Who will be the first to do some plowing before the inoDth of I'anuary is tjone i Our skating rink is very much subject to the moods of the suasou, mild weather not agreeing with it.

The Work of getting a supply of sravel and sand for enlarging the reservoir for the village water works cannot be pushed ahead, as was desired, until the hillsides are again well covered with snow.

Squire Stuart and otheis have been endeavoring to have a permanent road made from the sideroad at Conn' Landing, at the end of the Valley Koad, north lo Julian's siderond. Such a road, if opened and made part of the County Road system, would avoia soino very steep hills on the present road to Ucathcote and Thornbury. Much regret has been ofTsred by temperate and thoughtful people at the return of the dancs to cur neighborhood. Parents whose concern was that their boys might be called on for military duty, are new faced with the blighting iuHuencc of the dance. It is severely criticised for interfering seriously with education.il, Sunday School and Church work, not only in our own community but else- where, for complaints from an adjoining township place considerable responsibil- ity upon us. It is our duty to stand squarely against it now as our best citizens have done iu the past. We aro glad to know that our best people today ai'U against it a.s before, and would call on all to use their inlluenue and example against the dance and in favor of a puier type of morals such as people are craving for since peace has returned.
