of the Public School section of the Association. He has a wide know- ledge of questions of a more general nature, and is quite competent to ex- press his views in a clear, convincing manner, either in committee, or on platform. His temperament, sense of fairness and sterling honesty would not permit him to •be extreme, nor to sanction what he deemed to be dis- honest or unjust. We hope to have the pleasure of re- porting Mr. Musgrove's election, feel- ing assured that he would make a most excellent and faithful represen- tative of the Public School Teachers of Ontario, THE McMASTER BAND. Five young men, graduates of Mc- Master University, have been holding evangelistic meetings in the Baptist church during the past week, and we venture to say that never has the Gos- pel been more plainly or directly preached in Wingham. There is nothing of the "however" and the "nevertheless" in their speak- ing. They believe and are sure, and although University men and ac- quainted with the latest thought on scientific and religious subjects, it is the simple Gospel story that they give their hearers. Man's sin and God's 4 willingness to save is their theme, and never is the cross of Calvary obscured by the drapings of dogma, or the mists of speculation ; nor is the Resur- rection treated as merely a beautiful dream of her, who loved Jesus much, because she. had been forgiven much, but a living Christ is preached and the only hope for a dying world. Whe- ther it is a, Williamson pouring out his soul in matchless consecrated song, or a Rae stirring the hearts of the people with earnest thoughtful words, or a Warner carrying the burden of souls in prayer to the throne of the All Father, or a McKechnie address- ing the unsaved with closely reasoned appeals, or a Cameron presenting the picture of the Master, set in glowing periods, the one object is to bring men to a knowledge of their Saviour, It is "the old time religion" that is sung and preached but not only as the religion of the "old time," but of the glorious "new time"; not as the religion of the past time alone, but of the present time, of the future time— the religion for life time, the religion for a death time, the religion for all time, and the religion for all eternity. Two of these young ;nen are slated for the Foreign Itlission field. In a few months, Mr. Rae goes to "Darkest Africa," to the Congo country, where, at the present time, Baptist mission- aries are being imprisoned for dating to lift up their voices against the dreadful atrocities being perpetrated on the natives in that region. Mr. Warner is to go to India, where the Canadian Baptists are doing a great work among the Telegus. The other members of the band. etre merely awaiting the call to go 'where the Ding's business demands attention, whether it be on the foreign field or in the home land. God has been. pleased to greatly bless the labors of the McMaster Band hi evangelistic work and has conferred on there the great honor of turning many to righteousness, Their stay in Wingham must necessarily be short, and nobody should usury heating them before they lows to ru. AN IMPORTANT MATTER In January last, the Advance called atef fact pilon to be f ice that the interests r of the Town of Wingham are bccon- ing so many and various, that some means must soon be devised to sys- tematize the work, and reduce the responsibility and burden resting up- on the Mayor and Council. It is too much to expect of Councillors, in ad- dition to giving their time and thought to the general management of the Town affairs, to watch the de- tails of every department, and give them the proper thought and atten- tion at the right time. If something is not done soon, it will be next to im- possible to get citizens to sacrifice their time and business interests for the sake of the general public, who as a rule are not very appreciative of the sacrifices of time and effort that are given to the municipality. At the last meeting of the Town Council this was especially notedand Mayor Bell endorsed the plan suggest- ed by the Advance in January last, of placing the Waterworks at least in charge of a Commissioner. The details of the general adminis- tration of the Town affairs aro suffi- cient to engage the attention of the Council. But when to the general management there is added the care of the Electric Light, the work is largely increased. When to this you add the Waterworks and the neces- sary contracts and arrangements with watertakers, rates, collections, etc., the Committee work of the Council becomes a burden that makes a citi- zen pause before accepting a seat at the Council Board, with all that it means. Besides, if the Departments of Light and Water were placed in the hands of a Commissioner, we believe the work would in many cases receive closer attention. Not that the Coun- cil are neglectful or careless (we are not finding fault) but with their own business affairs they cannot possibly give, say the Waterworks, the atten- tion that it is demanding at the pres- ent time, and the work is on the in- crease. Can we expect, or is it fair to ask men of ability to spend their time and thought in looking after these im- portant details gratis, at the sacrifice of their own business, and then after doing tjieir best, to he rewarded by criticism bordering on abuse ? It is not. The Advance believes the time is at hand when a change must be made. The placing of the Electric Light or Waterworks, or both, in the charge of a Commissioner would, in the end, result in unproved methods and management, and a gain to the municipality in dollars and cents. Sooner or later, it must be done. Think it over, As it is at present, Council meetings will soon be a thing of dread to Coun- cillors as well as the press reporters. Finance committee, Electric Light ac- counts, Waterworks contracts and irnprovements, general Council work, etc., etc., with innumerable details, from 7.30 to 11 p. rn., make a heavy program for one evening, without any intermission either. There is another fact that should not be overlooked. As it is at pres- ent, citizens seen; to have the privi- lege of putting down pipes when, where and how they wish, and in tune there is -sure to be confusion and trouble, and some work now done may prove useless, when proper mains are put in. With a Commissioner and proper system established, this would be prevented and uniformity would prevail. The passage of a By-law for $3,000 or $5,000 would enable the Council to put in proper mains where necessary, and the rates would, we feel sure, cover both sinking fund and interest. The main question, however, is- -"What is best in the interests of the Town ?" The Local Markets. Wheat, OSc ; oats, 30c ; flour, $1.90 to $2.65 ; butter, 20c ; eggs, 17c ; chic- kens, 10c per lb.; live hogs, $6.00 ; hay, $7 to $9 per ton. For city mar- kets see page 2. Westward Bound. The following passengers were tick- eted for the West on Tuesday, by Mr. Beemer, C. P. R. agent :—J. Mit- chell, Ed, McDowell, H. J. Wightman, Chas. Campbell, Robt, McDowell, Jas. Golley, Robt.

The Advance regrets to hear of the accident that befell Mr. John McCool on Monday afternoon, While at work in the Bell factory, his thumb was caught in the cogs of the machine, was twisted off and fell to the floor. As Mr. McCool lost the thumb of the other hand some tithe ago, this acci- dent leaves him ththbless, and seri- ously handieaps hien in life activities; besides, it will lay him off work for some time. Mr, McCool receives sin- cere sympathy. p Y Customers trill find us in our new stand, with a fine and fashionable stoek of fall 'millinery ; next door to Hanfew,w-Nisi Little.

Mr. Sillick of Lower Wingham has left a few relics of by -gone days on ex- hibition in the window of the Advance office. One is an ancient pair of shears, evidently forged many years ago on the anvil of a blacksmith shop. A shallow iron dish, resembling the old-time lampfor bolding tallow and wick, is a second relic. These were ploughed up years ago by Mr. Sillick. A third article is a tobacco box, possi- bly 200 or 300 years old ; it belonged to Mr. Sillick's great -great-grandfather, and was brought to this country sev- enty years ago by Mr. Sillick's father, to whom it had been handed clown from his great-grandfather.

The mill is now running and Mr. Howson solicits the patronage of the public. His advt, came too late for this issue, but he quotes flour from $1,80 to $2,40, The large expense involved in the in- provements made, should result in in- creased business to Wingham Flour Mills. Will Continue Services. The McMaster Band will continue special services all next week, when the meetings will be held in the Opera House each evening at 7.30. On Fri -- day afternoon of this week, at 4.15, a Mass meeting will be held in the Bap- tist Church for the children.

Don't forget the meeting for men only at 4.15 Sunday afternoon, in the Opera House. Public School Board. All the members were present at the regular monthly meeting of the School Board on Tuesday evening. The Sec- retary reported that the Government grant of $200 for Continuation class had been received, also $100 special .grant. The following accounts were presented :—J. Bugg & Son, $20,80 ; A. Schaefer, $5.90. The account of Brown & Son, for slating the roof of the School and repairing the deck, was larger than expected, and amounted to $660. However, the roof has been measured correctly and the work done, so there was no option as to payment. On ;notion of Trustees Hall and Ho- muth, the account was accepted and $460 ordered to be paid thereon. The other accounts passed, on motion of Trustees Moore and Ross. The sala- ries, rents, etc., also passed. The care- taker was allowed $10 for extra work reproving the debris of the old roof, etc., and the Board adjourned, Fon Se.LE.—Three-fourths acre of A I Corn ; one horse, harness and bobs ; a cow, heifer, churn, coal heat- er, and various other articles.—Sand, Weeks, Lower Town, Happily Wedded. A quiet, but nevertheless interest- ing, wedding was the attraction on Thursday evening last, at the hour of seven o'clock, at the home of Mr, and Mrs. J. B. Cummings, Victoria street, when • their youngest daughter, Miss Jean, became the bride of Mr. A. P. Stewart, Contractor, of Lucknow. Rev. D. Perrie spoke the words that made the happy twain ONE, after which congratulations followed, and a tastily - prepared wedding luncheon was enjoyed. The bride, having been for some time engaged in teaching, will bring to her new home much of culture and refinement. She was be- comingly dressed in braided :null over taffeta. Among the numerous pres- ents were—a new upright piano, a cheque for $100, a set of Limoges din- ner ware, some sterling silver and valuable cutlery. During the even- ing Mr. and Mrs. Stewart left for their home in Lucknow, accompanied by sincere wishes for their future pros- perity and happiness. A Popular School. Last week we announced that Wing - ham High School had opened with a class organization comprising 110 pu- pils. This week the attendance has increased to 126, with more to follow. Wingham is to be, and already is, a popular Educational centre. For a new school to open -with so large an attendance is, as we remarked last week, almost phenomenal, for many long-established institutions have less. The statement that Wingham was a suitable centre for a High School is now proven beyond the possibility of contradiction. With the fees from pupils, the money spent for board, lodging, books, stationery, etc., new families moving into town, each one contributing its quota to the general circulation of money, the annual de- benture for the payment of debt crea- ted by establishment of the High School should seareely be felt. Be- sides, it has caused property not only to retain its value, but . in some cases it has increased that value, Lastly, but not least, it has placed high School advantages within easy reach of every family in Wingham and sur- rounding country. We can trust env High School Board and the Teachers to do their utmost to make the School a continued success, for with it:, is bound up the prosperity of the Town of Wingharn. BVILIIT.I2s. A carload To to c of fresh Durham Cement to hand; also the best plastering hair always on band eleven pounds to the bushel) at the • Winghani Cement Factory,— Sinien 111itolte.l, Manager, September Month. The days are still warm, but grow- ing shorter very rapidly. The Sep- tember evenings are usually so balmy and restfulthat there seems little cause yet to regret the flight of aura - neer, and the loveliest' venings of the year in Canada are frequently in this month. Truly, the longest summer days are not many in number. For a few weeks, before and after the stam- mer solstice, the sun was above the horizon from about 4.30 a. m. till eight o'clock in the evening, fifteen and a half hours, and twilight lasted for nearly an hour longer at each end of the day. On the first of 'August the day had shortened by an hour, and by the first of September we had two and a quarter hours less of daylight than on the 21st of June. On the 23rd of this month the autumnal equinox will be reached, the time of equal day and night, and after that we must expect the longer nights and shorter days. During September it is usual to have what in the Old Country is called the Harvest Moon. The full moon which occurs nearest to the autumnal -equi- nox, is so called because it rises from night to night more nearly after sun- set than any other full moon of the year. Conditions are, therefore, fa- vorable in rural parts of the country fox' evening work in caring for late crops. This year, however, the full moon of the 2nd of October occurs nearer to the equinox than the Sep- tember moon. DR, OVENS, M.
