It is Intended to foster a spirit of pride in the Empire, and has been selected alongside of the Queen's Birthday with the purpose no doubt of shunting it on to the. 24 of May when the Queen dies, and thus make perpetu- al a day which shall commemorate a Queen who reigned the longest of any British monarch. who was the most beloved. and under whom the Empire of Greater Britain became more strong and stable than ever before. The season of the year, at leastiu the North. ern hemisphere, lends itself admirably for a holiday, and we think the origin- ators of Empire Day have acted wisely. The forenoon of the day is to he spent by teacher and pupils in patriotic exercises, with special references to the Empire, the " etc.. while. in the after. noon addresses by prominent citizens or ratelmyers are to be given, on topics calculated to stimulate pride in the Empire in the breasts of the pupils. FIMT BLOOD Port Tme BY-LAW.-- Mr. R. Torry has often thought of con- verting his gallery into a residence, hut the condition of the town till Monday night last gave him no encouragement. What was our surprise on looking out Tuesday morning to find our neighbor preparing to build an addition to hits' property which will give him a nice, residence. and leave room for the old, established gallery too, which he ind tends to overhaul as well. Mr. B. ( Sharp has the framing in hand. Was) have reason to believe the same epirit‘ of hope animates not a few of our townsmen, and we hope that spiriti may be encouraged to expand till our} town will take on a. new lease of life. I EMPIRE Dit-Tha latest patriotic day is to heohserved in ill the schools of Ontario on Tuesday May 28. The idea of this day originated we believe with our able Minister of Education FROM BRANDos.--We were pleased to receive last week a pleasant breezy letter from Mr. Jas. (Justell. formerly with Ramsay & Morlock of this town. He has now soon Manitoba through a year's changes, and dares to any that he likes it "very much better than iOntnrio. though it has its drawbacks," Seeding was in full progress, Mar 2, while the city had hardly got. their water. pipes thawed out. and no wonder I With frost that penetrates the ground over toft. While writing he was‘ waiting up to catch a word with Mice Meredith " he passed through. We] beg to acknowledm his kind words tor the Review with remittance. i Ner, MARKET EHA.~Lait Sunday the pulpit was nipplied by Rev. A. G. Jan. son of Durham, and the congregations were m well pleased with the sermons that the Rev. gentleman was requested to tell something mare about hin native country- Holland. Accordingly Mr. Junm-n has consented togive his lecture on "Holland and the llollnnders." in the Presbyterian Church on Friday evening May 5th in aid of Foreign Missionl. The Tara Leader has changed hands. The new proprietor is H. A. Vnndusen, anative of the place. who makes his "salutatory" last week. We trust. Mr. Vunduson. who "has had a desire to elm-r the "ewspaper field since boyhood” "my be tt,rvarifleti, as we hope he will he sucuwst’nl in the change frnnt the dry Goods ctyutttet' to the editorial chair. APvExIncrTis.-Drs. J. L. Smith and T, McCullough of Burundi and Chats- worth respectively, operated very successfully on Mr. Lueck of Sullivan recently. Thursday, llth inst. being Ascension Day, Divine service will he held in Trinity church at 8 o'clock in the eve- ning. All are cordially invited. NEW BooK8.--Alrout 870 worth of new books has just lately been received at the PUNK: Library, and will be catalogued in a short time. DEATH HY Drtowsuscr.---F'ergus papers relate a sad tale of the death of Geo. Bresmahan, age 13, by drowning in the Grand River. The population of Orangeville is, 4025. PURSE LOST Ry Mr. E. w. Geddes, an old Hampden boy, has been given the position of Manager of the new Furniture Factory in Hepworth. His brother-in-law Mr. Arch, Cunningham, 41 years in Chuley has moved to Bepworth to take charge of E, W's large store there, The En- terprise regrets Mr. Cunningham’s renown! and describes him " I. very estimable citizen. Every loyal citizen will wish success to this scheme, though it is regrettable that some on whose property deposits occur. will not treat the matter in a public spirited manna-l. Just what kind of a company may be formed we do not know, but already stock has been subscribed several thousands in advance of the. Furniture Co., the McKechnie firm with commend- able enterprise and public spirit offering a. sum nearly equal to the whole amount subscribed to the Furniture Co. Locally the discovery of this material with such latent possibilities affecting the interest of this neighborhood as well as the interest now being taken in it, belongs to one men. and that man is Neil Mekechnie, the senior brother in the well-known firm here, who has at no small effort brought the attention of outsiders to the splendid opportunitis awaiting enterprise. G00btu'relsaday, or he." of it, would forman enterprise to be proud of and we heartily wish Mr. Read and his capitalists may find it as be believe it will he, to their interest to proceed forthwith, He thinks there is tsutr1cienr material here to warrant the establishment of a. mill with a. all-barrel inlay capacity, while Shallow Lake at present, with a capacity of 300 barrels had until last year only 150 barrels capacity. Mr, S. G. Read, a business man of Brantford for many years. and at present acting Mayor. value up last Friday and left Tuesday morning. In company with Mr. Neil Mekechnie he visited the numerous places in this locality where marl beds are found, not only adjoining Durham, but. into Glen- elg and Eglemont as far MS Wilder's Lake where. " very huge extent of the stutf is found. Mr. Read says this locality iu the) best district he has yet seen as regards 3 both quantity and quality of this val-': uable natural resource, and he will have i no hesitation in speaking favorably of} it ton Bmntford syndicate of capital-i ists who have for many years placedl eonfldenee in Mr. Head's judgement of 1 likely enterprises. I Last week and this has new steps tuba which may lead in the near future to the establishment of Cement works here. Giving a majority of 20t for the Loan atid [m for Exemption. There were 10 spoiled ballots. N. Wtttxl E. Ward W. Ward To this end we hope the best business men of the town will lend their advice and their energies to start wisely and maintain prosperously, the institution of a furniture factory in this place. The following is the vote: LOAN. EXEMP. For Ag. For Ag. Now, that the test of public feeling has been made, and the preponderance of sentiment in favor of the course of the council in granting a loan. has been shown, we hope the necessary steps will at once be taken to inaugurate the concern, and that with all due caution and cir'cuttisiwction the council and the srockluslders-an Durhamitos -tnay pro- eeed with the matter in such a way as to safeguard the town and advance its interests. ( We are much pleased to have to re- (port the figures given below which show that the vast majority of the peo- ple in this town have accepted the plan of giving municipal aid by way of loan to the founding of an industry among us. As will be Been there are a few ratepayers who have not that faith, and who have had the courage to re- cord their votes against the principle. of the thing, for we cannot believe that the votes indicate opposition to the in- dustry. Many who voted for the loan, did so, not that they were enamored of the principle, but that it seemed the only alternative to having no factory at all in the town.
