Wesley -Willis To Rebuild.
Negotiations for union of the two
*Clinton United Church congregations
'having failed the Wesley -Willis board'
met on Thursday evenng and 'passed"
unaninteus resolution to rebuild the
•church which was destroyed byfire
two months ago for the accomodation
•of their own congregation. A build-
ing committee was appointed and S.
B. Coon and Son of Toronto will sub-
mit plans and the work will be rush
ged forward as speedily as possible.,
.douse Destroyed By Fire.
A fine brick residence on the farm
of William.. Craig, on the 11th con
'<cesssion of Howick Township," was
„completely destroyed by fire, together
with the entire •.contents, shortly of
ter midnight , on Wednesday. The
house hadlbeenunoccupied for some
'time. Furniture belonging tothe es
'tate of .the late: -Mrs. ,Catherine Mc-
Leod, which had been stored in the
'building, was consumed by the blaze.
The origin of the 'fire is unknown.
Wingham Girls Anti Boys are for-
tunate . in .more ways than one. In
• the first place' if Barnett Bros. Circus
had made their 'date for Wir ghatn
just one week later.there' would cer-
tainly have, been some weeping. and
'wailing and knashing of •teeth on the
part of the Girls and Boys in par-
ticular seeing that they are notedifor
good attendanceand have a real ab-
'horance for indulging:in that oldtirne
'but popular (with some) 'game of,
"playing truant" It was the .first Cir-
cus for many and it would have been
a real trial if school had precluded
the possibility of ''"taking it in."
"Wingham Girls+ acid Boys are fortun-
:ate in another respect ;for At is doubt-
ful if any are unable 'to procure the
actual necessities of life such as .cloth-
ing, shoes etc., why it `a fact that
some three million children refugees
:arrived in Greece some months ago,
with no shoes or stockings—the :only
foot -gear being rags and more rags:.
:In speaking of school shoes We wis'h
to point otit tnir very deterntined •de
-sire to procure those, while reasonable
in price would give undoubted wear.,
and in this we have succeeded as never'
'before, Good serviceable shoes for
'School wear that will give "undotibted:
wear" and within the 'parse of„every-i
one. This surely is a good cavililea-,
tion. We invite the 'Mothers and Pa-:
thers to inspect our elccellertt ,variety.'

LOCAL SOFT BALL TOURNAMENT
DRAWS ENTHUSIASTIC CROWDS
On Thursday evening last the first
game of the local soft ball tourna-
ment was staged' between Alex Coutt's
Lions and Jack Lockridge's Giants, in
the. Town Park, resulting in a win for
the Lions by the score of 14-7. The
score *was no indication of the game
as the teams 'were evenly matched,
the Lions getting -the breaks and get-
ting ` hits when they counted ; most,
while the Giants' hits were scattered.
Wilfred French, a heavy hitter on the
Lions' Team, made a record in local
soft ball history by knocking two
home runs with one on base each
time.
The second game of the tourna-
ment was played between Doc 'How -
son's Savages and Walter VanWyck's
Tigers, on Monday evening: Two
more evenly matched teams would be.
hard to find and at the end of the
game stood a tie 3-3 necessitating ,an
extra inning in which the Savages
won out by a timely hit with a man
on second and third after two risen
had been retired. Very few errors
were made by either team:
The Lions proved they were hard
to tame on Tuesday night and de-
feated the Savages by the close score
of 12-11, thereby 'winning first prize
in the local tournament. The Lions
started on an early rampage and hart
the would-be tamers 7-0 before they
realized that the game had any more
than started. When they did wake
up they made it very interesting and
exciting for the icing of beasts, , but
could not overcome the long lead.
The next game of the tournament
will be played on Friday evening with
the `Giants and Tigers as the opposing
factors, to decide who -will meet the
Savages, •losers of< Tuesday night
game, for second prize.
The games are called for 6.15 each
evenjng with Mr. Allister Forbes in
charge behind the plate.
FIRE AND WATER
DOES BIG DAMAGE
About 7 o'clock in Tuesday even-
ing, smoke was •noticed issuing from
the millinery store of Miss Brewer,
the fire alarm was sounded and when
the firemen arrived had to .force an
entrance through the front door and
soon had a stream of water flooding
the store but doing no effective' work,
another stream was put in the rear
the building and in a short time had
the fire out. The cause of the fire
is believed to be an electric iron,
which had been neglected when the
store was closed and soon overheated,
The stock, although not very large;
*as ..completely destroyed by water
and smoke. 'The stock of used fur-
niture stored in the upstairs of the
building and owned by Mr, A. J. Wal-
ker was also badly damaged by smoke.:
The Building which is owned by Mr.
Gregory, was badly burned in the part
which had been used as Miss Brewer's
work room where the fire originated.
Both the losses of Miss Brewer and
Mr. Gregory are covered by insur-
ance
Mr. Gregory intends to immediately
remodel the building putting in an up-
to-date front and making other neces-
sary improvements to make it a mod-
ern building.
