The Advance extends the hand of fraternal greeting to Mr. Hunter. The retiring editor, Mr. Gadd, attributes his lack of sue - cess to his refusal to do "dirty work" for members of the Liberal party.

Weather prognosticators. say that we are now on the fourth year of wet and enol summers. The period, they say started in 1002, and will last for seven years. it will be a case of cresendo and diminuendo, that is to say, get worse until the centre is reached, and then will gradually taper off until 1900 is reached. According to that theory this will he the cooles and wettest summer for four years. Then things will gradually improve until normal Canadian weather is again reached in 1910. Publish The Results. The Toronto Telegram voices the opinion of many, when it says - There ought to bo no repetition of the mysterious nonsense that Last year temporarily concealed the results of the entrance examinations to the Toronto High schools. These results were not published as usual in 1004 for fear the different schools might be judged by the number of candidates passed from each school, It is better to subject the schools to false and misleading comparisons than to con- ceal the examination results from the parents, friends and the hundreds of children who are writing on their entrance. Publish tate results this year and leave the schools to take care of themselves amid, the ensuing comparisons. Dominion Day Notes. i -anniversary Tho th uty eighth of Confederation is past, and the Do- minion of Canada has entered on its thirty-ninth year.... The weather was threatening, yet a huge number of our citizens spent the day out of town. ..Many went to Teestvater to the Homecomers' celebration ; a few went to Wroxeter, and others to St. Augus- tine picnic Wingham merchants observed the day by closing their places of business.... Wingbann's ex- cellent Band were engaged at Tees - water and delighted the citizens with their musicIt was a great day for Wingham athletic teams. Listowel and Wingbam played lacrosse at Wroxeter, and our boys won by a score of 0-3. At Teeswater our junior Baseball team defeated their opponents by a score of 54. In the same village, Wingham Football team played with Mildmay and defeated them ; score, 2-0. Three victories in one day, Piper McDonald of Wingham regaled the Teeswater people with music from the bagpipes Teeswater prepared an elaborate program for the Home - corners of the village and Culross. Besides the sports and the parade on Saturday, there was a union religious service in the park on Sunday after- noon, and on Monday a reunion of visitors and their friends at picnic. The decorations of the village were very creditable indeed to the enter- prise of the inhabitants. St. Augustine Picnic. The picnic on Saturday last under the auspices of Se, Augustine Church was successful, notwithstanding the threatening weather and the after- noon rain. Large numbers of people took advantage of the holiday to en- joy themselves, and the towns and villages were well represented. Elsner Moore supplied the delicacies and Percy Hill the refreshing drinks. In the ticket selling contest, the first prize, a gold watch, was won by Miss Rose McGuire ; second prize, a gold ring, by Miss Kate Donovan. In the drawings, the gold watch was drawn by John O'MaIIy of Teeswater ; the second, afountain pen went to Mrs. B. McGuire of St. Augustine, and the 3rd (Rev. Father Menamir. s portrait) was won by Miss Kearney. S. Coop- er, contractor for Wingham postof- fiee, won the Smoking set, which made Sant senile his very best. One booth was in charge of Mr. and Mrs. P. Kearney and Thos. Leddy, and the other was managed by Mr. and Mrs. J. Flynn and Mrs. E. McGuire, and both were well patronized. A new departure was the J londyke and fish pond; this was in charge of Misses Troy, Brophy and Furlong. John Walsh looked after the shooting gal- lery. All the visitors appeared to en- joy the day ; the proceeds were about $•t i0. the. Father Hanlon was con- stantly on the wove, and to his tact and the co-operation of his people, the financial success of the day may be attributed. THE BYLAWS CARRIED. For Extension of Waterworks.

The lacrosse match played on Wed- nesday of last week between the above teams, was one of the finest exhibi- tions of Canada's national game that has ever been witnessed on the park here. The teams were evenly matched and during the entire game kept up the enthusiasm of the crowd by splen- did combination work. During the first quarter honors were even, each team scoring once. At the close of the second quarter matters looked anything but bright for the local teatn, when the score stood 4 to 1 in favor of the visitors. The playing of both teams .vas fart and the combina- tion excellent, but the local defence allowed themselves to be drawn too far away from the goal, and as as re- sult the round closed with the visitors three in the lead. The third (natter proved a disastrous one for Kincar- dine, when at its close the score stood 5-4 against them; this quarter proved beyond a doubt that '4Viugluuu boys can play lacrosse, for the pace they set was certainly torp fast foe the lake- side lads, Who were fairly beteikiered at the lightning combination. Shot' after shot was made on the Mem- cline goal clueing the third quarter and the wonder is that only four found the net, The last quarter of the game was as continuation of the preceding one, and not until the locals had in- creased then• lead by tWo more goads did they slacken their pace, This quarter witnessed the Oily disagree- able feattu'e of the game, which up to that time had been perfectly rime and gentlemanly. The game closed with a encore of 7-1 in favor of the house team. Referee Ellis of Mount Forest kept the players well in hand. Council met July 3rd ; members present -Mayor Bell, Councillors D. Bell, Bennett, Greer, Stewart and VanStone. Minutes of last meeting read and approved.

The Clerk was in- structed to reply, stating that no charge wou'•1 be made for any assis- tance tendered. A petition was presented by Alex. Campbell and fifteen others, asking for the abatement of nuisance cause by a piggery at the east end of the town. Goan. VanStone explained that the cause of complaint had been removed.
