Too Much Cleverness One of the sad things in our men- tal make-up is that in everything we| do we gather way slowly anditheni when we reach the top we peter out, I said Dr. Currelly in beginning his ad- dress. This, he explained, is because the workman becomes too contented` and begins to show off. The period of the world s worst work in art has] also been the period of the clevergst work, and `that is true also of our _.homes.' `Simple pieces of furniture of a period of growth bring prices of j from $5,000 to $10,000 today, while. i thecleverest pieces can be purchased for a song. l TX7`kn .~.

Instead, a journment of the meeting was made, after reports had been adopted, until Jan. 15. This action was taken owing to the large decit under which the hospital is laboring and for which the Town Council has been, asked to raise funds. By the date specied in the adjournment, it will be seen whether the 1925 Coun- `cil, by by-law, as a result of a vote of the ratepayers, or otherwise, is prepared to give the relief asked for.
