The court held that jewelry which helun^ed to the late judge's first wife .-hould jfi' to his brother, Uavid T. VVrifrht of Dundalk. The pold medal which the late Justice Wright won when a school student at Ospoode Hall law school ia to go to W. D. U'rijjrht, nephew of Owen Sound. According to affidavits filed, the estate of the late judge, including his residence on Parkwood Avenue, To- ronto, valued at $1.'>.000, only realiz- ed $29,86.1. The auestion was wheth- er in view of the fa,t of the estate being insufficient to pay money lig acles in full, the legacy to the widow > hould abate proportionately. N. W. Rowell, K.C., for the widow, ^uccessful!y argued that if a widow c-ares to take a legacy instead of dow- 1 I- she is preferred beneficiary. J. C, McRuer, K.C., for Uavid T. AVright. brother of the testator, argued that the Toronto property was mortgaged !)efore Justice Wright's setond mar- riaire so that all he had in it wat c-<|uity of redemption and the widow had no right of dower.

Miss V'elma Fisher has returned home from Toronto after completing a course in finger waving and mar- celling. The Women's In.^titute will meet at the home of Mrs. W. A. Hawken on The news from the rural districts has recently contained many stories of presentations to school teachers who are leaving to teach In other schools, or "to enter the holy bonds of matrimony" (as the presentation addresses put it.) We note not only the presentations and fine gifts that have been handed out to many of the teachers, but we also read with par- ticular intertfjt the addresses pre- pared for such occasions. Obviously the rural school teachc-v occupies a very important place in thi community. She may become just about t'le most importari'. parson in it though, financiully, some of the land- owners comphtfcly overshiidow her. But the teacher has an influence which few others possess. It isn't only that she teaches the young That is only a small part of tha rura' teacher's work. She has a good edu- cation. She ranks with the minister when it comes to looking aftei- ihf local library or the more important entertainments, such as amateui plays. She has the energy to organ- ize all kinds of local amusements, in jluiiing the annual Christmas concert and the June picnic. Because she i.= often the best looking lady in the sec- tion, she can persuade the men to help out with those matters, when theii own wives or their own mothers or si.^- tors are helpless. Because she livec in the city recently, while she attend- ed normal, she probably sets the fash- ion for the girls of her part of the township, though she may be the des- pair of the othar girls at the dances or when her box bringo tlie hijrh bid at the box social. In fact", so num- erous are her dutlts that it's a wonder she finds time to teach. all, and yet,, in spite of these handicaps, she man- ages six or eight ditferent classes, covering all the work from the primei to the entrance class,, and not infre- quently, her brighter schojars stand up with the best from the town schools when they pass the entrance tests. It's no wonder the country teacher leaves a big, vacant spot when she leaves the section, and that's why she is presented with complimentary addresses and floor lamps or library tables or sets of Shakespeare's work and other things befitting highly edu- cated persons. â€" Ex. It HAPPENS to ALL OF US Typogi-aphical en'ors are often very funny and frequently get by the eagle eyes of the proof-reader. Ju-5t last week we smiled when we read in oui nearest city daily an account of a wedding which said the lady wore "large mittens and slippers to mat.h." Imagine any bride being accused of wearing "large" mittens. Someone had blundered and we had reason to know the correspondent had sent In "lace mittens." However, we more than smiled when we read in our own G.F.J, a joke which had gone all awry. It was intended to tell the story of the after-dinner speaker who said that 'Speeches should be like a woman's skirt â€" short enough to be intaresting, but long enou.sh to cover the subject," but horrors, when we srtw it in black and white- it read "sliirt" instead oi Skirt.
