FROM DAKOTA. -Mrs; McGregor,
who has been in Dakota for seven years,
returned last ,'1'hursiay. Her eon has
been located ou•a farm in Walsh County,
Kinloss town;• for abont eight years,
For five years in succession the trope,
have been a:• failure. Mr.' 'olcGregor
made. a very good ,start and hia pros-
pects seemed fair, but the successive
crop failure has convinced him that
he must try his'iuck elsewhere. Ile
will do so with less mooey than he
took' to Dakota, though.. Mrs. Mc-
Gregor informed THE NEWS RECORD
that her son will in all likelihood try
hie f,irtunes • in our .Canadian North
west. Mrs. McGregor is an old time
resident of the 7th con., Goderich
township, and while in tawrf was the
pleat, of her old and respected neigh
bor, Mrs.Thos. 0: Cooper.
SoUOoL, .. TALK —The total rate
in Clinton is 19 mills, on the ddllar,
made up as follows: County rate, 1 ;
town rate, 6; special rate, 1 ; ,consoli-
dated debt rate, 2; eehool rate, 8. It
will be seen that the school rate ie
much higher than any of the other
four. It is, quite proper that our
schools should be kept np t0 4_144
Standard. In fact it is necessary. But,
it ie:difficultjust to find why more inter-
est is not manifested 'in school mattete.
�t
the various boards it' is frequently
difficult to secure a quorum for the
transaction of the ordinary routine
business. This is not right or proper
or in keeping with the great cost
of these necessary .institutions. But
the people mani'feet less interest than
the trustees. And wh'y' We are
looking for a reason. People, many
people, we .have .heard complain dur-
ing the Iast'fewweeks aboutthe apparent
high school rate. But.you never find
them interested enough to attend Board
meetings. The people should' become
more conversant in echool matters.
More rivalry should be enthused into
trustee elections. ..These Bdarde are
more important, in•some respects, than
the town council, and- citizens should
become more familiar with their doings.
,Then we would hear lees grumbling
and probably more practical interest
manifested in school work.

CHRISTMAS CHEI?n.—Cbristmas cheer
comes but once a year. Outside of
purely businose matters the term is
generally taken as 'a matter of fact.
But the Christmas cheer in this
case that was on its joyful way
travelled a great many miles and
on the last few yards of its long
journey happened with a mishap.
Thursday was a very busy day in THE
NEws-RECORD° office and a messenger
was despatched for the afternoon mail.
Among a mase of daily and weekly lit-
erature and correspondence was a letter
from an esteemed friend and eubsdrib-
er at Oxbow, Aim. But the letter was
not delivered by the carrier at this
office. Her Majesty's reliable - and
faithful Canadian mail service had car-
ried it safely to the Clinton Post Office
and it was delivered to the carrier here
but lost on the sidewalk after travel-
ling many hundreds of' miles.
A gentleman picked it up and
knowing the editor and the splen-
did location ofTHE NEws-REooRn
office handed the letter to the rightful,
owner. We sincerely thanked the finder
and opened the letter in the presence
of, a couple of gentlemen to- ascertain
the contents. It was a very welcome
epistle, of the genuine Christmas Cheer
nature. Hero is what, it said (omitting
the signature):
Oxbow, Dec. 7,1":i!2.
