Exhibition Hockey Match--Strat- ford vs. Milverton on Thursday night, Jan. 24th. Reeve W. H. Grosch is attending 'the January sessions of the Perth County Council at Stratford. Mr. Robert Armstrong, reeve of Ellice; was elected Warden of Perth County at the opening session held on Tuesday. The Port Dover line was opened on Monday, after being closed for ten days following the storm. The God- erich line of the G.T.R. from Strat- ford was cleared on Saturday. The Cuban consul at St. John, Caesar Barranes, says the sugar pro- blem in Canada will be solved before the end of;the month, and the new Cuban crop, 3,600,000 tons, will. be shipped to Canada, the United States, and the Allies. Several south German newspapers which have been received in Switzer- land, raise a ery of alarm over the in- crease of bigamy in Germany during 1917. They say many acquittals and lenient sentences imposed indicate that the authorities are condoning the offence. | Mr. W. B. Kines, who has purchas- ed a hundred acre farm in the Town- ship of Townsend, near Waterford, for $12,500, is preparing to leave early in March. Mr. Kines will be much missed from here as he was con- sidered one of Mornington's most progressive farmers. _ Messrs. George Roe and John Day- idson, of Mornington, and Rev. C. N. Paddon and Messrs. A. C. Clemens and Malcolm MacBeth, of Milverton, were at Stratford on Wednesday, as part of a deputation from the county of Perth to wait upon the County Council to urge upon that body the necessity of doing something for the Patriotic Fund. The war is giving public ownership a great boost. We are having it de- monstrated that railways can be oper- ated more economically by Govern- ment than by private management. We have learned that itis possible to fix prices of the necessaries of life, and in many other ways old traditions are being destroyed. If the people can be served better in this way in war times, why not in peace? A Stratford subscriber writes:-- "The storm was not without its com- pensations. I notice by the columns of The Sun last week that the lack of local news put you on your metal in finding suitable material to fill space and you certainly succeeded. Your selections were, indeed, fine. That poem on "Cuddle Doon" and your ar- ticle on Jerusalem were worth a year's subscription. Good luck to the storm!" Z A box was shipped by the Milver- ton Women's Institute, valued at $148.50, to the Red Cross Society at London. They received the following letter in response: "On behalf of the London branch of the Red Cross we wish to thank you and your co-work- ers for your generous donation of 12 shirts and 79 pairs of socks. The shirts are very good, indeed. The socks are excellent, nice wool and well tied up." There seems to have arisen some misunderstanding as to the composi- tion of the local Hydro Commission. Myr. Clemens is chairman of the board having been elected a member a year ago for a period of two years; Mr. J. C. Grosch's term had _ expired last year and he was re-elected by ac- clamation at the recent election for a further term of two years. He acts as secretary of the board. The reeve is the third member by virtue of his office. Exorbitant prices asked by farm- ers on the Guelph market for wood were looked into on Saturday by Fuel Controller Foster and he issued a warning to those bringing in wood for sale that it must be sold on a cord basis and: that if this was not done the wood would be confiscated. Sev- eral loads were offered for sale, but the prices asked were almost prohibi- tive. A load of dried tamarac cost $9, while $10. was asked for a load of log maple poles. Another man had a load of cut white maple containing a half cord for which he asked $12. The honor of the presidency of the Western Dairymen's Association this year falls to a Perth man in the per- son of Mr. James Donaldson, of Elma. Mr. Donaldson will make a capable head, as he is a ready speaker and a man of good executive ability and has long been indentified with the work of the Association. We extend our congratulations to Mr. Donaldson on his election to this post, as the West- ern Dairymen's Association is, un- doubtedly, the most important Assoc- iation indentified with agriculture that we have in the province of On- tario. Here are two curiosities in recent matrimonial advertisements: First-- James O. Baldwin, husky lad, wants to marry very bad. He is fifty, six feet, strong; lived at Caldwell, Jer- sey long. Suitable wife not to be had, so he sends out this little ad. Second--Wanted--Wife to clean and scrub, mend my socks and cook my grub. Must be handsome, bright and gay, thirty-two if she's a day. Wid- ow woman not deterred. She must lhave some cash to spend, and intel- |lect with learning blend. She must 'be a music lover; fond of me and nary other. That is what my wife must be--lum-te-dum-te-deedle-dee. Now girls, don't all speak at. once. The terrific storm was responsible for at least one death in the vicinity Len Schell, who had been cutting wood and was occupying a shack near the town of Southamp- ton, endeavored to get home on Sat- urday, but did not succeed. It appears that he had been in the habit of stay- ing away from his home in Port EI- gin for about a week at a time, liv- ing where he was cutting wood in a small shanty. He was accompanied by another man who was not at work last week, and this left Mr. Schell alone. During the blizzard, Mr. Schell undertook to reach his home, a distance of three miles. He started down the track and succeeded in get- ting to within thirty rods of the G.T. {R. station, when he became exhaust- Jed and was frozen to death. He 'was found on Wednesday afternoon by a man walking out the track. MILVERTON, ONT., THURSDAY, JAN. 24, 1918. Butter 40c lb.--Engeland's. Eggs 60c dozen.--Engeland's.

Argentina's friendship has been proved worth while by her sale of 2,500,000 tons of wheat to the Allies on credit, even if she did nothing more. Members of the W.C.T.U. in Mani- toba are indignant over a light sen- tence meted out to an offender again- st a young girl, and will start a move- ment to impeach the judge. Mr. and Mrs. John Phair, Millbank announce the engagement of their daughter, Mary Olive Ruby, to Mr. Alvin 8. Dunbar, of Newton. The marriage to take place quietly in January. Do not send more than one copy of a newspaper in a wrapper to the Un- ited Kingdom. The British govern- ment has forbidden the carrying by the mails of newspapers which are not wrapped separately. Chicago dealers declare that it will be only a matter of time until horse meat will be commonly sold in butch- er shops in competition with pork, beef and lamb. Thus will the whole barnyard be united in life and not divided in death. The 1918 markers are smaller than those of last year, but are considered of a much neater type. They are about 1 inch smaller each way. The figures are blue this year on a white background. Last year they were black on a white ground. The government is to take over the packing houses March 1. This is pro- bably one of the things Frank Carvell Minister of Public Works had in mind when he said that the people should be prepared for the announcement of some radical measure every two weeks. But just now the thing most people think about is coal. Prohibition has not only had its direct effect on the sale of liquor, but it is indirectly playing havoc with the sale of cigars. A number of ci- gar firms have gone out of business owing to a serious drop in their sales. When you learn that last year Can- adians smoked 71,082,325,710 cigar- ettes, you may think that the sale of this article could stand a sudden drop too. Already ten tons of coal have been taken from the high school and if oc- easion demand it, the mayor states that private coal bins will be investi- gated next and where there is more than required for actual comfort, a portion will be taken for those in need, and replaced when coal is more plentiful. Mayor Watson plans that the library shall be closed in order to save fuel and to the Banner remark- ed that he thought it time that some of the churches were doubling up. I noticed coal, he said, going up to the Methodist church to-day.--Listowel Banner. An ancient prophecy has been ful- filled with regard to the delivery of Jerusalem by a leader who would en- ter the city on foot. The Kaiser pos- ed as the deliverer in 1898 when he- made a threatrical entry into Jerusa- lem on horseback, through a hole in the city wall. Of course any deliver- er could fulfill the ancient prophecy's requirement with regard to entering the city on foot; but the deliverer's name had to be the "prophet of God." --"Alla" god, '"nabi" prophet. Gen- eral Allenby was the 'alla-nabi"' to the wondering people of Palestine this Christmas Day. On Wednesday evening of last week ninety bags of mail were driven from Stratford. After a number of the mail bags were left off at Mitch- ell, the rest of the mail was taken on to Seaforth and Clinton. On Thurs- day evening the first train since the blockade of a week ago reached Mit- chell and on it were twenty-five bags of open mail, containing daily news- papers, some of them nearly a week old. The late train the same night also brought a very large mail so that Postmaster Hicks and his staff of clerks have had a very busy time for the past few days.--Mitchell Corr. Stratford Herald. The Milverton Women's Institute intend holding a tea and sale of home made baking in the library on Satur- day, Jan. 26th (afternoon and even- ing). The contest for the autograph quilt closes that day and the drawing will take place. All those having tickets will please bring in the stubs Anyone desiring to bring any kind of home-made baking are requested to do so. The proceeds will be devoted to Red Cross purposes. On the same day an opportunity will be given to those who desire to contribute to the Children's Aid Society fruits, jellies, pickles, etc. A hot supper will be served from 8 o'clock on. Price 25 cents. Quite a number of newspapers are urging a change of date for, muni- cipal elections in towns and villages, and many exchanges have copied the Telescope's editorial of last month on the subject. The fact that New Year's week is no time for municipal elections is again emphasized by the lack of interest shown in many sur- rounding places in the recent elec- tions. In at least three municipali- ties in Bruce, a second nomination had to be held owng to the dearth of candidates. If some of the Muni- cipal Councils would petition the On- tario Legislature and stir up their local members on this point the mat- ter could be easily remedied.--Walk- erton Telescope. "Apart from Niagara there are many water powers in the Province which have not been developed. The utilization of these water powers should be carefully considered with a view to seeing that Ontario, by the development of these water powers, will to a great extent get rid of the many troubles experienced by the yank and file particularly, through the lack of fuel. The whole power scheme of the Province should be worked out on the most modern bas- is, and should ultimately be controll- ed by the Province." The above words were spoken by Wm. Proud- the Liberal leadership in Ontario. After all, why should we worry about a coal shortage and the high cost of 'fuel when millions of horsepower are {flowing to waste every minute ? foot in his speech of acceptance of ; Malcolm MacBeth, Editor and Proprietor ' You are sure of a good photo- graph, if you go to Lee, Listowel. Chicago schools are closed--but the boys have to get out and shovel snow. There's always a fly some place in the ointment. There is an advantage in having your own name printed on your but- ter wrappers. While our present stock lasts we will supply you at $3 per thousand. A few years ago the man who got in enough coal to put him through the winter was considered thrifty. Now, the same chap is looked upon as being a close relative to the Tam- worth. Mr. and Mrs. George Coghlin, Mill- bank, announce the engagement of their eldest daughter, Ella Evelyn, to Mr. Charles H. Vogan, of Linwood. The marriage to take place in Feb- ruary. . Low shoes and spats for women are advocated to save the leather that has been piled into women's boots in re- cent months. Pretty good idea, that. Some women have been wearin' boots so high that they've got corns on their knees. The cowboys on the prairies grow less and less, but not so with the cow- boys in the moving pictures. They still wear sheep skin pants, red hand- kerchiefs around their necks, have 72 centimetre guns hanging from their belts, slouch hats and wicked looking eyes. When it comes to conservation, the movies have no rivals. Knox and Gutherie Presbyterian congregations, of Harriston, held meetings in their respective churches on Tuesday of last week to vote on bases of permanent and temporary church union. Although a final de- cision was not arrived at, it is alto- gether likely the two churches will soon be permanently united. There is to be a Provincial Election in June. The talk in certain political quarters of a Unon Government for Ontario is not taken seriously and it by the Provincial Government are purely domestic; and are not affect- ed materially by the war. To allow our domestic affairs to go to pot dur- ing war time is not in the country's interests.--Walkerton Telescope. Canada's Indians are being exemp- ted from the operation of the military service act. The Indians have not the full rights of citizenship, since they are not allowed to vote, consequently the Government, acting in accordance with representations received from Indian councils, especially in British Columbia, has decided that the na- tion's wards should not be compelled to join the colors. ROBERT HENRY On January 4th, one of the old pio- neers of Elma township died at his home in Milverton following an at- tack of pneumonia. He had not been well for some months past and in his weakened condition became an easy prey to the malady. Mr. Henry was a native of Omah, Tyrone, Ireland, where he was born nearly 84 years ago. He came with his father, the late Hugh Henry, to Canada in 1846, settling in Esqueesing township. In 1847, they came to North Easthope, and a year later to Elma. In 1860, he married Jane Gilchrist, who died about fourteen years later. In 1877, he married Catharine Phillips, who survives him. He was the father of 15 children, ten of whom survive him. They are as follows: John G., Eliza- beth, Robert C., Hugh A., Isaac P., Mrs. -C. Blair, William, Samuel, Roy E. and Hamilton. ' He is also survived by 23 grandchildren. 'The funeral which was conducted by Rev. (Capt.) H. C. Nicholson, pastor of Christ church, Milverton, took place on Thursday afternoon to the Donegal Methodist cemetery, where the re- mains were interred. Six sons acted as pallbearers. During life Mr. Henry was a member of the Anglican church and in politics was an uncompromis- ing Conservative. Among those who attended the funeral from a distance were Mr. Joseph Watson, of Clifford; Mr. James Henry, Atwood, and Mrs. Lambe, Stratford. STRATFORD WINS FROM MIL- VERTON. In the first game of the junior N.L. schedule played at Stratford on Tues- day night, Milverton was defeated by a score of 9-5. The game was close throughout. Hoffman played a splen- did game on the defence for Stratford and made some splendid rushes. For Milverton Roese showed up well, and also W. Bundscho. Both goaltenders were particularly good. The work of Yost for Milverton saved many more goals from being scored. The teams lined up as follows: Stratford--Goal, Malone; defence, Walsh and Hoffman; centre, Morenz; right wing, Seebach; left wing, Lay- elle; substitute, Thorne. Milverton--Goal, Yost, defence, Roese and Kelterborn; centre, W. J. Bundscho; left wing, W. Bundscho; right wing, Hasenpflug; substitute, Bastendorff. ' Referee--Chas.

W. Huelsman Manager ANNUAL MEETING OF MORNING- TON AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY. The annual meeting of the Morn- ington Agricultural Society was held in the reading room of the Milverton public library on Friday afternoon. President Samuel Petrie occupied the chair. The auditors, Charles Trim and §. H. Pugh, presented their re- port, which showed that the society had just completed the most prosper- ous year of its history. The total re- ceipts for the year amounted to $1,894, and the total disbursements including a loan and the payment ef the outstanding debt of over $300.06 and interest, amounted to $1,751.00, leaving the society with a surplus of $143; this will probably be reduced to about $125 when all the liabilities for the year are paid. The net sur- plus on the year's operations was $450. During the last three years, the total-indebtedness of the society amounting to over $600 has been cleaned off. The membership for the past year amounted to 615, the pre- vious highest membership did not ex- ceed 450. The gate receipts in 1917 amounted to $547.00. The election of officers resulted as follows: President, John Baumbach; Vice-Pres., Geo. Roe; 2nd Vice-Pres., J. C. Grosch; Directors, John David- son, Thos. Dewar, D. B. Grieve, R, McCourt, Geo.
