Election News As elsewhere, big news, of the wcek is the forthcomlng election. Having been prevaîl- ed upon (by a slight twist of the arm) to offer our services in the interest in particular ol that north and west part of Manvers which ini past years lias had no elected representa- tive in Çouncil and feel that they have suffered sornewhat from this lack. A more coniprehensive Eist of candidates -*iil no doubt be supplled by other scribes so will omit same as needless re- petition. Sufficient is it to sày that following the nomination of nine candidates, some for as many as three positions in council, the group at the invi- tation of popular Ex-Reevi Cavano, as chairman, wende< their way sheep fashion to the front to take seats on the ros- trum. Here present Councillors and nominëes for vacancies re- cited their own obituary, sang their own swan song or mere- ly presented a prelude to their own victory celebration de- pending somewhat on thenr powers of persuasion and the decrees of fate. The seriousness and gravity of the situation is alleviated considerably when viewed froin the rear when a note o! levity is introduced by each candidate as in a higli state of nervousness lie cavorts, contor- tions, executes a medieval dance ritual as clattering knees threaten to get out of control and the quaking voice becomes unpredictable, c o mn i n g out either in girlish squeaks or gut- oeral basso profundo. f e o 1~ -i s B As our own turn approached, nm ille aur ltl eiain occe 1 on the wings of a dove leaving us to blunder out a few non- committals which scarcely nation for the office of could be calculated to \vi:î friends or influence people.
