But for the Canadians the German: would have got through to Calais and 75.000 mitish troops would have been drowned in the Y pres Canal like rate. We did our duty, The colonel ex" pressed the hope that never again the Canadians be called upon to nuke such a "criiice. No better army ever fought in Europe than our 1Janadtans.

Our town financiers have decided on a 36 mill rate for 1915, which establish. es a raord in that line in excess of any past year. We believe the council is acting wisely in thus meeting necessi- ties rather than staving off the evil day as has too frequently been the custom in past years, so as to boast ofalow rate. That practice is to some extent to blame for the present situation and if this year's rate puts the town on solid footing it should be the aim of future councils to make every year stand on its own resources. _ While this should be the aim one wonders it no leaks have occurred in uncollected taxes, dog taxes, poll taxes, and some other subsidiary sources of revenue. There is occasion for the strictest oversight and the council that dared to impose a M mill rate, should be equal to the task. Col. Currie, Commnder of the Highland Brigade at Langemnrck Obituary. Limes McMIctttrtt As we briefly intimated last week the demh of this gentleman took place on Wednesday last, 11th August, 1915' " the age of 82 yrs and some months. Interment took place on Fridnv to Maplewoood cemetery, there being a lame and sympathetic attendance of relatives, friends and neighbors, the eeryices being conducted by Rev. Mr Morris of Trinity Church. in the ab- sence of the pastor of the church of which he was an adherent. Rev. Mr. Wylie. Mr McMicken was a native of Scot- land coming to this country in youth and after some time in the older settle- ments came to Egremont township in the late 60's of last century. It may he said therefore he was one of the pi. oueers and one of the best known men in that community. Together with his wife, who was Miss E, McOlinton. they struggled through the ditBeultiets of the early day-3. the while raising a large family and acquired a fair com. petence and a comfortable home. His wife survives him and the following sons and daughters: Robert, on the home farm, Mrs McKenzie. David at Sault Ste Marie, Mu Dan McAuliffe, Durham. Mrs John Henry, Shallow Lake.

THE Mon-n Gone OtC--Three. weeks ago the Review voiced the opinion that there would be no Model school in Hanover this term and this was exactly what would have happened if Hon. Dr. Jamieson, M. L. A. had not got in touch with the Educational Department at Toronto with the re- sult that the decision has been chang- ed. Apparently the reason for strik- ing Hanover " the list is the present great supply of teachers and the num- ber who now attend the Normal in- stead of the Model, It also seems at one time this summer Hanover was mdittertsnt to have the school at all but another attitude was taken later, but even then, no provision was made for the school by the department. Teachers were engaged. housewwes cleaned their furniture and restocked their lard'ers, anticipating thestudsnts who were to come from a distance but who would not, have come it the right wires had not been pulled at the last moment.
