commence early next spring. Mr. J.
W. Leonard, chief engineer, and A.
E. H. Grupe, A. Levy and T. S. Dar-
ling, engineers, went over the route
on Thursday. On Friday a meeting
of the provisional directors was held
at Walkerton and the charter was
transferred to the C. P. R. Co. Mr.
Leonard told the Review that there
would. be some engineering difficulty
in getting out of Teeswater but that
the rest of the road is easy. Mr. Leon-
ard bas lately been appointed to be

Worth Considering.
The Mayor of Kingsville has, been
trying a new system of laying cement
sidewalks. The municipality hadpaid
from eleven to thirteen cents per
square foot for laying the walks, but
the Mayor thought that he could get
better work done by the day, and
offered to pay the difference out of his
own pockets, if the work cost more
than eight cents a sgnare foot. The
Council agreed to the Mayor's propo-
sition, and a local 'man was engaged
to build the walk by the day. A strip
was built and when completed was so
satisfactory in appearance and price
to
the ratepayers, as well as to the
Council, that other walks will be put
down on the same basis. This sample
walk cost just six and four-fifths cents
per foot, Anil is four -inch thick and
made of first-class material. Other
towns might profit by following the
example of Kingsville.

Copied Mistakes. •
We noticed last week that our
sprigh tly co -tens., the Teeswater News,
repeated the error that a number of
our exchanges have made in reference
to the quantity of beer consumed in
Canada. All the papers that have
carelessly made the error, report that
Canadians drank last year 4,822 gal-
lons per head. They did no such
thing. We refuse to believe that Ca-
nadians are such beer -guzzlers as to
swallow nearly 5000 gallons per head
yearly, because, as some drink none
at all, the other fellows must drink
from ten to fifteen thousand gallons
each which is too ridiculous to believe.
If our exchanges that have made this
error would look at the parliamentary
reports sent out, they would see that
the correct figures are 4 gallons and
822-1000ths of a gallon, or a little over
4f gallons. While there has been an
increase in 'he quantity of beer con-
sumed, there has been a reduction in
the quantity of spirituous liquors
used.

Correct Forecasts.
Rev. Irl Hicks' weather forecasts for
last week proved correct. After 17th
inst., he predicted heavy autumnal
storms with gales of wind. This was
the weather we had from the 18th to
the 22nd. According to the same
authority, the weather about Thanks-
giving time is to be as follows The
last regular Vulcan storm period for
October extends from the 24th to the
29th, being central on the 25th, The
moon will be an active factor in the
disturbances of this period. Change
to much warmer with a decided fall of
the barometer will be noted in wes-
tern sections by the 24th and 25th.
These conditions will be quickly fol-
lowed by cloudiness, storm and pre-
cipitation. By Thursday, the 26th,
decided storms, attended by heavy
rains and autumnal lightning and
thunder, will be developed on their
eastward march across the country.
A sudden and severe change to much
colder will almost certainly rush out
of the west and north within twenty-
four hours of sundown on the 28th.
This is another crisis of peril to all
who may be exposed upon or along
our great northern lakes. Dangerous
gales and tidal waves along the Atlan-
tic and gulf coasts should be no sur-
prise to any student of our forecasts,
on or about October 28.
Interesting Address,
The following from the Dundalk
Herald has reference to Miss Carrie
Wellwood, daughter of Dir. Wm,
Wellwood, of Wingham :—"The Bps
worth League enjoyed a rare treat on
Tuesday evening when Miss Well -
wood, a deaconess in the city of Bos-
ton, spoke on the work done in that
city and elsewhere by the members of
the Order. It was a most instructive
and interesting insight to the life liv-
en by the poor of the great cities and
the great need of the ministration and
assistance was convincingly explained.
Miss Wellwood is a fluent talker and
the League is greatly indebted to her
for the most interesting address."
Changes Contemplated.
The Ontario Cabinet has been hard
at work and a number of important
matters are now absorbing the atten-
tion of the Ministers. One of these is
the change in the school law and sys-
tem, There is to be a series of
changes that will take away, it is said,
the right of the municipality to in-
augurate what system it desires, or
say what subjects are to be taught
within its confines. There is to be a
unification of the public school curri-
culum and A total elimination of fads.
A. consultative council is to be called
within the next few days whielt is to
embrace all the best and most experi-
enced teaching ability of the province,
and a new curriculum will be evolved
as a result of the deliberations of this
body. It is understood that at the
next session of the Legislature a bill
will be introduced legalizing the
changes, The question of the cost of
school books is another matter of seri-
ous import, and an effort will be made
to devise some plan for cheaper books

ST, PAUL'S NEW RECTOR. AN UP.TO-DATE SHOW.
The Advance expected to have given
its readers the following in last week's
issue, but as we were anxious to se-
cure a, cut from one of the latest
photographs of the new Rector, and
also get the most reliable information
as to his standing and attainments,
we preferred to wait, until these"were
available.
Rev. Temple Stannage Boyle, M. A., B. D.
The new Rector of St. Paul's Chtuch
was born in St. Catharines, , Ontario ,
and was educated in the Collegiate
Institute there. He entered Trinity
University, Toronto, in 1894, with
quadruple scholarships, and after pur-
suing a double honor course, graduat-
ed B. A., University Prizeman, and

Post -graduate Prizeman of 1902.
. Mr. Boyle was ordained Deacon by
Archbishop Bond. in June:, 1900, and
priested in December of that year, by
the sante prelate. After an incum-
bency of North Clarendon for one
year, he was appointed senior assis-
tant at Christ Church Cathedral, Mon-
treal, at Easter, 1001. He will be re-
membered there as having a large
share in healing the division in the
congregation four years ago. He is
an enthusiastic Brotherhood man and
Sunday School worker. For four
years he has been Secretary of the
Montreal Diocesan Sunday School As-
sociation. As a preacher and parish
worker, the congregation of St. Paul's
will soon have an opportunity to
judge, as he will (D. V.) begin his
duties in Wingham, Sunday, Novem-

On Thursday evening of last week,
the annual meeting of the Wingham
Branch Bible Society was held in the
Baptist church. The Secretary's and
Treasurer's report for 1904 were very
satisfactory and were adopted as read.
The officers were all re-elected :—Jno.
Kerr, President; Robert Curry, Esq.,
Vice -Pres.; A. E. Lloyd, Sec.; Rev. N.
S. Burwttsh, Treas.; Directors—Mes-
ses. D. M. Gordon, W. Grierson, Wm.

Mooney and Jno. McNiven. Rev. D.
Perri° and Rev. Dr. Gundy delivered
very interesting and instructive ad-
dresses, the former drawing attention
to the need of a more reverent and
systematic study of the Bible and also
pointing out that unfair comparisons
were sometimes made between the
Christian religion and other religions.
The Latter speaker made reference
particularly to the good work accom-
plished by the British and Foreign
Bible Society, also drawing attention
to the fact that the missionary was
indispensable to the Bible Society, in
that he first mastered the language
and then assisted in the work of trams-
lating, revising and distributing the
Scriptures, and yet how helpless was
the missionary without the Bible So-
ciety to furnish him with his weapon,
the Bible. The choir of the Baptist
Church furnished a splendid program
of music. Altogether, the nteetittg
was a success, although the attend-
ance was not large, owing to the un-
favorable weather.

services were held, appropriate to the
Nelson centennial. The great central
service, however, was held in St.
et, v

where the body of the immortal Nel-
son reposes.
A Handsome Present.
Rev. Father Laurendeau of Wing -
ham and St. Augustine parishes, and
the Rev. Father Hanlon, formerly of
Wingham parish, were tiro of fifty-
eight priests of the diocese who met
in London recently and presented
Bishop McEvoy with a purse contain-
ing the handsome sum of $2,000 in
gold. His lordship left on Wednes-

New Church Dedicated.
With solemn service and imposing
ritual the new Roldan Catholic church
at Kingsbridge was dedicated and

October 15th, in the }presence of a
large gathering. The dedicatory ser-
mon was pteacltecl by Father O'Neil
of Bothwell, at native of the parish.
The sacred edifice will cost in the
neighborhood of $25,000, lett such is
the liberality of the people, who con-
sist of one Ilpudred and ten families,
that there is a comparatively small in-
cumbrance which will be wiped off in
a few short years. The Bishop ad-
ministered the rites of confirmation to
about fifty children, each of whom
took the pledge to abstain from in-
toxicating ligan until twenty-one
years of age. Itis lordship spoke to
