We pride ourselves on the fact that we live in the days of rapid transit, but an occurrence this week demon- strates that we have still a few Rip Van Winkles left. A postcard ad- dressed to a citizen of town from Orangeville, Ont., a:.d bearing tbe date March 29, 1911, has this; week reached Its destination. It has taken lust six years to conte • very short distance. The Royal Postal Air Ser- vice cannot come too anon. Sentence Suspended. J. McGuire, W. Thompson and Sid- ney Saunders, tbe three men charged with being present in a common gain- ing house, which charge was preferred against them after John Bedford had been found guilty of keeping a gambl- ing house, pleaded guilty to the charge on Monday and were allowed to go on suspended sentence by Magistrate Kelly. His Worship remarked that be thought the offence would not he re- peated and that what had been done to stop the practice would be sufficient. Subject for Court -Martial. George Letson, an absentee from No. 1 Special Service Company since 1 February last, was arrested in Gude- , rich on Monday evening and was held ' on • charge of being drunk and dis- otderly. He appeared before Magis- trate Kelly on Tuesday morning and was remanded for • week. The mili- tary authorities at London were ad- vised of Lesson's arrest and an officer arrived on Tuesday evening to take him to the Forest Cit y. where he will be dealt with by court-martial. No July 12th Celebration. .y Owing to the refusal of tbe railways to give a special train service for the Twelfth of July, the celebration pro- posed to be held in Uodeneh this year has been cancelled. The local Orange- men will go to Stratford, where tbey can spend the wbole day and use only the regular trains. The understand- ing is that next year's celebration is to be held in Gudericb, and that. Strat- ford and other Perth county lodges will join in It. General Brough Chapter. The secretary of the General Brough Chapter, I. O. D. K. reports that the proceeds of the pstriotie tam ala . Sat. urday last amounted W 1118.50.

At the regular monthly meeting of the Collegiate Institute trustee board, held on Thursday last, a motion was passed instructing that, in case of a pupil asking for a refund of fey. the refund ,if any) should be taken from the fee for future attendance, the same to he wholly at the option of the principal. It was decided that the town be asked to levy 86,000 for In- stitute purposes for 1917. The report of the Prjvincirl inspector of high schools was received. it reported favor- ahly upon the teaching staff, but owned severe strictures upon the building and the accommodations in various respects. Did It Carry a Message 'i while Mr. Dan Graham was about twenty miles out in Lek. Huron on Monday in his fishing tug, the Flor- ence Graham, a carrier -pigeon flew into the wheelhouse of the boat. It was very much exhausted and was so hungry tbat it devoured the food that was offered it in s way that indicated that it had not had anything to eat for some tune. On the pigeon's right leg was a silver ring with "W. H. 194- 1918" engraved oo it.. On the left leg was a plain gold ring. Both rings were quite hose, which fact might indicate that they were used to attach mes- sages to the hind to he carried to it. destination. Mr. Graham now has the pigeon at hi. home on E`tlex street. Where the hard name from can only be conjectured. Some give credence to the suggestion that some enemy sympathizers were using It as a means of communication between distant points. Women's Institute District Meeting.

The annual Oreybound excur.ion from Detroit so Goderich this week proved to be as popular as in any re- oent year. On the trip to Ooderich on Monday 240 paesenges were aboard and on the return trip to Detroit on Tuesday morning upwards of 80) people from town and vicinity took advantage of the ideal weather con- ditions to enjoy the trip downs.tb lake to United Meuse' "Fourth City." The moonlight excursion on Winder evening was well patronized, 720 tick- ets being sold for the trip. Os Saturday word was received from Ottawa that the regulations re- garding the securing of passports to all men of military age who wished to leave Canada on the steamer Orey- hound would be modified for the oc- casion. s.casion. The regulation requiring a photograph in duplicate was rescinded and the new order was to the effect that an identification card signed by an huaalgration officer would be satis- factory. As this announcement did not reach Ooderich until Saturday there wee practically no opportunity to inform the people in the surround- ing country. Undoubtedly, if the change in the regulations had been announced earlier there would have been a much larger patronage of the trip to Detroit this week. The Greyhound on this trip is in command of Captain W. G. Aden's. This was Capt. Adams' time visit to Ooderich, and be expressed himself to The Signal as aurprised and deligbted at the appe.mance of the town. The harbor accommodations, too, were much beyond his expectation. The Cap- tain is an Orangeville "old boy"—but not a very old one yet. Oapt. Thea. Meiklethem, whom Ooderich people had been accustomed to see in charge of the Greyhound, is detained in De- troit by the demands of him coal busi- ness, which in other years he had been able to leave in other hands daring the navigation season.
