M, Hunter. has been eminently suc- cessful in her collegiate examination, having secured the Isbester scholar- ship of 820. With her many friends and acquaintances here we exted our congratulations. Mn. JOHN COLLINS, late of Orchard- ville, has opened up a blacksmith in the old Innis foundry just across the Garafraxa. Street bridge. We welcome him as a. citizen, and if he can do as much work and as good work as our Orchardville correspond- ent used to give him credit for there wont be much need of other black- smiths after John gets in full swing. v- '- which resulted in his death at the Marine Hospital a few hours later. The mill was just being put in oper- ation and the difl'erent parts were be- ing tested when a rapidly revolving balance wheel happened to burst in the power house. A piece of the u heel Struck the doctor and from the first no hopes were entertained of his recovery. The deceased was the chief promoter of the concern and was anxiously watching develop- ments in the initial stage of Opera- tion when the accident occurred. DR. HORSEY M.

IT’S well worth something to trust a. small amount to those Who are like- ly not to pay, and while they owe you. which is likely to be forever, they’re not likely to bother you again, and if they do you know how to handle them. Two of the iron workers at the Cement Works had a narrow escape from death on Monday last. While engaged in rivetting the scaffolding fell precipitating both to the ground beneath, a distance of about twenty '-â€"V“Vâ€", er twenti-five feet. One of them hadabone of the arm broken and both were somewhat injured, but we trust recovery is certain. THE members of the Epworth League of the Methodist Church and the children and teachers of the Sun- day School had a pleasant outing at Wilder’s Lake on Tuesday last. It was their annual picnic, and the kind- ness of the Cement Company in giv- ing them a free ride over the new _railroacl intensified the pleasure of the occassion, and made the picnic of 1902 a memorable one in the history of the League and School. WE were pleased on Tuesday last to shake hands with our old teacher, Mr. Robert Agnew. of Meaford, who is now a member of the County Council. We had an idea that he considered the modest scribe a bad ‘° young ’un ” as he wielded the birch over us in the early 70’s. Such, it seems, is not the case. and the opin-x ion he gives would be good enough to put in a Sunday School book. An- other teacher heard from. and still no reason why we should not be al- lowed to live. Mr. John A. Munro doesn’t give us a very bad record, and should a few others like Mr. Agnew and Mr. Munro come on the scene and talk similarly, the chances are we’ll think ourself too good for this sphere, and seek something bet- ter than the mundane joys that lie so thickly in our pathway. We were real pleased to meet Mr. Agnew, and hope his kindly feeling will be ex« tended to supporting our claim for the Poor House. OFF TO SCOTLAND.â€"On Monday af- ternoon last Mr. R. McFarlane, Sr., his daughter, Mrs. J. P. Hunter, his son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Arthur H. Jackson, and Mr. J. H. Hunter, of the Corner Store, set. CHARCOAL in balk at J. A. Hunter’s. out, for bonnie Scotland where they will remain for a. couple of months’ visit. The Saturday previous Mr. \Valter Nichol, Sn. went as far as Toronto and will, in all probability, join the others there on their trip to “ The Land of the Heather.” Half a century ago a trip to the Old Land would appear like an eternal separa- tion. but such are the changes of that‘ half century that time and distance? are now so nearly annihilated, that a. trip across the ocean has come to be regarded as a brief outing to those who have the time and money at their disposal. And after all what better way could any one devise for a good profitable and invigorating ‘ summer holiday. We wish them one and all a pleasant voyage and a safe return.

THE Presbyterian Sunday School picnic at Wilder’s Lake last week was largely attended. and quite an enjoyable afiair. They were taken out on the Cement Company’s rail- way. and enjoyed the trip on the flat cars even better than they would if more comfortable accommodation had been afiorded. THOUGH no paper was issued last week we hope our readers will not infer that we were idling around do- ing nothing. Quite the reverse, for the whole stafi was as busy as nailers tussling through the Glenelg Voters’ List. Another week’s holiday would indeed be necessary to enable us to even up with our work. We do not refer to this little rush in a fault-find- ing spirit, nor do we wish our pat- rons to think we are too independent to take their orders and their work. Two weeks ago we referred to the fact that a monument had been pur- chased for the Gregson brothers. who were recently drowned in the river here, and that the monument would be in place on the 28th of July. True to what we then said, it was placed in position on Monday last by the manufacturers, Messrs. Robinson Corbett, of Mt. Forest, and reflects great credit on them as skilled artis- , ‘.L "u ‘LA .V'UU V-vâ€"-â€" ans. as well as great credit for the kindness of the contributors who con- ceived the idea. of giving the unfor- tunate young men a good Christian burial, WE have to inform our many read- ers this week of a change of business. For three generations a business has been carried on here by the Hunter families, and all readers are familiar with the name of Mr. J. A. Hunter. whose spicy advertising has formed a special feature of the local papers. Mr. Hunter was a young man of con- siderable enterprise, and so far as our personal knowledge of him is con- cerned we always found him honor- able in his dealings, and further we are of the opinion that the general public found him just as we found him. But he has sold out his busi- ness. and after the first of September the business at Phe Big Store will be controlled by other bands. The new purchaser, Mr, Russell. of Elora. is a gentleman highly recommended to us. as a man of stirling ability and uprightness in his dealings. Apart1 from what we hear we know nothing.l In the same sentence in which we express our regret at losing Mr. Hunter let us welcome Mr. Russell, and hape that the same friendly busi- ness relations. hitherto carried on between Mr. Hunter and us. may be transferred _ to the new man. Mr. Russell. and that time will inspire us with as fall a confidence as we had in his predecessor. Mr. Hunter, as we learn from his advertisement this week. intends going to Minneapolis, . where he will engage in what we hepe may prove to him a more lucra- ' tive business.
