Local and Personal a very small concern compared witn that of the present day. Mr. Black is a remarkable oia gentleman in many res'ects, as you I will agree after reading these notes ! of his long life. Born in Inverness- shire, Scotland, he arrived in Ca.iaiia when only fourteen years of age, settling in the township of Eramosa, near Guelph. He came to Glenelg Township in 1855. He was married to Catherine McDonald, daughter or Archie McDonald, the ceremony be- iig performed by Rev. Father Gra- nnotiere at Owen Sound. To them were born thirteen children, eleven of v^hom are still living. These are, Angus in Dakota, John and Frank In Michigan, Alex, of Fort William, George ci the homestead, and Joseph in Toronto; Mrs. McCormick and Mrs. r^, , „ . â-  , t ^ â- â€ž' McDonald, living near the home; Mrs. The followmg special _featu«s will gowie, Mrs. McDonald and Mrs. Gra- ham, of Toronto Mr. Black never received a day's ^Special Features At Grey School Fairs Change of Election Date in Artemesia I ^ Al the last regular meeting of the ^ Artemesia Council it was decided to ♦ have the Clerk prepare a by-law foi /, the purpose of changing the Sale-j •? for nomination and election of thei? official ; of the township, to be pres- ented at the next meeting of i:ie Council. It ii p.-oposed to have the nominations the last Monday in Nov- ember and if c-.y election i? desireii to have it the first Monday in Dec- ember. It is expected that the by- law will be placed before the electors for 'heir ratification at the elections at the end of the year. We believe this wiil be an excellen: ,'. move on the part of the township l^ officials as it takes the election away * from the busy season around Christ-! - mas and New Years, and we believe' more interest would therefore be tak- en in the selection of a council. The 'e are many other places throu^houT Ontario that have already changed the dates and "-hey are well satisfieC with the results. ♦♦♦<-><>**^^***«>**'>4->>>>><-»-^*>><~>**<">*>>*>*>*><">>>^ « Flesherton Fall Fair, Sept. 19-20 Mr. 0.

Nelson Perdue, a very popular farmer in Holland Township has been nominitsd f-y the Conse;-\-::- tivc-3 to oppose Mr. Oliver, the pre- sent local representative of the riding. We understand he will have a largo majority of the vote of Hol- land. Dr. CampbeP was nominated several months ago as Miss Mc- Phail's opponent. In talking ie Durham Liberals we find the tend- ency is to support Miss McPhaii. They claim she was not given due credit for the part she played in securing a new post office for Dur- ham and are sympathetic towarui her. The U.F.O.still has consider- able strength through co-operative societies in South-East Grey ana with Liberal support in Durham and Hanover for the only lady member she should stand a good chance of re-election. We have heard very little about the situation in South-East from the provincial standpoint er:- J* cepting what we said about Mr. 'A Perdue being strong in his own !
