Forest. _ While the Minister of Highâ€" ways was nonâ€"committal in his reply, he was inclined to lean to the belief that hte road in question should be made a County Provincial road ; by this arrangement, the Province would pay 60 per cent of the cost. Request was also made by the deputation for a north and south road between Ceyâ€" lon and Fergus. The Minister sugâ€" gested that the construction of this route be referred to the County Counâ€" cils concerned, as at the present time the route was under the control of the Townships and it was not the policy of the Department to take over Township roads as Provincial Highâ€" ways.

That same evening (Friday) a beautiful sight was afforded in the heavens, when the planets Jupiter and Venus were in conjunction with the moon. It may not have been beauâ€" tiful visually to some eyes, but beauâ€" tiful in the engendered thoughts, cogâ€" itations and inspired feelings as "we consider the heavens, and see the moon and stars which Thine own fingers framed." We are constrained to repeat "What is Man, that Thou art mindful of him, or the son of man that Thou visiteth him ?"â€"Ps.8®.
