PAGE _ TEN Sir,â€"It isIunfox-tunate that most of the people who use the Omemee road live in Lindsay, One-nee ‘and other municipalities, and have! no right to vote as to whether the road shall be kept open or closed. It seems!hard to make peopld drive three and a half milee° over'an infer- ior road instead of two and'a. half over a. good one, andgstill go over two dangerousI railway crossings. Many persons would not mind an ex; tra. mile to avoid two crossings which might be avoided if the council would open a few rods of new road but this, :it; appears, they have no inten- tion of doing. What Broadway is to New York the Omanee Road is to the County of Victoria‘smd it would be as semible to close one as‘ the other. Editor Watchman-Warden on. Farmers may be pretty certain that any scheme that has a fair chance of success is not being peddled over the country but is taken upy'by business or financial men in the vic- inity. .Respectfully yours, Sinâ€"I had to-day presented for discount a block of notes; eight of wln'ch' were by out farmers for stock in a company in a neighboring town. I have no wish to discuss themerits of the proposed scheme. but I do wish to advise our farmers that in sub- scribing for stock and giving their notes'ior sameltvhat they will have these notesto payâ€"no matter What promises may have been made or giv- en by the party taking the notes. In fact when these notes pass into the hands of a third party they will hav‘ to be paid no matter whether the company establishes its business or not. Let me suggest to our farmers to never subscribe for any 'stock un- til they consult some person of' bus- iness experience in whom they have confidence. A little of this caution1 would have saved the farmers of thisi county many thousand dollars in the 1 late Packenham Pork Packing Co. fiasco,'as it was a scheme that I think most any business man would have known was not a practical one. Investments in industrial schemes are to a very large extent unprofitable to the original subscribers and more es- pecially when they are flotations made by parties.who know nothing whatever of the practical working of the business proposed to be carried Editor Watchman-“larder ago. As a rule““we don’t use or referto mammals in addressing the public; but the above remark and similar expressions are made so often in connec- tion with Scott’s Emulsion that they are worthy of occasional not e. From infancy to old age Scott's Emulsion offers a reliable means of remedying im- proper and weak develop-. ment, restoring lost flesh‘ and vitality, and repairing waste.

The minutes of the last meeting were read and approved. The secretary» preâ€" sented the following report for 1905: Question No. 4. I never got-up" a petition for a wire fence on Wilson’s avenue or any other avenue, I only wish he had built one to Paul street and got 35 cents a. rod for it. Now. Little Jack, I would advise you to go and learn the eleventh commandment which is. “Mind yOur own business.” and in future let Wil- son .wash his own linen. Thanking you, Mr. Editor, Yours truly,‘ i A. TRAIN". Question No. 3. I threw down the old rail fence after I had obtained permissiom from the owner (as‘ I thought) and pathmaster not for my own convenience only,_ bpt for Mrs. McIntyre, Mr. Black and Mr. Hall- to prevent the street filling with snow and blocking trafl‘ic. Mr. .Wilson said he intended to«build a new wire fence in the spring, which he did. ’ Dom any sane mu! expect: thefoonh- oil to pay a. bonus for wire tweed around Wilson’s gut-don; that doe. not border on‘ the ”wheat all ? As to the fence on the east side ”of the avenue it has nothing“lo do with ‘the question as it was built one your iafter the .bonus was paid. ‘ Now for llr. Hagee's questions : Ques. 1. I never had anything to do with the cemetery lots directly or indirectly. You are evidently thra'w- ing mud at my father who when: he resigned the treasureship of the can- etery owed the township in balance for lots sold.. but I wantjtyou to. know. that he paid every dollar of it back when he repaired and built. new bridâ€" ges for the township. ‘ You may rue this false: slur before long and wish you had not made a cat’s paw of yourself to please Wilâ€" son.

I hope you will cherish that thought dur- ing all your meetings and during all your days. Ideas are the things most worth watching for in life, and especially ideas based in knowledge.

I think that agent does much for the young people and for the old. people as well. One of my American friends said to me once! "I! yau want to make a: woman think a. lot of you, fill her full of love for herself, and what runs over is youg's.” I am glad you appreciate: what FPresident Creelman was able to do for you in organizing women's insti- tutes. I think of all the agencies in this province that are for the up- lifting of the rural population the farmer's institute has stood out pre- eminent in its service of the people. It has been a. place .where farmers have helped each other ;- where farm- ers have learned .trom each other; and from which they have gone home not merely to do better work, 'but to work witha larger conceptiou of the real dignity of the work on the farm. It is my belief that the W0- men‘s institute will do equally good work for the women of the province. I am glad to know this is the recâ€" ord of the institute until this time. I have watched;the work \of the in-‘ stitutes, and am Quite sure that they have still greater powers of service than have yet been revealed. The department of agriculture of Ontario has issued a bulletin, con- taining. a full‘report of the third an- nual convention of the women’s in- stitutes of that province. One of the special features of this convention was the opening of the Macdonald iIn‘ stitute, Winnipeg. Mu‘ch of the time of two sessions was very profitably taken up in addresses pn the work proposed to be done in that institute. Former Superintendent Creelman, in welcoming the delegates said. “These magnificent buildings which have been erected, are for your children, and you should undertake to be sponsors for them. - By that I z'nean that so long as we have room in the Mac- donald hall we shall admit all good girls to the institute.’ Prof. Jas. W. Robertson, who represented Sen- ator Ma‘cdonald at the opening of the institute, addressed the delegates as follows : l What Macdonald Hall will do for House- wives of the Future 3 narcissis.

WOMEN'S INSTITUTES 0F ONTARIO H. Wflson R. CHAMBERS, Pres. Someone has asked me to explain a. little further what the art depart- ment means. I may say that this work deals with color composition. and line of clothing in relation to the individual, and the stud) of color from its source. We work from no.- ture at every what, and learn to create original designs. ;The work as it now Stands is purely technical. but as the school progresses we hope to greatly enlarge the art department.

(I would like to call your attention to one of the show cases we have downstairs. which shows renovated materialyâ€"flowers. Velvets, silks, etc., and all the work of the first grade.) Next we take up the simple'folds, facings and bow making. The students then trim hats in practice material, which are crit- icized by the entire class. Buckram shapes are then drafted and made. Canton flannel has the elements of silk, and we use it for covering these hats, but cut it as carefully as though it were expensive material. At‘ present the students are very anxious to get their hats of good material. whiCh they are making for‘ themselves. completed before; going{ home for Christmas. Each season brings a different' line of work spring, summer. autumn and winter. Some people have thought we were going to put the milliners out of business !

They‘learn how to cut a. skirt from the pattern they have drafted. and also haw to deviate according to_pre- veiling style, so that one can be be made“ as well in five years time as The dresgmaking department is more advanced. The student has to be eligible for this class by hav- ing taken the‘ preceding courses in plain sewing and underwear, or their equivalent before coming to school. She begins at the beginning to take measurements. ( forgot to say the}. one of the greatest educational fea- tures this work affords is the devel- opment of patience!) The girls I! the work is satisfactory in the early grades the students are pro- moted to the machine class, where underwear is made. They buy their own patterns, and learn to cut. fit, and make their own under clothing. After the‘underwear is made the stu- dents take up the making 0! shirt- waists, using bought patterns. There is given in this work an opportunity for the student to think of the waist and its trimming in relation to her- self. “Sewing develops co-operation be tween the eye, the brain and the hand. Girls know what they want but they cannot make them. ‘ They have not an accurate enough eye to cht things straight. nor "yet to stitch straight, two essential things in sew- ing. That is a strong educational plea for sewing in our public schools â€"a.ccuracy‘ at eVery point." girls have to do the marketing; see that the food gets here in time (which is sometimes difficult): see that it is served 'in time: see that the dishes are washed and the whole place kept in order. They have to be prepared for guests on short no- tice; and finally at the end of the week, towrender a correct account of the money received and expended. and have their books audited." thr‘ Miss Grace Roberts in speaking of the sewing classes said : «can better shape alter Christina.
