picked up in markham village about ten days ago and placed in the brierbush hospital stouffville for treatment our southern village is not expected to entertain all guests in this manner but this unfortunate sort of fell by the wayside and was so exhausted he couldnt proceed evidently the treatment at the hospital was beneficial for on satur day the road monge r under pretex ot going out for n bit of exercise completely vanished hospital authorities notified constable pugh who discovered that the markham guest had been last seen getting in to a passing auto for a lift to parts unknown mr good said tho strangers condition was not good enough for him to be released for a few days but evidently his rambl ing instinct would not permit him to remain here longer there may have been a little flurry here on main street the other morning when it was whispered about that a c rurkholder had just hurried down the street with a contraption resembling a horse pistol under his arm guesses all the way from suggesting that the burglary alarm system had gone off in his office in the shaw block to one that he might be walking in his sleep were being made it was all satisfactorily explained however when the genial a c revealed that the old horse pistol was being trotted out for purposes of registra tion in connection with the new act in that behalf rev w e smalley pastor of the markham sixth line church was called to owen sound on monday to officiate at the funeral of an old friend mr smalley made the return trip in one day in his automobile travelling the entire journey of 250 miles without any difficulty return ing home especially the roads were particularly free of snow due to the ood work of the snow plows this 3 a real record for winter travel to make such a long trip north in mid- season and indicates how the pro vince is serving the motorist iu providing ail year round highways up to last saturday constable alt pugh had issued 44 revolver and pistol licenses some of our resi dents bring in very crude imple ments of warfare for registration among the most curious we saw was a vest pocket size a short revolver just four inches long from the butt to end of the barrel it is the proper ty of the town electrician nelson byer who has possessed it since his boyhood days the revolver shoots a 22 shot and was found in the garden on the martin wideman farm south of dickson hill it was picked up there over 50 years ago and had evidently been the property of one of the pioueer settlers in the district who brought it from the old laud there are no marks on the peculiar shooting iron to indicate tho maker or country of origin however the wideman farm was probably settled on a century ago or more and it necessarily follows that the re volver is of ancient vintage barley there is some activity in this grain but the price has remained about the same on account of the lower freight rate which the canadian west has into the markets of st paul and chicago if we are able to keep our quality of barley up to the standard we have shipp ed there will be very little harm with this reduction to our barley at the prevailing prices oats this grain is due for a long pull there are heavy de liveries in other parts of the country through this sec tion few oats have been sent to the market there will be heavy deliveries later on which will have a tendency to hold the market steady buckwheat it is getting to the lime of the year when buck wheat should be put on the market there has been a small raise in the market and we are in a position to take any

while not intended to resemble tho established custom of legal courts it does follow them to some extent in all courts as tho presiding judge appears in tho court room all counsel and everybody in the court must rise to his feet until his lordship reaches his seat and sits down tho opening of tho church service is to be some thing similar when the speaker or minister for the service appears at the accustomed door in which he enters to the pulpit the congrega tion take it as a tip to rise and they remain so as the doxology is begun when the preacher reaches the sacred desk in the courts this custom of all rising when the presiding judge appears is a mark of respect not only to the presiding jurist but is a tokon of submission to the laws of the land likewise wo take it that when the minister is paid similar homage it is not only a mark of respect for the cloth but should be a token of our sub mission and adoration for the one in whoso behalf the speaker is about to plead walkerton times something of a protest was raised at the town council on monday night when reeve clancy announced that he had been approached by a local doctor and asked to see that provision was made by the municipality for gett ing an expectant mother here ad mitted shortly to the hospital as the family are on relief the question arose about providing hospitaliza tion for the mother in the home while many others who aro paying their way wouldnt consider con tracting the expense ot such institu tional treatment the doctor however in the in digent case states that lie is giving his services free and that he should- nt be expected to travel a long lis- t tance through the snow and put tip with the drawhacks in such a home when the conveniences and assist i anco in the hospital are available to him this is an angle ho claims that councils dont take cognizance i of and he asks that medical men who are doing the work free gratis lie given more consideration by pub- 1 lie bodies iu
