Mias Mary Halbert of AUiston and a former teacher here is at present visiting at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Latimer. Miss Halbert has had splendid success with her entrance class, some twelve pupils all passing and one taking honors. This speaks very highly of Miss Halbert's ability as a teacher.

Mr. and Mrs. Albert Blackburn and two childi'en visited at Mr. Alex. Car- ruthers' the past week. We were pleased to note in last week's issue the success of some of the Flesherton boys of former years. It surely is grand to hear of these old school mates making such wonderful success, when we consider the educa- tional advantages of the days when they attended school, compared to the chance the boys and girls have at the present time. These boys mentioned in the paper last week are self-made men and after all do we not find it the case that invariably a boy who starts out from home with an ordinary pub- lic school education, and very often not even that, finds that he must either sink or swim, generally comes out on top with flying colors, a credit to himself, and to the world in which he moves. Other boys come up in our mind whom we know have made equally as fine a success in the busin- ess world and it would be very inter- esting to all the home folk to hear of these boys, as suggested by Ye Editor in last week's issue. The Liberal-Conservative Associa- tion, with their wives, held a picnic to Wilders' Lake on Wednesday last, when they were the guests of the local member, Hon. Dr. Jamieson and Mrs. Jamieson, at ther summer home. The wild animals which the Dr. has coll- ected and placed in his park were re- viewed with great interest and every one was unanimous in expressing their pleasure and enjoyment of the day. .\ number of our sporting fratern- ity attended a meeting on Wednesday last week which was called at Dur- ham for the purposf of organizing the Grey County Game and Fish Pro- tection .\ssociation, when tho men were met by Hon. Dr. Jamieson, chairman of the Agriculture Com- mission. Mr. Black, M.P.P. of-Adding- ton, chairman of the game and fish committee of the local House, also Mr. McBride of Brantford. .Discuss- ion took place as to ways and means of stocking in local rivers with trout fry for the enjoyment and sport of the sporting public. Resolutions were passed for memorializing the Government to throw open the pre- serve at Eugenia. The feeling of the County was quite unanimous that this be done. These resolutions will be diKussed at the local House at next session and in all probability will be passed. A strong committee was appointed representing every town- ship in the county. One of our local sports, Mr. P. Munshaw, was elected Vice-President. We unedrstand the .Association will meet in the near fu- ture to draw up rules and regulations wb«reby they will be able to help the control and protecton of the game and fl»h, so that thejr will not become extinrt. ing at 11 a.m. and evening at 7.30.
