The new saw -mill of the Roes Tay- lor Oo. was put in operation for the first time on Thursday last. This com- pany now bas the complete equip - went for turning saw -logs into the finished wauutactured article. By a misunderstanding we were made to say last week that the works had been closed dawn since the New Year. Such was not the case, however. as the plan- ing mill department has beencontinu- ously in operation. The sun's rays are daily becoming less slant at noontide and now casting considerable heat at that portion of another earth known as Western On- tario. Thursday last was a beautiful spring day. A southwest breeze wan- dered lazily around, the sun was warm and that peculiar, undefinable spring atmosphere was felt. Inches were taken off the depth of the snow and little rivulets ran here and there over the ice and snow. While the days in the sunshine are warm and pleasant, the nights are clear and frosty. Mr. Fred Haggish, of Stephen, left on Monday with a carload of settlers effects for Edmonton, Alta., where he will in future make his home. Fred took up land in the neighborhood of Edmonton some time ago and it is bis intentions on arriving there to work the property. Fred is a young man of good qualities and being possessed of a liberal amount of that push and energy that well fits a man for that Western country, he doubtless will snake a mark for himself. His many friends here will wish him every euc- cess. Mr. H. Parsons, who has been residing in Iowa, U.S., accompanied hint. The interest in the evangelistic meet- ings in James St. Methodist Church is steadily increasing. Several persons have already corse forward to give themselves to Christ, The Sabbath Services were of special interest.

Mrs. McNair will hold as meeting of the same character next Tuesday at 3 p. m. There will be a general meeting Thursday at 3 p. nr., conducted by Mr. and Mrs. McNair. Subject "The Higher Life." Next sabbath, Mr. McNair will address a meeting for MEN ONLY et four o'clock p. In. A subject of special interest to men will be considered. There will be a half hour Evangelistic service by the Evangelists in connection with the Sabbath School beginning about 3:15. All are cordially invited to all these services. Meetings under the auspices of the Farmer's Association of South Huron, took place in Exeter, Crediton and Dashwood this week. The officers of the Association were disappointed be- cause of the absence of Mr. W. L Smith, of Toronto, who was announ- ced to speak, hut who was unable to he present. Mr. R. H. McLean address- ed the Exeter meeting on Tuesday af- ternoon, and explained the objects and workings of the Association, while the other meetings were address- ed by Mr. McLean and other members of the local aseociation, Messrs. IL McMotdie, W. D. Sanders, and B. S. Phillips. The Exeter meeting was very poorly attended, owing, possibly, to the meeting being in the afternoon and the fartnere being busily engaged preparing for spring. It is to be very much regretted that the farmers do not take is greater interest in this as- sociation because it has done and will still do great good W the agricultural communities :n Canada.

This storm period is from the 19th to the 24th being at its center on the 21st the central day of Earth's vernal equinoctial period, with the Moon at the fun, on the celestial equator and in perigee. This is a storm period that every student reasonably familiar with our forecaste will watch with much interest. The indications are that tropical storms and hurricanes will reach the extreme parts of our south country about the 19th to 22nd, notably un and touching the 21st, and that rain and high winds, turning to snow and very cold for the season, will meet the tropical, equatorial storms from the northwest. A severe March blizzard over touch of the country northward, is sinning the pro- babilities at this period. Exposed regions along the south and gulf coast will do wisely to watch barometric and other storm indications at this time. Volcanic and seisinic disturban- ces will reach a maximum state of exitation over the globe generally within sixty hours of six p. In. on the 20th. 'Watch for such reports in the world's telegraphic news covering this Period' P resbytery of Huron. This Presbytery met in Clinton on the 7th of March. Repotte on church life and work, Sabbath Schools and Christian Endeavor were submitted by Messrs. Larkin. Davidson and Cars- well respectively, and action taken on them. It was agreed to hold a confer- ence on said subjects in May next. It was agreed to ask the Assembly's Committee on Augmentation of Sti- pends to continue for the coming year the grants now given to our augment- ed chargees. Dr. McLean was appoint- ed convener of the home mission com- mittee. Mr. Martin was appointed a member of the Assembly's committee of bills and overtures, and Mr. Larkin a member of the Synod's committee. The Presbytery resolved to submit the following names for the vacant chair of Greek literature and Ex esis and for the principalship of Wnux College, each of whom it unanimously recorurnendslfor the positions mention- ed, viz.: Dr. Denney, of Glasgow, Scotland; 1)r. Falconer, principal of Halifax Presbyterian College, and Dr. Kilpatrick, of Winnipeg. The follow- ing were elected commissioners to the General Assembly to meet in Kingston in June next, Messrs. Corriere, May - tin and Small, Ministers, and M. Y. Mclean, Henry Strang and Wm. Car- nie, elders. The next ordinary meet- ing will be held in Hrucefield on the 211d Tuesday in May at 10:30 a. tn. Successful Organ Recital. More than a little credit is due the Epworth League of the Main Street Methodist Church for giving the people of this community a chance to hear a musical trent on Monday evening last. The committee had secured the very best of talent for such an entertain- ment, Mr. W. 11. Hewlett, Organist of Hamilton, and Mr. Arthur Garth- waite, Bass Soloist of London, two of Ontario's most popular entertainers. They advertised the concert well, and hustled the sale of tickets, with the result that in the matter of attendance there was nothing to be desired, the church being comfortably tilled by a very appreciative audience. Not truly in attendance was the concert a suc- cess. All present seemed thoroughly pleased with the several numbers, and showed their pleasure by hearty ap- plause after each selection. Mr. W. H. Hewlett i8 a master of the pipe organ. Hie interpretation of the dif- ferent numbers was good. Perhaps the most enjoyable was the "Scene Pastorale” which presents to the hear- ers the various phases of pastoral scenery, the singing of birds, the rumbling of thunder, the song of the shepherd, etc. To the person with an understanding of music, one who would grasp the full meaning of the various parts, the effect must have been very pleasing; even to the person musically uneducated the general ef- fect was ,ouch enjoyed. Mr. (lMrth- waite's solos were excellent. He is possessed of a very deep and full bass voice arid has it well under command. "The Lord is My Light", "Heroes and Gentlemen,' and "King David's La- ment" were particularly pleasingly rendered, and brought forth full measures of applause. Mr. Garth- waite is one of the best bass singers we have heard here for several years. Mies Mildred Godwin gave a reading in her usual pleasing manner. Footslogs Is New York. Fashion is certainly exploiting the popular shirtwaist suit in every possi- ble direction. Its simple and graceful lines are not only the correct thing for morning wear, but, with appropriate modifications, they form the basis of afternoon gowns also. Several of the new shirt -waist suite are cut on Bailor lines. The most prominent factor in the advancing styles is the deeiied difference shown in the treatment of morning and of afternoon gowns, de- spite the fact that both kinds are built upon shirt -waist lines. The morning gowns are of serge, linen, light -weight tweed, cotton or the new pongee. Softer goods are used for the afternoon gowns. Voile, taffeta silk, enlienne, handkerchief linen, and all sheer me- terials are correct. The skirts of morning gowns extend to the instep: those for afternoon and carriage wear are mond, resting two inches upon the floor, and show a rippling fulness about the feet. The plaited skirt is very appropriate for walking. Linens, plain enthroideretf, and inset with eavy lace, appear to cover every less• sihle want. 1 sed alike for automobile wraps and for gowns for morning and afternoon wear, the wardrobe that has no linen garment this year will be hopelessly nut of date. Lingerie frocks are always appropriate for little girls. and this year they are extreme!) smart in every detail. Their other gowns also, like those shove described for their elders, show touches of lin gerie, notably in the eyelet and swiss embroidery than launders so easily. ('oats for cool days are important features in a little girl's wardrobe. The always stylish reefer is well-nigh indispensable. -- Front TIin i)1iLJNKA• Ton for April. Plump.
