Dear Folks,—This may cross one from you, but I feel' we 1111.1 sit write once more ,'from across the water. In less, than two weeks we leave. The days are Sufi of last visits, sight- seeing and, shopping, We are glad to sec some warm [lays after much rain. I must write something about our trip to Ireland. We just had live days there, but loved it. The people were very easy going, cheery, and full of talk. We went from Belfast to the Giants Causeway on the north coast; to Londonderry, the . walled. city;; through Donegal to Drumcliffe in the west, to the church where my grandfather attended, and to some ruins that had once been the home of some of the relatives. In the west the honae5 are all whitewashed cot- tages wilth 'blooming roses on thein. Each farm has its donkey and its goat. Hens and pigs run round the door, and the barn is attached to the cottage. The country -.side is overgrown with high hedges, trees and flowers, almost rank from much rain. The 'hills make it lovely and picturesque. We were one night in Sligo, an ancient town. We went by bus to Dublin, a long trip across through beautiful country, becoming more fertile, and quilte prosperous. Dublin is a great city, mashing and 'modern. The trip up the coast to Belfast was also a long one, through a lovely district. There we stayed with friends of a girl we melt in To- ronto. Very kind people indeed, who showed us the linen shops, the parks, buildings and city, which is huge, like Toranito. From a park up a mountain we saw away out the bay for miles. Ireland is the country! ..: iAt the tHighiand Show we were near 'the Prince, and got some ex- cellent snaps of him. There were 48,000 there that day. We received an invitation to the Royal Garden ,Party newt week, given by Their Majesties, the King and Queen, Thursdays .'from 4 to 6, alt Holyrood 'Palace Gardens. It will be quite exciting, and we hope and pray for a nice day. Taxis have gone up to 8 and 10 dollars for that day, so we shall use our feet. Nearly all are spoken for, and for the Presenta- tions, the day before. Edinburgh snakes money out ,of the Royal visit. Just now we see many Americans and Canadians around. Love to all of you. Yours, K. THE BEAUHAENIOIS PROBE. The Beauharnois Power Corpora- tion probe which has :occupied the headlines the past few days, has a couple of points of local interest, be- sides possible local investors. Sir John Aird, 'president of the 'Canadian Bank of Commerce, who was .called as a witness, is anfor her Seaforth res- ident. Sir John Aird recommended that "the situation he cleared up at the earliest moment in the interests of the country so that .the public and people who 'have .invested in this com- pany might know exactly where they are," I•f it is permissible .to refer in a light vein to a situation as serious as the recent disclosures at Ottawa, someone says if the probe will unearth where that million dollar campaign fund ,vas stored after it wasgiven to Senators Hayden- and Raymond, a year-ald mystery niay be cleared up concern- ing what, if anything, was in a huge safe -removed from the ,Liberal com- mitteeroonm Seaforth the clay after the election last July. TUCKERSMITH. Two Brussels young men returning home From a dance about seveno'- clock in the morning, stopped and picked up 'five geese belonging to Mr. Wesley Nott, from the roadside. lir, Herbert Fowler. who lives opposite, saw the ear back asp to the geese, and phoned across to bar. Nott, who gave chase in his car, following them to Brucefield and thence to Clinton, and as the chase became hotter the geese were dumped out on the highway, but Mr. (Nott kept after them 'until he se- cured their license number. Four of the geese were recovered; a 'valuable one worth S7 is still missing. The two chaps appeared in police court at Goderich and were remanded for a week. A charge was also ('aid for fail- ing to transfer the license of the car which haat recently been purchased. Mr. Nott deserves great credit for his pluck in catching the thieves, as Poul- try robberies are too frequent. Mill Read and.

The cemetery is one that has been levelled up and seeded by friends of the departed, and a eiew fence is being put around it, having stone .po's'ts across the frontbuilt on cement foundations, which has im- proved it very .much and when finish- ed it will be a very 'fine cemetery.

With the vest, the combination of watch and chain provides an essential touch of dignity to your attire which nothing else can supply. But every man can easily afford two watches. A good watch costs no more than a suit of clothes. It gives you many years of service. And style and convenience both demand the strap watch as an additional timepiece. Whether it is a strap or a pocket watch that you are now about to buy, it is important that you consider the quality of the case as well as the movement. Insist on the celebrated Wads- worth Case—your assurance of correct style,4, finest materials, and exquisite workmanship. Fred S. Savauge Jeweller and Optometrist Phone .194 Evening 10' friends.
