DEAR MRS. CAMPBELL,-Pleaseaccept
my sincerest sympathy to you in the loss
ot your sou, Corp. H. Campbell, 127356,
His brother will give yell, derails of his
heath and burial, He died like the hero
he was leading his section into a nest of
machine guns and a trench mortar. A
bullet bit him and killed him instautly,
I lost a vety valuable N. C. 0., a mighty
clean living boy and one always to be re
lied upon, Often I thought how proud
his mother must be of him and his
brother, who stand out as two real men.
All 111s pals, as well as all the officers of
the Company thought a great deal of him
and all of us feel bis loss very much.
With all our most wonderful outstanding
victory of the day a loss such as this
softens the glow of triumph, but alas we
cannot beat that beast of nations unless
we fight, Again all I can say that my
whole heart is with you, and your hus-
band in these hours of trial, From
another mother's boy.

• THINGS SAID PLENTY GOOD ENOUGH
Foss A 'TOMBSTONE, -Wednesday even-
ing of last week a good sized audience,
of men and women, assembled in Brus-
sels'lbwn Hall to hear Geo. Spotton,
the independent Conservative candidate
for North Huron, peel the bide off the
"Ananias Club" ot Wingham. Richard
Procter, Belgrave, made a model chair-
man and introduced the silver toned
'rhos. R. Bennett and Juo. Groves,
town Clerk, oe Wiugham, as curtain
raisers, They did the trick all rigitt and
with humor, "jabs" at the Kaiser band
and hogeess for their favorite candidate
filed in their time very well. Mr,
Spotton spoke at length and almost en-
tirely on personal matters and the way
he had been cheated out of what was
honestly his at North Huron Tory Con-
veutiou. He bumped Hon, 'Ikey"
Lucas for bis visit to Gerrie and Ford-
wich and his attempt to stir up anti-
pathies by disparaging Sir Wilfrid
Laurier before a body of Orangemau ;
of the members of the Provincial Cabe
net to coax him out of the contest ; of
Pion. Ferguson's denial that he said he
thobght Spotton was cheated out of
nomination and produced affidavits from
Messrs, Procter, Vanstone, Town and
Ellis who declared they heard him say
so, of the silliness of Dr, Case peddling
bis soldier boys pictures through rbe
riding to draw sympathy ; and of his
(Spotten't) disinclination to be hound
down to follow the Hearst (hearse) &c.,
&c. A couple of hours were occupied
in all but no attempt airs made to deal
with public issues or discuss the questi-
onsot the day. Mr. Spotton has a glib
tongue and Irish wit and gave his W eig-
ham political frieuds of other days a
great blackballing. His crack at A. H.
-Musgrove accepting Wingham Post -
mastership instead of passing it over to
a returned soldier lost its thud when
folk knew that Geo. wss one of the
head pushers urging Mt. Musgrove's ap-
pointment, Meeting closed with the
National Auteem.

The annual report of Dr, T. T. MIc-
Rae, Medical Health Officer, was react.
It was as follows
BRUSSELS QouNeiL, GENTLEMEN. -
Allow me to report conditions per-
taining to Board of Health for the
Village of Brussels, Influenza has
been oar only disease of an epidemic
mature this year and inside of the
Corporation we have had only 8 cases.
Of these 6 cases came home to Brus-
sels suffering from the malady.
There were only 2 cases of people who
worked iu the Post Office. We have
had no deaths. At present we are
entirely free from any infections dis-
eases whatsoever, When the epidem-
ic reached Seaforth South of 319 we at
once closed our churches and schools
and forbade assemblies of any kind
within the village. The advice ae to
preventive treatment provided by the
Provincial Board of Healtle and re-
ceived by the Local Board, was hand-
ed on to the citizens through the
agency of THE BRUSSELS POST and
also by the local physicians privately
and my private opining is that the
village was saved from many a death
by taking the action we did. Every
stable where horses are kept is pro-
vided with a manure receptacle, with
the exception of one, and Lille will be
remedied before May lst, 1919., There
was some Carelessness with some of
the receptacles :not being covered,
those rases were reported to our
Board by the Constable regularly bet
we diel require to use drastic measures
to accomplish our pperp080 to have
them kept closed, We appeal to the
citizens to'report• cases of carelessness
to the Constable. We must congrat-
ulate the proprietors of our industries,
the woollen n1i11, butter factory, plan-
ing mill, livery stable, and carriage
factory and blacksmith shops tuid

physicians for examination.
