IHE DURHAM CHRONICLE ‘l‘L‘AQ‘L VA \JVI‘IN v- -- man. The idea of prowling around at all hours of the night, instead of taking natural rest and being built up for the next day’s work. is a prcatice that no sane man can justify.

Her sister, Miss Edith, took her place in Dur- ham. Mr. and Mrs. Wilson, of Lorraine, came over to be present at the funezal of the latters sister, Mrs. McAlister. In this issue We quote a short article on “Sleep for :Looks,” in in which women are recommended to take a short mid-day .nap, if only for fifteen minutes. It 15 further recommended to have reg- ular hours for sleep, and to make good use of the time decidegl‘ on. tion, and feel quite confident that men as well as women would be greatly benefited by taking regu- lar rest.

A i , The editor who assumes the responsibility for the moulding of public opinion, must have truth and sincerity for his foundations A noted writer has wisely said: “Truth is always consistent *with itself and needs nothing to keep iti out.” It is always near at hand, and sits upon our lips and is ready to drop out before we are aware. Whereas a lie is troublesome and sets man’s inventions upon arack, and one trick needs a great many more to make it right. It is like a building upon a false foundation which continually stands in need of props to hold .it up. A prevari- cator is the last man who finds himself out, and, while he makes fools of others. he alone remains ,ridiculous. Truth is a lost asset; in many newspapers of the world to-d'ay, men are blinded by party prejudice and antiquated ideas and fail “to draw the things as they see them, for the God of the. things as they are,” “all for the sake of partyism or orthodoxy. There never was a brighter outlook for- editors to-day to mould the minds! of men of this fair Dominion ofl ours, for truth and righteousnessv which alone exalteth a mation,! (for the church having lost its hold} on the vast majority of the men ofi the world to-day) it lies with us asl editors to reverence all things sac- red and make for .a good and happy living among our people. Sincerity is another great asset, for an editor to possess, and is an, excellent instrument for the crea- tion of confidence. It creates confidence in those with whom we dealâ€"and that is the great public iâ€"with all its differences of opinion; ton the vexed questions of the day; , Sincerity brings things to an 'issue in a few words. It is like ‘travelling on a plain beaten road which commonly brings a iman sooner to his journey’s end ithan bye-ways in which men often lose themselves. In a word, whatsoever convenience may arise lin falsehood, or dissimulation it is soon over, but the inconvenience of .lit. is perpetual, because it brings A Paper Read by J . J Pratt, Editor of The Owen Sound Herald, at the Meeting of The Grey Bruce Press Association in Harriston, May 18th Gentlemenâ€"When approached by the Programme Committee of the Grey and Bruce Press Association to talk to you for a few minutes on this all-absorbing and interest- ing question that concerns the town and country editor, I was, to say the least, delighted to assume the responsibility, for it is a question that strikes home to every one of us, and more espec- ially so to our reaciers.

Mr. Wil- liams, of Dund‘alk, the Rev. James Buchanan conducted the funeral service held in Mt. Zion church. A terrific thunderstorm, with deluge of rain, visited this section on Friday morning last. Fortun- ately there was only minor damage done, other than that to the roads by swollen currents. At the horseâ€" shoe washout there was consider- able added to the former break and the contractor on the new bridge will have sufifered loss by .the cave-in. The Methodist and Presbyterian} choirs were assisted on Sunday by; the visitors, Dr. Murray, of To-i ronto, and Mrs. Matheson, of Nia- gara, both of Whom were highly] appreciated.
