{Correspondence of Tea Posrl SOCIALâ€"«The lawn social held’ hereon Tuesday last week, was a a pronounced success. Although the evening was\ dark and gloomyrlooking, yet there was a great crowd. Among the many we noticed friends from Bethany, Lifford, J anetville, Yelverton, Hill Head and there were many whom the people of the Brick never saw before. After tea was served people gathered to the church, where an excellent programme was rendered, con- sisting of home and foreign talent; but what seemed to please the crowd most was the recitation by Edna Stewart and music by Messrs. Flemming. who were encored : three times; Mr. Flemming then gave the steamboat whistle, for which he re- ceived great applause. mannaâ€"0n Wednesday several of our boys, including Mr. 0. R. Stacey. W. H. Morrow, and R, McKindley late for Manitoba. The rates being low and the wages good enticed the boys to go and form an opinion of the prairie‘fi'ovinee. They will be very much missed around these parts. especially among the fair sex, with which they are alliavoritee. Next Tuesday several more of our boys are going. We wish them all a very pleasant trip- _ LINDSAY. LOCAL NEWS-LETTERS Pmoxnnâ€"Mr. Arch. J.
