Clerk School Pair at Belmore The four public school sections in the vicinity of Beirnore purpose holding a unoin school fair at Belmore this fall, and have commenced making arrangements for same. The four municipalities cornering at Belmore will be asked to contribute, through the local councils and every effort will be put forth to make the event a grand success Half a century ago the village of Belmore was the scene of many largely attended fall fairs, which were the envy of the surrounding towns. THE ADV.ANCE has just printed the prize list in pamphlet form. Dogs Worry Cattle To Death A couple of bull dogs from Wingham have done considerable damage to stock in this vicinity of late. Mr. Fred Hogg and Mr. John Arinour have both lost yearling cattle because of the vicious at- tacks of these menials. Mr. Armour in- forms us that they ate the ears of his animal and badly chewed its head and body The dogs were caught at their depredation at three different times, and in each case attacked the man who molested them. Mr. Armour traced the dogs home on Sunday evening and they have since been destroyed. We believe that any farmer would be jnstified in shooting any dog that strays on his premises.
