Master Fred Hargrave of Rock Mills informs The Advance that he has trapped 85 groundhogs on his father's farm during the past three years. He secured 35 this summer. These were fed to black foxes at 10c. per. and netted a nice little penny of spending money. It will also save a lot of grain which these animals are prone to destroy.

Bee Got Into Car Upset Into Ditch One day last week when Miss Al- eda Mitchell was driving a party of ladies out to Feversham she met with an accident that was rather nerve-wracking to the occupants of the car. When out about six miles from town a bumblebee entered the car unbidden and proceeded to make himself disagreeable. Miss Mitchell practically stopped the car in her ef- forts to "shoo" the unwelcome guest, but the wheels went oS the road and the sedan turned over on its side. The only damage done was a broken window glass and dinged fenders. No- body W4S seriously hurt. It was a remarkable escape from what might have been a serious accident. EORTLAW Fall wheat threshing has been go- ing on and big yields of good grain is the general report. Farmers are now in the harvest of spring grain. In the early part of the season clouds were more plentiful than sunshine and prospects appeared gloomy and it seemed hard to realize that the copious rains was just what was needed, and now in fulfilment of the old promise that "springtime and harvest shall not fail," we are rejoic- ing in a bountiful crop of all kinds. It was a happy company that as- sembled at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Taylor on Tuesday evening of last week, the occasion being Mt. Zion church annual garden party. The spacious and shady grounds was an ideal location for the event. An abundance of tasty viands was pro- vided and after their disposal the pas- tor. Rev. Mr. Duffield, took the chair and introduced a choice and chaste program which was pronounced as one of the best ever enjoyed in this part. Among those who took part were Mrs. McCallum and Miss Hen- derson, duets; Dr. Murray and Mr. Cross of Flesherton, each solos; Dr. Guy and Mrs. McCallum, duet; Mrs. G. Lawlor, solo; Miss Emily Acheson, two readings; the Maple Leaf orches- tra gave a number of instrumental selestions which were well received and a generous supply of delightful music by the Dundalk band. Mr. and Mrs. R. Hannah visited with friends at Orillia. Mr. H. Holman of Toronto visited with friends around his old home on the 4th line last week. Mr. Beamish of Dundalk is engaged with his well-drilling outfit at Mr. Thomas Brown's. O.ur school started on Tuesday with Miss Risk as teacher. Miss Lizzie Blakey of Dundallc was home over Sunday. Miss Hazel Shunk of Toronto vis- ited lately with her friend, Mrs H. Fisher. Misses Gladys and Eva Hannah of Markdale visited last week with her aunt, Mrs. R. Hannah. DISTURBED THE .MEETING Four Euphrasia township young men leceived a lesson in etiquette last week if not in morals, that will probably be remembered. They were found guilty of having disturbed public worship in the Methodist church at Epping, and Magistrate Creasor permitted them to pay for their fim to the extent of §10.86 each. The young "'bloods" had enjoyed a "wonderful" time, making sport of the preachers and those who attended the meetings, and even damaged the church property, it appears. Magistrate Creasor intimated that the boys would be privileged to pay a heavy fine if they ever appeared before him again on a similar charge. â€" Meaford Mirror. BROUGHT OIL TRUCK UP Mr. Harmon Hales went to Toronto Monday morning and returned the same night with the new British- -â- Vmerican oil truck which he will use in delivering gasoline from the tanks at the station. Better Than Teaching There is no longer any comparison. .A lady stenographic graduate of Luck- now, a year ago started in Detroit at thirty dollars a week; now she is drawing sixty dollars per week. If in doubt, ask for phone number or add- ress of parents. This may be only exceptional, but thousands of our lady graduate.'? with one or more years ex- perience, have reached thirty dollars per week, and no good graduate of today need start at less than twenty- five per week. Over one thousand testimonials from Dufferin and Well- ington. Enter any day. A position for every graduate. Home study for those who cannot attend. Fall term from September 2.
