¥ DISTRICT NEWS CAIRNBROGIE KICKS. Cairnbrogie ball club has Leen Lav- ing plenty of actien behind the screen | The club was organized by farmers' sons of the district for their own en- joyment. They went to considerble expense to secure equipment. But this season, in the fever of competition with Wabigoon, the n.an- agement have attempted to strengthen the team by inroducing Iiryvden play- ers and benching the original mem- bers. ; The Cairnbrogie fellows felt indig- nant, and called a meeting of ther club to discuss whether or not they shall be a home-brew, local - talent team or not. The resuit was a disa- greement. The Dryden meravers re- signed over the affair. However, the faithful remnant will. continue to play the game. They admt that they will be weakened, but say that they want the fun of the game rather than victory won by outside help. They are encouraged in their stand by the as- surance that Wabigoon is ready to meet them halfway in the matter of sticking to native sons. DYMENT Mr William Keurvorst has obtained a temporary position as timekeeper on the C.P.R. and left for Kenora last week. Friends of Mr and Mrs Hogan spent a very pleasant evening on the Hogan farm last Saturday in celebrating Mrs Hogan's birthday, Many happy re- turns! This summer has seen quite a lot of new farm machinery brought into the settlement, a sure sign that this town ship is developing rapidly. Dyment will in the near future, lose one of its most esteemed families as Mr and Mrs Martin have decided to leave for California where they intend to spend the coming years. During the comparatively short time they have been living here, they have made everybody their friends, and it is with genuine reget we see them leave us. GLENGOLAND _JOTTINGS. Miss Jamieson and Miss Cameron are the guests of Mr and Mrs R. M'Gregor. Mr B. Darrow is going west for the harvest. Mr C. Snider's barn is completed. Who says he a'int a hustler? Mrs T. Cormack's sister, from Old Ontario, is visiting her after ten years separation. Mr B. Brignall has a new addition to his house. (A baby girl.) Mr A. McPhail has finished haying, It could not have rained around that corner. J ~ You will . this Moeser has also a new home of his: CAUSTIC To start with, we had a little rain every day and if it keeps on like the past week rubbers will go up again. Subscriptions for the hospital are coming in slowly, but we hope to have $100.00 some day. You know times are hard; of course I know -- never any better or worse. But our people must have confidence in the future, There is a building craze on just now. Mr Titz's new home is nearly complete and he says he has a dandy cellar in it. Mr Euler, after he got his hay in last week, started building : a new home. Mr G. Irmscher also put up a great barn. Well they know district is alright. Mr Fred own now, and we trust he will make the best out of it. Mrs Wartig is just putting on the roof of her new home, a good thing in these rainy days. Say, we all went to the Dryden pic- nic. there was no kick in it, We are very very glad Mr Beve- ridge and Mr Pitt will vote-for Labor the next time. Oh, joy's a business proposition you see. And a mighty poor one too for the homesteader !!! But still we have some thing to be thankful for. We got a very old box car installed next to the other one we had as a station. And I think this is the best advertisement we ever had, not for our community only, but for our district also, Of course you will agree that a old box car will make a beautiful sign; and, think of it, we have two now! The Waldhof board of trade is thinking about®another great picnic-- something extra, you know. Perhaps I should not tell you people, but you will hear about it anyhow some day. So better be prepared for he occasion. Sure our telephone system is work- ing, and as soon as everybody is con- nected we will have some benefit out of it. We had some roads built, and those who get them are smiling; but the other fellow who did not is swearing. Oh welll Some people will swear anyhow; but I hear Peter Heenan is making notes. He has to order his notebooks by the dozen to get all the roads and bridges and ditches ete. ete, on paper. Besides he is driving again and very fast to. Now I meet our M.P. Mr Dougald Kennedy. People say so soon you get in parliament you are lost, but I thought he was just as ever, not lost at all. Perhaps it would do him good to get a little of the driving spirit of our member at the provincial house, Perhaps he will get that by and by. Friday an Indian woman and child were struck by a freight engine a short distance west of Hawk Lake. The child was badly injured, the wo- man less seriously.

Sir Thos, White once called him "a great na- tional asset." : Mr. Ham added that he was glad that Sir Thomas had fortunately not forgotten the "et," Even in the hospital undergoing an opera- tion for appendicitis, Mr. Ham sus- tained his reputation, as his best story, probably, will show. When he lost consciousness, he says, his last thought was "This is eternity." "When I recovered from the ef- fects of the opiate, I found myself in a darkened room, and wondered where I was and what it was all about. The kindly-featured nurse quickly discovered that my con- sciousness had returned, and came to my bedside, and then I remem- bered everything. 'But why this dark room? It was early morning when they operated on me, but now it can't be night. ' "'No, it isn't, she seriously res- ponded, 'but we were afraid of the shock you might get.' " 'Why, what shock?' "'Well, there was a big fire just across the street, and we wera afraid if you awoke, and saw the flames, you might think that the operation hadn't been successful.' "That shows you what it is te have a reputation." ; The Commercial Cable Company and C.P.R. Telegraphs have taken over the Postal Telegraph Service in Newfoundland and are now hand- ling all business over the Newfound- fod government's cables. and land ines. Whatever the volume of the coal and grain business this fall, the Canadian Pacific would be in posi- tion to handle it. This was the assurance given by Grant Hall, vice- president of the company, at Cal- gary. Mr. Hall is' on his annual tour. He is in a most hopeful frame of mind regarding the crop situation in the three western pro- vineces. Present prospects, he stated, were that there would be a | | fair average crop. "No, do not anticipate any complications arising on this side owing to the strike.among United States shopmen," he remarked in reply to a question. "There is ne occasion to think this at the pres- ent time," he added. Assistant Superintendent W. M.
