Have you a good job? Don't forget
that a lot of others are standing around
waiting more or less patiently to drop
into it whenever you get a better one
or when you get "fired." The way to
keep a good job is to be as good as the
job ; the way to get a better job is to
be better than the present job •, the
way to get on the toboggan is to get
it into your head that yon are in-
dispensable to the concern and to be-
gin acting independent and "bossy."

Recently, a train running north of
Palmerston was stopped between two
stations by a passenger pulling the
bell -rope in one of the cars. The train
hands and a large number of passen-
gers got off to see what was the mat-
ter, and when they found nothing was.
wrong they hoarded the train again
and proceeded on the journey. Just
as the train started again, a farmer
with a large valise jumped off, and
after waving his hand he crossed the
fields to his hone. And the passen-
gers lar;ghed,

er, On Sunday afternoon, the cere-

Interesting Lecture.

ject of Rev. Dr. Cleaver's lectuf•e on
Tuesday evening in the Methodist
Clht reh. Dr. Cleaver is an able speak-
er and gives the interesting story de-
picted. by Victor Ilugo, in a manner
Ibat deeply interests his audience,
even though they may have read the
story, There was a large and in-
terested audience.

Unexpected cted Holidays.
Ys
. Last week, a son of Mr, Arch. Pat-
terson took ill and the trouble de-
veloped into a• case of diphtheria. .As
he had been attending school, the
Trustees took prompt action ; on
Thursday school was dismissed for the
rest of the week, and the rooms thor-
oughly disinfected. Too wnuh care
cannot be taken, and it is hoped that
the prompt action taken by the Trus-
tees may prevent the spread of the
disease. On Monday something went
wrong with the heating apparatus of
the school ; it seems that the fastening
of the blow -off pipe gave way, and the
boiler was soon emptied of water and
steam. A.s the rooms were thus left
without heat, both High and Public
School pupils had another holiday.
Later—Vire case of diphtheria proved
to be a mild one, and the boy recover-
ed in a few days; no danger is feared
of the spread of the disease, and
school resumed on Tuesday,
The Maple Leaf.
Considerable donbt exists as to
when the Maple Leaf was first select-
ed as the national emblem of Canada.
The tree was held in high esteetn by
the earliest settlers, and it is more
than likely that the maple leaf was
popularly accepted as an appropriate
emblem long before we have any re-
cord of it. In 1800 an article appeared
in Le Canaclien, from which it would
appear that Canadians bad then cho-
son the maple. At the first meeting
of the St. Dear} Baptiste Society in
Montreal, in 1.83.1, the decorations
were arranged with maple leaves. In
186 it was pyoposed to adopt the
maple leaf as an emblem. in 1860, an
the occasion of the visit of the prince
Wales, of �� ales, the emblem was formally
adapted. In 1807, at Confederation,
the maple leaf was retained.
Enjoyable "At Home."
A most enjoyable social gathering
Was held in St, • Paul's church school-
room on Monday evening, ander the
auspices of the Anglican Young Peo-
ple's Association. Its object was to
extend a welcomeato the High School
pupils, and the gathering was a suc-
cess. Rev. T. S. Boyle presided, and
in a pleasant manner extended a eor-
dial welcome to the teachers and pus
pils of Wingham high School. Then
followed an instrumental duet by
Misses Roughton and Davis, and a
vocal duet by Messrs. Chapman and
Wrigley. Mr. Taylor, Principal of the
High School, thanked the A. Y. P. A.
for the kind reception extended to the
pupils of the school, and gave nn ex-
cellent address, referring to Canada,
its resources and Outlook, Mrs. 11.
W. Tend -ye recited with her usual
good taste and style. A solo by Miss
Alice Mann, an instrumental duet by
Miss May Smith and Miss 1•+:, Gregory,
a vocal solo by Miss Mae I ttox, were
followed by art address by Mr. Work-
man, Mathetnatleal master in the Iligh
School. A solo by Mrs. Rennie, a
quartette by Mrs. Rennie, Aliso Mann,
Messrs. Chapman and Wrigley, were
pleasing additions to the programme,
Refreshments were then served and
enjoyed, mingled with social inter-
course, and thus the evening pleasant-
ly d. The kindness of the )sante l A, iG ,

Cement Work,
The great inventor, Edison, suggests
that a set of motel molds, designed iu
the form of model six -roomed cottages
be made, and that into these molds
the mixed cement for building the
cottage walls shall be poured. Such a
house, in Edison's opinion, so far as
the outer walls are concerned, could
be poured in three hours, be dry
enough for occupancy in ten days,
and the shell should not cost over
$300. The plan seems workable, and,
if it can be applied to home building,
why not to s't10 construction, and any
other form of Work its which style and
size may be repeated indefinitely ?
Tho demand for cement for building
purposes is increasing; then why not
prepare for it. In this connection, as
we have not referred to it before, we
may say that Mr. W. A. I?ryfogle
built recently for the editor of this
-paper, a ceurcnt•walled kitchen that
We consider superior even to brick.
It is substantial, neat in appearance,
and the work was well done, All
who have seen it admire it.
