It rained heavily un tbe Twelfth but there was not a word of complaint. It was received with thanks and twice as much would have been appreciated. Hev. Wm. Savage, a well, known Methodist divine, died at his home in Ouelph at the great »ge of 92 years. The rev. gentleman was well known in this vicinity. The farmers of the surrv-puding neigh- borhood west of Fleshertoii, held » very _.,»ttOC«ssful picnic on Friday of last week, iu Mr. Fred Brown's bush, which is an ideal and picturescjue place for picnic*. The pipe organ of the Methodist church was removed last week, in prep»ration for the iustallation ot a larger and better cne.

Dr. Shultis of Heathcuta got hid les badly fractured last week by a kick from ; a horse which he was driving. The iinimal smashed the dashboard and struck the doctor, who will be laid off from I practice for some time. Out of the 41 who tried the entrance , here this ye.ir only 28 atudents pa<>sed. ' Mr. Holland passed 11 out of the 16 who ' wrote from this schcol, and ii to be con- . gratulated on the way his papils waded _ through a very difficult and tricky exam. I The Red School and FIesherti.>n base- ball teams tried concla3ions on Tueiiday afternoon here. The Utter team was so ' hoggish with the score that the elements I interfered and rain stopped the game I after tw^ innings, with Flesherton in the lead-12-3. I Secretary Bellamy of the high school board informs us that he has had fift.en I application* for the vacancy caused by Miss Chidley's retirement. This does not look as though thsrn is a great scarc- ity of teachers. Other secretaries and the number of teachers advertised for tell a different story, however. Miss Mary Wilson, who has been at- tending Toronto Normal school, is re- ceivin)r congratulations these days. She passed her second class professional ex- amination, which means that she is now the proud possessor uf^ life certificate. Miss A^nes McPhail and R. Tucker of Ceylon were also successful in the same examination. The latcer two wrote at Stratford. .About 2o young men at eleven o'clock on Monday night held a ptrade around town, garbed iu night shirts and pyjamas and armed with meat horns, and other very musical implements. After march- ing around for an hour and pruiucin<( the most dismal melodies (supposed tu be 12(h of July selections we presume) the midnight revellers disbanded lad allowed the citizens once mora to return to their disturbed dreams. Mr. .Andrew Graham of the Valley re- turned List week from the vicinity of Saskatoon. Sosk., where he hss been for some time. Mr. Grahim says he saw many farmers plowing down their crops. Owing t'j drouth spring crops shot cut when a foot high. The rains which have been quite general over the west during the past week did not come in time to be i.'f much use to the crops in many places. In so effott to icare the midnight r«v- elleri on the ni^ht of July U (.»r pos- sibly to add to the din) John H»le« fired off a double barrelled shot gun into the air. The gun blewup and in the result- ing fracas Mr. Hales was burned on the wrist by the escaping powder. .\ pain- ful bhtck burn now remains to help him remember that guns are not to be exacily pUyed with. Hereafter he will use a 5c pistol and shoot paper caps to CHUsa any commotion ho wishes to raise. It may' not be quite so sensational, but is certainly more safe. Most things have a limit, but the diffi- culty is to locate it sometimes. The Advance Man is beginning to wonder when the wheat and barley in this district are going to stop growing. We have been handed fall wheat six feet, eight inches long, and now Walter Akitt drops in with barley five feet, four inches loni?. The old childhood yarn of Jack-and-tbe beau-stalk bid* fair to be enacted io tbia district with wheat and barley replacing the dwarfish corn. Flesherton may claim to have one of the youngest senior baseball teams in this districtâ€" or a great many others, f< t that matter. The boys who played the grey-bsaJed Ravenna men at Feversham laat week ranKed in ages from 16 to 86. Four ware only 16, and seven war* 20 or under. The pitcher generally has a shock when he see* 16-year-old Harold Hit«h*ll stuck up beside the plate with a bat in hi* haitd, and says to himself " Here's a victim. " But when there i* a rasouading smack and a ^bagger is knocked out the pitcher i« wise, and next time ha comes up Mitchell gels a base on ball* ; and the way Bob. Bellaoiy eats up "flies" in the field is enough to give hiiu dyspepsia. Aoothtr 16-year-old, Russel Gee, pitched most of the innings, and Fletcher, still another ''sweet sixteen." finished the game. The using uf th s« youthful ball tosaers is not altogether a niatier of necessity. The young chap?, aa a rule, put up a better game th^ lots of the older ones, and to theut i^K'partly due the large list of victorias io^^>asel>aU this year. The sy.Uein of a>:lltag all vegetables and o'rocerirs by weight, according to the L..-thbridxe Herald, is crowing iu Wsai- ern Canada, and it might move east with greater advantage to consumrrs. The other day in Cleveland fdur hundred of the best gn>cery stores inaugurated the plan of selling all vegetables by weight. This sction of the grocers was due to the recognition of the public deni.Aud by the Grocers' As«ocitti<>n. Why (hould a person pay .is much fui a duzen nmall egg* as fur a dozen of a larger size ?
