Very often they ocularly demonstrate the fact that tire Ottawa Grits are not alto- gether so 'Godly' as bbey "might be. Sir, it will do me no good to give what is termed 'taffy,' but .if every editor emphasized his articles in the way you do, I believe it would be for the good and welfare of the whole community." REMovrNO FROM To wN.—,Arlon; with their many friends THE NEwS- RNWOR.D regrets very Rnuch the con- templated removal of 411% Dufton and family from Chntem. 'A woollen mill store should be a paying concern here and their, removal will be a decided loss to neighboring producers and Clinton as well. Through her active and jovial disposition and business aptitude bliss Dufton has made a host of friends who will very much regret the change. However,. THE NRws-RECORD wishes theworthy departing residents every possible seiccess in whatever sphere their Int may be cast. In a short time Mr. Dufton and family remove from here to London.

Morrish ; Sec.-Treas., 1. R. Read ; Cap- tain, Larry J. Hanlon; Executive Com- mittee, Shorty Cantelon, B. Potts and G. Haxby. It was decided to enter a team in the C. L. A., as there are it number of the old boys back and soma new blood springing tip it is thought that the prospects are brighter than ever before for putting a winning team in the field. If the boys get the support which they deserve there is no doubt but that they will make a very creditable showing. They will start practice as soon as the grounds are fit. WATER WORKS FOR CLINTON.—For years I•HE NEws-RECORD has contend- ed that Clinton would from force of circumstances be compelled to adopt a differ ent System for fire protection and of se,.-uring pure water for household purposes. At the Council meeting on Monday the matter was discussed in Committeeofthe Wholeatsomelength, the majority of the mcinhers favoring water works. The Council should without delay appoint it committee to ascertain where a pure supply of water can be procured from for all purposes and to make an estimate of the prob- able cost of a thorough system. To comply with the demands of the Fire Underwriters Association an expendi- ture of some $1,600 will be required, and afterward 1,000 to $1,200 annually. This would pay interest on debentures amounting to considerable money, which would go rt long way toward putting in a water works system. We hope the matter will he a mated by the Council and serioasly taken up by the people of Clinton. 33,33..-. ..: •._. :3333,, Miss Freeborn is this week visiting in l ayfleld the guest of Rev. Smith.
