Amongst the miss-‘ in: ,we notice the name of “Miss M. Grier, nurse, of Creelman, Sask., last heard of on {Lorne street.” As Creehnan is the home of Mrs. Grier, formerly of Priceville, ”and later of Dundalk, and her daughter, Miss Nathalie Grier, was a professional nurse, the report will cause anx- iety in this locality.

It is quite true the site is not quite so near the busi- ness centre as some of the other lots named, but taking its relation to the school into consideration. it The lot chosen has all the Gm- eznment 1equi1ements.It is a c0rne1 lot, and the building erect- ed thereon will be quite isolated. Isolation is desired in a Govern- ment building, as the Government Work of Construction not Likely to Commence before next Year. It seems that the Government has decided to erect the new post office on the Edge property, oppo- isite Mr Laidlaw’s residence. On :Th‘ursday of last week. Mr. Arm- tstrong, a Government Engineer. flooked over the situation, and se- 'cured all possible data. for the 'benefit of the architect in getting ?out the plans and specifications. 5311‘. Armstrong considered the site 'first-class in every respect. and rwe have his permission to express 'that opinion. For some time there ’has been little or nothing said ialvout the post-office, but since {Mr. Armstrong’s visit, a murmur. *of dissatisfaction is again heard. Up to the present time, we have not advocated the site selected. more than to say that “it is the. liest in town, off the main street." This same site is the one that would have been preferred, had the Laurier Government remained in power. We are not making this statement without good reasons. and anything so far said to the contrary has not shaken our belief. Mr. Armstrong tells us that in many places they prefer the postâ€" office on a side street. and away somewhat from the business thor- oughfare. In Owen Sound. the new postâ€"office is a block or two. from Pculette street, which all acquainted with the tonvn know to be the principal Business thor- oughfare.
