We have reas to believe that there
is a oonsiderabl number of deaf chil-

who are not att nding our Institution,
lint who should o doing so, We are
desirous ot obt ening the' names and
addresses of the arente of all such chil-
e 9dren, and we ea nestly appeal to the
xolden, of these nes to assist ns in se -
tearing the infer ation. Clergymen of
all denomination , phyeioians, assessors,
inspectors of soh cls and public school
teachers are in n especially favorable
position to assis ns 1n this direction,
and by so doing they would bo conferr-
ing an inestima le boon to these silent
members of the =community. Our desire
is to enter into ,orreapondenoe with -the
parents of all deaf children with the
Hope of indnoin •them Co send them to

e▪ oeive such trt ining and instruction as
w ill fit them to becomb useful, self.

a lamentable thong that any deaf boy ori

WELL-KNOWN PEOPLE )
Mit. Gramm El MAGUIRE
Morris Tow ship Pioneer.
This week we giv under the heading
"Well-known Peo e," a picture of a
gentleman •who is ell -known in this
district. Mr. Chart s Maguire was born
in Ireland some sev nay years ago and
in early manhood ame to Canada to
make a home for 1 imself. Over fifty
years ago he Dame o Morris Township
and took up lot No 8, on the 2nd con-
cession, and here r. Maguire and his
family continued o reside nutil last
March. During t e fifty years oon•
sinuous residence o the one farm, Mr.
Maguire saw many heregee, When he
first took np his Ian,it was all covered
with bush and very ew people bad lo-
cated in this distrix . He was told that
he was too far fr m civilization and
that this part of he country would
never be cleared u , but Mr. Maguire
thought he could li a in the new land if
the other few settles could do so, and
he has lived to see this section one of
the very best corn nuttier in Western
Ontario. Mr. Ma vire is a man held in
high esteem by a laege number of people.
After fifty years tff hard work on the
farm, in which hey experienced the
trials and hardshi s of the pioneer, Mr.
and Mrs, Maguire are now spending a
few months visit( g with their children
in the West and on their return we
would be much pl ased to welcome them
as residents of Wi gham.
Not fro D Wingham.
On Saturday, jest at six o'clock, two
well dressed men were making their
way to the station; one of them, how-
ever, had an awful bad attack of "ner-
vous
collapse" and could neither walk
straight, stand etrai ht, or see straight;
he was so absolutel helpless that he
flip-flopped everywa . He probably be
longed to Wingham. Clinton New Era.
We do not believe t s man belonged to
Wingham. Last w k the editor spent
a day in Clinton an also a day in God-

DEAR MR EDITO •—Please permit me
space to say a word egarding the condi-
tion of our cemeter It is no credit to
the community th e t our "City of the
Dead" should be allwed to go so niece -
ed for as it is. We de and unout grass,
and monuments fal en and broken make
it a scene of desolation. Several plots
are in beautiful , der, but they only
throw into greats contrast the neglect-
ed aspect of the there. The resting
place of our dee should be a plane of
hallowed beauty. Who let responsible
for the care of the cemetery? Whether
it lies with the town, or with the own-
ers of Iota, publi); sentiment should stir
ns to remedy the.almost profane state of
neglect in which] the cemetery at present
is. Yours very truly,
T.S.B.
WHEN AND VHAT TO READ.
If you are impatient sit down quietly
and have a talk with Job.
If you are just a little strong -headed,
go to see Moses. 11
If yon are getting weak-kneed, take a
look at Elijah.
If there is no ng in your heart, list-
en to David.
If you. are gtt ting sordid, epend a
while with Isaiah.
If your faith iasbelow par, read Paul
If you are ettngg l zya watch James.
If you are Beef eg sight of the future,
olinhb up to Reveliation and get a glimpse
ot the promised Mud.
