GIVE MEN A JOB, A citizen theother day, remark- ing on the number of transients who stop in town for meals, said he thought it would be a good idea for the town fathers to get some cords wood and when a man came alohg and wanted a meal, ask him to saw up some wood, A self-respecting tnan would rather do something to pay his way and anyone who doesn't want to do a small amount of work is not badly in need of a meal. The woodcould ou d ibe supplied as needed ded to needy families in town, or sold to citizens needing fuel. FUNERAL OF MRS. EGAN The funeral of the late Mrs. Mar- garet J.

Capt. Patterson of Bluevale, on "Rus- sia." Gapt, Pateersoii, who has travelled extensively,!' has visited Russia and saw something of condi- tions there. People„ here have little idea of the condi- tion of the Russian: peasant,lie says, who has been ground down by centuries of toil and hardship. Con-' ditions are such as Canadians have no realization of. The fivey ear plan, he felt, was a complete failure and he did not see anything to indi- cate ,that the condition of the com- mon people had, been improved. There is no individual freedom, all belongs to the state. Mr. H. K. Calver s4ng a solo and Mr. Fred llfutch contributed a cnu- pie of bagpipe selecti6ns during the evening and Mr. G. H.

SEND ALONG TIIE NAME .It might be supposed that it ha been stated so often that newspa per s must have the name of ceratin butors before an item could be pub lished that no one would send in an unsigned article. But occasionally they do. Last week we received a demmunication signed "Onlooker,' accompanying which were two ar titles for publication, each signed by a name, but not in either case by the sender. This makes it doubly impossible for us to publish. The editor of a newspaper must know just where to lay a hand upon any - ens contributing matter for publica- tion, not necessarily for publication., certainly not in this case, but we rapist know who is responsible for sending in the staff for publication. Send along the name, friend, or the matter will not be used. e •• Paid to The News -Record for a- er bove fund: et I.

Our calendar this year has two outetand- ing features, it has an artistic scgnr, rue mite pretty enough to hang in any home, and the calendar pad 1'1 iarge and has ve' y clear letterhase.

I, f f DESERVESCREDIT The following front The Guelpl Mercury of Friday last containe the following, which refers to a ge ileman well-known in Clinton. D Fowler has ever been a lover o horses: "There is no question that one o the most important features in con nection with the Guelph Winter Fail i the light fight horse show, at least ipso far as Guelph people are concerned Annually, the hunting :saddle, ant harness events which snake up the brilliant evening program bring to this .city scores cf exhibitors who otherwise would never come and they add an attraction to the show which is possibly the greatest from a standpoint of color and picturesque; Hess. The horse show 'is a com.petratively new development, but it has proven an overwhelming success. This fact is almost entirely due to the efforts of Dr. W. J. R. Fowler of this city. Dr. Fowler, who is a member of the board of directors, and superinten; dent of the horse ring, shicceeded in initiating the light horse programs and he has been the' moving spirit in it ever since. He has worked in- defatigably to ensure its success., and not always has he received the co- operation which he .might expect. He has developed the evening pro- grams, and conceived a series of special "stunts" which have- won popular approval. The saddle sporting tandem, which is eneettalled even' among :the per- formance events for thrills,, can br- seo)i nowhere in Canada except at the Guelph Fair, and Dr. Fowler is the man who introduced it here, The horse OWNowes its very. ex- istence to him, and citizens should appreciate the fact." • OWL WINS BY BIG MAJORITY . Mr. J. J. Allen has just been el- ected mayor of Ottawa fee the third time, obtaining it larger vote than his two opponents combined, The Ottawa. Citizen comments Haus editorially: "There is little to find fault with in the results of the elec- tion yesterday for the ,1283 City Council. So far as the Mayoral- 1 ty and Board of Control are concerned, the choice of the citi- zens is satisfactory to a de- gree, They chose about the best city executive available. There were a few surprising aspects of i race, but the final outcome was largely as was hoped and ex- • s peeted. Mayor Allen's return by a zea- c jority over his two opponents is a a' matter for gratification, Evi- g densly his two years in the office •is of chief magistrate have per- t suadod the taxpayers that his ad- t ministration has been sound and e hopeful. His triumphant ra- i c turn assures the continuation of policies inaugurated in 1030, t and should embolden the mayor I o to go forward with greater ag- gressiveness in the future with the process ;of building up. an ef- I s ficient permanent administra • Clinton opens the season here on December 27th, Mitchell being tike visiting team.
