storm period is in progress as we pass
from August into September, Reaction
to anti -storm conditions may occur on
and touching the end and 3rd, but the
presence of the Mercury period, cen-
tral on the 3rd, together with the in-
creasing force of the earth's autumnal
eq•anox, will cause a continuation of
unsettled weather. These combined
causes will add emphasis to, and pro-
long the existence of all equatorial
storms, that may appear in the regions
of our Southern coasts about this time.
A regular storm period extends from
the 4th to the 8th of September. This

MEETING 08 COUNTY BOARD. -'rhe
Board of Examiners for the County of
Huron met at Seaforth on Saturday,
August 29th. There were present D.
Robb. B. A., J. Elgin Tom and J. H.
Cameron. After routine business the
Board considered the case of those who
had passed the Model School examine•
tion in December 1907, but who had not
obtained their non professional stand-
ing. By regulation of the Education
Department, County Boards have note
uo authority to greet third class certifi-
cates ; such certificates are in future to
be granted by the Department. The
Secretary of the Board was therefore
instructed to get the non-professional
certificates of those who had obtained
then!, send them to the Education De
partmeut with a statement that they had
passed the Model School Examination
in Dec. 1907, and get third class certi-
ficates for them. The Board also decid-
ed to grant the extensions of third class
certificates as heretofore. Geo. Baird.

MOST CREDITABLE AND SATISFACTORY.
-The Trustee Board of Brussels Metho•
dist church decided to beautify their
place of worship and visited several out-
side towns where similar work had been
done so as to decide on modern plans
and compare notes After clue con-
sideration the contract was awarded to
W. C. Smith, of Brussels, al hough
estimates from well known ontside ex-
perts were also at band. A committee
consisting of R. Leather dale A, T.
Lowry, S. T. Plum and W. H. Kerr,
was put in charge. That a most credit-
able and satisfactory job was done can-
not be gainsayed and the artistic taste
and skill known to be possessed by the
contractor has been proven to a demon-
stration. To paint and decorate the
walls and ceiling of so large an edifice
was 110 small undertakiug but the work-
men stuck faithfully to their posts until
the finishing touches were put on, The
with decorations of
are in buff tv t
walls �
heavy gold border in purple and red.
Arches over windows are In white and
dove and panels in buff: There is an
under freize border of 22 inches, nicely
decorated in green, gold and white. A
beauty spot is the choir gallery,
trimmed
with dove and blue,
a drop
border clone
in Egyptian style and au imitation of
English wall paper. Over the arch is
the text "Let the people praise Thee 01
God," in red and yellow. The effect is
all that could be desired. The ceiling
which is matched ash has 15panels, done
in Egyptian pattern, 6 of them in blue
and remainder in dove. A mild gray
was used in the entrance to the church,
panelled and.decorated in red and white.
"Come and worship in His temple" is in-
scribed on the North wall in the vesti-
bule in red and white lettering. The
seats and wainscotting, gallery, &a. were
brightened up by shellac and varnish
so well administered the stickiness of the
seats often noticeable is entirely wanting.
Outside the wood work was painted
stone and white. Last Sunday was the
first day services were held in the audi-
torium since being decorated and many
expressions of pleasure were voiced by
members of thecougregation and visitors
who were resent, whose belief is that
the design, workmanship and general
tone is not superseded by the best handi-
work in edifices of other towns, The
Trustee Board in accepting the work
and paying Mr, Smith deem no small
credit is due him for the satisfactory
completion of so large a contract and his
desire to conform and comply with the
expressed wish of the Committee and
the Board will be pleased at any time to
testify to others of Mr. Smith's ability to
duplicate the work. This was his initial
contract but be hasgiven atnpleevidence
of his skill to carry to a successful issue
the decorative art possessed by him to so
large a degree. Brussels Methodist
church will afford oecular demonstration
that should satisfy the most skeptical.
The work is certainly a credit to the
church and the contractor as well.
