GORRIE.
At a very largely attended gathering
in the Methodist parsonage, the mem-
bers of the Orange Hill congregation
presented Rev. J. W. Hibbert, their
pastor, with' a well-filled purse, and an
address, expressing their very hearty
appreciation of his work. The address
was read by Mr. Reuben Harding, and
Mr. George Strong made the presenta-
tion. Following the presentation a
very pleasant social evening was spent.
The work of Rev. J. W. Hibbert and
wife is greatly appreciated on the
Gorrie circuit. While only in their
second year, the salary has been twice
increased, and a short time ago the
Gorrie Auxiliary of the Woman's Mis-
sionary Society presented Mrs. Hibbert
with a life membership certificate.

Calgary where they purpose making

derson for many years has been sold
to James Kernaghan, who moves to
Brussels next week. Mr. Henderson's
reason for selling was his appointment
as caretaker of the public schools.
Vice President Robb and Director
Dames were the delegates to the Fairs'

notice these evidences of thrift and
prosperity.
The appointment of Township Clerk
McEwen to the position of County
Auditor for this year Was a good move
as the task could hardly fall into better
hands.
Tax Collector Proctor has finished
up his roll totalling the large sum of
$27,114.28 and last Monday handed it
over to the official head at the Council.
There is no additional percentage
added after a certain date hence the
Tax Collector has no spur to put on to
gather in the coin hence the more to
his credit and of the man who com-
pletes the job.
Joseph Hogg, wife and son have
moved from Bluevale to the 3rd line.
He bought the farm
John Mason
and we wish him good luck in its man-
agement. Mr. Mason is not having
very good health we are sorry to state
but we hope he will soon be better. He
is over 80 years of age and has been a
hearty man.

Miss Lizzie hoover is making a visit e
with relatives and friends at Dungan-
non and Nile.
Mrs. James Pearson was called to
Oil Springs on account of the illness of
her sister, Mrs, Jno. Robertson.
A silo \NEI be built by L. Addy,
13th con„ next spring. It will be frame
12x24 feet. He will also put up a mod-
ern hen house as he and Mrs. Addy are
greatly interested in poultry. Last
summer Mr. Addy had a duck that lay -
ed 72 eggs and what was more remark-
able 71 ducklings were hatched from
them..
W. H. and Mrs, Salter and daughter,
of Toronto, and Mrs. Engle, of Paw
Paw, Mich., are visiting at the Rozell
home. They were anxious over the
ill health of Mrs. Rozell, mother of the
ladies mentioned. We are pleased to
say that some improvement is notice-
able in her condition although she is
still confined to bed at the home of S.
T. Plum, her brother, in Brussels.
How About It?
The new year strains against its
traces, as young colts will, when feel-
ing gay; and grave and melancholy
faces I see around me every day. At
Christmas time .- you may remember,
'twas but a little while ago, about the
last week in December—we said we'd
cut out useless woe. We'd try to make
the Christmas spirit remain with us
the whole year through; we'd can our
cares, or pretty near it, and raise a
joyous whoopysdo. We'd be so kind to
one another, and loving anthems we
would chant, and every guy we'd call a
brother, and let him come and wed our
aunt. And, though this year's ex-
tremely youthful, where are those
resolutions now? Can you stand up
serene and truthful, and say you've
kept a Christmas vow? Alas, we're
feeble, erring mortals, who seldom walk
as we aspire. And Col, Satan stands
and chortles, and heaps more brimstone
on the fire. —Walt Mason.
The Grand Trunk Pacific.
For years "The Gateway to the Cari-
boo" has been through Ashcroft, where
freight and passenger traffic has had
to be hauled by waggon and stage.
With the building of the Grand Trunk
Pacific this condition will be entirely
changed next spring when the proba-
bilities are that a steamer service will
be operated between Tete Janne Cache,
that will be the end of steel at the
time, and Fort George during the con-
struction of the line between these two
points. Ashcroft will lose its Northern
trade with startling suddenness. By
the same token Edmonton will replace
Vancouver at the same time as the
supply point for British Columbia's
Central Interior. . Freight will be car-
ried west from Edmonton by rail to the
Cache, and barged down river to Fort
George, Quesnel and Soda Creek much
more cheaply than it can be waggoned
from Ashcroft to Soda Creek, a dis-
tance of 167 long miles. It is a simple
matter of economics.
For Seed Inoculation.
The Ontario Agricultural College has
arranged this year again to send out
cultures for inoculating seed of alfalfa,
red clover, als;ke and peas. Each kind
of seed requires a different kind of
culture. The cultures are sent out in
one size packages only, each package
being sufficient for 60 lbs. of seed.
The cultures may be used on a less
amount of seed without harm. A nom-
inal charge of 25c. is made for each
package of seed.
These cultures have been sent out
ever since 1905. In the first year 246
were sent out, and last year 4,941.
One thousand three hundred and seven
reports were received and 452 reported
a beneficial result. One farmer in
Bruce county said treated clover was
100 per cent. better than that not
treated; another in Haldimand said the
difference between treated and un-
treated was so marked that neighbors
who crossed the field asked what was
wrong with the untreated portion.
Canadian Trade Commissioner, J. E.
Ray, cables to the Department of
Trade and Commerce, from Birming-
ham, that a firm in that city wishes to
obtain 30,000 casks of Canadian cider
during the present year. The quality
must, however, be guaranteed. The
Commissioner says there would appear
to be an excellent chance for opening
up an extensive business in this line of
product.

Absolute Control of Vaccination.
Absalute control over the vaccination
of children, whether in:publlc orprivate
schools, will be handed over to the Med-
ical Health Officers and local Boards of
Health by legislation introduced in the
the House by Hon. W. J. Hanna. The
bill is known as the vaccination act, and
comes from the State Revision Commis -
ion witn one or two important changes.
Sections sixteen and seventeen in the
old act have been omitted entirely. The
first provided that it should be lawful
for school trustees to enforce the pro-
duction of a certificate of vaccination
before allowing children to attend school
The following section (No. seventeen)
contains a provision that where it is
deemed necessary by the Medical Health
Officer, owing to the presence of small-
pox he may require a certificate of vac-
cination from pupils attending high
schools, colleges and universities.
One of the most serviceable of
aprons is made of soft table oilcloth.
It should come well up in front and
should be wide enough to cover the
skirt, nearly meeting in the back.
Residents of East Oxford are desir-
ous of an investigation into the way

It is claimed that value has not been
received for money expended, and

County Council has appointed a com-
mission of three to look into the mat-
er.
