The large attondâ€" ance at the Model schaol this year, caused. no doubt by the prospect of losing it, leads one to fear that its ab. sence will be greatly muissed.

His wealth, if tainted, has never been Theodorized or subjected to the germ analysis of Mr Moopy. Why this immuanity? His giftts are, in the main, unnecessary and unequal, Feo gives to the slender starveling a tin whistile, to the stuffed richling a goldâ€" en automobile, His Christmas cigars are notoriously violent, his mementoes in the way of slippers, gloves, and dressing coats often do injustice to the human form divine. Yet nothing we can say, in truth or malice, can dim the splendors of his popularity. Supâ€" pose he shculd becorne sensible. useâ€" ful, necessgary ; suppose he should withdraw his flood of little gifts and devote the value to some bumane inâ€" stitution. like a Home for Honest Politicians or a College for Domestig Servants.

PrixTtERrs IN HARD LUCK.â€"Last week Mr Irwin of the Chronicle bad a smash of his gasoline engine before his issue was half through. We took in hand in a neighborly way to finish the Chronicle on the Review pressand were getting along nicely when a slip in feeding made a smash on our press which put an end to ihe neighhorly' stunt and compelled the issue to be finished by hand on his own press. Investigation of our own mishap showed that it could be repaired locally, Mr J. 8. Drysdale a local artist in iron, took it in hand and asâ€" ’ sisted by MrDuncan of the Farmer‘s Man. and Supply Co. have once more got us aâ€"going in good shape. Mr Drysdale had experience among many kinds of presses in Scotland and in this country, and though he never handled an "Oscillator Campbel!" be succeeded in getting ‘"cnto it," and got the inâ€" tricate adjustments of cogâ€"wheels &c., into their place. Mr Ilrwin expects his engine back from the makers this week, so that everything is * as you were," Our thanks are due also to Bro Irwin of the Chronicle who has a knack with machinery that would have made him a good engineer.

Guild had a redâ€"letter night. Dr Browu of Holstein, President of Saugeen Presbyterial Bociety was announced and a much larger atâ€" tendarce than usual was present, Rev Mr Little accompanied him and said a few appropriate words as introductâ€" ory. The Doctor‘s topic was "power" in the service of Christ and very imâ€" pressively and unaffectedly hbe pressed his points. In his deep earnestness be renches for the heart and conscience of his bearers very strongly, and it is impossible to escape the mental attiâ€" tude of introspection he induces. Dr Brown is no mean member of his proâ€" fession, he is po pular as solcist, pub. lic spirited in every good cause and hearing bhim as an evangelist one is forced to say ‘"‘what manner of man have we here." He is making a round of all the societies in the Presbytery and must leaye a useful inspiration behind him.
