EAST WAWANOSH.
Intended for last week
All is quite. Sleighing is good. Wind,
snow and rain follow each other in rapid
succession.
Farmers are busy getting out wood,
logs, etc., also attending to their live
stock, which, by the way, must be boom-
ing just now as there were no less than
five of yonr Wingham buyers round our
corner one day last week. "Where the
carcase is there will the eagles be gather-
ed together."
Our rural population must be degener-
ating to an alarming degree. According
to the estimate of the Ontario Govern-
ment, there is not brains enough in the
country to hire a school teacher. Pre-
mier Whitney and his advisers ought to
be in Russia. No doubt they could or-
ganizea despotic Government of the most
tyrannical order. Never mind, when
next election comes we will make some
of those M. P, P's. sorry for what they
have done.
Last Sabbath being the anniversary of
he Young People's Society of Christian
Endeavor, a very Interesting and in.
strnotive discourse was delivered byRev.
J.J. Hastie, on the early history of the
Presbyterian church. Tho Rev. gentle-
man took his hearers back some three hun
dred years and told of such men as,gnox�
Cameron, Melville and Penick; and
also of their co-workers on the continent,
in the persons of Calvin and his devoted,
followers; and of their struggles to free'
themselves from the bonds of the church
of Rome, Such an address as this, re-
freshes the memories of those who have
read the tales of the Covenanters, the
Ifuegnenots, and the Waldenses, and
should make us thankful that we live in
an age when such persecutions for the
Sake of truth need not be endured,

ing for you -enough said, we'll look for you in.

able prices.
