THE KINLOSS RURAL SCHOOL FAIR We would like to say just a word of appreciation of our teacher at S.S. No. 9, who so tirelessly showed such interest and helped her pupils to make the splendid showing they did at the Rural School Fair held at Holyrood last week. We wouldn’t be unmindful of the pupils either, some of whom, we believe, almost made a record in prize-winning. The Shield, which is the coveted prize of all the schools, is held at present by No. 9, and we hope and believe that it will be retained for another year. We might just mention that out of a possible 54 first prizes, 15 were won by our school, and 20 seconds were also won out of a possible 54. James McIntosh. PREMIER DRURY AT WINGHAM There was a big crowd at Wingham Fall Fair on Tuesday, many being at­ tracted, no doubt, by the fact that Premier Drury, of Ontario, was to be there and give an address at the opening Tuesday afternoon. Mr. Drury arrived by the train from London and left again in the afternoon, so that his stay at the Fair grounds was short. He spoke in the park for only 15 minutes, and then hurried awa£ bo see the cattle, sheep and horses. Mr. Drury’s presence at the Fair was secured -by the efforts of Mr. John Joynt, M.P.P. for North Huron, who had the honor of introducing the premier. This Mr. Joynt did in a very short address, which was appropriate and to the point. Mr. Joynt, though a Conservative by party affiliation, is a great admirer of the farmer premier, and took occasion to tell the people at Wingham that he regarded Mr. Drury as the biggest man in Ontario politics, and one of the really big men of the country. The premier did not deal with pol­ itical matters, confining himself to topics of a general nature. In his short address, he showed himself to be a man of high ideals, and a real worker for the welfare of the pro­ vince and the country. Mr J. W. King, M.P. for North Huron, also spoke briefly. EIGHTH CON., KINLOSS I CHURCH NEWS The League.—An interesting pro­ gram Was given Monday night in League. The President took the chair, and Flora Andrew read the Scripture lesson.

A rare treat is in store for all who hear her. Presbyterian Guild.—The Mission­ ary Committee had charge of the pro­ gram at the Guild meeting Monday evening and two Missionary dialogues were given by young folk; Ena and Allan Phillips and Evelyn Nixon giv­ ing the first, and Fra.nces Thompson and Dorothy Nixon the second. The evening’s topic was taken by/ Mrs. MacCallum and Miss Margaret Mac- Callum read the Scripture lesson. A number of appropriate selections on the victrola added to the entertain­ ment, and there was a duet by Miss Mary and Mr Horace Aitchison, and a reading by Winnifred Douglas.

Anniversary Services are being held in Holyrood on Sanday. The day being fine, a good crowd is expected. f We were very sorry to hear of the death of the infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jackson. The little tot had never been very strong, and was the only child,and about six weeks old. The sympathy of the neighborhood is extended to the sorrowing parents. Mr. and Mrs. John, and Mr. and Mrs. Earl Culbert, and Mrs. James Ross motored to the County Town one day last week. The town is very badly torn up these days owing to a great deal of paving being done. No doubt 'it will be a greatly improv­ ed spot 'in a short time. The School Fair last week at Holy­ rood was well represented by our burg. The day though threatening rain, turned out to be an ideal day for sports etc,, and the exhibits in­ doors and out were quite up to the mark, Many remarked that it really surpassed last year’s Fair. Well done teachers and iyy > William Cox, of the 10th. Con., Kinloss, struck something of a bon­ anza last week when he pulled down an unused chimney of his house. He knew that for the past two years a colony of bees had been in possession of the chimney, and the family had left them undisturbed. Knowing that this was a great season for honey, Mr. Cox thought it would be a good time to ascertain what his busy little neighbors had been doing. After treating them to a “smoke”, he pro­ ceeded to pull down the chimney. Quite a long section had been filled with comb and filled with honey. Altogether there was over 200 pounds, and all was removed without damage. It was interesting to note how the little workers had adapted the con­ struction of their nest to the new’ surroundings. In no place was the comb allowed to come in direct con­ tact with the bricks, but at frequent intervals braces of the comb material were put in so that the whole mass was held in position and kept per­ fectly clean. As the brick and mortar were removed the comb was easily taken out in sections. VICTIM OF MYSTERY EXPLOSION Dr. M. H. Gillies, of Teeswater, recently recieved word from Vancou­ ver, B. C_, that his brother, Dr. Ernest Gillies,, had been the victim of a somewhat mysterious explosion which inflicted severe injuries to his head and face. The sight of one eye is thought to have been destroyed and the other is so- injured that its preservation was at the time of the report doubtful. The doctor had gone with a hunt­ ing party into the mountains. The party came to a deserted cabin which contained a stove. A fire was made in the stove and Dr. Gillies was either warming his hands or working over the stove when a terrific ex­ plosion occurred, pieces of the stove flying in all directions and striking the doctor in the chest and face. Evidently a quantity of dynamite or other explosive had been placed in the stove or concealed in the fuel. As the inside of a stove is a strange place to store explosives for safe keeping, it looks as though some miscirant had prepared a trap for someone whom he expected to visit the cabin. But how the explosive came to be in the stove must remain mat­ ter of speculation. Dr. Ernest Gillies is the youngest -of three sons, of the late Dr. John Gillies, who for many years carried on a successful practice at Teeswater. On gaduating from Toronto Medical College he went to Vancouver and in association with his brother Dr. Digby Gillies, was very successful in the practice of his profession. On the outbreak of the war in 1914 he went overseas with the Seaforth. Highlanders, a Vancouver regiment of which he had been a memberf He saw much hard service in Belgium and Gallipoli. At the end of the war he resumed his practice in Vancouver and was married about two years (Intended for last week) Silo-filling is the order of the day. Mr. and Mrs. H.

THIS DEALS WITH YOUR EYE­ SIGHT What is more important than your eyesight? Have your school children’s eyes properly fitted with glasses for this term’s work. Eye strain causes lack of memory and thus causes a child to appearrkril and stupid in school, whereas if the eyestrain is removed by properly fit­ ted Lenses, that same child will be bright and intelligent, thus saving both ch 'dren and parents worry. Eyestrain also causes a great strain on the nervous system, affecting the nerves, causing children to be peevish and irritable. Keen vision is no indication that eyes are normal, in fact statistics have shown that 85 per cent, of all eyes have hypernormal vision—that is vision keener than normal, thus caus­ ing strain on eyes, also a great strain on nervous system. Eyestrain also causes headaches, dry, itchy eyes, styes, tumors on eye­ lids, granulated eyelids, inflamed eyes and watery eyes. Short Consultation Free. Satisfac­ tion assured. Dr. Maude C.
