This migration has had the effect of al- mo»'. liepUting the streams of this magnificent game fish and today wc should judge that seventy-five pei cent, of the former |>opulation of th.' streams have disappeared, mostly through the taking of small fish which i„,„p^.,^ble handicaps.

In fact we art told that members of the Ontario Angling Association will not keep trout under nine inches in length. Many claim that a fish caught in the giJls by the hook will not survive, but in an article on another page in this issue this argument is denied by the Dominion Department of Fisheries, which condu?ted a survey. It i-: hoped that there will be a large attendance of fishermen and women at a meetir;; to be held in riesherton on Friday, July 7th, where anglican problems will be discussed by eminent speakers.

So great is the pedestrian tratfic in the Scot- tish Highlands that it has been found accessary to hold a Trespass Confer- ence, between land proprietors and ramblers, to define rights of acces.' to some of the most beautiful of the romantic spots in the northern moun- tains. It is always belter to amic- ably settle these matters than to Tcsort to prosecutions; a little give :ind take and full respect for the rights and property, is all that is reijuirid, and thii applies to rural scenic resorts in Canada, as well as in the old land. > • • ::jw would it do to have the school promotion examinations conducted •- the cold weather of winteri rathci J.han in the sizzling hot days of mid- summer? It should not be dif'i- cult to get all the examinations <'vei before the Christmas and New Yea: tece-vs, and to begin the classes th; first of the year. Pupils going into the Universitie.t could easily have Iheir examinations in time to enter â- at the fall se.ision. They are a very small proportion of the school popu- lation, anyAvay. The big thing is to Uet the best results for the great ma.is of the youth of the land, while incidentally encouraging the teachers in their work. Too many critici of •our educational system are inclined to overlook the gain to both tcachcr.^t taught by the avoidance of friction. Presbyterian Church Opening At Priceville After nearly a year's strenuous work, the St. Andrew's Presbyterian church, Priceville, built of lumber and biick veneer is to be opened on July 2r.d, 1U33.

NA.V1K IT FLESHEKS LAKE OSPREY SUNDAY SCHOOLS MET AT FEVERSHAM Editor of The Advance: Dear Sir. â€" I have seen in this news- paper references to the near-drowning of two per.Hons at Flesherton, as re- cently reported in 'I'he Advance, and they spoke of the accident as having occurred "in the Flesherton pond.' Why is it not called a lake? Why not call it tlesher's Lake? When I lived in the village a smaller- body of water was called Pap's Lake. Hun- dreds of smaller stretches of water in Ontario are called lakes. If Bond Lake, for instance, were called Bond I'ond, who would bother to see it, and Heshcr's Lake is about of the size of Bond Lake, and larger than many others which are so called. â€"OLD BOY.

TORONTO LINE NORTH The ancient Shire of Angas. in Scotland, ha<< Ih-ch agitated by que« With representatives present from practically all the Sunday Schools Osprey Township held its ar.'nual con- vention in the Presbyterian church, Feversham, on the afternoon and ev- ening of June 20th. Rev. A. M. Shannon, pa.=;tor of the church, took charge of the devotional exercises and welcomed all to his church. A strong spirit of hope founded in faith and trust in Jesus Christ, marked the entire convention and augurs well for even greate; things itv the future. The President. Rev. M. F. (Oldham, presided through- out the afternoon and evening in a most happy and able manner. The convention was especially priv iloged in its two special .spoakeis- Uev. R. R. Elliott of Arkwrigiit, Pro iin:ial repre.'-:er.tative, who took foi his subject "Ye are the salt of the .arih," (Matt. 5:13), and Hcv. c'lmm- ncn of Duntroon who spoke on "Prob- lems of Leadership." The latt.n ompha.'^ized the necessity of a su-j cessful leader having four ciualitii.'^ knowledge, ability to .im'part kno.v- ledge, spirit of .-elf-sacruice and Lie eonsc.ration of oneself to the ta'sk. The Department group rcpori-, and- discussions, under the !aader.i!iip ol the individual department leadcr-- wcre very interesting. The Kouni Tabic conference, conducted by i^.>v. .'x. K. Elliott, urged the need of !-;ach crs' training cour.ses and the nejes.'<ity of the leaders being prepared for their work, in order to prove the iimsc successful. The nomination and inslallnl on of ofTicers tool; place at the even:n.?: ser vice, v.^ith the following being clec'i.d: President, Rev. A. M. Shannon; Vue Pres., Rev. A. G.

Shannon adrlressed tlio nicctini.'- for a short lime on the great work of tV.o Sunday School. Uev. Ma.PiU'i- >on moved a vote of thanks to Rev. M. F. Oldham, â- who so greatly helpc.l â- n the enthusiasm of Sunday V^:\v> work in the past year. The aftemoon session was fav ))â- <,) with a duet by Miss M. Mitche'l and Mis, Reg. Bailey of Maple Valley .uid a solo by Mrs. Geo. Lawlor >>r Max- well. In the evening two male iiua'-- teltes from Fe^'ersham pleased the audience with their numbers. The Indies of the Feversham clnir- â- hes served a ve.ry appetizing supper Next y-jar's meeting will be hvd in the Anglican church. Maxwell [We will certainly see about this thing and try to discover a means whereby the name be switched with- out too much of a wrench to anybody's sensibilities. But first we will have to consult the present owner. Reeve McAuIey, to see if he is agreeable. It is just possible he may want the old cognomen, "Flesher's Pond," changed to MeCauley's Pond. And a recent owner, Mr. Henry, may have something to say about it. And there were other owners. For ourselves wc rather like the above suggestion. Flesherton lake sounds euphonious, even more so than Munshaw's Lake, which lies in the suburbs. Of course a lake is a natural body of fresh water and a pond is artificial. But one can, we presume, change the definition in this case if the past and present owners can be made to see the matter in a proper light. We thank "Old Boy" for his suggestion. In the meantime â- we 'uns have the matter under our most serious con- sideration. â€" Ed. Advance.] SUNDAY SCHOOL CONVENTION Likely To Have Mountain Prior to the game here two weeks ago between Flusherton and Dundalk i a protest was lodged against Dundalk j playing Dr. Harold .Mountain, the claim being made that he was closer, to Flesherton. He had been placed j on the Flesheron list of players, and also by Dundalk, but as a represen- ative from Flesherton was not pre- t ent at the League meeting tc sub«tan tiate their claim, the player in ques- tion was awarded to Dundalk, Icnving it to Flesherton to bring in evidence that he was closer to this place. On Monday evenir.g three men from town went over the ground and found that the distance from Flesherton to Dro- inore. Dr. Mountain's residence, was 15.2 miles by speedometer register while from there to DundalX, taking the shortest route, the distance w&s 15.9 miles. It is therefore seen that he was nearly three-suarters of a mile closer to Flesherton, making him eViS ible to play for this team. It is to be expected that Flesherton will use the services of Dr. Mountain at Dun- dalk on Thursday, as he has no pref- erence as to where he plays. EUTCHABTâ€" STUART Temperance Lecturer: "Here's an 1 argument drawn from nature. If Ij lead a donkey up to a pail of â- water and a pail of beer, -which will he drink?" Unconverted: "The water." Lecturer: "Right â€" why?" Unconverted: ' 'Because he's an ass." The annual convention of Arte- mfrsia, Markdale and Flesherton Sun- day schools, which was held in Van- deleur church on Tuesday of last week, June 20th, was well attended and exceptionally interesting.

Elliott of Tar.t. Rev. Elliott also conducted the Round Table Conference. Rev. H. S. Warren led the dtvotioji- al exerci.-.es and song service in tiie evening session.
