The concert and Christmas tree at school .\o. 4, South Canonto, on the eveninggaf the 2'.'nd inst, was :1 great success. Rev. Mr. "Rowland filled the chair in a very {Lille manner. Much credit is due Miss Coulter, the teacher, for the excellent : programme prepared, in which she took several important parts. some of the dialogues kept the audience in uproar- ` ious laughter. Music was furnished by Mr. Hepburn, Levant, at the orga.n,a.s- sisted by tl1e'Burnham band. Mr. Hep- burn also sang some very choice songs ' which were heartily encored. Supper was served after which Santa Claus pro- ceetled` to unload the tree of its [weight ' of good things. The chairman asked ' for three cheers for Miss Coulter which were heartily givemalso a. vote of thanks for Mr. Hepburn. The na~ lionnl anthem was sung and the crowd dispersed feeling well pleased with the entertainment. Miss Coulter leaves to- morrow for her home at Mountain Grove, and we believe carries with her the best wishes of all. S. B. Jacob has engaged with T. Lee, Lnvant, as black- smith. \\'. Allan has gone to Flower Station.

Oi. tne tumous 1.000011 county council. Last spring it was arrangedthat one of the features of the great jubilee cele- bration at Londoh should be the presen- tation of `an address from the county council, and it was further arranged that all the members of `the council should attend and be presented to her majesty. The members were informed by the court offigals that they would be required to appear in court dress, and that each member would have to wear a sword dangling by his side. A court dress is not easily described, bu it is something that few Canadians ex- cept. those who attend arnivals and fancy dress balls have ever seen, and it does not become a plain citizen. Now, Joseph Allen Baker is not only a Cana- dian antfas such a believer in 'democra- * tic simplicity, but he is a member of the society of Friends. and the_plain liv- ing, plain dress 'and plain speech of his ancestors have not been forgotten by him`. When, `therefore, Mn Baker was informed that he would have to wear a court dress and a sword, he respectful- ly, but firmly declined 40 do so. llis ohjtxwtion was made known at court; messages flashed backward and forward between London and Windsor. and Mr. Baker was at length informed that John Bright had been permitted t - ap- pear at court wit.hout a sword nd that he also might appear 'without wearing that weapon. The court offi- cials, nowevcr. further informed Mr. Baker that John llriight had worn a court dress, and that. he also would be required to. But times have changed, even since John Bright's time-perhaps Mr. Baker's Canadian blood made him more rcsolute-howcver that may have hccn, he did not abate one jot in the stand he had taken, but. informed the officin.Ls that his ct`)n'science would not permit him to dress in the style pre- scribed, and that if he were not permit- ted to appear in plain civilian`s dress, he mustremain away. The time before the day fixed for the presentation was now growing short, and messages pass- cd between London and Windsor more rapidly than ever. It seemed as if the existence of the British constitution was at stake. At. last a. message came stating that the date for the presenta- tion was so near that there would not be time for Mr. Baker to have a court dress made, and, therefore, he would not. be required to wear one. It is need- less to say that this did not satisfy Mr. Baker. llc. did not wish to go to court and be admitted, on the false pretence, as it Mere, that he had not the necessary time to procure a court dress, when the officials and everyone else know that he had received ample notice. So the deadlock still continued. It is not known whether a cabinet council was called to discuss the situation and de- cide whether the British constitution could bear the wrench it would receive if Mr. Baker were allowed to attend in plain clothes. The London papers, however, took up the subject "and dc- huted it with great earnestness, and the Chronicle, .1 leading liberal paper, strongly supported Mr. Bnkcr in the stund he had taken. The labor mem- bers of the county coucil were with him to a man. As the day for the presenta- tion drew near the interest increased. At length, just before the great day arrived, came a message from Windsor that the queen had granted permission that not only Mr. Baker, but all the members of`the county council who so desired might appear in civilian's clothes. \\'hen the day came it was seen that nearly half the members had availed themselves of the out-en's per- mission. In thcir plain clothes they I . . . . ..l 1.. ll... Iulunnrn uukn 11. !
