He weighs {36Q_pounds, the coat is 63 inches George Padmore, 71 years of age, made his 116th appearance last week in a London, England, police court charged with being drunk and disorderly. George may not belong to the upper strata of so- ciety. but he has evidently been some high-stepper in his day. Despite the assurances of Prem- ier King that nothing has yet been done regarding the holding of an election this fall, the activities re- ported from all political camps seem to say that the Dominion Government’s appeal to the people shall not long be delayed. The holding of riding conventions by all parties and the selection of candidates show that no one takes the Premier’s utterances seriously and that evidently the better course to pursue is to be ready. The re- cent appointment of returning of- ficers all over the Dominion also leads the public to believe that the persistent rumor of the past few 1 months is more to be believed thanl the assurances of the Cabinet that there is to be no election in the near future. alv'vi Sofar as THE CHRONICLE is con- cerned, we want newsâ€"all the news. It doesn’t matter whether or not we agree with everything ex- pressed, we want it anyway; and we want it free from any patch- work. Some of our readers may not agree with this stand, but we think that the majority of people nowadays subscribe to a newspaper to find out what is going on in the community and are entirely capable of forming their own opin- ions. If the editor of this paper has opinions contrary to those ex- pressed, he has his editorial col- umn to turn to. News, as applied to journalism, is a truthful state- ment of facts of happenings that occur in a community. This does not mean idle gossip, which a good newspaper should shun as it would the plague. Newspapers, if they are to fill their place in a community, must be just as their names impliesâ€"- newspapers. They should give no garbled reports of anything, but if a meeting or gathering or other news feature is worth reporting at all, it is worth reporting correctly. A newspaper that refuses to pub- lish a news item for the sole rea- son that the subject does not ap- peal to the editor, or because he happens to hold different views to the matter discussed, is not work- ing in the interests of either itself or the community it serves. These same fellows would likely condemn the whole meal in a high- class hotel if there happened to be something on the menu that they did not like. It is so in news- paper work. BROADEN OUT There are some people who, judg- ing from their actions at times, seem to think that the whole world was made for them and no one else.

Thursday, September 3, 1925. EDITORIAL NOTES Canada‘s National Exhibition, the biggest annual show in the worid, opened last Saturday, and the turn- stiles at the end of each day have shown that all previous records for attendance have been broken and that the drive for two million ad- missions this year may net he as hard a matter to accomplish as some thought. Up to Tuesday night, the increase over the 1924 figures was 26.800. With the exhibition on in Tor- onto and harvest Operations in full swing throughout this district, news this week is at a premium and about as hard to get as a ham sandwich at a Jewish wedding. Mrs. Sims nf Holstein was also in tnwn Saturday having an X-ray takcn 0f hcr arm, which was frac- turml recently.

FRACTU‘RED ARI! IN We look back with great pleasure upon the days that are past and think of the many pleasing and halâ€" lowed associations we have had to- gvther. Your career as a teacher among us has been a successful one, successful because you possessed the art of discipline and made us work. We were lead to believe in the dictum that “work is a divine institution and that idleness is a curse.” and because we are made to work consistently and well, that factor became a contribution to- wards your success and our ad- vancvménL The duty given me to penform this evening is one which causes a cer- tain amount of regretâ€"regret i-n parting with a teacher and leader who has been much respected and beloved by all with whom she has come in contact. After tripping the light fantastic for a short while, the meeting was called to order by the chairman, Mr. Thomas McDougal, when Miss Mae McEachern read the following address, and Miss Anna McEachern made‘ the presentation, after which Miss MacCuaig made a suitable reply. The remainder of the even- ing was spent in music and danc~ ing till the wee, sma’ hours. I188 ISLAY lacCllAlG PRESENTED WITH PURSE Following is the address. Dear Miss MacCuaig: On Thursday evening last, the home of Mr. A. MacCuaig was in- vaded by about eighty of the par- ents, friends and children from U. S. S. No. 10, Glenelg and Egremont. The object of their meeting was to bid adieu to Miss Islay, who has taught successfully in that section the past three years. Popular.

A quiet but pretty wedding was solemnized‘at the home of Mr. and Mrs. L. Cake, 847 Princess Avenue, London, when their niece, Wilhel- mine Collinsnn. eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W.

Hawkins, of Arthur, was married to Mr. Robert Alexander Mortley, son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Mortley, of Dex-noch. The ceremony, which was very quiet, was performed by Rev. George C. Pidgeon, pastor of St. An- drew’s United church.
