Miss Alta Clark is hone from Lon- don for a few days, Mr. and Mrs. Sharpe have returned front their vacation, looking well. Ritchie & Cosens REAL ESTATE AND INSURANCE - WINGHAM Rev. Duncan is taking a month's vacation in Toronto and Unionville. Mrs. S. T. Holmes and daughter Eva, of Seaforth, are guests of J. T. and 3. G. Holmes, D. T. Walkom has returned from his vacation, and is prepared to serve the public at the station. It is reported that the telephone will soon reach us, so get ready to subscribe for instruments. J. T. Holmes has received three car- loads of drain tile from Drayton, and the station yard looks like a tile yard. Bert. Winfield, the genial clerk in T, A. Mills' store, Wingham, is spend- ing a couple of weeks' holidays visit- ing his mother here. Mr. R. Paterson has this mathe- matical problem on his hands -•"I have a rooster, two feet shorter than the normal ; how long is he ?" On Tuesday morning at the parson- age at Wingham, Mr. W. J. Miller of Sask., and Mrs. Davey of Dakota, were united in marriage by Rev. W. Howson. The happy couple took the afternoon train to Whitechurch, where they will spend a few days at the home of Mrs. T. Miller, Mr, Mil- ler's mother, and renew old acquain- tances as both Mr. and Mrs, Miller are natives of Kinloss, Mrs. Miller will be remembered as Miss Sarah Gaunt, second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Gaunt, of the 2nd con., while Mr. Mil- ler spent his boyhood days on the farm now known as the Barbour farm, on the 4th con. 121 tickets were sold here for the Sunday School excursion. The morn- ing was fine, and the excursionists made merry among themselves from 8.45 until 10.20. A little before nine, a train appeared in sight, but rushed past at a mile a minute rate, so no one attempted to get on. Later, the freight train from the west hove in sight, and there was talk of taking possession of it and running back to Kincardine, but when it was found to be loaded with porkers, the project was abandoned. Finally the second train came along, and was packed_to suffocation. They arrived at the lake safely, spending the afternoon dodg- ing thunder showers, and when we came back in the evening, we still had to dodge them. On Tuesday night, as our residents were about to retire, they were startled by the ominous sound of a cracked mould board, and a dark line of figures emerged from the darkness behind the Hall and proceeded toward the weigh scales and a short distance past it. We do not know how far they might have gone only some one in front of them, apparently the ene- my whom they were in search of, fired a couple of shots toward the ad- vancing party, which caused them to halt and some of them to retreat. Af- ter a council of war they hung up their instrument of music on the fence at the weigh scales, and till midnight they serenaded Jimmy Leech's sick horse, which was passing the night in the stock yard. We are sure the poor animal appreciated this kind atten- tion, as also did the people round about. Sometimes the music was really enlivening, and the patter of feet on the scale platform could be heard through the din, The boys de- serve credit and we are sure they will appreciate this notice of their self- sacrificing devotions. i- r -- Wall Paper season again !
