I will continue the story o1 our trip. We left.V'incou- vcr on . the 14th Feb, but before leaving 'here I wish'to snake mention of the many friends we had the priv- iloge of meeting, from Huron County, whose names are quite familiar to Clinton readers: uamely,Jack Crooks Dr. 011ie Courtice, and Will Holland, old, residents of the 11th con., God- erich tp., Charlie Lavis and sister( Mrs. Atkinson' of Mailtand eon., and Will Jenkins, brother of .

Our; boat left at 10.30 a'.mr and farewells' were waved until out of sight, The weather was fine, the scenery beautiful and;ust a lovely ripple on the water, •We 'reached 'Victoria 'at 30 p.m. :Had an hour to spend and spent -Most of it in the beautiful Par- liament'buildings and grounds The grass was quite green for, Feb. -14th, no snow. • Continuing our journey, whichproved to be enjoyable to the end, we arrived in Seattle at 9.30. This ends the C, P R. transoprt. At 11.15 p.m. we took the Union Pacific along the coast line to Port- land, arriving there at 6:45 arm. with just enough daylight to, see the great' bridge across the' Columbia river.' This bridge is . a mile ,and onehalf in:length, said to be the largest dou- ble span bridge in the world. Leav- ing Portland at 9 a.m. Wednesday we travelled on the Southern Pacific through Oregon, The scenery is very; interesting. Sometimes for miles through the fertile "valleys, then along the side .of mountains :ancl through tunnels crossing the Sacra- mento river 18 times -before reaching', San Francisco, During the following night we were held. for over two hours, owing .to a freght wreck• Most of ns wore sinconscions of it, Shortly alter daylight our train carie. to a very euciclent stop, on enquiring , we learned that a rock had descend- ed from the mountain side and block- aded our way, but serious damage was avoided. Cou f w. News., The U. F..0. at. Win g•ham has bought out Beninger's' creamery and is .going, to run 'it for the good of the members. Goderich is` u against difficulties dp S regarding its water supply. A depu- tation from the ,council ,waited on Dr. McCullough of the `.Provincial Board of Health, who told them a new filtration basin and intake pipe must be installed. The council has been considering the sinking of wells but the Doctor:•said they would not supply adequate water. The -eoun- eil is going ahead to sink a test tve1l. They• put 'a bylaw to the people in the 'fall asking 'for money for a new filtration plant :and it was turned down. Mr. George: Ring, Blyth's oldest citizen, who -was born on March' lst, 1832, in Prince 'Edward County, was given a 'complimentry:banquet;by the members of the Methodist. church,. of which he has always been a devoted member, on the occasion of his fast birthday.

J. Ransford & Sou, Uptown 'Agonts Phone 67, Along the valleys and foothills we 'saw Some very extensive sheep ran- ches,' f would judge some herds had 1,000 or more sheep. A few large herds of• cattle .could be seen, also, they appeared to bean poor condition. From 'two to three hundred miles along the line through the States of Oregon and -California there wasa large acreage of wheat." The spring wheat is just two' or three inches above ground. As we ascended the mountains we had'three .:engines attached to our train. The highest point was Mt. Shasta, 14.444 ft. above•' sea level. -the average grade up this mountain is 198' ft. per mile. Along the fertile valleys are extensive hop fields and rice fields and thousands of acres of orchard, mostly prunes, pears, with more variety the further south we went. • Before reaching San Franciscowe came to Port Costa, where we cross the Strait of Carcfuenze by having our train loaded onto the largest known ferry,; carrying 36 cars and 2 engines. From here' we, have an- other. half .hour tun to Oakland. Then we took the ferry across Fris- co Bay, a.distalsce ofabout five miles, arriving' at Frisco` at 8 p.m., Tursday, Feb. lath." Here we had our -tickets validated and remained a day, seeing some of the. beauty spots and finding things very interesting in general. At 8.15 p.m. en Friday, We left for Los Angeles, arriving there at noon; Saturday, where we spent four hours' before 'leaving for Redlands, which is a 75 -mile run. During this, run we passed through, Ontario, the city where several, of our, Ontario, people live, some from Clinton which 1: have since had the pleasure of meeting. Between Ontario and Riverside we viewed an 8,000 acre vineyard, which is owned by a company of Italians. We arrived in Redlands about 8.30 p,ni,, Saturday, 18th, after making over 1,600 miles of coast lisle and many miles in sight of the ocean. Travelling from Los Angeles to Red- lands is extremely pleasant as' it is just like riding through a large, well - kept orchard. In many places there are oranges, as far asthe eye can reach on either` side, then comes a walnut grove,, then 'another orange grove, then lemons and then vine- yardss as well as a great variety of • ornamental trees and other varieties 'of fruit, The frost this year; has done great damage. Carloads of or- anges are being plowed under. We are now enjoying; the hospital- ity of Mr, and'.Mrs, John Costello, the latter being my,, sister. Other' friends here from Goderich tp,, have given us a royal welcome, also.

THE WAY TIIE THING WORKS OUT IN NEW, MEXICO. The following extract is from the Roswell (New Mexico) Evening News and isefers to the work•oi Miss Katharine Taylor, sister of Mrs, A. D. Beaton of Clinton. The school nurse idea seems to he popular in New Mexico. Miss' Taylor visited friends here before going 'to take up this work: "Should you be of, the opinion that the health work being done in the county among the rural school ''chil- dren is falling on unfallow ground, a trip to soiree of the schools, along with the county nurse will dispel this false opinion, Eager is hardly the word to express the attitude of the children when the .Red Cross' nurse appears. They are enthusiastically eager. They are trying, and: trying hard to live -up to the mark she has set, and they are very familiar with, the rules of the game. They can re- peat the rules exactly and they give evidenceof having practiced these rules. that they are learning Lo 'wall< with ar free- easy swing, carrying their shoulders erect, And how deeply wo'r'd Crain the nurse sinks in, Once started on the health lessons they, are learning, the children aro pager to the point of exeitenlent, to toll what they have alt' practicing, as regards the hoeltk'1. '''rules,, And they, 'are carrying their lessons home, and. the whole family is interested. The county nurse is 0 welcome v'isitdr'in the rural homes of Chaves county, and her advice is sought regarding. the health of the children. Underweight, bad eyesight, poor 'hearing, underdevelopment, all these defects are being corrected through the never -tiring efforts of the county nurse, the eager willingness of the children, and the co-operation of the. parents. And better beys and better girls are being built; and better cit- izens are being' prepared. --H. A. S." COUnIt9 News At a meeting of contributors held on Monday evening at Goderich it was decided to erect a war memorial in the form of a monument in the court house square. A coilnnittee was appointedto get designs and prices, nialce a selection and make: other ar- rangements for the erection of the monument. It is hoped : it will be completed within the present year. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Van- Norman of Wingham have gone to IIamilta, Man., to farm, They ' in- tend to farm during the sunuher and will live in Vancouver during the winter. • ..There are' inspectors among the students in sonde of the•rural schools, Auction Sales and these inspectors line up their sol- diers' for inspection 'ofteeth, and hands, arias; necks, and ears The students are graded too upon these points, and those who have .followed the development' of such inspection can note the improvement in general personal appearance among the stu dents. They are taught, too the value of outdoor play; of fresh air in sleep- ing rooms; of proper -food, such as oatmeal, milk, eggs; and cornbreads;' of care of the hair. Nor is this all, The school room comes in. for its share of policing, too, for the nurse requires that it must ,be, clean, and orderly. Another point of value' that the children are learning, and -learning well is that of proper carriage. The little folks : in the rural school are proud of, the fact that they sit erect in their, seats; that they stand cor- rectly when: addressing the nurse; '1'ff UliS1 tr,1l 1Geh, 10:+2 stool drum land ' roller, cultivator, Frost Wood 1.2 -hoe drill, good as new, set o1 ', 9eetioit harrows, Walk- ing plow, new; riding plow, hese weeder,, 2 light wairons, dile harrow, hoary wagon,"gravel box, stock rack, 4 new wagon tongues, 30 feet of wa- tering trough for stable, buggy pole, new, 30 new cedar posts, fanning mill with sieves, grindstone, hay rope, 112 'feet, ear and pulley and slings, new, Brantford pumping' mill, open rubbil.' tiro buggy, set double harness, set single harness, several 'good collars, three sets doubletrees, root pulpei', and several other articles, Guarantee: Any cow represented to be in 'calf and proving not to he within( 30 days o'f date of sale, 10 tier cent of the purchase money will be refunded. • Terms: All sums 'of -,1310.00 and under, cash.
