Notwithstanding it wa-s a ni.^at busy time with the farmers of the rieisrh- borhood and the night was most unfavor- able for an assemblege of people â€" raining heavily most of the evcnin.,', a g"odIy number gathered and enjoyed themselves indoors with games, singing, etc. The procsuda of the evening amounted to about twenty dailara.

From aha;iJsome illustrated prospectus of the Meaford high school,, issued by £ne Mirrevr printing othce, Meaford. we learu that this up-to-date and very well-known high .schiol has aaain been unusually suc- cessful in its work for the year. Seventy- eight per cent of those recommended p.assed the various axammatiotis. Of the 28 who wrote for Part II Junior Leaving, 22 were successful ; and some of these successful ones spent only one year in the high school and at tiieir entrance to the high school knew nothing of Algcba*, Euclid, Latin and German. We notice also the wide range of work done this year by this sciv-xd, â€" Matriculation, Junior and Senior Leaving, Scholarship, and Commercial Diploma. In fact there is no form of work done by the largest Cillosjiate in the country that the school doos not do. One pupil, 2«. H. Anuing has won the Chancellor's scholar .ship (S^WI and the Mowat scholarship (S150) given by Queen's University to the pupil ranking highest in JIatheinatics. AH parents, pupils and teachers wishing a copy of this useful and beautiful pro- spectus whioh is a compendium of useful information not only about Meaford and its high school but about all the various courses of study and the latest educa- tional changes of vital interest this year to every teacher of continuation work, can have one by sending name and ad- dress to J.

You will no doubt wonder why I should be in- terested in your behalf, so will expltin, and yriu will then see that I am prompted by a purely selfish motive Here it is . â€" On previima occasions when you have laid aside the pencil, .scissors aud paste- pot and taken a jaunt up the lakes in Search of recreation and northern ozone, and later returned to the arduous duties devolving upon a country publisher, you hare inserted in the colums of The -Ad- vance a seriid story brim full nf interest- ing descriptions nf your experiences while abroad. The perusal of these chapters I have enjoyed to the utmntt, especially so your voyage up the Georgian B;iy some two or three years ago, so you see I am anticipating another treat in the coming ts-sues of your paper, and the more inci- dents you have to relate.the better I like it, for you have a way of describing things that is peculiarly interesting. Usually, after a fellow baa had a vaca tion, he is somewhat short on "phaBsce,"' so, taking it for granted that an odd dollar w->uld come handy to you in case of a possible emergency, I will en- close a Canada money order for that amount and kindly ask you to credit me with same on lubscriprion.
