House Stables. 70 to S 70 to '27 to 60 to 40 to 10 c: at H to no Mr Eastman. Principal of the Public School and master of all ceremonies, is at present introducing a singing school in the village. Eastman, though but a short time here, has brought about many l‘c- forms. He goes about with his eyes open. He is not afraid to make the bold statement that the citizens of the community are Without any doubt, clever, eSpecially the young ladies. He notes that their voices are powerfully sweet and musical. He is sure that with proper training they will achieve success in the singing world. We hOpe that his efforts to establish a school will be successful. Prof. Stewart. a representative of the Professional Horseshoers’ As- sociation, lectured in Union Hall las: week to arouse the enthusiasm of the tradesmen here. The objeCt of the Association is to establish a College for horseshOers in Toronto and to grant all graduates a license for the practice of their profession They Will petition the Local Legis- lature for protection and the es. tablishment of a tariff of fees. They claim that no blacksmith can do good work at present rates and the con- sequence is that so many h rses are blemished. Sparins. rim; bones. Splints. Sidebones are usually the result of shOeing. But it is not al. ways the fault of the blacksmith. Horseowners have sometimes the faculty of leaving shoes on too long. etc. thus thinking to save a few Cents, and the smith shoulders the responsibility Mr. {eilem though admitting that Prof. Stewart had a Splendid collection of diseased hoofs and bones. nevertheless could not agree to all the Professor’s arguv ments ’Tis reported that the As‘ sociation has offered our renowned smith a Professorship in the new College and vye are sure that they will certainly profit by Mr. Reiley’s vast: CXperienCe, not only in this country but in Ireland and the Brit ish army. \Ve hope he will see his way clear to accept the honored chair of Professorship, Our Vet. erinary Surgeon did not attend the lecture. He does not believe in “ sceptics.” The Watson brothers who had the contract of repairing the school building. have completed their job very satisfactory indeed. Charlie is undoubtedly a master of his trade. It was rather up-hill work starting a Public Library'tin Priceville. A great many could not at firSt see how a few books were going to be of any great benefit to them. yet these peOple were not bigOted. They were quite willing to be taught and finally accepted the Library. Ow- ing to the heavy expense which of necessity was experienced in the initiatory steps, the management were unable to buy as many books as they would have liked. They did the best they could under the cir- cumstances. however, hoping to add more in a very short time, that time has arrived and they are bound to raise the-money. Therefore, on the 4th of November (Wednesday) they will give an exceptionally fine Con- cert in Watson’s Ball. It will in- deed be a treat in the musical line. Mr. Donald C. MacGregor, the Scot- tish Baritone. who is well known here has been engaged for the oc- casion. Miss Maude Buschlen, one of Canada’s greatest Violinists, has also promised her services. She stands so high in her profession that Priceville might be proud to welcome her. Their will be Highland 'piping and Highland dancing.

Six months ago there was not a sign of a building, but, once operations began there was no time lost. and in less than four months the work of manufacturing was in progress. The mtin building is 100 feet long on each street by 30 feet wide. in the form of an "I.” and only one story high (as may he seen.) For the manu- facture of Iron goods the company derided on the. one-story type, to avoid excessive heavy labor. the. interior is well equipped with the best machinery proenrable, and they now are unable to fill orders although they have. thirty- seven men on the pay ml and manufacture between twenty and thirty machines a week. The foundation is of solid cement concrete, while the walls are. of hollow eelnent bloeks. made from Nalional Portland Cement, a mat "rial that; is rapidly reming to the front fo ° all structures where brick. stone. wood and iron Were. l'm-merly used. The casting is done at present in the. foundry of (T. Smith and Sons of this town, and all the rest of the. work in the building here. shown. The (hnnpany has already establislmd the reputation of the Oxford. made in four or five different sizes, and without being boastful we feel that no better machine can to-day be found on the market. ary we understand that the manage- ment has secured a piano for the occasion. Miss Allan, Professional Accompanist, will preside. It' is to be hoped that the people will come and support the cause and take in one of the finest entertainments that has ever been. in Priceville, The plan of the ball will be-in MC- Arthfir’s'store.

Glad to see Charlie back again. Mrs. Grieves, of Buffalo, is at present; visiting at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. McRae.
