WRONG SHOES
Artenlus Ward once remarked, "There is one
thing to be said in favor of tight shoes --- they
make a man forget all his other troubles."
It isn't always the "size" of a shoe that causes a
misfit. It's the make of the shoe, the material, the shape
of it. Your feet are " travelling companions" that carry
you everywhere you want to go. They are valuable ser-
vants and expect to be treated well.
Easy, glove -fitting shoes are the greatest comfort
your feet can have. These are the only kind of shoes
we sell. No matter what kind of foot you have, we'll
fit it. Crushed feet are neither useful nor ornamental,
but they Attu painful. We are not Shoe sellers, only—
we are feet fitters as well.
Remember, we sew free all all rips in
Shoes bought of us.
New Stock of Trunks and Valises to hand.

Labor Day Celebration
IN WINGHAM.
Success crowned the efforts of
Wingham firemen in their celebration
of Labor Day, on Monday last. They
had spared neither effort nor expense,
and as morning dawned, there was
some anxiety as to the weather. The
forenoon, however, was fine, though a
few showers in the afternoon marred
the otherwise successful day.
At ten o'clock, the Calithumpian
procession appeared, headed by the
Citizens' Band, and caused considera-
ble amusement. The prize -winners
were : lst—D. Lougheed ; 2nd -11. A.
Dinsley ; 3rd—Ken. Patterson ; 4th—
Alex. Coutts ; best clown—Fred Scott.
The Trades' procession followed ;
Currie & Davidson (well drillers) had
a comical outfit and won first prize ;
J. Bugg & Son had an excellent repre-
sentation of their business and cap-
tured 2nd prize ; the Singer Sewing
Machine Co. followed and got 3rd
prize ; the fourth prize fell to the
moving advertisement of R. H. Crow-
der Co. A. R. Smith was either a
standing, riding'or walking advt. all
day for the brand of clothing he sells.
Then followed the Baseball match
between Teeswater and Blyth ; it was
a close game and the victory went to
Teeswater ; score 11-10.
After dinner, the park was the ren-
dezvous for the gathering. The foot
and other races were the first on the
program, and the prizes were as fol-
lows :--
Boys under 10 -1st, Dudley Holmes ;
2nd, Cameron Guest.
Boys under 15 -1st, Harold Smith ;
2nd, Chas. Webb.
Girls under 10, foot race--lst, Bella _
Eadie ; 2nd, Allie Simmons.
Girls ander 15 --1st, Ruby Jones ;
2nd, Emily Mann.
Old roan's race --1st, Eli Elliott; 2nd
Jno. Sillick.
Boot race -1st, Arnott Brock ; 2nd,
Win. Elliott.
Catching the monkey—ll. Dore,
Pig r<ce-1st, J, Mitchell; 2nd, D.
Waubisse.
King's PIate—lst, A. Bedie ; 2nd, J.
Williams.
The Lacrosse match, Wingham vs.
Kincardine, was the next attraction.
The game started at a rapid gait, too
swift by far for the lakeside team, and
in a very few minutes, four goals
stood to the credit of Wingham,
while Kincardine score remained at
the zero point to the end, for the
scorn at the elose of the game stood
4-0 in favor of Wingham. There was
considerable rough play and it, must
have been an off day for Kit1eardine
players. We have read in sacred his-
tory of an army whose soldiers turned
and fought each other. It would re-
mind spectators of this, to see the
Kincardine boys cracking ane another
with their lacrosse sticks, apparently
having mistaken friend for foe, while
'Wingham boys rained shots on the
goal.
More prizes were then awarded as
follows :' -
Oldest man—Wm. J'aiekson, Morris,
aged 01.
Oldest woninn-»Mrs, (Jolliet former]
ly of Bluevale, aged 84.
Earliest settler—Chas. Maguire, a
resident of Morris since 1850.
Baby show -1st, Mrs. Thos. Dick -
son's ; 2nd, Mrs. Thos. Henderson's.
Each baby received a gold -lined mug.
The best twins were Edna and Elsie,
daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Jas. Cooper
of town ; each received one dollar.
The ticket that won the silver watch
given by W. G. Patterson, was No.
1139 and was held by Thomas Scott,
Teeswater.
The Tug of War for $25, created
considerable interest. A team from
the adjacent townships pulled against
a team from Wingham. The town
team were the heaviest men, but the
sturdy yeomen planted their feet with
determination and won, in a very
short time.
The flag drill by Miss Houghton's
class was an interesting event of the
afternoon. Piper McDonald and his
daughter Mabel, performed their parts
excellently, both afternoon and even-
ing.
In the evening, the park was again
the centre of attraction. Miss Hough-
ton's class of girls gave the scarf drill
in good style. The Indians present
gave an exhibition of the War Dance.
The Indian Chief then sang "We are
freemen"; this was followed by a cho-
rus in the Indian language—"Jesus
lover of my soul."
Herb. Dore won the prize in the pie -
eating contest and received a bottle of
castor oil as a prize. Ed. McLennan
was the winner in the watermelon
contest and received the gift of a
bottle of suitable medicine.
NOTES.
Wingham Citizens' Band rendered
excellent service all day long.
A group of Indians in the proces-
sion attracted considerable notice.
The program was carried out as
nearly as possible in its entirety, and
the Firemen are pleased with the re-
sults of the day's proceedings.
The net proceeds are not yet an-
nounced. After payment of expenses,
which are heavy, the balance will go
to the credit of the Firetnen's Benefit
fund, for sick or disabled firemen.
In addition to Chief Vannorman,
the energetic Sec. -Treasurer, Geo. C.
Hanna, deserves much praise for the
faithful help he rendered in cal'xying
out the program ; others also of the
company gave assistance in various
ways.
The pay the firemen receive from
the town is by no means large, and
citizens will be pleased to see our fire-
fighters have a good-sized fund to
their credit, to help them in the hour
of need. They are ready to turn out
day or night, fine weather or storm,
=to save our property from the fire
fiend.
