What ai's the ratepayers of this town- t«h)p doing so much kicking sIkiuI; their Continuation School for ! They ought to be proud to think llivy are goiiii: to have 8uch a grand institute in their luwaship. They shoul j gra^p such a golden oppor- tuuiiy of h.tving education brought with- in reach of every boy and girl. But some people just want to grab all they can and give nothins in rvturn. They want education free. They want the gos- pel preached to them free. Ayounn man who went to a certain tawii to take a cour8« at business college thought he Would go among some friends and xet his board free. He founi out his mis- take and was soon turned under. lOth Line, Osprey. Very warm weather just now and crops are gi-«>widg line, although rain is needed again. Glad t(> i-eport that Mi-a. R. J.

Convention At Owen Sound As the train stopped at the several stations between Dundalk and Owen Sound on Tuesday, June 14, aud crowds of laughing, chattering women filed in, expressions might be heard such as " I never saw the train' on this line so crowded," " What is going on to-day !" " Where are all the women going I " etc. Tile initiated knew that the county con- vention of the Women's Institute was to be held in Owen Sound. A 'bus chart- ered for the oocHHion canvvyed the dele- gates from the station to the W.C.T.U. hall, where a hot dinner was awaiting them. The devotional exercises were conduct- ed by Mrs. (Rev.) J. L McCul:ougb. Mrs. J. MuQuaker, in a neatly worded addiess, gave a warm welcuine to the delairates. Mrs. J. B. Egan, .on behiilf of the delegates, thanked the ladies for the kind reception and warm bospitahty which had already been extended to them. The President iust ucted the delegates o take back to their blanches a full report of the meeting so that others might protit by it. Mis.' W. J. Logan of Meaford ?ave an excellent paper on ".Some benefits of Women's Institutes." She said the twentieth century was a century of urgau- izaiion. There are now ao many we can- not attend to all, but we should endeavor to lielung to those which would benefit us most. We train our sons fur doclon, ministers, lawyers, etc., but we expect our daughters to fill their place without any traininsi. We go in classes. There is apt to be a ^ocial l>arrier between the town and country. Even the churches divide, but in the lutlituie there is no barrier. We have talents to cultivate â€" have we a right to allow them t > leiuaiu idleV We learn to do by doiii it, and we all .should do our share of the program. The Presidcut, Mi-s. S. H. Breese, of Chalswoitb, conducted the question drawer. In reply to the ijuestion, "What prevents butter from t^athering .' " Mi.ss Ruse of Guelph said, in wmter we art* so luxious to sjive cream enough to chu'ii that the cream is not .sutti>;ieutly ri.;h. Succulent foods should I e given cows. In summer if butter won't gather draw ott° ibf. buttermilk and churn slowly. Add ice ciild water. I AS.NINO FINE.tPI'LES The f.>lluwiiig recipe w.is given fur canuinu pineapple : Peel pines and shred with a fork; add sugar, pound for pound ; let stand over night and bottle in sterilized cans. Wil) keep fur years. The :iueNtioii was asked, " Why docs separator cream take longer to churn chan that taken uff cans .' " Miss Rose replied that it was apt to be loo thin or possibly was not cooled rapidly enough- It should be put on ice, or if that were nut available, put in shallow pans on the cement floor of the cellar. The crcaiu IS thicker than milk and takes longer to cool. Mrs. W. Buchanan of Ravenna gave a paper on Women's Right*, or the SuH- rage (question, or the Power tt) Vote (I really do not know the exact title, but I do know it was prepared in Mr». Bu- chanan's original and inimitable way, aud appealed to the reason of every woman present). Mrs. Buchanan has strong objections to \mng placed in the same class with idiots, lunatics and minors. The election resulted in returning the old ofticer*, viz., Pres., Mrs.S.H.Breese; Vice Pres., Mrs. James Airth, Chats- worth ; Sec.-Treas., Mrs. W. H. Thurs- ton, Flesherton. MUs Laura Ruse gave a most inspiring address oo the Influence of Knviroumcnt. She is a lady of stiong personality, win- ning ways, aud an expressive face. Among other things, she said, wheu we furnish our home comfortably, beauti- fully and usefully^ we are paying a prem- ium to entice our children to stay at home but when we bedeck them with juwelery and make them into a fashion plate we aie paying a premium for them to go from home to show their finery. Miss Ru^H alsu .sitid, we clean our kitchen once a week, the school room where our children spend thirty hours a week is cleaned once a year ; it, to<^ should be cleaned once a week. The evening seasion was presided over by Mayor Harrison of Owen Suund. Mrs. (Dr ) Ea«ton of Aytou gave a psper on "Mother and child" from a kinder- gartner's standpoint. As Mrs. Kaston is An ex-kindergar'.en teacher she dealt with her subject in a practical m-iiiner. Miss Rose took as her evening subject "The head to plan, the band to do and the htMirt to will," which was listened bi with interest. Profossor Wade of O. A. C. spoke on Agricultural Education. We were sorry that there were so few gentlemen present from the country. Miss Stewart, Miss Herrtot, Miss Lily Roseborough, Mis* Be-sie Robertson and Miss Kathleen Rulxirlson delighted the audience with vocal and instrumental music. After a vote of thinks had been teuder- e>l chairman, speakers, all who bad assisted and all who had entertained, the meet ins; closed by singing the Nat'oiial Anthem.

Picnic a Success The annual picnic of Maxwell C.O.F. materialized last Wednesday afternoon in Wm. Scuti's grove. A nuoAly number gathered, in spite of Lhe warm weather. It was hot â€" so hot that every breath of air seemed to lie )>aked un both sides, but better that than cold or wet. The gate i-eceipts amounted to S41. The first event to be pulled olf was. a Iwiseliall match l)etween •Siiighampton and Flesherton, wh.-n the former weiv handed a nice, juicy lemon, with the score ag-ainst them to the extent of 19-8. The Flesherton players feel heartily ashamed of themselves for not lieing con- tent with a smaller score however they have pr<.>niised not to do it again. For the first four innings Singhamptvn imly secui-ed one run, and in the first three Flesherton annexed seventeen. Then a shift Wi*K niiule and Singhaiiiptm pulled up- a little. TliB pitching of Tom Brown for the latter I'uring the last four innings fooled the Flesherton Ijoys, while Kitch- en's pitching for the first four innings had the .Singhanipton Itatteis guessing Imdiy, and certainly put them down .lud out^gi^)ree fair ones from Singhaiiiptun cheereu their players on to- well, as near victory as they could get. One of these fair fans, in the excitement of au unusu- ally g<><«l play on the jKirt of "Pat," was so exasperated that she fell liatk on tlut ancient bit of repartee " Suiartie I .Sinar- tie ! " Dr. Ryckman was adrcidedly im- INUtial umpire, and made the fans happy with li s "square" decisions. N" I'uughne.ss, either of language »r play, was shown by e therteam, aud the losent tmik th«-ir medicine with the liesl of grace. The players were as follows: Singhaiiip- tun - Dr. .McFadden, .A. Tayhir. F. Mc- Lean, T. Brown, J. Taylor, - Sheard,H. Taylor, â€" Noble, L. 3fcKiniion ; Flesh- erton -H. Smith. H. Mitchell, R. Bel- lamy, G. McTavisli. .A. Sproat, (>. M. Patrick, W. Wilson, F. Smith and R. Kitchen. The score by innings is as fol- lows; Singhaiiiptun Flesherton 10 4 2 1 8 4 7 6 1 1 19 The footUill match lH.'twceii Maxwell and the Cullingwuod Rovei-s, all Scotch- men, was delayed until quite late owing to the ii<>i:-appeai'ance of the Keversham team, which had promised to play iigainst the Rovers. It seoiiis that the Fever- .shaiu player* liavc not fully recovered fiuin their eiicouiilcr witli Flesherton un > May 24th. and several uf the uieii were unable to play, and the rest were unable to play without them. However a Max- well team was gjithered U|) and aliout 7. 30 in the evening the .ippuiiig forces lined up for the fiay, with .sevti-al Flesh- H'ton, Feversham and Singhaiiiptun men filling up vacancies un the liiic-iip The game started ott'at a furiuiis paiis whicli was ir.aintaiiied until thu end. I'aiticii larly guod wa.s the work uf F. Fureman and Dr. Byckman iu the i'es|>ective itoiils, who while not over- worked, made .severd brilliant stup.s. The visitors were iJ<w- silily the lielter playeiK, yet they had not the neces-'ai-y weight, and .so were at a di.Siidvantage. As the play warmed up the superior weight uf the locals tuKl on the temper of the visitoi's slightly. For instance, when McLean jumped <jn one of the Sciitchmen's shouldrs alid iip.set him the "â-  under dog " wished to scrap, but evidently thought better of it aiftl the play c'Mitinued. The home team scored two g"al.s, the last one, ju.st before time was called, was .scored after a whirlwind rushâ€" a very pretty play ; while the vis- it<irs failed to locate the goal sbikes even once. The line-up was : Colliugwrnid â€" F. Furuian, J. Barr, J. Watt, J. Knight. G. Wilson, J. Hunter, J. Fulton, J. J. Hendei-son, .V. Hunter, W. Clark, W. Miirhes; Fevershamâ€" Dr. Kycknian, S.
