It is to be ~hoped that all our citizens will endeavor to give the town the tidy and tasty appearance in keep- ing with the natural scenery.

However, after two or three accidents to machines and several primings of buttermilk, the trio made good time ; when about three miles from Onllia they struck a good road and wheeled into Orillia in the best of form, having made the trip in about ve hours actual time. After dinner at the Orillia House, they had a ride around town. and one of the boys reports the road to Atherlevto be one of- the best in the county, which he accounts for by `the in- crease of promenading in that direction since the Scott Act came in force.

On Thursday evening, the last lecture of the winter course at the Mechanics Insti- tute was delivered by Mr. Haughton Len- nox. The subject was law. John Dicken- som Esq., was elected chairman, ani intro- ducing the lecturer said, that the subject was one that was not often chosen in a popular course because of its proverbial dry- ness, `but he thought if it was possible to 1-nvnannl-. flan unl'n.;nk A-`ans-dun!` AF -nfa Art?

He would therefore without further remarks introduce thelecturer. Mr. Lennox was received with applause, and for about an hour interested his audience. We shall not pretend to re- port even an outline of the ground taken by the lecturer. We may be permitted to say that it covered a. large extent of legal ground and exhibited wide research and extensive knowledge. The law with reference to promisory -notes, contracts, slander, libel, master and servant, husband and wife, was sketched in such a clear and precise style that many persons would feel quite compet- . ent to grapp!e with the cases embraced ' therein without going to a lawy er and pay- I ing for advice. At the close of his interest- | ing and instructive lecture a hearty vote of ` thanks was tendered to the lecturer and also to the chairman. There was a fair at- tendance, and as usuala good representation of ladies. ' - Military Notes.

His shirt sleeve was caught by the revolving cards at the front of the machine, and drew his hand be- tween the cards. His cries caused a man to turn off the belt and saved the lad from serious injury. As it fortunately happened the injury is not very serious. A Playful Bite. Little Nell, Hanmer s sporting mare, gave the boy who takes care of her a playful nip last Thursday evening. He was `playing with her when the animal nipped him on the forehead, making a wound about an inch in length which bled somewhat profusely. By the pale look of the boy one would judge that he would rather not be favored with many of Little Ne1l s kisses. P01101131. Mr. E. E.

I The Admission of` Correspondence Does Not Necessarily Imply that We Hold the Opinions of the Writer. The following letters addressed to the Editor of THE NOR I`HEP.N' ADVANCE, have been received tor publication : The Robinson Park. DEAR S1R,-Ha.ving occasion to visit Bob- inson s Park at `Big Bay Point, a few days ago, I was surprised to see the improvements already made this spring. The residence for guests is being enlarged and re-arranged and tastilv tted up for the comfort and ac- commodation of boarders that will visit the park this summer. Mr. Robinson assured me that arrangements have already been made for the following: Salvation Army Camp Meeting, commencing 19th June, for one week; Rev. Mr. Kerr, pastor Agnes Street Methodist Church, Toronto, commen- cing 29th June. one week; United States and Canada Gospel Army about the 20th hOI7I hODTI TVIQIID LETTERS ADDRESSED TO THE EDITOR THIS WEEK. J uly-. -Arrangements have been made with Mr. McPherson to run his steamboat to con- nect with trains at Barrie morning and even- ing three times a weeks, namely, Mondays, V Wednesdays and Saturdays/ during the sea- son. This park in natural beauty cannot be exceeded in the whole northern country. The commingling of our native forest trees, such as the vvalnut, oak, ash, maple, birch. beech, basswood and -every kind of native evergreen, lends the place an indescribable charm when united with the magnicent waters of the lake and the bay, from which cooling: breezes gently tan the visitor to ease and quiet comfort. Among the many pleasant localities on the lake shore, none can com- pete with Robinson s Park for school picnics and private parties to enjoy themselves and spend their anniversary holidays.

Last'Friday night the Town Hall was packed, as was anticipated, with the patrons and lovers of music, and we have attended many a fty_ cent musical entertainment very far below this in merit. The voices of the singers were in excellent train and they immediately secured the sympathy of the large audience. The following pieces were admirably rendered: Chorus,--Oh! Hail us ye Free. Anthem,-Rest from your labors. Soprano Solo,--Waiting, Mrs. Ketcham. Duett,-The Pilot, Messrs. Ketcham and Cheney. Solo,--The Old Lock, Miss Lan taff. Duett,-Come Haste and seek, Miss etcham and Miss Langstaff. Quartette,-Come where the Lilies Bloom. Solo,--When the Tide comes in, Mrs. Ketcham. Anthem,--The Golden Gate. Solo,-Bid me Good Bye, Miss Langstaff. These. pieces were loudlyapplauded, and gave evidence of a true conception of that ex- pression in music, which is so important to its just interpretation. 0! course, there was an ulterior object in giving this concert, which we hope will be realized. The re- marks u_ on the importance of congregational singing y Mr. Ketcham deserve the best consideration of his hearers. As a rule Canadian church congregations leave the singing to the choir. and therefore one of the most important portions of worshi is life- less and depressing. Nothing can be grand- er than the congregational singing in Ply- mouth church, and in Dr. Talmage s in New In Beecher : church the music is on one page and the hymn on another, and the worshipers have learned to read music, and consequently everyone joins in the service of song. One of the grand old tunes, sung by a choir of three or four thousand is worth going many miles to hear and join in. Every child should be taught to read music at sight just as he is taught to read a book at sight. Without it general congregational singing is out of the question. tinn in the hall on Friday night was the best the company ever had, amounting to up- wards of $24.00.

BARRIE, COUNTY OF SIMQOE, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, -MAY 6, 1886, Last Sunday the members of Lodge, No. 63, I. O. O. F., and a few of Mizpah Encampment, making in all between sixty and seventy, went in procession to the `Presbyterian church and heard a very im ressive dis-_ course by Rev. D. D. Me The text chosen was the 4th chapter, of Paul's letter to the Philippians and the 8th verse. Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, what- soever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, what- soever things'are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise. think on these things. The speaker commended the formation of societies for mutual good, Ifor the relief of the distressed, and for the amelioration of the suifering and woes of hu- manity, and indicatedthat by such union they could accomplish what it would be impossi- ble as individuals acting as separate units. He deprecated a union in name merely with- ` out that union of heart and spirit, without which societies are essentially formal and lifeless. '_ Nothing can make man what he ought to be, whether a member of the odd- fellows orany other society but the love of Christ `shed abroad in his heart. Suffering iand want and distress served to develops in. man those high and noble qualities. of his nature which served to make him a good Samaritan. N o combinations of men, no laws, no power of governments could possi- bly settle the troubles which are agitating the world. Nothing short ofthe religion of Christ working in individual hearts would do that. The speakers emphasized the im- portance of seeking the true and the pure, and this the word of God supplies. The religion of the Bible alone can lead the seeker intovall truth and purity. Hereis the solu- tion of all the world s troubles and the way in which true happiness is found. This line of thought ran through the sermon which was delivered with an earnestness that could not fail to arrest and secure attention. ithe Methodistohurch, and was an earnest worker fo_r the Master for one so young. Much sorrow isfelt that she has gone so soon from the companionship of those who so dearly loved her. Her funeral `which was `largely attended took place on Sunday to the Union Cemetery, and a very im ressive sermon was preached b Rev. Mr. ilkin- son on the occasion. rs.

It will be seen by notice elsewhere that a meeting has been called for next Monday evening by Mr. "H. H. Strathy, President of the Young Mens Liberal-Conservative As- sociation, for the purpose of reorganization and the election of ofcers. ` We are glad to see this and we hope that a very large number of the young men will be there. It is the duty of every young man who de sires to see good government to fully prepare himself to sustain it. By the extension of T the franchise there will be a large addition to the electorate throughout the Dominion, and it is of the utmost importance that they be well prepared for ' the responsible duties thus devolving upon them. The rightto vote means something more than merely goinggto "the polls on the day of election.` It means an_ intelligent conception of the issues before the country. The young Conservative voter should be conversant with the political history of the country and es cially with the benecient legislation w ich the country has received from Gen- servative rule. He should be able to refute the Vmistatements and slanders of Grit politicians with reference to the government and to be able fully to give reasons for his political faith. As a rule Conservative voters have an intelligent appreciation of their duties and responsibilities, but the only way to perpetuate those grand princi- Iples which have aided so much in the pros- nnriden A` {than nnnnltrv n!` ma.
