The local hydro-electric commission who have been for some time nego- tiating with the provincial hydro com- mission for a reduction in the village rate for street lights, which was fixed last spring at fourteen dollars per light, have been successful in securing a reduction.

Eustace was working on the twentieth floor of the Transportation Building at Federal and Harriston streets, then under process of construction, when he slipped and fell into the elevator shaft, Murray, on the floor below threw hisarm about anupright, leaned out and seized the falling man, break- ing the fall, and dropping him unin- jured, on the floor directly below, Murray himself was thrown to the floor and narrowly averted falling down the shaft. While the new 'Temperance Act worked hardships on some of the "regular" drinkers it has been a grand ithing for the indian-listers, but 'Chairman Flavelle stated recently that under the new law the indian list was abolished.

It was stated that an effort would like- ly be made at the next session of the Legislature to have the indian list restored, as it was pointed out by Mr. Flavelle that the inspectors were the best judges of who should not be al- lowed to have whiskey in their pos- session.

It will keep sweet for several days, and can be used in tea, coffee or cocoa. To obtain the sap a small branch is broken, or a slight cut is made in the bark. The sap runs freely, and sev- eral quarts of milk can be obtained from one tree. children in many other towns are holding gum showers on their birth- days, and are handing the gum re- ceived to the Patriotic Society to be forwarded to the local soldier boys in France.

"Billy' Sunday is to invade New York next April, and an idea of the magnitude of the projected campaign, which will extend over three months, will be gleaned from the'fact that the committee in charge has been advised that from 15,000 to 20,000 church workers will be needed, and 12,000 singers, along with 4,000 ushers and 600 secretaries. Plans are also being made for holding 5,000 prayer meet- ings at hundreds of private homes during the winter months. Norman Bruce Wallis, an eighteen- year-old American from New Orleans. enlisted as a private in the British army some months ago. Three at- tempts have been made by his family, through 'the American embassy, to get him back to the United States, but the lad is still in the army-- fighting -in France with a Scottish regiment. When he was released from his regiment the first time and ar- rangements made for his passage to America, he "missed the connection" by enlisting in another regiment. All the formalties of his release were gone through and an official of his embassy personally installed him in the home of some friends, to await the the sailing of the boat in which his passage had been taken. Wallis, how- ever, returned to his old regiment, where, through a misunderstanding, he was arrested for desertion. Pun- ishment was averted by' official ex- planations, and to-day Wallis--now known as Norman Macgregor Bruce-- is with the unit in France. 'rhe constant rise in the price of leather and the consequent higher price of shoes may bring about a rev- olution in the habits of the poorer classes in London and compel them to wear the clogs which are so familiar in the Midlands. Charity workers amoug thé London poor have always deplored the refusal of London Work- ing people to have anything to d- with clogs. In many cases where clogs have been distributed free to children in East End schools, the pre- judice in the homes has proven too strong and in a few days-the littl. ones haye been forced to face the cold weather barefoot. There are one or two clog shops in London, but the demand has always been very small, though large quantities are made One factory in South London is now working on a big contract for the supply of clogs to France, where they are generally worn in all agricultural war has resulted in a clog famine, be- cause hundreds of thousands of pairs were formerly imported from Germany. er's Advocate. : We notice by our exchanges thatjhaye rushed to the eggs, | Stratford, was admitted to No, 1Gen-j} there and exported to the colonies. | and industrial districts, and where the Cash paid for Eggs at the Pearl Creamery.

Even if these passengers were not American citizens any of our old-time sea worthies would rescue in the cause of humanity Those of us who were living forty odd years ago can- not have forgotten the case of the 'Virginius,' which sailed for Cuba with some 230 soldiers of fortune. They were bound for that island to help |the Cuban insurgents in one of their frequent uprisings against Spain. The vessel, with all on board was cap- tured. A rough and ready court mar- |tial was held, and about 230 were sen- tenced to be shot, Small squads of |hald-a-dozen at a time were taken out fand after the Spanish fashion, stood up against the wall, there to be blind- {folded and shot dewn by soldiers, A | British warship lay in the harbor of |Havana under command of Capt.

He no- jtified the Governor that the shooting ;must stop at once; that if any more | were ibard the city. The butchery stopped. ;Thus this British captain saved the jlives of nearly 200 Americans, sev- feral squads of the prisoners having ;been put to death before word reach- jed the British vessel. Had captain | Williams been in charge of one of our jnaval vessels near the 'Stephano,' or of a British vessel, none of the passen ;gers aboard would have been com- | pelled to take to the small boats, {whether they were British subjects or {American citizens. When we think of {the act of Capt. Williams and the act |of our own commanding officer in the ;case alluded to, we begin to under- jstand why the British flag and the |\British nation are respected all over |the world and loved by subjects of Great Britain.

Both boys have been trans- ferred to the 153rd battalion, but we are living in hopes that at an early date they will rejoin the unit on the other side of the Atlantic. The battalion will quite likely be drafted as reinforcements after a few months of training across the pond, but there is a possibility that the Milverton con- tingent may move out together as the most of the men have trained in one platoon since signing the blue papers. According to present schedule we are booked to leave Camp Borden to- morrow. Two special trains will carry the battalion eastward, but des- tination is unknown. The railway company provides eatables for the men while on the journey, which will prebably last three or four days. We are looking forward to a tiresome but nevertheless interesting trip.

While preparations were being made at the base hospital for removal to Toronto, they beat a hasty retreat through the bushes and will leave with the battalion. Both are feeling fine and were not desirous of being transferred to a unit which will probably winter in Canada. Their departure from the hospital was not just according to King's regulations, but the officers will overlook considerations of that kind when they realize a man has got the backbone not to dodge a journey closer to the firing line.

This - fea- ture of the Sunday meetings is never overlooked. He is billed for New 'York some time this winter, and al- ready 5,000 prayer meetings are plan- ned in anticipation of his visit. There is never a detail overlooked, and noth- ing is left to chance. It seems} that Sunday and his workers expect to get results and bend everything to securing ,\them in the very largest measure. If the average church adopted these same tactics with an equal amount of enthusiasm, devotion and zeal, would it be too much for them to expect results? Surely not. As a matter of fact, this element is lacking toa very large degree in many of the churches at the present time. There is too much taken for granted, Members take it for granted that some lone will stop the stranger in the church before he gets to the door, and give him a welcome; they take it those who are sick; they take itt for granted that some one will see that those in want are looked after, If the Billy Sunday meetings were run on that basis where would they end? We don't know, but it is a good safe iguess that they would never accom- plish the results that they go under 'perfectly organized conditions. -- > its ' 7 | and its your's to save or sell! 'Smith.
