Canadian soldiers in the war in South E Africa. Mr: Brown was with these' soldiers all through the campaign. or? at least until the battle of Zand River, and as a narrator of events, ’and as an observer, has very few: rivals or superiors. Remembering' . this, and recalling my old acquaint-.

Ye Editor said a few words about the middle of the entertainment. The clogs and cakewalks were in- teresting, and like all other numbers were rapturously applauded. The order was good and every one present. seemed to enjoy themselves fully. Inspector Campbell occupied the chair, and in a few remarks stated 7 the object of the meeting, and refer- red to a few of the circumstances in connection with the struggle for the ' school. He congratulated the people of the section on the consummation of so handsome and substantial a structure, and wished them well in . the educational advancement, he felt confident such increased facilities would bring about. He regretted that Mr. David Allan was unavoid- ably absent, and without further ceremony be discharged his duties {faithfully and well and without any flagging of interest.
